She took a bite and was instantly chilled by the sourness. That was how it was from the first bite; the more she ate, the more enjoyable it became.

They're really indifferent; they don't care about what's inside at all.

If I'm not mistaken, the owner of this restaurant must know Meng Fei, and be quite familiar with him, otherwise he wouldn't have guaranteed that it would be sold.

Sure enough, after staying inside for half an hour, the two came out, and Wang Feng couldn't stop smiling.

As soon as he got in the car, he started nagging Xiao Nan.

"Sold, sold! At a high price of 100 wen per catty, mine sold for 2.6 taels of silver, and yours sold for 1.8 taels of silver. We should be able to sell another batch before the New Year. We've made an appointment with the restaurant manager to deliver here again next time."

Xiao Nan squinted and smiled: "Not bad. After selling the second crop, we can plant another batch of garlic and sell two more crops."

"Yes, there are four harvests in total. Mine can sell for ten taels of silver, that's great!"

"Did they try any of those dishes and say which one was better?"

"The dumplings, especially the garlic chive filling, are absolutely delicious. We used frozen dumplings, but cooked them fresh. We served them to our customers for tasting, and they all said they were great. The shopkeeper set the price at 100 coins for a plate of ten dumplings. Each plate only uses about an ounce of garlic chives. I wonder how much profit they make."

"Don't worry about that, that's their business. We should just focus on selling our own products."

"Mmm, next is stir-fried pork with garlic chives, stir-fried eggs, and then soup. Everyone says it's good, but not as well-received as dumplings."

"That's settled then. Now that you have the money, what would you like to buy?"

Wang Feng quickly waved his hand: "I won't buy it now. I'll wait until next time I come to sell vegetables. That'll be the New Year, and I can buy New Year's goods then."

"Okay, let's go home."

To their surprise, Meng Fei led them to a clothing shop without a word, went inside, and came out shortly afterward carrying a large cloth bag.

He sat on the oxcart, opened the cloth bag, took out a purple cotton cloak, draped it over Xiao Nan's shoulders, and tied it with a white ribbon.

He then tied the cloth bag, but instead of heading back, he went to another shop. After a short while, he came out carrying something that looked like a pot and handed it to Xiao Nan: "This is a hand warmer. Warm your hands. You're not well, so you can't get cold."

Xiao Nan felt a warmth in his heart, and as he hugged the hand warmer, his hands immediately felt warm.

"Is there charcoal inside?"

"Yes, I also bought some charcoal. I'll carry it with me when we go out in the future, so it won't get cold."

Wang Feng was embarrassed to watch this scene, so he lowered his head and chuckled.

That's just how men are. Seeing how good Meng Fei is to his wife, he starts thinking about how to be good to his own wife.

However, his family was poor, and when he had money, he only thought about saving it. But it would be the same if he gave the money to his wife when he got back.

After buying what he needed, Meng Fei drove the oxcart back home.

He would stop and buy some whenever he came across a pastry shop or a stall selling fresh food.

They were all bought for Xiao Nan, and they were piled up next to her after they were bought.

When he passed by the steamed bun shop, he bought thirty vegetarian steamed buns. He gave five to Wang Feng, two to Xiao Nan, and three to himself. He wrapped up the rest to take back to his grandmother and Zhou Shi.

The three of them ate lunch in the car. It wasn't that Meng Fei didn't want to eat at a restaurant, but time was tight. After Wang Feng returned, he and Zhou Shi also needed to hurry back.

Besides, having gotten used to Xiao Nan's cooking, it's hard to swallow the food from restaurants anymore.

Before it got dark, the three of them arrived home, and Wang Feng immediately told Grandma and Zhou about the process of selling vegetables.

The two were so happy they almost jumped for joy, especially Zhou, whose tears streamed down her face.

“That’s great! We can earn several taels of silver in one winter, and we can continue to sell them in the spring until the vegetables are harvested.”

"Yes, thanks to Miss Xiao for helping us so much, we don't know what to say."

Xiao Nan was warm on the kang (heated brick bed) in his room and didn't go over. The old woman took over the conversation.

"She's beautiful and kind-hearted. She's only helping you out because of me. From now on, you have to listen to whatever she says and don't try to outsmart her, or she'll ignore you."

"Yes, aunt."

"Well, it's getting late, so I won't keep you for dinner. Go home early so the children won't worry. Take these dozen or so buns with you; the children are still hungry."

"Thank you, aunt."

The old woman saw them off, and when she returned, she saw two cloaks and some snacks on her kang (a heated brick bed).

So Kaixin picked up the cape and tried it on.

Xiao Nan drank some hot water, lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed), feeling warm under his body, while the chill emanated from his body.

This body is in terrible shape. After months of careful recuperation, it all came back as soon as I came back.

Fortunately, she had all kinds of medicine in her space. While Meng Fei was heating the kang (a heated brick bed), she quickly took out the medicine, drank it, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Meng Fei came in, touched her forehead with his hand, and was relieved to find that she didn't have a fever.

Unexpectedly, the weather changed drastically that night, and it started to snow. Meng Fei felt a bit cold in the room, so he put on his coat, got off the kang (a heated brick bed), added some charcoal, and then opened the door to look outside. Only then did he realize that it was snowing.

The snow was quite heavy, falling with a soft patter. He quickly put on his coat and went outside to check on Juanjuan and Fengfeng. They now had their own doghouse, and the two dogs were curled up together, sleeping soundly. When they saw him, they only lifted their eyelids slightly before continuing to sleep.

Then he went to the backyard to check on the shed, added some hay for the cows and donkeys, and made sure the chicken coop was properly covered before returning to the house.

He touched Xiao Nan's forehead again, pulled the blanket up a bit, and then lay down next to Xiao Nan, but couldn't fall asleep.

That night, Xiao Nan slept soundly and deeply. The various scenes of the apocalypse reappeared in her dream, but she remained calm and undisturbed, as if watching a movie.

She didn't know how long she had slept, but when she felt she couldn't sleep any longer, she opened her eyes.

There was no one else in the room. Xiao Nan turned his head to look at the window. Why was it so bright?

She sat up, moved to the window, wiped away the hazy condensation on the windowpane, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow, it's snowing again, and this time it's quite heavy."

Xiao Nan quickly put on his clothes and shoes, opened the door, and lifted the curtain. He saw snowflakes as white as goose feathers and happily reached out to catch them.

Her eyes squinted into crescent moons.

Meng Fei came over from the backyard, looked at his wife's adorable face, and chuckled.

"Are you hungry?"

"I'm hungry. I ate candied hawthorns yesterday, and my stomach is really empty right now."

"Shall I cook dumplings for you?"

"it is good!"

She moved a stool, sat down at her doorway, and looked up at the snow.

Just then, the courtyard gate rang. Meng Fei opened the gate, smiled when he saw Jiang Shi, and stepped aside to let her in.

Jiang shook her head and handed him a bag.

"Here are some fresh melon seeds and peanuts for Sister Wang and Miss Xiao to snack on when they're bored. I have to go now, the shop is quite busy."

"Thank you."

Meng Fei delivered the bag to the main room, and when he returned, he saw his wife still looking at it. He went over and pinched her cheek.

So tender, so smooth, like a peeled egg. No girl in the village is as fair and beautiful as my wife.

Just as he was admiring his wife, firecrackers went off outside, and Xiao Nan looked towards the door.

The old woman also came out of the house and shouted when she saw Xiao Nan.

"Girl, wear something warm, Grandma will take you to see the excitement."

"On such a cold day, who's going to get married?"

"We farmers usually marry off our daughters and take in new wives at the end of the year because it's cold and things are easier to store."

"Suffering".

"Are you going?"

"go with!"

Meng Fei instructed, "Go and come back quickly, don't stay too long, be careful not to catch a cold."

The two fastened their cloaks, held hands, and went out the door.

"Grandma, whose house is this?"

When the old woman saw the family that had set off firecrackers, her face darkened: "The Ji family has a shrew in their family. She used to bully me whenever I went out, so I've gradually stopped going out."
