When Wen Nan returned, he arrived at Lianhua Village carrying large and small bags.
All the villagers' eyes were on Wen Nan, who was carrying large and small bags.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Madam Wen's family is really rich; they've bought quite a lot of chickens, ducks, and fish."
That's what they said, but everyone was really jealous and envious.
Lianhua Village is the poorest village in the surrounding area. Families there can't even afford meat. But Wen Nan is carrying large bags of pork, live chickens, and several sets of new clothes.
Everyone was incredibly envious.
Wen Nan returned to the thatched hut. It was afternoon, but it wasn't dark yet. Lu Yanqing was still at the school and hadn't returned. Lu Yanqing had to drive the oxcart, and since it got dark early in winter, he wouldn't be back until around 11:00 AM.
Wen Nan built a fence with wooden planks and put one of the hens she had bought inside the fence.
We'll raise them first. We bought a lot of meat and vegetables, but we can't let them sit. We'll raise the chickens first, and then slaughter them to nourish Lu Yanqing's body after we finish eating the vegetables.
While it was still early, Wen Nan bought a set of tools, chopped down a small tree behind the house, and then used an axe to cut it into pieces of wood.
He nailed up all the broken doors and windows. Climbing onto the roof, Lu Yanqing, whose legs were weak, cleaned the ground.
However, it was indeed somewhat difficult for Lu Yanqing to climb up the roof.
The house had never been repaired, so Wen Nan used nails and wooden blocks to patch up all the holes in the house.
The door is fixed now, it's very sturdy, and it won't make any more noise.
Wen Nan's gaze fell on the wall again. When she had almost finished repairing the wall, there was only a hole the size of a dog hole left. She was about to fill it all in.
But suddenly, an alarm sounded in Wen Nan's mind.
[Beep beep, target is in danger.] 859's mechanical voice sounded.
Wen Nan put down the tools in her hand, her brows furrowed.
"Is Mercury retrograde about to begin?" Wen Nan tidied her things and looked at her newly repaired home. There was still a hole in the wall that hadn't been patched up.
The hen in the yard clucked.
[Lu Yanqing's essay was praised by the teacher today. Zhang Ruyu, the young master of the Zhang family, looked down on Lu Yanqing, so he deliberately plotted to make Lu Yanqing miss the oxcart back to the village. If he had been outside in the cold all night, his thin cloak would have killed him.]
895 is emotionally neutral, simply describing the events from beginning to end.
Wen Nan looked up at the sky. She had been busy for a long time, and the sky was dark and gloomy.
Lu Yanqing should have been back by this time.
Wen Nan didn't care about anything else; she went inside and grabbed the thick cloak she had just bought for Lu Yanqing at the market that day.
He stormed out the door.
...
Lu Yanqing had packed his things, including his books, and left school. The teacher and classmates had all left.
Lu Yanqing was the last to leave, and had just reached the corner.
An honest-looking classmate ran into Lu Yanqing.
"Are you Lu Yanqing?" the man asked.
Lu Yanqing nodded, carrying his bundle.
"Master Li said your article is very well written. He couldn't sleep and wants to talk to you about something now. He'll be waiting for you at his workstation." After saying this, the male classmate left.
Lu Yanqing glanced at the sky. Teacher Li was the best teacher for Lu Yanqing in the elegant academy; the other teachers only cared about the students' family conditions.
But only Master Li was a master who was obsessed with reading.
It wasn't uncommon for Master Li to have long talks with him all night long.
Lu Yanqing had no doubts and went to Master Li's private office.
Seeing that there were still candles lit inside, Lu Yanqing had even less doubt.
Lu Yanqing, leaning on his cane, walked to the door with the light on and knocked on the wooden door.
