Chapter 13

Zhang Dong had no idea that Yang Mingyan had actually avoided him by claiming she had something to do.

He rode his tricycle and roamed through most of the county town, spending a lot of money.

Not only did he buy a new set of clothes for his sister, but he also specially picked out a set of cosmetics for her!

Just the cosmetics alone cost nearly three thousand yuan.

However, Zhang Dong did not feel the pain of spending the money. The two of them had always relied on each other, and his sister would always save the best for him, even if she herself did not want to eat it.

As for cosmetics, she had never used anything other than the cheapest lip balm.

At her age, she had endured so much hardship, not only working hard but also supporting his education.

Now that he had earned money, he naturally wanted to make up for it.

When he got home,

Zhang Zhaodi's eyes welled up when she saw the gifts her brother had bought for her.

It was clear that she liked the gifts he had chosen for her.

But in the end, she still shook her head and scolded, "Dongzi, you're just wasting money. I don't use cosmetics. Take them back tomorrow!"

Zhang Dong shook his head firmly and said earnestly, "Sis, our family won't be poor anymore! I won't let you suffer anymore! And I have some good news to tell you..."

As Zhang Dong spoke, Zhang Zhaodi's eyes widened.

"A big cabbage can sell for 130 yuan!"

Her beautiful eyes were full of surprise, and Zhang Zhaodi clearly didn't believe it.

"That's right, rarity makes things valuable! The cabbages I grow are unique, delicious, and nutritious, worth every penny!" Zhang Dong said with a smile.

After a moment's thought, Zhang Zhaodi nodded.

Even she had to admit that the cabbages her brother had grown were indeed amazing.

In an instant, she felt a mix of emotions. Just a few days ago, they were still worrying about money.

But now, her brother had already earned more than ten thousand yuan!

That night, both of them had trouble sleeping.

The next morning, Zhang Dong, with dark circles under his eyes, got up early and made a bowl of longevity noodles for his sister.

When he brought the longevity noodles to the living room, Zhang Zhaodi also came out.

After yesterday's persuasion, she had given up the idea of returning the clothes and cosmetics. At Zhang Dong's urging, she even put on the new clothes and applied light makeup.

Although Zhang Dong knew that his sister had always been a beauty, even without makeup, she was still one of the most beautiful girls in the surrounding area.

But when he really saw his sister in a dress and light makeup, he was still stunned.

He stared at her in a daze, almost dropping the bowl of longevity noodles.

Is this still my sister?

Her fair face was lightly powdered, making her skin look even more beautiful.

Her natural eyeliner and long lashes added a touch of brilliance to her lively eyes.

Especially the fresh and elegant aura she exuded, which truly proved the old saying that clothes make the person!

In fact, Zhang Zhaodi had always had a refined aura, but her old clothes made her look plain.

Now, in a fashionable dress, she looked even more stylish than city girls!

Zhang Dong secretly compared her to Yang Mingyan and found that they were evenly matched!

Yang Mingyan had a fiery figure, while his sister had delicate features. The two women's auras were equally impressive, making them a match.

Seeing her brother's stunned look, Zhang Zhaodi blushed, "Dongzi, do I look terrible in this?"

As she spoke, a rosy blush appeared on her fair face, making her even more beautiful.

Hearing this, Zhang Dong snapped out of his daze and waved his hands, "What do you mean terrible? You look absolutely beautiful! Like a celestial being! More beautiful than any city girl I've ever seen! Whoever marries you in the future will be blessed for eight generations!" Zhang Dong said sincerely.

It was indeed true.

In terms of beauty, Zhang Zhaodi was even more beautiful than Yang Mingyan, though her figure was not as full.

After all, city women had better nutrition and better development in that area!

Being praised as a celestial being and hearing about her future husband, Zhang Zhaodi's face turned even redder.

She pouted and scolded, "No nonsense! I'm not getting married!"

Zhang Dong chuckled, "Don't worry, sis. I'll definitely earn a generous dowry for you and marry you off with great pomp!"

"Say that again, and I'll hit you!" Zhang Zhaodi stomped her foot in embarrassment and anger.

The two of them bickered as they finished breakfast. Afterward, Zhang Zhaodi did the housework, while Zhang Dong went to check the vegetable field.

After signing the contract with Yang Mingyan, he would need to supply her with a hundred cabbages every week.

Although they had planted many cabbages in the family's vegetable field, if they were consumed without replenishment, they would run out soon.

So he planned to buy more cabbage seeds in a couple of days.

Cabbages usually take about two months to mature, but due to the Lingyu Decision, they only needed a month to grow and could be ripened.

After examining the field for a while, Zhang Dong felt that the area of their vegetable field was still too small.

Looking around, he had the idea of renting the neighboring vegetable field.

However, the transfer of land in the countryside required the approval of the village chief. Given his relationship with Li You Tian, the other party probably wouldn't easily agree to this!

Thinking of this, he felt a bit angry.

That old lecher, Li You Tian, should be getting his comeuppance now.

Whether it was due to Zhang Dong's curses or some other reason,

Li You Tian, who was sneaking into Wang Yan's house, suddenly sneezed uncontrollably.

The sneeze made Li You Tian break out in a cold sweat, and he quickly looked around, as if afraid of being seen.

Wang Yan, who was lying on the bed playing with her phone, was also startled.

She sat up like a frightened rabbit, perked up her ears, and looked out the window.

She saw Li You Tian, like a thief, carefully moving toward her house.

She frowned, looking at her smooth and tender skin, and felt disgusted at what was about to happen.

That old lecher, he's really greedy.

He doesn't even know what he's made of, with only a few seconds of stamina, yet he comes to me every day, leaving me in a state of frustration.

Just then, Li You Tian had already sneaked into the house.

Seeing Wang Yan lying on the bed, wearing only a strapless top, Li You Tian's eyes gleamed like a hungry wolf, and he pounced.

"Old scoundrel, if you can't last three minutes this time, don't come to me again!" Wang Yan scolded, but she didn't avoid Li You Tian's rough, black hands.

"Hehe, don't worry, I took some medicine before coming. I can definitely last three to five minutes!" Li You Tian said confidently.

A moment later, Li You Tian successfully aroused Wang Yan and was about to start.

But at that moment, he found that he had no reaction at all!

Li You Tian panicked; this was the first time this had happened!

Wang Yan also noticed his condition and frowned, "Old scoundrel, did you take the wrong medicine? Why are you not reacting at all?"

"No, no!" Li You Tian forced a smile, "It's the same medicine I usually take, and it's always been effective. I guess... I guess I'm a bit tired. Just help me out!"

Wang Yan, already aroused, reluctantly did as Li You Tian said.

But no matter how hard she tried, Li You Tian still had no reaction.

This time, Li You Tian was really scared and asked in confusion, "What's going on? Is there really something wrong with the medicine?"

Wang Yan angrily punched his skinny chest, "You useless man, get out! Get out now!"

Even if Wang Yan hadn't told him to leave, Li You Tian would have left. He needed to go back and check if there was something wrong with the medicine!
