Eating melons

After lunch, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi went to the river to wash four sacks of wild vegetables.

After washing, the two of them restrained themselves a little and did not sell them directly by the river, fearing that there were people in the woods and they would not be able to find them. Instead, they went back to the dead corner to sell them.

After the sale, Wei Wei didn’t know whether she should express her admiration for the system’s humanity.

Wei Wei: "I was prepared for it to lower the purchase price, but I didn't expect it to just remove the water and weigh the vegetables. There's no loophole to exploit."

Jiang Qi was also stunned when he knew about this operation. "Do you think we also weighed mushrooms like this when we sold them, but we lowered the price because there were impurities in them?"

Wei Wei: “Probably.”

The two put the morning's farce behind them and continued to work hard, focusing on making money.

As soon as I got home and opened the door, the smell of fermenting sauerkraut hit me.

Wei Wei frowned, "It's only been five days and the smell is already so strong. Won't it get stronger over time?"

The night before harvest, Liu Aiying came to pickle the sauerkraut for them. The temperature was quite high in the past few days, so the fermentation was fast.

Jiang Qi: "When the fermentation is done, I'll get rid of your jar of pickled cabbage first and keep mine."

The two of them had already discussed that when the winter came, they would sleep at Wei Wei's place and go to Jiang Qi's place to cook and eat.

There is no range hood, so they cook in the bedroom. It’s okay in the summer because they can open the doors and windows for ventilation, but in the winter they have to close the doors and windows tightly, which they really can’t stand.

Wei Wei rubbed her nose and said, "Okay."

Wei Wei was just about to use rice to steam rice when Goudan from the team leader's family came over.

Goudan: "Sister Wei, Sister Jiang, my grandfather said the brigade has your packages and wants you to go get them."

Wei Wei: "Okay, thank you, Goudan."

Goudan waved his hand, "You're welcome."

He ran away after saying that. He was in a hurry to go back and eat candy! Ever since he exchanged with Sister Jiang and Sister Wei, his grandmother said that as long as they picked mushrooms, they could exchange them for candy with his grandmother. Today he could exchange for five candies!

Looking at Goudan running away, Wei Wei smiled. Youth means being lively.

But the way they address each other is quite confusing. She calls Goudan grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, parents, brother and sister-in-law, and Goudan calls her sister.

In fact, at the beginning Goudan and the others called her and Jiang Qi aunt and Auntie, but Jiang Qi jokingly asked them to call them sister, and now it has become like this, everyone calls them their own names.

Knowing that the brigade had a package, Wei Wei quickly steamed the rice, called Jiang Qi, went to Xiao Xuemu's place, pushed a small cart, and walked towards the brigade.

Although Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin haven't returned yet, the carts are usually placed under the eaves, so you can just take them.

But what is surprising is that compared with the previous times, the packages of the two this time are pitifully small.

Of course, it is only small compared to before. If you don’t compare, it is still quite big.

The first thing I do when I get home is to cook and eat. Nothing is more important than eating.

I originally thought that I could have dinner early today and before dark, but I didn’t expect that by the time I got the package, it was dark again.

I have to secretly fetch water to wash clothes, but I can't not wash them because there will be things to do tomorrow.

Today I was eavesdropping secretly for fear of being discovered, so I huddled in that corner, and my clothes were covered with grass and dirt. Looking at the clothes in the basin, Wei Wei missed the washing machine so much, never before.

I'll have time to unpack and take a look once everything is done.

There was a letter on the top of the package. When the envelope was opened, six big unity notes fell out.

Wei Wei hurriedly took the money, she didn't expect there was so much money this time.

She put the money away before reading the letter. It was all about asking her to take good care of herself and not to buy anything for them. But when Wei Wei saw that Wei Wei said he had sent her seeds, she couldn't help but feel happy.

Unexpectedly, Wei Wei understood her subtle hint and sent the seeds to her directly, so she didn't have to write to ask for them.

It will take at least a month for the letter to arrive, and it's supposed to snow here in a month, so I don't know if it will be received. It's likely that I will get it next year.

I didn't expect that it had been sent now. Wei Wei had thoughtfully marked the seeds and written what kind of seeds they were.

Afraid that she wouldn't know how to grow them, I took a lot of each and even wrote instructions on paper, explaining how to plant each seed and when to plant it. I must have asked her mother-in-law for this.

There are not only seeds, but also many kinds of powder, which is what Wei Wei wants.

After all, she and Jiang Qi often eat noodles, so they always have to explain where they get so much noodles, otherwise it will obviously arouse suspicion!

She believed that with Wei Wei's personality, if she asked for it this time, the packages Wei Wei would send to her would definitely become a regular item.

This way, even if someone suspects you or investigates you, you don't have to worry.

Jiang Qi finished washing up and opened the package. Unlike Wei Wei, Jiang Qi's package contained very little food, but only clothes and daily necessities.

Not only her clothes, but also a set of Wei Wei's clothes and shoes.

Because Jiang Qi told her family that she asked a good friend to get her the clothes. This friend took very good care of her, and Jiang Qi did not expect Ning Lanzhen to send clothes and shoes to Wei Wei.

She probably wanted Wei Wei to take better care of her! To be honest, Ning Lanzhen's actions moved Jiang Qi.

It’s pitiful to see the love of parents all over the world, but not every parent has this kind of love for every child.

In addition, the largest amount sent was money, a full three hundred yuan, which earned back all the money she spent, and even earned a lot more money and things.

Jiang Qi couldn't help but sigh that making a profit from the price difference is making money, especially for such scarce items.

Jiang Qi locked up all the money, and Wei Wei carefully collected all kinds of seeds, as these would be the source of her wealth for next year.

Looking at the things on the kang, Wei Wei was thinking about what to send to Wei Wei this time.

While browsing the items on the system mall, I saw the brown sugar that was on sale. This brown sugar was the old-fashioned block-shaped brown sugar.

There is a promotion going on now, with a special price of 20 yuan for five kilograms. Wei Wei thought that Wei Wei had given birth to a baby this year, so it would be nice to send her some brown sugar.

Although it is no problem for Zhang Guodong to get some brown sugar with his ability, he must buy it at a high price on the black market. Otherwise, how much can he buy with those sugar coupons? Not only is the price on the black market high, but he can't get as much as he wants.

As for brown sugar, in this day and age, the more the better. You can drink it yourself or give it to others.

This kind of sugar usually costs six yuan per pound on the system, but today it is four yuan per pound. She thought that she could drink it herself, especially in winter when it was snowing heavily outside. She boiled brown sugar ginger tea in the house, and the thought of it made her feel comfortable.

Besides, this thing won’t expire if you don’t take it out, so Wei Wei bought it for a hundred yuan.

She is no longer in a state where she had to calculate every dollar carefully when she first came here. Now the balance in her system account is almost over ten thousand yuan, and she can buy something worth one hundred yuan without blinking an eye.

I just happened to borrow Xiao Xuemu's car today, so I'll give him one tomorrow. As for whether he wants to drink or not, it's up to him.

It's not that she was being unreasonably generous. Ever since she had eaten the chicken Xiao Xuemu sent her last time, she had been somewhat nostalgic for it. Unfortunately, the ribs were probably bought by him, not from the pigs he raised, so they tasted almost the same as those bought from the system.

I just hope that Xiao Xuemu will see how generous she is and give her more of his own things next time, or even sell her more.
