Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the purchasing power of the city dwellers was not as strong as before. Song Shuangshuang and a few others discussed it and decided to use this time to strengthen the defense function of the yard.

But they couldn't dig traps, and they couldn't get many mousetraps, and they couldn't think of any other solutions. It was not until Song Youlin saw bundles of wire in the space at night that he came up with an idea.

I planned to use iron wire and some thin iron sheets to weave a wire fence and hang it along the wall in the yard.

If someone dared to climb over the wall and come in, even if they didn’t leave some flesh threads on it, they would at least leave behind pieces of clothing. If someone came in the summer... the scene would be too beautiful to even imagine.

When Jiang Jingcheng arrived, he saw He Feiyang and Song Youlin wearing work gloves and weaving iron mesh with pliers. Song Shuangshuang and Tan Anjing were responsible for cutting the wires.

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Come, let's work together."

When Song Youlin saw that the person coming was Jiang Jingcheng, he didn't bother to be polite with him and took out another set of tools from the house.

Jiang Jingcheng didn't mind. He took a small stool from the door, sat on it for a while and watched how the two of them did it. He soon got the hang of it.

"You three have worked so hard, what would you like to eat for lunch? An Jing and I will make it."

She and An Jing also wanted to help weave the iron net, but her brother was afraid that they would get scratched by the iron sheets and wires again, so he didn't agree and only asked them to be responsible for cutting the wires.

The length of the wire doesn’t matter, and with two people working on it, it didn’t take long to make a pile of it.

Now with Jiang Jingcheng's help, Song Shuangshuang must want to do something good.

"Anything is fine." Song Youlin also knew that with Jiang Jingcheng around, the lunch would definitely be good.

Fortunately, the main room is big enough, so Jiang Jingcheng and the other two can work here without disturbing Song Shuangshuang's cooking.

After the meal, Song Shuangshuang didn't let the three of them continue working. They had to take a break anyway. Otherwise, their cervical spine would hurt after a while.

And among these three yards, her yard is bigger than He Feiyang and Tan Anjing’s combined, so she won’t be able to finish cleaning it even if she works until tomorrow night.

"You guys should have extra tools here. I'll take two pairs of pliers back."

Jiang Jingcheng estimated that Song Shuangshuang's family had some extra tools, so he took two pairs of pliers and some iron wire. As for where the iron wire and iron sheet came from, Jiang Jingcheng did not ask.

"No, you can do it later when you have time."

Song Shuangshuang thought Jiang Jingcheng was going to take it back and work overtime for her.

These iron nets were not only built by her family, but also by He Feiyang and Tan Anjing's families. How could she let Jiang Jingcheng work overtime for them?

"It's not me who does it. I'll take them up the mountain later. Uncle Meng and the others are idle anyway, so I'll give them something to do, and they'll be happy."

Uncle Meng and Uncle Wen probably knew that they were going to make things for Song Shuangshuang and the others, so they would probably rush to do it. Even his grandfather and grandpa Sun would have to join in.

After hearing what Jiang Jingcheng said, Song Shuangshuang felt even more embarrassed.

How could they ask Uncle Meng and the others to help? It's all their own work.

"No, no, no, if you take it up the mountain, Uncle Meng and Grandpa Sun will definitely ask what you're going to use it for. Don't let them worry about it. We can do it ourselves."

Song Youlin and He Feiyang didn't think there was anything wrong with Jiang Jingcheng's behavior. Instead, they thought of something that they had always ignored.

Except for the time when Grandpa Sun was sick and Uncle Wen took the initiative to ask them for help, they have always taken the initiative to send things to the mountain, such as food, daily necessities, and clothes. Basically, they would send some every once in a while.

Although Grandpa Sun and his men really needed these things, they always refused. In the end, they accepted them, but it was also because they were "threatened".

Is this really what they want, to just accept it blindly?

Will they feel burdened and think that they are useless and need a few children to run the black market to take care of them?

Aunt Chang and Sister Juhua both knew that they went to the black market. How could the elders in the mountains not know about it? I guess they must have been worried about them all the time.

They are really not as good as Jiang Jingcheng who went up the mountain to seek help from some elders. The elders would not have such a heavy burden in their hearts, so they could feel more relaxed.

"How about this? I think the weather is pretty good recently. It's boring for Grandpa Jiang and his friends to stay in the mountains all the time. Why not take them down the mountain for a walk while the villagers are taking a nap?"

If Grandpa Jiang and Uncle Meng are willing, they can help us weave the iron net. Let's have dinner here tonight, and invite Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang to come as well? Just treat it as a reunion dinner together.

how about it? "

Song Youlin thought that he might as well take this opportunity to invite Grandpa Jiang and the others to come and have a reunion dinner together. It didn't matter whether he worked or not, the main thing was to spend time with them.

They stayed in the mountains for the entire winter, and even had to eat alone. It was really depressing.

The others obviously didn't expect Song Youlin to suddenly make such a suggestion.

But! It seems really good!

"Yeah, why didn't we think of this before?"

I said before that I would come back before the 15th day of the first lunar month so that I could spend the day with my friends, but Grandpa Sun, Uncle Meng, and Uncle Wen are all alone in the mountains. Although the 15th day has passed, it’s okay to make up for it!

Anyway, no one is coming to their place, and the aunts have already celebrated the New Year, so they won’t come to see them for a while.

"Is it settled then?! I'll go see if there's anything else at home, and you guys go up the mountain to pick someone up!"

The path on the mountain is not easy to walk on, and Grandpa Jiang and Grandpa Sun’s legs are not that strong either, so someone must go to pick them up!

Those who don’t know how to use the iron net can push it back, there is no rush!

Jiang Jingcheng didn't know how the topic came to this, and the decision had already been made before he even said a word.

"Let's go, let's go straight up the mountain. When you come back, you can go home and tell Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang about this. You have to ask them to come over."

Jiang's father has difficulty with his legs and can only go up the mountain a few times a year, so he must ask the couple to go along.

"What did you say?" Looking at Song Youlin and the others in front of him, Grandpa Jiang thought he was hallucinating.

"We want to take you, Grandpa Sun, Uncle Meng and Uncle Wen down the mountain for a walk. You haven't been to our place yet, so it's a good opportunity to go and have a look. You can also help us with some work." Song Youlin didn't mention the reunion dinner.

Firstly, they should have thought about this a few days ago. It would be a bit awkward to talk about having a reunion dinner now. Secondly, they wanted to give Grandpa Jiang a surprise.

Grandpa Jiang and the others were not paying attention to the work, they only heard about going down the mountain to Song Youlin's house.

Several people seemed very hesitant, thinking it was inappropriate to go down the mountain to their home in broad daylight.

"We won't go. It's broad daylight, what if someone sees us? No, no, no." Grandpa Jiang and the others have not forgotten what Hong Xiuzi did when she came to the village before.

Although they also wanted to go down the mountain, they decided to stay on the mountain in order not to cause trouble for the children.

Anyway, they have gotten used to it over the years.
