Li Dahu was just about to drive the ox cart when a woman wrapped tightly with only a pair of eyes showing shouted at them not far away.
"Wait... wait..."
"It seems to be Aunt Wang." Li Dahu said to Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng also recognized that it was Su Dahua's voice.
Waiting patiently for Su Dahua to come over.
Su Dahua was panting heavily and took out four eggs from the pocket of her worn cotton coat.
"Girl Jinfeng, here, it's ripe...ripe." Su Dahua said.
Li Jinfeng was flattered and took the eggs. "Thank you, Auntie!"
"What are you thanking me for? I was afraid I wouldn't be able to catch up." Su Dahua took off the rag wrapped around her head and wiped the sweat off her forehead.
"Hurry up and go. The weather is so unreliable. Get on the bus early to avoid being delayed on the road."
Su Dahua didn't say a word, finished her instructions, and walked home decisively.
Li Jinfeng looked at the still warm egg in her hand, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
She stuffed two eggs into Lu Jianguo's pocket and put the remaining two into her own pocket.
"Hold on tight, it's time to go!" Li Dahu shouted loudly.
Those who were watching the fun, seeing that Li Jinfeng and Lu Jianguo were about to leave and there was nothing more to watch, all got up and prepared to go home.
It was very cold that day. The cold wind was like an ice knife, and it felt like cutting flesh when it blew on my face.
These people started walking towards their homes.
Li Dahu also began to drive the old ox, and the ox cart finally moved.
Sitting on the ox cart, Lu Jianguo pulled Li Jinfeng towards him, and the two of them immediately leaned close to each other. He used his body to help Li Jinfeng block the howling cold wind.
The three of them walked towards the county town.
After leaving the production team, Li Dahu began to speed up.
But behind him, a thin figure suddenly appeared.
He was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket that didn't fit him and a pair of old cloth shoes with holes in them. He chased after the ox cart with all his might, not daring to even shout.
Lu Jianguo recognized the person as Zhang Xiaobao and said to Li Dahu, "Brother, stop the car."
When Li Dahu heard Lu Jianguo's voice, he quickly stopped the car.
Li Jinfeng raised her head from Lu Jianguo's embrace, met his gaze, and heard him say, "It's Xiaobao."
Li Jinfeng followed Lu Jianguo's gaze and saw Zhang Xiaobao.
The person who was running wildly before must have encountered some obstacle and fell to the ground.
Li Jinfeng was startled, jumped off the ox cart, and rushed forward.
"Xiaobao..." Li Jinfeng reached out and pulled Zhang Xiaobao up from the ground.
Zhang Xiaobao's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Sister Jinfeng, I...I can't bear to leave you."
Zhang Xiaobao stammered and tears began to flow.
Although he had clearly promised grandma that he would not come to see Sister Jinfeng off today, Zhang Xiaobao still couldn't help himself.
"Wow, I'm so useless. We clearly said goodbye that day..." Zhang Xiaobao cried louder and louder, tears falling down his face.
"Silly Xiaobao, it's not like I won't be back. Once the New Year is over and the weather gets better, won't I be back?"
Although it was a rebuke, the tone was very gentle.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded desperately, as if bewitched. "I...I'll wait for you to come back. We can go digging wild vegetables together in the spring."
In the past few years, Zhang Xiaobao had to avoid everyone when digging wild vegetables, so he couldn't dig many wild vegetables.
But if Li Jinfeng was there, he could go to a more remote place.
