Jiang Chuan and his family managed to leave the place smoothly. As they walked, they sold the remaining wild vegetables and mushrooms from door to door.

Jiang Xia was surprised to see a familiar face. The girl who had sat with her the other day while chatting about the strawberries was here.

“Eh? It’s you?” The girl was pleasantly surprised.

“Yes, hello.” Jiang Xia replied politely.

The lady extended her hand generously. “Hello, I’m Zhou Juan. Nice to meet you.”

After saying that, Zhou Juan looked at the people behind Jiang Xia and asked curiously, “Is there something wrong?”

Jiang Xia opened the cloth covering the basket and showed her the things inside.

“We want to see if anyone needs these vegetables.”

Jiang Xia avoided using the word buy by using need.

Zhou Juan nodded in understanding. She reached out to touch the vegetables and sighed.”Your vegetables are really good. The supply and marketing club got some vegetables a few days ago. The quality and appearance are similar to yours. They were snatched up as soon as they were taken out. I didn’t even get to buy them.”

Jiang Xia understood immediately. It was probably the vegetables that they had brought to sell.

Then, she thought of the street they had walked before. There were many people on that street who were quite interested in vegetables. However, when they heard that there was meat for sale, they put down their vegetables and exchanged things for meat.

“Are you going to buy it this time?” Jiang Xia asked with a smile.

“Of course! However, my parents have to pay for it.” Zhou Juan chuckled and took two steps forward to knock on the door beside Jiang Xia.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man with a serious face. He didn’t look like an easy person to get along with, but when he saw Zhou Juan, he still smiled. When he saw Jiang Xia’s family, he couldn’t help but ask, “Who are these people?”

“Father, this is the girl I mentioned to you. Her name is …” Zhou Juan looked at Jiang Xia.

“Jiang Xia.” Jiang Xia added.

“Hello, I’m Zhou Juan’s father.”

Since the daughters of the two families knew each other, the adults could not help but exchange pleasantries. After a while, they learned about the situation of the two families. It was a surprise Zhou Juan’s father did not look at their family with disgust.

Many of the families that Jiang Chuan’s family passed by today would look at them with contempt.

In this era, there was a huge difference between people living in different places. The people with the best life was usually located in cities, followed by towns, and then village.

Just as Zhou Juan’s father wanted them to stay longer, Jiang Chuan declined.

“It’ll be dark soon. We still have to rush back to the village, so I won’t be staying any longer. Thank you for your kindness, Brother Zhou.” Jiang Chuan said.

Zhou Juan’s father also looked at the sky and nodded. “Alright then, we won’t talk much today.”

He looked at Jiang Xia’s basket and continued, “We’ve been chatting for so long that we’ve delayed you from selling things. How about this? I’ll take all your vegetables. I’ll buy them at the price of the supply and marketing club.” “Brother Zhou, you’re treating me like an outsider. We’ve just met and don’t have anything good to give give you. If you don’t mind, keep these vegetables and treat them as a greeting gift.”

In the past, this kind of greeting gift would indeed be shabby. However, due to the drought, many people’s vegetables had withered and tasted bad.

Zhou Juan’s father wanted to decline, but seeing that he couldn’t refuse, he let Zhou Juan enter the house to get some things.

Not long after, Zhou Juan came out with a small cloth bag. As soon as the cloth bag was opened, Jiang Gu’s eyes lit up.

Inside the small cloth bag was a small bag of candy wrapped in orange candy paper.

Zhou Juan’s father handed the entire bag of candies to Jiang Xia. “I don’t have anything else at home. I just have some candies for the children.”

Jiang Chuan didn’t expect Zhou Juan’s father to give Jiang Xia an entire bag of sweets. Nowadays, sweets were rare. Children in the countryside only got one or two pieces during the Chinese New Year. It was really precious.

With that thought in mind, Jiang Chuan rejected him. “This won’t do. It is too expensive.. Brother Zhou, you should take it back!”
