“You’re wrong. Did you not see me? I’m the one who dug the most, more than Jiang Yue and Xue Yan!” Xue Wufu immediately handed his basket over to Xue Xiaobao, not caring if he was comparing himself to a child, who always called himself an adult.
“But Wufu, aren’t you an adult? The things you dig can’t be compared to what children like us dig,” Xue Xiaobao said seriously.
“Yes, yes, yes. I’ve been with you guys for so long that I’ve forgotten that I’m an adult.” Xue Wufu laughed.
Although Jiang Yue also spoke, she was not good at getting along with children, so she really did not know what to say. After hesitating for a moment, she asked Xue Gouzi, Xue Dabao, and Xue Xiaobao, “What do you guys like to eat?”
Hearing this, Xue Yan’s lips curved up.
It wasn’t that he didn’t see that Jiang Yue was not good at getting along with children, but Jiang Yue would also use her own way to thank Xue Xiaobao and the others for their help.
Even though she didn’t need the help of the three children.
Xue Gouzi shook his head subconsciously, “I don’t have anything I like to eat.”
Xue Dabao was already seven years old, so he was quite sensible. When he heard Jiang Yue’s words, he roughly understood what she meant. He stammered and refused to say what he liked to eat.
Only Xue Xiaobao, who was innocent and naive, said directly, “Jiang Yue, I really like to eat malt candy. When my great-aunt came over for the new year last year, she brought a small pack for us, and I was only given a small piece. I was very reluctant to eat it, but I still finished it in a short while. Her brother was the same. Xue Gouzi also likes to eat malt candy, but he likes to keep it as a treasure and not eat it. He would eat bit by bit every day for a long long time.”
Jiang Yue only replied with an oh and did not say anything else.
Xue Xiaobao didn’t know how to ask her why she suddenly asked this question. He just answered whatever she had to say, and once he answered, the matter was over. He didn’t take it to heart at all.
Jiang Yue, however, took it to heart.
She had already decided in her heart that after she was done with the barren land, she would make malt candy for the three children.
Xue Yan didn’t need to ask to know what she was thinking.
After a good rest, he continued to dig for raspberries.
At noon, Li Hehua stood at the village entrance and shouted for lunch.
“Let’s go, let’s go home for dinner. Let’s go home for dinner.” Xue Wufu jumped up and stopped digging. He quickly put the basket back on his back.
Jiang Yue and the others stopped digging.
“Let’s go to my house for dinner.” Xue Yan said.
Xue Dabao and Xue Xiaobao both said, “It’s fine. My grandma sent some cured meat over yesterday. She said it was for us to eat. My grandma said she’ll make it for us later. We’re going home to eat.”
“Alright, then.” There was no meat at home at noon, so Xue Yan didn’t force them to stay.
Xue Gouzi had a lot of concerns, so he was even more unwilling to go.
Xue Yan understood, so he naturally did not force him.
Xue Xiaobao and the others poured the seeds they dug into Xue Yan and Xue Wufu’s baskets, then went back home happily.
Xue Yan and Xue Wufu brought Jiang Yue home.
Li Hehua was still waiting at the entrance of the village. When they came over, she picked up Jiang Yue and went home with them.
After looking at the basket on Xue Yan and Xue Wufu’s back, Li Hehua smiled, “We’ve dug so much, it should be enough.”
“Enough? ” Xue Wufu immediately shouted. “Xue Yan just told me that he wanted eight thousand of them. There are only a few here.”
“Eight thousand? You want so much to…” Li Hehua was also a little surprised.
