    Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and put her hands behind her back. “It’s Ning Xiaoxiao.”


    Ning Eng was speechless.


    After he left, Ning Dng came over and said to his sister, “Have you ever thought that after the bamboo shoot season passes, the sour bamboo shoots business won’t be able to continue?”


    Xiaoxiao nodded. She knew that the smart big brother would react very quickly. “Big brother, don’t worry. I have my ns. I didn’t n to make it a long-term business. The food we eat is during the season. If it’s like this every day and the seasons don’t change, we won’t be annoyed, and the customers will be tired of eating.”


    “It’s just that we can’t do anything else in our current situation. Let’s have the bamboo shoots business and save some capital first.”


    Seeing that she had a n, Ning Dng was relieved and went to help her peel the bamboo shoots and scald them. Xiaoxiao looked at her brother’s slender fingers and felt that doing such a thing was a waste for him. Hence, she took advantage of the next time she went to the city to hand in the embroidery and get the materials and ran to the bookstore called “Ink Fragrance Pavilion”, the one Ning Dng could not help but stop at.


    Ning Fengnian and his wife worried their daughter would be in danger if she ran alone, so they asked the two brothers to have someone protect her. Xiaoxiao didn’t want her eldest brother to know what she would do, so her second brother was the person who apanied her. Ning Eng didn’t like to read since he was young. That was the extent of his headache when he saw books, so he wasn’t interested in the bookstore at all. He didn’t understand why his sister was so excited.


    “Sis, why are you looking at this thing?”


    Xiaoxiao scratched her head and said, “Second Brother, it’s Big Brother’s birthday soon. I want to give him a gift.”


    Ning Eng was very jealous, but he was too embarrassed to show it. “Have you thought about what you want to give him? Don’t tell me you n to buy it for Eldest Brother here?”


    The things here were too expensive. They probably couldn’t afford them.


    Xiaoxiao also noticed it, so after looking around, she walked out dejectedly.


    Even if she thought of a way to earn the money, he would probably not be happy if she bought it for her brother. Spending money to buy these things was irrational when they were not even full.


    It was the family motto of their family. No matter how much money they earned or what kind of life they led, they must not bite off more than they could chew.


    Sighing in disappointment, she walked forward for a while, but she walked into a wine shop. Ning Eng was so frightened that he blocked her way. “The wine is not suitable either. Eldest Brother doesn’t drink it.”


    Xiaoxiao pouted. “You only know how to eat. 1 bought it to make new food.


    Have you forgotten about that young master from the county office?”


    He had forgotten. It was mainly because he didn’t think his sister could develop anything new. It was already blind luck to have a bamboo shoot business.


    When Xiaoxiao thought about food, her brain became especially nimble. After sorting out theyers of rtionships, she felt that this matter was even more promising. Hence, she regained her confidence and bought peppers, cinnamon, star anise, and other spices. She also replenished the various seasonings that were no longer avable at home.


    When they bought the oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar, Ning Eng felt he had to get the cart first. Then, Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “We can’t keep borrowing the neighbor’s cart. Why don’t we buy one ourselves?”


    As soon as she started arguing, it would be too easy for Ning Eng, who looked stubborn but was obsessed with his sister, to agree. Hence, when the two arrived at the Ruyi Clothing Shop, Ning Eng was pushing a new cart filled with things in a daze.


    Xiaoxiao smiled and asked her brother if he was tired. She even massaged his back enthusiastically. Ning Eng took a deep breath and felt he might have owed this ancestor in his previous life. He was very tired but inexplicably coaxed and waved his hand happily. “Alright, go in..”
