Chapter 1132: Chapter 1132: Sweet Dreams
Changshui Village.
Si Yu went to the town and returned fully loaded. Changshui Village has always been self-sufficient, mostly eating noodles in their daily meals. However, no one would complain about having too much grain, so Si Yu consulted with the village chief and bought some coarse grains and rice.
Although the North primarily consumes noodles, it doesn’t mean they don’t eat rice.
Before a vehicle arrives to pick them up, they still need to eat and drink in Changshui Village. Moreover, the people Zhao Xiangqian brought also need to eat.
"Brother Meng, why did you buy so much rice and coarse grain?" Mr. Miao looked at the truckload of rice and coarse grain, not only rice but also flour.
Besides these, they also bought a few sheep and a big fat pig.
"We have a lot of people and may disturb the village for a while." Si Yu said with a smile, expressing endless gratitude to the villagers and Mr. Miao, as if Mr. Miao hadn’t saved Tang Jun, Tang Jun, soaking in water without being discovered, might have been either dead by falling or drowning, or frozen to death.
There’s no rush to repay a lifesaver at this moment.
"Aren’t there just the three of you?" Mr. Miao was a bit surprised.
Si Yu explained that in addition to the three of them, Zhao Xiangqian also brought over thirty people, so food couldn’t be compromised.
Especially in recent days, those thirty people had been working hard searching for Tang Jun, and now that they have found him, it’s only natural to reward those people well.
"Mr. Miao, could we ask the villagers to help slaughter the pig and the sheep?" Si Yu looked a bit embarrassed as he suggested to Mr. Miao: "They traveled from the mountain road from that side, expected to arrive around eight or nine in the evening. I need to go with a few people from the village to meet them. As for cooking, I..." He felt capable yet powerless.
"Don’t worry, even if you didn’t buy all this grain and food, we could certainly feed everyone with the strength of the entire village."
Mr. Miao said with a cheerful smile. He found the village chief and explained that Si Yu was going to meet the incoming people. The chief immediately took four or five able-bodied young men to accompany Si Yu while telling the village butcher to slaughter the pig and sheep for a delicious evening meal.
Meng Sishou specifically instructed the butcher to definitely slaughter one pig and two sheep, and he asked the villagers to save their appetites for a bonfire party in the evening.
The pig was a big fat one, but with the three dozens of them and about ten households in the village, there were over a hundred people in total. One big fat pig wouldn’t be enough for everyone.
Si Yu told Tang Jun and Yuan Yu to rest well there and then took the villagers to meet Zhao Xiangqian.
In the village, to provide accommodation for these people, they specially cleaned up the largest place in the village, the Miao Family Mansion. The Miao Family was located in the flattest area of the village, and later they could have dinner there. Although there were thirty more people, they would manage to sleep by squeezing a few long beds together.
For dinner, everyone decided to wait for the return of the village chief, Si Yu, and the others to eat together, while the villagers casually ate something simple.
Fat Aunt made chicken soup for nourishing Yuan Yu and Tang Jun. In the chicken soup, Mr. Miao added some herbs, making it nutritious for both Tang Jun and Yuan Yu.
At nine o’clock in the evening.
The village chief and Si Yu brought back over thirty people. From afar, they could smell the fragrant aroma of food. As they followed the aroma, they came upon a spacious flat area with tables set up. Next to it was a steaming bonfire, the aroma of the meat on the table made Zhao Xiangqian and others swallow their saliva.
"Xiao Jun."
Those who initially knew Tang Jun saw him standing there safe and sound and rushed over to embrace him, greeting him in a manly fashion.
Until everyone noticed something unusual with Tang Jun’s eyes, Tang Jun casually said, "I can’t see, it’s only temporary. What, do you think just because I can’t see, I can’t beat you?"
"No."
Everyone denied it in unison. Although Tang Jun couldn’t see, he was in very good spirits.
In their search for Tang Jun, many of them went several nights without proper sleep or meals. Now that Tang Jun was safe, the dishes, prepared with the villagers’ skilled hands using the pork and lamb, tasted especially good.
By the bonfire, everyone drank and ate enthusiastically, not only were they happy, but the villagers were also delighted.
The village hadn’t been this lively for a long time.
The dimming and flickering bonfire illuminated smiling faces. Everyone danced around the bonfire. Yuan Yu pulled Tang Jun to join in, and although Tang Jun couldn’t see, the dance was simple, and he learned it in a few moves. The villagers sang local songs with simple dance steps, creating a very lively atmosphere.
Yuan Yu occasionally glanced at Tang Jun, her smile never fading from her lips. Suddenly, she thought it was a good thing Tang Jun couldn’t see, at least he couldn’t avoid her.
Yuan Yu secretly glanced at him, gripping his hand tightly, occasionally reminding him to watch his steps.
Beautiful times are always short-lived. The wonderful night would inevitably return to calm.
Yuan Yu lay in bed, smelling the quilt filled with the scent of the sun. According to Fat Aunt, this quilt was new, bought when her daughter got married, soft and fluffy.
That night, Yuan Yu had a sweet dream, dreaming that Tang Jun’s eyes recovered, and she gave birth to a sweet little girl, who circled around calling her mom, and Tang Jun dad.
Tang Jun held the little girl, beaming with joy.
Even when she woke up, Yuan Yu still had a smile on her lips.
Bringing herself back to reality, Yuan Yu looked at the simple room, remembering Tang Jun’s eyes weren’t healed yet, and felt a sense of emptiness.
Thinking that she may never have children in her life made her feel even more down.
Zhao Xiangqian led everyone back to the office. Si Yu also had affairs to attend to and couldn’t stay any longer; he returned to Jing City first.
Originally, someone was to stay with them, but Tang Jun said, "I’m just blind, not incapable, right? Besides, this village is very simple and doesn’t need anyone to take care of me."
"Brother-in-law, just have Cai Yufei come to pick me up when the time comes." Tang Jun said, not wanting anyone to stay to waste time with him.
Si Yu glanced at Yuan Yu, who immediately said, "Brother Meng, I’ll take good care of Tang Jun."
"Alright then, you two rest well here, in a couple of days there will be a special vehicle to pick you up." Si Yu didn’t insist on taking them away forcefully. Tang Jun still had injuries, and Yuan Yu’s health hadn’t fully recovered. Additionally, leaving through the mountain roads, it was better for Tang Jun and Yuan Yu to recuperate here before leaving.
Si Yu was eager to return to Jing City, having not seen Zaozao and Chenchen for several days. Not finding Tang Jun, Si Yu hadn’t even dared to contact Tang Yue.
