Chapter 303: Touching
Chapter 303 is touching enough, right?
"Of course, if Teacher Mei likes to read, then you can tell Xiujuan what book she wants to read. I will try my best to find it and bring it back to her when I return to the city."
Han Changping was unhappy when he heard this. He looked at Teacher Mei and sat down on the stool and said,
"Teacher Mei, haven't I heard what kind of books you like to read? You don't have to ask others for the books you like. Just tell me. As long as you name the book, I can get it for you."
Mei Yingxue looked at Han Changping's arrogant look and just smiled slightly. That smile was the same as when she saw the elementary school students in her class. She just thought Han Changping was joking.
"Okay, I won't get involved in your teacher Mei's affairs. I'll just focus on serving Comrade Xiujuan. Let's eat."
"What to eat? Drink."
Wang Zhilin had been watching a few people chatting with each other, and inexplicably the shadow of Xu Huimin appeared in his mind.
Who knew that by coincidence, there was a knock on the door at this moment. When someone opened the door and walked in, it turned out to be Xu Huimin walking in wearing a scarf.
"Sister Huimin?"
Han Changping saw Xu Huimin and quickly stood up.
"Have you eaten yet? Come, sit down and eat something together?"
"Oh, no, I've already eaten."
When Xu Huimin saw Wang Zhilin was there, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her eyes, but she concealed it soon after.
"Changping, my father hasn't been in good health these days. I took him to see an old Chinese doctor out of town and he took some medicine. He just came back today. I heard that you've started harvesting grain. What do you think I can do?"
"Sister Huimin, please sit down first and talk slowly."
Xu Huimin took off her headscarf and sat on a stool handed to her by Mei Yingxue.
"I heard you took the old man to see a doctor. How was it? Was the medicine effective?"
"Well, my father has been sick all his life because of the hard work he has done. He has to take some Chinese medicine to slowly recuperate. He has been living there for a few days and seems to be getting better day by day.
I'm getting another course of medicine now, and by the time I finish it, it'll be almost Chinese New Year. If the results are good, I'll take a month or two off after the New Year and then I'll take my dad for a follow-up checkup."
"Well, Chinese medicine works slowly, but the effects are more stable. It is still very effective in treating these chronic diseases."
Han Changping also turned around and looked at Xu Huimin and said,
"Well, Sister Huimin, you just came back, so take a few days to rest. There's no rush."
"Changping, this is it."
Xu Huimin looked at Han Changping and then at the people sitting around the table and said,
"I want to go back to Shanhe Town to collect food. What do you think?"
"Okay, that's certainly a good thing."
Han Changping now fully believed that Xu Huimin had this ability, but thinking that harvesting grain was hard work after all, he hurriedly added,
"Sister Huimin, have you found someone to help you collect it?"
Speaking of this, Xu Huimin smiled and said,
"You may not know yet, but Cui Fujian and the others are back."
"You said Jinfeng and the others are back?"
When Han Changping heard this, he stood up from his stool excitedly.
"I saw them when they got off the bus that night. I heard that Jinfeng had undergone surgery and looked quite weak, but Cui Fujian said the doctor told her to just come back and recuperate.
Just go back to the city for a checkup after the New Year, and you should be fine."
"That's great! Why didn't Cui Fujian call me? We agreed that I would pick them up when I came back."
"Maybe I'm afraid of causing you trouble?"
Xu Huimin saw that her presence had delayed Han Changping and the others' meal, so she quickly stood up and said,
"Changping, I told Cui Fujian to follow me to Shanhe to collect grain. He agreed to it."
"You mean Cui Fujian will go with you?"
"Um,"
Suddenly, Han Changping thought of someone in his mind, but some words were not what he should say, so he ignored these useless things in his head and said,
"Okay, okay, I feel much more at ease having Cui Fujian with you. Okay, you guys can discuss it yourselves. When are you going? I'll drive you there."
"I'll tell you when to leave after Cui Fujian has rested well. Um, you guys have dinner. I'll be back first. Oh!"
Xu Huimin, who was about to turn around and leave, stopped and turned around and said,
"Changping, I'll come over tomorrow to help out for a few days, so I can get familiar with the process."
"Okay, if you have any questions, please ask Sister Xiujuan."
"You guys eat, I'll see Sister Huimin off."
Seeing Xu Huimin was about to leave, Lang Xiujuan hurriedly followed her.
"Come on, come on, let's have a couple more drinks today."
Mei Yingxue took the wine barrel and handed it to Han Changping, but couldn't help but say something.
"Jin Feng is well again. We are all happy for her, but you should drink less. You still have a lot of things to do tomorrow."
Hearing the tone of Mei Yingxue lecturing her students, Han Changping was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled with some happiness.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lang Xiujuan and Mei Yingxue just had a little meal after coming back. Seeing that the men were still drinking, they didn't stay for long and went back to their own house.
Until this moment, Wang Zhilin, who had been holding back for so long that he almost exploded, finally took a deep breath, looked at the two boys and asked with a smile,
"You two little brats, tell me, are you both pursuing other girls?"
"Brother-in-law, you have very sharp eyes. You can see at a glance that Brother Sun is pursuing Sister Xiujuan.
Let me tell you, that poem written by Brother Sun is truly amazing. I even memorized a line from it. How about I read it to you?"
"Han Changping..."
When Sun Jingtao saw that Han Changping was about to recite his poem, he jumped up, grabbed Han Changping's arm, and started locking his neck.
"Don't talk about me. I admit that I'm pursuing Lang Xiujuan, but do you dare to admit that you're also pursuing Teacher Mei? Don't think I don't know. That red hairpin Teacher Mei is wearing was given to her by you, right?"
Han Changping didn't expect that Mei Yingxue would wear it on her head all the time. This really confused him. Does Mei Yingxue like him or not?
If she didn't like it, why would she wear the hairpin I gave her?
But if you said you like me, why did you say you were going to get married at the end of the year?
"Don't be ridiculous. Teacher Mei already has a boyfriend. Even if I wanted to pursue her, it's already too late."
"You wimp, what if you have a boyfriend? Aren't they married yet? If they're not married, then you still have a chance."
Sun Jingtao withdrew his hand from Han Changping's neck and pulled him over to sit beside him. Although it was a little difficult to put his arm around Han Changping's shoulders, he still tried hard to reach Han Changping's broad shoulders and said,
"Brother Han, be brave. This is the character you should have. You are not as good as me in this aspect. Lang Xiujuan was still hesitating about how to reject me, but I didn't even give her the chance."
"oh!"
This was something Han Changping had not expected.
"Why didn't you give him a chance?"
"I told her straight away that I would marry her and would pester her for the rest of my life. I would fight anyone who tried to snatch her away from me. How about that? Wasn't my determination touching enough?"
