Chapter 157: Another New Tenant

Chen Yang, Lu Yaoyao, and the girl selling bamboo baskets entered the hot pot restaurant together, and after chatting for a while, he learned that the girl's name was Li Xiaojiao, fifteen years old. However, because children from the countryside have to assume household responsibilities at an early age, she looked slightly older than her real age.

Li Xiaojiao's family lived in the mountainous region of Yongcheng County, which is under the jurisdiction of Dong'an City. The village she came from, Shimen Cave Village, was the only impoverished village in the whole of Dong'an City, with very backward conditions.

Having heard others say that city folks were very fond of rural products, Li Xiaojiao weaved some bamboo baskets, trekked two hours down the mountain, and then took a three-hour bus ride to Dong'an's urban area to sell them, hoping to earn some money to supplement her family's income.
