When they arrived at the bus station, Gao Jianguo asked the girl to wait for him in the waiting room while he went to the restroom.

Shang Yanfang readily agreed.

Gao Jianguo then went to a place where Shang Yanfang couldn't see him and whispered something to a man.

The person who bullied his little girl wants to get away scot-free? They're dreaming.

Gao Jianguo patted the man on the shoulder one last time and then left.

Shang Yanfang and Gao Jianguo rode their bicycles back to Kaoshan Brigade from the commune courtyard.

Lin Huihui and Wu Gang moved to the thatched hut at the foot of the mountain, while Shang Guokang moved to the room his sister used to live in.

The weather is getting colder and colder. Today is the day for the whole brigade to harvest cabbage. As a staple vegetable in winter, the Kaoshan brigade has also planted a lot of cabbage.

"Yanfang, you don't need to go. I can go by myself," Gao Jianguo said while munching on a flatbread.

"I'll go with you. I don't have anything to do at home anyway." Shang Yanfang ate her breakfast in small bites.

"Okay then, remember to wear gloves when you go out later."

"Okay, I understand." The two dressed neatly and left the house.

"Let's harvest the cabbages today. We'll distribute them later," the brigade leader said, holding a mobilization meeting.

"Finally, the cabbages are ready to be harvested. We've been eating the kimchi we made last year for a long time."

"Yes, yes. We still have to eat cabbage. My husband loves cabbage." A group of middle-aged women said excitedly.

"Gao Jianguo, do you know how to make kimchi?"

"Yes, we still have half a jar of hot and sour cabbage at home. You like it, right?"

"I love it! I love eating it. How come I haven't had it even once in the last two months?" Shang Yanfang doesn't usually cook, so she really doesn't know what kind of things they have at home.

"I thought you didn't like it, so I never offered it to you. Anyway, Grandpa and I don't really like it," Gao Jianguo said calmly.

"How about we have kimchi for lunch?" Shang Yanfang looked at the man with starry eyes.

"Okay, let's have kimchi for lunch today." Gao Jianguo readily agreed.

"Sister, brother-in-law. What are we having for lunch?" Shang Guokang walked over at this moment. He had been eating at Gao Jian's house since his mother left.

"At noon, your sister said she wanted to eat spicy kimchi." Gao Jianguo also took good care of his brother-in-law.

"I quite like kimchi too."

"Is there anything you don't like to eat?" Shang Yanfang rolled her eyes at her younger brother and asked.

"Brother-in-law~ Look, my sister is bullying me."

"Alright, alright. Xiaokang, let's go harvest the cabbages!" Gao Jianguo interrupted the siblings' playful fight.

"Brother-in-law, how do we harvest these cabbages?"

"Use your hands to collect it, definitely not your feet."

"Alright, alright. I'll demonstrate how to close it like this. You two should learn from this." Seeing that the two were about to start fighting again, Gao Jianguo quickly stopped them.

"Just use the sickle to cut the cabbage at the base," Gao Jianguo explained as he demonstrated.

"Have you learned it?" Gao Jianguo asked the two men after cutting several cabbages.

"I've learned it, brother-in-law."

"I've learned it." Both of them gave their answers.

"Then you two give it a try, but be careful not to cut yourselves." Gao Jianguo immediately had the two of them start doing it.

"Is that so, brother-in-law?" Shang Guokang chopped directly at the root of the cabbage.

"That's right, but you need to lower it a bit more." Gao Jianguo explained to Shang Guokang very carefully.

“Like this…” After listening to the explanation, Shang Guokang chopped down another one.

"Okay, that's fine then." Gao Jianguo said, and then told his brother-in-law to continue harvesting cabbages.

"Jianguo, Jianguo. Look, look how well I chopped this!" Shang Yanfang said, holding up a cabbage she had painstakingly chopped down.

Looking at the cabbage that his little girl Rouli had treated so badly, Gao Jianguo praised, "It's pretty good..."

"Let me see, let me see!" Shang Guokang rushed over as well.

"Here, take a look." Shang Yanfang handed the cabbage directly to Shang Guokang.

Shang Guokang looked at the cabbage that his sister had chopped several times because she wasn't strong enough; the root was already pitted and the outermost leaves were badly damaged. He really admired his brother-in-law's ability to lie through his teeth.

"Shang, how did you collect these cabbages? They won't keep like this." The scorekeeper looked at the cabbages in Shang Guokang's hand and was very disappointed in him.

"Um... this..." Shang Yanfang wanted to explain, but didn't know how to start.

"Jianguo's wife, you don't need to explain to your brother anymore. You can't harvest cabbages like this. Blah blah blah, blah blah blah." The scorekeeper told Shang Yanfang the consequences of cutting up a whole basket of cabbages.

Then I saw Gao Jianguo and Shang Guokang quickly chopping cabbages in the field.

The scorekeeper quickly went over, picked up a cabbage that Shang Guokang had chopped, and examined it carefully.

"This is fine. You seem to have a strong learning ability, young man. You can take that cabbage home later!" The scorekeeper said and left.

Shang Yanfang stood there awkwardly, holding the cabbage.

"Yanfang, take a rest for a while. I'll help you harvest the cabbages later," Gao Jianguo said to Shang Yanfang.

"Oh, okay," Shang Yanfang said blankly. She sat down on the ground next to her, holding the cabbage.

By mid-morning, most of the cabbages in the field had been harvested. Gao Jianguo carried the only cabbage that Shang Yanfang had picked back home.

"How about I cook today?" Shang Yanfang felt sorry for Gao Jianguo, who had been working hard all day.

"Sister, please don't. Don't go into the kitchen," Shang Guokang said excitedly.

"I'll do it, I'm not tired," Gao Jianguo said, rubbing the little girl's head.

At noon, Gao Jianguo stir-fried the cabbage he had brought back, along with some meat and a dish of spicy cabbage.

"It's delicious, this kimchi tastes great." Shang Yanfang was the first to pick up some kimchi.

"Girl, eat more if you like it." Grandpa Chen really liked this kind of child who could eat a lot.

"Grandpa, you should eat too, have some meat." Shang Yanfang put a piece of meat on Grandpa Chen's plate.

"Okay, okay, I'll eat it."

"Sister, this cabbage is delicious, but it's quite sour." Shang Guokang also picked up a piece of cabbage and ate it.

"Eating can't shut your mouth. I say it's delicious, and that's it." Shang Yanfang directly used her bloodline power to suppress her younger brother.

Shang Guokang quietly stopped eating and didn't say anything more, while Shang Yanfang had a particular fondness for the spicy cabbage dish.

"Gao Jianguo, I want more." Soon, Shang Yanfang finished the plate of spicy cabbage.

"Eat, eat, eat, are you a pig? How can you eat so much?" Shang Guokang could never control his loose tongue.
