Rebirth: I became rich by farming Chapter 22 - 22 22 Supermarket Shopping

Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Supermarket Shopping Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Supermarket Shopping ngzhen knew whether she had cooked before or not, she was well aware that her cooking was not particularly delicious. She often cooked at ho, but she didn’t want to say anything in front of her younger brother, so she simply responded, “Okay, but let help you.”

“That works.”

Liang Xiao suddenly rembered the purpose of her visit, “By the way, have you finished your howork? School is about to start.”

“Howork?” ngzhen was startled, gradually feeling a wave of unease.

That’s right, she was still a second-year high school student who needed to do howork. And it seed she hadn’t started it yet. The problem was that the third year was around the corner, and even with her mories from the past life, she had almost forgotten all her high school knowledge. With her current level of knowledge, daring to take the university entrance exams was a pipe dream.

ngzhen’s expression beca more and more petrified, “What should I do? It seems I don’t have this mory in my head.”

“We did so before; I just don’t know if you finished it. School is starting soon, but there’s still ti. You can definitely finish it.”

Finishing the howork was indeed possible, but with only half a month left, could she, with her “pig-brain”, catch up on the first and second-year content?

ngzhen was on the verge of tears. Was she destined to miss out on university in this life too?

No, she wouldn’t give up. She ran upstairs, took three steps at a ti, and grabbed her backpack. It contained all her textbooks and howork, which she dumped onto the coffee table before starting to rummage through them.

Thankfully, ngzhen was always diligent. She had completed almost dozens of sets of papers during her parents’ trip away. Relieved to see the finished papers, she breathed a sigh of relief. Not having to make up howork was fortunate, because she hadn’t fully understood the questions she had glanced at just now.

It seed that reviewing for school had beco more important than making money. But ti managent wasn’t a problem—she was no longer entering the spatial realm during the day, which ant she could use all the ti, except for selling vegetables, to study.

Unfortunately, it was just her and Chenchen, so they could only make one trip to sell vegetables. If soone could help watch Chenchen, she could make several trips to fetch more goods. Then she could simply set aside ti in the afternoon to study.

As she thought, her gaze landed on Liang Xiao beside her, shining brighter the more she looked.

Liang Xiao felt a little creeped out being gazed at by ngzhen, as if she were a glittering jewel, yet she checked herself and saw nothing special. Puzzled, she asked, “What are you looking at?”

“Doesn’t your family say anything with you being out of the house every day?”

At this question, Liang Xiao couldn’t help but give a wry smile, “My family wishes I would vanish. They do talk about every day, though. What’s up?”

ngzhen inquired, “Do you want to make money?”

“Make money?”

“Yeah, you know I sell vegetables. But with Chenchen, I can only make one trip. If you could help out, look after Chenchen, and watch the stall, I could bring in more supplies. I could sell twice in the morning.”

Hearing it was this matter, Liang Xiao felt it wasn’t difficult. “Sure, what ti do you leave in the morning? The Vegetable Market near us?”

“No, it’s the big market right ahead; it’s not far. We sold our vegetables there today. I’ve beco acquainted with a lady from a Grocery Store. I can sell vegetables there until school starts. If you help , I’ll pay you a salary, how about one hundred per day?” ngzhen’s vegetables were expensive, so selling more would definitely double her sales. Paying Liang Xiao one hundred was not only for her to watch the child but also for making more money, which was actually a good deal. But to Liang Xiao, it didn’t sound the sa.

“You’re really being extravagant. How much can you earn from selling vegetables? You’re offering a hundred just like that. Be more economical, okay? Don’t end up giving all your earnings to .”

ngzhen didn’t bother to explain. She would understand tomorrow, “No worries, but we won’t go too early, around 8 o’clock is when we’ll head out.”

ngchen usually woke up a little after 7 o’clock. After waking up, they would need to get ready and have breakfast, so they couldn’t leave before 8. As for others starting their stalls as early as 5 in the morning, she wouldn’t compare herself to them. She was still young, and even at 17, she wanted more sleep, thinking maybe she could grow taller, as growth happens during sleep. She didn’t want to wake up that early.

Liang Xiao readily agreed, and that settled the matter. After reminding Liang Xiao not to ntion it to her family, the two of them prepared to make dinner.

Saying it was a treat, but apart from so greens, there was nothing else at ho. ngzhen felt a bit apologetic, “Let’s just have stir-fried greens then, greens are also delicious.”

Liang Xiao naturally didn’t mind, “You know , I’m not picky.”

For dinner, they had shredded potatoes and stir-fried tomatoes—yes, stir-fried tomatoes without eggs. It was not that they didn’t want to use eggs, but there were none left at ho. Luckily, Liang Xiao didn’t mind, and the two dishes served as dinner for the three of them.

Liang Xiao slled the dishes and thought they were fragrant while cooking, already salivating at the side. Finally served, she could hardly wait to try them.

Once the food was tasted, it was unanimously praised.

“Zhenzhen, this is so delicious,” Liang Xiao exclaid excitedly.

ngzhen’s face showed pride, “Of course, could my cooking be bad?”

Both knew it was actually because of the quality of the ingredients, but ngzhen had a thick face about it, and at that mont, Liang Xiao wasn’t quite adept at arguing back, so she let it slide.

After the three had dinner, Liang Xiao didn’t dare to overstay, and after confirming to co over at 8, she left. ngzhen then pulled the cart for buying vegetables, a common tool among the elderly in the future, but it was only just becoming popular at that ti.

After placing ngchen on the cart, they headed out, and about 7 or 8 minutes later, they arrived at the nearest Supermarket to their ho.

Entering the Supermarket, ngzhen grabbed a shopping cart and sat her brother in the front children’s seat.

ngchen was initially confused but soon felt a bit embarrassed, “Sister, I’m already big,” implying he didn’t need to sit there anymore.

ngzhen wouldn’t hear of it, “But you still fit, so you’re not big enough. When you beco a bit bigger, I won’t let you sit there anymore.”

ngchen replied with a chuckle, “Okay.”

ngzhen had already planned what to buy at ho, so she confidently grabbed what she needed once in the Supermarket. After purchasing the necessities, she then asked, “Chenchen, is there anything you want to eat?”

ngchen frowned, thinking hard, and after a long internal struggle, he said, “Nothing.”

Hm? That couldn’t be right; kids love snacks the most. She imdiately understood that the conflict revealed in her brother’s hesitation was about trying to save her money. ngzhen chuckled lightly, “Lying is not nice, little buddy. How can Chenchen not have anything he wants to eat? Big sister wants so snacks. Are you just going to watch eat later?”
