A few days after this incident, someone came to the Shen family to cause trouble again. As a result, when they saw the black sparrows flying in the sky, the children were scared and scattered before they could attack. They dared not come to this evil place again.

Shen He stayed at home until the end of the first month of the year. She reluctantly said goodbye to her parents and returned to Liuxi Village with a lot of bags. Both her parents left their jobs on the grounds of recuperation, and the monthly supply remained the same. She was relieved and did not refuse the things her mother brought her - biscuits, malt milk, trough cakes, sweaters.

On the train, she was thinking about where to get some ginseng seeds. With just one, she could produce a bunch of ginseng. Soaking wine for her father or stewing soup, that is the real tonic.

When Xiao Yajuan heard Saihu barking, she quickly jumped off the kang and ran out. This guy never barks when there is someone at home. What happened today?

Seeing Shen He, the girl smiled and took the big bag from her. "Finally you're back. It's so boring when you're not at home. We're all looking forward to your coming back to tell stories."

"The ice and snow have melted. Is it time to go to work?"

"Well, about half a month. During this time, we can have some fun."

The boys went to the infrastructure team. I heard that they would all help dig tunnels this year. Bai Moli followed her example and joined the Iron Lady Team and left the educated youth point.

Shen He was so happy when he heard the news. There were only three of them left at the educated youth center. Xiao Yajuan was a good friend of hers, and Liu Mengyi was as soft as cotton. As long as she didn't know the key point, she would be fine. It seemed that life would be better this year.

After packing up her own things, she gave the two little friends a piece of the taro cake she brought. Liu Mengyi took a bite and squinted her eyes and said, "Sister Shen He, your mother is so good to you that she even brought you taro cake. Unlike my mother, when there are more things, I have a share. Now there are fewer things, my sister and I can forget about it."

Shen He smiled and didn't comment. In the evening, she made half a pot of mushroom noodles. The three of them ate until their bellies were round. Liu Mengyi lay on the kang and sighed with satisfaction.

"The white flour slices are so delicious that I almost swallowed my tongue."

Xiao Yajuan also laughed: "It's a waste to eat so much at night. If my mother sees it, she will scold me. What's the point of eating so much before sleeping, is it to press the kang?"

After eating, you should go to work. If you don't work, just rest less and you won't be hungry. Shen He now fully understands this era. Hearing this, she lay down and laughed. When she can live freely and speak freely, she will be completely satisfied.

The educated youth next door heard that she was back, and came together the next afternoon. Each of them carried a bag and brought their own food. In the evening, they cooked a big pot of wild vegetable porridge, and after eating, they sat on the kang and talked to each other.

The leisure time when not working slipped away quietly while the girls were doing needlework and listening to stories. When the Three Kingdoms were defeated, Wu and Shu were destroyed, and the smoke of gunpowder of the Three Kingdoms came to an end, the bell for the work in the village rang.

The educated youth from the outer station hurried back, and Shen He changed into old cloth shoes and went to work with his friends.

In spring, the land is first leveled, and the dung piles that look like small hills are spread out and integrated with the soil. Wait for the rain to come in a few days before planting.
