Chapter 28: Regret

"next time……"

Lu Xiaoli wiped away her tears, turned around and glared at Lu Xiaoqing, "Next time if there's a fight, stay away."

"I……"

Before Lu Xiaoqing could say anything, Lu Xiaoli glared at Lu Xiangge again, "And you, why are you rushing so fast? What if they have rocks or sticks in their hands?"

"And you."

This time Lu Xiaoli attacked indiscriminately, even Lu Xiaoyu didn't let go, "Why did you encourage Xiao Si to fight? What if he doesn't know how to do kung fu and gets injured?"

Looking at the fierce Lu Xiaoli, everyone remained silent and did not say a word.

In fact, during the fight, Lu Xiaoli was the one who charged the most and hit the hardest. But now that she was training everyone like this, no one was angry at all.

"Second sister."

Lu Xiaoyu hugged Lu Xiaoli's arm and shook it vigorously, "Let me tell you secretly, I actually knew yesterday that Xiao Si could fight."

Facing Lu Xiaoli's suspicious gaze, the little girl danced and told the story about how Lu Sheige tripped shopkeeper Luo in the cloth store yesterday.

In order to make the two sisters deeply feel the power of Xiaosi, Lu Xiaoyu also modified it a little, exaggerating the original trivial matter.

If Lu Xiangge was not the person involved, she would have some doubts as to whether Lu Xiaosi, who Lu Xiaoyu said was very powerful, was actually her.

"Really?"

Lu Xiaoli couldn't believe what he heard.

Is Xiao Si so powerful that he even dares to beat Shopkeeper Luo?

Although she had already fought with Lu Xiaosi and witnessed how powerful Lu Xiaosi was, she still couldn't believe what she saw.

Because of the support of Lu Xiaoli, Lu Xiaoyu became more and more excited and kept talking non-stop.

Only Lu Xiangge was walking, peeking at Lu Xiaoqing who was silent.

Is the eldest sister angry?

Ever since Lu Xiangge woke up in the Lu family's small shack, she had never seen Lu Xiaoqing angry or angry.

Lu Xiaoqing is not like Lu Xiaoli, who always shows her happiness or displeasure on her face. She has always been gentle and attentive, and is an eldest sister that is loved by her younger siblings.

Judging from the way she lowered her head and said nothing, she was probably angry, right?

Lu Xiangge glanced at the two young ladies who were walking in front and didn't notice the eldest sister's mood at all. They lowered their heads and followed without saying a word.

well!

She didn't know how to explain to her eldest sister that she was not the Lu family's fourth child who knew how to fight as Xiaoyu said.

She really doesn't like fighting!

She only knows a little bit, really just a little bit of free fighting.

As he walked, as he walked, two thin fingers pinched the hem of Lu Sheige's clothes.

"Little Four."

Lu Xiaoqing pondered for a long time before saying, "Don't fight."

She has been obedient since she was a child, and fighting with Xiao Si and the others today is probably the bravest thing she has ever done in her life.

At that time, she was afraid that her younger siblings would be bullied, so she rushed forward regardless.

Afterwards, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

If they can't beat those naughty kids, if Xiaosi or the younger sisters are injured...

if……

Lu Xiaoqing didn't dare to think about it. She couldn't accept any outcome.

"Sister, don't be afraid, I won't fight with anyone casually."

If it weren't for Chen Ergou laughing at Lu Xiaoqing for stuttering, she and Lu Xiaoli would not have done anything.

Lu Xiaoqing was still struggling: "But..."

Lu Xiangge left a free hand and took Lu Xiaoqing's hand: "Sister, I promise you, as long as others don't bully our family, I promise not to fight with others first. However, eldest sister, don't be afraid, we won't cause trouble.

Afraid of trouble..."

Lu Xiaoqing was already clumsy, and now he didn't know how to persuade her. He could only look at Lu Xiaosi's forehead with red marks and bruises with distress, and responded in a low voice: "I'm not afraid."

Looking at the frail eldest sister, Lu Xiangge's heart felt slightly blocked.

She likes Lu Xiaoqing's gentleness and kindness very much, but in this difficult world, sometimes she still needs a temperament like Lu Xiaoli's who is not afraid of life and death and will do whatever it takes to survive better.

The eldest sister is too weak and kind!

The four siblings carried the baskets and walked around in various alleys. In the end, there was still less than half of the basket of rice dumpling leaves left.

"Little Four."

Lu Xiaoli looked at the remaining reed leaves in the basket and felt a little unhappy: "What should I do with these leftover rice dumpling leaves?"

Now that there is no cattail, these rice dumpling leaves may be even harder to sell.

If she picked more rice dumpling leaves yesterday, she could sell them for more money.

If she listens to Xiaosi and cuts the mat grass today, she can make more money.

If they had been more cowardly and not fought with those naughty kids, they might have been able to sell more.

In short, Lu Xiaoli regretted that Wei Ye was not sold out.

"If it can't be sold, it won't be sold."

Lu Sheige didn't think it was a big deal that these reed leaves couldn't be sold.

"Either, otherwise..."

Lu Xiaoli sighed for a long time, and it took him a long time to express his inner thoughts: "Let's go to Aunt Ding's alley and have a look."

"That won't work."

Lu Sheige had her own idea: "Yesterday we sold two handfuls for one penny, and today we sold them three handfuls for one penny and gave away mats. How can we sell them there?"

"Just sell it like this. If you don't have mat straw, just sell the rice dumpling leaves at a cheaper price."

Lu Xiaoli was a little puzzled: "While it's still selling today, hurry up and sell it out!"

Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, who will sell rice dumpling leaves then?

Who wouldn’t have made the rice dumplings the night before, put them in a pot and slowly boiled them over firewood. Waiting for the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow, you can eat them when you get up early in the morning.

"Xiaoyu, tell me."

Lu Xiangge hadn't stopped talking today. Although he had drank water in the alley just now, he still felt his throat was dry and itchy after talking too much.

Now, she doesn't want to talk.

Lu Xiaoyu was stunned when he heard this, and then rolled his eyes: "We sold it to Aunt Ding and the others yesterday for one penny and two handfuls. We will go back today. Second sister, what do you think is the right price? No one wants two handfuls for one penny, but one penny for two handfuls.

With three handfuls of money, will Aunt Ding and the others be unhappy? You can't. We still have to return the extra copper coins we sold yesterday to them, right?"

Aunt Ding gave them a bunch of sausages yesterday. Do they have to return the sausages they eat?

"That won't work."

When he heard that the money would be refunded, Lu Xiaoli immediately became anxious.

There was no reason for her to return the copper coins she had received.

It's better not to sell it and just take it home.

"Even if we sell three handfuls for a penny, no one will take them."

Lu Sheige said as he took out the money bag from his arms and waved it in front of the three sisters: "Do you want to count how many copper coins were sold today?"

When he heard about counting copper coins, Lu Xiaoyu's eyes immediately lit up.

She also wants to count money.

"What to count."

Lu Xiaoli held down the money bag, looked around cautiously, and shouted to Lu Xiuge in a low voice: "We'll count when we get home."

I'm not afraid of being seen and snatched away.

"There's no point in going home."

Lu Sheige took advantage of the situation and stuffed the money bag back: "Now, I'm going to buy glutinous rice and go home to make rice dumplings. This way, the rice dumpling leaves we picked will not be wasted."

"Buy...buy...what to buy?"

Lu Xiaoli stammered, "Nuttinous rice, that's so valuable."

Originally, glutinous rice was more than twice as expensive as japonica rice. In the past two years, the price of japonica rice has doubled, let alone glutinous rice.
