After watching the lively harvest scene in the field for a while, Fan Xiaofan lost interest.
Fu Weidong and Gou Dan met up and ran off to the fields to glean wheat ears.
Fan Xiaofan was talking to Fan Yunyan. It has to be said that Fan Yunyan's skin adapted to life in the village much faster than Fan Xiaofan himself.
Compared to the last time she met this older brother, Fan Yunyan was noticeably darker.
Before Fan Yunyan saw his second sister, he was still huffing and puffing like a man, but as soon as he saw her, for some reason, his stomach started growling.
Shi Lingheng, who was standing next to him, glanced at him.
Fan Yunyan's dark face instantly turned red. You know, his stomach is smarter than his brain. As soon as he saw his second sister, he knew she was hungry.
Sure enough, when he got to his second sister, she unceremoniously shoved two large cornbread buns into his hands. His hands were dirty and sweaty; he certainly wouldn't have been so careless before, but now, with his stomach growling, what did it matter...?
He swallowed the cornbread in a few bites, then rolled his eyes and found some water near the field for him to drink.
"Second sister, you are my second parents."
Fan Xiaofan rolled her eyes and chuckled, "I don't have a son as big as you..."
Fan Yunyan almost choked again.
However, after he recovered, he quickly asked excitedly, "Did you really come up with the idea to modify that tractor? How do you have such great abilities? I don't know how to do anything like that!"
Fan Xiaofan silently uttered five words: "This is the fate of someone who is stupid and doesn't read enough."
Fan Yunyan: "..."
He could say that he was only a high school graduate, while his second sister had never been to school. But where did Zhan Yuan'an get all those random books and teach his second sister to be so capable?
He regretted not having looked at it properly at home. He had actually looked at it once or twice, but the messy tadpole-like symbols on the page made him dizzy.
He considered himself to be quite knowledgeable, but after reading those books, he often questioned the meaning of life.
Fan Yunyan now truly understands the benefits of reading more. Look at him, they were both sent-down youth, but his second sister became a worker and everyone in the village praised her. As for him, he never thought he had only half-baked up his education, but compared to his second sister, he now really felt like a semi-illiterate.
Otherwise, why would modifying a tractor be such a simple task for Er Mei, while he didn't even know how many parts a tractor had?
Fan Xiaofan also specially prepared some food for Fan Yunyan, saying, "This is the money Dad gave you before. You didn't take it, but it's your share too. I know there's not much food in the village, so I exchanged it for food for you."
Fan Yunyan was stunned. He knew that when Fan Xiaofan returned from Beidu last time, he had told him that the money given by Fan's father should be split in half, but he had waved his hand and refused.
In his view, his original plan was to go to the countryside to take care of his younger sister, but all along his sister had been supporting him financially...
This big guy stood there every day, working in the fields to earn work points without a break. At first, he stumbled around and didn't earn as much as the women in the village, but he eventually caught up...
However, the educated youth also had to exchange work points for their food. They were currently eating food that they owed to the brigade, so they never had a full stomach.
His second sister was good to him and would often give him money; otherwise, he would have become as thin as those who were starving, just skin and bones.
