He Tingyuan didn't have a deep impression of Su Xiuxiu, but Xie Yunheng was a little more familiar with her. This girl was quite popular in the front yard, usually spoke gently, and was very caring towards them.

Xie Yunheng didn't think much of it, just thinking that she was really worried about their future meals. "It's okay, we can cook for ourselves, or go to a fellow villager's house to share a meal. We've been here for more than half a year, so we should know some nice families."

You won’t starve to death after all!

Su Xiuxiu glanced at the two of them, then smiled softly and explained, "Actually, no one meant any harm. We were just joking. You don't have to take it to heart. It's normal for everyone to have some conflicts occasionally. They will pass when you wake up. Why don't you guys eat with us?"

Xie Yunheng knew that He Tingyuan was really angry this time and was afraid that he would not agree. "No need, we have a way to solve it, don't worry."

Seeing that the two wanted to leave, Su Xiuxiu said again, "How about we female comrades prepare the meal and pack a portion for you so you can take it home and eat it?"

After hearing what she said, Xie Yunheng refused, "Thank you for your kindness. If you really do that, wouldn't that be even more like a capitalist?"

Su Xiuxiu quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant..."

Xie Yunheng comforted her, "I know you mean well. Okay, go back."

Seeing He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng's firm attitude, Su Xiuxiu could only bite her lip and leave first.

The people in the backyard had no idea what was happening in the front yard.

When the two returned, it was already dark. Everyone in the backyard had already packed up and returned to their rooms.

The next morning, Shen Xiaoxia, Han Zhuxin and others heard about what happened in the front yard last night, and they all felt a little sympathy for the two of them.

Xie Yunheng looked at everyone sitting together and said with a bit of sadness, "Hey, we haven't found breakfast yet. I'm afraid we'll be hungry."

Everyone knew that he was deliberately playing the victim, but knowing their situation, they didn't really ignore them. When they made breakfast, they took their portion with them.

Shen Xiaoxia asked them, "What are your plans?"

Xie Yunheng glanced at He Tingyuan, then at everyone else. "That's a good question. We don't know either."

It’s okay to make a decision directly without thinking of a way out!

Several people gave thumbs up to the two of them at the same time!

He Tingyuan said, "After all, we are not on the same path. It's only a matter of time."

It has nothing to do with whether one is rich or poor, it’s just that one’s personality and vision are indeed not on the same level. The longer the time goes, the deeper the conflict will become.

Then he said to Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin, "We plan to try to make a fire ourselves first. Before we get the stove and pot ready, can we borrow yours?"

Both Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin nodded to indicate that it was no problem.

Xie Yunheng seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said meaningfully, "Hey, I wonder if saving my life can be exchanged for some guidance."

Han Zhuxin glanced at him and asked, "What kind of guidance do you want?"

"What do I need to prepare to cook? What vegetables are available in different seasons? How do I start the fire? How do I cut and cook the vegetables? What seasonings are needed?"

When everyone heard him say this, they couldn't help laughing, but Han Zhuxin had a stern face and looked at him without saying a word.

Zhao Lingling, who was watching the fun, said, "Thank you for saving my life! I think I need some guidance." Then she turned to Shen Xiaoxia and asked, "Xiaoxia, what do you think?"

Shen Xiaoxia held back her laughter, “+1”!

Zhao Fan: “+2”!

Han Zhuxin stopped glaring at Xie Yunheng and turned to tickle Zhao Lingling and Shen Xiaoxia, "You are a bunch of traitors!"

Zhao Lingling and Shen Xiaoxia laughed and stretched out their hands to block. Han Zhuxin's two fists were no match for four hands. His arms were tied by the two men and he couldn't move. He rolled his eyes at them in anger.

The yard was bustling with activity when Hu Shixuan led Jiang Yan over.

When he walked in and saw the joy in the yard, he laughed and joked, "Wow, it's so lively! Did I miss some good show?"

Zhao Fan hadn't seen Jiang Yan for a while. This time, seeing him and Hu Shixuan coming together, he smiled and greeted them.

He had dealt with Jiang Yan several times and asked him for help. In addition, Jiang Yan occasionally came to the Youth League Home with Hu Shixuan, so they became familiar with each other.

Shen Xiaoxia's heart skipped a beat when she suddenly saw Jiang Yan appear in the yard!

Subconsciously, he loosened his hand that was holding Han Zhuxin's arm and stood still. Seeing that there were outsiders coming, Zhao Lingling and Han Zhuxin stopped making a fuss.

He Tingyuan, Xie Yunheng and Han Zhuxin met Jiang Yan for the first time, and they were all a little curious about who this young man with excellent looks and temperament was!

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on Jiang Yan, Hu Shixuan walked over to the group and introduced them, "This is Jiang Yan, from our village."

He Tingyuan was a little surprised that there was such an outstanding young man in the village. He nodded and said, "Hello, my name is He Tingyuan."

Several others also spoke up to say hello.

Jiang Yan glanced at everyone and said, "Hello."

After introducing each other, Hu Shixuan asked what had happened just now and why everyone was so happy.

Xie Yunheng smiled and recounted what had just happened, and also briefly mentioned what happened last night.

Although Hu Shixuan usually ate in the front yard, it was not very often. He had a good relationship with Jiang Yan's family. Even if Jiang Yan was not at home, he would often go there to eat. In addition, he would go to the mountain to have a snack from time to time.

Although Xie Yunheng didn't say anything specific, he could guess the whole story, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Hu Shixuan asked Xie Yunheng, "You just said you want to set up a stove, right?"

Xie Yunheng nodded, "Yes, we need to build a stove and go to the village to find someone to help."

Hu Shixuan pointed at Jiang Yan and said with a smile, "Hey, he can do it. You can go find him. His skills are quite good!"

Before today, he wouldn't have dared to guarantee it, but now, he was sure that Jiang Yan would not refuse.

He had noticed that Jiang Yan's attitude towards Shen Xiaoxia was a little different before, so after knowing that Shen Xiaoxia wanted a stove, he tried to bring it up. Jiang Yan knew that he was saying it on purpose for him to hear, but he still followed him over.

After Hu Shixuan finished speaking, not only did the others not believe it, but Shen Xiaoxia also had a skeptical expression. Is Jiang Yan so powerful?

is that a lie?

Jiang Yan came over, originally wanting to find an opportunity to ask Shen Xiaoxia about the stove. When he heard Hu Shixuan say this, he did not refute.

Glancing at the expression on Shen Xiaoxia's face, he turned and asked He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng, "It's not difficult to set up a stove. I know how to do it. Where do you want to set it up? What kind of stove do you want to set up?"

He Tingyuan glanced up and down at Jiang Yan again. This man didn't look any older than them. Could it really be possible?

He Tingyuan was taught since childhood that he had the ability to judge people, if not perfect, at least 70% or 80%.

Between Hu Shixuan and Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan obviously holds the dominant position. He and Hu Shixuan have known each other for more than half a year, so he has a certain understanding of him. To be able to make Hu Shixuan admit his respect and bow down to him, Jiang Yan must have extraordinary abilities in handling affairs or in his personality.

He Tingyuan thought for a moment when he asked, then asked Han Zhuxin and Shen Xiaoxia, "Can the small kitchen accommodate another stove?"

Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin looked at each other, and Han Zhuxin said, "Originally it was possible, but we stuffed a lot of food and firewood in there, so it might be a little difficult now. If you want to sell it, we can move the things out."

Shen Xiaoxia also said that if that didn't work, she and Han Zhuxin would rent the room next to Han Zhuxin's where they were temporarily storing firewood, and use it exclusively to store food and firewood in the future.

Although it was a bit high-profile, the two really didn't want to cram so many things into the room, as it would look suffocating.
