Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger

Seeing this brand new food truck being delivered to Xuyuan's home by Chen Dafu, some villagers passing by were curious and asked what it was.

Chen Dafu said he didn't know what it was, it was custom-made by the girl who made the wish, so he had to ask her what it was used for.

When the villagers heard that it was about making a wish, they didn't think it was so strange.

"Wow, this car is so beautiful." Xuanyun heard a knock on the door, and seeing that his sister was not available, he went to open the door himself.

What I saw was a very strange car, but it looked very nice. The big man standing next to it looked even more surprised.

"What's the matter, kid, is there something on your face?"

"No, no, hello Uncle Chen, please come in." Manyu retracted the surprise on his face and politely invited Chen Dafu in.

Chen Dafu waved his hand and stood at the door without going in.

Xuyuan was peeling peanut shells. A pile of shells had already formed on the ground in the yard, and a sack of peanuts was almost half full.

Looking back, I saw Chen Dafu outside the gate and the finished cart. I was not surprised at all, after all, I often went to check the progress during this period. I stood up and walked to the gate.

"Xiaoduo, Xiaoyuan, uncle won't stay long. The sweet potatoes you gave me last time are now ready for planting. We have been busy reclaiming land these days, and now we are finally going to start planting."

"Okay, uncle, I won't delay your work. Do you want to come in and have a bowl of water before you leave?"

"No need. Uncle is leaving first." Chen Dafu left Xu Yuan's house in a hurry. It was getting late. If he didn't go back to help, his wife would have something to say again.

"Sister, Uncle Chen looks very familiar to me." Xu Zhi looked at Chen Dafu who was walking in a hurry and said to Xu Yuan.

"Look familiar?" After saying this, the memory of making a wish instantly began to return.

But does he look familiar? I went to Chen Dafu's house every day these days, but I didn't look closely. I should blame myself for not paying attention.

"Yes, he looks a lot like Brother Daquan." Xiaoduo interrupted, "Brother Daquan is silly. I heard from Brother Yuelai that Brother Daquan had a serious illness and forgot about his family."

Is that so?

Xu Yuan plans to find time to talk to Chen Dafu. If it is true, it would be a good thing.

"I know about this matter. Don't tell anyone until I understand the situation."

The three siblings nodded seriously.

He pushed the food cart to an empty space in the yard and stopped it, then Xuyuan went back to continue shelling peanuts.

Now all the tools are ready, and the small fish have been processed by Xu Yuan and Xu Zhi. They are marinated with salt and hung on the rack.

"Sister, what should we do with these peanuts?" Xu Zhi looked at the full basket of peanuts and two bags of peanuts and really didn't know where to start.

"Finish this bag first, and take your time with the rest. This small pile of peanuts should be saved for planting. Put these aside for now, and I'll copy some for you to try later."

I'm thinking of making some candied peanuts with the remaining peanuts, frying them with malt sugar.

In this busy way, another day is about to pass, but it seems that not much has been accomplished. Somehow, I feel a little tired of making wishes.

"Sister, there is always work to do, just take your time."

Looking at Xu Yuan's tired face, Xu Zhi didn't know what to say and felt very distressed. If only dad was still alive, sister wouldn't have to work so hard.

As I was thinking, tears started to flow for some reason. I immediately turned my back and secretly wiped away the tears.

"Sister, I'm going to cook." Xu Zhi didn't want others to notice her expression, so she went into the kitchen in the dim light of the fire. It was getting darker at this time.

Lin'an Academy

In the bedroom

Gu Qinghan was sitting in front of the window in a white inner garment, with long hair draped behind her and deep eyes. She was quietly flipping through a book, frowning, very puzzled. Thinking of something, she resisted the rejection in her heart and turned to the next page...

The snoring next to him was getting louder and louder. Gu Qinghan really wanted to cover the man's mouth with something. But this man, like a man trying to cover his ears while stealing a bell, covered his own ears with something.

Most of the dormitories in Lin'an Academy were six-person rooms. Gu Qinghan was lucky and was assigned to a double room. At first, he lived with a very gentle and polite scholar.

However, not long after, Li Junyong was complained about and asked to change his dormitory. Unfortunately, changing it once was not enough, and he changed it several times. Finally, someone said that Li Junyong and Gu Qinghan were from the same village, so Li Junyong and Gu Qinghan shared a dormitory.

I still remember when Li Junyong came over with his luggage, he said to Gu Qinghan pitifully, "Qinghan, I'm being disliked. You don't dislike me too, do you? Let me change, after all, we are from the same village."

Gu Qinghan had nothing to say. The scholar who had shared a dormitory with him seemed to be gloating. He patted Gu Qinghan on the shoulder for once, looking as if he cared for him.

Li Junyong, who came in from behind, was furious and said, "It's not that exaggerated. Do you believe me? If I let Gu Qinghan leave, I'll let you share a dormitory with me."

"Oh, no, no, I can't do that. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." After saying that, he quickly picked up his few luggage and slipped out the door as if there was a ghost chasing him.

Gu Qinghan didn’t think it was a big deal. After all, they had rested together when they fled from famine before, and he had a pretty good idea of ​​what kind of people they were.

But, I didn’t expect...

Why is this happening?

I don’t know if it was the environment that gave Li Junyong a sense of security, which caused the snoring. But when Gu Qinghan was woken up, he thought he was sleeping by the field. How could there be such a big frog croaking?

After waking up, it is difficult to fall asleep again.

I looked at the bedside. Those were the miscellaneous books that Li Junyong had placed on his desk. He reminded me to remember to read them when I had time. He said that these were very popular books recently. I had been trying to get one for a long time, and I even made a small amount of money by lending these books to others.

The cover looked normal, but there was another cover inside, and the title was very unpopular. This kid was actually reading idle books in the academy. Reading storybooks was strictly prohibited in the academy, at least no one dared to read them openly.

The pages of the book had traces of being flipped through by many people, and they were a little worn. Gu Qinghan was disgusted when he got it, until he saw two words, and then he flipped through it with curiosity.

The book was not thick and was quickly read. From the initial disdain he felt, to the fact that he still wanted to know what would happen next, Gu Qinghan knew how much tips this kid had earned by lending this book.

He sat quietly for a while, looked in the direction of Hsinchu Village, supported his chin with his hands, stared at one place for a while, then lay down on the edge of the bed, blocked his ears, and closed his eyes.
