Chapter 159 Distributing New Year's Goods

Uncle Cao was dreaming of eating a big chicken leg when someone pushed him, causing the chicken leg to disappear from his mouth.

The next second, Uncle Cao opened his eyes. He couldn't make out who it was in the blur, but he knew it was Shi Xia.

Uncle Cao was used to it. He sat up with a steady heartbeat, put on his clothes, and quietly went out.

By the moonlight, Uncle Cao could see clearly.

"Big chicken leg—no, Shi Xia."

"How did Uncle Cao know I brought back a big chicken leg? Would you say we're telepathically connected?"

Uncle Cao: Can I say that all of this is a coincidence?

"Yes! We absolutely have to count! We're like two taciturn souls."

Uncle Cao is getting better and better at cooperating.

Shi Xia didn't waste any time and called out to several people in the same way.

However, the others were clearly not as mentally strong as Uncle Cao. If Shi Xia hadn't anticipated this and covered their mouths, they would have shouted out loud.

The nine people left Hai San Island furtively and went to the place where Shi Xia hid things.

He didn't ask any questions, didn't say anything, and just silently moved things.

After the items were moved back, they were all placed at the village office.

As the people carrying the things left, Uncle Cao and Accountant Xu called out to Shi Xia.

"Shi Xia, this is for you."

A bag of money was handed over, with a hundred-yuan bill making up a roll, totaling more than two thousand eight hundred yuan.

"This is?"

"We've already discussed your share of the profits."

When Uncle Cao mentioned it, Shi Xia realized that she had indeed said that to Uncle Cao at the beginning, but after spending several more time together, she fell in love with Hai San Island and forgot about it, or rather, she didn't care.

"Shi Xia, you should accept this. This is what you deserve. The house, and all the chicken, pork, and candy you brought back today, this amount of money is not enough."

"Yes, not to mention the rubies you brought back, which were all given away to the people in our village for free. You have to accept them."

Despite Cao Shu and Accountant Xu's persuasion, Shi Xia said without hesitation, "Okay, I'll accept it!"

The two were even happier than Shi Xia when she accepted the gift.

Next, let's talk about distributing New Year's goods.

"There are a total of 1,000 chickens and 4 pigs. They will be divided among the people, with 3 chickens for each person. I will keep the extra chickens for myself. The pork will also be distributed. Since it's the New Year, let's have a good New Year."

"Rice will also be distributed to everyone, so we can have some dry food...and candy too..."

Uncle Cao and Accountant Xu were both amused and exasperated. What was there to discuss? In short, they would divide it all up!

As for not even making excuses, since it's already in your stomach, what proof do you have?
After handing the matter over to Uncle Cao and Accountant Xu, Shi Xia went home.

Before she even entered the door, Little Eagle and Little Gold, who had grown quite a bit, flew out warily. Upon seeing Shi Xia, they came up to her from the left and right, trying to curry favor and even landing on her shoulders.

"Gentlemen, please take a look at your size. Do you still think you're babies?"

Little Eagle and Little Gold were unhappy and twisted their bodies, turning their buttocks towards Shi Xia.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. You really are little babies. I brought you something delicious, chicken, it's so juicy!"

Shi Xia returned carrying two chickens.

The little eagle and the little goldfish each flew away contentedly.

Shi Xia pushed open the door, but before she could take a step, Da Bai came over again.

She had a strange feeling that she had been caught by the wife having been involved with mistresses.

Wen Cheng'an from Haiming Island: I didn't even manage to become a legal wife? ???
Shi Xia squatted down and hugged Da Bai affectionately.

"Big White, I miss you so much. Have you missed me too?"

Big White Neck nimbly slipped out of Shi Xia's arm, its head pushing against her as if to say: Don't coax me.

"real!"

"Giggle-"

Little Flower came over. Peeking her head out, eager for attention and a pat.

Old Six, the old sea turtle in the small pond, stirred as if watching a good show; the gossip-loving turtle.

After much effort, Shi Xia managed to calm all the animals in the house, and they were finally allowed to come inside.

As soon as he pushed open the door, Grandpa Shi, who was holding a stick, stopped him.

"Grandpa, it's me!"

Upon hearing the sound, Grandpa Shi immediately put down his stick, and the next second his eyes fell on Shi Xia's shoes, and he also sniffed them.

The smell of raw meat.

"Okay, okay, I'm going to take a shower, alright?"

Shi Xia turned around sadly. She was a big shot outside, but her status at home was so low!
Shi Xia, being of low status, obediently went to take a bath, and Grandpa Shi brought her hot water.

After washing up, Shi Xia finally returned to bed, lay on the soft cotton quilt, and fell asleep in less than five seconds.

The next morning, there were still ten days until the Lunar New Year.

Uncle Cao gathered all the villagers early in the morning to distribute New Year's goods and money.

The villagers were dumbfounded as they stared at the chickens on the stage!
I rubbed my eyes, convinced I was seeing things. How could there be so many chickens?
And those large slabs of pork, with their white fat and bright red meat, it's as if you can see bowl after bowl of Dongpo pork greeting you.

"Alright, enough with the chit-chat. All the New Year's goods from our three islands this year are here. I think everyone knows who to thank."

"What can be said and what cannot be said are all engraved in everyone's heart. There are good days, and you all know what bad days are like. You can choose which kind of life to live."

Uncle Cao gave the islanders another dressing down, and then proceeded to distribute money, meat, and New Year's goods.

"Eight yuan per person, eight yuan!"

"Three chickens for each person, now we can eat our fill of meat."

"I'll have to think about it again before my son gets married next year. I'll only marry someone who keeps quiet."

"You're absolutely right. We should take a good look, lest we ruin the feng shui of our three islands."

Their eyes met, and everyone knew that this was Shi Xia's doing.

The lively scene of distributing New Year's goods was so infectious that everyone's mouths were open and never closed.

This time, the educated youth also received some, but each person received half a chicken and a total of three catties of pork.

Someone tried to argue that it was unfair, but Cheng Qingmin silenced them with a single look.

Cheng Qingmin had established his authority at the educated youth settlement and managed them well, so Uncle Cao was very satisfied and gave him an extra handful of candy.

In the morning, the New Year's goods were distributed, and in the afternoon, the whole village was filled with the aroma of meat.

Since noon, there has been a constant stream of people outside Shi Xia's house.

This family gives us rice cakes, that family gives us cured pork ribs, my family gives us a piece of clothing, and his family gives us a backpack.

In short, those with skills give their skills, and those without skills give sincerity.

Shi Xia's family doesn't need to prepare any New Year's goods at all; the things sent over are enough to last them for quite a while.

In the afternoon, Xia took the remaining hundred or so chickens by boat to Haiming Island.

The familiar office.

Chief Wei said sternly, "Comrade Shi Xia, we have discipline and cannot accept even a needle or thread from the common people. Please take it back."

Shi Xia blinked.

"Did you misunderstand?"

"What's the misunderstanding?"

Chief Wei looked up, and Shi Xia took out a form from her pocket.

"We have too many chickens raised on Haisan Island to eat, so we're planning to sell them to the village to get some money. Would you like to buy them?"

"If you don't buy it, I'm going to land."

Chief Wei's eyelids twitched violently.

You didn't tell me earlier!
