Since autumn, there has been less work in the fields, so I don't have to go to work every day.
The Qin family members were also arranged in order of seniority.
Qin Chuan doesn't have to work today, but Yun Ling does, since she's the points recorder and has to register work points every day.
"Let Tian Tian go for you, I'll give her the money," Qin Chuan suggested.
The weather is just so nice today, with bright sunshine, perfect for going out and having fun.
"……May I?"
Yunling still had some expectations.
Qin Chuan got up, put on his clothes, and said, "I'll go tell them."
Yunling nodded with a smile.
Then she changed into a new set of clothes sent from home.
The colors are bright and eye-catching, not dull and gray.
After washing up, she tied her hair into two loose, casual braids that looked particularly lazy at first glance.
Looking at my clean and fair self in the mirror.
I want to wear makeup, but I can't.
She's been here for so long and has rarely seen girls wearing makeup and dressing up; they only dress up elaborately for their weddings.
"Third Sister-in-law, are you going to Moon Spring?" Qin Tiantian asked from the doorway.
Yunling nodded and said, "I've never soaked in a hot spring before."
Qin Tiantian: "It's very comfortable, especially warm."
She hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Third Sister-in-law, may I go with you?"
Yunling looked at Qin Chuan who was walking over, her eyes filled with doubt.
Qin Chuan explained, "Second sister-in-law will go in your place."
Then she said to Qin Tiantian, "Mom called you just now, it seems like something's wrong."
After Qin Tiantian walked away.
Qin Chuan then asked in a low voice, "Do you want Tian Tian to come with us?"
Yunling smiled and said, "Let's go together!"
These days, regulations are strict; two people going on a date can't stand too close together.
Qin Chuan was a man of few words.
Sweetie went along, and they could chat.
...
On the road.
Qin Chuan looked at the girl who was constantly clinging to his wife and chattering away.
I couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
I should have known better than to bring her.
He's no longer involved in anything.
He interjected, "When you come back, do you want to go up the mountain to pick chestnuts?"
"Third Brother, do you know where I can find one?" Qin Tiantian asked curiously.
In the areas on the mountain she knew, the chestnuts had already been picked clean.
Qin Chuan nodded.
Qin Tiantian said firmly, "Then let's go. Chestnuts can be used as food."
She went hungry when she was a child.
They don't want to miss out on even a single grain of food.
She would be heartbroken if she knew there were chestnuts left unpicked.
Qin Tiantian then looked at Yun Ling and said, "If you're tired, we can go another day."
Yunling nodded and said, "I'm fine with anything. I like roasted chestnuts; they're soft, chewy, and very sweet."
Qin Tiantian swallowed hard and said, "I know how to make it, but sugar is too expensive. I guess Mom won't let us use it."
Yunling once again lamented the scarcity of resources in this era.
Everything is missing.
Everything is rare to me.
All she could say was, "It'll be better later."
She does have brown sugar.
But I don't dare use it.
Qin Tiantian blinked and said, "But a few days ago, Mom said that we'll kill a chicken for the New Year, and we can put some chestnuts in it. That would be delicious."
Yunling's eyes lit up, and she said, "Really?"
Qin Tiantian scratched her head and said, "That's what Mom said, but when it comes to the New Year, she might feel bad and not want to kill a chicken."
She looked at Qin Chuan, blinked, and said, "Third Brother, you and your eldest and second brothers can secretly kill him. Mother can't just quit, anyway, it's not good if there's an old hen laying eggs."
Qin Chuan glanced at her, speechless, and said, "You really are my good sister."
If his mother forbids killing chickens and he kills one on his own, she will definitely beat him.
Qin Tiantian raised her chin and said matter-of-factly, "Hehe! Who told you to be my brother?"
Qin Chuan flicked her on the forehead and said, "I've been so good to you, how can you go back and instigate your other two brothers?"
Qin Tiantian pouted and said, "Big brother is too honest. I would feel guilty if I tricked him. Second brother is too cunning. I'm afraid he will trick me."
Her most vivid childhood memory is of her older brother secretly slipping her something every time.
Before long, her second brother had managed to coax half of her away.
Qin Tiantian laughed and said in a cheerful voice, "So the best solution is for all three brothers to work together to trick us."
She snapped her fingers crisply.
Yunling was even a little envious.
She had wanted an older brother since she was a child.
She does have an older brother now, but she feels guilty and doesn't dare to contact him.
Qin Chuan noticed Yun Ling's envious look and, thinking he was ignoring her, changed the subject, starting to talk about how he discovered the chestnut tree.
The group chatted and laughed as they arrived at Qingshan Brigade.
Walking in the middle of the group, many people greeted Qin Chuan.
"Yunling." A clear female voice sounded from behind.
Yunling turned around and saw a slender girl with braided pigtails.
She paused for a moment, then realized what she meant and called out, "Su Qing."
"I thought you didn't recognize me anymore," Su Qing ran over and hugged Yun Ling tightly, her voice trembling with tears.
Yunling patted her trembling back and said with a smile, "How could that be? We've known each other for so many years, I'd recognize you even if you turned to ashes."
Su Qing burst into laughter through her tears and said, "Anyone who didn't know better would think you hated me a lot."
She looked up at Qin Chuan and asked with a smile, "Is this your husband?"
Yunling smiled and nodded, then introduced a few people to her.
After a round of laughter and conversation, Su Qing calmed down and asked, "Where are you going? To Moon Spring?"
Yunling said, "Yes, I've never been to a hot spring before."
Su Qing took Yun Ling's arm and said, "It's like I've been there before. I've been to the countryside for so long, and I've only been there once."
She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Can I come with you?"
There was a hint of trepidation in her voice.
Since she was Yunling's friend, she naturally had the final say. Qin Chuan and Qin Tiantian both looked at Yunling.
Before Yunling could speak, Su Qing said nervously, "I have something to tell you."
Yunling smiled and said, "Alright then! Let's all go together, and you can lead the way."
"Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll go back and get my things."
As soon as Su Qing finished speaking, she dashed away.
Qin Tiantian blinked and asked, "Is she the girl who tried to persuade you to go to the countryside?"
It doesn't look that bad!
Perhaps there's something wrong with his brain.
Normal people will avoid going to the countryside if they can avoid it.
Yunling said, "My deskmate in junior and senior high school, our relationship... was okay."
The original owner of this body acted impulsively, and under Su Qing's persuasion, wanted to go to the countryside to make a name for herself and show her family that she was capable.
As a result, I regretted it on my first day in the countryside.
The living conditions were terrible, working in the fields was extremely tiring, and the money earned was meager.
It also emits light and heat.
As long as I'm alive, that's enough.
