"Stop thief! Stop thief!"
Xiuxiu put down the sturgeon in her hand and wanted to chase after it, but Lu Fangfang quickly stopped her.
Looking ahead, she sensed that the man was seriously injured, and she dared not let Xiuxiu chase after him.
"Xiuxiu, let it go. It's the New Year, let him go."
If we try to get it back, it would be disgusting if they clung to us.
"Pah! You've got some nerve, daring to steal from us. My little donkey will bite you to death!"
Xiuxiu spat, then turned around and petted the little wild donkey.
Lu Fangfang also reached out and patted the donkey's head hard.
That stubborn little donkey is really clever; it chased after the person who had run away and kicked them hard, almost making her die laughing.
"Little stubborn donkey, well done. When we get home, I'll reward you with two bowls of delicious food."
"Oh...ah..."
The little wild donkey was a little smug. It brayed at Lu Fangfang, then turned its head and licked the goose.
"Giggle~"
The big white goose was startled and quickly flapped its wings.
"Want some braised goose in an iron pot? No way, it hasn't snowed yet."
Lu Fangfang looked up and saw that it was another sunny day.
She took out a handful of crushed corn and stuffed it into the little wild donkey's mouth.
"Girl, that little donkey is really amazing."
Beside her, Wang Shufen was quite amazed. She put down what she was holding and also touched the little wild donkey.
"Sister Shufen, don't let its silly appearance fool you. When it gets serious, it's incredibly powerful. Mingcheng took it to hunt wild animals before, and it even maimed a jackal and killed a wolf."
Lu Fangfang recounted the little wild donkey's experiences.
She turned her head and glanced at the little wild donkey. Seeing that it was wagging its tail proudly while she was talking, she couldn't help but smile and stroke the donkey's head.
This gluttonous donkey seems to know that I'm praising it.
"Beep beep~"
As they were talking, Lu Fangfang heard a car horn.
She turned around and saw that it was the regiment's large Liberation truck that had arrived, carrying the wives from the family compound.
"Xiao Lu? Sister-in-law Shufen? You're here so early?"
"Oh, having a donkey cart is so convenient! Xiao Lu, have you bought everything?"
"Wow, so much meat and fish! Xiao Lu, you really bought a lot."
"Yes, yes, look at this meat, it's really fatty, it's really good."
The women jumped off the large Liberation truck and gathered around.
Their eyes lit up when they saw the things on the donkey cart.
This pork has fat on it, and it looks very appealing.
"These belong to our three families, and Lan Ying's sister-in-law is also among them..."
Lu Fangfang explained, glancing at the contents of the cart and donkey. It seemed quite substantial, which explained why the man had harbored such wicked thoughts earlier.
Seeing her sisters-in-law gathered around her, she quickly added, "By the way, sisters-in-law, the meat in the market is almost gone. You should hurry and line up, or there will only be lean meat left!"
"Oh! Xiao Lu, I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it."
Wang Meijun slapped her thigh, turned around and ran away.
Ahead, Sun Manling and several other sisters-in-law skipped the crowd and rushed into the market early.
The women following behind immediately regretted it; watching the commotion had delayed their meat purchase, and that was bad enough.
Lu Fangfang called out to Sister Shufen and Xiuxiu, and prepared to go in to buy some more groceries.
With the group's driver present this time, the items on her donkey cart were much safer.
After greeting the driver, Liu, the group quickly entered the market.
The market was even more crowded, almost packed with people; she felt like most of the county had come.
Lu Fangfang turned her head and saw that her sisters-in-law were all lining up.
She asked Xiuxiu to buy two more fish, while she went to the condiment shop and bought two bottles of soy sauce and vinegar.
After buying groceries, the three of them went to the department store.
With her baby due next year, Lu Fangfang went to the fabric counter to buy a piece of cloth to make some clothes for her unborn child.
"Xiuxiu, take a look and see if there's anything you like. It's almost Chinese New Year, I'll make you a new jacket."
"No need, sis, I have some."
Xiuxiu looked at the floral fabric on the counter, feeling a little embarrassed.
Lu Fangfang glanced in the direction Xiuxiu was looking and smiled as she asked the sales clerk to bring her the floral fabric.
The two touched it and examined it carefully. Seeing that the quality was good, they decided to cut a few feet.
"Xiuxiu, don't be so polite with me. I'll make it for you when we get back."
"Sister, can you save this fabric for me? I'm still growing, and I might not be able to wear it when I get taller."
Xiuxiu touched the floral fabric, still feeling a little reluctant to part with it.
"Silly girl, you can just alter it when you grow taller."
Lu Fangfang looked at Xiuxiu. She had only been here for a little over two months, but her face had become much rosier. If she received some more nutrition, she would definitely grow taller.
After cutting the cloth, the two went to buy some candy and snacks.
The department store was packed with people. After shopping for so long, Lu Fangfang's legs were aching terribly, so she asked Xiuxiu to buy her some things. She took the fabrics and some snacks and candies and went outside.
The little wild donkey remained faithfully guarding the donkey cart. When it saw Lu Fangfang come out, it quickly went to greet her.
Lu Fangfang hung the snacks and candies around the little wild donkey's neck, then helped it back to the donkey cart.
This was the first time she had been this tired since the beginning of winter, but seeing the donkey cart full of New Year's goods, a smile appeared on her face again.
This year, his family will have a prosperous New Year. They'll kill a chicken when they get back, and then they'll have plenty to eat.
"Slap, slap, slap..."
In the distance, children are setting off firecrackers on the street.
