They had just arrived at the market and hadn't visited any other places yet.

"What a coincidence, I live in Haitang Village," Xu Ling said with a smile.

The two villages are separated by only one road, and the entrances of the villages are less than five meters apart, which is indeed very close.

After agreeing on a time, Lin Ziyan paid half of the deposit and then continued shopping at the market with her two younger sisters.

"Ah Yan, aren't you afraid the boss will run away? We've already paid half the deposit."

The chubby girl asked suspiciously.

Lin Ziyan shook her head. "No, she wasn't lying. She really is from Haitang Village."

“That stall used to be where an old man from Haitang Village sold vegetables.”

"The stalls here look like they're set up randomly, but most of them are actually fixed. You'll understand next time if you pay attention. They're basically set up by villagers from the surrounding area."

The chubby girl nodded; she hadn't noticed that.

Lin Ziyan knew it was because she had asked the stall owner when she was selling lemon tea at the stall.

Walking along the path ahead, there were noticeably fewer people.

Jiaojiao didn't want to be held anymore, so she struggled to get down and wanted to hold Lin Ziyan's hand.

"You little ingrate, I carried you all the way, why didn't you think of holding my hand?" The chubby girl flicked Jiao Jiao's nose.

Jiaojiao showed her eight little baby teeth, "Fat sister, you're tired."

The group laughed and joked as they walked towards the store.

Lin Ziyan slowed her pace to match Jiaojiao's speed.

"Ah Yan, thank goodness we left our bikes at the storage area, otherwise we'd still be stuck in the crowd," the chubby girl said, turning around to see the throng of people.

Lin Ziyan glanced back, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and realized that she couldn't buy anything even if she avoided the distribution days, so she would have to squeeze in again in the future.
