The person who came was the aunt from next door. Everyone in the village knew that Li Tingyun and his friends had gone up the mountain during this period. They thought that since she came so late and carried two large baskets on her back, she might have brought some good things.

He Fei and his son could guess exactly what these people in the village were thinking.

Uncle He then instructed his wife to go to the back and pick some vegetables, and make some strong-flavored pickles to suppress the taste of the offal.

When Li Tingyun heard Uncle He say this, he followed his aunt into the inner room.

After a while, she came over with two empty backpacks, which smelled strongly of herbs.

Aunt He carried a basket and went to the backyard to pick vegetables, and Xu Erhua followed her.

Li Tingyun sat next to the stove with Uncle He, and then He Fei opened the door to the yard.

"Hey, what delicious food did the young educated youth bring you? Why do you open the door so late?" The aunt smiled but said something sarcastic.

He Fei didn't indulge her and said, "It's so late, sister-in-law, why don't you rest? Is there something delicious that you're hiding from everyone?"

"You don't know what our family is like yet, but if you have any delicious food, please share it with us." The aunt said shamelessly.

"Okay, we'll share the meat with you, but you don't have to share the cabbage with me. Our family can't afford such a loss-making business." He Fei said very bluntly.

My aunt's face turned pale and blue. She wanted to withdraw but felt embarrassed. The situation was a bit awkward.

He Fei was too lazy to care about anything else and went straight into the house.

The shameless aunt actually followed him in, and when she saw so many big pieces of meat hanging from the beams, she almost drooled.

"Tingyun, were these all sent by you and Erhua?" she said in disbelief.

When Li Tingyun saw her aunt drooling, she knew exactly who this person was.

She chuckled and said, "If I had this ability, why would I still work if I asked for leave every day?"

"Where does this meat come from?" asked the aunt curiously.

hehe……

He Fei couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "That's funny, would you give so much meat to others?"

Uncle He took two puffs of his cigarette, smiled slightly and said, "After the New Year, He Fei and the girl from the next village are getting married. They went to town yesterday and bought some meat. You must come to the banquet!"

"Okay, okay, I will definitely come." said the aunt with a smile.

Everyone could see that the smile was very stiff. After all, one had to pay a contribution to the banquet, and most people in the village wanted to eat meat, so it was not easy to get it.

Not long after they sat down, Xu Erhua and Aunt He came back and opened the backpack next to them.

The aunt stretched her neck to take a look. Both baskets were empty. She was somewhat disappointed.

"Aunt, your family has gotten a lot of pumpkins. Comrade Tingyun has worked very hard to dig herbs for us these days. Since you are here, just show your appreciation." He Fei is really a sharp-tongued person. He doesn't want to let go of these cheap guys if he has the chance.

Auntie really wants to slap herself a few times. If she hadn't been curious, she wouldn't have suffered any harm.

Although the big pumpkin is not valuable, it can be dried and eaten in the spring. This time it is a big loss.

Her husband, who had originally wanted to have a good relationship with He Fei, asked He Fei to ask for two bowls of soup for the child, but this time he had no choice but to give it to him.

"No need, that's enough for us to eat." Xu Erhua still felt a little embarrassed.

"Forget it. With Liuli's appetite, your family's food will probably run out soon. Stock up on some vegetables so you don't go hungry in the winter." He Fei wanted to blackmail his aunt today so that she wouldn't have to starve at their meat every day. It was really unlucky to be a neighbor of such a person.

Seeing that He Fei was determined to cheat others, Li Tingyun also agreed: "That's right!"

When Xu Erhua saw Li Tingyun speak, she said nothing.

So embarrassing!

My aunt's face turned red and she was furious, but she had to put on a smile.

"Okay, I'll get two." She stood up with a stiff smile and was about to go out.

"The big pumpkin in your house is quite heavy. I'll take it for you." He Fei followed actively.

The aunt almost glared at He Fei. She clenched her fists tightly and walked away quickly.

After his aunt left, Li Tingyun couldn't help laughing: "It seems that it's not easy to bully Brother He Fei."

"Our He Fei has a good personality and doesn't like to cause trouble, but if someone provokes him, he will definitely fight back. I don't know who he resembles this personality like, alas..." Uncle He said helplessly.

"If your son doesn't look like you, who does he look like?" Aunt He shut the old man up with just one sentence.

Hahaha……

Li Tingyun and Xu Erhua couldn't help laughing.

After a while, He Fei came back with a smile, holding two large pumpkins weighing about ten pounds in his arms.

Xu Erhua and Li Tingyun found that the pumpkin was really big, and they could get a lot of it by drying it into pumpkin slices.

"Let's go. It's getting late. I'll take you back. This pumpkin is quite heavy." After saying this, He Fei went to get his backpack, but was rejected by Li Tingyun.

"No need, it's not far." Li Tingyun said and stood up.

Uncle He insisted, "No, it's too late. Let him go back with you."

Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Li Tingyun said nothing more and let He Fei send them back.

At the gate of the yard, Gu Xingwu sat at the door, enjoying the breeze, waiting for the two to come back.

He was somewhat worried about the two female comrades going out late at night, so he waited and waited, and finally when He Fei brought them back, he went forward to take their backpacks.

The backpack was very heavy. In addition to the two pumpkins that He Feikeng brought, Aunt He also gave some vegetables.

He Fei walked them to the door and then walked back. He had to go home quickly to check on the offal. It looked like it would get even colder in a couple of days, so he planned to send the offal to his father-in-law right away.

When they got home, they took out the braised offal that Li Tingyun had brought and saw that there was really a lot.

Thinking that the two families would become relatives during the Chinese New Year, Uncle He gave He Fei two thirds of the rice cakes and sent them to him overnight.

He Fei wolfed down his meal, drank two sips of hot water, and left with a kettle.

There are many villages nearby on the way to the town, so the road is not difficult to walk on, otherwise Uncle He would not be at ease with his son going out at this time.

In order to avoid the cold, He Fei started running after leaving the village and ran all the way to Zeng's house.

The son-in-law came over late at night, and the mother-in-law was afraid that he would be hungry, so she quickly got up and made him a midnight snack.

Seeing that they brought so much braised offal, Xiaolan's mother felt a little embarrassed: "You haven't finished the ones we gave you last time, keep some for yourselves!"

"It's okay. This thing doesn't cost much money. It's all braised with the help of Miss Tingyun. She has good skills. Besides, the New Year is coming soon. It was probably the last time two years ago. I don't know when the road will be repaired?" He Fei said a little depressed.

Road construction is a very hard job, and it is not easy to take time off.

"I went to the town today and heard that a policeman in the town committed a crime and was taken away from the city a few days ago." Uncle He, wearing a big cotton-padded jacket, squatted by the fire and gossiped.
