"No, I just went out for a walk." Qiao Mo shook his head. In order to avoid complications, he did not tell others about Kang Mingyuan and the others' departure. In order to prepare food for them, Qiao Mo told Tang Xinmei before going to bed last night.
Although Tang Xinmei was surprised, she didn't say anything else except congratulating them on their arrival in Donghai.
"Momo, do you think we should eat together just by the two of us, or with Chen Ran and the others?" Tang Xinmei asked what she had been thinking about all night.
"You want to team up with them?" Qiao Mo looked at her in surprise.
"I think you'd be too tired if it's just the two of us." Tang Xinmei thought of the time when Kang Mingyuan and the others went to Lingyun Mountain. Qiao Mo, a girl, had to fetch water and chop wood. It was really too tiring, but she couldn't help her much, so she thought about whether she should team up with Chen Ran and the other two.
"Sister Xinmei, do you feel tired of cooking every day?" Qiao Mo asked back. It was not a big deal for her. She just had to fetch water and chop firewood. There were two of them and it wouldn't be much, so she just did it casually.
"I'm fine." Tang Xinmei shook her head. It was just a meal for two people, so it wouldn't take too long.
"Then let's not form a partnership. After all, there are more troubles when there are more people. It's good for us to get along like this now, so as to avoid conflicts and affect our relationship." Qiao Mo thought for a while and said, Chen Ran and others are all good people, but good people may not necessarily live in harmony together.
"You're right. Let's do this, but I'll fetch the water. Otherwise, you'll have to fetch water and chop wood at the same time, which is too tiring." Tang Xinmei also nodded.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Qiao Mo nodded. Although Tang Xinmei's physical strength was not very good, after such a long period of training, it should be no problem for her to carry two loads of water a day. If she really couldn't do it, it wouldn't be too late for her to help.
"Now there is only one chicken and one goose. I don't know if they will feel lonely." Tang Xinmei sighed again.
"Sister Xinmei, I didn't expect you to be so melancholic." Qiao Mo chuckled. She killed a chicken and a goose last night, and made braised chicken and roast goose respectively. After chopping them up, she packed them in lunch boxes for Kang Mingyuan and the others to eat on the road.
"No, I was just wondering why you killed one of the same species. Why not kill two of the same species?"
"I just wanted to keep one for laying eggs." Qiao Mo didn't think as much as she thought. "I also kept half a roast goose for our lunch."
Because the weather was too hot, Qiao Mo was afraid that it would go bad, so he only packed half a roast goose for them: Although Kang Mingyuan and the others all had storage beads, there were so many people on the train that using them rashly would only bring endless trouble.
"It's just right. I've never eaten roast goose before." Tang Xinmei was no longer sad when she heard that there was something delicious.
After dinner, the two of them went out and met up with other educated youth to go to the sun-drying field.
Chen Ran didn't look at Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo, but walked up to Qiao Mo and asked quietly, "Why didn't Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo come out to work?"
"They left." Qiao Mo also answered in a low voice, "They were afraid that the news would leak out and Li Changhe would embarrass them, so they didn't tell anyone. We only found out last night."
