The newly built house is relatively small, and you can see it growing a little taller almost every day.
Song Fuyu was relatively calm. After all, he was already 29 years old before he traveled through time. He was accustomed to the tall buildings in the city, so he had no concerns about this one-story house.
Sixteen-year-old Tong Youyou behaved completely differently from her.
She controlled her expression and laughter so as not to make it too obvious.
But every day after dinner, he would stand in the vegetable garden, secretly count the bricks, and then tell Song Fuyu exactly how many bricks the house had grown taller that day.
Song Fuyu did not dampen her enthusiasm, and would respond to her happily every time she reported.
As for the ownership of the newly built house, everyone initially guessed that it belonged to Song Fuyu, even Ye Feixue thought so.
But after a few days of observation, she found that Song Fuyu had never been to the construction site, and had never even looked there once. She suddenly doubted whether she had guessed wrong.
But regardless of whether the house belonged to Song Fuyu or not, she had already written a letter home, asking her family to send her some money. She also wanted to build a house for herself and move out of this crappy Youth League institution.
Speaking of sending letters, Chen Guoxing in Heng City finally received the letter sent to him by Song Fuyu yesterday.
When he received the letter, the driver Xiao Chen was still next to him.
He asked the other person to leave with a serious expression, closed the door, and opened the letter impatiently.
The content of the letter was actually very simple. Song Fuyu simply wrote down what she saw and heard on the train, and then told her that he had arrived safely in Qin City.
At the end of the letter, after hesitating for a long time, I finally wrote down the specific address of my trip to the countryside.
In fact, even if she didn't write it, with her godfather's connections, he would know the answer in less than half an hour, but she felt that it would appear more formal if she told him.
However, when Chen Guoxing saw the address, his first thought was not to write back to her, but to call Xiao Chen and ask him to drive him to the department store because he had to buy some more things for his daughter.
I don’t know if she has finished the snacks I bought for her before.
So many days have passed, maybe it has been eaten up.
There are so many educated youths in the Youth League Home. If they eat together, they have to share some with them. Otherwise, what if they bully their daughters?
My daughter is so young and so weak, she would definitely not be able to win the fight, so she could only hold back her tears.
When he thought of this possibility, he immediately decided to buy more things and send them over.
For the sake of food, they should be nicer to Fu Yu.
If the educated youth in the Youth League knew what Chen Guoxing was thinking, they would definitely suspect whether he had any misunderstandings about Song Fuyu.
Can the word "weak" be used to describe a person who can slap someone and leave a clear slap mark?
Would they dare to bully someone who kicked a man and caused him to take two days off from work due to the pain?
But Chen Guoxing didn't know all this. In his eyes, his daughter was the cutest and the best behaved.

Several days have passed and Gu Yuan has not mentioned the slingshot again.
Even Song Fuyu lamented that this little guy was so patient. He clearly wanted to learn very much, but he just wouldn't open his mouth.
As a result, when Song Fuyu and Tong Youyou just walked to the entrance of Gu's yard, he mysteriously took out something from behind him and handed it to Song Fuyu.
You don’t know until you see it. Once you see it, you will exclaim that it is amazing.
He was holding a slingshot in his hand.
Judging from the handle, it seems to be newly made, and he should have made it himself.
"Young man, you have good skills."
When Gu Yuan heard her compliment, he lowered his head shyly.
Song Fuyu took the slingshot he made in his hand and looked at it carefully.
The handle is polished very smoothly and will not prick your hand at all. However, due to the material of the rubber band and leather bag, it is not possible to use it at a long distance and the force is not strong enough.
If it is stretched a little bit or a larger bullet is used, it may break directly.
Although the slingshot looks simple, it actually has very high requirements for the rubber band.
In ancient times, deer spine tendons were commonly used, while in modern times, natural latex or synthetic butyl rubber is usually used.
"Sister Fu Yu, can I use this?"
"It can be used, but it can only hit objects within ten meters, and you can't use too much force. You can use it to practice your accuracy at close range first."
"There aren't many tricks to using a slingshot. It's just a matter of practicing more."
"But there is one thing I must make clear in advance. You must not shoot at people. Unless you encounter a bad guy and need to protect yourself, you can consider using a slingshot. Do you understand?"
"Got it. I won't mess around."
Although it can't hit too far, the 10-meter distance already makes Gu Yuan very happy. After all, this is the first slingshot he made. After he studies it further, he should be able to make a slingshot that can hit farther.
..........
After working for more than ten days, the educated youth finally had a day off.
She suddenly missed the time when she was in school, when she could count the days every day and look forward to the holidays.
There is nothing to look forward to now, unless you ask for leave yourself. If you want to take a holiday, the team leader has to evaluate the work in the village. If it is too busy, he will notify everyone two days in advance to take a day off.
If you are particularly busy, you have to work all the time and you can't do as you said before, work ten days and take one day off.
Song Fuyu dug Tong Youyou out of bed at five o'clock in the morning.
The educated youth all have a day off today. It’s a rare day off, so they should all want to go to the town.
The ox cart sets out at six in the morning, but after all, there is only one ox cart, and at most it can carry eight people. If you don't go there early, you will have to walk for more than two hours.
Sure enough, when the two of them went over, there were already three aunts in the car.
"Song Zhiqing, Tong Zhiqing, are you guys going to town too? Come up quickly. We can set off after waiting for two or three more people."
The aunt in the car kindly helped them and the two of them got on the car smoothly.
Each person handed two cents to Uncle Lin who was sitting in the front driving the cattle.
"Song Zhiqing, are you used to it during your time in our Shanhe Village?"
An aunt asked Song Fuyu with a smile.
"I'm quite used to it. Both the team leader and the aunts and uncles in the village are very caring towards me. It makes me feel like I've returned to another home."
"Listen, these educated youth from the city know how to talk."
"Song Zhiqing, if you encounter any problems in the village, feel free to come to us and we will help you."
"Okay, then I'd like to thank you aunts first. I hope you won't think I'm too busy."
"You are so beautiful and capable, we like you so much, how could we dislike you?"
Just as Song Fuyu was chatting animatedly with the three aunts in the car, a discordant voice suddenly came from a distance, interrupting their good mood.
