The reason why Zhou Yuanyuan had been staying at Zhou Hongxing's house was that it was more convenient for her to stay at home except for Zhou Hongxing's parents. More importantly, she did not want to see Cai Anan.
"Roly Poly, go to sleep first. I have something to tell my brother.”
"Okay, don't make things difficult for Brother Hongbing. He doesn't want to do this.”After Zhou Yuanyuan finished speaking, she went back to her room. She shared a room with Zhou Hongxing and slept on the same bed. They were so close that it was as if they were one person.
When Zhou Hongxing saw Zhou Yuanyuan enter the house, she softened her tone towards Zhou Hongbing,""Brother, don't be so dejected. Just bear with it. With that idiot Zhou Yuanyuan helping us, you will get Cai Anan sooner or later.”
"I'm afraid that after the first time, Cai Anan will be on guard and it will be even harder to make a move in the future.”
"There's always a way. It's just a matter of time. Aren't you determined to get Cai Anan?”
"How could I? Would I lose to a fool?”Zhou Hongbing's lips curled into a sarcastic smile, his eyes filled with malice.
Cai Anan, this little bitch, why did she pretend to be a chaste woman? He would never let her off.
……
When Cai Anan woke up the next day, her body was sore. Her injuries had worsened overnight.
She put on her clothes and moved around on the ground a few times before she slowly got used to the pain.
She didn't have time to calculate how much money she had earned yesterday, but now she had to calculate it. The cantaloupes were sold at one yuan per catty. There were a total of twelve catties. After deducting the extra catty given to the customers, she could sell them for ten yuan per catty.
There were 400 pears, 200 big ones and 200 small ones. The big ones could be sold for 10 yuan, and the small ones could be sold for 5 yuan. Including the 5 yuan deposit that Old Li gave her, she had a total of 30 yuan yesterday!
She had spent 2.20 yuan to cut the meat, so she still had 27.80 yuan left!
She poured out the money in the bag and counted it. Not a single cent was missing.
Xue Guixiang came in to ask her to eat. When she saw the money piled up on the bed, her eyes widened. She was not a money-grubber, but she could not believe that her daughter-in-law had so much money.
"Mom, come here quickly!" Cai Anan called out to her with a smile.”
"Anan, where did the money come from?" Xue Guixiang asked.”
"Mom, don't worry. I earned all this money.”Cai Anan told him about the time she sold pears near the cotton processing plant.
Xue Guixiang's eyes were wide open. If this continued, she would earn 20 yuan a day, and her daughter-in-law would earn 600 yuan a month. Wouldn't that be more than what a government official could earn?
Her heart was beating fast. She couldn't believe that it was true.
Cai Anan saw that Xue Guixiang was breathing heavily and was afraid that she would be agitated."Mom, you have to hold on. This is just the beginning. I'll earn more money in the future!”
Cai Anan didn't know how far she could go, but she believed that she could definitely make her family live a good life.
Only then did Xue Guixiang know that her daughter-in-law was not bragging.
"Mom, I told the people at the cotton processing factory yesterday that I would deliver pears to them today. I'll go out with Zhou Jin to collect pears later.”
"Hey, I'll go get some rice for you.”Xue Guixiang felt as if she was in a dream. Her footsteps were light as she walked.
Breakfast was still the same, corn porridge, biscuits, and pickles.
Today's pickles were sprinkled with sesame oil. The smell was very fragrant and could arouse one's appetite.
Cai Anan, on the other hand, was biting her chopsticks and thinking about something. She did not touch the food in front of her at all.
Xue Guixiang thought that she couldn't eat and asked with concern,"Anan, what's wrong? Are you sick?”
"I'm fine. Do you know anyone in the village who has a pear tree?”
Xue Guixiang thought for a moment." There's no pear tree in the village, but more than half of the people in your uncle's village plant pear trees."”
"Mom, can you bring me to Uncle's village after dinner? I'm going to harvest pears.”
"Alright." Xue Guixiang readily agreed.
Xue Guixiang's hands and feet were nimble, and she quickly packed up the pots and bowls. The three of them pushed the cart and set off.
On the way, they passed by the town's supply and marketing cooperative. Cai Anan insisted on going there to buy something for her uncle's house.
Cai Anan entered the supply and marketing cooperative. Inside, a male salesperson wearing a cap was playing with an abacus. When he saw someone enter, he just raised his eyelids.
It was up to him whether he wanted to buy it or not. Anyway, he did not lack a customer. Even if he did not sell anything, he would still receive a salary of 24 yuan at the end of the month!
Cai Anan asked the salesperson if there were any cigarettes and pastries that did not require tickets. She heard that the people in the supply and marketing cooperative would usually use their position to save up some scarce materials and sell them to others privately to make money.
