Su Xueli didn't stand on ceremony anymore and sweetly said to her second aunt, "Thank you, second aunt. I'll go to the market with you from now on. You're rich and generous."
Second Aunt laughed happily, "Alright, alright, since you've flattered me so much, I guess I'll just have to accept it."
Su Xueli and Yan Yan laughed so hard they bent over.
When it came time to collect money, Yan Yan refused to make any profit from her, only charging the cost price.
The second aunt firmly refused: "Girl, my niece-in-law and I are here to support your business. If you don't make a single penny from us, wouldn't we be taking advantage of you? Sell it to me at the same price you sell it to others. I really don't need that little bit of money."
Su Xueli knew her second aunt's personality, so she said to Yan Yan, "Do as your second aunt says. We can't bear to see you standing here all day, hungry and cold."
Yan Yan had no choice but to accept the money at the original price. Her second aunt put her own portion in a bag and put Su Xueli's portion in a bag for her.
Su Xueli also had the mission of finding out about her cousin's family situation, so she had to return to Taohuawu Village.
So she said to her second aunt, "Second aunt, since we've taken care of everything, you can go home now. I have some things to do at my parents' house. See you tomorrow."
The second aunt asked, "Then you can't stay at your parents' house, you still have to come back to our house at night."
Su Xueli said, "I can't stay at my parents' house. I'll have someone take me there if it gets late. It's fine."
My second aunt said, "Don't let your family take you. It's so cold. I'll go home and tell Mingshen to pick you up."
Su Xueli thought about it and agreed. Why let her own family suffer? Let him suffer instead.
So I agreed.
Second Aunt pulled her headscarf to cover her hair tightly and said, "Then let's go first, Xue Li. It's already afternoon, and it will get cold soon after the sun sets. You and Yan Yan should go back early too."
"Okay, Second Aunt, take care." Su Xueli and Yan Yan waved goodbye to her.
After her second aunt disappeared into the crowd, Yan Yan asked, "This woman is beautiful and has a great presence. She doesn't look like a typical rural woman at all. She doesn't look very young either."
Su Xueli said, "She's forty years old and unmarried, so naturally she doesn't have the air of everyday life."
"Oh, she's forty and still unmarried. What's going on? Oh, I think I've heard of an old maid in your husband's village. Is that her?"
Su Xueli nodded, "It's her. But she's a respectable person, so don't call her that anymore."
Yan Yan immediately apologized, "I misspoke, I will never say that word again."
Su Xueli said, "It's okay, just remember. By the way, I'll help you sell your things, and we'll go home together in a bit."
Yan Yan said happily, "That's great! I'm so happy to have you with me."
Su Xueli noticed a steamed bun in Yan Yan's newspaper and said, "Hurry up and eat the bun, I'll help you sell things."
Yan Yan picked up the steamed bun again, took a big bite, and said, "I haven't had any food since this morning, I'm starving."
Su Xueli asked, "Have you had some hot soup?"
Yan Yan said, "Just now, a woman selling toilet paper over there had her husband buy her some food. I asked him to bring me a bowl of spicy soup. After I finished drinking it, I asked him to give the bowl to the stall owner."
Su Xueli said, "That's good."
He added, "I'll go to the store later to buy a thermos and bring hot water with me. If I don't have time to buy food, I can just drink hot water."
Yan Yan muttered to herself, "Thermos cups are so expensive."
