The tofu was sold out early, and Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui had bought a few items and were on their way home.

By the time they reached their front door, Mrs. He was already waiting for them.

“Miss Ning, Miss Sui.” Seeing the two sisters return, Mrs. He greeted them from afar and took two steps forward: “You two are finally back.”

“Auntie.” Zhuang Qingning smiled: “What brings you here? By the way, where’s Uncle He? How did the tofu sell today?”

“I’m waiting here just to mention this.” Mrs. He’s face was beaming with a smile, almost overflowing: “Your uncle went to sell tofu today, using your method of ‘try before you buy’, the tofu sold quite well. He didn’t even finish going around another village outside of ours, and it was sold out in just over an hour.”

“Looking at this situation, we won’t have trouble selling tofu in the future!”

As she spoke, Mrs. He led Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui forward: “You two hurry back and put the things away. I bought a large intestine to stew today. Let’s go to my house for lunch.”

“Coincidentally, I have something to discuss with Uncle He and Auntie. Let’s go to Auntie’s house for lunch.” Zhuang Qingning took out a fish she bought in town: “I bought this fish in town a while ago. Auntie, you can stew it for lunch. We can eat it together.”

“Keep this fish for dinner. You’re being invited over for a meal at our house, you shouldn’t have to provide food.” Mrs. He said while pushing Zhuang Qingning’s hand down, and casually put the fish in the basin in the kitchen.

Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui came back by bullock cart, not too much time was wasted, so the fish wasn’t quite dead yet. Shortly after it was placed in the water, it flicked its tail and began to swim.

In this case, it could be eaten at night or even the next day.

Seeing Mrs. He insist, Zhuang Qingning didn’t say much more. She simply put things away before heading to Mrs. He’s house with her.

Seeing Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui come home, Zhuang Yonghe quickly stopped weaving his half-finished straw sandals, slapped the dust off his hands: “Miss Ning, Miss Sui.”

“Uncle He.” Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui both greeted in unison.

Zhuang Minghao brought over small stools and poured a cup of tea for the two: “Big Sister Ning, have some tea. Sister Sui, have some tea.”

“Minghao seems to be growing up.” Zhuang Qingning said thanks and laughed.

Zhuang Minghao looked at Zhuang Yonghe before laughing: “If you ask me, it’s Big Sister Ning who has good eyesight. She can tell at a glance that I’ve grown up. I’m not a little kid anymore. Yet, my parents still think I’m a child and worry about everything.”

“Dad, you heard that, right? Big Sister Ning says I’m a grown-up now, so in the future, whatever chores there are at home, let me do some. My build is no worse than my elder brother’s.”

“Alright, I’ll let you do chores.” Zhuang Yonghe glanced at Zhuang Minghao without enthusiasm.

This second son was not bad, but his character was somewhat lively and full of laughter, though he was well-liked, he lacked the steadiness of Zhuang Mingliang, always giving people a sense of unease.

“Stop whining and fetch some peanuts and sunflower seeds for Miss Ning and Miss Sui. Also, go to the kitchen and help your mother with the fire.”
