Chapter 127: Herding Sheep Together (1/2)



Fang Suyun said to Xu Zhenqing and Mo Wuwei who had just walked out, "I need to go out a bit to get some things. Wait for me."

She found that Mo Wuwei was looking at her, and he must have recognized her.

She would not get further entangled with these monsters. This was not the person she was looking for. She snorted and walked away.

After she left, Fang Suyun came out: "I forgot to bring the kettle just now. I brought it now. Let's go."

The three of them walked into the fields together. They usually did not work with these members and educated youth, but went to open up wasteland at the foot of the mountain.

Xu Nuannuan and Old Lady Guan went out together, with Tuanzi running ahead of them.

"Nuannuan, your dog is so cute. Did you adopt it from someone?"

"No, I found it in the field. It was very human and obedient, so I brought it here."

They were talking as they walked, and when they almost reached the sheep pen, Guadan was sitting outside the pen, waiting for Xu Nuannuan to come, and then he would drive the sheep out of the pen.

"Sister, who is this grandma?"

"She's the grandma I met when I went to the countryside. Just call her Grandma Guan."

"Oh, hello, Grandma Guan."

Mrs. Guan smiled and said, "Hello, little friend."

Guadan scratched his head embarrassedly. Everyone here called him Guadanzi, bastard, little bastard, and someone who popped out from a crack in the rock. No one had ever called him "little friend". This word sounded nice and made him feel looked down upon. He felt happy, but he couldn't adapt.

He and Tuanzi were herding the sheep in front, while Xu Nuannuan and Old Lady Guan followed behind.

Taking care of the elderly Mrs. Guan, Xu Nuannuan took the initiative to slow down her walking speed to keep pace with her.

But Mrs. Guan didn't feel tired at all: "I would feel a little tired if I walked like this in Beijing, but I don't feel that much here."

Xu Nuannuan thought about it and wondered if it was because she gave Old Lady Guan the spiritual spring water that temporarily strengthened her physique.

"Grandma, the air here is fresh. It can help you breathe fresh air better. Maybe that's the reason."

"Yes, that might be the case."

They first came to a grassland at the foot of the mountain to graze sheep. A few meters away from them was the place where Xu Zhenqing, Fang Suyun and Mo Wuwei had cleared the land, but because of the hillside, trees and crops blocking the way, they could not see the situation over there.

Xu Nuannuan first took Old Lady Guan for a walk around the area, rested for a while, and then they went somewhere else.

Soon they arrived at the place where Xu Zhenqing and his team were clearing land. Old Mrs. Guan's eyesight wasn't very good, but she could roughly spot Xu Zhenqing and pointed at him: "Nuannuan, look, that's the person who showed me the way yesterday. Why aren't they working with others? Let's go over and take a look."

Xu Nuannuan didn't want anyone else to know about her father's death, including Mrs. Guan.

"Grandma, they are the people who were sent down from the cowshed. Let's not go there. I'll take you somewhere else."

"Oh, okay. I think that guy is pretty good, but it's a pity that this guy is so ugly."

"Grandma, where are you going to live these days? Is the big kang at the educated youth camp big enough for you?"

The kang in the youth cadre center could easily accommodate seven or eight people. After she moved out, there were still five educated youths living in the female educated youth dormitory, plus Guan Yurong, making a total of seven people. If old lady Guan also slept there, it would be very crowded and inconvenient.

"I'll squeeze in with them at night."

"Grandma, if you don't mind my words, come sleep over at my place. I'm alone, and you can chat with me at night."

Mrs. Guan was overjoyed. "Nuannuan invited me, so I must go."

Guan Yurong accompanied Lin Ruyan to the fields and finished the work with Lin Ruyan slowly. After work, Guan Yurong asked Lin Ruyan to go back to the dormitory first, and she went to Jiang's house to talk to Jiang Ting and Mei Xiangcao.

When she came to the Mei family, except Jiang Ye, everyone else in the Jiang family was at home. Jiang Yang was studying in the room, while Jiang Ting and Mei Xiangcao were in the yard.

None of the three knew her, so Mei Xiangcao asked, "Zhi, may I ask who you are and who you are looking for?"

Guan Yurong looked down on families like the Jiang family. After entering the door, she was too lazy to even put on a false expression.

He took advantage of her condescending attitude and spoke in a cold tone, as if a high-ranking official was speaking to a prisoner.

"I'm here to meet you, Lin Ruyan, the educated youth. I have something I want to talk to you about."

Mei Xiangcao was surprised: "What do you want to talk to us about? We have never had any quarrels with Lin Zhiqing."

"You didn't fight with my daughter, but your daughter fought with Fu Yunqi and Fu Zhiqing."
