Chapter 488: Chapter 40: All of You, Go to School

Chu River happily took the money and dragged the cart back home. Now that the money was in hand, there was no need to rush on the return trip.

At around three or four in the afternoon, the sun was scorching hot. On the long and desolate dirt road, a petite girl was grasping the handlebars with both hands, step by step pulling the heavy cart forward...

Along the way, a bicycle passed by, ridden by a young man with a large green shoulder bag. He stared at this stranger’s leisurely back, and suddenly a surge of melancholy and pride filled his heart—

Look!

This is our diligent and simple working class!

This is our tough but hopeful life today!

He pulled out a camera from his pocket, aimed it at the distance, and with a "click," captured this thought-provoking photo.

Chu River had no idea that one day she would appear in the provincial newspaper, eventually accompanied by an evocative and tear-jerking report that would be reprinted by the People’s Daily...

She was just pondering—

The sun is so big, should she start running?

So, after the reporter, inspired, wrote a series of passionate and heartfelt passages in his notebook, he set off on his bicycle again, rode for a long time, and still couldn’t find the laborer from before.

Sigh...

He felt genuinely melancholy.

Because he thought he lacked a real face-to-face report, but... sometimes, the more empty space you leave, the more it makes people think deeply.

The reporter stopped his bicycle, looked at the long and empty dirt road, pulled out the handkerchief from his already soaked shirt, and daintily wiped his sweat—

Return trip!

This report, he wanted to show it to all the people in the province!

...

And when Chu River returned home, sweating profusely, she saw that Da Dan had already diligently covered the area around the water pump with gravel.

The yard hadn’t been done yet, but the weeds chopped down yesterday were all sun-dried. Several empty jars in the corner had been moved and moved again, finding a shady spot—

They would be very useful here!

The house didn’t need water jars; the kitchen had a large wooden bucket for temporary use. With a few pottery jars left, Da Dan planned to use them here to pickle vegetables! He had heard that the winters in Ning City were very cold.

On the clothesline outside the yard, new clothes were fluttering, including several pieces of underwear pieced together in black, gray, green, and blue, all hung out in the open.

Da Dan finished washing things in the storage room, and then glanced outside the yard—since there were no neighbors around, did all the vegetables need to be planted inside?

The sound of his mental calculations was almost audible, and he looked up at the clothes, dried hard by the sun, and quickly took them down while praising his aunt’s good foresight— 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Living in a remote area was great!

Otherwise, with the recent incessant shopping and making new clothes, the neighbors would definitely wonder where they got the money from.

Humph!

This bunch of people had no idea how Aunt made money; most people simply couldn’t learn it.

...

Yun Baoni was in the room with the sewing machine, helping Daya with the threading. Watching her new clothes gradually taking shape with the "da-da-da" sound of the machine, her hands moved faster.

She couldn’t help but admire, "Sister Daya, you know so much!"

No one knew how this title came about, as she was actually a year older than Daya when they compared birth dates. But gradually, during work, the title "sister" naturally came into use.

Daya felt it was appropriate too.

With Yun Baoni’s slender arms and legs, she couldn’t be called lazy but was still far behind her. As the elder sister, she had to teach well...

Like now.

"This isn’t much, I came so hastily that I didn’t learn many things, like making shoes or knitting sweaters and pants... Sigh!"

Yun Baoni: ...

She was eager—

"I... I want to learn too."

Everyone had new skills, so she should have them too!

Daya glanced at her and naturally said, "Of course you should learn. You don’t have much strength, you can’t tidy things up fast enough, so you should only do the delicate work. Making shoes and knitting doesn’t take much effort; when you get good, you can give the knitted stuff to Auntie, and she will definitely pay you a salary!"

She proudly said, "Aunt said my skill in making clothes was great, and she gives me 5 bucks a month."

Five bucks!

Yun Baoni was thrilled all over.

She clenched her fist, recalling how she had heard that Daya learned such skills from others, and now she made up her mind—

Next time Aunt Li comes to ask about their situation, she would say she wanted to learn knitting to properly thank Uncle Shi and the others...
