"That family is full of ungrateful people. Be careful of them in the future." Yang Weihua also felt cold towards Qiao Chenglin's family.
Qiao Mo didn't know that the Yang family had such a big incident because of collecting rent from her. After eating the New Year's Eve dinner, they cleaned up the dishes and kitchen together, sat by the fireplace and chatted until midnight before going back to their rooms to rest.
But even if she knew, she would not feel guilty, but would be glad that Qiao Chengting could escape from the suffering as soon as possible. This is because according to the plot in the book, Yang Hansheng's tendency to domestic violence will become more and more serious. The year the master returned to the city, he beat Qiao Chengting seriously and broke one of her legs.
Qiao Chengting divorced Yang Hansheng with the support of her children. Now the divorce can not only save her a few years of suffering, but also allow her to keep her leg.
The next day is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Here, people pay attention to the first day being the son and the second day being the son. That day is the day for sons to pay New Year's greetings to their parents and it is also the day for children to visit each other's homes.
Qiao Mo and his friends were not locals, and the villagers were rather hostile to them. They did not need to go out to pay New Year's greetings, and there were no children visiting, so it was very quiet and leisurely. But they did not do anything else and continued to sit by the kitchen stove reading until Wu Daming came in the afternoon to break this pattern.
"Happy New Year." Wu Daming pushed the door open and saw the three of them sitting by the fireplace, each with a book. He thought to himself that if they were indeed educated youth, they would not forget to study even during the New Year.
"Happy New Year, come and sit down." Qiao Mo stood up to pour tea, while Han Yimo went to grab some candy and melon seeds. Kang Mingyuan asked him to sit down.
"Don't bother, I'd be so embarrassed if I didn't." Wu Daming sat down at the table and handed the food in his hand to Kang Mingyuan. "Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so I brought you some food. I hope you don't mind."
"You are too polite. We will accept it today. Don't do this in the future. Otherwise, it will seem distant." Seeing that it was just a few rice dumplings, Kang Mingyuan accepted it with a smile.
"I see. I saw that you didn't have any popcorn, so I brought some over for you to try." Wu Daming also nodded with a smile. He knew that these educated youths were in good conditions and had no shortage of food.
From that day on, Wu Daming came here every day to learn Donghai dialect with Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo until he left for Donghai. Qiao Mo continued with his own life. During the day, apart from cooking, he would stay in his room reading books and practicing "The Secret of Herbs and Trees". Of course, that's a story for later.
The leisurely days passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the fifth day of the first lunar month. Qiao Mo and two others went to the brigade to wish the brigade leader a happy new year. They didn't bring anything very good, just two bottles of Erguotou contributed by Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo, and a piece of cloth that Qiao Mo cut from those defective fabrics.
The captain's wife, Qiu Shuiai, was delighted when she saw the cloth and warmly invited them to dinner, but they declined. They just sat for a while, drank a cup of tea and left. Then they went to Accountant Wu's house, also known as Wu Daming's house. Aunt Wu had always been nice to Qiao Mo, and after knowing that they were going to teach their son Donghai dialect, she became even more enthusiastic towards them. Before leaving, she held Qiao Mo's hand and asked her to come and play often in the future.
Afterwards, I went to the home of the branch secretary and the team leader, but I just sat there for a while and had a cup of tea.
After visiting so many houses, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon when they returned to the educated youth site. Wu Daming had already been waiting there. Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo went to greet them, but Qiao Mo just greeted him and went back to the house to rest.
She hadn't been working during this period, so she would take a nap in bed for an hour at noon. Sometimes she would even stay in bed for two hours if she was lazy. Now, although the time had passed, she still wanted to go to bed and rest.
