Chu Xia recognized the package as belonging to Shi Yue at a glance, based on the elegant handwriting on it.

After all, they had exchanged quite a few notes before.

But when she saw that the package slip did not have Shiyue's address or name written on it, she knew that they probably didn't want the team members to know where she was.

So I said, "This package was sent by my sister. It has all three of our names on it, so it must contain other things that her family asked me to send as well, right? We're all from the same place, so that's normal."

Jiang Dong and Ye Puan nodded repeatedly.

The three of them took the package and didn't linger. After thanking the captain and the postman, they ran off as fast as they could.

Seeing that he had nothing more to do, the postman said goodbye and left.

Sun Yongfu remained seated.

He stuffed a handful of dried leaves into his pipe, lit it, and started puffing away.

He felt that the package was sent by Shiyue, although he had no proof.

Sun Yongfu wasn't jealous of the things Shiyue sent; he was old enough not to care about such things.

He was just disappointed.

It's a pity that the two production projects that the team was so enthusiastic about have now completely disappeared.

Last week, after they delivered the batch of gift boxes to the provincial capital's food factory, the factory made it clear that they would not place any further orders.

The few people who had taken the materials and were ready to help make cloth shoes lost their jobs before they even received their first payment.

Shi Yue was kind enough to leave without even taking back the materials used for making shoes; he'll probably have to pay a lot of money back.

Those households that received the materials, although they didn't receive work points as compensation, were all very happy to have gotten a pair of shoe-making materials for free.

Only Sun Yongfu understood that the team had lost another long-term, profitable business.

Sun Yongfu glanced out the window and took another forceful puff of his pipe.

Then he felt that the leaves of the tree he burned today were very bitter, and he would have to change to a different kind of leaves next time.

In early summer, they carried their packages and went straight back to Shiyue's courtyard.

At this time, Chu Xia and Sun Xiaohong lived in the courtyard.

However, Sun Xiaohong was out at work and wasn't home at the moment.

In early summer, I took the package to the kitchen and cut open the outer wrapping with a knife. Immediately, a strong, salty, and fishy smell wafted out!

The fumes made her stagger.

"We've arrived at the seaside!" Jiang Dong said, leaning closer to look.

His eyes sparkled with excitement.

Chu Xia glanced at him and said, "Isn't that obvious? They must have arrived! They've been walking for almost a month; they should have reached them by now, no matter how far it is."

Ye Pu'an also moved closer to the table, then flipped through the smaller portions inside, and said with a smile, "Shiyue is still more on your side. Look, this portion for you alone is more than the portion for both of us."

As he spoke, he rummaged through the bottom and pointed to one of the portions, saying, "Oh, there's one for Sun Xiaohong too."

Upon seeing Sun Xiaohong's name, the three of them fell silent for a moment.

Then Chu Xia smiled and said, "It's perfectly normal to have Xiao Hong. Shi Yue and Xiao Hong had a good relationship before, so she'll definitely miss her after she leaves."

Ye Puan and Jiang Dong did not respond.

Regardless of Shiyue's attitude towards Sun Xiaohong, the two of them were furious about the captain's inaction at the time.

Not only did you fail to do anything, but you also locked people up!

Just thinking about how they were inexplicably locked in an empty house, and then finally got out, only to find their brother and his family beaten up like that...

Whenever they think about it, their disgust for Captain Sun deepens even more!

As a result, they now also dislike Sun Xiaohong.

However, people under someone's roof have no choice but to bow their heads, so they don't show it.

But the resentment in my heart will not diminish with the passage of time!

Although Chu Xia also had some opinions about the Sun family, her uncle had a special talk with her before he left.

Her uncle told her that since she was staying there, she should live a good life.

Shiyue helped her build a good foundation and made her well-liked within the team.

They told her not to waste this feeling, and that as long as she stayed put and didn't cause trouble, the team wouldn't deliberately bully her, even if they remembered how good Shiyue had been to her.

Moreover, if her parents want to process her return to the city in the future, they will have to get through the team's approval, so she must not do anything foolish.

Chu Xia remembered these words well.

So when she saw the things given to Sun Xiaohong, she felt that her family was continuing to pave the way for her and wanted to make her life easier.

I was deeply moved.

The things Shiyue brought them were all food.

Apart from some seaweed and kelp, everything else was meat!

Dried shrimp, dried shrimp, clam meat, dried mackerel, and salted dried fish cut into chunks (I don't know what kind of fish it was). In addition, one person also sent them a military-grade canned meat!

Looking at the table piled high with meat and vegetables, the group almost wanted to shout out loud; nothing could express their joy at that moment!

This much meat is enough for them to eat for a year!

Looking at the little notes with recipes written on them that Shiyue had thoughtfully included in everything, Ye Puan said to Chuxia, "Let's eat together from now on, shall we?"

Otherwise, if we took these things to the educated youth settlement and didn't share them with others, we would definitely incur their jealousy; but if we did share them, we really couldn't bear to part with them.

“Okay!” Chu Xia nodded emphatically.

After finishing work, Chu Xia gave Sun Xiaohong the package.

Sun Xiaohong's package was rather small, and when it was opened, there wasn't much food inside.

Aside from some kelp and seaweed, there was only one packet of dried shrimp; there was no dried fish or dried shrimp at all.
