No one dared to approach, but a little girl pulled her companion to sit next to Gu Rong, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Gu Rong with admiration.
Originally, everyone was present and they should have set off back to the village, but Gu Rong and Gu Jiazhen's actions delayed their packing time.
Otherwise, if Gu Jiazhen were covered in poop and sat next to others, it would affect their mood.
After it was done, it was more than half an hour later than scheduled.
The road back to the village is long, so we can only shorten our rest time along the way.
With A-Xi by her side, Gu Rong was already mentally prepared that they wouldn't arrive until four or five in the afternoon.
Others, unaware of the discomfort, swayed on the oxcart and inevitably complained.
Han Zhengguo also knew that the journey would take five or six hours, and he would definitely get impatient.
But we've already wasted time, and if we don't make up for it, traveling in the dark will be even more dangerous.
Although we were on a long journey, it was still good to rest for a while and feel a little more comfortable.
At lunchtime, those who had their own dry rations ate their own, while those who didn't ate the cornbread they brought, which was considered a treat from the village.
Everyone still had some food on them, but none of them had any of those dark cornbread buns.
Gu Rong has no other flaws, except that she loves to eat.

"Uncle Zhengguo, Uncle Zhengquan, this food of mine has been sitting for a few days and it's going to spoil if I don't eat it soon. Please eat it for me."
The two arrived yesterday. The commune paid for their lodging, but only gave them two cents per meal for food and drink. Apart from buying a few steamed buns, they couldn't buy anything else.
They were reluctant to spend their own money and wanted to save it, so they ate cornbread brought from the village.
Having not eaten properly for two days, the two unconsciously swallowed when they smelled the aroma of Gu Rong's sesame seed cakes.
As the village party secretary, how could he accept food from the villagers? Han Zhengguo refused, saying, "No, you can eat it yourselves. We'll just have cornbread."
"Take these as a thank you gift for telling me about my brother's situation," Gu Rong said without saying another word, stuffing the sesame cakes into their hands and then turning to walk to the side.
The things that others brought, and which are still extant, are mostly steamed buns or dry rations.
The aroma of Gu Rong's sesame cakes made several people's mouths water.
But what Gu Rong had just done made the group of people afraid to approach, lest they be fed...
