The Ripple of Time in the 50s

After being ambushed and forced to self-destruct, Liu Shile opened her eyes to find herself back in the legendary impoverished era from over a hundred years ago.

Looking at her farm, which ha...

Chapter 110 Secretly Rejoicing

This is Chapter 107. The chapter title was misplaced. Sorry.

"What's so amazing about this? It's just that their mechanical skills are impressive. Alright, Second Brother, this place will be our secret base from now on. Unless there are special circumstances, we can't let anyone know about it."

Liu Shile was a little worried that this guy would run off to share his excitement with his best friend. If that happened, she would be really upset.

Although this place does not belong to her, but to the G family, she may only be able to use it temporarily and secretly for decades to come.

However, if she can keep it a secret, she can find a way to buy the mountain decades later, right?

Well, she might be thinking a bit too far ahead, but this place is the best cover for her farm, and she doesn't want anyone else to know about it.

"Huh?" Liu Shile's words were like a bucket of cold water, dousing Liu Shihua's heart and instantly cooling her fiery heart.

After a long pause, he nodded repeatedly, "This place is too magical. We'd better not let anyone else know. Don't worry, Lele, I won't tell Guangjie."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to be muttering to himself, or as if he were making a promise to Liu Shile, saying, "I will definitely not say it, I will definitely not say it, I will definitely not say it."

He successfully made Liu Shile laugh. Seeing that it was getting late, they should take the fruit and head down the mountain. They couldn't let Wang Xiaodong park the car there and wait for them, could they?

So she reminded her second brother not to be late, and the two of them left the way they came. Liu Shihua was especially worried and covered the entrance of the hole with vines so that no one could tell that there was a hole there.

Seeing this, Liu Shile was happy to see him like this, so she also helped out, thinking that some other plants could be planted here in the future, and also, they needed to find another passage.

Having to bend over every time she went in was really annoying to her.

She decided that if she couldn't find another way in, she would have to expand the entrance herself, so that she could walk in with her back straight.

Liu Shihua was unaware of his sister's thoughts. He was very excited at the moment, and he worked even harder. Before long, he had filled the two baskets he had brought with fruit.

"Lele, come on, let's go down the mountain. We can't keep Brother Wang waiting for us." He said, then glanced at his basket and felt it would be a waste to go back like this, so he wanted to put another bundle of firewood on it.

He was about to make a move when his younger sister stopped him.

Liu Shile glared at him, annoyed. "Second brother, you're at the age where you're growing. Why are you carrying such heavy things? Aren't you afraid of harming your health? Do you think it's easy to rebuild your body?"

Uh, Liu Shihua scratched her head, "I also feel that going back like this would be a waste... Okay, okay, I won't carry it anymore, alright?"

As he was speaking, he noticed his younger sister glaring at him, so he quickly surrendered, but his heart felt warm because he knew his sister meant well.

On her way home, Liu Shile didn't rest either. She started asking her second brother for help with some problems she had encountered while reading yesterday. Her second brother was a good student and could definitely be her teacher.

She asked him questions about the knowledge in the textbook, which made Liu Shihua very happy. However, at the same time, he also felt a sense of crisis and decided that he must study hard.

Otherwise, if his sister asks him some questions one day and he can't answer them, he'll be in an embarrassing situation.

The two didn't go straight home after descending the mountain. Since they had brought the pickled vegetables with them when they left, there was no need to go home specifically.

Therefore, the two waited for Wang Xiaodong at the place where they had gotten off the bus earlier. Fortunately, they hadn't been coming down the mountain too early, and they heard a noise after a short while.

Before long, a car came to a smooth stop in front of them, and Wang Xiaodong greeted them with a hearty smile.

"Brother Wang, these are fruits picked from the mountains and some homemade pickles. This portion is for you, and we'll have to trouble you to deliver this portion to Uncle Xu for us."

Liu Shile did not intervene in such matters, leaving them to her second brother to handle. Of course, she had provided some guidance beforehand.

When Wang Xiaodong heard that they had prepared something for him, he was happy, but he shook his head and said, "I don't need it. It's just something I did on the side. Don't be so polite."

As he spoke, he picked up only the portion meant for Xu Sen, turned around, and put it in the car. Liu Shihua, however, was not angry and immediately put the other portion in the car as well.

Then he smiled and said, "Brother Wang, if you don't accept it, we won't dare to trouble you in the future. Oh, by the way, this wild fruit can't be eaten yet. We need to leave it at home for about ten days before peeling and eating it."

Although it's a bit soft, it still tastes pretty good. I hope you like it. Please also tell Uncle Xu about this.

To be honest, Wang Xiaodong really didn't know how to eat this fruit that didn't look very appealing, so he nodded subconsciously when he heard him say that.

His smile became more genuine, and he said, "Okay, then thank you. I usually pass through this area every week, so if you need anything in the future, you can come find me around this time."

Liu Shihua smiled and nodded, thinking that she probably wouldn't need to trouble him much in the future, except perhaps to send some things to Uncle Xu during holidays.

He had no idea about his sister's plans, nor did he know that she had some idea about the future direction of this era. So this was a deliberate effort to build connections, a way of preparing for the future.

Before they could exchange more than a few words, Wang Xiaodong drove off. Liu Shihua and her brother then arrived at the foot of the mountain, where Wang Guangjie and his sister were already waiting.

Seeing that their backs were empty, Wang Guangying asked curiously, "Hey, why aren't you two carrying baskets? Are you planning to go up the mountain like this?"

Liu Shile had no intention of hiding this from anyone. He had communicated with his second brother beforehand, so his second brother was very knowledgeable about the whole story.

The brother and sister nodded repeatedly, especially Wang Guangjie, who said, "They helped us, so we should thank them. But it's not really appropriate for you two to pick those hairy fruits and give them away."

He was curious about the fruit before and even picked and ate it, but the memory was far from pleasant. So now, he doesn't even glance at them.

Liu Shihua was unsure, since he had never eaten this before; it was all his sister's story.

But remembering that his sister hadn't lied, he nodded, his expression serious and proud, and said, "Of course it's delicious. We thought it wasn't delicious before because we didn't eat it the right way."

As he spoke, he put his arm around Wang Guangjie's shoulder and began to talk about how to eat kiwifruit, such as how long to keep it after picking it and how to eat it, and so on.

Basically, he told his brother exactly what Liu Shile told him, but the pride in his tone was somewhat inexplicable.
