Rebirth: I became rich by farming Chapter 28 - 28 28 Bed-wetting

Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Bed-wetting Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Bed-wetting After breakfast, it was ti to sell vegetables again. Midday, I would return ho to eat and read, and in the evening, I worked in the space. It was the sa routine for two days straight.

By Friday, our vegetable selling endeavor had co to an end. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to set up the stall for two more days, it was mainly because we planned to visit my auntie’s house over the weekend. True to form, my auntie would call us over for breakfast early in the morning, so there was simply no ti for the stall.

After coming back on Friday, i ngzhen did the math for the four days of selling vegetables. In the last two days alone, we made 4240 yuan, which, added to the previous 730 yuan and 1680 yuan, ant that in just four days, we had earned a total of 6650 yuan selling vegetables.

i ngzhen was shocked. For the year 2007, that was a significant sum of money, and for a high school student like her, it was an impressive fortune.

Of course, this amount didn’t include Liang Xiao’s wages. Liang Xiao had helped her out for four days, which ant I had to deduct 400 yuan. But even then, there was still 6250 yuan left.

With this money, plus what my parents had left behind, I had almost 10,000 yuan on hand, not to ntion the money left by grandpa. Whether for living expenses this year or for college, I temporarily didn’t need to worry about money.

As for whether to continue selling vegetables, I said I definitely would if I had the ti. After all, who would complain about having too much for living expenses?

i ngzhen said we would close the stall and then we just vanished, causing trouble for those who wanted to buy our vegetables. Just as they were getting used to the produce from our stall, it disappeared without warning after only a couple of days.

i ngzhen was like a shadow that ca without a trace and left without one too. It was hard to find her if you wanted to. Once you’ve had a taste of good vegetables, it’s difficult to go back to the ones you had before.

Of course, these were all problems for another ti.

With money in my purse, I felt delighted. After dinner, I said hello to i ngchen and went out briefly. I didn’t go far before bringing out a waterlon from the space and returning ho.

The waterlons in the space were round and large. Every day I went into the space, I’d drool over them, but I never had a taste, and during sumr, the best thing to do is eat waterlon.

I ca ho, went to the kitchen to cut the waterlon into pieces, and then my brother and I started enjoying it while watching TV.

Having gotten used to the delicacies from the space, my brother and I showed only a slight reaction at first when trying the waterlon before devouring it heartily.

However, the consequence of our hearty feast was that the next morning, I woke up to find that Little Chenchen had wet the bed.

At first, I didn’t notice, and seeing that i ngchen’s cheeks were red, I didn’t think much of it. But it didn’t take long for to realize what had happened, “Chenchen, you didn’t… did you?”

i ngchen thought I was going to tease her and imdiately got defensive: “Sister’s an, sister’s laughing at Chenchen.”

I was wrongly accused, “When did I laugh at you? I haven’t even started yet.”

i ngchen beca flustered and upset, “You’re going to tease , that’s not allowed, don’t laugh anymore.”

“Alright, alright, I won’t laugh. Hurry up and put your mattress out to dry, otherwise you won’t have anything to sleep on tonight.” I went to my brother’s bedside and started to bustle about, but i ngchen wouldn’t have it. Clutching his quilt, he refused to let go, “No, no, I’ll do it myself.”

“Ah, you’ll do it yourself? How are you going to manage that? Sister isn’t making fun of you, hurry up, Auntie might call soon.”

No sooner had I spoken than Aunt i Yinan’s call ca through, “Hello, Auntie.”

“Have you two gotten up? If so, co over for breakfast.”

“Okay, we’re up, we’ll be right there.”

I hung up and turned to my brother, “You heard her. Auntie is calling us over for breakfast. You better get washed up quickly; it’s not good to keep others waiting.”

“Then you mustn’t laugh, and you mustn’t ntion this to anyone else,” i ngchen now knew I was fond of him and dared to negotiate with .

I couldn’t help but smile, “You little guy, so concerned about your image. I won’t say anything, I promise, but if you let sothing slip, I won’t be responsible.”

“I won’t,” i ngchen retorted before going downstairs to wash up. anwhile, I busied myself with airing out the bedding, washing up, and changing clothes. By the ti i ngchen had finished, I had also wrapped up a bunch of chores. Then, I packed several apples from the space, and my brother and I, hand in hand, headed out.

After washing up in the morning, i ngchen wasn’t as embarrassed as he had been at first, but seeing , he still seed a bit shy, “Sister, let’s not eat waterlon again tonight, okay?”

“Sure, we’ll eat sothing else tonight. Any fruit you’re craving?”

i ngchen thought hard, “Grapes, I want grapes.”

Now that he knew I had money, he felt confident enough to voice a small request. Probably because I would have asked only if we had the money – otherwise, who’d think about eating fruit when even als were difficult?

“Alright, we’ll have grapes tonight.”

We arrived at Auntie’s house, and before we could reach the door, it swung open, “I could hear you two coming from inside. Hurry in, the noodles are boiling.”

We quickened our pace and entered.

At Auntie’s house, besides Auntie herself, Uncle Fan Hongwei and the twins, Brother Fan Tianyu and Sister Fan Tianhua, were all at ho. We greeted them one after the other, “Good morning, Auntie, Uncle, Brother Tianyu, Sister Tianhua.”

i ngchen imitated , echoing my greetings exactly.

The family brought us in, and I casually placed the fruit on the table. Auntie noticed it right away and began nagging, “Why bring things when you co over? When did you start being so formal?”

Indeed, it was the first ti I had brought sothing over, except for holidays and special occasions, of course. Otherwise, our family would just co over to Auntie’s for als and leave afterward, never even considering bringing gifts. Neither of my parents had the grace to bring sothing when visiting soone’s house.

So when I made this gesture, the four family mbers instantly felt a pang of sympathy for us two kids – we were just kids and already learned to bring gifts when visiting.

I did partly have that intention, but more than that, I wanted Auntie’s family to try the fruits from the space.

“It’s nothing. I noticed these fruits looked really nice while passing by, so I bought a few for everyone to try.”

Uncle also noticed their exceptional freshness and size, larger than what’s typically sold outside. Uncle Fan Hongwei asked, “These apples are huge! They weren’t cheap, were they?”

“Bought them at the vegetable market up front, ten yuan each, but they taste really good.”

As soon as I said this, Auntie exploded, “You child, buying such expensive fruit! Take them back. We’re both working here; we can afford our own fruit. You keep it and eat it yourself.”

Having already brought them, I certainly wouldn’t take them back: “There are a few more at ho. These apples are especially delicious. Later, wash them and cut them up, everyone can try them.”
