Zhou Xiaoyun, as usual, loaded a bunch of things onto Zhou Guoqiang's tricycle and was surprised to find that there were three tea stalls at the market, including her own.

  It seems like I won't be able to earn a single penny!

  Zhou Xiaoyun sighed and quickly set up the table with her nimble hands and feet.

  Luckily, the tea stall is open every day from early morning to noon before closing, so they don't lose any money. Zhou Xiaoyun thinks of ways to improve business and comes up with all sorts of ideas, such as "buy two cups get one free" or "drink soda and get a cup of tea for free".

  Can those two adults running a tea stall be her opponents?

  Just looking at Zhou Xiaoyun's smiling face and lovely appearance makes people willing to come and buy vegetables!

  Zhou Xiaoyun also specially set up a branch stall, which is to set up another tea stall in the market every time it encounters a gathering. Others' businesses are good and they open branches, why can't we also set up a branch stall?

  Nature is a great treasure, and the vegetable market is being taken care of by Zhao Yu Zhen herself at the market. Zhou Xiao Yun would not dare to let Da Bao go to the market alone, or else he would just waste money on soda and snacks.

  How come there are more people coming and going in the market than in the vegetable market!

  The money earned by Zhou Xiaoyun was handed over to the majority of her own accord, and she would only take two yuan every day and throw it into the new big belly Maitreya Buddha piggy bank.

  Zhou Xiaoyun learned from past bitter lessons, the small piggy bank was easily filled and soon had to be broken. This large-bellied Maitreya Buddha has a capacity several times larger, let's see how much you can fill it with.

  Summer is the season that children love most. Although it's hot and there are many mosquitoes, the two-month summer vacation is just so much fun. Moreover, there are many delicious foods in summer. Ice pops, soda water, liangfen (a type of Chinese noodle), and especially watermelon, are all yummy treats that can't be counted.

  It's the season when watermelons are on the market, and they're so cheap that it's unbelievable. For just 80 cents, you can buy a 7-8 pound watermelon, soak it in a small well for half a day, and then cut it open to eat in the evening, which is especially refreshing and thirst-quenching.

  There are vendors selling watermelons, pushing flat carts and shouting for sales. Zhao Yuzhen often buys three or four of them to put at home, enough to eat for two days. One in the afternoon and one in the evening, everyone's appetite suddenly decreases and they start eating watermelon instead.

  Zhou Xiaoyun was eating watermelon and thought that the current watermelon is so sweet, with plenty of juice and a sandy texture. One bite and the sweetness reached her heart.

  Dabao eats watermelon, never eating it slice by slice. He cuts a half of the watermelon with a knife and then uses a spoon to scoop out the pulp to eat. In the end, he can even drink the watermelon juice.

  Whenever the family is enjoying watermelon, Xiaobao is always the most pitiful. Don't know what kind of constitution he has, every time he eats watermelon, he will definitely get diarrhea, it's a hundred percent guarantee. He looks at everyone eating with envy, turning around in circles, finally Zhao Yu Zhen takes pity on him and cuts a small piece to satisfy his craving.

  It was just a small piece, only two finger widths wide. Xiaobao carefully ate it up in small mouthfuls for more than half a day before finishing that small piece, and the cool sweetness surged to his heart.

  After taking a bath, the whole family gathered together to watch TV. Coincidentally, the TV series "The Legend of Archery" was popular at that time, and everyone from young to old was fascinated by it. If you don't discuss it for a couple of sentences when meeting each other, it's simply too out of date.

  The silly Guo Jing, the clever Huang Rong, have captivated countless young men and women. Children also love to watch it, which shows how popular martial arts dramas are.

  Dabao holds his homemade wooden sword, humming and pretending to be a great hero, forcing Xiaobao to play the role of a villain like Ouyang Ke or Yang Kang, making him suffer a crushing defeat. Xiaobao refuses to play the villain, so Dabao chases him around the house with his sword, scaring him into screams.

  Dabao's good friend Shi Tou has arrived, and Dabao finally found a kindred spirit.

  His name is Shi Tong, nicknamed Stone. Zhou Xiaoyun sometimes had the wicked thought that a person's name might be wrong, but their nickname would never be wrong, and indeed he was stupid like a stone.

  Shítou and Dàbǎo have been inseparable since childhood, their personalities are a perfect match. Whatever Dàbǎo is like, Shítou is the same. They've done everything together - climbing trees to steal bird eggs, fishing for shrimp in the river, skipping class, getting into fights... nothing has ever come between them! It's truly a case of "dragons befriend dragons, phoenixes befriend phoenixes" - they're a perfect match made in heaven!

  Two people each holding a wooden "treasured sword" were fighting happily, from the courtyard to the top of the haystack, and when they were all sweaty, they went to the pond to take a bath.

  So, which boy doesn't love summer?

  Girls are naturally more elegant when they're together, but the skipping rope culture has also been firmly occupied by martial arts dramas. Listen to the nursery rhyme sung while skipping rope:

  Silly Guo Jing, loves Huang Rong, hehehe old naughty boy.

  Flower Master Ou Yangke, Dragon Subduing Dog Beating Hong Qigong.

  The beautiful maiden is Hua Zheng, the clever maiden is Huang Rong.

  Nian Ci Nian Ci told you, Yang Kang is not a good thing.

  Haha, it's like a martial arts movie!

  Forget what it is, just jump happily. Zhou Xiaoyun recited a smooth and catchy nursery rhyme while jumping rope, showing off her skills, mighty and invincible, the undisputed champion among all the village girls!

  Zhou Xiaoxia is also a master of jumping rope, often partnering with Zhou Xiaoyun to form an unbeatable duo that leaves their opponents standing still for half the day. As time goes on, their companions can't take it anymore and demand that they break up or find new partners in black and white pairs.

  Zhou Xiaoyun had no choice, originally jumping rope was something her friends dragged her into. At home, she had a lot on her plate, the music sheet Fang Wenchao gave her before summer break still hadn't been practiced thoroughly, and every day she had to accompany Dabao in practicing calligraphy. She had already gone from writing herself to being an accompaniment, seeing Dabao's handwriting getting better and better made Zhou Xiaoyun happier than when she wrote well herself.

  Anyway, practicing calligraphy is only for cultivating sentiment and increasing temperament, and I'm not planning to become a calligrapher when I grow up. Being able to write beautifully is enough to impress Zhou Xiaoyun, and that's all that matters. Now, gradually putting it down, there's nothing to regret.

  Dabao finally persisted in practicing calligraphy with a brush for a year, and his rough temperament has changed unknowingly. Of course, it's still hard to see where the beauty of writing lies, but the prospects are boundless!

  Actually, people often have a misconception that as long as they write well with a brush pen, they will definitely write well with a ballpoint pen. This is a beautiful misunderstanding. Brush pen and ballpoint pen are two completely different concepts. If you don't practice brush pen for five or six years, you won't be able to produce decent characters, which has little impact on your daily handwriting.

  Zhou Xiaoyun never explained the fact to her brother Da Bao, letting him happily practice writing with a brush and fantasize that he was already a famous calligrapher.

  Anyway, Dabao has become much more stable and the number of times he gets into fights has drastically decreased, showing a tendency to turn over a new leaf. This makes Zhou Xiaoyun extremely satisfied, after all, it's a gradual process!

  Xiao Bao has been targeting Zhou Xiaoyun since he entered first grade, and his diligent study habits have made Zhou Xiaoyun very pleased. He plans to wait for another two years until Er Ya starts school, and then he'll really put her through the wringer, haha! Only those who don't study hard will not make progress.

  Er Ya was born with a personality that loved to throw tantrums and be pampered. At this moment, she was leaning against Zhou Guo Qiang's side, still asking to sit on his lap to watch TV. Zhou Guo Qiang couldn't help but love this youngest child, so he picked her up and put her on his lap.

  The two sisters watched the cartoon with relish, completely unaware that their sister's idea had hit them on the head.
