When Old Man Xie and Xie Youhe came out, they saw what Lin's mother had prepared for them and became angry. In the end, it was Lin Yunchu who comforted them.

He simply said that the family had extra supplies and was just using it as an excuse to honor their elders. After saying that, he winked at Xie Ping and Xie An, asking them to join in persuading Old Man Xie.

Only then did he reluctantly agree, but he still scolded Lin's mother a few words, telling her not to live like this in the future and not to give everything away.

Mother Lin was afraid that Old Man Xie would not feel at ease when he returned, so she nodded repeatedly.

"Mom, I'll send Grandpa and Second Uncle back first."

After they had finished speaking, Lin Changting smiled and spoke to Lin's mother.

"Okay, be careful on the way and come back as soon as you've delivered it. Otherwise, it will be dark soon."

Mother Lin was worried that Old Man Xie and the others would be tired walking back, and she was also worried that Lin Changting would come back late and it would be unsafe for him to travel at night. She couldn't help but give them another reminder out of concern.

"Oh, I understand, Mom."

Lin Changan raised his head, his eyes bright as stars, and his face full of smiles.

Then he turned around, looked at Old Man Xie and others on the ox cart, and saw that they were all seated firmly. Then he waved the whip in his hand and drove the ox cart towards Xiejia Village.

Lin Yunchu watched the ox cart go farther and farther away. Lin's mother was still standing in front of the gate, tiptoeing and looking around, with a worried look on her face.

"Mother, don't worry. My uncle and his family are doing good business at their stall in town. I'll go to town in a few days to buy some food and send it to Grandpa and his family. I'm sure they won't have a hard time."

The Xie family used two plots of land to grow potatoes, so there wasn't much land left to grow crops. Now they sent the potatoes to the Lin family. In previous years, the food they had was barely enough to keep them half full.

I'm afraid there is even less food now, but judging from Old Man Xie's reaction just now, if we give them food now, I'm afraid they won't accept it even if we persuade them to do so.

It would be better to wait for a few more days. Then she would go to the town to buy some and ask her eldest brother to transport them over in a bullock cart. She could then find an excuse.

This way, neither side will be in trouble, and the Xie family will not be short of food. It is a best of both worlds.

Hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin's mother's eyes suddenly lit up. This was what she had been worried about. Her father was very stubborn. She knew that her father would refuse to accept the money and food no matter what, so she was very worried.

As for what Yun Chu said, there is no rush at the moment, just wait a little longer.

Seeing the smile on Lin's mother's face, Lin Yunchu finally put his worries aside.

It would not be difficult to send some food to the Xie family in the future. The Xie family was not having a good time, but they were still thinking about the Lin family's need for potatoes.

As soon as the harvest came in, they hurriedly sent it over. Perhaps because they were worried that the Lin family would not accept it, they carried it here in the scorching sun.

After dinner, everyone in the Lin family saw that Lin Changting had not returned yet, so they kept the food left for him warm in the pot, waiting for him to come back and eat it.

Just when everyone was waiting anxiously, Lin Changting finally arrived just as it was getting dark.

"You kid, didn't you say you would send your grandpa and the others home and then come back? Why are you here so late? It's already dark."

When Lin's mother saw Lin Changting walking into the house, she finally felt relieved. She got up and went to the kitchen to bring out the dinner left for him, while she couldn't help but complain.

Lin Changting knew that it was because he came back late that made his family worried. He hung his head and listened to his mother's mumbling with a smile, not daring to say a word.

It was not until Lin's mother brought dinner and stopped talking that he began to explain.

"When I arrived at the Xie family's house, my grandfather held me back and wouldn't let me leave, so I went in and sat for a while."

Thinking of the situation when he first arrived at the Xie family, Lin Changting raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and couldn't help but chuckle as he continued, "I also asked my uncle and aunt about the recent stall situation, and my aunt said."

"Last time, Yun Chu taught her a new bun flavor, and it sold very well. Many people come to buy it every day."

Because they were worried that the taste would be monotonous, Lin Yunchu mentioned it to Zhao when he went back to town last time. After Zhao went back, she and Li and Xie Chunjiao tried to make it. Unexpectedly, it was really good.

Now, there are more people coming to the Xie family’s stall every day to buy buns, so the Xie family’s daily income has increased.

Hearing Lin Changting's words, Lin's mother immediately raised her eyebrows. Knowing that the Xie family's stall was doing good business, she was happy in her heart. She immediately forgot about complaining about Lin Changting coming home late. She sat aside and listened to Lin Changting talking about the Xie family with great interest.

Lin Yunchu sat aside and watched quietly, but he was thinking about going to the bamboo forest in the back mountain tomorrow to see if there were any bamboo shoots growing.

The bamboo shoots supplied to Yipintang last year sold very well, and Manager Zhou mentioned it to her a couple of days ago. As luck would have it, she had nothing to do tomorrow, so she thought of taking a walk in the bamboo forest in the back mountain.

After sleeping all night and having breakfast, Lin Yunchu packed his backpack, filled a bamboo tube with water, took a small hoe and prepared to go to the back mountain.

Lin's father and Lin Changting were too busy to work in the fields. Lin's mother and Pan Xiuxiu were also helping out in the workshop next door, so Lin Yunchu planned to go alone.

I don’t know how many times I have been to this back mountain with the Lin family last year. However, very few people go there on weekdays, so Lin Yunchu has nothing to worry about.

Just as I opened the gate, I met an unexpected person.

Lu Yanzhou was holding a few books and calligraphy books he brought back for Lin Changan and was about to knock on the door, but he didn't expect the Lin family's gate to open directly, and the person who came into his sight was Lin Yunchu.

Looking at Lin Yunchu carrying a backpack, he seemed to be going out.

"Brother Yanzhou, why are you back?"

Having just met him in the bookstore a few days ago, Lin Yunchu didn't expect to see him returning to the village today. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

However, the two of them were familiar with each other, and they immediately reacted, raised the corners of their mouths and asked.

Hearing Lin Yunchu's question, Lu Yanzhou pursed his lips, his expression calm and unperturbed, and replied lightly: "Well... take a rest!"

He was still so quiet. Lin Yunchu raised his eyes slightly. If he had not had frequent dealings with the Lu family and was not familiar with Lu Yanzhou's character, he would have been frightened by his indifferent look.

"You're going out, why don't you see anyone else?"

Lu Yanzhou knew that when Lin Yunchu went out, there would always be someone following her, and the Lin family was very caring towards her.

Lin Yunchu's eyes flickered, and he had no intention of hiding anything. He said softly, "I just wanted to go to the back mountain to see if the bamboo shoots have grown. My eldest brother, second brother, and father are all busy in the fields."
