It was already half past five when Lu Wensheng came down the mountain. Many team members she met on the way looked at her strangely, and some uncouth people even pointed fingers at her in the dark.
This is? It's spread?
The corners of her lips curled slightly, and she looked satisfied. It seemed that the old educated youth had good execution ability!
Lu Wensheng was in a very good mood and walked towards the educated youth camp with her backpack on her back. However, she had very good hearing. There were still many people behind her whispering bad things about her.
"Hey, did you hear that she sleepwalks when she's asleep?"
"Is it her?"
"Yes! That's right, it's her! I ran into her yesterday."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a pretty girl, what a shame."
"Oh, who wouldn't say that? I heard from Li Zhiqing that this is a mental illness!"
"real?"
“It can’t be fake!”
"Oh, stop talking! The educated youth are here."
The last big sister winked at the group of women who were still gossiping about Lu Wensheng, signaling everyone to look at the three people behind her.
At this time, several people also noticed the educated youth not far away and quickly shut their mouths. They came from the same group, and maybe someone with good connections would come to vent Lu Zhiqing's anger.
In fact, Shen Lingling and the other two heard their discussion, but they were unable to refute it, so they could only glare at them fiercely.
The aunts knew they were in the wrong and greeted each other awkwardly:
"Oh, are we going to the commune?"
"Of course, they bought a lot of big and small bags!"
"That's right, people from the city are rich, unlike us."
Shen Lingling and Han Muchen were furious and didn't want to pay attention to them. They walked back without looking around.
Only Ma Yingjie spat indignantly:
"Bah, a bunch of gossips!"
Just as the women were about to retort, they heard the majestic voice of Village Chief Li:
"What are you all standing here for? You don't have to work!"
Just because they were not afraid of the educated youth did not mean they were not afraid of Village Chief Li, so they all turned around and dispersed in embarrassment.
Seeing this, Lu Hao also pretended to grin at Village Chief Li and said, "Thank you, Uncle Li."
He knew that if Village Chief Li didn't come, there would be a quarrel. Although he was not afraid of this, it would indeed cause unnecessary trouble for Sister Lu, so he was still very grateful to the old village chief for his help.
Village chief Li took two puffs of his pipe and waved his hand to signal them to go back.
"Let's go." Han Muchen freed up a hand to pull him.
"Yeah." Ma Yingjie followed him.
At this time, Lu Wensheng was walking to Li Erzhu's house. He knocked on the open door and called inside:
"Is Aunt Li home?"
"Hey~ Who is it?"
Before Lu Wensheng could reply, a small cannonball rushed out:
"Sister Lu!"
When Lu Wensheng saw that it was Gou Wa, he narrowed his eyes in a smile. He took out a few mushrooms from his backpack and put them in his hand, praising him:
"The puppy is so good!"
Gou Wa took the mushroom fruit and said sweetly, "Thank you, Sister Lu!"
Then he rushed into the kitchen like a cannonball, shouting as he ran:
"Mother...Mother! The little lantern, the little lantern that Sister Lu gave me."
At this time, Aunt Li also came out. She had just been making clothes in the house, so she came out a little later. Seeing Lu Wensheng looking exhausted, she asked:
"It's Xiaolu, you went up to Daqing Mountain? You kid, the mountain is not safe!"
She also saw the lantern fruit in Gou Wa's hand, and knew that this thing was only found in Daqing Mountain.
Lu Wensheng knew that Aunt Li was concerned about her and didn't get angry. She replied, "Aunt Li, I'm fine. This is for you."
As he said this, he handed her a pound of mushroom fruits wrapped in large leaves.
Aunt Li took it subconsciously, and after opening it, she found that it was also a lantern fruit, and said happily:
"Little deer, you are so lucky to have found a lantern fruit! It is not cheap in the black market, take it back and eat it yourself." He reached out to hand the thing in his hand back.
How could Lu Wensheng take back what he had given away? He refused:
"Aunt, this is your fault. I'm not giving the food to you. I'm giving it to the puppy. He calls me sister, so can't I give him a little gift?
Besides, why are you being so polite to me? This isn't the first time we've dealt with each other. I'm counting on you to give me some advice in the village!
Or is it that Auntie is unwilling to take care of me? "
Lu Wensheng felt aggrieved...
Aunt Li was comforted by these words and had to withdraw her hand and said:
"That's impossible. Even if you don't give them the lantern fruit, I can't let them bully you."
Lu Wensheng smiled and said, "That's it. I'll go back to cook. Aunt Li, you should go home soon too."
"Oh, okay."
"Goodbye, Aunt Li." After saying that, he left without looking back.
The fact that Aunt Li charged a low price for the vegetables was enough to show that their family was honest. Besides, they were related to the village chief, so she concluded that she could make friends with this family.
Lu Wensheng will have to live here for several more years, so it will not be a disadvantage for him to establish good relationships with the villagers.
"Shengsheng!"
"Sister Lu~"
Lu Wensheng was thinking about something when she was stopped by two voices behind her. She knew who they were without turning around.
After waiting for a while and seeing the three people catch up, he asked:
"But what happened? Why did you come back so late?"
At this point, Ma Yingjie looked complaining: "Don't mention it. The bus broke down halfway and we walked all the way back. I was so tired!"
Seeing that he was also carrying a large backpack filled to the brim, Lu Wensheng was puzzled:
"What did you buy? So much!"
Ma Yingjie touched his nose and said with a guilty conscience: "It's... nothing, just some rice."
