After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life

For the next twenty days or so, Shen Xiaoxia helped everyone plant wheat and sweet potatoes.

Shen Xiaoxia, Han Zhuxin, He Tingyuan, Xie Yunheng and other new educated youth gradually integrated into Baihua Village and got used to doing farm work every day.

Maybe they found the knack of farm work, maybe they adapted to it, or maybe their physical fitness and other aspects improved, but everyone gradually felt less tired than at the beginning.

Occasionally, we can get together and chat and talk about the interesting experiences we have encountered. We are all teenagers around 17 or 18 years old, and we have become familiar with each other after getting along with each other.

Compared with the relationship in the front yard, the people in the backyard are obviously more familiar with each other.

After finishing the wheat and sweet potato planting, the team leader announced that everyone could have two days of rest.

Of course, you can also choose not to rest. You can get work points by working, and you have to exchange the work points for food during the autumn harvest. Unless there are special circumstances, people in the village will not rest.

Shen Xiaoxia asked the others, and found out that Han Zhuxin, He Tingyuan, and Xie Yunheng all planned to rest and wanted to go to the county town. Shen Xiaoxia also planned to go, so the four of them made an appointment to go together.

After being here for a month, Shen Xiaoxia decided to send a letter back home, otherwise her mother at home would be worried.

Shen Xiaoxia wrote down everything that happened after she arrived at the Youth League Home in detail, except for the parts that she could not say.

I told my family that I was doing well here and that they didn't have to worry. I lived in a separate place, a brick and tile house.

He also learned how to do farm work and grow vegetables from the aunties in the village. He also said that he had cultivated two small vegetable plots behind the yard where he lived and grew vegetables for his own consumption.

She did not stand out, and her daily work points were only slightly higher than the minimum standard. She also made sure to eat enough every day, telling her family not to worry, that she would take good care of herself, and that they should not worry too much about her.

I wrote two pages of paper in total.

She went to bed early at night, and got up at around five o'clock the next day.

Only by getting up early can you take the ox cart to the county town. The ox cart will leave when it is full. If you don't get up early, you may miss it. Moreover, the ox cart is not available every day. At this time, oxen are precious and it is impossible to take people to the county town every day. Most people go to the county town by foot.

Shen Xiaoxia simply washed up and went out.

Han Zhuxin, He Tingyuan, Xie Yunheng and the others were also ready, and the four of them went to the village head together to ride on the ox cart.

When Shen Xiaoxia and her three companions arrived, two aunts were already sitting on the ox cart. Shen Xiaoxia had never seen them before. The four of them paid ten cents each to the driver and found a seat on the ox cart.

The bus was full in no time, and when it was full, the old man set off on his oxcart. It takes more than an hour to get to the county town by oxcart, and at least two hours if you walk.

As the ox cart moved forward, in the early morning of May, the country road was like a ribbon, cleverly connecting the vast fields and scattered villages.

Every detail on the road is vivid and real. The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and falls on the soft soil, creating mottled light and shadows.

The quaint stones, the wild flowers swaying by the roadside, the birds singing on the branches, and the occasional barking of dogs in the distance seem like the most delicate brushstrokes of nature.

The village in the distance is looming in the rising smoke, like an ink painting. Walking among it is like walking in the rhythm of the times.

Shen Xiaoxia was in high spirits, enjoying the scenery along the way.

When they arrived at the county town, they agreed with the driver to return to the village, and then the four of them decided to go to a state-owned restaurant for breakfast.

Shen Xiaoxia thought that she finally had the chance to go and see the state-owned restaurant that appeared in every period novel!

When they arrived at the restaurant, they found that there were still many people queuing up to order food. He Tingyuan looked at the remaining empty seats in the restaurant and said to Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin, "Why don't you two find an empty table and sit down first? Yun Heng and I will go to queue up."

When Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin heard him say that, they both nodded in agreement.

After giving the money and tickets to He Tingyuan, Shen Xiaoxia said she wanted two meat buns and a cup of soy milk. After hearing this, Han Zhuxin also said that she wanted the same thing as Shen Xiaoxia.

While He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng were waiting in line, Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin found an empty seat and sat down waiting for them.

Han Zhuxin asked Shen Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, what are you going to do later?"

Shen Xiaoxia wanted to mail a letter first, so she said, "I'm going to the post office first, send a letter home, and then go look around somewhere else. What about you?"

Han Zhuxin studied fashion design before traveling through time. She had two pieces of clothing designed by her in her backpack. She had made some changes to suit the times and planned to test the waters today to see if she could develop her business.

When Shen Xiaoxia asked about it, she didn't dare to tell the truth, so she just said that she planned to go to the department store to have a look.

Shen Xiaoxia didn't ask further questions, because everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell.

When it was He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng's turn to get their meals, Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin both ran over and brought the food to the table. Xie Yunheng ordered a serving of fresh meat dumplings, and He Tingyuan ordered a bowl of shredded pork noodles.

After getting the meat bun, Shen Xiaoxia took a big bite. The rich aroma of meat filled her mouth and it tasted great.

She couldn't help but sigh, he was indeed a master chef from a state-owned restaurant, the meat buns tasted much better and were much larger than the ones stored in her space!

Shen Xiaoxia was very satisfied with the two meat buns!

After eating and drinking, He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng left together, and Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin also went their separate ways and set off to their respective destinations.

Shen Xiaoxia asked a few people on the road and found the post office.

When buying stamps, Shen Xiaoxia thought of the fact that many female protagonists in historical novels would collect stamps. It was said that some stamps were recalled and destroyed shortly after they were issued, and became very valuable in later generations. Shen Xiaoxia did not have a specific understanding of this period of history, so she didn't know which type it was.

Although she didn't know, Shen Xiaoxia still decided to buy more stamps and save them. It didn't matter even if they were worthless later. She could just consider them as her own collection. Anyway, stamps were not expensive now.

I said to the girl selling stamps, "Comrade, I want to buy a little of each type of stamp, is that okay?"

Seeing that it was a pretty girl asking the question, the little girl smiled and said, "I can buy it, but what do you want so many stamps for?"

"I like collecting these things, so I want to buy some of them. Just consider it as doing me a favor!" Shen Xiaoxia looked at her with a smile and secretly stuffed three candies into her hand.

The little girl glanced at the candy in her hand and smiled happily at Shen Xiaoxia, "You like to collect these things. If there are new stamps in the future, I will keep a copy for you."

"That's great. Thank you very much." Shen Xiaoxia didn't expect that three candies would have such a big effect, and she smiled happily.

In the end, Shen Xiaoxia spent eight yuan to buy a stack of stamps, and put them into the space under the cover of the backpack.
