"Hey? Come back!" Zhen Yang immediately tried to grab Zhen Yue.

Zhen Yue had already walked out, "Qiao Da, shall we go back?" She pretended to be aggrieved, "Our family members look down on us, and they also look down on the vegetables we grow. Forget it, we won't come here anymore, let's go back."

"Qiao Da, pick up the child and let's go back."

Qiao Chao immediately grabbed little Achu from Zhen Lin's arms and was about to follow her out.

Zhen Lin immediately stood up and held Zhen Yue, "Hey? What do you dislike? You must have misunderstood me. I definitely didn't mean that."

Zhen Yang came over and said, "I said what I brought was not worth twenty cents. I didn't say anything."

Zhen Yue: "Isn't this just disgust? Which is more important, money or my daughter? Forget it, no need to say more..." Zhen Yue looked heartbroken, "I'm already a married daughter, I shouldn't have come back. Let's go, Qiao Da."

Zhen Lin pulled Zhen Yue and gave Zhen Yang a look, "No, it's not like that. Don't we know how welcome we are to have our little sister back?" Zhen Lin looked at the others.

Zhen Yue's elder brother Zhen Gong said, "You know mom, she has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She cares about you."

Zhen Yue: "Really? But mother asked me to give her twenty cents."

Zhen Gong pulled Zhen Yangshi and said, "Mom, you said you didn't mean that at all."

Seeing her son's expression, Zhen Yang immediately said, "Okay, okay, I never asked you for twenty cents. Forget it, just give me the basket." At least there was still meat in it.

Zhen Lin came over and asked, "What did you bring here, little sister?"

Zhen Yue smiled and said, "Just some vegetables and radishes grown at home."

Zhen Lin's face changed. Didn't mother say that my younger sister would bring back good things? Why did she only bring back some vegetables?

But she quickly regained her smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay. We just don't have much food at home. Oh, and we need to prepare lunch. We can stew the radishes that my little sister brought back."

Zhen Yue also smiled, "Sister-in-law are so nice. Let me go and help." Zhen Yue gave Qiao Chao a look to let him sit back, and then went to the kitchen with her sisters-in-law.

It's impossible to cook, I can only help out a little bit.

Qiao Chao was holding little Ah Chu and sitting on the side. Zhen Gong asked him, "Didn't you say your family bought a donkey? Why didn't you drive the donkey cart over?"

Qiao Chao: "My second brother and his wife's parents' home is quite far away, so I asked my second brother and his wife to drive back."

"Is that so, brother-in-law, tell me the truth, what exactly is your family doing that makes so much money?"

Qiao Chao looked innocent, "Ah? I just sold some vegetables. Ah Yue asked me to go to the county town to sell vegetables at midnight every day. I had to go out almost every night and come back in the afternoon. It was hard-earned money."

Zhen Gong frowned, "Are you really just selling vegetables?"

Qiao Chao scratched his head, "Otherwise, our family doesn't know what to do? Or do you have a good way to make money, big brother?"

Zhen Gong: "Then how do you sell it?"

Qiao Chao: "I brought the vegetables to the county town and sold them on the street. I shouted and sold them." He was not lying, although he had only sold them on the street once.

Zhen Gong: “That’s it?”

Qiao Chao: "Yeah, that's it. The county town is more lively and has more people."

Zhen Yue's second brother Zhen Gu said, "Brother, what do you think about us selling vegetables as well?"

Zhen Gong nudged him with his knee, then looked at Qiao Chao, "Brother-in-law, we are not trying to steal your business. We just want everyone to make money based on their own abilities, right?"

Qiao Chao blinked, "Ah, it's okay." Anyway, you probably can't grow the vegetables that Zhen Yue can grow, and they don't just sell vegetables.

In the kitchen on the other side, Zhen Yue's sister-in-law was picking radishes. "Little sister? Why are the radishes you grow so big?"

Zhen Yue: "Haha, how else can we sell it?"

Zhen Linshi: "Are you really selling vegetables?"

Zhen Yue: "Sister-in-law, it's true. Selling vegetables is very hard work. You have to get up early and go out early."

Zhen Lin: "Really? It doesn't matter if it's hard work as long as I can make money."

Zhen Yue: "Well, although I made a little money, I also owe a lot of money. The food at home seems to be just enough to eat. So I only brought a pound of rice and flour. Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, you should not mind."

Zhen Lin forced a smile, "Haha, I don't mind." But secretly rolled her eyes, she wouldn't complain about having to borrow money and rice and flour later, would she? She asked what good things her younger sister could bring back, and mother said there must be good things.

Now the good stuff is just these radishes and vegetables. The vegetables are indeed fresh, the radishes are indeed big, the meat is a small piece, and the rice and flour are only one pound. She should bring at least two pounds of rice and flour when she goes back to her parents' home, okay?

Isn't my little sister's mother-in-law too stingy? She might as well give me the fabric for the child's clothes.

The food was soon ready, and as Joe spoke towards them he could smell a delicious aroma.

"It smells so good, mother and the others must have prepared dinner. Brother-in-law, let's go and eat."

"it is good."

Entering the kitchen, on the table, there was a pot of stewed radish, a pot of stir-fried vegetables, two large pots of stir-fried pickles, a pot of dry pancakes of unknown origin, a large pot of very watery egg soup, and a bowl of unknown sauce without any oil or water... The dishes and chopsticks looked dirty, and I had no appetite at all.

Qiao Chao hadn’t eaten such a bad diet for a long time...he wasn’t that hungry.

“So many dishes? My little sister has to be here, otherwise we can’t eat like this on a normal day.” Zhen Yue’s fourth brother Zhen Qiu said.

Zhen Yue & Qiao Chao: ...More than a dozen people only eat this little bit. They don’t even cook the meat they brought?

Each person had a bowl of porridge. Zhen Dawei had to pick up his chopsticks first before the others could do the same. "This radish is so delicious! Mom, it's much better than usual," Zhen Qiu said.

Zhen Yang: "Isn't it just the same as usual?" She picked up a piece of radish and found that it was indeed different from usual. Others also noticed that these radishes were brought by Zhen Yue and she stewed two of them.

Not only the radishes, but also the green vegetables were brought by Zhen Yue. They were even more delicious than what they had eaten before, very crisp and sweet.

Zhen Yue said, "This is the radish I brought from home."

Zhen Lin: "Little sister, is this the kind of radishes and greens your family sells?"

Zhen Yue: "Yeah. That's it."

Zhen Lin smiled and said, "How did you grow them? And they look pretty big to me. By the way, how much do you sell them for per kilo?"

Zhen Yue: "They are carefully taken care of. You have to watch them all day long and make them fat. The things that are sold must be carefully taken care of. Nowadays, small green vegetables sell for several coins per pound."

As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked. "Several coins? So expensive? Can it be sold?"

Zhen Yue: "If you can't sell them, just take them home and eat them. The vegetables in my house are so fresh. It's not easy in such a cold weather."

There really aren't many fresh vegetables in the winter, so it doesn't seem to be a problem if they're a little more expensive, but...

"Girl, how do you grow such delicious vegetables in the middle of winter?"

Zhen Yue: "I told you to take good care of them. I kept them in the house because I was afraid they would be cold. Sometimes we even had to use firewood to keep warm. I only grew a little bit."

Zhen Lin: "Is that so? Then our family will learn from you."

Zhen Yue: “Yeah.”

Zhen Yue only ate the radish and vegetables and did not touch the rest. The whole family quickly snatched up the radish and vegetables, even the soup. Later, even the pickles were eaten up, not to mention the egg soup, which was long gone.

Zhen Yue was not full, but there was nothing she could do. She went to Zhen Yang's room to feed little Achu, and then she and Qiao Chao proposed to leave.
