Chapter 166 They should be coming

Even if she resists at first, if she is brainwashed by Mrs. Yuan later, will she still resist?
Xia Chan couldn't guarantee it.

Anyway, she will keep distance from the Yuan family in the future.

Then Xia Chan read the letter sent by Xiao Yunfan again, saying that his neighbor's two children were probably going to the countryside. He was afraid that Xia Chan would forget their names, so he wrote down the names of the two children again in the letter.

In fact, they don't need Xia Chan to take care of them when they go to the countryside. The educated youth point in the team has built single rooms and double rooms. The brothers and sisters live in double rooms to avoid being told by others. They can live in single rooms and don't get involved with everyone else. Basically, it's not a big deal. .

And she didn't think these two children could be bullied. Xiao Yunfan didn't come from a poor family at first glance. Although she didn't know his family, she felt that he must be good. So, could his neighbor's family be any worse?
The children raised by such a family must not be underestimated.

Those two children probably only went to the countryside to experience themselves for a period of time. After all, in the city, they might be surrounded by people who admired them, which led to them not having a clear understanding of human nature. When they came to the countryside, this When you meet many people on the road, you can understand the dangers of human nature through various situations in the world.

After returning home from get off work, Xia Chan opened the package sent to her by Su Yu and Xiao Yunfan. Her transactions with Su Yu never stopped, mainly to give her things a provenance.

The things Xiao Yunfan sent her were good things, including malted milk, canned food, milk candy, biscuits, etc. This time there was even chocolate, which should have been bought from a foreign exchange store. Chocolate in that era was an imported product with English on it and could not be left outside, otherwise something bad would happen.

So Xia Chan just put the chocolate into her space, and when she wanted to give it to her brothers, she just had to peel off the packaging bag and give it to them. They couldn't even drink coffee, let alone chocolate, so she just had to give each of them a piece to taste.

As for the other things, I put half of them into the space. The temperature is getting higher and higher now, and it is easy for things to go bad if left outside, so I'd better eat a little and take a little!

It is June soon. Other places have already entered early summer, but the temperature here is not low. It is summer at noon. The only difference in temperature between morning and evening is that you have to be careful when dressing.

It still hadn't rained by June. Looking at the glaring sun hanging high in the sky, Xia Chan felt a little anxious. If it didn't rain, the grain yield would definitely decrease, and the crops she planted on the mountain would naturally also decrease in yield.

The yield in the first year will be very low, and no one will believe it, so naturally no one will be willing to grow these things in their own private plots.

But after all, it was only June, and Xia Chan didn't dare say anything, for fear that if it rained later, people would blame her for making a fuss. So she just ran over to ask the elders of the people she was on good terms with, saying that she was very scared and that if there was no rain this year, the grain production would decrease.

Let everyone think that she is really afraid of being hungry, rather than that she is deliberately reminding everyone of something. In this way, everyone will take this matter to heart and prepare to stock up in advance.

If it rains later, the things we stock up now can be eaten during the winter, and they won’t be wasted.

Therefore, the families who had a good relationship with Xia Chan's family became particularly diligent. After work, the whole family, young and old, went up the mountain to look for things. When others saw them and asked them what they were doing, they said they were afraid of being hungry. Naturally, those who were afraid of being hungry also became more diligent.

If you have enough food, you won’t be worried.

In fact, no matter what season the bamboo shoots grow, as long as there are bamboo shoots, they can be eaten. So even if the weather is getting hotter, summer cicadas will still pick bamboo shoots when they have time. They will pick a basket of bamboo shoots every morning and evening. It is not a big deal. There are many varieties of bamboo, and the time of bamboo shoots is different. Except for winter, there are bamboo shoots in other seasons.

Everyone knew that bamboo shoots were not tasty, so when people saw Xia Chan picking bamboo shoots, they just thought she was picking them to take home to feed the pigs. So no one snatched the bamboo shoots from Xia Chan, and Xia Chan didn't say anything either, because after she picked the bamboo shoots she wouldn't have time to look for other things, so the other things naturally went to other people.

And she went to pick bamboo shoots not just to pick bamboo shoots, but more to water the cassava, persimmon and jujube trees she planted. She couldn't let them die in the first year of planting!

After all, we may have to rely on cassava at the end of the year!

Xia Chan fetched water from the stream every now and then to water the vegetables planted in her own and her brother's yards, as well as the fruits and vegetables she planted on the mountain, taking good care of them. After all, many vegetables mature in the summer, and if they were not taken good care of and there was no yield, not only would they not be able to eat them, but Xia Chan would also easily lose money.

No one wants their year's hard work to go to waste.

When it was getting dark that day, Xia Chan was carrying a basket of bamboo shoots on her back and was returning home. She happened to meet the team leader, who told her that she should go to the train station to pick up the educated youth tomorrow. However, since the educated youth were not taking the same train, they would have to wait a little longer at the train station tomorrow.

Xia Chan nodded, indicating that she understood.

It is estimated that Xiao Yunfan’s neighbors Xiao Fengfeng and Xiao Tiantian also came over, otherwise Xiao Yunfan would not have reminded her again and again.

The next morning, Xia Chan had breakfast at home and went down the mountain to the team leader's house early. He drove a tractor with the team leader and set off. On the way out of the production team, he met villagers who were going to the town and asked them to get on the tractor.

Every time Xia Chan goes out on a tractor, he takes an empty backpack with him so that he can bring back some goodies.

The family had enough food, whether it was coarse grains or fine grains, so she didn't need to take food out of the space. She just often took out some good things to improve the living standards of her family.

The train tickets for the educated youth going to the countryside were all purchased by the local educated youth office, and then the arrival time of the train was notified by telegram. So today Xia Chan had to pick up the educated youth on two trains, one arriving at ten o'clock and the other at one o'clock in the afternoon.

When they arrived outside the train station and parked the tractor, Xia Chan hung the commune sign on the tractor and said to the team leader, "Uncle Captain, I have something to deal with. Please wait here for a while."

"Go, go. Picking up the educated youth was my job. The team didn't have a tractor before, so we used a ox cart to pick them up. It took us half a day to go back and forth." The team leader waved his hand.

It is still early at one o'clock in the afternoon, so the summer cicadas can take a good stroll around the county town.

There is usually a black market behind the train station, but Xia Chan always goes to the black market in the town because it is closer and the county town is too far away.

Xia Chan found an empty corner and dressed herself up as a man, but her image was different from the one she wore when she went to the town to trade. She was afraid that the two black market bosses would communicate with each other and find out that they were the same person, so this time she changed into a middle-aged rough man with a dark complexion.
