Xiang Baiwei has been used to doing this kind of work since she was a child, so her movements are very skillful.

With her help, the remaining sweet potatoes were soon turned into sweet potato strips.

The two of them worked together to dry the sweet potato strips, and then went to the wall to dig a radish cellar.

After covering the radishes, Jiang Sui held the hoe and asked Xiang Baiwei casually, "You spent a lot of money today to buy so many radishes and those vegetables, right?"

Xiang Baiwei, who was happily planning to go to the free market next time, waved her hand generously: "It doesn't cost much, but I still have this."

From the tone of his voice, you can tell that he made a lot of money today.

Jiang Sui was amused by her behavior, and then he subtly tested Bai Wei: "Why don't you touch the family's money? It's not easy for you to keep some private money. When you buy things like this in the future, use the money I put in the cabinet. I put it there because I want to use it together with you. Don't be so formal with me."

Xiang Baiwei was naturally afraid that he would talk to her about money again, and was even more afraid that he would notice something was wrong because of her reaction, so she just casually brushed him off with some "hmm" and "ah".

In fact, Jiang Sui really saw Xiang Baiwei's perfunctory attitude towards this issue.

In order to prevent Xiang Baiwei from feeling nervous, Jiang Sui cooperated with her and acted out the scene with her.

That night, Xiang Baiwei entered the space again while sleeping.

She looked at the six full bags of peanuts that she had already sorted out, and then at the still large number of fish in the fish pond, and decided to make a few more trips to the free market.

Three days later.

After Xiang Baiwei stayed in the town for an afternoon, she found the same street she had visited last time.

Almost as soon as she entered, someone approached her: "Are you the little girl selling fish last time?"

Xiang Baiwei became alert and did not respond immediately when she saw the man approaching her.

She didn't dare to make any response before confirming the other party's identity.

The man seemed to understand what Xiang Baiwei was worried about and smiled: "I've been waiting for you for a few days. The fish you have are very good. Can you sell them all to me? I think it's troublesome for you to sell several at a time. Why don't you sort them all out and sell them to me."

"What do you need so much fish for?"

Xiang Baiwei still had doubts in his mind. In this era and in this place, there was no way there was a refrigerator. He wanted to take away so many fish at one time and it would be impossible to handle them all in a short time.

Are you trying to trick me on purpose?

Xiang Baiwei became more and more frightened the more she thought about it. She turned her head to observe the surroundings, trying to see if she would have enough time to run away.

The man was a smart guy. He noticed that Xiang Baiwei was scared, so he quickly put his hands behind his back and took a step away: "I'll stay away from you. Will you feel relieved now?"

Xiang Baiwei still looked at him warily without saying anything.

The man was the first to lose his patience. As it was getting darker, he seemed to be in a hurry to leave. “I have my own way of dealing with those fish. How many fish do you have left?”

"More than 200."

Xiang Baiwei made up her mind and decided to do something big, "Are you sure you can handle so many fish?"

"Why do you care if I buy so much? Just tell me where to deliver the goods!"

Two hundred fish are really hard to handle.

Xiang Baiwei lowered her head and hesitated for a while, and thought of a not-so-perfect plan in her mind: "I will come to you at this time tomorrow, and I will take you to get the fish."

The man was also straightforward: "Okay, I'm taking so many fish at once, how about charging me 30 cents per pound?"

Xiang Baiwei frowned, somewhat unhappy. Thirty cents was too cheap and was almost the same as the price outside.

The man saw her hesitation and said, "35 cents, I want so much at once, you have to give me some value, right?"

Xiang Baiwei looked at the man who was very good at bargaining and struggled for two minutes: "Forty cents, my fish is of high quality. You may not be able to buy such good ones in the city."

These words hit the nail on the man's mind. The reason why he bought all the fish at once was because he saw that the quality of the fish in Xiang Baiwei's hands was indeed superior.

"Okay, okay, then I'll charge 40 cents per pound. It's settled. I'll come with the money and people at this time tomorrow. You must prepare the fish."

After seeing Bai Wei nod in agreement, the man turned around, called his companions, and left.

Xiang Baiwei, who was absent-minded, found her elder brother who came to the town to deliver something at the supply and marketing cooperative restaurant. The two of them drove a mule cart to Xiangjia Village together.

On the way, Xiang Weiguo looked at Xiang Baiwei who hadn't said much: "Sanni, what's wrong with you? Why are you so depressed along the way? Are you unhappy? Talk to your brother if you have something to say."

"No, I'm just a little sleepy and don't feel like talking."

Xiang Baiwei pulled the large cotton-padded jacket next to her and put it on Xiang Weiguo, "You just won't wear the cotton-padded jacket your mother prepared for you. Aren't you cold?"

"Put it on, big brother won't be cold."

Xiang Weiguo smiled, refused the cotton-padded jacket, then shouted and accelerated the speed of the carriage.

When I got home, Jiang Suiren was standing at the door waiting for me.

Seeing someone coming from afar, Jiang Sui trotted over and said, "Brother, have you eaten yet? The food is still warm at home. Do you want to eat at home before leaving?"

Xiang Baiwei also tried to persuade Xiang Weiguo to stay.

Xiang Weiguo shook his head: "No, I have to go back quickly. If I don't go back soon, my parents will be worried."

"Brother, be careful on your way back."

The couple saw Xiang Weiguo off, and Jiang Sui helped Xiang Baiwei bring up the food.

Xiang Baiwei, who had been busy selling fish in the free market and was already starving, sat down at the table, took the bowl and chopsticks, and started eating.

Jiang Sui closed the doors and windows, locked the front door, and brought hot water to Xiang Baiwei, ready for her to wash her face and feet.

After finishing all the work, Jiang Sui took out the book he had not finished reading during the day, and read his own book while accompanying Xiang Baiwei.

Afterwards, Xiang Baiwei remembered what she had discussed with the man in the free market, and felt that she had to find a reason to explain to Jiang Sui.

Otherwise, Jiang Sui would definitely feel uneasy if he had to run to the town every few days.

"I want to take some time to go to town to fluff the two bags of cotton we have at home, and then make two new quilts for the winter."

Jiang Sui, who was reading a book, heard this and said, "Hmm," and then said, "Then I'll go with you."

"No... no need, I can do it myself. Are you going to the machinery factory tomorrow?"

Jiang Sui withdrew his gaze from the book and looked at Xiang Baiwei, who was eating at the table and talking to him at the same time: "You don't have to go. There's nothing urgent. Do you want to use the bicycle?"

Xiang Baiwei nodded and said, "My eldest brother is not going to town tomorrow. I think it's faster to go back and forth by bicycle. If it's too late, I'm a little scared to go alone."

"Then go by bike. If you're worried it'll be too late, I'll borrow another bike to go with you."
