The weather in August is hot, but the country roads are shaded by houses and rows of fruit trees, making them much cooler.

But even so, Song Manman was fully armed and covered her entire body tightly for fear of being burned by the sun.

"Aunt, you are just like a thief."

Seeing Song Manman dressed like this, Ling Zheng couldn't help but say something more, causing Song Manman to roll her eyes at him repeatedly.

However, because Song Manman was wearing sunglasses, Ling Zheng couldn't see it either.

When they came across a village store on the way, Song Manman took out some change and said, "Who among you wants some popsicles? Hurry and get them. There won't be any more stores like this after this village."

As soon as Song Manman finished speaking, the already small store became much more crowded in an instant.

The boss was a very gentle girl, about 20 years old. Seeing so many strong young men rushing in, she was a little overwhelmed for a moment.

Most families in the countryside are not very rich, so they don’t give their children much pocket money, so there aren’t many people coming to the store to buy things.

It is almost uncommon to have more than a dozen people rushing in at once like today, but the boss's reaction was very quick and he immediately handed the bag to Song Yi and others.

Seeing several people picking things, the boss smiled and started chatting with Song Manman, "Are you here to visit our village?"

"Ah!?" After a pause, Song Manman shook her head and said, "No, we are originally from this village."

Looking at Song Manman carefully, the boss exclaimed and said with a smile: "I know, you are Aunt Manman from the Song family!"

"Yeah!" Although she didn't know how the boss recognized her, Song Manman still nodded politely in response.

However, Song Manman almost couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood when she heard the other party address her. She was only thirty years old, so how could she be an aunt?

After knowing Song Manman's identity, the boss seemed to open up.

"When Grandma Chen came back a few years ago, she often mentioned Aunt Manman. It is because of you that the girls in our village have a much better life."

Hearing this, Ling Zheng couldn't help but come over to join in the fun, "My aunt has this ability!"

"Of course not. Aunt Manman is the first girl in our area to be admitted to university. Later, Grandma Chen came back and said that Aunt Manman became a big boss. The lives of girls in our area have improved a lot. Before, our families only wanted to marry us off in exchange for some gifts, but now they hope that we can make a lot of money like Aunt Manman to help our brothers at home."

When he was talking about the beginning, his eyes were full of hope, but when he was talking about the end, his voice gradually weakened.

The boss sneered and looked at Ling Zheng in surprise, saying, "Are you Xiao Ming? Why do you look different from before?"

"Sister Lan, I'm really sad to hear this. You can even make a mistake with me." Putting the selected items on the counter, Song Ming said pretending to be concerned.

Upon seeing Song Ming, the boss patted his head with a look of regret, "Ah! It's my fault, it's my fault. You two look about the same age and look a bit alike. I accidentally made a mistake."

After hearing how Song Ming addressed the other party, Song Manman finally came out of the complicated feelings of being called aunt by the other party.

"Did you open this shop yourself?"

Hearing Song Manman speak, the boss immediately looked at Song Manman and replied: "Yes! I failed the college entrance examination, so I asked Grandma Chen for advice and opened a small shop here. I can take care of my own food and drink on weekdays and save some money."

When she said this, the girl's eyes were full of anticipation for the future.

Unexpectedly, there was something about her own mother. Song Manman was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's fine."

Just when Song Manman didn't know what to say, Song Yi came over with a bunch of snacks and Little Orange, saying, "Aunt, we've finished choosing."

"You are Xiaoyi, right? I will definitely not make a mistake." Looking at Song Yi's profile, the boss said softly with a little shyness.

Song Yi, who had been concentrating on taking care of Xiaojuzi and had not heard the others chatting, looked at them in confusion and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"You... don't remember me. I'm Gan Lanlan. When we used to play games, I always followed you." After saying that, Gan Lanlan glanced at Song Yi and quickly lowered her head.

Hearing this, Song Manman stood aside, took a bite of ice cream, and looked at Song Yi.

The other brothers also looked at Song Yi as if they were watching the fun.

Being stared at by a group of people with a look of excitement, Song Yi coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "Oh, I remember, I remember, Sister Lan, it's been a long time, a long time."

Seeing Song Yi remembered, Gan Lanlan smiled and said, "Well! It's been a long time since we last met. Why did you come back this time?"

"Come back and see."

Just when Song Yi was feeling a little embarrassed, Little Orange tugged at the corner of his clothes and said in a baby voice, "I want another candy."

Seeing Xiaojuzi, Gan Lanlan's expression seemed to crack, and she said dryly: "Is this... your daughter?"

This sentence frightened Song Yi so much that he coughed repeatedly. He waved his hands in panic and said, "No...no...no, how could it be possible? This is my sister."

"So it's my sister. Then I'll give you a candy!"

Seeing Gan Lanlan handing candy to Xiaojuzi, Song Yi quickly stopped her and said, "No, no, just calculate the original price."

"It's just a candy." Gan Lanlan calculated the price of the other things Song Yi and the others had taken, "A total of three dollars and twenty cents."

Hearing this price, Ling Xing's eyes widened in shock. He approached Song Manman and whispered, "Is this price real?"

"Of course." After giving Ling Xing a blank look, Song Manman took out three yuan and twenty cents and handed it to Gan Lanlan.

Seeing Song Manman paid the money, Song Yi picked up Xiaojuzi and hurried out of the store.

When seeing Song Yi leave the store, a hint of loss flashed across Gan Lanlan's eyes.

After walking out of the store for a while, Song Ming clicked his tongue twice and teased Song Yi, "Brother, you've attracted another peach blossom!"

Staring at Song Ming dangerously, Song Yi sneered and said, "Are you free?"

Not daring to provoke the elder brother Song Yi, Song Ming approached Song Manman and said, "Aunt, what are you thinking about so seriously? You haven't said much since just now."

"I'm thinking about being called aunt." After taking a look at Song Manman, Ling Zheng said bluntly.
