Jiang Baige rode her bicycle quickly to her elder sister's door. Seeing that there was still a candle lit inside, she took out all the things her elder sister wanted.
She didn't know why she suddenly thought of selling fish. They were too difficult to catch, and she had to fill them with water. It took her a while to finally fill them with live fish.
She also took out five more watermelons and a bag of food to send home.
I raised my hand and knocked on the door gently, and someone came out soon.
In addition to the eldest sister, there were two men and one woman who came out.
Seeing clearly through the door that it was Jiang Baige, the eldest sister whispered, "Sister, you're finally here."
As she said that, she opened the door.
Jiang Baige smiled at her and said, "Big sister, hurry up and move the things! They are all here."
When the eldest sister saw the pile of things on the ground, she quickly called her husband and her brother-in-law.
"Come here quickly and move all these into the house."
The moon is very bright tonight, and the pile of things on the ground can be seen clearly.
When a few people saw the pile of things on the ground, they were still shocked.
The eldest sister looked outside and asked, "Where are your companions? Let them come in and have some water!"
She didn't think the little girl could get so many things by herself, she must have come with a companion.
Jiang Baige helped carry it and walked into the house, saying, "It's okay. They are all very thirsty. If they are thirsty, they can drink it when they get home. Don't worry about it."
She just followed her elder sister's words and made up stories. Otherwise, no one would believe that a little girl like her could get so many things.
The things were quickly moved into the house, and they couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the pile of things on the ground.
After the eldest sister took out the things one by one from the sackcloth bag, everyone in the room was surprised.
It’s already this late, and there are still so many dishes.
Moreover, the fish was still alive and kicking, so it shouldn't be easy to catch it.
And where did these watermelons come from? They haven’t seen them in years.
Jiang Baige pointed to a pile of things on the ground and said, "Sister, I have weighed all these. Why don't you weigh them again?"
The eldest sister said happily: "Why bother to weigh it? I will definitely believe you."
"I hope no one else saw us coming this far!"
Jiang Baige shook her head, "No."
This way, the elder sister can rest assured, because they all have jobs, and if they buy things on the black market, they are afraid of being discovered and reported.
She had already prepared the money, but unexpectedly there were several extra watermelons. A few people pooled their money and gave the money to Jiang Baige.
The eldest sister said to her, "Sister, will you come before winter comes? I want to buy some food for the winter."
Jiang Baige really didn't know if she could come. They would have a holiday after harvesting the crops. If she went back to her hometown, she didn't know if she could still come.
She shook her head uncertainly: "I'm really not sure about this. If I can come over, I will come to you."
Listening to them talking, the three people next to them kept silent. Their sister-in-law had some at home and could help them get it.
Jiang Baige handed the package she wanted to send home to her elder sister and said, "This is what I want to send home. Please help me, elder sister."
The elder sister happily took it and said, "Don't worry, I'll send you a fast package tomorrow when I get to work. I guarantee it will arrive at your home in three or four days."
Jiang Baige didn't waste any more time. After talking for a few more words, she rode her bike back to the guesthouse.
The next morning, after breakfast, Jiang Baige and her group checked out of the guesthouse and went to the bus station carrying their bags.
When we got off the bus in the town, we happened to meet an ox cart returning to the village.
Hongxiu, who was returning to the village from her mother's home, was sitting in the ox cart. When she saw their large and small bags and the accountant was there, she got off and gave up the ox cart.
Hongxiu said happily, "Accountant Chen, now that you're back, we can start making candy in the next couple of days."
When she knew that Sun Zhaodi and the others could make candy, she was very envious. This job was easy and there was candy to eat, so she said she didn't want to do it.
The accountant glanced at Hongxiu, coughed a few times, and interrupted Hongxiu before she could ask any more questions.
"You're yelling outside again, wishing everyone knew about it."
Hongxiu didn't care. Wasn't it okay for her to just show off? Their village was going to build a sugar factory! If she didn't say it, others would know it soon.
In the entire Chenjia Village, there are few women who don’t go out to show off.
Jiang Baige had no good impression of Hongxiu. She pursed her lips speechlessly and said, "Let's go! Let's go back."
Siyan was feeling suffocated in the pocket. He groaned and stuck his head out, trying to crawl out.
Hongxiu heard a puppy barking and looked around. "Hey, did you hear anything?"
Jiang Baige took Siyan out of her pocket and said, "He's mine."
Hongxiu's eyes fell on the puppy again. Why raise this? It eats as much as a child.
Jiang Baige didn't want to talk to her, so she didn't answer her.
Seeing that the young educated youth didn't talk to her anymore, Hongxiu went to the front to talk to someone.
The ox cart was moving faster than them and had already returned to the village.
The last people left were only Chen Jianguo and Jiang Baige. They walked slowly towards the village with a puppy.
Chen Jianguo looked at Jiang Baige and said, "Villagers are just like that. Don't take it too seriously."
Jiang Baige listened to his words but didn't care. These people had nothing to do with her.
Chen Jianguo stammered again, "We'll be home soon. I'll tell my parents about us. Will you be angry?"
Jiang Baige didn't say anything. After a while, she said, "Okay."
Chen Jianguo happily picked up Siyan and held her hand.
"Let's go home."
On the other side, when they heard that the ox cart had brought back a large load of things, all the adults and children in the village ran to see.
With these things, their village is going to build a factory, and everyone is of course very excited.
Chen Defu and the accountant put all the things in the yard, and people came to watch.
They came not only to watch the fun, but also to have jobs. This sugar factory would definitely need people.
They all wanted to recommend themselves and their family members.
There were so many people, but no one took the lead to speak out, but Chen Defu had already seen through their little thoughts.
So he looked at them and said, "Everyone, go back first! We still need to hold a meeting to discuss the next matter. Once we have the results, we will naturally inform everyone."
After hearing what the village chief said, no one said anything. After watching the excitement for a while, they left one after another.
Hongxiu looked at the things on the ground and thought it would be great if she could work in a sugar factory.
When Chen Jianguo and the others came back, the people in the yard had already left.
The two of them walked in together, and Chen Defu and Zhou Xiuying looked at them at the same time.
