After hearing his words, Xue Ling smiled shyly and continued to chew on the buns in his hand.

It turned out that I had misunderstood!

He didn't want to spend her money, and he didn't deliberately keep a distance from himself.

I was in a good mood, and the buns in my hand tasted delicious!

The two of them were chatting while eating.

"You fell asleep last night. I didn't dare to hear too loudly when I entered the door, for fear of waking you up. Afang has been taught a lesson by my father and I. Next, she has to stay at home to help prepare winter food and go to the cooperative in a month.

.”

Xue Ling's eyes hesitated and asked nervously: "My sister-in-law... she hasn't gotten along with that scumbag yet?"

Cheng Tianyuan understood her worries and shook his head lightly.

"Luckily she wasn't so stupid. Last night she honestly told me, saying that she was just talking, helping him clean the house, listening to what poems he read, nothing else."

Hearing this, Xue Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did you ask the president last night?"

Cheng Tianyuan replied: "Ask carefully, and said, don't let Afang be young. They will have to go back to the county town in half a month. If it is a good marriage, then you can fight for it. But they have to leave in half a month, don't

I was deceived by someone when I was young and ignorant.”

Xue Ling thought about it and felt that the president was in the cooperative every day and should be a person who knew him.

Since he advised him like this, his sister-in-law shouldn't have suffered a big loss.

"I pretended not to know anything for a while, said goodbye to my parents, and then we would go back to the city."

My sister-in-law didn't have a good attitude towards her. She had just passed the door and didn't have much contact with her. It's better not to ask too much, so my sister-in-law won't hold a grudge against her.

Cheng Tianyuan nodded and said warmly: "There is still time, you can eat more."

After eating rice porridge and buns, the couple quickly packed up and brought them back to the kitchen.

It was still bright at this time, and the autumn wind was whistling, and there was already a clear sense of coldness.

Cheng Tianyuan took the duffel bag, took Xue Ling to say goodbye to Cheng's father and Liu Ying, and set off in a hurry.

Xue Ling looked at the heavy sandbag and couldn't help asking: "Brother Yuan, what's here? Didn't you say there are only buns? Why are there so many? Didn't my mother accept the things we brought yesterday?"

Cheng Tianyuan grinned and replied: "Mom refused to accept it. I said you bought a lot of it so that they can eat it in winter. Here are the cabbage and radish collected from the field."

Seeing that he was a little breathless, Xue Ling guessed that he must have pretended a lot.

"What are you so greedy to do? The place we live is so close to the market that you can buy whatever you want at any time. So much is made - we will break even if we can't finish it!"

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and glanced at her and explained: "These are all grown by our own home, which are very sweet and delicious. I plan to pickle some of the cabbage and radish to make side dishes. You can eat them occasionally and change the taste."

Xue Ling couldn't help but smile and praised: "You still know this? It's amazing!"

Cheng Tianyuan was amused by her and explained: "What's the difficulty! Every household in the village does this way, otherwise what to eat in winter! The vegetables here are grown by their own homes. The snow is buried thickly in winter, and there is no need to eat in the ground.

After scraping it up, some are hidden in the cellar, and some are pickled. The pickled vegetables can be eaten for a long time, and most of them have to be eaten until the spring of the following year."

Xue Ling has lived in the imperial capital since she became sensible. Her mother goes to the market to buy vegetables every morning. Except for pickling some pickles by chance, she eats fresh food for all three meals, so there is no such concept.

"Okay! Then I will help you when I go back, and you can take the opportunity to teach me!"

Cheng Tianyuan nodded and agreed readily.

"no problem!"

During the time of speaking, the two of them had already walked to the entrance of the village.

Xue Ling only took his own oblique bag, but Cheng Tianyuan carried two large gauze bags, but he was strong and strong, so he even walked faster than Xue Ling.

Suddenly, a clattering sound came from behind!

"Ayuan! Ayuan's wife!" a loud voice shouted.

The young couple turned their heads and saw Chang Bo running over in a donkey cart.

He should be going out, and there was a large basket of cabbage and a dustpan of coix seed on the donkey cart.

He stopped the donkey cart and smiled honestly.

"I'm about to go to the city! The station is still a bit far away, I'll take you there!"

Cheng Tianyuan didn't be polite to him, so he threw two big bags on it and helped Xue Ling sit on it.

Xue Ling kept thanking him and said it was too troublesome to the old man.

Chang Bo grinned, his teeth were black and he was missing three large front teeth.

"No trouble! No trouble! I often carry some things to the county town to sell. I collected too much cabbage a few days ago, so I planned to sell one more basket."

Xue Ling looked at the dustpan of barley, and saw that the color was very good and each one was full, so she couldn't help but reach out to pinch a few.

"Changbo, is this coix seed going to be sold?"

Chang Bo, who was driving the bus in front of him, explained: "My wife likes to eat and has planted a lot. I have bad teeth, so I always like to stuff this thing. I plan to leave only one bag for her to eat and sell the others. ”

Seeing her staring at the coix seed, Cheng Tianyuan couldn't help but ask, "What? Do you like to eat?"

Xue Ling smiled softly and explained: "I love eating it very much. A few days ago, I heard Editor Lin say that she wanted to buy coix seed, but unfortunately she couldn't buy it. She said that several children in her family like to eat it."

When Cheng Tianyuan heard that she loved to eat, he quickly paid for the winnowing basket and barley.

...

Originally, there were a lot of things, and with about ten kilograms of coix seed, the luggage became heavier.

Fortunately, Changbo's donkey cart was fast, and they arrived at the station a little early and were at the front of the line.

When the car came, Cheng Tianyuan threw all the things into the car before turning around and leading Xue Ling.

More than half an hour later, the two got off at the county station.

Cheng Tianyuan looked at the big bell at the big station and said, "It's only 7:30, it's not too late."

Then, he sent two big bags in the grocery store outside the station, and then took Xue Ling to work first.

Xue Ling thought he would be late, but unexpectedly, he was the first person to work in the entire newspaper.

Before going to work, she secretly divided half of the coix seed to Editor-in-Chief Lin.

When Editor-in-Chief Lin saw that the coix seed was round and big, he asked with a smile: "Where did you get the good coix seed? Where did you buy it?"

Xue Ling's eyes turned lightly and explained: "What I planted and ate at home is not bought. Not much, I will keep half of it, I will give you this half."

Editor-in-chief Lin is kind and takes good care of her as a newcomer. Why not take this opportunity to thank her.

"This... is so embarrassed!" Editor-in-chief Lin laughed and refused.

Xue Ling smiled and said, "The coix seed grown by my own home is delicious. I brought about ten kilograms when I went back to my in-laws' house. There is nothing good in the countryside, all the vegetables and grains grown in my own fields. My husband and I can't eat so much, so it's not a valuable thing. , Sister Lin, don’t be polite.”

Editor-in-chief Lin was very happy to accept it when she heard what she said.

"Then thank you!"

At this time, Liu Xing looked very unpleasant and walked out of Deputy Director Zhen's office, lay on the desk, sighing and not moving.

Xue Ling whispered in surprise: "What's wrong?"
