Ling Yunrui did not leave. Instead, he watched him go into the house. He heard the conversation between Accountant Zhao and his wife, and also heard the voice of Zhao Xiaomei, but he never saw Zhao Jiaojiao come out of the room to take a look.

But this time I heard her voice.

"Sister, my second brother hunted two pheasants and a wild rabbit. Mother said she would make chicken soup for you tomorrow." Zhao Lingling was very happy that she could eat meat.

Zhao Jiaojiao frowned, "When did Tudan become so good at hunting?"

It’s not that she doesn’t believe Tudan, she always feels that Tudan must be hiding something. She doesn’t want to get up from the bed and will ask Tudan tomorrow.

"Sister, I blew out the lights."

"good."

After a while, the oil lamp in Zhao Jiaojiao's room was blown out. Ling Yunrui finally withdrew his gaze, turned around and left.

After lying on the kang for a few days, Zhao Jiaojiao felt much better and didn't want to lie in bed anymore. Although it was very comfortable to lie in the warm quilt, she didn't want to continue lying there for a long time.

"Why are you up?"

Wang Meili was busy in the kitchen when she saw her daughter Jiaojiao coming into the kitchen.

"Mom, I heard my little sister say yesterday that Tudan brought back some game?"

Yesterday, Wang Meili saw that it was already dark and her youngest son still had not returned, so she almost went out to look for him.

"I heard from Tudan that he went into the mountains with Comrade Ling."

Comrade Ling?

Villain?

Tudan has such a good relationship with the villain?

Why did she only know it now?

"How many prey did Brother Ling catch?"

Is this villain trying to please the Zhao family?

“It’s more than twice as big as ours.”

More than twice?

That means the Ling family has more than hers.

Are there so many prey in the mountains?

This made Zhao Jiaojiao a little excited. She wanted to go into the mountains and she would definitely not return empty-handed.

"Light a fire."

Zhao Jiaojiao sat in front of the stove, lighting a fire and thinking about how to persuade Tong Niang to go into the mountains.

If you go into the mountains during the Chinese New Year and bring out prey at this time, many people will turn a blind eye.

"Sister, you don't know how amazing Brother Ling was yesterday. He used his slingshot and shot down a pheasant in one go. I was picking up game nearby. I didn't want so much, but Brother Ling insisted on giving it to me, saying we have a big family."

The most important thing is that Brother Ling said that his sister needed some nourishment.

"Is he very strong?" Otherwise, how could he catch wild game with just a slingshot?

"Brother Ling is definitely stronger than me. He does heavy work in the brigade, such as carrying water and manure."

The work points were not full marks, only eight or nine points.

Zhao Jiaojiao knew how much hardship a young man would have to endure if he wanted to live a good life relying on his physical strength while also carrying the burden of his class background. Only someone who had experienced it could understand.

What is a villain?

The villain is someone who defies fate. Unless the hero and heroine defeat the villain together, the villain can basically be considered a capable person.

She even wondered if the villain Ling Yunrui was too cruel?

No one is a bad person from the beginning. They become bad people after experiencing some things.

"Sister, I heard from my younger sister that you want to make ice cream?"

Zhao Jiaojiao started to get busy after dinner.

The sorbet was still very good.

"Sister, if you freeze it like this, it will become ice cream?"

Tudan and Zhao Lingling, brother and sister, stared in disbelief at the frozen object in the snow.

"Yes, you will be able to eat it soon."

As the Chinese New Year approached, almost no members of the brigade went to work.
