Only this green, not disappointing the spring

It was sunset when the two of them finished all their work.

Li Dali's stomach growled loudly, and he felt a little embarrassed. He just missed a meal, why was he so hungry?

Zhou Xiaoxi was very considerate and pretended not to hear it. He ran to the bun shop and spent twenty cents to buy a meat bun and three vegetarian buns.

She didn't mean to save money, it's just that she couldn't eat fat in her previous life, and she couldn't change it after traveling through time and space.

But Li Dali didn't know. He took a big bite and was eating with relish when he realized that what his niece was eating was actually vegetarian!

A mouthful of bun was stuck in my throat and I couldn't spit it out or swallow it, and my whole face turned red.

Zhou Xiaoxi was so frightened that she thought her uncle was choking, so she quickly asked the bun seller for a bowl of water.

In desperation, Li Dali had to drink some water before he spoke:

"Little girl Xiaoxi, how can you give me meat buns and eat vegetarian food yourself? If your grandmother knew about this, she would beat me till my skin was torn to pieces!"

Zhou Xiaoxi burst out laughing.

"Don't worry, little uncle. I won't complain to my grandmother. I'm not that hungry. It's you who will have to push me home later. It's too hard. This meat bun is my filial piety to you!"

Hehehe...a niece is also a daughter, there is not much difference.

Li Dali continued to eat the buns with a silly smile, but what he was thinking in his heart was that he must give Xiaoxi girl a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year!

At this moment, Zhou Xiaonan's clear voice came over:

"Sister, uncle, you are here! I finally found you!"

The little girl was sweating from running, her face flushed, her eyes narrowed when she smiled, and there was a dimple on each side of her cheek.

Every time Zhou Xiaoxi sees her sister smile like this, she thinks of the cute and soft kitten.

Then he couldn't help rubbing the little girl's head until a tuft of fluff flew out, and then he let go embarrassedly.

Zhou Xiaonan had long been accustomed to her sister's hobby, and was not annoyed, allowing Zhou Xiaoxi to ravage her head.

Zhou Xiaoxi finally stopped and coughed awkwardly before asking,

"How did you find me and my uncle?"

"I guessed that you would go to Shangpin Pavilion to deliver the handkerchief that mother embroidered. Mother was so anxious at the time that she must have finished the work early, so I went to Shangpin Pavilion first. The shopkeeper told me that you had just left for a while, so I tried to look for it nearby, and then I found it easily!"

After the little girl finished speaking, she opened her eyes wide, her face full of anticipation.

Zhou Xiaoxi had already figured out her sister's temperament, so she handed her a bun and praised her:

"Our Xiao Nan is getting smarter! I'll give you a steamed bun as a reward."

Zhou Xiaonan couldn’t bear to eat it!

She ate and slept with Zhang Jiaojiao every day. Although they had never eaten any delicacies, they had fish and meat every day.

On the contrary, for her sister, even eating an egg is a luxury in the countryside.

"Sister, I'm not hungry. I'll go back to Zhang's house for dinner soon. You and your uncle can just eat this bun."

Without waiting for Zhou Xiaoxi to say anything, Zhou Xiaonan immediately changed the subject.

"Sister, uncle, I have good news to tell you!"

Li Dali finished eating all the buns and burped.

He hadn't tasted meat for a long time, so he was very satisfied with the meal. He gently rubbed his stomach and was curious:

"Little Nan, tell me quickly. Did you go to the county magistrate's wife's place to appreciate the flowers and be praised for your beauty and sweetness?"

Zhou Xiaonan rolled her eyes. How could a country girl like her be favored by a noble man?

"It has nothing to do with me. It's the basket of pears we brought. The girls at the party all tasted them, and many of them thought they were delicious! They asked me where I bought the pears from, and they wanted to buy some more for the elders at home to taste!"

Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes lit up. This was the way to open up her network of connections!

It seems that the pears from their Dali Village are now available, no longer needing to be purchased by Mr. Yan!

She continued to ask,

"Then what did you say? How are we going to sell our pears to them?"

"I was a little confused and didn't know what to say."

Zhou Xiaonan lowered his head and twisted the corner of his clothes, feeling a little embarrassed.

"It was Sister Jiaojiao who agreed to this deal. She said that these pears are unique to our Dali Village and cannot be bought anywhere else. If anyone wants to buy them, they can pay a deposit first, and then they will be delivered to every household."

Zhou Xiaoxi really likes Zhang Jiaojiao! She has been doing her best to help their family.

I couldn't think of anything to thank her for now, so I had to keep my gratitude to myself for now. When I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay her with gratitude!

"What about the price? How much did you set?"

Zhou Xiaonan felt a little embarrassed because these things were arranged by Sister Jiaojiao and she could only act as a messenger.

"Sister Jiaojiao said that the pears people buy on a daily basis cost about ten coins per pound. Since the quality of our Dali Village is good, it is naturally more expensive. And this pear is the best quality used to make autumn pear paste, so it has to be paid according to the price for medicinal use."

"In the end, it was decided to be 60 wen per jin. They said this number sounded auspicious and nice."

Zhou Xiaoxi couldn't help laughing out loud.

Zhang Jiaojiao is really an excellent salesperson! If she was born in her previous life, even if she didn't have the good family background she has now, she would definitely be able to thrive!

Zhou Xiaoxi and his group returned to Huichuntang again. Li Dali's cart was still in the backyard, and the deposits given by the ladies at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet were still in the store.

Zhang Jiaojiao felt tired, so she sat in the clinic drinking tea while waiting for Zhou Xiaonan to come back.

Zhou Xiaoxi thanked the other party solemnly and said that he would repay him if he had the chance in the future.

Although Zhang Jiaojiao never thought about asking the Zhou family to repay her, she was very happy that what she did was taken seriously by them.

It's getting late.

The uncle and nephew said goodbye to everyone and headed towards Dali Village with a lot of harvest and excitement.

Zhou Xiaonan said nothing about her reluctance, but just stared at the two of them with a pout.

Zhang Jiaojiao put her arm around Zhou Xiaonan's shoulders like a big sister.

"Xiao Nannan, you should learn skills from my grandfather. When you make a lot of money in the future, you can bring your whole family to the city!"

Although Zhou Xiaonan was only a year younger than Zhang Jiaojiao, she was a head and a half shorter than her. She leaned on Zhang Jiaojiao's side, looking like a little bird leaning on her.

Zhou Xiaonan opened his tearful eyes and looked up at Zhang Jiaojiao, his face full of seriousness:

"Sister Jiaojiao, are you telling the truth? As long as I work hard enough, I can make a lot of money in the future?"

Zhang Jiaojiao reached out and touched the tip of her nose, wondering how to say this appropriately.

"Well, the premise is that you can learn everything my grandfather teaches you. Little Nan Nan, you have to learn things flexibly. If you just memorize them by rote, no matter how hard you try, it will be useless!"

Zhou Xiaonan nodded very seriously. She really liked studying medicine and never had to memorize anything!

From then on, the idea of ​​making a lot of money took root deeply in Zhou Xiaonan's heart.

Later, when Zhang Jiaojiao recalled what happened today, she couldn't help but sigh and say that her original intention was just not to make Xiaonan too sad.

Who would have thought that she would become a well-known money-grubber because of her words!
