Chapter 34: Going to the County Town to Buy Things



If Pei Yifan knew what these educated youth were thinking, he would definitely answer them in his heart that things that are given for free will not last forever, and no one's things are given for free. Besides, compared to his mother, his hard work is not that much.

Li Miaomiao actually didn't expect Li Yanan's attitude to be so friendly

She had heard a lot from the villagers about this aloof educated youth. This educated youth Li was aloof not only towards the educated youth, but also towards the people in the village.

Li Yanan comes from a good family and has a high level of education, so it is normal for him to be a little arrogant.

But it was Li Yanan's friendly attitude that made Li Miaomiao, who had originally set his sights on other educated youth, change his target.

Who would want something worse when there is something better?

She originally thought that Li Yanan would be impatient to teach the child to read, but now it seems that it is not impossible.

With this thought in mind, Li Miaomiao's attitude towards Li Yanan improved: "Li Zhiqing, thank you. Our Yifan is young and naive. I am sorry for causing you trouble."

"No, Xiaofan is very cute and sensible. I like him very much."

Li Yanan wasn't very good at small talk. After a moment's thought, he said, "He didn't cause me any trouble. Instead, he helped me a lot. He deserved what he got."

"That's because everyone is taking care of him. Otherwise, how could he be so powerful as a child?"

Li Yanan wanted to say that Xiaofan was just so amazing, but after a pause, he didn't say anything in the end.

Although Li Miaomiao has already set her sights on Li Yanan, she also knows that haste is the key to success. She has not prepared anything yet, so there is no need to rush. She will let the little one develop a relationship with Li Zhiqing first.

After talking to other educated youth for a few more words, Li Miaomiao left.

The aunt in the village saw Li Miaomiao getting along well with the educated youth.

"Miao Miao, Auntie has something to say. You should avoid interacting with those educated youth. They may be weak and incompetent, but they are very cunning. Don't let them take advantage of you, a simple-minded person like you."

"Auntie, thank you for your reminder, but I think the educated youth are very nice people and are very good to Xiaofan. I am grateful in my heart, so I want to thank them."

"That's fine, as long as you know what's going on. But you still have to be careful, because people's hearts are hidden."

Li Miaomiao said a few perfunctory words to the "kind-hearted" aunt, then strode back home. She thought to herself that the little guy always ran over there and brought back a lot of delicious food. Who knows who is trying to cheat whom.

To be honest, although the little guy is young, he is very smart.

"Mom, you're back!"

The little boy had returned and was piling firewood by the wall. When he saw Li Miaomiao coming back, he ran over happily and stuffed a piece of biscuit into Li Miaomiao's mouth.

Li Miaomiao, who had been fed by the little guy a lot during this period, opened her mouth

She originally thought that the little guy must like the snacks that he had obtained from the educated youth in various ways. After all, which child doesn't like snacks? Since they were earned through labor, she didn't care and just let the little guy eat them by himself.

But the little girl insisted that she had already eaten, and she would be unhappy if I stuffed the food into her mouth and she refused to eat it.

Since her son was so filial, Li Miaomiao had no choice but to accept it with a smile.

"These cookies are so sweet. Thank you, son. Mom will make you something delicious."

Now that the mall is open, you can purchase items of the corresponding levels. Now that it has been upgraded to level two, there are a few more food items. In addition to rice, flour, and grains, you can buy eggs, pork, and fish. Side dishes also include fruit candies and biscuits.

Although it requires survival points to buy, Li Miaomiao now has nearly 10,000 survival points. The pressure of survival is not so urgent for the time being, and the food can also be improved.

However, she wanted the little guy to be smart and know everything at home. If she took out extra things, the little guy would definitely be suspicious, and she would have to find time to go to the county town and find a way to bring back the things she exchanged in the system mall.

In addition to earning full work points, there is another benefit to reclaiming wasteland. After seven days of reclamation, you can rest for one day without losing work points. This is a benefit that no other job in the village offers.

After all, there are other jobs besides land reclamation that can also earn full work points, but land reclamation is much more tiring than other jobs, especially in their village. Due to the geographical environment, there are many stones in the ground, which makes land reclamation much more difficult than ordinary land reclamation.

This day's rest is for everyone's health. After all, even a donkey pulling a mill needs to rest, let alone humans?

The next step is to increase everyone's enthusiasm. Otherwise, who would be willing to open up new land? Naturally, some benefits that cannot be found in other jobs must be created.

Li Miaomiao calculated that it would be her turn to rest in one day, which was a good opportunity for her to go to the city.

There is a long way to go from the village to the county town. Li Miaomiao plans to ask the village chief to see if there will be any ox carts entering the town that day so that she doesn't have to walk on her own, or borrow a bicycle from the village chief's house.

There is no way to complete the task, but when she can be lazy, Li Miaomiao will never let herself get tired.

Before Li Miaomiao could ask the village chief, Wang Chunhua, the village chief's wife, came over and said, "Miaomiao, the ox carts from the village will be heading into the city tomorrow. I thought since you just separated from your family not long ago, you should have a lot of things to buy at home. Do you want to go to the county town with me tomorrow?"

"Yes, even if Auntie doesn't come, I still want to go and ask. After the family split up, there are many things missing at home that need to be replenished. Then there's rice, flour, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. I have to buy some of them. It's okay for me to live a rough life, but I can't let the children suffer."

Li Miaomiao's words were not entirely for the purpose of gaining favor; half of them came from the heart.

With such a smart, sensible and considerate son, she has been fed by him for a long time, so how could she not have true feelings for him.

"You're a good person. I was originally worried about how you, a woman, would support Guoan if he died? Especially since you two separated, you had to raise the child by yourself. I didn't expect you to be so strong and capable. Xiaofan is a lucky person."

The more Wang Chunhua talked, the more she felt that Li Miaomiao was a good girl. She was a little lazy and greedy at the beginning, but that was because her family had the ability and conditions and were willing to pamper her like that. Now the situation has changed, and this girl can also stand on her own feet.

This time when she went to the city, Li Miaomiao did not bring the little guy with her. After all, she had too many things to smuggle this time, and the little guy was so smart that it was inconvenient to bring him along.

"Mom, don't wander around the city alone. It's best to stay with the village headwoman. The oxcart will be back on time, so remember to catch it, otherwise you'll have to walk back by yourself."

The little guy frowned and reminded again and again, he was really worried.

If his mother hadn't said that the lock at home was broken and asked him to stay at home to look after the house, he would definitely have gone with his mother.

He had been to the city before and still remembered how to get there.
