”Oh, so that's how it is.” Fang Ruxiu said, ”Then does that mean that when it's Third Aunt's turn to cook, she doesn't bring water?”

”Yeah, most of the time, it's like that. My brother would usually help her fetch water when he sees that she's pitiful.” Fang Yizhi replied.

The last sentence, however, was actually only half known and half understood in Fang Yizhi's ears. He didn't quite understand it, but he didn't continue to ask.

Since Fang Yizheng wanted to go with them to the town, Fang Ruyi naturally didn't have any objections. Instead, she felt extremely happy about Fang Yizheng cherishing his siblings. Actually, Fang Yizheng wasn't that old, he was only fourteen years old at most. The few children had been chatting a bit along the way, but of course, Fang Ruxiu did not think of herself as a child.

The town wasn't too far away from Fang Jia Bay and it was only three miles away. The children ran and hopped, and it only took them twenty minutes to reach it. On the way, Fang Rumian was also very happy, but she was a little tired from just coming down from the mountain.

During this time, she said that she couldn't walk anymore, so Fang Yizheng immediately bent down and said that he wanted to carry her, and she unhesitatingly climbed onto Fang Yizheng's back. Since he didn't have an elder brother in his previous life, he would finally have one in this life. He would definitely take advantage of the fact that his elder brother hadn't married yet to have the habit of becoming a sister.

”Little sister, you're too light. Big brother thinks that you're not even as heavy as a little piglet.” As he walked, he was also teasing Fang Ruxiu. However, Fang Ruxiu did not bother with him, she was immersed in the joy of being a younger sister, and felt that even though the Fang Family was poor, they were still very human.

When they were almost to the town, Fang Yizheng was a little shy, afraid that others would say that he was carrying a little girl, but Fang Ruxiu acted like a spoiled child and refused to get down, insisting that Fang Yizheng carry her into the town. Fang Yizheng had no choice but to accept his fate.

When they arrived at the small town, only after Fang Yizheng had agreed to buy delicious food for her, and with Fang Yizhi at the side, Fang Ru Xiu barely got off Fang Yizheng's back.

”Big brother, I want to eat meat buns.” These were the first words Fang Ruxiu said when she got down from Fang Yizheng's back.

”Sure, I'll buy it.” Fang Yizheng said without the slightest hesitation.

”Big brother, where did you get the money from?” Fang Ru Xiu asked.

”I saved it myself. Why are you asking so many questions as a child?” Fang Yizheng said somewhat embarrassedly.

”Heh, then big brother, please be honest. How much private property do you have?” Fang Ru Xiu continued to interrogate him.

”Not much, just five copper coins.” Fang Yizheng said honestly, then took out these five coins from his bosom.

When Fang Ruxiu saw it, she immediately snatched it away and happily said to Fang Yizhi: ”I've gone to buy meat buns.”

When Fang Yizheng saw it, he was not angry, but was happy when he saw that Fang Ruxiu was happy with Fang Yizhi.

Fang Yizhi knew that Fang Ruxiu was rich, but he did not say it out loud. Seeing that his brother was willing to take out his private money to buy meat buns for the two of them, Fang Yizhi was actually very happy in his heart.

However, the few of them did not go out to buy meat buns. Fang Ru Xiu had only ran a few steps before slowing down. She had not seen this ancient shop properly before and was truly curious.

Today was not the day for the market, so there were no people in the town. However, most of the shops were still open, and Fang Ruzhu guessed that it was some kind of yellow wooden door with a wooden plaque on it.

Seeing her like this, Fang Yizheng said: ”Today is not the day to rush to the market. When it's the day of the gathering, many people will have already set up their stalls, and the streets will be crowded with people, that's what's so exciting about it. When the time comes, little sister can go around the streets happily, it's not very likely.”

”Really? Then we'll come again next time. It's close to town anyway.” Fang Ru Xiu said.

”Isn't that so? They often come to the town to play, too.” Fang Yizheng said.

”The academy we are studying in is over there.” Hearing Fang Yizheng's words, Fang Yizhi pointed to the end of the street and said. But when Fang Ruzhu looked where he was pointing at, she couldn't see anything.
