"Oh." He nodded. "Sister, eat quickly, it's not too cold yet, it won't taste good when it gets cold."

Lin Qingyan didn't eat immediately. She looked at Lin Zhiheng and said, "Xiaoheng, you didn't go to the county town just to buy these things, did you?"

Lin Zhiheng had previously entrusted all his money to her, so the fact that he could buy these things must mean he had just earned some new money.

Lin Zhiheng scratched his head: "Sister, don't ask so many questions. The things have been bought, just eat them."

Lin Qingyan looked at the steamed buns and fried dough sticks. "Xiao Heng, you don't have any money, how did you buy these things?"

"I..." He couldn't let his sister know what he was doing, otherwise she would worry: "Sister, please don't ask. Anyway, I didn't steal or rob. I earned the money myself. I... I want to earn money to support you."

The boy was still shy and timid; after speaking, he turned his face to the side.

Lin Qingyan had no idea what Lin Zhiheng had gone to do. In this day and age, if you want to earn money through manual labor, you must have done some very strenuous physical work.

She suddenly remembered that day when they went to the county town, Lin Zhiheng stared blankly at the grain station. At the time, she thought he was curious about the grain, but now she suddenly realized that he might have been looking at the workers carrying sacks. Could it be that Lin Zhiheng was also carrying sacks there?

The little guy is very thin because he has been malnourished since childhood. How could he possibly endure that kind of work?

"Xiao Heng, we can make a normal living by working here. Let's not go to the county town to earn money anymore, okay?"

"Sis, I'm really fine. Those jobs aren't actually that tiring. If others can do them, so can I. You don't need to worry about me."

Lin Qingyan had a lot of money in her spatial storage, as well as an endless supply of food, vegetables, and fruits, but she had no way of letting Lin Zhiheng know about it.

The younger brother has to support the older sister, and the older sister has to support the younger brother.

She thought about it and realized she needed to find a way to make money so that she could have a legitimate excuse to use the money and items in the space in the future.

She couldn't use her past life's expertise to make money yet, and it was practically impossible for educated youth to find work in the city. Finally, she came up with a solution.
