It wasn't until Su Yuanyuan got on the fishing boat that Wang Er felt relieved.
"Xiao Su, shall we go back?"
"Go back, thank you all for the hard work."
Wang Er shook his head, "It's not hard, it's not hard." This time should be better than last time, right? After all, you know how to say thank you when you get on the boat.
Shao Hongming also came aboard the fishing boat, but the fishery administration's boat had already left.
When they arrived at the shore, it was still dark, but Zeng Hongling was waiting on the shore.
Su Yuanyuan felt warm in her heart, but she didn't want it to be like this. It wasn't that she didn't know how to appreciate someone, but that sometimes excessive care was a burden.
Zeng Hongling is very good like this. She cares, but will not cause trouble to others.
"I'm back, don't worry."
"It'll be nice to come back. I seemed to have seen the color of the moon change just now."
Su Yuanyuan just twitched the corners of her mouth stiffly and didn't say anything.
Shao Hongming followed the two of them. It wasn't that he was thick-skinned or wanted to do anything. The main reason was that he would leave after dawn.
If Su Yuanyuan gave herself a little hope, then she would resign without hesitation and stay with her.
Even if he resigns now, Su Yuanyuan probably won't let him follow him. He knows what's on his mind. This is resisting his approach from the bottom of his heart.
Shao Hongming felt bitter in his heart. But he still didn't want to leave and wanted to stay with her for a while longer.
The three of them returned home.
"Yuanyuan, Comrade Shao, let me make you something to eat."
Zeng Hongling also noticed it. Shao Hongming had something to say to Su Yuanyuan.
Shao Hongming looked at the woman sitting opposite, and his frustration became even stronger.
"Su Yuanyuan, haven't you given up this time?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "I know we will definitely be reunited."
Shao Hongming thought he was hallucinating. Does this girl know what she is talking about?
Shao Hongming really didn't know what to say.
"Su Yuanyuan, I want to resign and follow you from now on?" Shao Hongming asked anyway. He really didn't give up.
"It's not necessary. Besides, I won't accept you following me. It will bother me a lot."
"Why?" Shao Hongming asked stubbornly.
"Because I don't want to give you the wrong feeling. It's impossible for me to fall in love with anyone else in my life."
This was the first time the two of them had spoken such words face to face. Su Yuanyuan clearly expressed her thoughts.
"Do I really have no chance at all? I don't ask you to accept me now, I can wait."
"It's impossible. We will be friends from now on, nothing else."
Shao Hongming stopped talking. In the past, he could still deceive himself and convince others. But now he has made it clear.
"Shao Hongming, you are an upright person. Don't let your own impulse make you regret it later."
Shao Hongming didn't say a word. In fact, he was shouting in his heart. He was not impulsive at all. This was his true thought.
But he never said these words. There is still a long time left in his life, and he doesn't have no chance at all. Now that she is so resistant, let's just be friends first.
"You must be careful."
"I will. And thank you."
"Why are you being polite? We are friends." When Shao Hongming said this, he felt like his heart was bleeding.
At this time, Zeng Hongling brought over two bowls of noodles. She knew Su Yuanyuan's habits, so they were very light.
The two of them ate noodles in silence. Su Yuanyuan put down the bowl and said, "I'll drive to see you off."
"Thank you."
There was suddenly a special politeness between the two of them.
Zeng Hongling looked at Su Yuanyuan, wondering if she wanted to follow him, but Su Yuanyuan didn't look at her, and the two of them were about to leave.
"Yuanyuan, you haven't slept all night. Let me drive. You will be safer in the car."
Neither of them refused, and Zeng Hongling sat in the cab.
There was a special silence in the car along the way, and none of the three people spoke.
When they arrived at the entrance of the nursing home, Su Yuanyuan turned back and glanced at Shao Hongming, "Don't work too hard. Your body is the most important thing."
Shao Hongming felt sour and heartbroken.
"Thank you, I will pay attention. No matter what happens, you can call me."
"Okay, I remember it. So do you. If there is really anyone I can help with, you can come to me. Usually Huzi and the others will know my location."
"Okay, I hope you can call me wherever you go. We are friends, and I will also be worried about you."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "Okay, I will. I will go directly to pick ginseng this time, and then the most likely way is to go to the grassland to have a look, but I will still come here next year."
Shao Hongming nodded, "Okay, take care of yourself and don't be too impulsive."
The two nodded and Shao Hongming got out of the car. They watched him enter the nursing home before turning around and leaving.
Now Zeng Hongling's chatter box opened up, and she wanted to divert Su Yuanyuan's attention.
"Good guy, I was suffocated to death if I didn't speak during the whole journey."
"As for that?"
"Why not? Yuanyuan, should we go home directly?"
"Yes, just go back and wait for Dao Zhang Zhan and the others at home."
"They should have returned yesterday."
"We'll get home tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Let's leave directly here."
"Okay, Yuanyuan, if we want to come here next year, how about we find people in the village to build a house? What if we don't have a place to live next year?"
"That's okay. Let's go back and ask the village chief. We are not villagers, so we probably won't be given a homestead."
Su Yuanyuan has also thought about this issue, but she is just afraid of trouble. Now that Zeng Hongling has mentioned it today, she will ask when giving money to the village chief. It is better if you agree, but forget it if you disagree.
The year after the two returned home, Su Yuanyuan went to the village chief's house and gave the money to the village chief.
"Old village chief, can I build a house in the village? I will come here every year."
The old man gritted his teeth after hearing this and said, "Xiao Su, you are just here for a while, there is no need."
"Old village chief, if you are really in trouble, forget it."
"It's not that there's any trouble. No one will object to building a house in the village. I just think it's a waste."
"It won't be wasted. I come here every year.
If everyone agrees, just give me the cover right away. I estimate that I will leave within a week at most. It will be the beginning of spring when I come back."
"Xiao Su, okay, I'll ask. If it's okay, I'll take care of it for you in the next few days."
Su Yuanyuan knew that just building a house, that is, a mud house, would be convenient for living in the future.
After thanking the old man, Su Yuanyuan went home.
"Yuanyuan, do you want to sleep?"
"Well, I'm going to sleep."
"Okay, I'll go out and play, so as not to delay your rest."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "No."
However, Zeng Hongling still went out to play with the children. In this way, Su Yuanyuan went into the space to rest and relieve her fatigue.
