Chapter 109 Human joys and sorrows are out of sync
"Alright, let's pack our luggage first. We've already done that, so we can only take it one step at a time." With that, Chu Wenyu placed his luggage on the communal bed to the side.
Seeing this, the group could only pack their luggage first.
The women wanted to stay a little further inside. After discussing and packing their luggage, the group went to visit the production team again. If they ran into that lucky mascot again, they had to try their best to make a good impression.
So, regardless of whether this is reliable or not, they have to do as the Romans do.
But I also really regret it.
Sure enough, our ancestors were right. Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Besides, they weren't powerful dragons at all. They rushed in without knowing anything. Looking back now, they were both stupid and foolish.
The production team's attitude towards these people was unlikely to improve anytime soon. Little Peach Blossom didn't care, since no one had directly insulted her and she didn't understand the situation, so she continued to play as usual.
Instead of dealing with the fish they caught on the spot, they each took a few back to be processed.
Of course, this conveniently separated us from the six comrades who were out for a stroll.
Little Peach Blossom happily went home, and after dinner, she returned to town with her parents. As for when she will come back, she won't be coming back for the time being unless something comes up.
Little Peach Blossom slept very soundly that night. The next morning, she excitedly urged her parents to take her to her master, eager to tell him and Brother Li Zhen about her life-saving deeds!
What could Yin Qing and her husband do? Of course, they would listen to their daughter.
After dropping their daughter off at Tieguai Li's place, the couple briefly explained what had happened in Xiaolin Village before riding their bicycles to work.
"Master, am I amazing? I cured him in no time!" Little Peach Blossom blinked her bright eyes, looking at her master expectantly.
Not disappointing his disciple, Tieguai Li immediately gave him a thumbs up: "My disciple is excellent! A great teacher produces a great student, and there's always someone better!"
"No, it's all thanks to my master's teaching."
"But it's also because the apprentice was willing to learn, and even surpassed the master."
"Hehe..." Little Peach Blossom happily twisted her fingers and peeked into the house: "Is Brother Li Zhen not here?"
Tieguai Li's reaction was lukewarm: "Oh, that kid has to do chores today."
"Brother Li Zhen, you've worked so hard."
“What’s so hard for him? He just opens the classroom door. If we’re talking about hard work, you, Little Peach Blossom, are working much harder. Look at you, you’ve gotten so thin from studying every day. No, we’ll go to the supply and marketing cooperative with Master later and buy some food.”
"Have you lost weight?" Little Peach pinched her cheek, but she didn't feel anything; she was still the same as before.
"You've lost weight!" Tieguai Li said with certainty.
"What should we do?" Little Peach Blossom asked in a childish voice, her voice filled with worry.
"It's okay, I'll be back after I've had some rest."
"Yes, I'll listen to Master."
"Let's go now, the sooner we go, the more we can buy."
"I'll do whatever you say, Master." Little Peach Blossom swallowed hard; she wanted to eat hawthorn cake. "Master, Little Peach Blossom wants more hawthorn cake."
"purchase!"
"And there are candies too, Little Peach Blossom promises she won't eat too many!"
"purchase!"
"And there's also mung bean cake."
"purchase!"
"Wow, Master, Little Peach Blossom likes you the most."
"Oh? Is that so? Hehe..." Tieguai Li was so happy that his beard stood on end, and he walked on the road with an imposing manner, not caring at all about his limp.
His limp is incurable; even Xiao Taohua's internal energy cultivation can't save him. It's a chronic, intractable ailment. If Xiao Taohua had possessed such abilities from the beginning, it might have been curable, but too much time has passed, and the bones and nerves inside are almost completely damaged. Unless he finds a miraculous medicine, he'll be like this for the rest of his life.
It would be strange if there were any miraculous medicines in this world.
Moreover, Tieguai Li had gotten used to walking like this over the years, so he himself didn't feel anything.
The master and apprentice swept through the supply and marketing cooperative, and because of Xiao Taohua's presence, they even bought some more defective products from the cooperative. The two were overjoyed, looking like they had gotten a great deal.
Human joys and sorrows cannot be synchronized.
Where there is joy, there is also sadness, pain, and even fear.
Take Lin Fengjuan, for example, right now.
Looking at the yellow-haired man with yellow teeth and thinning hair who appeared in front of her, Lin Fengjuan forced herself not to show any fear: "I don't know who you are. Please move aside. I have to go to work."
"Don't know? Sister Feng, I've been looking for you everywhere! I never expected this." The other person clicked their tongues in amazement as they surrounded Lin Fengjuan.
The two chose a relatively secluded spot with few people around, which was exactly what the blond-haired man had specifically chosen.
“My name is Lin Fengjuan, not Sister Feng. You’ve mistaken me for someone else.”
"Do you want me to tell you about your background? You were sold by your parents to be a child bride when you were eight years old. After you grew up and gave birth to a child, that family sold you again. Later, you took revenge, and that family killed your child. You also killed that family. After you had nowhere else to turn, you contacted the organization."
Lin Fengjuan closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she calmly said, "Come with me."
"That's more like it." The other person laughed, put his hands in his pockets, and followed Lin Fengjuan to a more secluded place.
Lin Fengjuan turned around: "What exactly do you want to do?"
"So this means she's admitting her identity? Tsk tsk tsk, I never expected that the famous Sister Feng would one day become such a proper peasant woman, and even succeed. I've heard that the people in the production team have been treating you quite well. I wonder if they'll still be so nice to you once they know who you really are."
"What exactly do you want?!"
"Don't be like that, I came to have a chat with you, it's been so long."
"Do you think I will believe it?"
"Of course I don't believe it," the blond man shrugged, but he wasn't afraid.
"Just tell me if you're here for money or something else," Lin Fengjuan said calmly.
"Sister Feng, do you think I'm that kind of person? Of course, I wouldn't mind accepting money if you gave me some, after all, we're colleagues. That girl's dowry was three hundred, and she gave you two hundred, so I don't want any more, just give me one hundred and eighty."
"You're robbing me!" That was Lin Fengjuan's first reaction. Her second reaction was that He Yunzhi had offered her two hundred.
I didn't feel betrayed or anything. I've seen so much over the years, I don't care what the other person is like. It's just... kind of funny. See, that's how people are, no matter who it is, over the years.
“How can you call it robbery? I left you twenty. You have a place to live, land to cultivate, work points, and even a legitimate identity. I have nothing. Do you think one hundred and eighty is too much? It's not much, is it?”
"I don't have any money."
"No money? Do you think I'm stupid? I've found out everything. You're Lin Fengjuan now! Lin Fengjuan, what a great name. Tell me, if people knew you weren't Lin Fengjuan, that Lin Fengjuan would be dead long ago. What would happen to you then? Hmm? Sister Feng?"
Lin Fengjuan took a deep breath: "How did you find me here?"
"It was just a coincidence." There's nothing wrong with saying that.
"Did anyone else come along?"
"Isn't one share enough for you? You want to find another one? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Oh, is that so?" Lin Fengjuan squinted her eyes.
