Ji Yuanyuan was now a weak little child, so she couldn't help much. She could only watch from the side.
Li Xu worked very quickly, she took the shovel and quickly turned the ground.
However, there was a lot of ground. In the afternoon, only half of it was turned over.
In the afternoon, the three children went to school as usual. After a whole morning, Ji Yuanyuan had completely adapted to the rhythm of a primary school student.
In the evening, the first grade finished school early, so Ji Yuanyuan went to wait for him outside Ji Zi'ang's class.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the fourth grade ended.
The group of children walked out. Ji Yuanyuan stuck her head out to look, but she did not see Ji Zi'ang.
Suddenly, Ji Zi'ang reached out to pat her, "What are you looking at?"
Ji Yuanyuan looked down and saw Ji Zi'ang.
Then, she sighed helplessly.
This Ji Zi'ang was too short.
He was already nine years old this year. A normal nine-year-old child should be around 1.3 meters tall. It was considered a stage where one needed to buy a ticket to take a bus, and one also needed to pay half price to go to the park.
However, Ji Zi'ang's height was still around 1.2 meters.
Among a group of children of the same age, he was half a head shorter than them.
No wonder Ji Yuanyuan did not see him just now.
In her previous life, Ji Yuanyuan did not participate in Ji Zi'ang's growth and did not know how he grew up.
At this time, not only was Ji Zi'ang short, he was also dark and looked very ordinary.
No one knew how he grew up to be so handsome.
Although he was a professional racer who relied on his strength to make a living, his face had attracted a lot of fans in his previous life.
Thinking of this, Ji Yuanyuan let out a long sigh. Coincidentally, Ji Zixuan came over, and the three of them went home together.
At night, Li Xu finally finished flipping the ground and scattered all the seeds.
"Mom, shall we sell all these fruits tomorrow?" Ji Yuanyuan suggested before going to bed.
The fruits in the space were ripe long ago, but she had not picked them yet.
Li Xu pondered for a moment before saying, "Okay, let's try it tomorrow. It'll be a good time to practice."
Ji Yuanyuan woke up early the next morning. She and Li Xu entered the space again and picked a basket full of fruits.
There were about a dozen fruit trees over there. There were only three types: apples, pears, and peaches.
Li Xu did not touch any of the apples or pears, she only picked some peaches.
Apples and pears were fruits that matured in autumn. There were many of them on the market now, so they were not worth much. However, peaches were different. The peaches on the market were basically sold out by the end of August. Although they could still be bought in September, they were all smaller and not very sweet.
It was the end of October now. Although they could still buy peaches, they were all stored in the cold storage. After being refrigerated for a long time, the texture was a little worse.
However, the peaches inside were different. They were all freshly picked and had a very good texture. The sales would definitely be good.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded his head in appreciation. Her mother was quite smart in doing business.
She did not know how the market was doing, so Li Xu did not dare to pick more. She only picked about 50 kilograms.
She also picked a few apples and pears for Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi'ang to eat.
After picking the fruits, Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi'ang had not gotten up yet. The two of them had a bit of a fight last night, so Li Xu did not call them. She wanted to take advantage of the morning rush to test the waters.
Li Xu was carrying a basket of peaches by herself. Ji Yuanyuan followed closely behind her as the two of them went to the market nearby.
This was the county's largest vegetable market. There were people from morning to night.
Li Xu did not pay the stall fee and did not dare to go in. She could only find an empty seat outside and squat down. This was the wind gap. It was still a little cold in the early morning, Li Xu held Ji Yuanyuan in her arms and asked in a low voice, "Yuanyuan, are you cold? How about I buy some buns for you?"
Ji Yuanyuan shook his head, "I'm not hungry, Mommy. Let's go home and eat after we sell them."
Li Xu was about to say something when a fashionable-looking woman came over, "Big sister, how much are these peaches?"
"70 cents per catty." Li Xu sounded a little guilty.
In summer, peaches were usually around 40 cents. Some good-looking peaches could be sold for 50 cents.
The reason why she said 70 cents was to give people room to bargain. In her heart, the price was 50 to 60 cents per catty.
After all, peaches were not common nowadays, and these peaches were big and sweet.
The woman muttered, "So expensive."
It was Li Xu's first time doing business, and when she heard this, her face flushed red.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan said, "Big Sister, our peaches are all grown by ourselves. They're big and sweet, let me give you a taste."
As she spoke, she took the fruit knife from the box and handed it to Li Xu, "Mommy, cut a large piece and let Big Sister have a taste."
Only then did Li Xu come back to her senses, she quickly cut a peach and gave a quarter to the woman.
The woman saw that Ji Yuanyuan was cute and had a sweet mouth. She could not help but laugh, "Little friend, you're so beautiful."
Ji Yuanyuan smiled and revealed a row of beautiful teeth, "Big Sister, you're also very beautiful."
The woman took the peach from Li Xu's hand and took a bite. Her eyes widened instantly, "What a sweet peach."
Ji Yuanyuan smugly exchanged glances with Li Xu.
After eating, the woman said, "Sister, give me 10 catties."
Li Xu's eyes widened in disbelief, "10 catties?"
The woman smiled and nodded, "Yes, give me 10 catties."
Li Xu quickly weighed it for the woman, then lifted the scale high.
Seeing this, the woman nodded in satisfaction.
After handing the money to Li Xu, she asked again, "Sister, what else do you grow at home? Will you come again in the future?"
Li Xu hurriedly nodded, "I will, I want to rent a booth inside. I also grow some vegetables at home, they are about to mature."
The woman smiled and said, "Alright, I will come again in the future."
After the woman left, Li Xu touched the seven Yuan and smiled very happily, "Yuanyuan, Mommy has earned money. What do you want to eat later? Mommy will buy it for you."
Ji Yuanyuan thought for a moment, then leaned over to Li Xu's ear and whispered, "Let's save money and buy a cow. Then we can give second brother milk every day, and he will grow taller."
She didn't think so at first, but when he saw Ji Zi'ang standing with a boy his age today, she realized that he was really too short.
In fact, Li Xu had been worried about this problem for a long time.
If the boy grew short, it wouldn't be easy for him to find a wife in the future.
However, what puzzled her was that Ji Jianguo, and she were both quite tall, so why was Ji Zi'ang so short?
She didn't know who he was following after.
"A calf costs four to five hundred yuan. We don't have that kind of money." Li Xu shook her head.
After a pause, she said, "When we go back, buy one catty and try drinking it for a while."
There was no need to try, there was scientific evidence to support that drinking milk could increase one's height.
Ji Yuanyuan was anxious, but she still looked ignorant on the surface.
That woman bought ten catties of peach, Ji Yuan and Li Xu stayed for almost half an hour, but not even a person come to ask.
