Song Tanglan knew that she couldn't vent her anger on others. After all, Zhou Xiaoli did seem a little abnormal. Her second sister had said before that this person was like a dog-skin plaster. She didn't understand what people said, and even if you explained it clearly, she would still come up to her shamelessly.
Fortunately, I don’t live in the Youth League Home, otherwise my life would be even more difficult than my second sister’s before.
Seeing that the little girl was really not angry with him, Xu Qi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly helped her pull out the weeds.
As soon as the bell rang, it was time to go home for lunch. Song Tanglan looked at the aunts who were walking home one after another, and then he began to shake his legs to relax his numb legs.
Xu Qi watched the little girl kicking her legs from time to time, and helplessly reached out his hand to pull her up.
Then they slowly walked home, and Song Tanglan explained the situation to Xu Qi on the way.
She had lunch with Su Tao and the others. Although adding one more person wouldn't be a big deal, their relationship wasn't that close after all, so she did it to avoid embarrassment for them.
Song Tanglan could only reject Xu Qi who was reluctant to leave.
"I can cook for you."
"No, it's not good to know that we're alone. By the way, do you need food for dinner at your eldest sister's house? If you didn't bring any today, I can go back and get it for you."
"No need, I eat at my eldest sister's house from time to time, and she always sends food over at the end of the month or the end of the year." Although Xu Qi was rejected by the little girl, he couldn't help feeling sweet when he saw that the little girl cared about him.
When Song Tanglan heard this, he nodded, waved to him, and came to Su Tao's house. Seeing that Su Tao was washing vegetables, he hurried over to help.
"Lanlan, I haven't finished eating the pumpkins you gave me last year. How about we have pumpkin multi-grain pancakes for lunch today?"
"Okay, I'll help you peel it."
"Okay, I'll take it out. You can peel it there. Be careful."
Su Tao pointed to a small pumpkin not far away. This pumpkin was enough for the four of them to eat.
Logically speaking, food is in short supply now. If the team knew that they wasted pumpkin peels, they would probably scold them for a long time. However, even after so much time, they still couldn't get used to eating them.
The pumpkin skin is really hard and doesn't taste very good.
"Okay." Song Tanglan took a knife and peeled the pumpkin bit by bit. After Su Tao finished washing the vegetables and started to make the batter, Song Tanglan also successfully peeled the pumpkin, cut it into pieces and put it in the pot to steam.
In addition to the two of them, there were two other male educated youth helping in the kitchen.
With the help of four people, the meal was ready in no time.
Looking at the pumpkin cake that was so delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, Song Tanglan really enjoyed it. The cake also had the sweetness of pumpkin inside.
This made the four of them very happy. They finished their lunch in no time and then said goodbye and went home to take a nap.
In the afternoon, Xu Qi came to help Song Tanglan weed just like he did in the morning. With his participation, Song Tanglan got a rare full work score and was able to leave work early.
Cheng Fangyuan originally wanted to finish his work and help so that he could go back and pack his luggage earlier. He didn't expect that his younger sister didn't need him, so someone else came to help.
Seeing this, he didn't say anything more and went home first.
After all, he had a lot of luggage to pack, so three packages were changed into two large packages. For this reason, he tested the weight and found that he could still accept it.
So they decided to take another package and put more food in it to take back to the city.
Anyway, there will be a ox cart to take them to the train station, and the eldest brother of the Song family will come to pick them up after they get off the train, so there is no need to worry about not being able to get it.
When Cheng Fangyuan returned home, he went to the cellar first, selected the grains, and put them into cloth bags one by one.
After everything was packed, they put it into the package, and placed the clothes of the three members of their family around the food.
After everything is ready, we start packaging.
Song Tanglan felt much happier seeing that it was a rare opportunity to get off work so early.
At least when you walk on the street and see others working, you can still walk leisurely. This kind of pleasure can only be felt by experiencing it personally.
No wonder Su Tao was so happy every time she got off work early.
Xu Qi looked at the little girl in a very good mood and smiled helplessly, but he had to go to the valley to take a look, after all, there were still some things that had not been dealt with.
Looking at the little girl's peaceful smile, he suddenly felt reluctant to let her go. After all, she would be taking the train back to the city to visit her relatives tomorrow, and they would be separated for a month.
"Alan, I have something to do later."
"Then just go. I can go back by myself." Song Tanglan didn't understand why this person was so conflicted.
"Don't you miss me? We're going to be apart for the next month!"
Xu Qi looked at the watch on the little girl's wrist and wanted to reach out and touch it, but since they were outside, he didn't dare to do anything too much.
"It's 25 days. It's just a short separation, it will pass in the blink of an eye. Besides, I'm going to the train station tomorrow, won't you come to see me off? So why should I be reluctant now?"
Song Tanglan now wished he would leave quickly because he was too clingy. At noon, he even said that he would take her to the train station tomorrow.
Besides, we will separate tomorrow. If I can't bear to leave now, isn't it too early?
Xu Qi looked at the little girl explaining confidently, and reached out to touch her head helplessly.
In the end, Xu Qi sent the little girl back to her home. At this time, he also forgot about Xiao Zhu who was waiting for him in the valley.
…
"The boss hasn't come yet. Didn't he say he would come this afternoon? I've been waiting for him for an hour."
Uncle Sun looked at his hurried appearance and said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's still early!"
