Chapter 21

After the two of them had breakfast, Zhuang Yan immediately went up the mountain. This time he didn't have to chop wood anymore. He only had to carry the wood he had chopped earlier back home.

Zhuang Yan chopped mostly dry firewood today. He plans to go into the mountains in a few days to have a look. He is currently preparing firewood for Wan Tianning for the next few days. As for their winter firewood for next year, they have to wait for him. Don't talk about the important things at hand until you're done.

When Zhuang Yan was carrying four bundles of firewood down the mountain to go home, he met many villagers. Among them, a couple looked at him and hesitated to speak. When Zhuang Yan saw this, he took the initiative to say hello to them, but the two of them were He left in a hurry and ignored him.

Zhuang Yan looked at the middle-aged man and thought he looked familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember who he looked like, so he stopped thinking about it, assuming that it was a celebrity face that he had seen on TV. Pass.

After returning home, Zhuang Yan found that the courtyard door was closed. He reached out to push it and found that it was still bolted. There were still people at home in broad daylight, but the courtyard door was tightly closed. Zhuang Yan suddenly thought of what happened in the morning. He thought that Wan Tianning must be afraid. He was afraid that the families of the two poor children would come to trouble him, so he closed the courtyard door.

Once he thought of this fact, it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel distressed, but at the same time, Zhuang Yan also felt relieved. At least they now have a yard and a high wall to block people from outside. Even if people outside want to If you have to break through forcefully, the family members can have time to adapt.

"Tianning, I'm back, open the door for me." While calling Wan Tianning, Zhuang Yan lightly knocked on the door with one hand, and touched the three pheasants in his hand with the other hand. The pheasant they found last time There were several more eggs in the nest. He picked up two and brought them back. Now there are two more eggs in there.

As soon as Zhuang Yan finished speaking, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and the courtyard door opened in a flash.

"Brother Zhuang." Wan Tianning had a particularly obvious smile on his face. It felt like he had encountered something happy. Zhuang Yan was also about to share the good things he had encountered with him when he saw the stranger at home. , so he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

"We have a guest." Zhuang Yan saw that the visitor was a young girl. She was still holding Wan Tianning's embroidered quilt in her hand. Seeing Zhuang Yan enter the door, the girl became obviously uncomfortable and stood up directly.

Zhuang Yan and his colleagues simply said hello and went to the eaves outside the kitchen. The place was facing the sun. There was no heavy rain at this time of year, so the firewood would dry quickly and be convenient to use.

When Zhuang Yan came back, the girl had left. He took out the wild eggs in his pocket and showed them to Wan Tianning. Wan Tianning's eyes lit up. After taking the few wild eggs, his bright eyes were filled with wonder. Towards Zhuang Yan. "Brother Zhuang, you are so smart!"

"Haha." Looking at the man's eyes full of surprise and admiration, Zhuang Yan knew that Wan Tianning was thinking of the last time they picked up wild eggs.

At that time, he wanted to keep two of them, but he was still doubtful. Now it was proved to him that he was right.

Zhuang Yan had to go up the mountain, and when he was about to leave again, Wan Tianning grabbed him and stuffed something into his pocket, saying it was the melon seeds the girl had just given him. Zhuang Yan asked casually who the girl was. Wan Tianning told Zhuang Yan his family background in detail.
