"Thank you, Aunt Bai," Cen Zixiang took the certificate from Bai Jingkai.

"Then you are busy, let's take care of this first."

"Why are you in such a hurry? Let's go to my house for lunch."

"No, there are people waiting for us at home, Aunt Bai. I will definitely come to your house to bother you if I have the chance in the future."

"Haha, fine, then I won't keep you here."

Cen Zixiang felt somewhat unhappy when he left the Housing Management Office. His mother kept saying how great Aunt Bai was, but wasn't she just treating people differently? Was she looking down on anyone?

Chen Ye might have sensed that Cen Zixiang was in a bad mood, but she didn't really think that she was the reason. As for noticing that Bai Jing was only perfunctory towards her, that was normal. She wasn't very familiar with the person, and their relationship was indirect.

She doesn't care about this at all. There are so many people who look down on her. If she continues to argue with them one by one, wouldn't that be a waste of her time?

"Fourth brother, you finally come out, let's buy some more soda to take back." She has loved drinking soda for many years. Of course, it is impossible to drink it every day, so she is still reluctant to do so.

"Buy more. You don't like that. I think canned soup tastes much better than soda."

"How can they be the same? One is sticky and the other is refreshing and bubbly."

"By the way, we'll go to the street later and ask someone to fix the gate. I hope it can be done before the exam." She didn't want to do anything herself recently.

"Don't worry about this. You can go back first. I'll go to the street alone. I'll also take care of the search for people."

Chen Ye was not polite at all: "It's a deal, you take care of the rest."

Cen Zixiang tugged at Chen Ye's hair hard until it became a mess, then he laughed and dodged away, just like a naughty child.

Chen Ye was not angry. He became happy after looking at the man. He tidied his hair and said that long hair was annoying, but if it was short hair, it would be neat with just a few tidiness.

The location of where Chen Ye lives is quite good. Across the street is the post office and department store. There is also one near the supply and marketing cooperative, but the things in the supply and marketing cooperative are not as complete as those in the department store.

This is the third department store in the provincial capital, so of course there are more customers. Chen Ye is worried every time he comes here. It feels like the rush to shop during the Spring Festival seen in the video, with people everywhere.

"How about you wait outside while Fourth Brother goes in to buy it?"

"No, I'll go in and take a look too. I have some tickets that are about to expire, and I have to spend them to avoid losing money. I don't know what day it is today, but why does it look like there are a lot more people than usual?"

"Let's go in and take a look, then you'll know." Cen Zixiang pulled Chen Ye and squeezed in with the crowd.

Fortunately, both of them are tall and can see the counter over other people's heads.

Chen Ye pricked up her ears to listen to the people around her, trying to hear why there were so many people here today since it was not a holiday. Not to mention listening so hard, she soon found out the reason.

Chen Ye tugged at Cen Zixiang's clothes. Cen Zixiang looked over. Chen Ye pointed towards the vegetables and said, "They said they have seafood, razorfish, and other things today. Let's go take a look."

Cen Zixiang nodded. Both of them were tall and strong. If they really squeezed together, there would be no one in the room. Chen Ye and the other man quickly squeezed to the counter with the most people.

Although Chen Ye is tall, he can't see the counter just by raising his feet. But there is Cen Zixiang next to him. This guy can see the things on the waist-high chopping board just by raising his feet.

"Really? Not only do we have knife fish, but we also have frozen shrimp. Let me see, sister, there seems to be pork as well. But the pork belly is definitely out. It seems that only spareribs are left. How about that?"

While asking this question, Cen Zixiang had already squeezed forward. Saving face was not as important as eating. Not to mention knife fish, he loved even prawns.

Not to mention pork ribs. People here dislike that there is not much meat on the ribs and they are all lean meat. But who understands my family? He loves sweet and sour pork ribs and corn pork rib soup the most. The only drawback is that there is really not much meat on the ribs here. They are shaved too cleanly.

Chen Ye quickly followed, not caring what they bought as long as it was edible. The two of them ignored the complaints of the people around them and quickly squeezed in front of the chopping board.

Tsk tsk, no wonder there are so many people today, seafood! It's a rare thing here.

"Master, give me five pounds of knife fish and prawns," Cen Zixiang waved his hand and wished he could buy them all. If he could fit them in, he would definitely buy them all, but the weather doesn't allow it.

The master looked up and saw a tall and strong young man talking nonsense. He rolled his eyes without any politeness and said, "You are dreaming. The purchase limit is one kilogram per person. It's up to you to buy it or not. If you don't want to buy, get out of the way. There are people waiting behind you."

Nowadays, all the salespeople are so arrogant, but Cen Zixiang didn't get angry at all: "You can give me a pound as well. How much are the spare ribs?"

Chen Ye also looked at the spareribs. They were really clean. Their only use was probably to make soup.

"Pork ribs are cheap, 10 cents per pound, unlimited servings. How many do you want?"

"Half, please. Chef, can you please leave more meat on the ribs tomorrow? I'll order more. It's okay if it's more expensive. My sister likes to eat the ones with bones. You almost don't even have any meat on them."

"Go away, this proves that I'm a good knife worker. The meat and bones are not the same price. Alright, pay up and leave."

It must be said that although the master had a bad attitude, his technique was really fast. Cen Zixiang could only carry the things and pull his little sister out.

Chen Ye didn't let Cen Zixiang pull anyone with him at all. He looked at the master with a smile on his face. While he was looking through the knife fish, a box of Daqianmen fell into the basket next to the master. There were rags and other things in the basket. The angle was very clever and only the master could see it clearly.

The master glanced at Chen Ye who winked at him, and nodded immediately, knowing what was going on. It must be that this girl knew how to handle things. Look how quietly she did it, and no one noticed among so many people.

"Hey, girl, you're here. You're going to take them back to Aunt Wang and the others, right? How many people are there in total? Look at my memory. I took the money and forgot about it."

Look, look, no one can find fault with what people say. They have already paid the money, so how can you still take the money and not give the things?

Chen Ye immediately responded, "Uncle, your memory is already very good. You are much better than me for being able to remember so many people. It's not that Grandma Wang and the others have poor legs and feet, so they had to ask me to come over and help run errands. You must not let others misunderstand you."

The master laughed and said, "It's okay. Everyone has their own difficulties. We all understand."
