The bicycle that Sha Zhu rode had been pushed back to the yard by Lin Donglai's uncle, who thought that even if he went to Lingzi's house, he could pick up the bicycle on the way.

When the two of them walked into Uncle Donglai's house together, Lin Donglai smiled and said, "Wow, they are now a couple. I'm so envious!"

Lingzi was angry and embarrassed when she heard this, and she chased Lin Donglai and wanted to hit him: "Just laugh, and when you find someone, don't blame your cousin for being rude."

Lin Donglai quickly hid behind Sha Zhu and continued to tease her: "Brother Zhu, look, your partner is too fierce. Won't you be beaten every day after you get married?"

He dodged left and right while laughing, and successfully avoided every attack from Lingzi, which made her so angry that she wanted to make a scene, but she was helpless.

With a loud "pa" sound, Sha Zhu was slapped on the arm. He quickly turned around and tried to escape from this place.

But as long as Lingzi didn't stop, Lin Donglai would use Sha Zhu as a shield, and soon Sha Zhu was kicked twice and slapped.

Finally, he couldn't help but yelled, "I say, you two, you can fight or make noise, but can you please not let me get caught in the middle? It hurts!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Donglai could not help laughing, and Lingzi felt a little annoyed when she heard that Sha Zhu was hurt by her accident, and finally stopped what she was doing.

Lin Donglai watched the three of them dancing, clapping and laughing: "Brother, you are really amazing. Sister Lingzi hit you so many times, but you didn't get hit at all."

"Of course, my skills are not for nothing. Brother Zhuzi wants to learn but can't, right Sister Lingzi?"

Lingzi raised her hand again, but when she saw him pulling Shazhu in front of her as a shield, she endured the pain and put her hand down.

"Donlai, you're annoying! I won't pay attention to you." After saying that, she turned away with a stern face.

Seeing that the girl was angry, Sha Zhu quickly unloaded the things he brought from the bicycle and took out a bottle of Erguotou and a bag of brown sugar.

He brought it to Lin Donglai's uncle and said, "Grandpa, this is a gift to you. It's a little small, please don't mind."

The old man narrowed his eyes in a smile, gave the candy to the old woman and kept the wine for himself. This boy had thought of everything so carefully, and he was right about him.

After accepting the sugar and wine, the old man nodded at Shazhu, indicating that he should look at Lingzi, who was angry.

Sha Zhu smiled and nodded, carrying the remaining things and said to Lingzi: "Lingzi, Donglai is naughty and we don't want to play with him. Let's go to your house now, okay?"

Lingzi rolled her eyes at Lin Donglai, said goodbye to the old man, and turned to walk out of the courtyard gate.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu hurriedly followed him and coaxed, "Lingzi, Donglai is just a naughty boy. He just likes to tease you. Don't take it seriously."

Lingzi didn't really take it seriously. She just hit Shazhu a few times and was provoked a few times, so she couldn't find a way to back down.

Now that Sha Zhu had given her a way out, her expression quickly turned from gloomy to bright and she smiled again.

Sha Zhu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the two continued chatting and laughing as they quickly walked towards Lingzi's house.

From time to time on the road, someone would greet Lingzi: "Lingzi, is there a guest at home? Is this your relative?"

Lingzi nodded and smiled shyly. The brave one started jokingly: "Lingzi, this isn't your girlfriend, is she?"

Without waiting for Lingzi to reply, Silly smiled and replied: "My fellow countryman, you have good taste, I give you a thumbs up!"

What Sha Zhu said made Lingzi blush to her ears, and she quickly quickened her pace and walked towards home.

When we arrived at Lingzi's house, Lingzi's parents had already set up the table and chairs in the yard, with some melon seeds, peanuts and tea on the table.

Sha Zhu was not shy. After greeting him, the first thing he did was to take out the things he had brought with him: "Uncle, these are two bottles of wine for you."

"Aunt, this is the brown sugar I brought for you." He turned around and looked at Lingzi: "Lingzi, when we get to the city, I will buy you whatever you like."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lingzi didn't hesitate and agreed.

After Lingzi's parents asked Shazhu to sit down, they went to prepare lunch, planning to call Lin Donglai and the others to come and eat together after the meal was ready.

Sha Zhu and Lingzi were left sitting in the yard. Sha Zhu said flattering words to please Lingzi. The more they talked, the more they got along. They even felt that they had met too late.

Time passed quickly, and it was almost noon. The sun was getting hotter, and people working in the fields were walking back to the village.

Seeing that the meal was almost ready, Lingzi's father hurried to his uncle's house to invite them to eat together. His uncle thought about Lin Donglai and said:

"Old Third, Donglai and I have things to do. Let's go to the village entrance first and we can come to your place later."

"Brother Fugui, what's so urgent? Can't we talk about it after dinner?"

So the uncle told Lin Donglai that he needed to collect mountain products for the factory, and he wanted to help out at noon when everyone liked to gather at the village entrance.

Lingzi's father heard this and said: "In that case, I'll go too. I might be able to help."

So the three of them walked towards the village entrance. When they arrived there, they saw a lot of people gossiping around.

My uncle cleared his throat and said, "I want to ask everyone, does anyone have any extra mountain products to sell?"

"Brother Fugui, have you finished eating the wild mushrooms and fungus that you and Aunt Fugui picked earlier?"

"I do have some at home, but my husband said he wanted to keep them for giving away. A buyer came some time ago and didn't even let me exchange them."

"Uncle Fugui, I don't have that. Are you collecting it for others?" a thin and dark man asked, glancing at Lin Donglai.

When Donglai's uncle heard this, he replied, "Fourth son, bring them all here. As long as the items are good, my nephew will give them all to you."

"Yes, the price is easy to negotiate." Lin Donglai met his gaze and added.

"Don't worry, this guy is not only a buyer, but also my nephew. We all know each other and he won't cheat you."

After the old man finished speaking, many people at the entrance of the village began to whisper to each other, and one after another, people began to walk home.

After a while, someone came back to the village entrance with freshly dried wild mushrooms and fungus, saying that Lin Donglai could help dispose of them.

But he didn't need money, he wanted tickets. Lin Donglai agreed immediately and exchanged them for sugar tickets according to his request.

Once someone took the lead, the matter became much easier. People came in an endless stream to take the mountain products from their homes and exchange them for the money or tickets they wanted.

The guy named Si'er was the last to arrive, and he brought the most things, two large bags of black fungus and wild mushrooms, which were well-dry and sun-dried.

"I want to use these to exchange for cloth coupons. If there are no cloth coupons, I won't exchange them." After saying that, he looked at Lin Donglai with wide eyes, waiting for his response.

As luck would have it, Lin Donglai actually had cloth coupons in his bag. This was his habit; after all, it was better to be prepared.

When he took out the cloth coupons from his bag and handed them to Si'er, the boy's eyes suddenly lit up...
