Eating melons

Jiang Qi was a little curious about what Wei Wei wanted to talk to Xiao Xuemu about so early in the morning. "Are you going to see Xiao Xuemu?"

Wei Wei nodded. "Yeah, I borrowed his cart yesterday to deliver some thank-you gifts. Oh, and I bought a lot of brown sugar yesterday. I plan to send some to my sister in a couple of days. Do you want to send it?"

Jiang Qi: "Okay. By the way, your thank you gift to Xiao Xuemu won't be brown sugar, right?"

Wei Wei nodded, "Yeah! What's wrong?"

Jiang Qi was choked by this. What else could it be? Didn't she know? Giving such a heavy gift for just borrowing a small cart would easily make her look like a sucker.

It was okay this time because it was Xiao Xuemu, he wasn't the type to take advantage of others, but what if it was someone else next time? Wei Wei would definitely be taken advantage of.

Jiang Qi thought about it and finally spoke out, putting down the spatula in his hand. "Weiwei, it's okay this time because it was Xiao Xuemu, but next time, if it's someone else, don't give them such expensive things. Brown sugar may be a small thing to you, but it's very valuable to others. You'll easily be taken advantage of."

Wei Wei was indeed too generous, whether to her or to Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu, especially to her. Although she earned a lot of money for Wei Wei, if it weren't for Wei Wei's system, that money couldn't buy such good things.

The value of what Wei Wei gave her was far greater than the money she earned for Wei Wei.

(Actually, not really. Wei Wei kept some money. She earned at least half of it. Most of the things she bought for Jiang Qi were bought during discounts and promotions, and of course, her own things as well.

Who made her bored at night? She would stare at the system mall whenever she had nothing to do, to see if there were any promotions. Usually, as long as there was a promotion, Wei Wei would buy it, regardless of whether it was useful or not.

The difference is that if it is useful, buy more, and if it is useless, buy less.)

Wei Wei was not unhappy when she heard Jiang Qi's words, because she knew that she was concerned about her. "Don't worry! Look, apart from you, who else have I been so generous to?

I gave Xiao Xuemu some brown sugar because I wanted his help. I wanted him to buy us another chicken like the one we ate last time and to prepare it for us."

Jiang Qi paused when he heard Wei Wei's request. "Did he agree?"

Wei Wei nodded and said, "I agreed. By the way, he asked about the cotton-padded jacket I requested last time. I told him it's here and he'll come get it tonight."

Jiang Qi nodded. This was no problem. However, Jiang Qi looked at Wei Wei. There was something she had wanted to ask for a long time. "Wei Wei, your family conditions in your previous life must have been quite good! Your parents must have loved you very much!"

Otherwise, her character wouldn't be so naive and optimistic. Although naive, she is not stupid.

Wei Wei didn't know why she asked that, but it wasn't something she couldn't say, so she nodded. "It's okay! But my parents love me very much."

Jiang Qi: "I knew it. You grew up in a family with plenty of love. But now that you've traveled through time, what are your parents going to do?"

Wei Wei: “My parents left because of the masks.”

Jiang Qi didn't expect that Wei Wei's parents were no longer around. "I'm sorry, I..."

Wei Wei quickly interrupted her, "It's okay, I'm used to it and have accepted this fact a long time ago."

Jiang Qi: "You said you were born in the 2000s and just graduated from college. Doesn't that mean you were on lockdown for almost all four years of college?"

Wei Wei is the kind of person who has obviously never experienced the harshness of society. She is very naive in many things, but despite her naivety, she is also very thoughtful. She doesn't know why.

When it comes to this, Wei Wei is speechless. "That's right. They say that four years in college are fun. I was either locked up at home or in school for four years. Forget making friends. I mostly communicated with my classmates online."

It’s sad to think about it, but there’s nothing we can do because the situation was so serious at that time!

The two chatted for a while and breakfast was ready. Jiang Qi said: "Let's come back early this afternoon and go buy some fresh mushrooms from Aunt Liu. They will be perfect for stewing chicken in the evening.

The batch of mushrooms Aunt Liu just dried should be done by now. My family sent a lot of money yesterday. Let's go buy some more. Besides selling them to your system, we'll also send some back home."

Wei Wei nodded and said with a smile, "Okay. But let's go to Aunt Zhao to buy it. Would you like to buy some from Wu Mei?"

Wu Mei dried a lot of mushrooms, and they knew what she was thinking. In addition to wanting to save money, she also wanted to make some money.

Jiang Qi shook her head. "How dare you eat her mushrooms directly? They have to go through the system for identification. Forget it! It's too troublesome."

Wei Wei nodded. She really didn't dare to eat Wu Mei's mushrooms directly. Although most of them were bought from Zhao Xing and others, Liu Jiaojiao, Yu Xi and Wu Mei also put some mushrooms they picked themselves in there.

Although Zhao Xing and the others would explain everything to the three of them, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi still didn't dare to believe them.

Wei Wei was happy all day long because she had another large sum of money coming in. It should be enough to cover the money for buying clothes for Xiao Xuemu. It meant that she didn't have to spend any money for another day, and maybe she could even earn some.

Wei Wei admired Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin very much. They were in the black market every day, but apart from Wei Wei and Jiang Qi who guessed it, no one else noticed it.

Whenever there was a bullock cart going to the county, they would go there. If someone asked, they would say they were visiting relatives. Now everyone in the brigade knew that Li Zhiqing and Xiao Zhiqing had a relative in the county town, and they had a very good relationship. They would always bring a lot of bags.

This made their precarious reputations a little better. At least their aunt included them in the list of possible sons-in-law. After all, although they were not very good at work, their relatives at home were quite capable.

Whether far or near, no one is a stingy person.

If there was no ox cart to go to the county town, the two of them would go to the black market in the town, but no one noticed that they had gone to the town, and they all thought they had gone to the mountains to pick up mountain products.

This is also thanks to Wu Mei. Wu Mei wanted to save some money on buying mountain products, so she bought these fresh mushrooms from Zhao Xing. She cleaned and dried them herself, which made it cheaper this way.

She not only posted her own photos, but also posted photos for Yu Xi and Liu Jiaojiao.

Yu Xi and Liu Jiaojiao didn't care about this. It didn't matter whether they asked Zhao Xing to buy it or Wu Mei to buy it. It didn't matter if Wu Mei was short of money and asked her to earn some. They would spend the same amount of money anyway.

Therefore, the front of the seven of them's house was full of mushrooms drying. They would not specifically tell others that these mushrooms were all dried by Wu Mei, so outsiders would not know who got these mushrooms, and would just assume that each of them had one.

Therefore, no one noticed that Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu went to the black market.

But with the exception of one person, Yu Xi may have discovered something. He only knew that they did not go to the mountain, but he had no idea what they were going to do.

After dinner, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi rushed back to the place where they had been yesterday. However, they were much more restrained today. Every time they sold something, they would find a corner in the woods where it was impossible to see.

Just in case there is someone in the woods, they won’t be able to find him.
