Chapter 83
It seems that only Fu Jingyou will let her mess around...

Fu Jingyou thought she was still in a low mood, so she comforted her:
"Don't be unhappy. The dates at home are ripe. I will take some free time to beat dates for you to eat."

Lu Miao's eyes lit up, he threw everything behind him, raised his head and asked, "Really?"

"Do not lie to you."

Fu Jingyou's tone was heavy.

Lu Miao believed it to be true and curled up her lips. She parted the clouds and saw the moonlight, her beauty became brighter, "That's okay!"

She had a smiling face, but there were two strings of shallow tears hanging on one side of her face. She was innocent and easy to coax, but she was more or less carefree in temperament.

Fu Jingyou sighed helplessly. Just now she was only focused on coaxing Lu Miao. In a moment of impatience, some physical contact was too close. Realizing the problem, she only reminded her softly this time:
"I've been out for a while, it's not good to be noticed... wipe your face, it's time to go back."

"Ah."

Lu Miao nodded, and Geng Xiaoyun's voice came from the bamboo bed at the other end of the "straw house":

"Oh Bing Xin, you feel comfortable enough. Come on over there. Where is Xiaomao Lu? Tell her to eat pomegranates."

Not wanting to stay any longer, she hastily wiped her face with her sleeves, walked back a few steps and then turned around, "Zao'er!"

Fu Jingyou nodded, "I know, let's go."

"Hehe~"

Lu Miao walked back satisfied, "Where are the pomegranates? How many did you pick?"

"Hey, they're all here! We agreed this time, I picked pomegranates for you, so I won't cry anymore."

Lu Miao stomped her feet proudly: "Who is crying?"

Geng Xiaoyun laughed, "Yes, yes, you, Lu Miao, didn't cry, it was Lu Xiaomao'er who cried!"

After all, isn't it her?
Lu Miao puffed her lips and was too lazy to talk to Geng Xiaoyun.

Under the dim lantern light, one could vaguely see the black speckled shell of the pomegranate. The appearance was not very good, but each one was cracked and the pomegranate seeds were so full that they were protruding outward.

Lu Miao sat on the bamboo bed and swung her legs, popping pomegranate seeds into her mouth. The overly sweet and not greasy taste suited her perfectly. She concentrated on pomegranates, and would only eat when she had a small handful. Deliver by mouth.

Ren Bingxin imitated her, and joined her side by side to clasp pomegranates. Finally, she poured a small handful of pomegranate seeds into her mouth, chewed them and tasted the sweetness, and gasped in comfort, "This pomegranate is so sweet, no wonder you are like this." It’s so refreshing to eat!”

Lu Miao chuckled: "Really? I feel refreshed too!"

It was dark, so I couldn't see her smile clearly, but just listening to her voice was so sweet that it healed people's hearts.

Geng Xiaoyun was sitting on the corner of the bamboo bed to rest. Hearing Lu Miao smile, he felt slightly relieved. At that time, he stood up, rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile:
"You two just sit here and eat, and I'll help them clean up."

Lu Miao stretched her neck and asked, "Don't you want to eat?"

Geng Xiaoyun waved his hand, "This stuff is very troublesome. I don't like to eat it. You two can eat it, but don't finish it all. Leave some for Gu Ying."

"understood!"

The threshing floor was busy and cheerful. On the other side, Chen Miaomiao carried lotus leaves and surrounded the path back to the educated youth spot. The spot should usually be closed to rest, but this time the door was open and quiet, and there was no light in the room.

Except for the occasional vague conversation from the male educated youth side, the female educated youth side of the room wished they could hear a pin drop.

Chen Miaomiao looked confused. She went back to her room, put down the lotus pods, and lit the kerosene lamp. Geng Xiaoyun was not in the room. She called twice but no one answered.

Chen Miaomiao's throat slid up and down. She sat by the bed and thought for a long time, then suddenly took the kerosene lamp and went to the main room.When I arrived at the main room, I didn't stop walking, but it was much slower.

Looking at the dark door of the room opposite, Chen Miaomiao didn't know what was going on, but she guessed that there was a low probability of someone inside. Her heart was pounding, and she made some ideas and went to the room over there.

Just holding the kerosene lamp, I poked my head into the door. Suddenly, a person sat up on the bed inside. Both sides looked at each other, and they were startled.

Yang Xiaojing sat on the bedside with disheveled hair and cursed:

"Are you sick?! Don't you know how to knock on the door? You walk silently. Who do you want to scare to death?"

"..."

Chen Miaomiao's chest drummed and she broke into a cold sweat. She took two steps back and already stood in the main room.

Anxiety flashed across her face, but she explained softly:
"I, I came back late, just to see that no one was in the house, and I wanted to know what you were doing..."

"What are you looking at? Is there anything interesting to see? You don't sleep in this room, so what does it have to do with you whether the people here are here? Even if you are curious, won't you ask?"

"I'm sorry...I'll know next time."

Chen Miaomiao suppressed her temper and returned to her room holding the kerosene lamp.

Over there, Yang Xiaojing still refused to give up:
"He also said that he wanted to take over the cooking job! I'm the first to go out every day and the last to come back. Isn't that just picking up what others have already prepared?"

"I'm sneaking around every day and I don't know what I'm doing. I'm just like a thief, appearing and disappearing!"

Ever since she had a fight with Chen Miaomiao and was punished, Yang Xiaojing felt displeased with everything she saw about Chen Miaomiao.

Usually, because of Gu Ying's face, Yang Xiaojing couldn't find fault with Chen Miaomiao. Looking back on Ying's absence and getting such an opportunity, Yang Xiaojing certainly wouldn't just let it go. She sat by the bed and cursed for a long time before she was satisfied.

……

Let’s talk about the threshing floor. People used flails to beat the carpeted rice ears in circles and circles. It wasn’t until the lights in every household on the production team side were almost extinguished that they put down their farm tools and got half a bundle of straw. The grain stacks on one side of the threshing floor were hastily covered.

In case there is dew tomorrow, I will have to make space to dry it out.

The day's work has basically come to an end here, and everyone is free. He Laosi smokes a dry pipe leaning on the haystack, while the two aunts come to the edge of the bamboo bed.

It's a chat, they are the elders according to their age, so Lu Miao and Ren Bingxin got off the bed to make room for them.

The parents were short-lived, and they were busy talking about things in and outside the city. At this moment, Fu Jingyou came over with a pot of water and a pile of bowls.

"Oh, thank you, thank you!"

Folks in the countryside are so informal. After thanking each other, the two aunts took care of themselves and took the kettles to pour water. They did not forget to boast in their spare time:
"Xiao Liu, you are sincere and considerate. You just finished working and now you are thirsty."

After saying that, he turned to look at a few female educated youths on one side and said, "Comrade educated youths, are you thirsty too? Come on, there are bowls here! Come over here, drink some water and have a rest!"

Geng Xiaoyun and Gu Ying said "Hey" and lined up with bowls to pour water.

Fu Jingyou didn't answer the aunts' words, and stood silently beside him for a long time. Then he suddenly spoke in a low voice:

"The dates in front of my house are ripe. I'm going to bring some dates over for everyone to eat while resting."

This was said to everyone, but in the final analysis, Fu Jingyou just wanted to fulfill Lu Miao's little wish.

Fu Jingyou knew that, just like the cucumbers in front of the educated youth shop, Lu Miao had also been thinking about these dates for a long time.

 Where are the tickets? ~~~
