Chapter 116, Exchange Completed
Su Xiao handed the basket over, and Aunt Wu took it and walked directly to the vegetable garden next to her.
The basket was full of cowpeas, eggplants, cucumbers, and large winter melons.
Aunt Wu looked at it, then took two more eggs from the chicken coop and put them in.
"Take these, they're all fresh. They won't spoil even after a few days. Come back to me when you've finished eating them."
Su Xiao was very satisfied. It was only comfortable to deal with this kind of person. It was worth spending half a day wandering around yesterday and choosing this family to come in.
"Okay, I'll definitely come back to see you after I finish eating. Thank you, Auntie." Su Xiao took the basket, smiled, and said goodbye.
She will definitely come looking for her again. This Aunt Wu is quite fair in her dealings. The value of the items she exchanged was far greater than expected. She is someone she can keep in touch with long-term.
Carrying a basket and humming a little tune, she walked briskly towards the educated youth compound.
"Xiaoxiao." A few people came out from the side path. It was Fang Minghao and his group returning. Fang Minghao ran towards her first and took the basket. "What are you carrying? Let me help you. Ouch, it's quite heavy."
Su Xiao's hands were indeed tired, mainly because there was a large winter melon inside, which weighed her down.
"So many dishes, and eggs too."
"Yes, I traded with an old lady in the village, so I guarantee it's fresh. I'll have vegetables for the next few days."
Su Xiao raised her chin with a touch of pride. Her grand gesture of exchanging vegetables today was to make this a public announcement, so that she could later mix vegetables from her spatial storage with other vegetables and achieve vegetable freedom.
"Oh my, my little one is so capable!" Shu Bowen raised his chin with pride, his face beaming.
"What did you exchange it for?" Shang Ziming's focus was always different.
"A packet of brown sugar," Su Xiao answered without much thought.
"Hmm, I have two cans of malted milk powder left, I'll give them to you in a bit."
Su Xiao suddenly realized, and then quickly refused, "No need, I also have malted milk powder. Your health isn't good, you need to supplement it more, keep it for yourself."
Hmm, how could she take nutritional supplements meant for a sick person?
Shang Ziming's gaze darkened, and his tightly pursed lips revealed his unhappiness.
Is the little girl complaining that he's not in good health?
No one spoke for a moment, and before they knew it, the two had fallen to the very back.
Su Xiao belatedly realized that she might have said something wrong, and quickly tried to make amends.
"Um, that's not what I meant. I meant I don't need it, you can keep it and drink it slowly, uh... I'm just worried about your health, uh..."
Su Xiao racked her brains to explain, but the more she explained, the less clear it became, and she felt somewhat defeated.
Seeing Su Xiao's anxious and helpless appearance, Shang Ziming smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, tell me slowly."
He can interpret it as her caring about him, right?
Su Xiao patted her forehead in annoyance, then noticed the smile in his eyes, which calmed her anxiety. She then fell silent.
Say it, say it, we're home now, let's hurry up and cook dinner.
Su Xiao took a handful of cowpeas and two eggplants, intending to braise them together.
I cooked another pot of egg drop soup.
"Alright, everyone's ready, let's eat." Su Xiao called out, and immediately the men took bowls and chopsticks, serving dishes and rice in one go.
Su Xiao sat there waiting, all smiles.
They've already started eating here, while the other pots haven't even started smoking yet.
"Wow, we're already getting eggs on our first day at the farm..."
The sudden remark made the air in the entire kitchen freeze.
