Zhu Yanzhi spoke in a gentle voice, but the encouragement and support contained within it seemed to give Zhu Qinghao strength all at once.
"Dad, thank you, thank you all..."
Thank you all for being alive and well, giving me the opportunity to change that regrettable ending from my past life.
Zhu Yanzhi didn't quite understand what she was saying at first, but his large, warm hand still landed on her head.
“Silly girl, what are you thanking me for? As your parents, we are happy to always stand behind you and see that you are both doing well.”
Knowing that the Zhu family was still waiting, Zhu Qinghao didn't keep Zhu Yanzhi for too long. She only lingered for a short while before packing her things and seeing him out the door.
Watching the dark figure, flashlight in hand, stumble and stagger towards the cowshed, Zhu Qinghao's heart clenched.
Her father, who had devoted half his life to academia and was a gentle and refined man, was ultimately changed by this cannibalistic bastard, and her other family members were also greatly changed...
The days that followed passed even faster, and the whole village became visibly busier, but no one neglected to sprout the bean sprouts.
On the 20th of the twelfth lunar month, the last batch of bean sprouts before the New Year is delivered, and everyone can rest for half a month, because many factories will be closed for the holidays, and some will not be able to go back to work until after the fifteenth of the first lunar month.
That afternoon, after Wang Fulin and his team brought back the payment and distributed it to everyone, they immediately announced that they would slaughter a pig the next day and have a feast of pig-slaughtering dishes!
The slaughter of the pig signifies that the New Year is truly approaching.
With the meat about to be distributed, and everyone having made some money this year, no one in the team was unhappy. They discussed and shared their joy with each other, talking until their throats were dry, but they didn't want to stop.
Seeing everyone's satisfied smiles, Zhu Qinghao was unconsciously infected by their joy and also smiled.
"At this moment, everyone's happiness seems to be very simple."
Looking at the lively scene, Si Tian couldn't help but sigh.
Zhu Qing heard this and nodded in agreement.
Li Fanghua, who was not far away, also heard Si Tian's words and walked over.
"Yes, happiness for ordinary farmers is that simple. As long as the harvest is decent and they can have a good New Year, everyone is happy."
Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian both had a good impression of her. When they saw her coming over, they smiled and nodded to greet her.
Seeing the two people's friendly attitude, Li Fanghua smiled and moved even closer.
"Hello, you two former educated youths~ I'm Li Fanghua. We've met before, but perhaps the scene wasn't so pleasant..."
Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian couldn't help but laugh, and they spoke one after the other.
"Hello, Comrade Li Fanghua. My name is Zhu Qinghao."
"Hello, Comrade Li Fanghua, I am Si Tian!"
It was a pleasure meeting you. You certainly left a strong impression on us last time, but it wasn't exactly unpleasant. In fact, we thought you were quite nice, right?
Zhu Qinghao kept smiling, and as soon as Si Tian finished speaking, she nodded in agreement.
Li Fanghua was originally worried that she had been too shrewish last time and might have offended people, fearing that Zhu Qinghao or Si Tian might have a problem with her.
So now that he has received Si Tian's approval, he looks very happy, and a bright smile immediately blooms on his face.
"Thank you, you two educated youths. I've always wanted to be friends with you, but I was afraid you'd think I was too uncouth, so I've been too shy to approach you..."
Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian shook their heads repeatedly after hearing this.
