Chapter 29



Every place has its local specialties.

The local specialty, in addition to the cloud mushroom in Yu Xiangqing's mouth, is a kind of taro that is famous far and wide. It tastes fragrant and delicious, leaving a lingering fragrance in the mouth.

In addition, the glutinous rice here is also good, but the yield is low and not much is planted. Only a little bit is planted and saved for making rice cakes during the Chinese New Year.

Yu Xiangqing and her friends had tasted the taro and cloud mushrooms last night, and they were indeed delicious. However, Yu Xiangqing had no more glutinous rice, as she had eaten the little bit of glutinous rice she was given during the Chinese New Year last year.

Hearing that Yu Xiangan was concerned about the local food, Yu Xiangqing did not doubt it. Food is the primary need of the people. What's so strange about him caring a little and asking a few more questions?

So she explained it in detail.

It was not until he heard his younger sister say that she wanted some vegetable seeds and wanted to exchange some glutinous rice with the villagers here that Yu Xiangqing looked at his sister with admiration, "It seems that your cooking skills have improved for a reason. Look at how much attention you pay to these ingredients now."

Yu Xiangan: “…”

This is a wonderful misunderstanding.

She just thought the ingredients were good and wanted to go back and try them. If possible, she could exchange them with the folks here through her sister. Wouldn't that be normal?

The captain was very polite to them. These two were city people with formal jobs. Although they were not from their side, who knew what would happen in the future.

Looking at this attitude, they are very concerned about the daughter of educated youth who came to their place from the countryside. If anything happens in the future, one more person they know means one more way out, so he doesn't mind showing his kindness.

He didn't dare to say anything more, but within the scope of his duties, taking care of a female educated youth was easy for him.

After seeing the biscuits that Yu Qingshan took out, the captain's smile became even more amiable. He listened to the words of the educated youth's father and said, "There used to be a saying that one should not travel far away while one's parents are still alive. Now it's not so important anymore, but the old saying does make some sense. When a child is still young, he leaves them and goes out to make a living. Parents are always worried. That's why the ancients said that one should not travel far away while one's parents are still alive. They just don't want their parents to worry. Now the times are different. Under the correct leadership of the Chairman, our lives are getting better and better. They are following national policies when they go to the countryside. It's just that I, as a father, can't rest assured. Brother, you should also know that no matter how old the child is, he is still a child in our eyes. We can't completely let go of our worries."

The captain nodded in agreement.

Yu Qingshan: "My other daughter works in a food factory. This is a benefit from her factory. This is our specialty. Captain, please have a taste."

The gift you give him should not be too heavy nor too light. If it is too heavy, you may worry that he will think it is profitable, and if it is too light, you may worry that he will not take it seriously. This is just right.

When the team leader heard him say this, it was difficult for him to refuse. This was a welfare benefit provided by the factory, and it didn't cost any money, right?

He understood what he meant. "Don't worry. I have seen Comrade Yu Xiangqing's performance since she went to the countryside. She is a good comrade who is not afraid of hard work and is motivated. Such people are what we need."

His compliments were sincere. Among the educated youth, this new comrade who had just gone to the countryside performed really well.

At the beginning, her performance was not good enough, but that was understandable. She had never done farm work before. The important thing was that after she got over the initial confusion, she had a positive attitude and asked questions when she didn't understand. Now she has made great progress. Moreover, she has helpers at home and has good things. Previously, a child in the village was sick and lacked medical care and medicine. She donated the pills she had, which was a great help.

If it's too late, the child may not be rescued intact.

In general, there is not much difference between the Niujiao Brigade and the Hongxing Brigade. They are in the same province, with some differences but more similarities.

Similar climate, similar crops.

After a round, they finally came to the Youth League Home. They arrived at noon. The Youth League Home was where most of the people would gather at lunchtime. At other times, everyone was busy working in the fields and no one was there.

Yu Xiangqing came to thank the people in the Youth League Institute for taking care of him, and also to thank Zheng Ke for helping to drive the ox cart to pick them up yesterday, and for taking a leave of absence and being away for half a day.

Zheng Ke was somewhat flattered. "Uncle, you don't have to be so polite. We both left home and came to this strange place. It's fate that we met. I went to the countryside earlier, so I am more familiar with it. I didn't do anything. Comrade Yu Xiangqing also helped me before."

When Mo Wenwen saw them appear, she thought things had taken a turn for the better. The one who had been so harsh in the morning was Yu Xiangqing's sister, and her father would definitely not agree with what she said.

As a result, he thanked others for taking care of his daughter, but when it came to her, he said, "My female comrade, I know that when you came here this morning, there were some things I shouldn't have said, but my daughter and I are too far apart, and I'm afraid she won't be able to save face and feel bad if I don't make some things clear. Before, you used various excuses to borrow tickets from my daughter, and ate and drank for free, but forget it. You were friends at that time, and it's also my fault. I raised her to be a little naive, and she doesn't have much brains. I didn't teach her how to face those people with bad intentions.

So I'm putting this out there. You and my daughter don't get along. If you have any questions, come to me, not my daughter. You two are not suitable to be friends. As a father, I don't want you to be friends."

Mo Wenwen was stunned. Didn't his words mean that she had evil intentions?

Doesn't what he meant by this is that she is scheming?

Didn't he mean to tell her not to look for Yu Xiangqing again?

In front of everyone, Mo Wenwen felt ashamed.

Yu Qingshan continued, "I don't mean to blame you. When you are out there, you need to be more careful so that you can live a better life. My daughter needs to improve in this regard. But I think you two are not suitable to be friends at this stage, so as a father, I can only say these unpleasant words. She won't refuse, so I will do it. Everyone here can be a witness. If you want to blame someone, blame me. I am too strict with my daughter and I also have to control her friendships."

After hearing what he said, she no longer had the nerve to look for Yu Xiangqing again. Her father had told her not to look for her again, fearing that she might be plotted against.

If she comes to my house crying and complaining again, it means she is being plotted against.

Yu Xiangqing was in a good mood.

Great, now she won’t appear in front of me again.

Mo Wenwen didn't have the guts to do anything else but to say sweet words. When Yu Xiangqing left, he still had a happy look on his face. "When I had a fight with her before, she kept crying as if I had bullied her. But it's different now that you, Dad, are here. Can she still cry in front of you? I can relax from now on. When I see her, I'll just pretend I didn't see her."

Then he said a little embarrassedly: "Dad, I'm bothering you again."

Yu Qingshan shook his head. "Some people are just thick-skinned. You should learn from your sister in this regard. You should say what you need to say. If you don't say it, how will others know that you are not wronged and that you have been wronged? Do you think that simply saying that we are not friends will be enough?"

Yu Xiangqing: "..."

She was too naive.

She was a little depressed.

"Why can some people be so shameless?"

Yu Qingshan: "Everyone has their own unique personality. You just haven't met any bad people before, so you think too highly of them."

Being shameless makes people feel disgusted, but the truly bad people will take people’s lives and drink their blood.

Yu Xiangqing: "..."

After lunch they were about to leave. Yu Xiangqing seemed reluctant to let them go and hoped that the lunch could go slower and slower.

"Try to go home for the New Year this year. Don't worry about the travel expenses. Dad can still pay for it."

Yu Xiangqing nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yes, Dad, I understand."

Yu Xiangan, "My second brother said he would try to come back during the Chinese New Year this year. If you come back too, the family can be reunited."

Yu Xiangqing burst into laughter and asked, "Brother, are you taking your sister-in-law back?"

Yu Qingshan, "Yes."

Yu Xiangqing, "Second brother finally got what he wanted."

Speaking of which, the two siblings are quite similar, but only in the beginning. The second brother finally got married, and she and Liang Yong parted ways.

Yu Qingshan said seriously, "Dad doesn't want you to date someone else so soon. The country won't let you stay in the countryside forever. You're still young, and Dad will always find a way at home. If there are any jobs, they will definitely be given to you. Your brother is with your sister-in-law, so don't worry too much. You're a girl, so you need this job more. If you marry someone here, it will be difficult to go back in the future."

Yu Xiangan, "Sister, I will find a way. We really don't need to rush to find a partner. It's not too late to find one when we are 30 years old."

Hearing her words, Yu Qingshan's eyes twitched.

Thirty years old?

Is she serious?

This is too much!

Twenty-five, at most!

Be sure to consider personal issues.

Yu Xiangqing saw Yu Qingshan's expression and laughed, "Thirty years old is too long, won't you be able to get married by then?"

"Of course. And if you force yourself to marry a bad person, it will be too late to regret it. A new marriage is better than a second marriage, and there are children too."

Yu Xiangqing couldn't help laughing. "Alright, alright, I know. I won't consider it in the short term. I still have to write articles. How can I have time to talk about dating?"

She wanted to live a better life than Liang Yong, and she wanted him to regret it.

She doesn't have that much free time to think about other things.

If she returns to the city at that time, his face will definitely look very happy.

Even if Yu Xiangqing didn't want to anymore, the time had come for them to leave.

When I came, I brought a lot of bags, and when I left, I also brought a lot of bags.

These are all specialties that Yu Xiangqing exchanged with others.

Most of them are not worth much, but they look spectacular.

So they had to trouble Zheng Ke to drive a ox cart to take them to the station.

In the car, as she watched Yu Xiangqing's face getting farther and farther away, her smile became brighter and brighter, and the tears on her face became more and more.

In the car, both of them felt a little relaxed. They had done what they could, and how she would live the rest of her life depended on herself.

Yu Qingshan is still very optimistic.

His children are all broad-minded and can overcome difficulties, whether it is Xiaoan or Xiaoqing.

A person’s life is long and he or she will encounter many things, but no matter how many things there are, as long as there is life, everything is possible.

If you don’t know how to judge people, take it slow, and one day, you will open your eyes.

I’m afraid that my eldest daughter will end up like me and have no chance.
