Everyone immediately left when they heard this, but they didnt disperse. Instead, most of them followed the Zhang family to watch the show.

When the village chief saw this, he shook his head and followed. Zhang Laosan was a hooligan, and the village chief was afraid that he would do something even more shameless.

It didnt take long for the news to spread in the village.

Under Zhang Laodas pressure and the village chiefs witness, Zhang Qingqings mother and her two children took 20 taels of silver, 10 pounds of black flour, a sack of dried vegetables, and two acres of land. They went to Zhang Laoers familyZhang Laosans older brother. Zhao Laoer had died but hadnt left behind a child.

As for Aunt Zhang, when the village chief asked Zhang Laosan to sign a guarantee agreement, she was opposed by the whole family, so she had to leave.

In the evening, all the outsiders in the village had left.

Only the village heads children, Sixth Aunt Gus daughter, and Gu Ziwens family were left behind. They moved into the homes of Qian Zhuang and Gu Erjiang.

At night, after Guo Chengsongs condition had stabilized, he didnt want to stay here anymore. Gu Chengrui had no choice but to send him back after changing his wound dressing.

Just as they left, Zhang Qingqing came to visit again.

Zhou Ying looked at the purple mark on her forehead and was stunned for a moment. Doctor Gu isnt here. Let me treat your wound.

Thank you, Zhang Qingqing said after a pause.

After she thanked Zhou Ying, she followed her into the house. After she had her wound treated, she knelt and requested, Manager Zhou, please buy me. Otherwise, the three of us wont be able to live.

Thats impossible. Zhou Ying replied without hesitation.

The situation outside was probably much more serious than what she had seen.

If she started this trend, she was sure that a long line of people would come to her to buy them the next morning. There may even be parents who throw their children at their front door.

However, she didnt want to cause more trouble and couldnt expose her inters.p.a.ce, so she would never take anyone in.

Zhang Qingqings face was full of despair after hearing this. The 10 pounds of black flour they got were only enough for the three of them to eat for ten days. But what were they going to do after that?

Thinking of the 20 taels of silver at home, she raised her head and said, Can Manager Zhou sell us some food?

Zhou Ying shook her head. My restaurant closed because I couldnt collect more raw ingredients. So I cant do anything about providing you with food.

I I dont want black flour or rice, just wheat, bran, and the like.

When Zhou Ying heard her say this, she quickly thought of Zhang Qingqings situation and knew she was at a dead end. I dont have anything you said, Zhou Ying said after a brief pause.

But I have some leftover tofu dregs here. Do you want it?

Tofu dregs arc fine too, as long as theyre edible.

Alright, wait a moment. After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she turned around and went to the kitchen. She took out a sack of tofu dregs from her inters.p.a.ce and put it in front of Zhang Qingqing. You can take a look at them. Theyre all dried. Although theyre not very fresh, theyre still edible.

Zhang Qingqings eyes lit up when she saw the sacks contents. She opened it and grabbed a handful of it. As expected, it was dry and ready for eating.

She then sniffed it. Other than the smell of sunlight, there was no moldy smell at all. This was a lifesaver in this drought.

Manager Zhou, how much will you sell the tofu dregs for? She quickly asked.

Two coppers per pound. Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment. Thinking of her situation, she gave Zhang Qingqing a fair price.

Zhang Qingqing was stunned for a moment. She quickly bowed and said, Thank you. Ive caused you trouble today. If you need my help in the future, just let me know.

Flour mixed with gra.s.s in town was sold for five coppers per pound, and there was a limited amount; such a price for the tofu dregs was a steal..
