Qiao Xinguo's carpentry skills are really impeccable. In just one afternoon, he not only made two beds, but also nailed a layer of wooden boards on the wall where the beds would be placed to prevent the wall dust from rubbing onto the beds.

The windows have been replaced with new wooden frames, and the two are planning to make a table and some chairs tomorrow, and then replace the front door.

My mother and Aunt Gao were also very capable. The two women built a decent double-pot earthen stove by themselves. They just had to wait for the chimney to be repaired and it could be used after it dried thoroughly.

Qiao Zhixia cooked rice on the makeshift stove set up outside and took out the cooked food she had bought so that they could fill their stomachs after a busy day.

After dinner, my parents sent the Gao couple away. Qiao Zhixia had already made the beds for them and boiled water on the stove. She mixed some water for them to wash their faces and brought it to the bedside.

Both the couple were in poor health and were helplessly tired after a long day, but they were still very happy looking at the little home they had tidied up.

"It will get better and better." Qiao Zhixia wrung the towel for her father.

Qiao Xinguo looked at his considerate and sensible daughter and smiled with relief: "Well, it will be fine."

Before going to bed, Qiao Zhixia and her mother hung up the curtains together. Her mother felt particularly sorry for the money when she saw the new material, and repeatedly told her to be frugal.

Qiao Zhixia agreed repeatedly and went to bring them some Chinese medicine.

At night, she slept very soundly, listening to the chirping of insects in the back hills and the even breathing of her parents in the other room.

In this life, she must protect her home.

In the early morning, when the roosters in the village just crowed, she got out of bed quietly.

She told her parents yesterday that she was going to the county town in the morning, where she planned to do business in partnership with someone.

The couple didn't know much about business, but they knew that Qiao Zhixia and Chen Jidong had been working in the county for three years, so they were naturally more useful than them, so they didn't ask much.

It was still dark when she left the house. Qiao Xinguo was worried and insisted on sending her to town.

The sky was just beginning to brighten when we got on the bus from the town to the county seat.

This time she set up her stall at the same place as last time, and planned to try out 500 kilograms first.

Just as we were moving the radishes off the tricycle, factory workers and their families who were passing by came over.

"Hey, little girl, what took you so long?" A retired old man who had bought radishes from her last time showed a surprised expression when he recognized Qiao Zhixia.

Qiao Zhixia was thinking about how to respond when she heard the old man say, "My grandson never eats radishes, but after he took a bite of your radish last time, he kept asking for more. I've been looking forward to it for a long time."

A curly-haired lady came up and said excitedly, "I don't know if it's a coincidence, but my husband had been suffering from toothache due to inflammation, and he took many medicines but none of them worked. But after eating your Yangyang radish for two days in a row, his toothache was gone. But he hasn't eaten it for the past ten days, and the pain is back."

A young intellectual man wearing glasses nearby couldn't help but feel skeptical after hearing these words:

"Is this carrot really that powerful? Isn't there going to be any problem?"

Qiao Zhixia was about to explain, but the curly-haired lady beat her to the punch:

"What's the problem? My son works at the Municipal Agricultural Research Institute. He also suspected that there was something fishy about this radish at first, so he cut a piece of it to do some research. It turned out that this Jingyang sweet radish is not only harmless to eat, but also contains more than ten times more nutrients than ordinary white radishes. Eating more of it is good for your health!"

After hearing this, Qiao Zhixia was shocked at first, and then smiled awkwardly. She didn't know that her white radish was so powerful.

You don’t have to feel guilty about promoting it in the future.

And judging from the situation, there will be no problem selling today's 5,000 kilograms of radishes.

"Weigh two for me."

"I have two too."

"I want four this time."

"I'm buying them as gifts. Give me eight..."

Qiao Zhixia was busy collecting money and delivering radishes to people.

In just two hours, all the 5,000 kilograms of white radishes in Qiao Zhixia's space were sold out.

One radish weighs about eight kilograms, and five thousand kilograms is only about six hundred pieces. Many people buy more than two at a time. There are many people coming in and out of the factory, so the products sell out quickly.

But people in the county town have limited purchasing power after all, and her radishes are not cheap. The reason they sold well this time is because she hasn't been here for a long time.

If you come every day, it may not sell well.

But this time the income was considerable, I made two thousand five hundred.

She packed up her stall and, just like last time, gave two radishes to the restaurant next door and gave some stall fees.

As she reached the counter, a familiar, sickening voice sounded behind her.

"Zhizhi, are you coming here to eat too? I heard that you just separated. The food in this restaurant is not cheap. You should spend the few hundred dollars in your hand sparingly! After all, Brother Dong can't support you anymore."

When Qiao Zhixia turned around, she saw that half of Wang Ruqiu's face was covered with several white spots caused by burns. The skin at the end of her right eye was slightly adhered, causing the corners of her eyes to droop downwards. She looked like she no longer had the radiance she once had.

But despite this, it did not affect the hidden pride in her eyes when she looked at Qiao Zhixia.

What on earth is she so proud of? Qiao Zhixia felt like vomiting and said sarcastically:

"Hey~ Isn't this Wang Zhiqing who pretended to jump into the river to die? He's still alive? It's a pity that his face is rotten. Is this retribution?"

The pride in Wang Ruoqiu's eyes was instantly replaced by anger, but at this time the restaurant owner came over.

"Xiao Qiao, you sold out today's vegetables so quickly again?"

"Yes, Boss Su, I left two more for you." Qiao Zhixia raised the two big radishes in his hand.

Wang Ruoqiu, who was originally very angry, suddenly became in a good mood when he learned that Qiao Zhixia came to the county town to sell vegetables.

"Zhizhi, so you are here to sell vegetables? I was wondering how you could possibly be willing to spend money on a restaurant, after all, you have always been frugal." There was a hint of sarcasm in Wang Ruoqiu's words.

Qiao Zhixia frowned, turned around and glared at her coldly, "What's wrong with me selling vegetables? That's more noble than you selling yourself!"

"...You..." Wang Ruoqiu almost vomited blood in anger.

She glanced awkwardly at the contemptuous looks directed at her in the store, and struggled to pull Qiao Zhixia to the stone steps outside the door.

After making sure that no one was paying attention, she changed her expression completely: "Qiao Zhixia, you are just jealous of me, right? Brother Dong chose me, and you offered yourself to him but he didn't want you. You must be very angry, right?"

Qiao Zhixia sneered: "I am really angry. I am angry that I was blind and mistook two pieces of shit for people. Now if I look at you for one more second, I feel like vomiting."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ruoqiu gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger. In her opinion, Qiao Zhixia's words were just a disguise to cover up her pain.

The more she thought about it, the more proud she became, with the arrogance of a winner on her face, "Do you know why he chose me? Because I am noble, and you... are too cheap. You have been working hard with him for four years, and he only gives you a salary of several dozen yuan a month, and he has never given you a gift, right?"

When Wang Ruoqiu said this, she looked at Qiao Zhixia's increasingly gloomy face, and the pride in her eyes became more and more obvious.

"But do you know? He spent all the money you earned with him on me. He bought my clothes, shoes and lipstick. He also accompanied me to eat Western food and watch movies... Is he willing to spend a penny on you? Where a man's money is, there is love!"

"Pa - are you done?" Qiao Zhixia's slap was faster than her mouth.

Wang Ruoqiu's eyes were red with anger, "You dare to hit me?"

"You're a bitch and you still want to show off. If I don't beat you, who else should I beat?"
