Chapter 1549: Partial Eyes Mom 25
Song Chenglai prepared the firewood and politely said to Yuanchun, "Han Zhiqing, the firewood is ready. I'm going back to eat."
"Wait a moment." Yuanchun called him and quickly took out a bag of candy and stuffed it into his hand. She used the same excuse, "I have a toothache and can't eat candy. It's so hot and it will go bad if I leave it in. Just help me eat it."
Song Cheng stared at the candy, secretly swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help but raise his mouth, "I can't take it for free, I...I'll give you money, I have money."
"No need. You helped me build the firewood. This candy is my payment."
"No, you bought firewood from me, so it's my duty to build the embankment for you. I can't charge you for my work."
The innocent little white rabbit had an expression of power and might, so Yuanchun could only pretend to be angry and said, "If I tell you to take it, you take it. If you don't, I'll throw it into the cesspool."
"Don't...I'll take it."
Song Cheng hurriedly hid the candy inside his clothes, fearing that someone would see it and snatch it away from him.
After Song Cheng left, Yuanchun scooped a basin of water to wash the cabbage, planning to cook a pot of vegetable porridge in the evening. Just after washing the vegetables, Song Cheng sent another cart of firewood.
Song Cheng smiled shyly and said, "My grandma said that if you eat someone's food, you have to give them something in return. I ate your candy, so I'll give you firewood in return. If you don't have firewood in the future, I'll bring it to you without asking for money."
After unloading the firewood and piling it up, people left quickly.
Xiang Qing took a small stool and sat at the door to eat. "Han Zhiqing, we have a vegetable garden behind our house. Did Chang Zhiqing and Hong Zhiqing share it with you?"
Yuanchun shook her head, "Not yet."
"I should be able to distribute it to you tomorrow morning." Xiang Qing said, "You want to grow vegetables. I have some seeds here. I'll give you some later."
"Okay, I want cabbage seeds and radish seeds."
"Okay, I saved a lot of cabbage and radish seeds last year."
After Xiang Qing finished her meal, she went to the backyard carrying a bucket of water.
Yuanchun had cooked the vegetable porridge and was about to serve a bowl to let it cool down when Hong Xiurong stood at her door and called out, "Han Zhiqing, you haven't received your vegetable plot yet. Come on, I'll divide the vegetable plot for you."
Behind her were Ma Guoliang, Fang Yan and Ji Honghong.
Yuanchun hurriedly put down her bowl and chopsticks, quickly locked the door, and followed Hong Xiurong and others to the backyard.
The backyard was a large vegetable plot, neatly divided into rows. Each row was one meter wide and five meters long. Hong Xiurong said, "Each person gets three rows. The ones at the back are undivided. You can pick your own."
The vegetable garden at the back was overgrown with weeds as tall as a person and no one was planting anything.
Yuanchun chose three ridges of land on the edge, which was close to the courtyard wall. She could plant some beans, cucumbers and vines so that they could climb up the wall.
Ma Guoliang immediately chose the three vegetable plots next to hers. Fang Yan and Ji Honghong looked at each other and also chose the three vegetable plots next to Ma Guoliang.
The educated youth who lived in the collective dormitory in the front yard ate together and planted vegetables together in the backyard. They worked together and ate the vegetables they grew together.
Hong Xiurong said to Ma Guoliang and the other two, "Your vegetable plots have been divided. Since there is less work to do these days and we get off work early, let's tidy up the vegetable plots and plant some autumn cabbages."
"Come back with me, grab the tools, and call everyone to come and clean up together."
Hong Xiurong took the three of them away.
Xiang Qing, who was watering the vegetables, called out to Yuanchun, "Han Zhiqing, your vegetable plot has been divided. I have a small shovel here. Do you want to use it?"
"No need for now, I'll go back to eat first, and we'll talk tomorrow."
It was almost dark, and mosquitoes and flying insects were flying everywhere in the vegetable fields. If it weren't for the protection of the mental barrier, she would have been covered with bites.
