Lin Cuilan was unwilling to go to Shanyang City.

This is perfectly reasonable. Lin Cuilan has a child and a husband, and the child is a boy who is at a mischievous age. If there is nothing in Shanyang City that particularly attracts Lin Cuilan, she naturally will not go to Shanyang City.

Lin Cuilan lives a very comfortable life in Makino City. She has a house, a bicycle, a decent income, and an easy job.

She couldn't bring herself to abandon her family and stay in Shanyang City with Guo Fengsheng.

unless...

The person in Shanyang City was Lin Yifeng.

Lin Cuilan couldn't bring herself to say such things. She could only watch Lin Yifeng leave and then devote more of her energy to her work.

...

Lin Yifeng went out alone this time, and when he returned, he brought with him someone that neither Bai Yejin nor Zhou Xuelan recognized.

Wu Pingmu.

Wu Pingmu was an honest and unassuming boy who spoke very little. When Lin Yifeng pointed to Bai Yejin and gave her a brief introduction, Wu Pingmu didn't dare to look up at Bai Yejin.

"This is the old bird's cousin!"

Lin Yifeng gave a brief introduction to Wu Pingmu: "Laoniao is my classmate, and he now works at the No. 1 Coal Mine in Shanyang City."

"Wu Pingmu will be with me for the next couple of days to get a basic understanding of Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream. After the new school starts in a few days, I will send him to Shanyang City to help Guo Fengsheng."

Lin Yifeng paused for a moment, then asked Bai Yejin with a questioning look, "By the way, Xiaojin, how's the construction of the new school going?"

"I didn't stop at the new school; I went straight home."

Lin Yifeng's car was loaded with a lot of supplies, mostly meat.

In the sweltering summer heat, fresh meat couldn't be left out for too long. Lin Yifeng sped along in his van, and once home, he first had Wu Pingmu unload the fresh meat and other supplies from the van, then had Bai Yejin prepare them quickly.

There are no refrigerators in Paishi Village, but there are cellars.

Lin Yifeng's plan is to store the fresh meat in the cellar, so that it can last longer.

But Bai Yejin rejected the suggestion, even though the temperature in the cellar of Paishi Village was relatively low, it was summer now.

Fresh meat will still rot quickly if you put it in.

There are two best ways to handle fresh meat.

One way is to make it into cured meat, and the other way is to make it into cooked meat.

"The new school is basically completed, except for some minor details."

Although Bai Yejin had only not seen Lin Yifeng for a few days, she missed him terribly. If it weren't for Wu Pingmu, an outsider, she would have already rushed into Lin Yifeng's arms.

As for Zhou Xuelan beside him.

The bed warmer is no longer considered an outsider.

"So, does that mean we can officially start school on September 1st?"

A broad smile appeared on Lin Yifeng's face. Wasn't the reason he insisted on returning to Stone Village at the end of August for this moment?

"Yes, the new school is only missing some corners and edges, but these won't affect students' classes anymore."

"The new school in Paishitou Village can open on September 1st!"

Bai Yejin nodded. During the time Lin Yifeng was away, she hadn't been idle either.

"The new school has been built, and some basic equipment for the school has been purchased."

"For example, desks, benches, chalk, textbooks, and so on. The director of the Education Bureau of Shuiyun Town has already helped us prepare these teaching materials."

At this point, Bai Yejin smiled and said, "The director is a very enthusiastic but stingy person. He is very helpful in purchasing teaching equipment for us, but we have to pay for it ourselves."

"You didn't overcharge us, did you?"

Lin Yifeng assumed the worst about the director of the Education Bureau in Shuiyun Town, and Bai Yejin patted Lin Yifeng on the shoulder.

"No, that's not true. Although the director is stingy, he is still a very upright person."

At this point, Bai Yejin paused, then heavily complained, "They're so stingy!"

"kindness?"

"What did the bureau chief do to make you complain about his stinginess like this?"

"He had lunch and asked us to treat him to lunch!"

Bai Yejin found it quite amusing that Wang Xinguo, who was supposed to be a bureau chief in a township, could be so stingy.

They sent people from Shitou Village to Shuiyun Town to buy teaching equipment, but Wang Xinguo was so stingy that he wouldn't even treat them to a meal.

That's fine.

This guy actually came over to freeload while Bai Yejin and the others were eating!

“...”

Lin Yifeng was speechless upon hearing this. He could only smile and then help Bai Yejin prepare the fresh meat.

Lin Yifeng always returned to Paishi Village at night, but this time was different; he returned at around 8 p.m. instead of midnight.

Lin Yifeng and Wu Pingmu helped Bai Yejin with some basic processing of the fresh meat. The four of them worked until after 11 o'clock, finishing the simple processing of the pork, mutton, beef, and chicken that Lin Yifeng had brought back.

After processing the beef and mutton, Lin Yifeng was planning to go and take a look at the new school, but Bai Yejin stopped him.

"Teacher Lin, come here, I want to say a few words to you!"

Bai Yejin beckoned to Lin Yifeng: "Come here, I'll say a few words about Lao San Xiuxiu!"

The third sister, Lin Xiuxiu?

Lin Yifeng quickly walked up to Bai Yejin and put his ear to her lips.

"Brother~~"

Bai Yejin's voice was soft, gentle, and full of endless allure.

"Xiao Lan is living in the school dormitory now..."

? ? ?

!!

Lin Yifeng's eyes widened.

What does it mean that Xiaolan lives in the school dormitory?
