His Tangtang.
Only he can water it.
………………………………
After an unknown amount of time, when the two opened their eyes again, the sun was already high in the sky outside.
Ruan Tang felt full of power, and even the bottleneck of the fourth level of Qi Refining loosened a bit.
She turned around in surprise, wanting to share it with Yan Yu.
Yan Yu lowered his head first and gently wiped away the fine sweat from the tip of her nose with his calloused fingertips.
His movements were extremely light, and his gaze was so focused that it seemed he wanted to etch her into his very bones.
After doing all this, he took her hand, and with a thought, the two returned to the quiet courtyard.
The courtyard gate was tightly locked, isolating it from the outside world.
Ruan Tang stretched out a big yawn, feeling refreshed, and started thinking about what to eat for lunch.
The sound of a tractor, "putt-putt-putt," came from afar, breaking the tranquility of the village.
Immediately afterwards, a commotion arose at the village entrance, accompanied by the loud voice of the brigade leader, Chen Fengshan.
"What are you all looking at! Don't you need to go home and cook?!"
"Hurry up and move the stuff down! Sixth Brother, take them to those three empty rooms next to the cowshed at the west end of the village!"
Ruan Tang's curiosity was immediately piqued.
She ran to the gate of the courtyard, stood on tiptoe, and tried to peek out through the crack in the door.
Yan Yu strode over, stretched out his arm, and scooped her up from the ground, gently placing her in the crook of his strong arm.
Now, the view opened up completely.
Captain Chen Fengshan had a dark face, followed by five men who looked disheveled.
An old man with gray hair and thick glasses stood ramrod straight, his expression blank.
A woman in her fifties, with a sallow complexion, clutched a tattered cloth bag tightly and followed closely behind the old man.
A man in his sixties, with a righteous face, whose disheveled appearance couldn't hide his military bearing.
Finally, there was a couple. The tall, thin man with glasses was protecting a petite woman. The woman was buried in his arms, sobbing.
His luggage consisted of a few worn-out suitcases and patched canvas bags, which seemed out of place in the village.
"Oh my, who are these people?"
"Judging by his appearance, he must be a bad element from the city!"
“I heard from my husband that not only our brigade, but also a few people from Wujia Village next door were assigned there! That place is much worse than ours, being assigned there is really bad luck!”
Every word of the discussion reached Ruan Tang's ears.
People who were sent down to the countryside.
She blinked, finding this play far more interesting than Jin Yuhong going mad.
These people, you can tell at a glance, have a lot of stories to tell.
Yan Yu sensed the little girl's focus in his arms, glanced at her in the direction of her gaze, and frowned almost imperceptibly.
