"Ayan, this is the money and cloth coupons you usually give me. Go buy me some cloth that young girls like and I will make clothes for them."
"Grandma, I'll go buy it in two days. You take the money." Pei Yan didn't want to take the old woman's money. He knew what she was going to use the cloth for.
Grandma Dong insisted on giving the money. "Your money is your money. This is a little gift from grandma."
Pei Yan had no choice but to accept it.
He even formally told Grandma Dong that he and Xu Zhiyi were already together.
Grandma Dong likes Xu Zhiyi, otherwise she wouldn't deliberately provoke Pei Yan. Even though she is worried about the future of the two of them.
One is an educated youth who went to the countryside, and the other is a village kid. Can the two of them go far together?
She understood Pei Yan, he was stubborn, resolute and persistent. If she waited until he understood her feelings in the future, it would be such a pity if she missed the opportunity.
In order to leave no regrets, let the two young people explore their future on their own.
There is no point in thinking too much, you will only know if you keep going.
The open-minded and broad-minded Grandma Dong once had such a person in her mind.
Even though the happy time was only a few years, the decades of time have not worn away my love for that person.
Ayan is very similar to him.
They will be happy for a long time.
......
After the relationship between the two changed, nothing else was different.
The only difference is that Pei Yan visits Xu Zhiyi's house more frequently. Apart from the fact that the two families eat separately, they can meet every day.
When Xu Zhiyi was studying with Chu Jueming, she did not hide her relationship with Pei Yan.
It’s just that their location is remote, and when they work, they are all on different sides. After a long time, the people who talk about it naturally find it boring, and the discussion gradually fades away.
Of course, because this person is Xu Zhiyi, and everyone knows that she is not someone to be trifled with, no one dares to speak in front of the real person.
Besides, many people in the village still favor Xu Zhiyi.
Those who are talkative are all bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong.
The sky was evenly gray, and the silence of the earth deepened. The green land on the slope seemed to have taken off its clothes overnight, leaving only the scorched earth.
Hibernate.
There is less free time in winter, so people wear thicker clothes. For people who stay at home, the warmest place is the bed.
In the homes of hardworking people, they have been accumulating firewood throughout the autumn. There is a stove in the main room, and water is boiled in the stove.
Every household either gathered around the fire or stayed in bed.
Poor families don’t have thick winter clothes, so they can only go out as little as possible.
Even if you want to go out, you can wear five or six layers of clothes to keep out the cold wind, but it doesn't keep you warm.
As early as when Xu Zhiyi came to Xiangyang Village, Jiang's mother sent her winter clothes. In order to respect the winter, she still wrapped herself in thick clothes.
I specially bought a basket-sized earthenware basin, filled it with charcoal fire, and boiled red date flower tea on the iron net above, with a few chestnuts and sweet potatoes.
There was brown sugar cake and pork bun on the small plate next to it.
These were made by Pei Yan based on Xu Zhiyi's oral instructions, and the taste is exactly the same.
The small stove does not take up much space even when placed on a long table.
Reading, drinking tea and eating snacks, the day couldn't be more leisurely.
Xu Zhiyi was enjoying the leisure time at home alone when suddenly there was a knock on the yard door.
After Xu Zhiyi put down the book, he went to open the door.
The visitors were Gan Tiantian and Shen Zhaodi.
The two were bored staying at the educated youth camp, so they came to visit Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi came into the room and asked them to sit down.
"Wow~ Zhiyi, you are so lucky. You live such a comfortable life." Gan Tiantian was very envious.
"This little stove is really convenient. You just need to put charcoal in it. It can also make tea. It's great."
Xu Zhiyi poured each of them a cup of red date tea and said, "Hurry up and drink something hot to warm your stomach."
It's cold here, both inside and outside the house.
Xu Zhiyi has special abilities, so he naturally doesn't feel cold.
However, there is a kind of coldness that makes your partner feel that you are cold.
Grandma Dong made a light blue jacket that was warm and beautiful. She said that Pei Yan had found the cloth and cotton early in the morning and was waiting to send it to her after it was finished.
It is natural to accept the love from your partner.
When the weather got cold, I put it on and stayed indoors, not going anywhere. I studied medical books and textbooks, learning slowly.
Although there are still four years before the college entrance examination, if you read books every day to maintain your learning ability and develop a habit, you will be able to learn new things with ease.
Xu Zhiyi loves to learn, is very proactive, and is willing to take the initiative to learn. There is so much to learn from her.
Even though the textbooks were limited, she learned a lot from Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li in the cowshed.
University professors in this era are truly talented and knowledgeable. Xu Zhiyi has a lot to learn.
"Zhiyi, why are you still reading high school textbooks?" Gan Tiantian glanced at Xu Zhiyi's book.
"When you have nothing to do, just study. After all, what you learn is yours."
Sweet Dessert nodded, it’s true.
Shen Zhaodi eagerly read Xu Zhiyi's book. She had finally finished elementary school and missed junior high school, but her family no longer gave her money.
Let her go home to take care of her younger brother, be a member of the family, and wash clothes for everyone in the family.
If her family hadn't had a quota for educated youth to be sent down to the countryside, she might still be washing clothes in the icy river water.
"Zhiyi, can I take a look at your book?" Shen Zhaodi's eyes revealed a desire for knowledge.
"This is a high school Chinese textbook. Take it and have a look." Xu Zhiyi handed the book directly to Shen Zhaodi.
Shen Zhaodi put the cup of water a little further away, then carefully took the book and opened it to read.
Even if it was a Chinese textbook, the texts inside made Shen Zhaodi read with great interest.
Xu Zhiyi simply sent Gan Tiantian to find a book to read from the shelf while she started practicing calligraphy.
She had loved writing before the apocalypse. Whenever she felt upset or her work wasn't going well, she would practice calligraphy.
As you practice, you will be able to calm down.
With nothing to do this winter, the papers and books she found at the scrap yard are enough to keep her indoors all winter.
Of course, occasionally someone would take her out for a walk, calling it a stroll.
As they walked, the two got closer and closer. Pei Yan gradually moved closer and tentatively took Xu Zhiyi's hand.
As for holding hands, it was Xu Zhiyi who took the initiative the first time.
The innocent younger brother had no idea how to fall in love, so of course Xu Zhiyi taught him little by little.
Facts have proved that Pei Yan is a good student who loves to learn.
However, the current progress is still at the first step - holding hands.
Xu Zhiyi had zero practical experience, so of course he had to proceed slowly.
Whenever the two of them were alone together, Pei Yan would hold Xu Zhiyi's hand tightly.
The tips of the ears are red, and the corners of the mouth are turned up in a smile.
It is the warmth in winter, and it is a beautiful moment that Pei Yan can still recall many years later.
