Following the gaze, Liu Weimin nodded.
"Uncle, I understand. The educated youth are exhausted. Give them a few more days off."
Xiao Jian likes mountain produce, and seems to especially love chestnuts.
Once the weather clears up in a couple of days, we should head back to the mountains. We'll bring her some more mountain produce and chestnuts then.
Then, outwardly, after the harvest is complete and the pigs are slaughtered, thanks to the tractor's contribution, getting an extra ten pounds of meat wouldn't be a problem, and the villagers wouldn't object.
Jian Dan never expected that she would receive additional benefits on the way.
Having received their food rations, they followed Mingzhu back, muttering to themselves.
"With this rain, I haven't been able to eat grilled fish. I've been cooped up inside for three days. If I stay cooped up any longer, I'll grow mold."
Actually, she wasn't really that bored. On rainy days, she spent most of her time in the base space, reading novels, watching TV series and movies, and eating. She was quite busy, but she was used to the hustle and bustle and the sudden feeling of being alone and quiet was not something she was used to.
However, it's true that it's raining outside and the house is damp.
This house is the most sturdy in the village, except for the educated youth compound. The dampness is overwhelming when you step out of the house.
On the last day, she spent almost the entire day burning firewood to dry the kang (heated brick bed) and walls.
As soon as the sky cleared up, she couldn't wait to open the doors and windows, and at the same time, she quickly freed herself up.
Mingzhu is alright, after all, she has a lively son, so the house is never quiet.
However, this child was not well-behaved. He didn't care about the weather. He couldn't stay indoors and would run outside to find Jian Dan. In the end, Mingzhu was so angry that she put the child in the rain and soaked him. Only then did he finally calm down.
I heard about this little anecdote and laughed so hard.
"Huizhou loves her aunt the most, doesn't she? She even misses her aunt on rainy days."
The child ran nimbly, turning back to call out "Simple!"
"It's delicious, let's go!"
As she spoke, she patted her tummy, indicating that she was craving something sweet.
Mingzhu was so angry she couldn't bear to look. Neither she nor Lin Dongfang were shameless or greedy, so she didn't know why this child was like this.
However, I really like Jian Dan. Although the child is greedy, he won't snatch food from her. He has good manners. Even if he asks for food, it's only for her, probably because they are so familiar with each other.
This actually made Jian Dan feel more comfortable.
However, it's clear that even God couldn't stand seeing such simple, good days pass by.
A few days after the weather cleared up, Jian Dan was still planning to travel further and collect more things when she suddenly saw Cheng Rui arrive, and her heart skipped a beat.
