Chapter 125: Cooperation Achieved
Watching the group walk away, Zhao Xi said earnestly, "Xiao Xiao, people's hearts are unpredictable. You're young, so you need to be careful in everything you do, and consult with others when you encounter problems..."
Su Xiao was a little surprised, but immediately nodded obediently and said gratefully, "Yes, I understand. Thank you for reminding me, Secretary."
"Hehe, good, good." Zhao Xi was very pleased to see that she was listening attentively. "Keep up the good work, I have high hopes for you."
"Yes, I will." Su Xiao smiled and nodded obediently.
After seeing Zhao Xi and the others off, Su Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief. It was finally over. She smiled so much that her face almost froze.
Lowering her head and looking down, she recalled Zhao Xi's words, pondered them in her mind, and then thought about Chen Jing's actions just now, and she felt reassured.
Ah, sure enough, things aren't peaceful in the educated youth compound.
"Sister," Sweetie asked cautiously from the corner, "Are they all gone?"
Su Xiao turned around and waved to her, "They've all left, come over here quickly."
Someone just arrived; no one else from the farm has come out yet.
Sweetie jumped out laughing, "Sister, boohoo..."
"Good girl." Su Xiao secretly peeled a White Rabbit milk candy and stuffed it into her mouth when she wasn't looking.
"It's sweet and smells so good." Sweetie's face turned red, a little embarrassed, but she didn't refuse again.
My mother-in-law said that relationships between people are a matter of fate, and we shouldn't draw too many lines, otherwise we won't make any close friends. But we also shouldn't take advantage of others all the time; it's good to have give and take.
But she had nothing.
My mother-in-law said that it's not about the price of the gift, but the sentiment behind it. If you really can't give anything away, then be more diligent, help with more chores, and spend more time with her.
"Sister, here you go." Sweetie pulled a handful of dark red berries from her pocket.
Su Xiao took it and asked in surprise, "Is this a bayberry?"
"Mmm, wild bayberries, sweet and sour." Sweetie smiled shyly. Her brother had just given them to her, and she had picked out the biggest and reddest one for her sister. Was this considered a way of giving something away for someone else's benefit?
"Thank you, let's eat together." After spending two days together, she had a good understanding of Tian Niu's character. The girl was well-mannered, and if she didn't accept, she would be letting her down.
Su Xiao gave her half of it back.
Sweetie wanted to decline, but Su Xiao stopped her with a single look.
The bayberries are bite-sized and have a delicious sweet and sour taste.
"Sweetie, do you know what fruit trees are on the back mountain?" Su Xiao asked while eating, her mind already wandering back to collecting fruit trees.
"Yes, there are so many: wild peach trees, wild loquats, wild grapes, wild raspberries..." Sweetie said several in a row, making Su Xiao's heart surge with excitement.
"Ah, I've also eaten mulberries. They were all brought back by my older brothers and grandfathers when they went up the mountain to cut pig feed," Sweetie said with a happy smile.
Su Xiao's eyes lit up as she smiled and said, "Sweetie, a friend of mine has been looking for all kinds of fruit tree seedlings. Could you talk to your brother and ask him to dig them up and bring them back to me if he sees any? My friend's purchase price is 50 cents per seedling, and he'll buy as many as he can."
Su Xiao rattled off a whole bunch of things, leaving Tian Niu listening in a daze.
"How about it? Please." Su Xiao blinked her starry eyes and looked at Tian Niu with anticipation.
Sweetie looked at this girl and thought, "Ahhh...she's so cute!"
Without hesitation, he nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll have my brother dig it up. It's free, since it's unclaimed property in the mountains anyway."
“Yes, yes, that’s the price we get from others too, and I don’t have to pay anything. We might as well take it.” Su Xiao hugged Tian Niu tightly. “Tian Niu, I’m counting on you for this.”
