"Mr. Zhou, who are these two?" Miss Xu's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Chunxiao was gloating in her heart.
Zhou Hongzhi looked embarrassed and said, "No one, just two distant relatives." Zhou Hongzhi winked at Chunxiao, signaling her to leave quickly.
"Husband, remember to come and see me."
Miss Xu's face turned green. "Who is she? Why does she call you husband?"
Chunxiao didn't bother to pay attention to them. The pit had already been dug. Who made him so annoying? She pulled Yan Dashan away without saying a word.
"You were just acting, not real, right?" Today he finally saw his sister's ability to change her face.
"Of course not. There's nothing wrong with me."
"I used to think my brother-in-law was a sensible person. Why is he being so unreasonable today?" Yan Dashan was very confused.
"What brother-in-law? Where did your brother-in-law come from? That guy is totally sick. Just avoid him when you see him next time." Chunxiao felt a little irritated by Zhou Hongzhi's behavior. It was time to go shopping to relieve her depression.
"Then we won't come here to sell charcoal anymore."
"Why not sell charcoal? As long as they buy it, I'll sell it. Who can resist money? Big brother, let's go to the market and buy something and then go back quickly."
The two of them arrived at the market. Someone was selling pears for 9 wen a jin (approximately 100g). Pears are long-lasting, so Chunxiao immediately bought the entire basket of pears from the old woman, a total of 27 jin (approximately 100g). The old woman was overjoyed. After what had happened to Zhou Hongzhi, Yan Dashan knew she was still angry, so he quietly watched her shop without saying anything. Chunxiao also bought a few jin (approximately 100g) of dried mushrooms. She had almost finished her last purchase, and after buying these, she saw someone selling chickens and ran over to ask.
Yan Dashan couldn't help it now, "We have chicken at home. If you want to eat it, let mom get you one. Why buy it here?"
"Aren't the chickens at home meant to lay eggs? If you eat the eggs, there's nothing left to eat."
"Besides the egg-laying hens, there are also roosters, which have to be killed during the Chinese New Year. Besides our second brother's family, there are also some." Dashan was so eager to sell his own chickens that he wanted to spend money to buy chickens. Dashan refused to agree, "If you really want to spend money, it's the same if you use the money and buy it with your second brother."
"You will take my money?" No way! But seeing her brother frowning in disapproval, she didn't buy the chicken in the end.
Seeing someone selling fried peanuts, she bought another bag of fried peanuts and asked, "Brother, when will our pig be slaughtered?"
"Year of the Pig, Year of the Pig, it has to be December at least. What? You want to eat meat? Wasn't it not long ago that we just had it?"
"It's boring to always have one or two pounds of it. I want to pickle more and eat it whenever I want. How delicious."
"Dad said we can either sell the whole pig or butcher it and sell the meat, depending on the situation. You just wait, someone will come to the village to collect the pigs soon. If they are butchered, we can keep some for ourselves this year and have a good and prosperous New Year."
"That's a long wait." Chun Xiao smacked his lips. But on the way out of the market, he ran into people from the village.
