Siheyuan: Selling antiques? Only making 28,000 RMB from 30,000 RMB

After the two of them finished these things and were about to go back, the deaf old lady heard voices outside, so she came out to see what was going on. It turned out to be Zhou Dong and Fatty Liu.

"Young man, can you two do me a favor? The weather is so cloudy that it's going to rain soon, so I want to pack up the things that were dried a few days ago today?"

"Oh, what is an old man? Can you tell me?"

"It's wheat or something like that that's been dried. Sha Zhu said the wheat was infested with worms, so he wanted to dry it outside. But I didn't expect that Sha Zhu hadn't gotten off work at this time today. Do you think I can be less anxious now?"

After hearing what the other party said, Zhou Dong said that since that was the case, the two of them would help her put these things away.

The two of them talked as they packed their things.

But at this time, Zhou Dong suddenly had a question for the deaf old lady, asking where she got so much wheat.

When the deaf old lady heard what he said, she laughed before she said anything.

"Where else could I get it from? Look, this was not when the wheat was yellow. I went out to pick it up. This happened many years ago. If the wheat was placed next to me now, I certainly wouldn't be able to do it. Look, I am walking very strangely now. How can I still go out to pick up wheat?"

"I say, old lady, you are in very good health. Look at those people who are about your age. They are all gone now, but you are still in such good health. You should be content."

"What's good about that? Now I'm just an old loser. I eat a lot all day and can't do any work. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother you two to help me pick up the wheat."

"What's the big deal? It's just a small job. Even if the two of us don't help you, I believe there will be other kids willing to help you. Because it's not very tiring at all, so it's not really a job at all. You really don't need to take it to heart."

After Zhou Dong said these words, he asked Fatty Liu to get to work quickly, otherwise if it rained, all the wheat would be thrown away.

"Yes, yes. Why don't you hurry up and do it? If you were to hurry up and do it, how could you have the energy to talk?"

"I'm telling you, even though I'm talking, it doesn't affect my work. Look, my hands haven't stopped working."

"Zhou Dong, I want to ask you something. Where did He Yuzhu go today? It's so dark now, why hasn't he come back yet? Did he know that it would be cloudy today? So he didn't plan to come back? Because if he did that, he would have wasted a lot of effort."

"I'm telling you you can't say that. I think there's nothing wrong with Zhuzi's character. Something must have happened, otherwise he would have come back a long time ago. Otherwise, why don't we wait for him to come back and ask him?"

"Okay, okay, in that case, let's harvest the wheat quickly. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will rain soon."

We were harvesting wheat while talking when we heard someone talking outside. It seemed to be He Yuzhu who came back.

"Don't you two have anything else to do today? Why did you think of helping the old lady pick up the wheat?"

"How could we have nothing to do? We are not three-year-old children anymore, nor are we adults. Even if we are free, we must have some things to do. But now, when we came back, we ran into an old lady. She said it was cloudy and she was afraid it would rain soon, so she asked us to help her harvest the wheat. How could we not help her?"

"Yes, thank you two so much, you two are so sensible. I came back a long time ago, and I met a friend on the way, and then we chatted for a while. When we were chatting, I forgot about this matter, otherwise, I would have harvested the wheat by now."

"It's okay, it's okay. If you have something to do, go ahead and do it first. I don't think this is a big job at all." Zhou Dong said.

After Zhou Dong finished saying these words, he remained silent.

"You two should clean up this thing today, then have dinner at our house this afternoon, right?"

"Let me tell you, Brother Zhuzi, everything about you is good except this one thing. You are too polite. What's the problem?" Zhou Dong said.

After Zhou Dong finished saying these words, he went back with Fatty Liu.

They didn't go. At this time, Zhou Dong thought that what he said today had helped the deaf old lady. Although it was not a big favor, he always felt that what he said today was not very good.

"How can you say such things to me? You helped her so much, and she can't even thank you enough. Why don't you feel satisfied with the favor you did for her? Do you have something else to say? If you have something to say, please tell me now. If you don't, I won't know."

Zhou Dong said that when the two of them were helping the old lady harvest the wheat, there was a lot of mud and sand in the wheat because the wheat was spread out on the ground to dry. However, when the two of them were harvesting the wheat, they did not use a sieve to sift out the mud and sand because they were in a hurry.

"You were thinking about this question. I think it's nothing. After all, my old lady doesn't use the wheat to eat it, but to sell it. So it doesn't matter whether there is sand or not. More importantly, it was about to rain and time was tight, so there was no time for that."

"I don't agree with your statement. Although the old lady is here to sell the wheat, if everyone sells wheat containing sand, then those who harvest the wheat will lose everything, right?"
