Reborn in the 80s with Space

In her previous life, her eldest brother died early, her second sister went blind due to illness, her third brother became autistic, and she herself lived a life of poverty and hardship, scavenging...

Chapter 142 Buying Chickens

Now is not a good time to be the first to take the lead. Everyone is scrambling for spots and any means may be used.

Zhou wanted to give the draft paper to Principal Li for safekeeping. After reading it, Principal Li understood what she meant, folded it carefully, and put it in his handbag.

Director Liu came over specifically to ask how Zhou Xiang did on the exam. Principal Li showed Director Liu the draft paper again. Director Liu glanced through it and was very satisfied. "Well, this Chinese should get full marks. The composition is very well written. I'll put this away."

After saying that, he folded it and put it in his bag. Principal Li just hated himself for being so careless. Why did he show it to Director Liu?

The selection competition lasted two days, with only one subject tested in half a day. Zhou wanted to say goodbye to Principal Li and go back to the Water Conservancy Bureau to make lunch for his third brother and Zuo Heng.

Zhou Hua was very happy to see his sister after school. He surrounded Zhou Xiang and asked her how she did in the exam.

"It should be a perfect score."

"My sister is amazing."

"Really? You don't even look at whose sister she is."

"right!"

The brother and sister praised each other and then laughed.

Looking at it from the left, I felt extremely happy. When I came home from school, there was someone waiting for me with dinner, and there were two or three people playing and joking around. This was simple and ordinary happiness.

The afternoon exam was math, and Zhou Xiang also copied down the questions and his answers. When the bell rang for the end of the exam, he still mixed in with everyone else to hand in his paper.

Principal Li was waiting for Zhou Xiang's draft paper. This time he had to keep it carefully so that he could have something to show off.

After taking the draft paper and reading it, he nodded, "Well, I guarantee you'll get full marks."

When we returned to the Water Conservancy Bureau yard, Ling Ran had already arrived.

Zhou Xiang wanted to kick him out, "What? Don't you have classes this afternoon?"

"Today is Saturday, and we only have two classes in the afternoon."

"Then why don't you go home?"

Ling Ran felt uncomfortable, but he still smiled. "There's no one to help me with my homework when I get home, so I'm here to keep Zuo Heng and the others company."

"Okay! As long as you're happy."

"Did the exam go smoothly today?"

Zhou Xiang looked up at him in confusion, "What did you know?"

Ling Ran shook his head, "I don't know! But since you've broken the old rules of the county school, it's impossible that no one will come out to intervene."

"Well, that's the truth."

"Did someone really bully you? Who?" I want to kill him.

Zuo Heng and Zhou Hua also came over and surrounded her.

Three pairs of worried eyes and three different facial expressions made Zhou Xiang feel warm in his heart.

After describing what happened, Zuo Heng and Ling Ran remained calm, but Zhou Hua had a vomiting reaction.

Zhou Xiang patted his third brother on the back and said, "You should go back more often to see him. Once you get used to it, you'll be fine."

Zhou Xiang also copied the two exams on the second day, word for word.

Principal Li held the three draft papers in his hand, his excitement overflowing with words, "Great, I'll definitely get full marks."

Zhou Xiang ignored his excitement and said, "I won't be back until tomorrow, so don't wait for me."

Principal Li nodded, still looking down at the paper in his hand.

Zhou Xiang returned to the Water Conservancy Bureau and found Ling Ran learning to cook in the kitchen.

"Hey, the only thing I ask of you is that the food you cook is cooked thoroughly so that no one gets diarrhea."

An arrow hit Ling Ran right in the chest, and he had only one feeling: pain!

At the dinner table, Zhou Xiang carefully tasted the dish and nodded, "Yes, it's cooked."

Ling Ran: Can’t you just say something nice to encourage me?

On Monday, all three of them went to school. Zhou Xiang fed Dahuang and Xiaohuang. Uh, because the one left behind was also yellow, it was named Xiaohuang.

Then I filled the jar with eggs, cleaned the house and yard, went to the vegetable market, bought meat and long-lasting vegetables, and smuggled out some cucumbers and tomatoes. That was it.

Look at the cage in my hand, there are twenty chicks in it. If a few more chickens lay eggs, there will be an unlimited supply at home and here.

Put the chicks into the space to keep them company with the two hens. Since it is difficult to tell the males and females apart, we can only wait until the chicks grow up.

He picked up another twenty eggs in a cloth bag and went to see Old Lady Liu.

"Grandma, I brought you some eggs. Don't be reluctant to eat them! It's going to be hot soon and they'll go bad easily."

Old Mrs. Liu nodded.

"Then I'm going home."

Old Lady Liu waved her hand and said, "Go back!"

I went around the supply and marketing cooperative and the department store, spent more than 100 yuan, put my money into my space, and went home calmly.

"I'm back!"

Zhou Yu looked at the two large cloth bags full in his sister's hands and quickly took them. "Sister, did you bring anything for my second sister?"

"I brought it. Go and call big brother back."

Zhou Yu reluctantly went out to call for help.

Zhou Xiang took the opportunity to take out the things stored in the space, mixed them together, and put away the bag.

Zhou Yu hurriedly called his elder brother back and ran back. Seeing the things all over the kang, he happily picked out his own things, not thinking at all that two cloth bags could hold so many things.

"Yashuang, Pechoin, um, and Seagull Water, shampoo, so great, I don't have to use soap to wash my hair anymore. When I wash my hair with soap, my hair becomes so rough that I can't comb it. And Bee Flower? Sister, you are so kind, you bought everything I need."

"Really? Please look carefully. You can only take one of the multiple portions. The single portions are for everyone to share. Put them in the bathroom."

"I know. I'll sort them out right away."

Zhou Xiang looked at her strangely and felt that his second sister had changed a little.

"Brother, this bag of marbles is for you to play with. Put it away and take it out slowly. Don't let the kids take it away."

Zhou Niao happily took it and said, "Thank you, sister. I know. I only take five out every time."

After Zhou Yu sorted the things, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what it was. Forget it, don't bother thinking about it.

At noon, Zhou's father and mother got off work and felt relieved to see their little daughter come back. They always felt like they had lost their backbone when their little daughter was not at home.

"Think about it, how did you do on the exam?"

"Dad, don't worry. I'm sure you'll pass the tryout. I'm going to the city on Thursday. If there's anything you want, tell me. If I see it, I'll buy it for you."

Zhou Yu smiled when he heard this, "I want red wool to knit a new sweater."

Zhou Xiang then remembered that his second sister had only one skill in her life: knitting sweaters, and she was very good at it. "Okay! But I have a condition. Everyone in the family needs one, and Third Brother needs two. If you agree, I'll buy you two more kilograms of wool in different colors."

Zhou Yu nodded. "Okay, buy a set of knitting needles, and a few extra pairs of size 9 and 10."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely give you everything."

Then he looked at Zhou Niao and said, "Brother, is there anything you want in particular?"

"I don't know, just buy whatever you want!"

Zhou Xiang looked at his parents.

Mother Zhou shook her head, and Father Zhou hesitated and said, "Can I have a TV?"
