Qi Wei suffered a great loss during his last home visit to Kun Kun's house; he had diarrhea for two days before his health gradually improved.
Lu Wanqing went to the school to find Lin Ye, and he was secretly pleased, thinking that she was going to visit him. Who knew that An Jie would come to him crying and saying that Lin Ye had slapped her because of Lu Wanqing.
He wasn't really concerned about An Jie; he just wanted to know from her what Lu Wanqing truly felt about him.
“Principal Qi, it’s not that I’m deliberately belittling Teacher Lin’s wife, but she’s gone too far. It’s just a few steamed buns, and she didn’t even offer to bring you any. You said you two used to have a good relationship, but now she only has eyes for Teacher Lin and is so cold to you,” An Jie said, sobbing.
Qi Wei felt as if his heart was being torn apart. Women were so fickle. He knew that he had made an unforgivable mistake by seducing Lu Jiajia, but he couldn't just condemn her and treat her like a stranger!
He had already come over and begged her in a low voice, but she still had this attitude. It was truly disheartening!
However, Anjie's words reminded him that Lin Ye must have given her some kind of spell to make her so indifferent now.
Today the school is organizing a spring outing, and he has already planned in his mind to tidy up the woods.
Of course, An Jie suggested this spring outing at Qi Wei's suggestion.
Children in cities usually go on spring outings, where schools organize trips to the countryside or parks. Children in rural areas, on the other hand, often have to do part-time jobs to support themselves.
So when Anjie suggested a spring outing, the children were very happy, and Qi Wei, going along with their enthusiasm, agreed.
Since the school didn't have a car and no one in the family owned one, Qi Wei chose a nearby commune with peach orchards, which was easy to walk to.
It's springtime, and the peach blossoms are in full bloom. Letting the children play in a place where peach blossoms are in full bloom for a day is a great way to relax.
After the school bell rang, the homeroom teachers organized the children to gather on the playground. Lin Ye was responsible for distributing boiled sweet potatoes for lunch to each of them, one to each person, and stuffing them into their schoolbags. After making sure that everyone's aluminum water bottle was full of water, he organized everyone to set off towards Taolin.
As the principal, Qi Wei naturally led the team at the front, followed by an older student carrying a red flag.
The procession of over a hundred people walked along the winding dirt road, leaving a trail of dust on the ground as they passed, creating a truly spectacular scene.
To make management easier, Lin Ye rode his bicycle at the back of the group.
The peach orchard was more than ten miles away, but the group was in high spirits and walked for more than an hour without feeling tired at all.
When they finally arrived at the peach orchard, everyone was so excited to see the vast expanse of bright red peach blossoms that they were ready to run away at any moment.
"Children, please stay in your classes and don't run around. Follow your teachers closely while you play," Du Wenbing instructed.
Soon, everyone dispersed into the peach orchard to play, organized by class.
With flowers blooming overhead and green grass growing underfoot, the children's innocence bursts forth at this moment. They play freely in small groups, or play games like throwing beanbags and kicking shuttlecocks.
Kun Kun, who was having a great time playing, suddenly felt the urge to urinate and asked Du Wenbing for permission to go. Du Wenbing looked at the terrain and told him to go to a quiet spot nearby.
No sooner had Kun Kun left than Xu Bowen and Zhou Xiaochuan also said they needed to urinate and headed in the direction Kun Kun had come from...
Lin Ye took the children on a spring outing today, and Lu Wanqing was also busy.
She had promised to make a cheongsam for Yu Meifeng and wanted to finish it as soon as possible.
After a period of study, she has gained some experience in pattern making. Under Elaine Chao's guidance, she can now make patterns quite well. The clothes she sews are generally not bad, but in terms of details, she is still not as thoughtful as Elaine Chao.
Zhao Xiaolan's mind wasn't very clear, and although she knew how to do it herself, she didn't know how to teach it, so she could only figure it out slowly on her own.
Fortunately, by watching her every day and being influenced by her, she has made rapid progress and can now even use a sewing machine a little.
While the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were busy in the studio, Li Fang came over for a visit. She had heard about how Chen Xiangxiu was helping her earn money through embroidery and was incredibly envious.
"It's so frustrating to compare yourself to others! Why don't I have any special skills? You can design clothes, and Sister Xiangxiu can embroider. You both earn money every day. You're all so amazing!"
In addition, Luo Hao recently said he was going to get married, and he immediately built two additional rooms. Although they were mud-brick houses, they still cost several hundred yuan. His wife is really lucky. She wished she could make some money herself.
"Sister Li Fang, how good are you at using the sewing machine? Didn't Aunt Luo buy you a sewing machine back then?" Lu Wanqing asked.
That sewing machine was part of the bride price given by the groom's family, and at the time, many young wives envied it.
Li Fang pouted, "I'm so clumsy, I don't know how to do that at all. The first time I used it, I poked a hole in my hand, and I never dared to touch it again. Later, my mother-in-law made all the clothes and things at home."
She had originally planned to have her learn to make clothes from Zhao Xiaolan, but judging from this, it seemed like that was out of the question, and Lu Wanqing felt a chill in her heart.
Being a tailor is definitely hard work. Since she started making clothes, she has pricked her hands countless times with needles. After each prick, she would apply ointment mixed with spiritual spring water, and the pricks would continue the next day.
However, if you don't endure these hardships, you won't earn money, and you'll suffer from a lack of food and clothing. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
While Li Fang was chatting idly, Zhao Xiaolan finished making the cheongsam.
Lu Wanqing checked it, cut off the excess threads, folded it neatly, and prepared to give it to Chen Xiangxiu.
Upon seeing this, Li Fang warmly took her hand and wanted to go with her.
At this time, everyone else was at work, but Li Fang had her period and felt a little uncomfortable, so she didn't go to work, but that didn't stop her from visiting other people's homes.
Lu Wanqing didn't mind her keeping her company, so she didn't refuse.
The two were walking on the ridge of the field when suddenly Lin Ye rode his bicycle at high speed towards them.
"Ah Ye, what happened?" Lu Wanqing could tell from his expression that something was wrong.
Lin Ye quickly stopped the car by tapping the ground with his foot and told them that Kun Kun was missing.
Li Fang immediately let go of Lu Wanqing's hand, feeling dizzy. "How could this happen? What should we do?"
Lu Wanqing hugged her, "Don't worry, Lin Ye will go find your family and talk to Captain Wang again, and have everyone in the team go out to look for people."
Lin Ye nodded to Lu Wanqing, stepped onto the pedals, and rode towards the river.
Lu Wanqing had no choice but to send Li Fang home and tell her to wait for news at home.
When Aunt Luo heard that Kunkun was missing, she was extremely anxious and wished she could ride on her own two feet to find him.
"He was all smiles this morning, saying he was going on a spring outing today. How did this happen?" Aunt Luo muttered.
Upon hearing this, Li Fang immediately turned her attention to Lu Wanqing: "Wanqing, doesn't Lin Ye usually like Kun Kun the most? Why didn't he keep an eye on him this time?"
Lu Wanqing was completely bewildered. She hadn't even figured out what was going on yet, and they were already talking like this. So, their enthusiastic hand-holding earlier was just a facade of friendship?
