Chapter 469

When Xiao Sheng heard Yu Bing’s concerned tone, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. “Alright, don’t worry. I’ll be careful.”

Yu Bing felt that she had already said everything she needed to say, so she looked at Xiao Sheng and urged, “It’s getting late. You still have to wash up and pack your things when you get back. You also have to wake up early tomorrow, so hurry up and go back to finish your work before resting early.”

Xiao Sheng pursed his lips and rubbed Yu Bing’s head. “You heartless girl. I probably won’t be able to come back until the new year. Why aren’t you cherishing your time with me now?”

When Yu Bing heard this, her fair face flushed. “It’s not like you won’t come back.”

!!

Although she said that, Yu Bing still chose to continue chatting with Xiao Sheng. “Are you guys going to stay in the guest house after you go there?”

Xiao Sheng shook his head. “The guest house is too expensive. If I stay for a month, even an eight-person bunk bed costs 0.2 yuan. I can stay anywhere alone, but with Xiao Lin, I definitely have to choose a two-person one, so it’ll cost 0.5 yuan a day. I might as well rent a house near the hospital. It’ll probably be 7 to 10 yuan a month.”

occasionally make soup to nourish their bodies. It would also save money, but his culinary skills…

Yu Bing nodded. If he rented a house, he could cook his own food. S City’s cuisine didn’t suit the taste of the people in Jiang Province. It was fine to try something new on a business trip, but they definitely wouldn’t be able to tolerate it over the long term. He could occasionally make soup to nourish their bodies. It would also save money, but his culinary skills…

Yu Bing glanced at Xiao Sheng as she said tactfully, “I’ll write a few recipes with low failure rates for you. Coupled with the few dishes you’ve improved on previously, it’ll be enough.”

After Yu Bing took out a pen and paper, she sat at the table as she started writing.

Xiao Sheng smiled and sat down as well. “When I didn’t know you, no matter how bad my cooking tasted, they still ate it. Now, they’ve been completely spoiled by your good culinary skills.”

Yu Bing was smug. “The increase in demand means that the supply base has improved. This is a good sign! Humans’ basic survival needs are to eat their fill and wear warm clothes. Only by resolving this problem can they eat well and dress well.”

After Yu Bing finished writing, handed over the recipes.

Xiao Sheng took it and folded it before putting it in his pocket. His family could earn so much money because they were lucky enough to meet Yu Bing. Most people were still struggling to make ends meet. This was the reality of this era.

As Xiao Sheng recalled the changes in his family over the past year, he said with emotion, “I wonder when the current situation will change.”

Yu Bing was stunned for a moment, but she didn’t dare to make it too obvious. She only hinted, “Soon. The wrong decision will eventually be remedied.”

Yu Bing was only worried that her earning speed couldn’t keep up with the change in policy. After she and Xiao Sheng went to school next year, she would definitely not be able to continue being the factory director of the food factory. Xiao Sheng would probably have to put his job on hold as well.

Yu Bing’s first choice was definitely a school in the capital. Be it educational conditions, connections, or business policy, going to the capital to develop was the best choice.

However, the living expenses in the capital were high, and they would be living near the cream of the crop in the country. Even after this ten-year catastrophe, those families with deep foundations still secretly preserved a certain amount of strength. A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Their bit of money was completely insufficient.

The two of them chatted for a while before bidding farewell and parting ways.

The next morning, Xiao Sheng got on the bus with his siblings.

The He Mountain Village was still enveloped in darkness in winter. The north wind howled fiercely, and even though they were wrapped up, their eyes were still trembling from the cold.

However, it also confirmed that the sky before dawn was the darkest, but it was the closest to dawn.

The three siblings in the car were burning with passion as they rushed forward with the hope their family had for many years.

After the Xiao family left, Yu Bing didn’t need to hold classes anymore. Because of the snow on the ground, it wasn’t convenient for her to run anymore. The only two places she went to were the factory and her home.

After Yu Yan was issued the permission slip, she also went home. Yao Nian performed very well this time and bought food for Yu Yan to bring back. He even sent her to City H.

Among the intellectuals in the village, other than a few who returned home with the agency permission slip sent by their parents, the others accepted spending the new year in the village, as if they were used to it.

Yu Bing was relieved when she received a call from Xiao Sheng, who said that they had arrived in S City safely. Then, she immersed herself in work.
