Song Yingwan sat up without saying a word. After learning the lesson just now, she stretched out her hands and tightly grasped the clothes at his waist, and she honestly didn't dare to move any more.
Afterwards, she got her wish and found out what that 'passed life' was about.
Ma Xiangyang grew up without a father or a mother. He grew up with his grandfather. When he gets old, he will always suffer from some diseases. In order to make money, he accidentally came into contact with the black market. After tasting the benefits, he jumped in. However, he does have this talent. With his unique skills and abilities, he has become famous in just a few years, and others will call him brother when they see him.
At that time, Xie Ci had just gone to the countryside for a few days and didn't know much about the commune. He accidentally went around a small alley and happened to encounter Ma Xiangyang being chased and intercepted. The people chasing him were a group of Red Guards. Xie Ci didn't care about these people. He didn't have a good impression, so he saved him.
Later I found out that Ma Xiangyang was betrayed by his brother, which was why he was in this situation today.
Ma Xiangyang is a person who values affection and justice, and he has an extraordinary manner in thanking him. After spending so many years in the black market, he knew from the first glance that this person was by no means a thing in the pool, and he also had the intention of making friends with him. , otherwise he wouldn't be so devoted to Xie Ci. If it was just because he saved him once, he wouldn't have to do this.
But after so many contacts, it turned out that Ma Xiangyang's original choice was indeed correct. Xie Ci never owed favors to others, and sometimes he would give him a few words, which was enough for Ma Xiangyang to make a small profit.
Speaking of which, the two of them actually have a trading relationship now. Ma Xiangyang provides convenience to Xie Ci, and Xie Ci provides him with new ideas. They each have their own needs.
Song Yingwan sighed after hearing this. She couldn't do any of this work, so she should just grow vegetables at home.
When the two of them were approaching the village, Song Yingwan was sitting in the back and saw a tall man walking on the road in front of her from a distance. She was holding a bag in his hand. She felt a little familiar inexplicably.
However, the sky was already a little dark at this time, and she could not see clearly. When Xie Ci rode by the man on his bicycle, Song Yingwan finally saw his face clearly, it was Liu Qingshan.
Neither she nor Xie Ci had ever interacted with him, so naturally they didn't meet him enough to say hello. Soon the two groups of people distanced themselves, heading towards Liujia Village.
But it was only October now, and it was too early to come back to celebrate the New Year. Song Yingwan only felt doubtful in her heart for a moment, and then left him behind in the next second. She should think about what to eat tonight.
After arriving home, Xie Ci first brought the things he bought into the house and brought an orange to Song Yingwan for her to sit there and eat while he sorted out the items he bought today.
Song Yingwan smiled helplessly, but she gradually got used to the feeling of being taken care of by him. After peeling the orange in her hand, she stuffed a piece into her mouth, and then fed him another mouthful.
This orange must have been grown by the villagers themselves. It is not big in size, tastes sour and sweet, and has a pretty good taste.
He also bought a bag of apples, which seemed to be in good condition and quite fresh. They must have been shipped from outside, and the ones grown at home would not grow so big.
After the two of them finished eating the small orange, they started to prepare dinner. It was already dark by this time. Xie went outside to pick vegetables for tonight's meal and closed the door when he came back.
After entering the end of October, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the seasonal vegetables in the vegetable garden have also come to an end. At this time, it is necessary to pick the vegetables that are still tender, otherwise they will grow old before eating. .
Some vegetables can be dried in the sun and stored until winter without any problem. These vegetables don't look like much, but they are enough for Song Yingwan and Xie Ci to keep busy for two days.
After picking them, they need to be washed, and some need to be blanched in water, and then dried or pickled in the sun.
The sun during this period is not bad, it can be dried in about a week, and then it can be stored in a dry place.
Song Yingwan was going to cut pig grass that day, and she happened to meet Xu Xiuyu on the road. She was holding a cloth bag in her hand and seemed to be heading towards the entrance of the village.
"Sister Xiuyu, aren't you going to work today?"
When Xu Xiuyu heard the voice and turned around to see Song Yingwan, she responded, "I have something to go to the commune today, so I asked the captain for a day off."
Song Yingwan was a little surprised when she heard this. In fact, she had never seen Xu Xiuyu asking for leave since she went to the countryside. When she was still in the educated youth camp, she was seen working at the educated youth camp and in the field every day. Sometimes she went When they were in the commune, they would ask her to come with them, thinking that it would be good to go out for some fresh air, but Xu Xiuyu refused every time and just smiled and asked them to have fun.
At first, Song Yingwan thought that her condition might not be very good, so she worked so hard and didn't dare to take a break for a day, but later she found that Xu Xiuyu was not in a tight situation in terms of life, and she never had the things she needed to buy. She would treat herself badly, so Song Yingwan thought that she might just like to be alone, and would rarely ask her to come with him in the future.
Song Yingwan walked over and held her arm and said, "Since it's hard to go there once, let's have a good time and don't forget to go home in the afternoon."
Xu Xiuyu curved her mouth and said in a soft voice, "Okay, I understand."
Knowing that she was going to the commune by donkey cart, Song Yingwan was afraid of wasting her time, so he stopped chatting with her, "Then go quickly, I have to cut the pig grass."
Xu Xiuyu, "Hey, okay, is there anything you need my help with?"
"No, I don't need anything."
"Okay, then I'll leave first."
As soon as Liu Qingshan came back, his legend began to spread again in the village, but this time there were some bad voices mixed in. Some people said that he made mistakes in the army and was kicked back this time. Others said that he was on a mission. I was injured when I was there and would never get better for the rest of my life. I won’t leave this time when I come back.
However, the lame Liu family kept their mouths shut and did not reveal a single word to the outside world, so everyone was still dubious about these messages, but it did not stop the villagers from watching the fun.
Sometimes this is the case, the people who add icing on the cake and add insult to injury may be the same people. After all, there will be imbalance if there is a gap, and few people really want you to improve step by step.
When Song Yingwan found out about this incident, she heard it from Aunt Guihua. She lamented, "Cripple Liu's family is quite good. It's not easy since he started singing. Don't let this happen again."
Then he added, "But I saw the child from Qingshan two days ago. He has good arms and legs. It's fine. Besides, the child is also capable. Even if he retires from the army, his family will not be able to live well in the future. sad."
Sister-in-law Hongying also responded, "Qingshan is quite filial and has good character." She paused and looked at Aunt Guihua and then said, "It's time for him to get married, right?"
