Quick Travel: Is it OK to recycle yourself?

The road to the Taoist temple halfway up the mountain is not for driving. It is a small path that is trampled out by people. If you want to stay halfway up the mountain, you have to carry your luggage up.

Before Qu Nannan entered the village, she put all the things she brought back in the car, otherwise she couldn't come back empty-handed and suddenly create so many things. There is no space device here that can hold all those things. If she really did that, the villagers would be scared to death.

"Thank you, aunties and grandmothers."

Auntie Wu is a person who likes to talk and has strong appeal. She waved her hand and said, "Why thank me? This is how it is in our village. If a family has problems, everyone will help together."

"Okay, there's nothing to do here, let's go downstairs and have lunch. Nannan, go to Auntie Wu's house and she'll cook meat for you."

A little old lady rushed to say, "Come to my house. I just bought some pig's trotters today and have them stewed in the pot. I remember my daughter really likes to eat pig's trotters."

"Come to my house, and then we can catch a fish from the pond and stew it for dinner."

They started scrambling for the food. One of them talked about what delicious food was at home, and another talked about what delicious food was prepared at home. Qu Nannan was stunned. When she came back yesterday, the villagers were also very enthusiastic, but were they too enthusiastic today?

"Aunts and grandmas, please stop arguing. I will go back and have dinner with Grandma in a while. I will visit you all in your homes when I have the chance in the future."

"Why are you still being different from us, kid? Just be like when we were kids. Back then, we wouldn't just stand guard at the door of a house that had something delicious."

“Hahahaha…” The women laughed happily when talking about their children when they were young, and Qu Nannan also laughed.

In the original body's memory, there was such a thing. Children of similar age as them were naughty and greedy. If the aroma of stewed meat wafted from someone's house, a group of them would squat at the door of the person's house, smell it and drool.

Sometimes I could get a piece of meat to eat, and then I would be happy and smiling all day long.

"Once I'm settled, I'll definitely go to each of my aunts and grandmothers' houses to ask for something delicious to eat."

"That's a deal then."

Qu Nannan didn't take it seriously. She is so old now, but she can still act like a child.

The group went down the mountain quickly, laughing and joking. When they arrived at the village, Qu Nannan waved goodbye and went to grandma's house. The old lady was sitting in the yard waiting for Qu Nannan.

"What would you like to eat for lunch, grandma? I'll make it for you."

"You kid, did you go straight back to the Taoist temple?"

"Well, I thought about going back to see if there's anything missing."

"Let's not cook at noon. Let's go directly to your village chief's house to eat. Your village chief's grandmother said that she had stewed chicken soup for you to nourish your body. You should nourish yourself well. Look how thin you are." I don't know how much hardship you have endured outside.

It would be fine to go to the village chief's house for dinner: "Okay, let's go and have a good meal. Today is a good day, and everyone is vying to treat me to a meal."

The old lady patted Qu Nannan's hand and said, "You, from now on, when people in the village bring you food, fruits, vegetables, etc., just accept them. Don't be too polite to them. Just be the same as before."

"That won't work. Every family is not rich. If I eat one more bite, they will eat one less bite. How can I take advantage of them like this?"

"You, kid, have spent so much money to build roads and a primary school in the village. They don't know how to thank you. If you don't let them pay something, they will feel uneasy. You should just take it and make the villagers feel better."

This involves the question of character. Some people can accept gifts from others very well and may even say, "She is so rich, so what's wrong with her giving a little?"

But some people will be more grateful for the help of others, and will always remember this kindness, always thinking about giving something back, otherwise they will feel uneasy. Obviously, the villagers of Taoziwu are the latter, and they know how to be content and grateful.

"I know grandma, I am a member of the village, and this is what we young people should do."

The old lady touched Qu Nannan's head and said, "It's not about right or wrong. There are not many young people in the village. Why don't others think about these things? It's not too much or too little. It depends on whether you have the heart."

"That's all. Some things can be dealt with in a timely manner. Taoziwu is not just your home. Remember that?"

"I remember Grandma, luckily you are here to remind me."

"You were raised by grandma, so you are no different from her own children. You are really generous. You just took out so much money. I don't know how hard it was to earn it."

"Have you emptied your pockets? These are grandma's private money. You can use them first. Don't mistreat yourself because of the village affairs. Look at you, you were so chubby when you left, but now you've become so thin." The old lady took a handkerchief bag and put it in Qu Nannan's hand.

How could Qu Nannan ask the old lady for money? The old lady had no other income and all her money was saved from her teeth. She quickly put the handkerchief into the old woman's pocket and held it to prevent her from taking it out.

"Grandma, please keep the money. I have enough money to spend. It was hard at the beginning, but after I learned how to make money, it became much easier. Don't worry. I will get fat soon after I take good care of myself."

"Really? You didn't lie to grandma?" The old lady was skeptical. She looked at the child's sallow face and saw that he was suffering.

"Really, I won't lie to you, grandma. I really don't lack money to spend. It's just that I was too busy before and forgot to eat on time. I just need to take good care of myself when I come back."

"That's good. It's hard for you as a child. Not only do you have to support yourself, but you also have to take care of the village. Let's go to your village chief's house and have some delicious food."

Qu Nannan supported the old lady and walked slowly towards the village chief's house. Everyone they met on the way would stop and say a few words to Qu Nannan, with expressions of gratitude on their faces. Qu Nannan couldn't describe the feeling in her heart, as she had never experienced these worldly ways.

In comparison, people of Mercury are more indifferent, and it seems that they care less about the people around them than they do about exotic animals.

During the meal, Li Ankang poured a drink for Qu Nannan: "Come, Brother Kangzi will give you a drink. Thank you for helping the village solve the two biggest problems. I believe that our village will gradually get better in the future."

Qu Nannan also smiled and raised the drink cup in her hand: "Brother Kangzi is right. In the future, our village will be better. Those who go out to work will be able to come back and live a good life with their elderly and children at home."
