Chapter 189 This is my discerning eye

“Nothing happened at home. It’s just that before the Lunar New Year, they discovered that I wasn’t my biological child and had been abducted. They went back to find my family.”

"These are foreign candies, have a taste."

The woman at the newsstand took the box of candy and exclaimed with delight, "Oh my, it's from abroad? That's some good stuff!" She held the box in her hand and flipped through it repeatedly, but she couldn't bear to open the box and peel off a single piece to taste.

He then put it in the drawer next to him, saying, "I'll take it home for the kids to try after work."

Because of this box of foreign candy, the other party didn't ask any more questions, but instead helped to bring out the small table and shelf.

Since the Lantern Festival hasn't passed yet, many factories haven't started work. And because the weather is warm, everyone is going out shopping. Adults are taking their children out, holding candied hawthorns in their hands, making the streets very lively.

Zhizhi's stall hadn't been set up for quite some time, and when it suddenly opened again, it immediately attracted a lot of people.

Most of the people who came were with their children and asked questions, and those who asked questions all ended up buying something.

At the very least, people buy a hair accessory.

Some people buy a whole bag of hair accessories, hair clips, and earrings.

After a busy morning, Zhizhi was so busy that she didn't even have time to drink water. It wasn't until almost noon that everyone was finally gone.

All she had left were a few pairs of earrings.

Everything else is sold out.

As for how much money she made, Zhizhi didn't count it; she didn't have the energy to.

She carried her things to the newsstand and paid for the money she had saved up over the past few months.

The woman at the newsstand happily helped her carry her things inside, saying, "Don't worry, nothing will get lost if you leave your things here with me."

Zhizhi looked at her with trust, "From the first moment I saw you, I could tell you had a kind face."

The older sister was pleased to hear this, saying, "That's what everyone says."

——

When Zhou Lin returned home at noon, he knocked on the door but no one answered. He opened the door himself and went inside, only to find that no one was home.

"Zhizhi, Zhizhi..." He called out twice subconsciously, but after searching the whole house, there was no one there.

Zhou Lin quickly ran outside.

As I was going downstairs, I ran into Wen Jinzhou, who casually asked, "Have you seen Zhizhi?"

"No, I just got back. Isn't Zhizhi home?"

Zhou Lin shook his head.

Wen Jinzhou immediately asked, "Did you go to set up a stall?"

Zhou Lin nodded and continued running outside. "I thought of that too."

When Zhou Lin drove out, he caught up with Zhizhi, who had already returned, at the bus stop.

Seeing the car stop beside her, Zhizhi tilted her head and asked, "Is that my husband?"

People quickly got out of the driver's seat.

Zhizhi grinned happily, "Husband!"

Zhou Lin: Shouting won't help.

But as soon as he walked up to Zhizhi, she opened her arms to him and said, "Honey, give me a hug. I'm so tired this morning."

Zhou Lin could only resign himself to his fate and stretched out his hands. "Didn't I tell you, I won't let you set up a stall?" he said softly.

Zhizhi nestled in his arms and said in a sweet voice, "But I'm so bored at home. Going out for a walk and making money makes me feel really good." She raised her head and shook it.

"You're pregnant..."

Zhizhi covered his mouth and said, "I know, so I act within my means, and I never cause trouble when I go out, I only make money."

Guess how much I earned today?

Zhou Lin wasn't interested in that, and just sighed, "What's important now is your health."

"Okay, don't worry, I won't go tomorrow."

Zhou Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm not going..."

“I’ll go again the day after tomorrow and rest for a day,” Zhizhi said again.

Zhou Lin “…”

Before Zhou Lin could say anything more, Zhizhi assured him, "Don't worry, I won't go when it's windy or rainy, I won't go when it's cold, and I won't go every day. I'll just go whenever I feel like it."

“You spend the rest of the time watching TV at home, okay?” She pulled Zhou Lin’s hand and shook it.

Zhou Lin couldn't refuse her, so he said, "Then I'll take you there when you go."

Zhizhi waved her hand, "No need, I'm not in a hurry, taking the bus is very convenient."

Before Zhou Lin could continue speaking, Zhizhi said, "I'm hungry."

Zhou Lin picked up the bag she had thrown on the ground and took her home.

Zhizhi said, "Just like before, when I'm not home, you transform into a fairy godmother and cook at home, waiting for me to come back so I can feast."

Zhou Lin could only say, "If you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself."

Zhizhi assured, "Don't worry, I cherish my body, and I cherish the baby in my belly even more!"

As she spoke, she pulled Zhou Lin's hand to her belly, and then Zhizhi suddenly exclaimed, "It moved! It moved! The baby moved!"

Perhaps because he was wearing thick clothes, Zhou Lin didn't feel it immediately.

Because he was driving, he didn't dare to touch it closely, and could only ask curiously, "Did it move? Did it move?"

Zhizhi nodded seriously, but then told him, "It only moved twice, and now it's not moving anymore."

Zhou Lin looked slightly disappointed.

“It’s okay, it’s still small now. The fetal movements will become more and more obvious and more frequent in the future, and then you will be able to see them,” Zhizhi said.

When the two returned to the dormitory building, Wen Jinzhou was waiting downstairs. When he saw Zhizhi get out of the car, he came over and asked, "Are you really going to set up a stall?"

"Wen Zhizhi, are you a money-grubber?"

"Were you a landlord in your past life?"

Zhizhi "..."

"Do you know how much money I made today?" Zhizhi asked, tilting her chin up.

"How many?"

"We haven't... we haven't counted yet."

"You could make a whole sackful, you can't even count it all?"

Wen Jinzhou's words were somewhat sarcastic. Zhizhi was fed up. She picked up her bag and said, "Come on, let's go upstairs. I'll count them for you and make sure you're blinded."

Wen Jinzhou "..."

"I have dog eyes, what kind of eyes are you?"

Zhizhi "..."

"Insightful eyes, this is my insightful eyes."

"Why is it that when we're siblings, I'm seen as a dog, while you're seen as a wise person?" Wen Jinzhou pressed.

“Because you can’t recognize a gem,” Zhizhi told him as she went upstairs.

The brother and sister went upstairs after arguing.

Once inside, Zhizhi dumped the money onto the coffee table. "Come on, let's count!"

A huge pile of loose coins and banknotes clattered onto the coffee table, some even bouncing on the floor, truly blinding Wen Jinzhou.

"Wow... there really is a whole sack of that!"

Then the two siblings sat down at the coffee table and started counting seriously, while Zhou Lin went to the kitchen to cook.

"One yuan, two yuan, three yuan..."

"I have eighty-five in total, how much is yours?" Wen Jinzhou asked, looking at the pile in front of Zhizhi.

"Sixty-three, sixty-four... sixty-eight, I have a total of sixty-eight."

"Sixty-eight plus eighty-five equals one hundred and fifty-three..."

Wen Jinzhou suddenly turned to the kitchen and shouted, "Zhou Lin, let's set up a stall too, it's really profitable."

Zhou Lin didn't even turn his head. "Then go!"

Wen Jinzhou chuckled again, "Forget it, I'll just end up taking my sister's job again."

"Let my sister earn the money herself. Girls need to dress well and eat well. I'm just a rough old man who doesn't spend money, so there's no point in me earning so much money."

Zhizhi gathered all the money together and then told him, "Brother, when you get married, won't you have to spend money on your wife?"

"Girls who don't spend money age faster."
