"Wait for me here. I’ll go tell the others, and we can talk back at the base," Jiang Yihua said, then glanced again at the kids popping goat droppings into their mouths and made a firm decision.

After speaking to Chi Yun’er, he carried his things, walked a few more steps along the ridges of the field, and called out a greeting. Amidst everyone’s suggestive smiles, he shook his head helplessly and turned back.

The farm base wasn’t too far from there. The two walked in silence for about seven or eight minutes before they could faintly see the cluster of buildings.

Jiang Yihua couldn’t help but let out a low chuckle. "Chi, since you came all this way, you might as well say what’s on your mind. I’m not a fan of guessing games."

Chi Yun’er walked leisurely with her hands behind her back. The man beside her was a typical northern man—tall and brawny, with long legs. One of his steps could cover two or three of hers.

But now, to match her pace, he was taking small, shuffling steps, looking quite put-upon.

Chi Yun’er pursed her lips and smiled as well. "Oh, it’s nothing. Brother Zishu found a job for me, as an accountant at the brick factory next to the farm."

At this, she pouted aggrievedly. "I think he just can’t stand having me around and wants to send me far away."

"I was a little upset about it, so I came over. I wanted to ask you, Brother Hua, if the farm has any open beds. I’d like to live here. It would make commuting to work more convenient."

Jiang Yihua’s expression suddenly changed. He turned to look at Chi Yun’er. Her eyes were moist and bright, like a turquoise spring reflecting the whole world—pure and stripped of all artifice. They were like a mountain stream untouched by dust, free of any worry.

"Jiang Zishi told you to go to the brick factory?" he confirmed, grinding out each word.

The man had a handsome face, usually cool and severe. People said he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He typically presented a deadpan expression to the world, occasionally twitching a corner of his mouth into a perfunctory smile.

But with this barely concealed fury, the scar on his chin immediately became more prominent and menacing, like a ferocious beast about to pounce.

Chi Yun’er couldn’t help but take two steps back. Her downcast eyes held a look of confusion, but she nodded lightly and said in a small voice, "Brother Zishu said that after he marries Comrade Bian, he won’t be able to look after me properly. It’s fine for me to be idle at home for a day or two, but if it goes on for too long, everyone will start to talk."

"He said it’s better to find an easy job for myself now, rather than wait until I get slapped with a political label."

"I’m pretty smart, you know. While I might not be able to see the answer at a glance like Brother Hua, I can make an abacus clatter away without a single mistake!"
