Around 4 a.m., Lin Xiaoxiao heard noises from the next room and knew that Han Qiushi was going to town. She got up sleepily and groggily took a few pancakes from the kitchen (in her spatial dimension). "These were made yesterday. Eat them with hot water."
Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao looked extremely sleepy, Han Qiushi prepared breakfast for himself. He felt a surge of heat in his heart, even though he hadn't actually drunk any deer blood.
He finally couldn't help but pat Lin Xiaoxiao's head: "You don't need to get up so early anymore. I won't starve myself."
"Go back to your room quickly, I'll be back before I go to work."
Feeling a shadow and force cast over her head, Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Han Qiushi, confused. When she met Han Qiushi's burning gaze, she felt as if she had been scalded and immediately looked away, saying vaguely, "Then be careful yourself. I'm going back to sleep."
When it got light, Lin Xiaoxiao got up and steamed some buns and made a cup of malted milk powder. Just as she sat down to eat, she heard Han Qiushi returning.
I knew that the male wild boar was heavy, but I didn't expect it to weigh nearly 300 pounds.
Han Qiushi didn't know where he sold it from, but he sold a pound of wild boar meat for 80 cents, and he got 225 yuan. The first thing he did when he came into the kitchen was not to clean himself up, but to happily hand the money to Lin Xiaoxiao: "You can decide what to do with this money. If you want to buy something, you can take it from here."
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't stand on ceremony when she heard this. She took the money and nodded, saying, "Hurry up and get ready. Come and have dinner with us. I'll make you a cup of malted milk powder."
Han Qiushi watched Lin Xiaoxiao accept the money calmly, but was very concerned about whether he would be hungry. His face turned slightly red, as if he was thinking of something. "Okay, I'll go now."
After breakfast, Han Qiushi went to work in the fields, while Lin Xiaoxiao carried a basket on her back to meet up with the children to cut pig feed.
Lin Xiaoxiao saw a group of children talking to an adult from afar.
As she approached, she realized that Wan Qing was carrying a basket and intended to give candy to the children. However, the children were standing there, looking conflicted, unsure whether they should take the candy or not.
The children were most excited when they saw the candy, and many of them reached out to take it. When Da Niu saw this, he shouted, "The pretty lady will give us candy later, so don't take this lady's candy."
For a moment the children hesitated, their outstretched hands frozen in mid-air.
Wan Qing was furious when she saw this. She felt inferior to Lin Xiaoxiao even though Lin Xiaoxiao wasn't around: "My candy is imported. How could Lin Xiaoxiao bring out something like this?"
"You're lucky you met me, otherwise you would never have had the chance to eat this candy in your entire lives."
Da Niu snorted heavily. He had heard his grandmother say at home that this Wan Zhiqing was not a good person and that he had made things difficult for the pretty lady as soon as he arrived. He was not going to eat this candy.
"Then you can keep it for yourself, I don't care."
"You...you brat, do you even know what 'imported' means?"
"I kindly shared some food with you, and you didn't even give me face. You're destined to be worthless!!" Wan Qing said angrily.
Wan Qing was too tired from work yesterday. Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao only had to cut pig feed every day, she wanted to do the same job.
This job is not only easy, but it also doesn't involve being in the sun. I heard that if you give the kids candy, they'll help with the work.
It's just candy, isn't it? She has plenty of candy here, and it's even imported candy that she brought with her. She thought that if she gave the children good things to eat, they would know to be good to her and would work for her. In the future, Lin Xiaoxiao would have to work hard all by herself.
Who knew that none of them would take the candy? Lin Xiaoxiao must have taught them all of this.
Wan Qing lowered his head, silently adding Lin Xiaoxiao to his mental notion.
At this moment, the children quickly spotted Lin Xiaoxiao walking from a distance. Da Niu led the way and ran over, and the children behind him followed suit.
"Beautiful lady, you're here!"
"Wow, you look so beautiful today, sister."
"Today I can also help my sister cut pig feed."
"I can help my sister carry her basket."
Hearing the children's praise and their enthusiastic help, Lin Xiaoxiao smiled gently. Da Niu waved to Lin Xiaoxiao, asking her to bend down.
Lin Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow and leaned in to listen, and heard Da Niu give a brief account of what had just happened.
Lin Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes slightly upon hearing this, glanced at Wan Qing, and thought, "What imported candy? It's like she's the only one who has it and I don't."
She hadn't expected the children to defend her so strongly. It seemed she had already built a friendship with them, and it wasn't something that could be swayed by a few words or a piece of candy from others.
"Who said you can't have imported candy? What a coincidence! I brought imported candy with me. As long as you all behave well today, I'll give you candy." Lin Xiaoxiao said to the children with a smile.
"real?"
"Do pretty ladies also have imported candy?"
"Yay! I can eat imported candy!"
"Of course it's true." Lin Xiaoxiao immediately took out an imported candy from her pocket (space) and held it up for them to see: "Look, isn't this what that person just gave you?"
"yes."
"Really?"
“I said I have it, and I mean I do. But on the condition that I give you this, you have to behave well today,” Lin Xiaoxiao emphasized.
"This candy isn't actually very expensive. As long as you study hard, or if you don't know how to study, work hard and do things diligently. Once you leave the village, you'll be able to eat this candy in the future."
"The place that sells the candy isn't far at all. You can buy it when you get to our city, or where you'll go to university in the future. Study hard, and when you get to a big city, not only will you be able to enjoy this candy, but your family will be able to enjoy it too."
