Due to the big sales, more people knew about Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables. More importantly, people knew that the vegetables sold here were magical.

With the huge sale of vegetables, many people became aware of the green and fresh fruit and vegetable shops in Taoyuan Village. It could fix picky eaters and anorexic patients. It helped people sleep better and feel better.

Once the parents of the students sitting for the exam found out, they spread it among other parents. All the parents came and squeezed the store to its bursting point.

"It's only five or six days left to the university entrance exam. More people came to patronize us. Those who failed to get the vegetables went crazy and made a scene. There were even a few close fights. We can't allow this to continue." Mother Xiao said with a frown. Other vendors had to worry about not having enough stocks to sell, but they had it the other way round.

"1000 catties per day is not enough. The parents are crazy." Liu Chunhua said.

They had been selling for more than ten days already. They were used to the large crowds by now. It was common for the shop to be crowded daily.

"Yu 'Er, what should we do?" Liu Chunhua said nervously. "Even though the fights didn't really happen, they are not good for our reputation."

Xiao Lingyu frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "We'll start limiting the purchases from tomorrow!" She chose to open on the 21st because it was close to the exam.

"Limit the purchases?" The other three were shocked. Then, they nodded, "Yes, that is the most appropriate way to deal with this."

"But, Yu 'Er, how do you plan to do that?" Xiao Mingyang asked, "If you limit too much, we might have leftovers; if you limit too little, it'll not change anything."

Xiao Lingyu smiled, "Fourth uncle, even if we limit too much, there won't be leftovers." At this point, her expression became serious, "I've sat through the university entrance exam before. The students are anxious and stressed. They can't sleep or eat well. It'll affect their performance. So, what we can do is help them get through this difficult period.

"However, we have a limited supply. Every parent only wants the best for their child. They will do everything for their child. Thankfully, our vegetables will work their wonders even if the portion is small."

Mother Xiao nodded and said, "Then how much should we limit per customer each day?"

"Four catties!" Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, "They can only get four catties of vegetables each, no matter the type. We won't sell any extra."

"Okay, we'll try that tomorrow." The other three agreed unanimously.

Before they could put that into action, someone had directly driven to Taoyuan Village to buy the vegetables.

"I have to buy as many vegetables as I can to stock up. Or else, I'll be too late when I get to the shop." A fashionably-dressed mother said. "Yue 'Er is taking the exam soon. I'll cook for him daily to nourish his spirit. He will definitely do well in the exam."

Miao Fangfang thought the road to Taoyuan Village would be rough so she was surprised by the tarred road. 'Taoyuan Village is quite rich,' She thought. 'Or else why would they have a tarred road?'

Since she was unfamiliar with the drive, Miao Fangfang departed from Xing Yin County around noon but only arrived at Taoyuan Village around 2 pm. When she reached the entrance of the village, she stopped and asked a man who was herding the crows. "Hello. May I know how to get to boss Xiao's house?"
