Soon it was evening, and Zhang Guihua gave everyone a potato and a sweet potato as dinner.
After Yunling finished eating, she was still a little hungry, so she made two cups of malted milk powder, one for herself and one for Qin Chuan. The taste was bland and not as good as milk.
However, she still finished it; wasting food is unacceptable these days.
After finishing the malted milk powder, she continued to eat sunflower seeds.
Qin Tiantian gave them pumpkin seeds instead of sunflower seeds. They were a bit hard, and the kernels were difficult to crack open.
But it's so boring.
Looking at Qin Chuan, who was casually flipping through a book to the side, he asked, "Aren't you bored?"
Qin Chuan shook his head.
Yunling continued to sigh.
She can't live without her phone in modern times; she even takes it with her when she goes to the bathroom.
My biggest feelings after coming here are poverty, hardship, boredom, and general dissatisfaction.
Qin Chuan felt a little sorry for Yun Ling when he saw her listless appearance. Knowing that she liked to hear gossip, he took the initiative to start talking about it.
Yunxi Brigade is a village formed by people fleeing famine. Everyone knows each other well and they are all familiar with each other's situations.
Qin Chuan then started talking about things from the past.
For example, the neighbor Aunt Zhao was always arguing with his mother.
After listening to the gossip for an hour, as if watching a movie, Yunling went to sleep contentedly.
The next morning, I was woken up by the sound of voices outside the window.
She opened the window; it wasn't raining outside, but the sun wasn't out either.
"Third Sister-in-law, are you going to pick mushrooms on the mountain?" Qin Tiantian asked excitedly as she stood in the yard.
Her favorite activity is picking mushrooms in the mountains after the rain.
It feels like digging for treasure.
“Go!” Yunling said decisively.
She had never picked mushrooms in the mountains before, but she had watched some mushroom picking videos.
Very interesting.
After dinner, the whole family went up the mountain together.
Yunling, carrying a small basket, walked ahead happily.
It was like a primary school students going on a field trip.
When we got down to the foot of the mountain, we found that there were quite a few people picking mushrooms today, including many familiar faces.
The educated youth also came.
Yunling didn't recognize mushrooms; she only knew that most brightly colored ones were poisonous.
She dared not pick them indiscriminately.
Every time I saw a mushroom, I would ask the people around me about it.
She has a good memory; she remembers almost everything that has been asked.
After asking many questions, I recognized almost all kinds of mushrooms.
Picking mushrooms became even easier for me.
It had just rained, so the mountain road was slippery and easy to fall.
Qin Tiantian and Qin Chuan were by her side, and they would help her up every time she was about to fall.
Fang Yuyan wasn't so lucky. She had a rather irritable temper and didn't watch where she was going, so she fell several times.
Her cries of pain could be heard every now and then.
When Chen Rong saw Fang Yuyan fall flat on her face again, she couldn't help but laugh and kindly advised, "Fang Zhiqing, be careful so you don't fall again."
She spoke so sincerely.
If Fang Yuyan hadn't seen the mocking look in her eyes, she would have believed it.
"None of your business. It's better than you, an unmarried young woman, being all tangled up with a man."
If no man had helped her up, she might have fallen even more badly than she did!
How dare you laugh at her now?
Tian Gang frowned and said with disgust, "Fang Yuyan, Chen Zhiqing was just concerned about you, that's why he reminded you. How can you be so ungrateful and turn around and smear Chen Zhiqing?"
Tian Gang, who had helped Chen Rong up several times, said righteously, "Revolutionary comrades should help each other. It's not as sordid as you think."
Fang Yuyan gave a mocking smile, pointed at Chen Rong, and asked, "Don't you have any feelings for her?"
She couldn't stand Chen Rong's pretentious and manipulative manner.
“That’s a different matter,” Tian Gang immediately retorted. “Chen Zhiqing is gentle, generous, excellent, and ambitious. What’s wrong with me pursuing her? Am I supposed to pursue a tomboy like you?”
He looked at Fang Yuyan with a look of disgust as he said he wanted it.
She has absolutely no womanly qualities.
Calling her a tomboy is not an exaggeration at all.
Zhao Chunyu nudged Song Chi next to her and asked curiously, "Didn't they just write their self-criticisms yesterday?"
She was very curious.
You've made such a big fool of yourself, aren't you afraid of losing face?
Song hesitated and said, "...shameless."
Jiang Fan nodded in agreement.
He thought himself very knowledgeable, but now he realizes he was just a frog in a well.
It turns out there are men like Tian Gang in the world.
He was completely manipulated by a woman, unwittingly becoming a knife in her hand.
It's so scary!
He would rather not get married than marry a terrible woman like Chen Rong.
Of course, Fang Yuyan was not in his consideration either; she was too noisy.
Everyone else was used to the noisy bunch.
Listening intently to gossip didn't slow down their mushroom-picking speed at all.
Qin Tiantian, however, was a little curious.
This was the first time she had ever seen such a scene.
They were staring at it intently.
Fang Yuyan was furious and said irritably, "Do you really think I'd be interested in you? Who gave you that confidence? You're clearly so..."
She had an expression that suggested she couldn't bear to look at her.
Tian Gang wasn't angry. Instead, he asked, "If you're not interested in talking to me, why do you keep trying to talk to me?"
He raised an eyebrow.
Fang Yuyan was speechless and said, "Is that talking? It's clearly arguing. Besides, it's always me and Chen Rong talking. You always have to jump out of my way and say that I'm bullying her. You're so blind, only an idiot would fall for you."
She glanced at Chen Rong, who was smirking to herself, and said in a light voice, "I bet even your educated youth Chen wouldn't be interested in you, otherwise why would he keep walking you around?"
