Wang Xiaoni is not blind, so she naturally understands it.
Comrade Wen Kai definitely has some intentions towards Tingyun. I wonder what Tingyun thinks?
People in the city like to marry someone of equal social status. She had heard from Erniu's sister-in-law about Tingyun's family situation, and she wondered if they would dislike it?
Just as it was getting dark, Li Tingyun and his companions finally came back, carrying a lot of wood and throwing it in the yard.
Xu Erhua and Xiao Zhuang's mother also prepared dinner, which was a hot pot of braised bamboo shoots and meat.
Because there were so many people, Li Tingyun was afraid that everyone would be reluctant to eat meat, so when he served everyone rice, he put a few pieces of meat in everyone's bowl.
Wen Kai was dumbfounded when he saw that there was meat in the dinner.
This girl is so generous. Doesn't she know how to live?
"Thank you all for your hard work today. I cooked a lot of rice. You must eat your fill." Li Tingyun said as he started to eat first so as not to embarrass everyone.
We had meat at noon and everyone was quite satisfied. At dinner, everyone was very conscientious and after finishing the food in their bowls, they all picked up bamboo shoots to eat.
The other party was generous, so they couldn't go too far and should leave some meat for them.
Li Qiang and Tang Cheng wanted to eat meat, but seeing the villagers like this, they felt embarrassed to take some. They could only look at the meat in the pot and eat a few more mouthfuls of rice.
After dinner, Wen Kai was in a hurry to leave.
Li Tingyun escorted the man out of the yard. Tang Cheng wanted to follow him out, but He Fei called him back: "You don't know him well, why are you following him?"
"Well, she is a comrade in our educated youth camp. Can't I show some concern for her?" Tang Cheng made up an excuse.
"Why do you care? She's not your girlfriend!" He Fei didn't give them any face at all. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the purpose of Li Qiang and Tang Cheng's coming today. They had to keep a close eye on such a good comrade.
Tang Cheng didn't expect He Fei to speak so directly, and he went back embarrassedly to continue working.
Li Qiang laughed in his heart. He was so anxious, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
He took an axe to help chop wood. He had to build the shed in the evening and start work again tomorrow.
Outside the yard, Li Tingyun sent Wen Kai to the car, but found that he didn't seem to be in a hurry to get in.
Wen Kai talked a lot when he was inside, but when he was alone with Li Tingyun, he became a little shy.
"Well, thank you for your hard work today!" Li Tingyun felt a little embarrassed by this shyness.
"It's not hard, not at all." Wen Kai quickly answered after hearing her words. After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "I'm going back to the city tomorrow. I don't know when we'll see each other again. After all, we've been through this together, so I came here to say goodbye to you."
"Then have a safe trip!" Li Tingyun said casually.
Wen Kai looked at Li Tingyun and found that there was no further talk, and he felt a little disappointed.
"If, I mean if, you want to work in the city, I can help you." He said it rather tactfully, not sure if the other person understood.
"Thank you for your kindness. I like it here very much, but I don't have such plans for the time being." Li Tingyun really didn't hear the other person's hidden meaning.
"I, I mean..." Wen Kai became anxious and began to stutter.
Li Tingyun laughed and said, "Okay, if you can't think of anything to say, then forget it. Next time I have the chance, I'll go to the city to have dinner with you."
She knew that in this day and age, if you talked to a man for a few more words, there would definitely be rumors.
Besides, Wen Kai is a promising young man from the city. It is estimated that he will be promoted when he returns.
Wen Kai felt embarrassed and had no choice but to get in the car. After getting in, he opened the window and looked at Li Tingyun again before starting the car and leaving the village.
Li Tingyun waited for the car to drive for a while before turning around and inadvertently saw the ginkgo hiding behind a big tree.
It was still the same big tree, but she could see it more clearly from her angle now and was sure it was a ginkgo tree.
When she returned to the yard from outside, she found that everyone was looking at her strangely. She didn't explain much and continued to work with everyone.
The shed was built at around nine o'clock, and there were still a lot of wooden boards and nails left. Li Tingyun packed up the things and wanted to make them some midnight snacks, but in the end, they all left with the excuse that they had something to do.
The villagers left one after another, so Li Qiang and Tang Cheng naturally couldn't stay. Their biggest gain today was two stews of meat.
When returning, Tang Cheng deliberately said: "It seems that your wishful thinking will fail."
"You make it sound like you have no purpose, but you are the same. That kid is from the city, and you can tell from his clothes that he has an important status. It seems like we have no chance." Li Qiang looked depressed.
Tang Cheng didn't say anything. He felt it was too early to say this now. If that boy really had something going on with Li Tingyun, he would have appeared when she was injured.
Li Qiang also thought so in his heart. He said this just to make the other party give up quickly when he saw no hope, so that he would have one less rival in love.
Li Tingyun didn't know all this. She was exhausted after a busy day.
After sending everyone away, she and Xu Erhua still had to clean up the yard.
After waiting for about half an hour, He Fei came over with a backpack on his back.
Hearing footsteps, Li Tingyun went over and opened the yard door, and sure enough, he saw He Fei.
After He Fei came in, he took out the rabbit and two large pumpkins from his backpack: "This is what our family grew. You can keep it and eat it. I'm leaving now. When we have a break, call Erniu and we'll go for a walk in the mountains again."
"Thank you, Brother He Fei." Li Tingyun did not refuse and took both big pumpkins.
He Fei went back with the backpack without saying anything. Li Tingyun boiled water in the kitchen and asked Erhua to continue working. She cleaned the rabbit, cut it in half and put it in the backpack.
"Erhua, I hunted this rabbit in the mountains during the day. I cut it in half and gave them to the Wang family and Xiaozhuang's family." When she came out of the kitchen, she told Xu Erhua about the matter.
"It's pitch black here, take your flashlight with you and be careful on the road." Xu Erhua said as she went into the room and gave her flashlight to Tingyun.
Li Tingyun nodded: "The door is closed. Don't open it if it's not my voice."
"I understand." Xu Erhua then remembered the masked woman who waited for Li Tingyun to leave and then locked the door.
Xiaozhuang's home is a little far away, so Li Tingyun goes to Xiaozhuang's home first.
Xiaozhuang's mother was just about to take a shower when she heard Tingyun coming over. Thinking something had happened, she put on her clothes and walked out of the house.
Li Tingyun threw down the rabbit, picked up the basket and turned to leave: "I got this on the mountain today. You can't send it back to me, or I'll be angry."
"Hey..." After hearing this, Xiaozhuang's mother hurriedly chased after him.
Xiao Zhuang opened the door. Li Tingyun gave him two candies. The boy was already sitting nearby, unable to walk.
Li Tingyun came out of Xiaozhuang's house and found Chunxing again.
