Chapter 7: No more stalls in the underworld
After Qin Yunie secretly cursed him in his heart, he let out a breath and felt a little better.
She forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Brother Xie, Brother Fan, for your care during this period, but I still hope to continue to set up a stall in the underworld. Could you please ask for me again?"
Fan Wujiu looked at Qin Yunie's forced smile and couldn't help but agree: "We'll go back and ask for you. It just so happens that you need to take good care of your body these days, so you should rest at home first."
Qin Yunie nodded: "Okay. Brother Fan, thank you, brother. I'm sorry to trouble you."
Xie Bian glanced at her and said, "Then we will go back to the underworld. It's not about work. We can't stay in the world of the living for too long."
Qin Yunie smiled and said, "Okay, when I feel better, I will make you something delicious to thank you!"
After she finished speaking, she paused as if she had thought of something, and added, "Even if I can't continue to set up a stall in the underworld, you can still come to my house and I'll cook for you."
Before Fan Wujiu could say anything, Xie Bian said, "We will try our best to help you get it."
Qin Yunie was stunned for a moment and thanked him subconsciously.
The next second, Xie Bian suddenly said: "The braised pork is quite delicious."
Qin Yunie didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't expect that Xie Bian actually liked to eat braised pork. She nodded in agreement.
After Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu left, Qin Yunie also became free.
This is the first time she has had so much free time since she came back.
She got up leisurely and made herself a hearty breakfast.
After breakfast, she walked out of the room, looked at the lush trees and fields full of wild flowers in the distance, closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The fresh air mixed with the smell of flowers, plants and trees brought her heart to an unprecedented peace.
"Hune, are you home?"
Qin Yunie opened her eyes and looked towards the source of the voice. Seeing that it was Aunt Wang, she smiled and called out, "Aunt Wang."
Aunt Wang raised her hand slightly, and the vegetables tied with vines also swayed. "I saw that you haven't been out for the past two days, so I came to see what happened to you and bring you some vegetables grown at home. Why are you so pale? Are you tired?"
"I was feeling a little unwell, so I didn't go out." Qin Yunie hurried forward to take the things from her hand, "You worked hard to grow them, you can just eat them at home, and you brought them to me."
Aunt Wang kept on nagging, "You can make money anytime, but if your body is worn out, no amount of money can restore it. Don't think that just because you're young, you can ignore your body."
"These are all vegetables grown at home, without any weird drugs. I estimated that the vegetables I sent you last time should be almost finished, so I picked some more for you. Vegetables grown outside are treated with all kinds of growth hormones and pesticides from the moment they are planted. How can you be as safe as vegetables grown at home?"
Listening to Aunt Wang's caring words, Qin Yunie's nose felt a little sour, "I know."
She brought a stool for Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang, please sit down."
Seeing Qin Yunie's expression, Aunt Wang couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Wang is not a talkative person, but everyone in the village cares about you. Tell me, you didn't stay in the big city to work after graduation, but suddenly came back to the village. Is that family treating you badly?"
Qin Yunie thought about his past life and was silent for a long time. He said, "I just figured it out. I am just an ordinary citizen. I earn money with my own hands. Even if it is little, I spend it happily. Isn't it said that a golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse? The village is my home. Wherever my home is, I will be there."
Qin Yunie felt that the sufferings he had endured were all in the past and there was no need to talk about them to elicit sympathy.
She just wants to make money now, nothing else.
But in Aunt Wang's eyes, Qin Yunie was wronged in that family's home.
Aunt Wang knew that a child who had never been loved by his family since childhood would be more sensitive than ordinary people, but Qin Yunie had always been tough. She must have suffered a lot of injustice for her to make up her mind to return to the village and say such words.
When she first knew that she still had biological parents, the little girl smiled and said to the uncles and aunts in the village: "When she has money, she will take them to the city to play."
As a result, I only went there for a few years, and I didn't take anything with me when I left. When I came back, I only brought gifts for each family and a small suitcase.
As soon as he came back, he was anxious to make money without even having time to rest for a few days. It was obvious that he was not living well in his new home.
Otherwise, with Qin Yunie's good temper, he would never abandon his family. He would rather return to his hometown and work hard every day to drive a lunch truck than live a life of luxury in a big city.
I don't have much money, but I still want to buy them gifts.
The more Aunt Wang looked at Qin Yunie, the more pity she felt in her eyes. What a poor child.
His adoptive parents died early, and his biological parents didn't love him. I don't know how much injustice he must have suffered in the past few years.
When Aunt Wang thought of this, she felt a lump in her throat. She felt as if her daughter had been wronged in someone else's home and had come back crying silently. She felt very uncomfortable.
She didn't know how to comfort Qin Yunie, but she felt that if she didn't do something, she would feel bad, so she looked around, and remembered that the land in her backyard hadn't been plowed, so she rolled up her sleeves and said, "I passed by yesterday and saw that your backyard hadn't been plowed yet. It's a good opportunity for me to come today, so I'll help you plow the two plots of land in the backyard and plant some vegetables. You can't eat all of them by yourself."
Qin Yunie didn't know what Aunt Wang was thinking. She was thinking about what Aunt Wang said and felt that she could tidy up the backyard, when she saw Aunt Wang had already gotten up to work.
Qin Yunie originally wanted to help clean up the backyard, but was rejected by Aunt Wang on the grounds that she was not feeling well and needed to rest.
There was no other choice, so she went into the kitchen and cooked a pot of heat-clearing and summer-heat-relieving soup and sent it to Aunt Wang.
Then I started making lunch.
As a result, before she finished cooking, Aunt Wang came in and said, "Yune, the soil in the backyard has been turned over. These are Chinese cabbage seedlings. They grow very fast and can be used to make soup or stir-fry. These are cowpeas, corn, and tomatoes. Just plant them according to the plan. If you don't know how, I'll come over to teach you some other day. I'll go back first."
After saying that, he put the seeds on the stool and turned away.
Qin Yunie quickly put down what he was holding and chased after her, "Aunt, eat first and then go back!"
Aunt Wang waved her hand, "No need, I'm in a hurry to go back and cook for your uncle."
While she was talking, she had already walked a long way away.
Qin Yunie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she had to go back to the kitchen to prepare the dishes and send some to Aunt Wang's house.
Qin Yunie stayed at home for another two days. During these two days, she used the seeds given to her by Aunt Wang and planted them according to Aunt Wang's instructions. After she was done, she had some free time.
