As the sun gradually set, a large area of ​​flat land had been opened up on the wasteland.

Although the villagers were tired and sweating, they all had excited smiles on their faces.

“You did a great job today!”

Chen Changyuan patted the dirt off his hands and said, "We'll continue tomorrow. Everyone will gather in the courtyard of the village committee tonight. I've asked someone to buy pork from the county town, and we'll have a big pot dinner tonight."

In the evening, the courtyard of the Qingshui Village Committee was filled with steam and the aroma of meat.

The villagers sat together, some even brought their own treasured wine from home. Everyone sat together, talking and laughing.

After a while, the meal was ready. When Chen Changyuan added meat for the villagers, he also did not forget to add a few more pieces for the elderly.

"Long-term, that's great!"

Old Yuantou narrowed his eyes and smiled, "There's so much meat here, it's like Chinese New Year!"

"It's my duty, old man, you're welcome!"

Chen Changyuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, everyone."

Fang Suxia looked at her son and felt very relieved.

My son has changed, becoming capable and considerate.

"Suxia, you eat too!"

The old man greeted, "Your son is really promising now!"

Fang Suxia wiped her eyes and said, "This child has grown up."

Zhou Changhe and Wang Cuifen sat in the corner holding the bowl of mostly vegetarian dishes, both with grim expressions on their faces.

Why do they only have these few pieces of meat, and they are all small pieces.

"Cui Fen, how about..."

Zhou Changhe whispered.

Wang Cuifen glared at Zhou Changhe and thought that asking for meat now was like begging for food, so she refused to go.

"What? He's ignoring us."

Lin Xiaoya stood outside the fence of the village committee yard, watching Chen Changyuan busying around.

She had mixed feelings.

I remember that I had made such an agreement with him to work hard together and live a good life together.

pity……

The banquet was over and moonlight filled the courtyard of the village committee.

Chen Changyuan cleaned up the dishes by himself, piled them up, and planned to take them to the kitchen to wash.

Looking up, I saw a figure standing at the gate of the courtyard.

Lin Xiaoya was wearing a faded blue cloth shirt and looked thin and small in the moonlight.

She paced back and forth restlessly, glancing over here from time to time, as if waiting for someone.

"Heh," Chen Changyuan sneered, but didn't stop working.

He felt that Lin Xiaoya was staring at him and he was too lazy to pay attention to her.

Lin Xiaoya moved into the yard only after the last villager had left.

Her steps were unsteady and she walked slowly.

"long……"

She called out softly.

Chen Changyuan was busy wiping the table, turning a deaf ear to what was happening.

"Well..."

Lin Xiaoya bit her lip and said, "Can you lend me fifty yuan?"

Chen Changyuan paused, looked up and glared at her coldly: "Borrow money?"

Lin Xiaoya lowered her head, her fingers tangled together: "Dazhu... is in the police station..."

"ha!"

Chen Changyuan laughed harshly, "Zhou Dazhu is in jail, and you're looking for me instead of your parents-in-law?"

"They say... money is tight..."

Lin Xiaoya's voice became softer and softer.

"You really know how to pick people."

Chen Changyuan threw down the rag, his eyes full of mockery, "You used to think I was poor, and now you come to me for money?"

Lin Xiaoya blushed: "I...I'm sorry for you..."

"I'm sorry?"

Chen Changyuan interrupted her, "Lin Xiaoya, do you remember what you said? You said I had no future, that I would only be hunting in the mountains for the rest of my life. So, how is it? Did Zhou Dazhu give you a good life?"

Lin Xiaoya's eyes were red: "I..."

"You deserve this!"

Chen Changyuan spoke each word with great emphasis, "Retribution has arrived."

Under the moonlight, Lin Xiaoya's face was pale.

She wanted to say something, opened her mouth and swallowed it back.

Chen Changyuan turned around to leave, and Lin Xiaoya quickly pulled his sleeve: "Please help me, Changyuan..."

"let go."

Chen Changyuan shook her off and said, "You should go find your parents-in-law. A useless person like me can't help you."

Lin Xiaoya cried loudly, but didn't dare to say a word.

Chen Changyuan turned around and left. The moonlight lengthened his figure, making him look more energetic!

When he got home, Fang Suxia was still sitting on a small stool waiting for him.

Seeing his son come back, he immediately stood up: "Changyuan! Are you back?"

"Mom, why aren't you sleeping so late?"

Chen Changyuan took off his coat and hung it on the wooden peg.

Fang Suxia sighed: "You've been busy all day, slaughtering pigs and entertaining guests. You must be exhausted, right?"

Handing over a glass of water, "Drink some water."

Chen Changyuan took the cup of water and looked at his mother. Her face was full of wrinkles and her back was hunched. He felt sad.

In her previous life, my mother died of exhaustion!

"Mom, I'm fine!"

He took a sip of water and said, "You are not feeling well, go and rest!"

Fang Suxia waved her hand: "I'm in good health, I can do some work. It's just you who makes me anxious."

She hesitated for a moment, "How about we take it slow regarding the farm?"

"Don't worry, Mom!"

Chen Changyuan held his mother's rough hand and said, "I know what I'm doing. If the farm is built, we'll have a good life. Just wait and enjoy the good life!"

Fang Suxia's eyes turned red: "You are such a filial child!"

"Of course you are my real mother!"

Chen Changyuan smiled and said, "Go to bed! I have to go into the city tomorrow."

Chen Changyuan got up early the next morning.

Just pack up quickly, put your wallet in your pocket and go out.

"Changyuan! Eat breakfast before leaving!"

Fang Suxia shouted while holding the hot porridge.

"No, Mom! Just grab a bite on the way!"

Chen Changyuan put on his shoes and said, "I have to go to the morning market to look after the livestock!"

Before Fang Suxia could say anything, he had already rushed out of the yard.
