The vegetable patch in the yard is growing exceptionally well, a large patch of lush green. Spinach and bok choy are edible, and the eggplants and peppers have grown to more than a foot tall.

Green beans, cucumbers and loofahs climbed up the support made of bamboo poles by He Chunsheng, and the tender green leaves on the vines stretched out.

He Ruixue used a kitchen knife to cut some leeks, and made some leek scrambled eggs on the stove. She also took out the steamed buns and pickles she had packed from the cafeteria and had a simple meal.

After eating, she walked around the yard for a few laps to digest the food, then returned to the bedroom. The bed in the middle was very large, with thick bedding and a faint woody scent.

After get off work, she didn't want to do anything, so she liked to lie there and stare blankly upwards. The ceiling was covered with wood and plastic sheeting to prevent dust and mosquitoes from falling.

Of course, the large piece of plastic sheet is expensive, and she spent a lot of effort to buy it. Currently, it is only used in the bedroom.

…

Fang Wanggui returned home, put down his medicine box and was about to go out. He happened to run into Fang Zhenzhen who was coming back from get off work at the door.

During this period, Fang Zhenzhen had just joined the factory and was busy with training. Not only did she have to learn from her master, but she also had to do a lot of odd jobs. Because she was too busy, she lived in the printing factory dormitory and only went home once or twice a week.

So he was still a little surprised to see his sister.

"Are you back?"

"Well, brother, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things."

"Okay, brother, I have good news for you. My master praised me for my quick learning. I will be able to officially start my apprenticeship next month."

"Congratulations."

Looking at the girl's straight waist and the joy and confidence on her rosy and healthy face, Fang Wanggui was very pleased and even more grateful for his decision at that time.

The changes that their family underwent after coming to the city were simply complete, and all of this was inseparable from He Ruixue.

So no matter what she wants to do, whether it is right or wrong, he will follow her firmly and will not turn back even if he hits a wall.

Patting his sister's head, Fang Wanggui said softly, "Go back quickly. Mom is cooking. Go and tell her that if I come back late, don't wait for me. You can eat first."

"Got it, brother, are Fang Xiaoyong and that guy still behaving well?"

Fang Zhenzhen has never enjoyed any fatherly love and has never called Fang Guoxiang "Dad". She wishes he would die soon.

"It's all right."

Fang Xiaoyong accepted the reality and realized that she was the only complete outsider in this family. If she didn't work, she would have no food to eat. She could help his mother and sister-in-law share some housework.

Fang Yongfu's "child" is about to be born, and he has also taken on the responsibility of being a father. He is now learning a craft from a carpenter.

Fang Guoxiang still looks half dead. He has been busy compiling his techniques into a manual recently. Regardless of whether it can be sold or not, it can at least bring some income to the family.

Fang Zhenzhen also understood that it was unrealistic to drive all these people out. It would only make people think that they were cold-hearted and cruel to their relatives. It would be better to live like this. After all, it would be a hundred times better than her life in the village.

"By the way, brother, I heard that grandpa wants to come and live here. What do you think?"

"Don't worry, he won't come."

Fang Wanggui had already taken all the money from the family, and then told the villagers that his grandfather was a little confused and couldn't remember things clearly, so don't lend him money casually.

It would be no big deal if he forgot to pay back the money, but it would be difficult to explain if the money was lost.

I have no money and my grandfather is in poor health, so even if I make a thousand plans, I can't go to the city.

"That's good."

Fang Zhenzhen was relieved. His grandfather was not good to them and their mother. Just helping to conceal the fact that Fang Guoxiang remarried was enough for her to bear a grudge against him for the rest of her life. That was why she didn't want to see him live out his retirement in the city.

After leaving the house, Fang Wanggui first went to the supply and marketing cooperative, then took a small path to He Ruixue's house and told her the news.

"Has Sun Laiyi been to the library in recent days?"

What? Does this person want to find a translation job, or does he want to make some friends there?

In the original text, the heroine did not have much advantage in foreign languages. Moreover, she was probably old when she was reborn, and all the things she learned were lost. Even if she could pick them up and teach herself again, could she bear the hardship?

He Ruixue felt that the second guess was more likely, and then she heard Fang Wanggui say, "I saw her wandering around your house a few days ago, and at noon today I saw her carrying a ladder from the utility room out. I followed her quietly all the way and found that she was climbing over your wall.

I waited for about ten minutes, and she ran out with a pale face, even forgetting the ladder. I guess she was scared.

When I left the house just now, I took another look at the utility room and saw the ladder was there again. I guess she came back to move it, but I don’t know if she climbed over the wall a second time.”

He Ruixue's expression became serious. "Where did she come from?"

The two men came to the courtyard wall, and Fang Wanggui pointed out the location to him. They saw messy footprints on the ground, circling under the tree. The power of the maze was still strong. Sun Laiyi was probably trapped in a maze.

That's not right. The power of this thing has been reduced. With the heroine's luck, she shouldn't be defeated by such a little trick.

He Ruixue suddenly thought of the person who set up the formation, Jiang Yanxu's mysterious master. Could it be that his Taoism was too profound?

Her mind raced as she took Fang Wanggui around the wall. She didn't find any second footprints and was certain that Sun Laiyi didn't have the courage to try again. She suppressed her doubts and told him to keep a close eye on her and not to miss any of her moves.

Fang Wanggui agreed without hesitation and asked her if she needed to ask for leave from the textile factory's infirmary so that he could monitor Sun Laiyi around the clock.

"No, she's wary of you, and your constant attention will easily arouse her attention. It's fine for now."
