After checking out at dawn, Zhou Xiang bought a lot of breakfast on the roadside and threw it into the space when no one was paying attention. The desk was soon full of it.

Ling Ran: "..." He wanted to pee.

After finally buying enough, Zhou Xiang remembered to let Ling Ran out of the thatched hut.

Ling Ran, who was eating breakfast, "..."

Alas! We are separated by space and cannot communicate.

Although he said he wouldn't buy anything, Zhou Xiang couldn't resist when he passed by the supply and marketing cooperative. He went in and bought some snacks, biscuits, and White Rabbit cookies. He also bought some colorful plastic ropes for weaving. Blue and green? Purple and red, too?

Zhou Xiang, having a difficult time choosing, ordered ten rings of each color. The salesperson looked at her fingers and wondered, "Is this girl planning to wear ten fake rings on one finger?" Why did the salesperson think so? Because the girls bought these to make fake rings for fun.

Zhou thought: "I'm buying this as a gift for my classmates."

The salesperson collected his thoughts, took out the rope and counted them out.

After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative and heading to the station, I put everything except the plastic rope into the space.

Sitting in the car, Zhou Xiang started to weave, but this thing was very old and had spanned two generations, so Zhou Xiang's claws were not flexible enough.

"Oops! No, no, that knot isn't tight enough, and this one is wrong, so the flower won't be symmetrical."

A vaguely familiar female voice echoed in Zhou Xiang's ears as she was absorbed in knitting. Zhou Xiang looked up. Luo Xiaoqing? She'd met him at an elementary school competition, then been in the same class with Li Li in junior high school. A stranger from her second life whom she'd heard of on the street?

Luo Xiaoqing felt a little embarrassed when she saw Zhou Xiang staring at her. "Well, well, I just saw that you made a mistake and I couldn't help it."

Zhou Xiang stuffed a red one into her hand and said, "Weave one for me."

At this time, people's thoughts are very positive, especially when they use their own hands to help others, which is positive and exciting.

Luo Xiaoqing took the beautiful plastic rope with trembling hands and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely braid it well for you."

As she spoke, she lowered her head and began to weave seriously. Zhou Xiang also leaned over to look, only to see the two slightly thin hands flying around quickly. She raised a black claw to cover them, "I asked you to weave for me, I want to see."

"Oh," Luo Xiaoqing smiled sheepishly, "Then I'll write it slowly."

Zhou Xiang quickly understood the idea while the teacher was braiding. "Do you know other ways to braid it? For example, the ones boys wear. I want to braid one for my brother."

"Yes, I'll teach you."

This time, Luo Xiaoqing knitted a very simple diamond-shaped ring, which was simpler than the flower pattern just now.

"Thanks!"

"You're welcome." Luo Xiaoqing's face turned red, she was excited and thrilled to be thanked.

When the car arrived at the station, Zhou Xiang gave Luo Xiaoqing two plastic ropes before getting off.

After riding on the Little Flying Tiger back to the town for more than half an hour, Ling Ran was released in the woods beside the stinking ditch of the food station.

Ling Ran sent the man back to Zhou's house. Zhou's father was not there, so he must have gone out to wander the streets again. He wanted to take out some money, but Zhou Xiang stopped him and gave him two more bundles of money. "Find some time to go to the Water Conservancy Bureau and buy a yard. Buy two or three yards next to each other first. I have to pick up my eldest and third brothers."

"Let's go together." Ling Ran took out the antique bed from the ring and signaled Zhou Xiang to put it away. He didn't want to put these big items in his ring because they were too cumbersome.

"No, I'm going out too often and it'll arouse suspicion. Go buy a house, then trick my parents into taking me with them to decorate the yard. I'll use this time to make the medicine for Big Brother."

"All right!"

Ling Ran also knew that if they always acted together, the Zhou family would become suspicious.

When Zhou's father came home and saw his little girl, he asked happily, "Think about it, is it done?"

Zhou Xiang can only feel helpless about his father who only cares about money. If you don't believe me, just ask, "Dad, you don't even care if I'm okay?"

He would definitely say, "You're standing in front of me, looking so real, healthy, and full of flesh, and I'm still asking nonsense?"

Looking at the expectation in his father's eyes, Zhou Xiang could only take out the money and said, "Here's your twenty. Dad, don't you care about me?"

Father Zhou immediately took out five yuan and handed it to his daughter. "Here's your five yuan. You've gained weight. You must have had a good time in the past month."

After thinking for a moment, Zhou's father added, "It's already noon. Dad will buy you braised pig's tail tonight."

"Thank you, Dad."

Zhou Xiang was very happy. It was the tenth day of the first lunar month! There was still plenty of meat and vegetables at home. Her father even bought her a pig's tail!

Zhou's mother came back with thirty yuan and looked her up and down. "Is everything okay? You seem to have gained some weight and become a little whiter. Have you grown taller too? Your trouser legs are getting shorter."

"I eat well and sleep well. Ling Ran said that he will take me with him next time when good things happen." Zhou Xiang was secretly happy. Has he grown taller already?

Mother Zhou was relieved. "Your grandmother asked you about it. After I told her, she didn't say anything."

Did the sun rise from the west? Old Lady Liu would ask her. "I'll go see her in a couple of days, before the 15th, so I can pay her a visit and wish her a happy new year."

"By the way, go see your grandfather. Your grandfather also asked you." Zhou's father quickly followed up. His little girl was only ten years old and could go out to work and earn money. He had to brag in front of his father.

"Okay, let's all go and see."

In the afternoon, while Dad was asleep and Mom was at work, Zhou Xiang locked the door and entered the space to make the Soul Nourishing and Mind Concentrating Fluids. He also followed the recipe for the Essence Nourishing Fluid. Should the effect be good this time? Should he try it with Liu Dagang again?

"Think about it and open the door."

Ling Ran's voice came from outside the space. Zhou wanted to leave the space and open the door. "Why are you here?"

"I'm going to the county right now and ask my grandfather for help. It's such a waste of time for us to handle all the trivial matters ourselves."
