Brother Biao thought to himself that he had guessed correctly, so he generously said,

"What do you want to do to him? Just tell me!"

Lu Zhixia said, "I don't need you to hit him. Just starve him. I want to know where my child is."

Brother Biao: "Song Yaozu? Aren't they together?"

Lu Zhixia: "That's not my child. They switched my babies back then. I gave birth to a girl!"

Upon hearing this, Brother Biao slammed his fist on the table, exclaiming, "Outrageous! How can there be such a beast in the world!"

Lu Zhixia said, "I have filed a lawsuit in court. I want the truth from him."

Brother Biao nodded knowingly, "Okay, I know what to do, just don't kill anyone!"

Lu Zhixia said, "You need to be careful not to make things worse!"

Brother Biao laughed, "Don't worry, even if something happens, someone will cover for me! These days, if I didn't have some skills, would I have so many people following me?"

Lu Zhixia desperately wanted to find her child, especially after spending time with Gu Huailin these past few days, which strengthened her resolve.

She didn't want to wait any longer!

He took the key out of his pocket. "These are the keys to my house. We'll each have one."

Brother Biao took the keys. "Don't worry! I'll definitely get the renovation done for you. As for what Song Weidong said, as long as he's alive, we'll definitely be able to get it out of him!"

Lu Zhixia took a pen and wrote down the address of the tenement building, saying, "If you need anything, come find me here."

Brother Biao glanced at the address. "Is this where you rent a place?"

Lu Zhixia: "That's right, just have one person notify me when the time comes, don't send too many people."

Brother Biao folded the note and put it in his pocket. "Got it, don't worry about me!"

Lu Zhixia said, "That's all for today, I'm leaving now!"

Brother Biao also stood up and waved to the waiter in the distance, "Pack up everything on this table that can be packed up."

The waiter immediately came over with a plastic bag.

Lu Zhixia rode her bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative again, bought some vegetables and eggs, and saw an old man selling fish when she came out. There were baskets on the ground and fish on glass bags.

There were about seven or eight, so she quickly went over.

How much is the silver carp?

"I sell them by the piece. The larger ones are 3.5 yuan, and the smaller ones are 2 yuan!"

“Then I’ll take these two.” Lu Zhixia pointed to the two largest ones.

The old man strung the fish together with a rope. "You have a good eye, kid. These two are the biggest."

Lu Zhixia paid the money, then hung the fish on the handlebars of her bicycle, trying her best to avoid it while riding. Fortunately, she made it back to the apartment building without any major incident.

I took my things off the car and then ran home as fast as I could.

As soon as I climbed to the third floor and turned the corner, I saw a lot of people gathered in front of Su Lan's house. Then I saw that they were all holding finished products in their hands.

She quickly went over and saw that they were quite skillful; the pillowcases, car covers, and small handkerchiefs were all made from the soaked cloth.

When Su Lan saw Lu Zhixia return, she quickly told the group, "Take the finished products first, and wait for Xiaxia to set the price later!"

Lu Zhixia quickly unlocked the door with her key, put the things inside, and took out a stool, a notebook, and a pen.

Following my previous plan, I took a look at everyone's handicrafts.

"Sleeves are two cents a pair, gloves are also two cents, and car covers are one cent. If everyone thinks there are no problems, I will register how many you need, and then we will settle the payment tomorrow."

"It's so expensive! I should have made more!" the plump aunt exclaimed.

The people around me thought the same way; making this takes a bit of time, but it can be done at home.

A group of people lined up one after another. Lu Zhixia wrote down the numbers in her notebook, while Su Lan checked the items and counted them.

The two of them worked for more than half an hour and finally finished registering everyone.

Lu Zhixia glanced at the amount of money on the bill and then told them, "Try to bring some small change tomorrow. I'll go to the bank to get a larger bill so it will be easier to settle the bill later."

The plump aunt turned around and repeated what she said, and the people nodded in agreement.

Then the group dispersed, leaving only Aunt Fatty behind.

"I'll be home alone today, and I'd like to have lunch here, is that alright?"

Lu Zhixia: "Okay, of course, you can eat whatever we make."

Auntie Pang said, "My family sent me a box of apples. I'll pack some for you when I get back."

Lu Zhixia: "Okay, don't pretend too much, just give me a little."

The plump aunt turned around and wiggled her hips as she went home. She quickly returned, carrying a box in her arms, and put it down in front of them.

"The fruit from the small tree tastes quite good. They can send me more in a few days, and I'll send you some more then."

Lu Zhixia thought the apples looked pretty good, all red and plump, and looked delicious, so she took a few, washed them in a basin of water, and gave one to Su Lan and one to Yuan Yuan.

One bite of the apple, and it's crisp, sweet, and delicious.

Lu Zhixia said, "Your fruit trees produce good apples. You must have sold a lot this year, right?"

Aunt Pang sat down and sighed, "In my village, almost everyone has an orchard, but prices aren't going up. Can you believe how worrying that is?"

Looking at the apple in her hand, Lu Zhixia had an idea. "Does your village have a lot of apples? What is the approximate purchase price?"

Aunt Pang said, "They're not worth much, around 5 or 6 cents. After they take them, they might sell them for a dime or two. I'm not too sure about the exact price, but the apples from my family's plot are all pretty good."
