Chapter 126

Lin Lan thought that he wanted her to help him push the wagon, so she scurried to the back and intended to help out.

Han Qingsong, “…Get up there.”

“Haha, I’m not tired. I can just walk.”

Han Qingsong didn’t move. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Lin Lan, “…I’ll go up, then.”

Han Qingsong nodded.

Lin Lan happily climbed up. She was bound to be tired after walking that much. Although she wasn’t wearing high heels, these broken straw sandals were also…

I must make a new pair when I get home.

It’s just that she didn’t have the patience to make the insoles herself, so she was going to see if she could buy one or two. If she had the money, she would be able to get anything. With that in mind, she was satisfied.

She sang a little tune happily due to her ecstatic mood. She also didn’t care? about the fact that the songs coming out of her mouth were tunes that didn’t match the era they were in.

Han Qingsong, who was in front of her, didn’t say anything and just walked silently.

“I have to go back in a few days for my mother’s birthday,” Lin Lan remembered and told Han Qingsong about her encounter with Lin Mei.

Han Qingsong hummed, “Shall I accompany you?”

“No, don’t miss out work just because of this. I’ll just go with Xiaowang,” In this era, besides some winter days where workers were allowed some time to take a break or visit their relatives, there were usually no other exceptions when it came to taking leaves.

The other children were also earning their share of work points, so there should not be a delay or a mishap. Besides, they weren’t willing to go as the original owner’s brother treated his children better than what she used to treat hers. Due to the jealousy emanated from the kids, they didn’t like to rub salt into their wounds at something that wouldn’t come true.

Han Qingsong didn’t say anything.

Lin Lan told him about the process of her purchase, especially when it came to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. She was afraid that Han Qingsong would think that she was behaving badly and wastefully, so she was relieved to see his expressionless face when she glanced at him.

She had to explain everything entirely to prevent anyone with a loose mouth to twist her words and fit their own narrative. By then, Han Qingsong would definitely hate her.

After all, there were several villagers who gathered together to go there.

She also talked about her buying the two rolls of cloth, “They weaved this themselves, so I just bought it all. It’s a bit much… But it was really cheap!”

She was worried that Han Qingsong would think that she was spending the money indiscriminately. She didn’t want him to have any further negative opinions about her.

In the end, Han Qingsong said, “That’s good.”

Was he not going to object or complain?

However, it seemed to be impossible to get him to speak even a few words more. It looked as if he didn’t want to resonate with the refreshing feeling of buying the most sought-after products for very little money.

Han Qingsong walked steadily and required no break amidst the journey, so they arrived home rather quickly.

As soon as they entered the village, they encountered workers who came back from work. They saw that Han Qingsong was actually pulling a wagon that had his wife seated on it.

Everyone let out a tone of good-natured laughter. Some of the youngsters were even teasing lightheartedly, “Look at Qingsong and how much he cherishes his wife.”

“That’s right. See? She already has five kids, and yet, she still looks like a teenager.”

“Learn from him.”

Lin Lan was embarrassed and was afraid that Han Qingsong would be ashamed of it as well. When they got home, she hurriedly jumped out of the wagon before it stopped, “Next time, I’ll just walk.”
