This afternoon, Xu Shu and Liu Jianjun went out together. Passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, the innocent, smiling faces of the children in Xu Village suddenly appeared in Xu Shu's mind.
After a moment of thought, he walked into the cooperative, took out his money, and carefully selected a catty of fruit-flavored candies. He felt a wave of joy, imagining how excited the children would be when he returned to Xu Village tomorrow and handed out the sweets. At the thought of this, the corners of Xu Shu’s mouth curled upward, a smile quietly spreading across his face.
Afterward, Xu Shu pushed his bicycle, strolling slowly back toward the courtyard. From a distance, he spotted Yan Bugui keeping watch by the gate. Yan Bugui’s eyes were like searchlights, locking onto the fruit candies hanging from the handlebars of Xu Shu’s bike from far away. They were far more tempting than any green onions or cabbage. Instantly, Yan Bugui began to calculate, laying out his schemes early. He knew clearly that Xu Shu had a terrible impression of him and usually didn't even want to speak more than a few words to him. If he wanted to get his hands on those fruit candies, it would take some effort.
