Once the gift boxes were made, Shiyue suggested that the team's mule cart help her deliver them.
It was still the busy farming season, and every animal was of great use; they really couldn't take up time meant for farm work.
Therefore, Sun Yongfu had no choice but to agree to let Li Yousheng, the former cowherd, help Shiyue deliver the gift boxes to the commune's post office.
But we have to leave very early and come back before work starts.
This meant that Shiyue had to stay in the commune by herself until the post office opened, and then she had to walk back to the team by herself.
Shiyue agreed.
This was exactly what Shiyue wanted.
If the team actually sends someone to follow her, she doesn't know what to do.
She made this request precisely because it was the busy farming season and the livestock couldn't stay outside for long.
That way, she could secretly put the gift box into her little house when no one was looking.
In order not to be late for work, Shiyue and Li Yousheng set off together at around 3 a.m.
When we arrived at the commune, it was still pitch black, and there wasn't even a light.
Seeing this situation, even Li Yousheng, who was usually quiet, couldn't help but ask, "Shiyue, how about I leave you at the entrance of the commune compound? There's a light there, at least it'll be a little bright."
Shiyue said, "No need, Uncle Yousheng. Just leave me at the post office."
She patted the bundles of gift boxes next to her with a hint of helplessness and said, "Put them at the entrance of the commune, I won't be able to move them later!"
Li Yousheng glanced at the half-load of goods on the truck and said nothing more.
He drove to the post office, helped Shiyue unload all the gift boxes, and then drove away.
As the sound of the car faded into the distance, Shiyue looked around and found the place completely silent.
The early spring morning was very cold, and it was only a little past five o'clock; most people wouldn't be going out at that time.
Moreover, the post office was located on the only main street in the commune, where no residents lived at all.
Before work hours, this street is completely dark from beginning to end, without a single ray of light.
After confirming that no one would see them, Shiyue put all the gift boxes into her small house.
Then, in the dark, he walked to a corner and slipped into the small house.
The cabin maintains a constant temperature year-round, always warm and bright.
Shiyue set a timer using the clock on the curtain, then spread out the bedding she had specially placed inside and took a comfortable nap.
There's absolutely no need to suffer from the cold outside.
She slept until 6:30.
I ate a bowl of egg noodles that had been prepared in advance, and also a piece of cake that I had bought through a group purchase, which was called a Swiss roll.
The cake had a thick layer of cream inside, and Shiyue thought it was absolutely delicious.
She ate with great satisfaction.
After eating and drinking her fill, Shiyue listened quietly to the sounds outside.
This was Shiyue's first time entering the cabin outdoors, and she was very cautious.
I was afraid that I might not have noticed anything at all, and that someone might have discovered something because of my negligence.
Just then, Shiyue suddenly heard a familiar mechanical voice:
[Ding-dong! Would you like to activate the outdoor monitoring function? This function is a paid service and costs 10 yuan per hour.]
Shiyue felt that she definitely couldn't stay in this little house for another hour, and the price of ten yuan this time was too expensive.
The team made so many gift boxes, but the total cost was only twenty yuan!
However, she was curious about the "outdoor monitoring function" and decided to give it a try.
So she said, "Start it."
Soon, she heard the sound of gold coins falling to the ground, and then the balance in her account above the curtain decreased by ten.
At the same time, the outside scene suddenly appeared on the screen in front of Shiyue.
The scene was pitch black, and for a moment Shiyue didn't even realize that it was showing her current location.
Until she saw the post office sign in the dim light!
Shiyue felt a surge of joy, thinking that the ten yuan was well spent.
Although it is indeed very expensive, it also provides greater assurance for her safety.
That way, she no longer had to worry about running into anyone when she went out of the small house.
Shiyue stayed in the cabin for a while longer, and she even used this time to prepare the group-buying link.
I'll just wait until she wakes up and goes online tomorrow, then I can send these gift boxes to her.
And I will also receive a large sum of money.
It was already 7:20. From the surveillance footage, Shiyue noticed that people were slowly starting to move around on the street again.
She didn't dare stay in the house for too long.
Fortunately, the spot she had chosen was a blind spot, so no one noticed her when she came out.
Shiyue wandered around the area and even went to the butcher shop to stand in line in advance.
Although she didn't have a sex ticket, she wasn't short of money.
When the shop opened, she was the first to rush in and buy a bunch of big bones that didn't require a ticket. She was even lucky enough to buy a pound of lamb bones.
Carrying the bones she had bought, Shiyue happily began to stroll around the area.
She wandered around until almost nine o'clock before returning to the post office, paying the deposit, and then going into the small room where she made the phone call.
By this time, Sister Ningning should have finished her shift and had a little free time.
Sure enough, Shen Ningning answered the phone quickly.
After confirming that it was Shiyue on the other end, Shen Ningning lowered her voice and said urgently, "Shiyue, it's so good that you called! I was just thinking about how to get in touch with you. I was even thinking of sending you a telegram!"
Hearing this, Shiyue became anxious: "Sister Ningning, what happened? Is Uncle alright?"
“My dad is fine, and everything is fine at home, so you don’t need to worry.”
Shen Ningning said, "I'm not looking for you about family matters, it's about Song Wen... you know, He Zhiqing's senior from school, do you remember him?"
“I remember,” Shiyue said.
Of course she remembered Song Wen Ge.
"What happened to Brother Song Wen? Did something happen to him?"
Upon hearing Shi Yue's question, Shen Ningning suddenly fell silent and remained silent for a long time.
"Sister? Sister Ningning?" Shiyue became even more uneasy.
"Shiyue, Song Wen committed suicide." Shen Ningning's voice suddenly choked up.
"He hanged himself at home the night before last."
Shiyue suddenly felt completely numb.
My mind was buzzing, and I could barely hear what Shen Ningning was saying.
Her hands trembled uncontrollably, almost dropping the microphone, and tears streamed down her face.
The scene of Song Wen picking them up at the train station reappeared in her mind.
He warmly hugged He Lixuan and teased him affectionately...
And the things he talked about with her along the way, and his kind and brotherly attitude towards her.
Shiyue felt a sharp pain in her heart, so painful that she could only keep herself calm by gripping the phone stand tightly with her fingers.
Why did Song Wenge commit suicide?
