Gao Xin immediately hinted, “We also want to settle things early so that we can ask the family to send some packages over. After all, we can’t let you work for nothing.”
Even if the two of them offered him gifts now, Yao Nian didn’t dare to accept them directly. After all, he knew very well what Yu Bing’s attitude towards him was.
Yao Nian didn’t answer directly. He only smiled and said, “It’s still too early. We won’t know the factory’s situation until next year. Don’t be too anxious. We’re all intellectual youths who came down from the city to build the countryside. If there’s any good offer, we’ll definitely take care of everyone.”
He neither refused nor agreed. Huang Yu and Gao Xin thought that Yao Nian was being cautious and didn’t want to make any promises too early, so they didn’t say anything else.
Before leaving, Huang Yu suddenly remembered that it was Yao Nian’s turn to cook tomorrow, so he smiled and said, “Yao Nian, you’re the one cooking tomorrow, right? Gao Xin and I don’t have much work tomorrow, so we’ll do it. We’ll compensate you for delaying your lunch break today.”
Gao Xin quickly nodded in agreement.
They were all adults and everyone knew that this conversation had only delayed less than five minutes of his time. It was just an excuse to curry favor with Yao Nian.
Yao Nian waved his hand and smiled. “What delay? It was just a few words.”
Huang Yu pretended to be angry. “It’s still a delay! Alright, don’t reject us. Otherwise, it means you aren’t treating us as friends.”
Yao Nian pretended to be reluctant as he agreed.
After the two of them left and closed the door, Yao Nian sat on the bed alone as he grinned from ear to ear. This was the life he wanted!
When he came back to his senses, he knew that the reason he could enjoy the treatment just now was because he was tied to Yu Bing. His smile slowly faded as he realized that he really had to speed things up and take down Yu Bing.
After some hesitation, he secretly contacted Li Ping. The two of them arranged that on their day off, Li Ping was in charge of luring Jiang Chun away to drug Yu Bing while Yao Nian found a way to climb into Yu Bing’s house.
At this moment, Yu Bing had no idea that she was being schemed against. She was still thinking about what business she could work on with Xiao Sheng for the new year.
Ever since the reclamation work in the county ended, Yu Bing only occasionally had excuses to drive out to deliver goods. When she couldn’t, she would have to rely on Xiao Sheng.
Yu Bing felt a little bad about this, so she decided to continue working hard on the new product.
After some contemplation, she went to look for Xiao Sheng in frustration. “Xiao Sheng, is there anything edible in the mountains now?”
Xiao Sheng frowned and thought for a long time. “Do purple sweet potatoes and yams count? Can you cook them?”
Yu Bing tilted her head as she thought about it for a moment. “Purple sweet potato, yam… I have an idea! I’ll make purple potato yam cake. It’s very good!”
Yu Bing perked up and sat up straight as she looked at Xiao Sheng energetically. “How much more are there?”
Xiao Sheng thought of those he had sold after discovering them. After all, those were vegetables, so he didn’t think too much about their other uses. In addition, Yu Bing had been busy a while ago and didn’t mention this matter. He said guiltily, “About 0.15 hectares in total.”
Xiao Sheng didn’t dare to tell the truth. He didn’t know why.
Yu Bing clasped her hands together. She was going to make money in the afternoon on her day off!
It was late autumn, and the weather was already chilly.
The cold weather made it easy to sleep. Yu Bing and Jiang Chun slept in and only woke up at 10 AM.
Jiang Chun washed up and started to heat up the fire to steam a few sweet potatoes. “It’s all thanks to Xiao Sheng, who got us cotton quilts. Moreover, they’re even cheaper than the supply agency’s. Otherwise, we would have caught a cold after the temperature suddenly dropped!”
“We do have to thank him. I was thinking about buying cotton before, but I forgot about it.” Yu Bing squatted on the ground with toothpaste in her mouth and said incoherently.
Jiang Chun looked at Yu Bing, who had washed up, and said, “Things are quite difficult for the three of them. I heard that Xiao Sheng was only 13 years old when his parents passed away. He was alone with his 1-year-old sister and 3-year-old brother. It’s all thanks to Mr. Wu’s family and some kind-hearted people in the village that they survived.”
Yu Bing worked all the time, so she didn’t know much about the rumors in the village. This was the first time she had heard such detailed information about the Xiao family.
Suddenly, she felt a little saddened. “Sigh, then we should work hard. Xiao Lin is a teenager, so he won’t be able to earn much work points. Xiao Li spends all day weaving baskets at home, so the three of them barely have enough work points to fill their stomachs. If Xiao Sheng didn’t work so hard, I really can’t imagine what would have happened to his family.”
