Chapter 176 Little Aunt

Jiang Chengxu went to see Xu Qinghuan, but she didn't even look at him.

Xu Manman looked at the way Jiang Chengxu stared at Xu Qinghuan, and her heart was really upset. He was about to marry her, and Xu Qinghuan was engaged to someone else, but he still couldn't let go of Xu Qinghuan?
Xu Qinghuan was really shameless. She had occupied the position that should have belonged to her in the Xu family for so many years, but she didn't appreciate her kindness at all. She lived in a big house made of blue bricks and tiles, but refused to let her and her brother live in it.

Now that she has the credit of the harvester, she can't go back to the city. If the higher-ups give her the quota to return to the city, she'd better give it to them.

Seeing Xu Qinghuan coming back, Xu Manman didn't care about her work and hurried to chase Xu Qinghuan, "Sister, stop!"

Xu Qinghuan turned a deaf ear to her, and Xu Manman quickly shouted, "Xu Qinghuan, stop!"

She stopped Xu Qinghuan on the ridge of the field. Jiang Chengxu also came over and heard Xu Manman say, "Sister, I'm just concerned about you. You've made such a great contribution to the harvester. Did the higher-ups say how to reward you?"

Xu Qinghuan smiled, "I said it!"

Xu Manman's heart was beating very fast. She was extremely nervous. "How, how do you say it?"

Jiang Chengxu also held his breath and pricked up his ears, afraid of missing a word.

"Of course it's the reward for returning to the city!" Xu Qinghuan knew what these two people were thinking, like a worm in their stomachs, and said deliberately.

Xu Manman felt her throat was dry and uncomfortable, so she asked, "Sister, are you going back to the city?"

"No!" Xu Qinghuan laughed, "Why would I go back to the city? If I did, why would I give up my job at the lighting factory in the first place?"

Jiang Chengxu was smart and asked, "Is it just a reward for returning to the city?"

"Of course not!" Xu Qinghuan's attitude was unusually kind. She deliberately pretended to be very distressed. "Originally, the organization wanted to reward me with four work targets, but I only asked for three. Too many is not good."

She asked for four, but I probably can't give you that many. I can only keep three at most.

But for her, getting three indicators to return to the city was really easy, and she had plenty of opportunities to get indicators for formal employment in the city.

Xu Manman smiled, and felt that the world had become wider. Three work targets, Xu Qinghuan had to stay and fulfill the engagement. That was to say, she had finally got the three targets for her, Jiang Chengxu, and Xu Hongtu.

Since Xu Qinghuan was so sensible, she decided to put aside the old grudges between them for the time being.

"Sister, are you sure you won't go back to the city with us?" Xu Manman pretended to be heartbroken. "If you stay in the countryside, we will all be worried and miss you. You should come back to the city with us!"

Xu Qinghuan just found it hilarious. "Are you three going back to the city? When did the documents come in? Did they reserve jobs for you in the city?"

Jiang Chengxu was stunned for a moment. "Aren't three work targets for me, Manman, and Hongtu? If it were four, you would have gone back with us. Why do you have to stay here?"

Xu Manman also nodded, as if it was a matter of course.

"The three work indicators are given to you? Why?" Xu Qinghuan felt that these two people once again refreshed her perception of their shamelessness. They could actually have such a beautiful dream.

"Then who are you going to give it to?" Xu Manman blocked Xu Qinghuan's way. "Aren't we your closest relatives? If you don't give us the work quota, who are you going to give it to?"

"I can't give it to anyone but you guys." Xu Qinghuan said with a smile, "My dearest friend, don't you think it's ridiculous to say that? Also, how can you two still have the nerve to go back to Shencheng?"

Xu Manman thought she was talking about her and Jiang Chengxu being caught and cheating, and she didn't take it seriously. "Why can't we go back? Brother Chengxu and I are already engaged, so why are we so embarrassed?"

Xu Qinghuan laughed and said, "Oh, I heard that your butt is fat, white and big. Jiang Chengxu, are you happy?"

Jiang Chengxu gritted his teeth and glared at her fiercely, "You...how can you be so shameless!"

Xu Qinghuan smiled and went back in a good mood. She didn't have to go to work and came here just to sign in with the team leader. Jiang Xingye had to stay in the field to work.

As soon as we entered the village, Shuanzi came over with a group of children, "Sister Fairy, you are back?" "Sister Fairy, you went to the county, we missed you so much!"

"Sister Fairy, I picked the most delicious mulberries for you to eat!"

"And I have wild grapes, they are so sweet!"

These little guys know exactly where the fruits are at the foot of the mountain. They know which ones will be ripe on which day and will pick the ripe fruits before the birds do.

Now they are all presented to Xu Qinghuan as if they were treasures.

The fruits were washed clean, some were held in the corners of clothes, and some were held in hands. They all crowded in front of Xu Qinghuan, and pairs of clear eyes full of innocence and childishness looked at her eagerly.

There was no way she could refuse.

Eat two mulberries, then a bite of wild grapes and deep red raspberries, it's really delicious.

"I'm done eating, thank you! I also brought you some delicious food from the county town. Come, line up and take yours one by one!"

Xu Qinghuan pretended to take out some delicious food from his canvas bag, but actually he took out a bag of glutinous rice noodles from his space.

This was the snack she received when she went on a business trip to Xuzhou in her previous life. She didn't want to eat it at the time, so she just put it in the space.

Jiangmi noodles are made by mixing glutinous rice flour with bean flour, steaming it in a stew pot, pounding it in a stone mortar with a stick, rolling it into a round shape, drying it in the sun, and then frying it in oil. Finally, it is dipped in red bean paste such as plum blossom, pine flower, and sesame. [1]

Jiangmi noodles are one of the eight delicacies of Xuzhou, and are also one of the most popular snacks in later generations across the country.

There are also pastry factories in the Northeast that make glutinous rice noodles. Besides, since Xu Qinghuan came from Shanghai, it is not unreasonable for him to bring southern pastries like glutinous rice noodles.

There were many children, so each of them got two.

The glutinous rice sticks were covered with a layer of icing sugar, which was sweet. The children were reluctant to eat them, so some of them took the glutinous rice sticks and licked the icing sugar carefully.

Xu Qinghuan called Erya and gave her an extra glutinous rice noodle. "How are great-grandfather and great-grandmother?"

"It's pretty good. Great-grandfather and great-grandmother came out on their own yesterday. Grandpa said that my aunt's medicine is really effective."

The words "little aunt" made Xu Qinghuan blush a little. She coughed lightly and said, "Don't you call me sister? I still like to hear the name "Fairy Sister"."

Erya smiled innocently and said, "Shuanzi and I call our auntie "Fairy Sister". At home, I have to call her "little auntie". My uncle said that if we do so, he will give us a reward."

Xu Qinghuan said "Ah" and pretended to be mysterious, "Then can you tell me what reward your uncle gave you?"

Erya wanted to please Xu Qinghuan, so she betrayed Jiang Xingye without any psychological burden. "My uncle said he would give us candy, and the tomatoes in his vegetable garden are delicious. He picked tomatoes for us to eat."

Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but chuckle and couldn't help but rub Erya's hair. Although Tian Jinhua wanted to have a son, she never treated her two daughters badly. The two children were taken care of very cleanly by her.

The old man and the old lady of the Jiang family were enjoying the coolness under the jujube tree in the yard. The afternoon sun was still very hot, and the wind came from the valley, bringing the coolness of the mountains. For the two elderly people who could not get up all year round, coming out for some fresh air was such a luxury.

"Grandpa, grandma!" Xu Qinghuan went over to say hello.

The two old people were also very happy to see her. "I heard that you and Xiaoye went to the county town. You came back so soon? Did Xiaoye buy you anything delicious?"
