She sorted through today's spoils: shiitake mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms, red dates, and dried lilies, planning to mail them all home tomorrow morning.

Thinking of how good her parents had been to her, Su Tian felt a warmth in her heart; she was a person with a family now.

In this kind of weather, you have to boil mung bean soup. Wash the pot, put in the beans, simmer for two hours, add sugar, and it's ready to eat.

"Chunling, are you there?"

"Yes, Su Tian, ​​what's up?"

"I made some mung bean soup. Bring me a bowl, and I'll give you some."

"That's not a good idea. You should eat this good stuff yourself."

"We're good friends, bring me a bowl."

"I'll give you a piece of osmanthus cake, and I'll get the bowl right away."

"Okay, thanks, Chunling."

You're welcome, you're welcome.

"Chunling, sit here."

The two ate osmanthus cake and drank mung bean soup. It tasted wonderful, and it was another happy day.

Feeling sleepy after a full meal, Su Tian is going to take another nap.

Su Tian quickly fell asleep and had a sweet dream. In her dream, she saw her parents, who were very happy to receive the local specialties she had sent back. Su Tian smiled too, a happy smile.

Suddenly, a knock on the door startled Su Tian awake from her dream. She rubbed her eyes, sat up, and saw He Hua standing outside the door.

"Su Tian, ​​I heard you made some mung bean soup. Do you have any left? I'll trade you a steamed bun for it; I just bought it from town."

Su Tian was very impatient when she heard this, and wanted to hit someone, because they woke her up just for a bowl of sweet soup.

If she didn't want to see this bitch suffer, she would have killed her long ago.

"No, no, I've finished eating. Even if I did, I wouldn't trade with you. You think you can trade a steamed bun for my sweet soup? Dream on." With that, she closed the door.

He Hua glared at the tightly closed door, seething with hatred. What's so great about it? It's just a bowl of sweet soup. You wouldn't even trade it for a steamed bun. It's not like you're expecting me to give it away for free. Fine, you'll eat me to death, humph…

Unable to fall back asleep after being woken up, Su Tian sat on the bed and looked at her high school math book.

"Su Tian, ​​we're leaving for town at seven tomorrow morning, so you need to get up at six. Don't forget," Ma Chunling said as she walked towards Su Tian's door.

"Okay, I won't forget."

What book are you reading?

"As for high school math, I graduated from high school and I'm afraid I'll forget it after a while, so I just review it whenever I have time."

"That's a good habit of yours. I'll have to read it when I have time."

Ma Chunling's family is from Yunnan Province. Her parents are both factory workers. She has an older brother who works, so she is the only one who can go to the countryside.

Although she was sent to the countryside, her family still sent her money and tickets from time to time, and her life at the educated youth settlement was better than that of ordinary people.

Su Tian glanced at her watch; it was four in the afternoon.

She suddenly remembered the private plot behind the educated youth settlement. Should she plant some vegetables to eat?

Without hesitation, she walked over to the male educated youth and asked Zhou Dajun, saying that any vacant land could be cultivated.

She realized that scallions, winter melons, pumpkins, tomatoes, and green beans were easier to grow this season, so she immediately went back to her room and took out the seeds from her storage space.

Take a wooden bucket, fill it with water, and carry it to the field. There was already a ditch. Su Tian sowed the seeds, watered them, and waited for them to sprout.
