After having dinner at the Wei family's house, Bai Nuo returned to the educated youth compound. It was already getting dark when she got back. As she turned onto the road leading to the educated youth compound, she saw several figures in the distance. One of them was holding a flashlight and talking as he walked towards her.

"Bai Zhiqing?" Xie Weidong was the first to spot the person riding back on his bicycle and quickly spoke up.

Bai Nuo quickened her pace and arrived in front of her friends: "Why are you guys out at this hour?"

“We saw that you hadn’t come back by dark, and since Fang Zhiqing wasn’t around recently, we thought we’d come out to greet you.” Sun Yuxi looked the girl up and down, and seeing that she was perfectly fine and there was no trace of dirt or dust, she was relieved.

The news that Bai Nuo rode a tricycle to the brigade leader's house when she returned had already spread throughout the brigade. The group assumed that Bai Nuo was staying at the Wei family's house for dinner, so they weren't in a hurry. However, as it got later and later, although the Wei family's house wasn't far from the educated youth compound, it was still a bit worrying for a young woman to ride her tricycle back so late at night. After discussing it, the group decided to go out together to meet her at the Wei family's house.

Bai Nuo smiled at her friends and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just chatted with Sister Jiajia, which is why I came back late. Let's go back."

For the short distance back, Bai Nuo didn't ride her bike anymore. The bike was still loaded with a lot of things, including a large basket she had brought back from the county, and some things that Aunt Cui'e insisted on giving her. Pushing it was more tiring than riding it.

Eugene, ever perceptive, took the bicycle from Xie Weidong, who then removed the basket from the back seat and carried it on his own back.

The two men obediently stood behind the four women, while the four girls chattered and laughed as they walked home.

"Sigh, I have to go back to work tomorrow. I thought spring planting was tiring enough, but I didn't expect the work in June to be even more tiring. My palms have been burning from pulling weeds these past two days." Chao Xianhua said with red eyes and aggrieved voice.

She didn't want to cry; she swears she really didn't want to cry, but she couldn't control herself.

Bai Nuo turned to look at her best friend beside her, blinked gently, and felt she should comfort her. She raised her hand and patted Chao Xianhua's shoulder: "It's okay, now... Ugh!!!"

"Don't talk, please, I really don't need your comfort!" Chao Xianhua covered Bai Nuo's mouth, afraid that if she said the next word, her tears would be completely unstoppable.

She could never forget the day they arrived in the county town. One sentence from that girl almost made her cry on the spot. On the way to Qishui Brigade, she basically cried the whole way. It was so embarrassing.

Bai Nuo blinked innocently; she really just wanted to comfort her best friend.

"Pfft!" Sun Yuxi couldn't help but burst out laughing, leaning her head on Qin Xuehua's shoulder, her whole body shaking with laughter.

Qin Xuehua looked confused: "What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"

Sun Yuxi laughed as she told Qin Xuehua about what happened on the way there the day the three of them arrived.

"Xianhua was so pitiful back then, tears streaming down her face. Even the brigade leader and Grandpa Wei felt a little sorry for her. I finally managed to comfort her, but then Nuonuo said with a serious face: 'This is just the beginning. There are many more tough days ahead. You'd better stop crying and save your tears for later, hahaha!'"

Qin Xuehua couldn't help but burst out: "Pfft, hahaha!"

Eugene laughed as if he had some kind of illness: "Hahahaha, Bai, Bai Zhiqing, is that how you comfort people? And also, hahaha, flowers, how come you're crying so much that snot bubbles are coming out of your nose?"

Xie Weidong's lips twitched slightly as he tried to suppress his smile, but he finally gave in and laughed, his laughter shaking. "Bai Zhiqing, from now on, don't go comforting anyone other than our own people. I'm afraid they'll think you're being sarcastic towards her, and then we'll fight again, hehehehehe!"

Bai Nuo: "..."

Super Flowers: "..."

What's so funny? Are you all born knowing how to laugh?

Apart from the two people involved, everyone else was laughing uncontrollably. Eugene almost pushed his bicycle into the ditch by the roadside, but Xie Weidong, who was quick-witted and agile, pulled him back.

The group returned to the educated youth compound amidst laughter and chatter. After agreeing on a time to go to work together the next day, they each went back to their own small rooms.

After entering the house, Bai Nuo first sent Xiao Fugui to the space to be fed by 925. Then she cleaned the house inside and out, tidied up the vegetable garden in the backyard, and then went back to the house to lock the doors and windows, draw the curtains and the inner and outer curtains, and made the kang (heated brick bed) before finally entering the space.

"Host, the wine is ready!" As soon as Bai Nuo entered the hall on the first floor of the pavilion, he saw a large sealed wooden barrel on the ground, which was about half a person tall.

This is the liquor Bai Nuo brewed himself in his previous life, which he usually kept in the wine cellar in the basement of the building.

Her spatial pavilion also has a basement, which has three large rooms in total. One is a freezer, which Bai Nuo has hardly ever used, since her warehouse can keep things fresh forever. There is also a super large combination refrigerator upstairs.

One was a small storage room, which contained many of her everyday items from her previous life. The other was a wine cellar, which housed a collection of various famous wines that she had acquired in her previous life, as well as wines she had brewed herself.

There are still more than a dozen barrels of sorghum liquor in the cellar, including both high and low alcohol content, all brewed from grains produced in the space itself.

She plans to use this wine to make some medicinal wine, which she believes can be drunk regularly to strengthen the body and repair old ailments and injuries.
