The next day.
It was just dawn, Lin Rui hadn't gone out to sell snails yet, and Lin Xiaoxiao had just gotten up when Zhang Xiu came happily.
"Xiaojuan is also going out today. When you are done with your work, take her for a walk."
Lin Rui didn't expect that he would meet Zhang Xiaojuan for the second time so soon. He was not prepared. Besides, he felt extremely embarrassed when he thought about meeting his elder sister and being with his younger sister.
"Isn't it too fast?"
"What's so fast about that?" Zhang Xiu smiled mysteriously. "When my brother was your age, he already had a child. Do you think it's too fast?"
Lin Rui: “…”
When he thought about meeting Zhang Xiaojuan, he felt even more nervous than the first time.
Seeing that his palms were sweating from nervousness, Lin Xiaoxiao suppressed a smile and comforted him, "Second brother, just treat it as meeting a friend."
How could someone who is usually so carefree get so nervous when meeting his future wife?
Lin Rui nodded with a hint of embarrassment. Zhang Xiu quickly said, "It's settled then. You better be more flexible when the time comes. Girls are shy, so don't be so taciturn and talk to them too much."
"Xiaojuan is capable and can help you."
Even if I can't help much, at least holding a bag and holding a scale shouldn't be a problem.
"I just don't like to talk much." Lin Rui added with a red face.
Lin Feng came over and took out half of the snails from Lin Rui's bucket with a spoon. "You should take fewer snails out today."
After selling the snails early, I can go out for a walk with Zhang Xiaojuan.
“Brother…”
Lin Rui reached out to stop Lin Feng. He couldn't let his elder brother get too tired just because of finding a wife.
Lin Xiaoxiao grabbed him and said, "Second brother, let the eldest brother bring more! After you sell the snails, go shopping with Xiaojuan."
Before Lin Rui could respond, she continued, "Take it easy now. When big brother finds a sister-in-law for us in the future, you will have to work harder, but it will still be the same."
After hearing this, Lin Rui felt a little better, so he said to Lin Feng: "Brother, thank you for your hard work today."
When my eldest brother finds a wife in the future, he will definitely help.
"We're a family, why are you talking about this?"
Lin Feng said lightly, installed the screws on the bicycle, and went out.
Lin Rui brought fewer snails and the place he was going to was closer, so he picked them carefully. The three of them had already agreed that they would buy a new one after Lin Dacheng got married.
Seeing Lin Feng leave, Lin Rui also packed up and prepared to go out. Lin Xiaoxiao whispered a reminder to him.
"Brother, after you've sold the snails, remember to take Xiaojuan out for dinner and give her a small gift or something. Don't be too stingy."
"Then what should I buy?" Lin Rui touched his head, looking confused. He had never gone shopping with a girl before and had no idea what to buy.
"When the time comes, you can go shopping and see what she wants. It's up to you to decide."
Anyway, just don't be too stingy.
Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Rui was wondering but he couldn't delay any longer, so he left with a heavy heart.
As soon as he left, Zhang Xiu asked with a chuckle, "Selling so many snails every day, you must make a lot of money, right?"
Even if one pound is worth ten cents, the income from more than 100 pounds can be more than ten yuan, which is not a small amount after deducting the cost. What's more, there are people in the city who come to collect snails every day.
Lin Xiaoxiao was sweeping the floor with a broom in her hand as she casually said, "I have to pay someone to pick the snails, and I have to pay for the ingredients to cook the snails. After deducting all these, there's not much money left."
