"Thank you, Sister Wang. What would you like to exchange it for?"
"Hey, do you still have that floral fabric your little one wore last time? I want to make a little dress for my old maid."
Sister Wang has her share of minor flaws, but she doesn't discriminate against girls. She has two sons and two daughters, and she treats them all equally. She doesn't say that all the good things are given to the sons and the daughters don't get anything.
"Sister Wang, let me make this clear beforehand: the fabric I have is defective, not the good fabric I bought from the supply and marketing cooperative."
"What are you saying? Although your sister Wang likes to take advantage of small things, she knows what she's doing. She knows how little those fruit trees are worth. If it weren't for the fact that some of them will bear fruit next year, how could she have the nerve to ask to exchange them for fabric? Wouldn't that be shameless? She's the one who's getting the defective fabric."
"No way, everyone here knows that Sister Wang's fruit is delicious, so many people are eyeing it."

The vegetables in the space have matured: persimmons, cucumbers, green beans, potatoes, eggplants... These are common vegetables in the north, but not so common in Yunnan Province. Not only are there few vegetables from the north, but there aren't many other homegrown vegetables either. If they aren't grown properly, they will rot and die before they mature.
The plants that Yu Yin and the others planted in the yard, although not as lush as those in the space, still survived, and some even bloomed. However, there weren't as many flowers as in the space, which was largely thanks to Yu Yin's frequent watering with spiritual spring water; otherwise, they would have rotted away.
I made white rice for lunch, stir-fried a plate of water spinach, and stir-fried a plate of mixed mushrooms with garlic slices. They were all light and suitable for Lu Shurui's diet.
After finishing her meal, Lu Shurui cleaned up the dishes and pulled weeds from the vegetable garden before rushing back to school for a meeting that afternoon.
Just then, Yu Yin also took her two children out early to go to the grain depot to find Sister Wenying.
