By noon, the sun was getting bigger and hotter.

In fact, the porcini mushrooms, which originally looked fresh and plump, have shrunk a lot after being exposed to the sun.

There was one basket left that hadn’t been sold, so Su Xiaoxue wasn’t going to rush.

She said to her parents, "You should go and rest first. There are fewer people shopping for groceries now anyway."

Su's mother replied: "It's okay, as much as we can sell is good."

"No, it's not easy to sell here anyway, and hairpins will be more convenient in the afternoon when people are shopping. Let's go eat something and rest first. There happens to be a place nearby where we can rest for a while."

Under Su Xiaoxue's arrangement, the family packed up their things and went to eat something first.

The two elders were reluctant to spend money, so we just had to eat the porridge they brought to make ends meet.

Su Xiaoxue was unwilling to do so. "That won't work. We still have to stay here for another day and won't be back until very late. We can't eat anything casually, especially Dad. You haven't recovered from your illness yet, so we can't be careless."

After she finished speaking, she asked the family to follow her to a restaurant.

The restaurant serves soup rice noodles, which are served with vegetables, meatballs and barbecued pork.

A bowl of noodles costs 1 cent, and adding meat costs 15 cents.

When the two elders heard this, they immediately felt that it was too expensive.

Su Xiaoxue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's not expensive at all, it's very cheap."

Then she went straight to the boss and said, "I want five bowls of barbecued pork noodles. Give me more barbecued pork. I'll give you an extra five cents."

The boss nodded, "Okay!"

The money was given by Su Xiaoxue, so the other people in the Su family didn't know about it.

When the barbecued pork noodles were served, the unique soup and the barbecued pork made everyone drool with the aroma.

The barbecued pork was fried in oil and then cut into thin slices. It was fragrant and delicious.

Mother Su couldn't help but say, "There's so much barbecued pork, a full bowl."

Su Xiaoxue just smiled and said nothing.

After eating, everyone took a short rest before heading towards the place Su Xiaoxue mentioned.

The place she was talking about was actually a small park with a forest and stone benches. There were few people in it at this time, but the scenery was nice and it was quiet, making it a convenient place to rest.

Mother Su smiled and said, "This place is nice and quiet. Let's take a rest here."

"Ah."

Seeing that the porcini mushrooms were a little wilted, Su's mother felt a little regretful, "It seems that these porcini mushrooms will shrink after being exposed to the sun for a while."

After all, a basket weighs more than 20 kilograms, and one kilogram costs 50 cents. If there are two kilograms less, it will be one dollar.

Su Xiaoxue laughed and said, "It's okay. We've already sold a lot today, so this is not a big deal. If we run out of stock later, we can send some to the Qin family."

When Su's mother heard this, she waved her hands and said, "That's not good. The porcini have shrunk."

Su Xiaoxue laughed. Dried porcini mushrooms can be eaten just the same. They are just dried in the sun. Once soaked in water, they will return to their original state.

She had not originally planned to give anything as a gift. After all, she had to bring something with her when she went to the Qin family to make it more formal.

Here you have to sell things as early as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to sell them after that time.

Of course, after everything is sold out, Su Xiaoxue doesn't plan to go. At worst, she can just give it to him next time, or exchange it for some fruit, meat, etc.

I just happened to be free now, so I planned to bring some food to visit the two kids, and give them some of these porcini mushrooms to try.

"Then... do you really want to send it over?" Su's mother asked.

Su Xiaoxue nodded.

When Xiao Ni heard this, she immediately said, "Sister, I want to go with you too! I want to go too!"

Su Xiaoxue laughed, "Okay, okay, you go too."

She looked at Erni again, and before Erni could speak, "Erni, why don't you come with me? I'll show you around."

After all, it was just a casual gift, so Su's parents didn't plan to go, otherwise it would seem too formal.

Moreover, the owner of the Su family is not at home now, as they have all gone to work.

Su Xiaoxue thought that the Qin family might only have the nanny and two children at home now!

They were in this park, not too far from the Qin family.

Su Xiaoxue rode a bicycle with her two younger sisters, and then went to buy some fruits and meat before heading towards Qin Chi's house.

Along the way, Xiao Ni kept chattering about the situation at the Qin family.

Su Xiaoxue only said that their house was quite big.

When the three siblings arrived at the door of Qin's house, the two sisters looked at the scene in amazement.

"Sister, this... is this the home of my future brother-in-law?" Xiao Ni asked.

Su Xiaoxue nodded, "Yes, it's his house."

"Wow...it's so big and tall. How big is this house?"

Although there is a lot of land in the countryside, people have little money, so the houses are not big. For example, the older generation still lived in mud houses, a small house where the whole family lived, ate and drank in the same room, and the bed boards were all put together for the whole family to sleep.

By their generation, although the living conditions had improved a little, they still only had a small house, which was considered enough to live in. This was the first time they had seen a two- or three-story building like this one.

Both Erni and Xiaoni were shocked by the scene before them.

They couldn't even understand why their cousin would give up such a good Qin family and choose the Zhao family? After all, the choice between the two families was in her hands.

"Let's go and knock on the door first." Su Xiaoxue reminded.

The three of them walked forward, arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and knocked on the big iron gate.

"Is anyone there?" Su Xiaoxue asked.

Soon, a person holding a child came out of the house. It was Aunt Mei, holding Xiaobao in her arms.

Seeing Su Xiaoxue, Aunt Mei was also a little surprised, “You…why are you here?”

Su Xiaoxue smiled at her and said, "I just happened to come to the county town to give you something."

"Oh, what should I do?" Aunt Mei said, putting the child down and saying, "Mr. Qin hasn't come back yet."

Su Xiaoxue smiled and said, “It’s okay. I’ll just send something and not look for him.”

The gate of the yard opened, Su Xiaoxue looked inside, her eyes fell on Xiaobao lying on the ground.

Xiaobao was also looking at her. The last time they met, Xiaobao liked this future mother very much.

But he has always been shy. Even if he sees someone he likes, he doesn't dare to go up to them and just stares at them blankly.

Su Xiaoxue smiled at him, "You are Xiaobao, right?"

Xiaobao nodded, "Yeah."

Su Xiaoxue waved at him again, "Come here!"

Xiaobao hesitated for a moment and then walked towards his future mother.

Su Xiaoxue asked Aunt Mei first, "Can I hold him?"

"Sure, sure." Aunt Mei nodded quickly. "The two children often ask Mr. Qin when you will come home. They miss you."

As soon as Aunt Mei said this, Xiaobao's cheeks turned red, and he was obviously shy.

After Su Xiaoxue confirmed it, she handed the things to her two younger sisters and picked up the little treasure in front of her.

When Xiaobao was held in the arms of his future mother, his face suddenly froze and he looked at her nervously, but with joy in his heart.

Seeing his tense face, Su Xiaoxue smiled and said to him, "Don't be afraid, Auntie likes Xiaobao very much."

Hearing this, Xiaobao's eyes suddenly lit up.

He didn't say anything, but subconsciously put his arms around Su Xiaoxue's neck.

After all, Su Xiaoxue had interacted with children before and knew how they expressed their likes.

Although Xiaobao is shy, his actions cannot deceive anyone.

Seeing this, Aunt Mei said happily: "Xiaobao likes you very much."

As he said that, he quickly asked them to go into the house first, "Xiaoguai is still inside."
