He Wan had no idea about the brigade leader's family.
After returning home, he took out a piece of Dacron fabric, enough to make a pair of trousers, from his room as a gift for Xue Zhenzhen.
"Sister Zhenzhen, this piece of fabric is what I had left over, you can have it."
“Xiao He, I can’t accept this; it’s too precious.”
"Keep it. I don't need it. If you want me to give you something else, I really don't have any. This is all I have."
Su Ranran, who was standing to the side, gave Xue Zhenzhen a handkerchief and said, "Take this, it's mine."
Zhang Cuicao gave Xue Zhenzhen a pair of cloth shoes, which she had made herself. She said, "You're leaving soon, so this is just a small token of our appreciation. If we ever have the chance to go to the city and run into you, please don't say you don't recognize us."
"What are you saying? Don't you know me? I'm the most loyal person. Since you put it that way, I won't stand on ceremony with you. Have lunch at my place today, it's on me."
"Okay, I'll help you out."
"Sister Zhenzhen, is the lease on this house about to expire?"
"Well, I'm not going to ask the team leader for a refund. I told my cheap dad that I was selected by the provincial cultural troupe, and he was quite happy. He mailed me a lot of things and even told me to go back home for the holidays."
That's something, it'll bring him some honor. I really have to go back; how could I not take advantage of such a good opportunity to "show off" to that woman? But it depends on the holiday schedule from the performing arts troupe. Are you going back this year?
Su Ranran smiled and said, "I heard from the brigade leader that there will be no more restrictions on the number of times we can go home to visit our families in the future."
Zhang Cuicao smiled and said, "It's mainly because we educated youth have performed well in the past two years. As long as we don't delay spring planting and autumn harvest, he doesn't have too many demands on us."
He Wan nodded in agreement.
Zhang Cuicao said, "It's a pity that the fare to go back is quite expensive, so I don't plan to go back this year."
Su Ranran said, "I want to go back. My mom told me to go back whenever I have a holiday so she can take me to the hospital to learn more. I can't miss this opportunity."
"Yes, Su Zhiqing, your medical skills are quite good now. Several nearby villages are happy to come here."
"It's not that my medical skills are good, it's that my medicines are good, plus I've memorized so many prescriptions, so I can definitely cure a few people's illnesses."
He Wan said, "I'll get you some medical books another day. Hey, Wang Xiaorong, why are you guys only getting back now?"
While the group was chatting with Xue Zhenzhen, Wang Xiaorong and her friends walked over looking exhausted.
Li Zhengdao said, "Didn't Captain Wang sell some rice this year? Now that it's ripe, the village head asked us to help harvest it."
He Wan smiled and asked, "How much rice did you harvest?"
"We don't know yet. They're all still in their shells. Captain Wang said there aren't many, but they're not bad either."
Li Chunsheng, who was standing nearby, said, "The Party Secretary is quite fond of the rice that Captain Wang is dealing in. He said that if the harvest is good, he will approve a five-mu experimental field for Captain Wang to manage next year."
Su Ranran said, "That's good. I heard that people not far from us also grow rice and have a good harvest."
If we can grow it here, large-scale cultivation in the future might be able to bring down the price of rice.
"Yes, Captain Wang is very happy right now. He grabbed a steamed bun and went to the drying yard, full of energy."
He Wan chuckled. It seems she's moved on from the breakup. Not bad, not bad.
Xue Zhenzhen, who was standing nearby, said, "Why don't you all stop cooking and bring some food over so we can eat together?"
Wang Xiaorong and the others naturally agreed and hurriedly went inside to get enough ingredients for three people. Li Zheng then told them to go to their field to pick vegetables.
Eat as much food as you like.
