"Xiaomai, we will be waiting to buy your fruit by then." Du Qing'ai said.
Qiao Xiaomai responded crisply, "I promise I won't cheat my fellow villagers, everyone look forward to eating sweet fruit!"
After sending these people away, Qiao Xiaomai carried their money basket into the house and then went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
After dinner, the day passed quickly.
In the evening, Tong Sanlang came for a visit. Qiao Xiaomai told him about the University President Gu visiting their secret tunnel with his students, then they started to chat idly.
Tong Sanlang went hunting in the mountains today and exchanged his spoils for twenty taels of silver, which he used to buy two acres of land.
He was to continue planting sweet potatoes tomorrow.
"Wow, will they rebel if you keep tormenting them like this?" Qiao Xiaomai couldn't help but mention how miserable the Tong family members looked the day before.
