There was still a bowl of untouched conch meat on the stove. She took a few bites and turned to look at the three little ones. "Mother, go send some to Aunt Jiang's house. You guys eat it first."

Speaking of which, it seems that Aunt Jiang's family has a cart, but no cow.

However, even a cart is very precious in farmers' homes and will not be lent out easily.

"Knockknock——"

"Who-"

As soon as Aunt Jiang came out of the inner room, she heard someone knocking on the door.

It was early in the morning and their door was still closed, so why was someone knocking on the door now?

With a skeptical heart, Aunt Jiang still walked to the front door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Bai Qingyao standing outside.

She was slightly stunned, her expression not saying much good, but not bad either. After a while, she spoke stiffly.

"What's up so early in the morning?"

Bai Qingyao looked at her with a smile and said, "Aunt Jiang, I picked up some seafood at the beach this morning and brought it to you for freshness."

Aunt Jiang looked at her, and seeing this, Bai Qingyao continued speaking.

"Don't be so quick to refuse. Actually, I came here this morning and there's something I want to discuss with you."

Aunt Jiang calmly withdrew her gaze and opened the door. "Come in."

After opening the door, Aunt Jiang took the things in her hand and asked her to sit down in the yard. She turned around and poured her a bowl of water before sitting down.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Aunt Jiang, this is the case. I'd like to rent your cart for a few days. Is that okay with you?"

"Trolley?"

What does she use this for? What work does the Gu family have to do recently?

"I need to raise a child, but I can't just sit there and eat up all the food. I was thinking of finding some oysters by the sea and buying them in town..."

The fact that she was selling oysters would definitely become unavoidable after a while, not to mention that Aunt Jiang was her neighbor, so it was even more difficult to hide it. It would be better for her to tell the truth herself.

Besides, even if she told them that oysters could be sold for money, the most important thing about eating oysters is her exclusive dipping sauce. Without it, you will get sick of eating too many oysters.

When Aunt Jiang heard this, she looked at her and said, "Okay, I'll ask Dahu to pack it up and send it to you later."

"Thank you, Aunt Jiang. This is the deposit."

As he spoke, Bai Qingyao took out a few copper coins from his pocket and placed them in front of Aunt Jiang.

"I didn't need it before, I'll use this to make up for it."

"How can that be? This is specially for you to try."

She had offered this as a gift, so how could it be used to offset the cost? What would become of her then?

Hearing Bai Qingyao's words, it really is different from before.

"Three pence will suffice."

Aunt Jiang glanced at her again and continued, "This car is sitting here unused. Just three cents. Otherwise, I won't lend it to you."

Bai Qingyao was helpless. How could she possibly rent a cart with only three cents?

Aunt Jiang is helping their family, how could she not know that?

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Jiang."

Bai Qingyao took back the extra money. If she continued to refuse, it would probably alienate the relationship between them and cause unhappiness.

At worst, I can make more food for Aunt Jiang and the others.

It just so happened that this time she not only pried open the big oysters, but also pried open a lot of small oysters, which she still had uses for.

As soon as she walked out of the Jiang family's gate, her eyes fell on something not far away, and Bai Qingyao narrowed her eyes slightly.

Mrs. Zhang opposite obviously also saw Bai Qingyao. She didn't know what she was thinking about, but turned around and was about to leave.

Bai Qingyao strode forward and said, "Grandma Zhang, why do you leave when you see me?"

While speaking, Bai Qingyao had already walked in front of Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang looked at her and immediately remembered her sharp tongue and ruthless methods.

After she went back last time, she was scolded by the Zhang family, and even Ah Sheng's attitude towards her became much colder.

All of this is the fault of this little bitch in front of me!

"I...I'm busy?"

"Besides, this is your road, why are you meddling so much?"

Mrs. Zhang suddenly glared at Bai Qingyao fiercely again. If she couldn't beat her, could she not scold her?

What a cheap, unlucky little bitch, how dare she jump in front of her!

She is really rebellious.

Bai Qingyao sneered when she heard her words.

"Mrs. Zhang, you should have run away when you saw me, but now that you've seen me, isn't it time to pay me back?"

"I have no money!"

When Mrs. Zhang heard Bai Qingyao's words, she spoke subconsciously without noticing Bai Qingyao's expression.

If you want to ask for money from her, dream on!

"Oh? Really? Then I have no choice but to go to the county government office. However, your Zhang Sheng will be punished by being beaten."

Get a beating?

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her face turned pale.

"you dare!"

She suddenly jumped up and pointed at Bai Qingyao.

Bai Qingyao narrowed her eyes slightly and raised her hand.

"Ouch—my hand—"

I saw that Mrs. Zhang's hand was bent back by Bai Qingyao, and she was shouting with a distorted face.

"I hate it most when people point fingers at me."

"You-let me go! You little bitch!"

"Huh?" Bai Qingyao frowned, and Mrs. Zhang immediately started screaming on the spot.

"I-I'll pay you back!"

Bai Qingyao then waved her hand, and Mrs. Zhang didn't react in time and almost fell to the ground.

Then a piece of silver trembled and escaped from his arms. "Here..."

Looking at the silver in Mrs. Zhang's hand, Bai Qingyao frowned, "It's just a small amount, and you're giving it to a beggar!"

"I…that's all I have."

These were the food she was going to buy for Mr. Zhang in town this morning.

"is it?"

Meeting Bai Qingyao's gaze, Mrs. Zhang shrank her neck and took out a purse from her clothes that were close to her inner garment, feeling a pang of pain in her flesh.

She had saved this money secretly and had originally planned to find a place to hide it today, but she didn't expect to meet Bai Qingyao, the disaster star.

"Here you go, alright!"

Bai Qingyao took a look and her eyes flashed.

It's surprising that this old woman would bring so much silver with her when she goes out.

There are four taels of silver in this purse, plus the one tael from before, so he has a total of five taels of silver on him.

Five taels of silver is something that an ordinary poor family may not be able to earn in a year.

But this old woman...she spent five taels at once. It seems that what she said before about being poor was just a slogan.

"This is five taels. I still remember the remaining twenty-five taels. Otherwise, we'll meet at the county government office later."

After saying this, Bai Qingyao turned around and left, leaving Mrs. Zhang alone, her face pale with anger.

"Little bitch! You little bitch who got struck by lightning, just wait for me!"

Thinking of what she was going to do next, a fierce light flashed in Mrs. Zhang's eyes. If that was the case, she couldn't be blamed.

After receiving five taels of silver, Bai Qingyao returned home in a very happy mood. After returning home, she found that the three little ones were already sitting in the yard waiting for her after eating and drinking.

After she cleaned up the yard, it is now much cleaner and tidier. The vegetable garden has also been cleaned up, so she can plant some vegetables.
