They are not good at expressing themselves, yet they want to maintain their inexplicable dignity.
“Haha, I’ll tell it,” Wang Tianxiao patted Dafeng’s head and pointed at Liu Yuan, “Young comrade, you need to know who our friends are and who our enemies are. We should treat our friends with the warmth of spring and our enemies with the coldness of winter. This kind uncle in front of us is our good friend, so you should be polite to him, understand?”
Da Feng stared at Liu Yuan for a long time, rolled his eyes, and continued licking Wang Tianxiao's palm.
Wang Tianxiao smiled awkwardly: "Take it slow, give it some time."
Liu Yuan ignored him and glared angrily at Da Feng. Da Feng immediately bared his teeth and glared at Liu Yuan, which made Wang Tianxiao unable to suppress his laughter.
I don't know who to advise against arguing with.
"By the way, how's Dahei? Is its leg alright?" Wang Tianxiao thought of Dahei again. When he came to pick it up that night, it was also limping.
"Fortunately, its bones were slightly dislocated, but I've already helped it get back in place, so there shouldn't be any problems. Dogs recover faster than humans, so it should be fine in a few days."
"That's good." Wang Tianxiao nodded, relieved.
He took out a hundred yuan and stuffed it into Liu Yuan's hand. "Uncle Liu, we've troubled you a lot lately, helping us modify the seeding tools and treating the dogs' injuries. Here's some money for you."
"don't want!"
Liu Yuan shoved the money back at him, saying irritably, "What do I need your money for? You just need to feed me, provide me with shelter, and give me wine. I'm an old man with nowhere to spend my money."
"You can keep it. For example, you need money to buy tobacco leaves."
"Take it back now. How much money can you spend on tobacco leaves?" Liu Yuan turned and left, saying as he went, "Just make sure my wine keeps flowing. If you continue like this, I'm not staying here any longer."
Wang Tianxiao smiled wryly and put the money away.
This old man has been here for so many days, but no one really knows his true situation.
I don't know if he's married, has children or a spouse, or even where he lives. I've tried to subtly inquire a few times, but I've always managed to deflect the question cleverly.
Over time, Wang Tianxiao realized that Liu Yuan must have information he didn't want to tell others.
Everyone has secrets they don't want others to know. If they don't want to talk about it, then don't force them to. Believe that if you need to know, you will get all the information at the right time.
I just felt a little embarrassed.
Liu Yuan has already done quite a lot at the station.
He was responsible for feeding, watering, and cleaning all the animals, and also had to take on the role of a carpenter. Although he didn't have to go into the mountains to work, he was still getting on in years and it was a bit tough.
Wang Tianxiao had been up and about since yesterday, and hadn't slept for dozens of hours. He was just about to go back and catch up on some sleep when the Wu brothers got up.
So he showed them the simple diagram he had drawn yesterday and told them to start sowing seeds today.
Simply record the area sown daily and keep track of the workload.
The Wu brothers knew beforehand that their main task was to cultivate medicinal herbs, so they carefully inquired about some precautions and assured Wang Tianxiao that they would sow the seeds properly.
While expressing his satisfaction with their recent work, Wang Tianxiao also shared his vision for the future with them.
This gave the two inexperienced brothers even more motivation.
Of course, Wang Tianxiao wasn't just making empty promises. He told the two brothers his true thoughts and goals: he wanted to build a very comfortable and natural place here.
Everyone here has to go through a basic screening process, keeping only those with good character and morality, and never letting any people with ulterior motives infiltrate.
Back in the room, Li Yali was already up and knitting a sweater for Wang Fang.
Seeing him enter, covered in dust from his journey, she said with concern, "Shopkeeper, are you done with your work?"
"Okay, that's it."
Wang Tianxiao threw his overcoat onto the bench inside, changed into a clean sweater, and intended to wash up before going to sleep. However, as soon as he touched the warm kang (heated brick bed), he felt completely drained and didn't want to get up.
He said it was over, but he knew in his heart that things were only just beginning. Tiancheng hadn't had the surgery yet, and he would need to rest for another month or so after the surgery.
He hasn't told the people at the pit courtyard about Tiancheng's injury yet. Once they find out, there will definitely be a lot of complaints directed at him, and it will probably cause a huge uproar.
He was no longer afraid of those people's sarcastic remarks, but after all, Tiancheng had followed him up the mountain and then got injured. If his brothers and sisters asked about it, he would really have to take the blame.
It's so annoying.
Let's talk about it when the time comes. Anyway, he has already found a way to deal with those people in the family. If they are not too excessive, he will treat them peacefully. If their words or actions are too extreme, then he will not be so good-tempered.
"How is Tiancheng's leg? Is it serious?"
"Fortunately, I went to the hospital and saw a specialist who said I needed to have surgery and then rest for a month or two."
"Oh, it's been so long," Li Yali stopped what she was doing, her face full of worry. "Won't that affect his plans for next year? This child has always wanted to join the army."
Wang Tianxiao said with a wry smile, "Logically speaking, he shouldn't be injured. There are still about six months until the military test, so he should be able to recover. I'm just ashamed because I wanted him to experience life in the mountains, but I didn't expect it to cause him to get hurt."
Seeing her husband's helpless expression, Li Yali quickly understood his position and gently held his hand in hers. "This matter cannot be entirely blamed on you."
Wang Tianxiao smiled.
"You should get some sleep. You haven't slept since yesterday, and your complexion looks sallow."
