Li Xiyue burst out laughing.

This girl is really greedy. I remember she wasn't like this when she first came to the countryside.

Zhao Guohua used to give her a dime or two, and she wouldn't even look at it. Now how come she's suddenly become so greedy?

"There's no other way. Lao Wang and I need to save money to buy jobs, and I also want to go back to the city as soon as possible." Huang Xinrui explained, "A decent job would cost at least five or six hundred yuan now, so it would be 1,200 yuan for the two of us."

Then, her eyes darted around, "Yueyue, why don't you lend me some?"

Li Xiyue asked, "How much money do you still need? If it's not much..."

“Not much, just a thousand short,” Huang Xinrui said, hugging her.

Li Xiyue shoved her away, "1200? You only managed to scrape together a fraction? I don't believe you for a second."

Old Wang can earn at least ten yuan by going to the black market. He's been doing this for a year now, so it's impossible that he's only saved up this little money.

"Hahaha..." The two sisters-in-law laughed so hard they couldn't stand up straight.

Huang Xinrui touched the tips of her two index fingers together, and looked around as if she had done something wrong.

Li Xiyue: "..."

Isn't that the action of that little lamb with a poop on its head? How did she learn that?

"You brat, how much do you owe?" Li Xiyue couldn't stand it anymore and slapped her.

Huang Xinrui burst out laughing, "I was just kidding you. Actually, we don't owe each other anything. My mom helped me pay for the job, and Lao Wang has almost scraped together the money."

Li Xiyue rolled her eyes.

Although they kept joking around, they didn't miss any important matters. The two sisters-in-law decided to spend some money to have Huang Xinrui teach them to read, so that if the college entrance examination were to be reinstated in the future, they would also want to take the exam.

Huang Xinrui also decided to urge her husband, Lao Wang, to study together. Zhou Yunxia, ​​of course, wouldn't let her brother off the hook and dragged him along to study as well.

Li Xiyue smiled with satisfaction. It was only 1974, and there were still more than three years until the resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977. There was still time.

Having packed everything up, Li Xiyue decided to declutter the remaining items that she couldn't take with her, since she didn't dare to openly display them.

With a wave of her fair and delicate hand, she said, "These are for you."

With a whoosh, the three women rushed over and began to snatch the item.

Anyone who didn't know better would think they were grabbing discounted items in a shopping mall!

Even more outrageous, the three of them argued heatedly over the item.

Li Xiyue was speechless.

What happened to our promise of being best friends?

So it turns out their sisterhood was all fake.

She couldn't help but wonder if the three women were kindly helping her tidy up just to take away the things she didn't want.

Emerging from the smoke-filled room, I saw Xu Baiwei practicing acupuncture, with her best friend Xu Xiazhu chosen as her practice subject.

Xia Zhu's small arms were covered with silver needles, and her little face was scrunched up in pain.

They are all good sisters, but the three inside almost fought tooth and nail over petty gains, while the one outside is willing to sacrifice so much for the other.

It's a stark contrast.

Just as Li Xiyue was about to step forward and say a few words of praise, she heard Xia Zhu say something.

"Weiwei, we agreed on ten stitches for one cent, you can't go back on your word."

Li Xiyue stumbled and almost fell.

Eliminated!

These two are actually fake sisters!

After Xu Xiazhu excitedly left with the 'money for selling herself', Xu Baiwei put away the silver needles. When she turned around, she saw her master standing in the courtyard, looking at the sky with a worried expression.
