Chapter 414 You Can't Afford to Buy Coal
Xu Yinghua understood that instead of refusing and making Su Ruanruan worry, it would be better to let Su Ruanruan feel at ease.
Just like Su Ruanruan said, only when she and Qi Anfu are doing well can Su Ruanruan feel at ease and not worry about them all the time.
After the ox cart was harnessed, Su Runruan and Xiao Chengjin left.
The two drove the ox cart directly to the Su family.
On the way, Su Ruanruan looked at Xiao Chengjin curiously, "How come you can drive a bullock cart?"
I've never seen Xiao Chengjin drive cows before! "When our production team still had cows, I drove them everywhere. You may not have noticed."
Speaking of this, there was a hint of resentment in Xiao Chengjin's voice, as if he was blaming Su Runrun for not paying attention to him.
Su Ruanruan felt both amused and guilty.
The third production team had raised two cows before, but both cows died of illness later, and then they encountered a disaster year.
When the two cows were still alive, she followed Wang Aiju all day long. All she had in her mind and eyes were those bastards from the Wang family. She never paid any attention to Xiao Chengjin.
"Ahem." Su Ruanruan cleared her throat, "I will watch everything you do from now on!"
Definitely paying close attention to you!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chengjin smiled with satisfaction.
The two of them sat on the ox cart and soon arrived at the gate of the Su family.
Su Ruanruan took out the key and opened the door, and Xiao Chengjin drove the ox cart directly to the backyard.
This is the advantage of having a big gate. If it were a small courtyard in the county town, even if there were no steps, an ox cart would not be able to enter.
There wasn't much firewood left in the Su family's backyard. Even after two people bundled it up, they could only fill half of the truck.
Seeing this, Xiao Chengjin smiled and said, "Just in time, go to my house and load half a truck."
By then, half will be enough for each family.
After the firewood was loaded, Xiao Chengjin drove the ox cart to the county town alone, and Su Runruan stayed at the Xiao family.
The ox cart moved slowly, and when they arrived at the county town, it was noon, the hottest time of the day. Xiao Chengjin was reluctant to let Su Runruan suffer this, so he asked Su Runruan to stay at Xiao's house, and after he came back, the two of them would ride bicycles back to the county town.
After Xiao Chengjin left, Su Runruan sat and talked with Luo Yufeng.
The weather was good this year, and there was not much work to do in the fields at this time, so Luo Yufeng had nothing to do. Every day she would tidy up the house and do some needlework.
The two of them sat on the kang with the window open. Occasionally a breeze blew in, which was quite cool.
Just then, a person walked in through the door.
The man was holding a child in his arms.
Su Ruanruan took a closer look and found that it was Li Hongxia.
Li Hongxia had heard from others that Su Runrun and Xiao Chengjin had returned to the production team early in the morning. Not only that, Xiao Chengjin also took away a cart of firewood.
Li Hongxia carried the child into the house and sat next to Su Ruanruan.
"Ruanruan has moved to the county town to enjoy a good life, why are you still thinking about the firewood from the production team! I heard that people in the city use coal stoves, which are convenient and clean. What do you think? Could it be that you can't afford coal?"
Hearing this, Su Ruanruan frowned slightly, "Whether I can afford to buy coal is my business. Besides, what we pull is our own stuff, how can it be from the production team? Could it be that the firewood in your yard is also from the production team?"
"Of course not!"
"That's it!"
Su Ruanruan was a little confused about what Li Hongxia was thinking.
