"Let's go home!"

Urea packs are a characteristic of this era and even for the next 10 years or so.

In this day and age, if someone goes on a long trip without carrying several bags of urea, it's not considered a long trip.

Lin Yifeng carried a bag of urea on his shoulder and another bag in his hand. His two henchmen behind him were also carrying his two backpacks.

God knows why he has so much stuff. If it weren't for Bai Yejin and Zhou Xuelan, Lin Yifeng would have had to go through a lot of trouble to get those four urea bags back.

"Teacher Lin, why are you carrying so many books?"

"These are all books for coal mining majors. Professor Lin, are you going to go back to teaching and teach your students some coal-related knowledge?"

Yes, Lin Yifeng's urea bag contained books on coal mining.

As is widely known.

Books and water are the heaviest. The urea bag that Lin Yifeng used to carry the books was particularly heavy. Fortunately, Lin Yifeng carried the urea bag himself. Otherwise, even the energetic Zhou Xuelan would not have been able to carry the urea bag.

Ye Yuqing, on the other hand, could carry the urea bag as easily as if it were a game to her. Lin Yifeng guessed that Ye Yuqing could carry the bag as easily as if it were a game to her.

"I don't teach!"

Lin Yifeng took a breath: "There's nothing I can do. It's the rule in our Lin family that books can't be sold, much less lost."

If I go home without bringing books, my dad will definitely beat me!

The older generation believes that books are extremely precious and should never be sold or lost.

Lin Yifeng brought books home, and his parents certainly wouldn't praise him or say anything bad about him.

But if he only brings things like mattresses and blankets home, he'll definitely get a beating.

Lin Yifeng could even throw away his mattress and blankets, but he had to bring his books home.

"Oh, okay!"

Zhou Xuelan nodded as if she understood, but not quite. Unlike Lin Yifeng's family, her family had burned her books while burning firewood in the winter.

Zhou Xuelan's family favored boys over girls. Her father had long wanted to get her out of school and marry her off as soon as possible.

Fortunately, she has a loving older brother.

If it weren't for her brother, she wouldn't have had the chance to go to vocational school.

Work hard to earn money so my brother can get a wife!

Zhou Xuelan thought to herself.

"Bai Yejin, do you want to go home first?"

Lin Yifeng could ignore Zhou Xuelan's thoughts, but he couldn't ignore Bai Yejin's. While waiting for the bus at the bus stop, he asked Bai Yejin, carrying a bag of urea on his back and another bag in his hand.

Before going home, Lin Yifeng had already asked Bai Yejin once.

Bai Yejin replied that she didn't need it.

Now, Lin Yifeng asked again.

After all, Bai Yejin's original assigned unit wasn't Shitou, but Liangma, in the southern part of Zhongyuan Province.

Lin Yifeng didn't know where Liangma was, but he knew that even if Bai Yejin went to Liangma, she could stay at home for a month or two.

Unlike now, right after graduation, I have to go back to Shitou Village with you.

"Oh dear, didn't we agree on this?"

"I can't go home."

“As soon as I get home, my dad makes sure I stay home for a few more days.”

Bai Yejin quickly waved her hand. She knew her father very well. Unlike Zhou Xuelan, although Bai Yejin was a girl, she had a higher status in the family. At least, her family was not so sexist.

Bai Yejin could even beat up her younger brother at home, and her parents would watch with amusement!

"Alright, let's get ready to go!"

Lin Yifeng waved his hand and led Bai Yejin and Zhou Xuelan to wait for the bus to depart.

Lin Yifeng had four pieces of luggage.

Bai Yejin and Zhou Xuelan each had only one piece of luggage, which contained not books, but daily toiletries.

While waiting for the bus, Lin Yifeng, Bai Yejin, and Zhou Xuelan took the bus to the bus station. It was almost noon, and Lin Yifeng decided to eat something before going home.

The Makino Ward Bus Terminal is not far from the train station.

In this place, if you really don't know what to eat...

Then let's eat Wallace.

It's their own restaurant, and they offer free food and drinks. If nothing unexpected happens, we won't be able to eat at Wallace's very often in the next six months or a year.

Lin Yifeng, along with Bai Yejin and Zhou Xuelan, ate and drank to their hearts' content at Wallace. Before leaving, he also took three set meals from Wallace.

It was said to be prepared for the afternoon.

Makino City is not far from Kyoto, and there are quite a few buses available. The three of them, having eaten and drunk their fill, did not have to wait long before boarding a bus to Kyoto.

The bus swayed and rattled, taking almost an hour to reach Gongcheng. After Lin Yifeng and the three of them got off the bus, they walked to the mosque carrying large and small bags.

Here, you can wait for the bus to Shuiyun Town.

There is only one bus a day from Shuiyun Town to Gongcheng. Lin Yifeng, Bai Yejin, and others waited until after 4 p.m. before they finally caught the only bus of the day.

Get on the bus and pay.

The three of them rode a bus to Shuiyun Town for nearly three hours before finally arriving.

The time it takes to travel from Gongcheng to Shuiyun Town is even longer than the time it takes to travel from Makino City to Sanyo City.

This isn't to say that the journey to Shuiyun Town is long, but rather that the road is in terrible condition and difficult to travel.

The first part of the road from Gongcheng to Shuiyun Town was alright, as it was all paved.

The next section of the road was a dirt road, full of potholes and water, making it very muddy.

The next section is not only difficult to walk on, but it's also a mountain path.

Even drivers who regularly travel this route don't dare to go too fast, moving slowly at around 30 miles per hour the whole way.
