"Oh, girl, you are finally here today. I miss you after not seeing you for so long." Shopkeeper Tong poured tea for Wang Ruixue and Wang Zifu.

"Zifu, don't be restrained. Treat this place as your home." Shopkeeper Tong was relieved to see that Zifu was nervous.

"Hey," Wang Zifu nodded with a smile, but his trembling hands betrayed him.

Seeing that Wang Zifu was nervous, Wang Ruixue said with a smile: "Brother, why don't you go see Uncle Li."

Wang Zifu's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Hey, I'll go right now." After saying that, he ran away as if running away.

Wang Ruixue held the teacup and took a sip. "I just went to your house to pay New Year greetings. Why don't I stop by to see you? I heard from Aunt Liao that you are very busy. I was wondering if I would disturb you."

"Hey, as long as you are here, I will make time no matter how busy I am." Shopkeeper Tong put down the teacup and took out a box of pastries from the drawer, "Try it, little girl. This is a gift from a guest. I think it's delicious. I left it especially for you." He opened it for her thoughtfully.

Wang Ruixue was moved. She looked at the pink pastry, reached for a piece of pastry, and put it into her mouth. Well, it melted in her mouth, with a faint fragrance, and her eyes flashed with surprise, "It's so delicious."

Seeing that Wang Ruixue likes it, shopkeeper Tong's face lights up with a smile, and his eyes are full of excitement and love. "If you like it, take it home and eat it slowly."

"Hey, you're welcome then." Wang Ruixue wrapped the pastry and took it away later.

"Girl, when will this cassava be available? Nowadays, the wood bamboo cake and pearl milk tea are about to be out of stock. Now our store only sells them in limited quantities." Shopkeeper Tong looked a little sad.

"Mr. Shen has a lot of connections, but he doesn't have many connections in other places?" Wang Ruixue asked doubtfully.

Shopkeeper Tong shook his head, "I've searched all over, but if you don't know, you almost hollowed out the mountain. Now most of the Wei Kingdom knows about cassava."

"The cassava in the field will be harvested in four months." Wang Ruixue calculated the time.

When shopkeeper Tong got the answer he wanted, his sadness disappeared immediately, "Then I'll make some plans and try my best to wait until the cassava is ripe."

I said goodbye to shopkeeper Tong, bought some grain and vegetables, and took the bullock cart home.

When she got home and saw a lot of things at home, Wang Ruixue was shocked, "Mom, where did they come from?"

Yao categorized the things, "People from the village came to pay New Year's greetings as gifts."

Hearing this, Wang Ruixue was moved and relieved, as she knows how to repay kindness.

Three days later, all the uncle's family came to pay New Year's greetings. Except for the grandfather and grandmother, they were not here. They were old and could not travel far easily. Wang Ruixue felt heartbroken and felt a little lost.

Wang Ruixue took her cousin to play in her room.

Wang Zilu took his cousin to the village to play with friends.

Xia took Yao aside and said mysteriously: "Sister, I asked my aunt privately to find out. Yang Tu has two sons and a daughter. Now the eldest son and the second son have married. That family has good character. , I’m just a bit poor, but this marriage is reliable and we can get married.”

When Mrs. Yao heard this, her brows suddenly lit up with joy, and then she looked a little sad, "I think that girl hasn't even reached the age of hair extensions yet, and this boy is several years older than her..." Before Mrs. Yao could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mrs. Xia.

"Oh, my sister, you don't have to worry at all," Mrs. Xia didn't know what Mrs. Yao was thinking, but she was actually worried about Zifu's age.

"Your family has an advantage in terms of conditions. It is the envy of everyone in Shiliba Village. You don't despise his family for being poor. There is no reason for his family to despise Zifu for his age. Believe it or not, as long as you let the word out, many people will definitely You don’t need any bride price, just send the girl to your home.”

When Yao heard this, she felt happy and said, "Hey, it's such a gift. Then I will choose a festival another day and let the matchmaker propose the marriage. First, I will settle on the girl, and we will get married when she is old enough."

"Sister, doesn't Yang Tu work at your house? Ask your brother-in-law to ask him directly in private. If he agrees, he can propose the marriage directly," Xia reminded.

"Hey, look, sister is really confused right now," Yao said, patting his head. He was so nervous that he was talking for the first time.

In the afternoon, Yao Wenwen said she would stay and play for a few days. Seeing that her sister was staying, Yao Dongbao didn't leave and wanted to play for a few days.

Helpless, before leaving, Xia told her two siblings to be obedient and not to be naughty.

Wang Zifu drove an ox cart to see his uncle and aunt off, but the two elderly people in the family were worried.

Just as the ox cart left here, another carriage came.

When the carriage approached, the curtain was opened by a pair of jade hands, and Tong Jiayu's voice came, "Sister Ruixue, Sister Ruixue." The tone was full of excitement.

Ms. Liao patted Tong Jiayu on the back, smiled and scolded: "You girl, you don't have the restraint of a daughter's family at all. How did your mother teach you?"

Tong Jiayu curled her lips and retorted, "Mom, there aren't that many etiquettes here."

Wang Ruixue was pleasantly surprised and ran over, "Sister Jiayu."

When the carriage stopped, Tong Jiayu couldn't wait to jump out of the carriage. Liao's worried voice came from behind, "Slow down, kid."

"Sister Ruixue, I've finally seen you. I didn't even know you went to pay New Year's greetings last time. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone to my aunt's house." Tong Jiayu held Wang Ruixue's hand affectionately and was very excited.

Wang Ruixue patted her hand and said, "It's okay. This is not a meeting."

"Oh, this is my first time here. Your house is so elegant." Mrs. Liao admired when she saw the house.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mrs. Liao. It's been a hard journey. Come in and sit down." Mr. Yao stepped forward to greet her.

"Hey, what are you calling Mrs. Liao? It seems a bit unfamiliar. You are younger than me. If you don't mind, I will call you sister." Mrs. Liao took Yao's hand affectionately and said.

"Oh, then I'm really lucky to be worthy of being your sister." Mrs. Yao pulled Mrs. Liao into the house.

"Aunt Liao," Wang Zilu called out politely.

"Hey," Liao responded enthusiastically.

Mrs. Liao saw Yao Wenwen and Yao Dongbao, "Who are these two children?"

"Sister Liao, these are my brother's children," Yao Dongbao said to Yao Wenwen, "Wenwen, Dongbao, call me aunt."

Yao Wenwen and Yao Dongbao were a little shy, but they boldly called out, "Auntie, Auntie."

"Hey," Mrs. Liao smiled and nodded, not forgetting to praise, "these two children are so handsome."

After entering the house, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Liao were chatting in the main room.

Wang Ruixue took Tong Jiayu to her room and called Yao Wenwen too.

"Sister Ruixue, your room is so clean," Tong Jiayu couldn't help but admire, and even sat on the bed and moved. Well, it was softer than her bed.

"If you like, why not stay and play for a few days." Wang Ruixue suggested.

"Hey, that's a good suggestion. I'll tell my mother about it later." Tong Jiayu was very excited at the thought of staying.

Yao Wenwen sat next to her, holding her handkerchief solemnly, and glanced at her cousin's sister with envy in her eyes. She knew from her dress that her family was well off.

Wang Ruixue walked over, took Yao Wenwen's hand, and introduced to Tong Jiayu, "Sister Jiayu, this is my cousin."

Tong Jiayu walked over with a smile and took Yao Wenwen's hand, "My sister is so pretty. I saw her just now. You are Ruixue's cousin, so naturally you are also my sister. My sister is here today, so I didn't know you were here."

As she said this, she took off the bracelet and said, "This bracelet is a gift for you."

Yao Wenwen was flattered and quickly refused, "I can't do that, sister, it's too expensive."

"Hey, sister is worthy of the gift from sister. Don't refuse, otherwise, sister will be angry." He couldn't help but put the bracelet on her hand.

Looking at Yao Wenwen's rough little hands full of scars, Tong Jiayu felt a little distressed. Her mother said that farm girls had to help the family when they could walk. I guess her hands were always working.

"Hehe, she's so beautiful. Sister Ruixue, look, how suitable she is." Tong Jiayu held Yao Wenwen's hand without any objection.

Yao Wenwen's sallow complexion was like a tomato, her eyes were very moved, and she didn't dislike her hands at all.

At night, Mrs. Liao went back by herself, while Tong Jiayu stayed and would pick her up tomorrow.

The three sisters slept together at night and were indescribably happy.

Tong Jiayu gave the gift she brought to Wang Ruixue, which was a jade bracelet. The jade bracelet was as clear as clear water and as smooth as silk. Wang Ruixue liked it very much.

Yao Wenwen broadened her horizons again, and was shocked. The jade bracelet was very valuable, and she made up her mind. She wanted to follow her cousin in the future, and she could learn and see a lot of things.
