Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 582 integrated

The village chief Li Yungui here also learned about the class schedule for tomorrow, and everyone chatting nearby heard it too.

"We’ll mention it again during the meal later, so no one is left out; we won’t wait for one or two when the time comes."

The young couples are all keen to learn, bringing their own small stools, as the brigade can’t provide so many.

But a table and chair were prepared for Jiang Xinyu, after all, she needed to rest.

Shang Zhenkun stood aside watching the couple, inwardly sighing—these two can live well anywhere they go.

Just arriving here, they’re already acclimated; failing isn’t possible for people like this. One shouldn’t expect the environment to adapt to you, you should quickly adapt to the environment.

This way, you can be one step ahead and succeed.

By eleven o’clock, all the food was cooked.

Jiang Xinyu wasn’t particularly interested in their dishes—why add pickled vegetables to perfectly good braised pork? You could serve the braised pork separately and stew the pickled vegetables with the meat broth.

However, she didn’t show it; if you don’t like it, just eat less. No need to let anyone know.

But the sorghum and cornmeal rice was really tasty, especially chewy, and had the perfect consistency.

They used their own bowls and chopsticks. "Feifei, try this rice; I find it surprisingly good, even better than plain rice. You might also learn how to make it from that Aunt."

"Mom, I still think plain rice tastes better."

"Okay, at home we’ll stick to plain rice."

Shi Jing and Jianbin were devouring their meals; they found it utterly delicious.

Wei Kaiyun was among the men, with a chair to sit due to his leg, enthusiastically eating with them.

Jiang Xinyu understood Wei Kaiyun’s approach—it was proving to everyone that their family lived simply too, not often eating such dishes.

So she also ate heartily, though cautious not to overeat for fear of discomfort, but chewed exaggeratedly to show enjoyment.

The three large pots of pork stew and pickled vegetables were completely finished; with plenty of pork, everyone was satisfied.

Jiang Xinyu listened to everyone chatting, feeling that even not eating meat during New Year would be fine—this meal was worth it.

Wei Kaiyun was still chatting with everyone, so Jiang Xinyu advised Shi Jing to look after Feifei while she lent a hand; though unable to handle heavy work, she could do small tasks.

"Feifei, we made a few friends just now," Han Jianbin reported to Jiang Feifei as if sharing a treasure.

"Hehe, once it warms up, you’ll have time to play outside."

"Indeed, Dapeng mentioned fishing in the village in a few days—we want to go too."

Jiang Feifei looked at them, "I don’t think mom will agree; first, it’s too cold outside, and with so many people, there might be danger."

Listening to their sister, both hung their heads. "We thought the same; I also feel mom wouldn’t agree."

"Not this year but next; by then dad’s leg will be healed, and there’s also Master Shang—mom will surely agree then."

"It’s all we can do; earlier Dapeng invited us, but I didn’t respond," Jiang Shijing muttered weakly.

"Come on, don’t act like that; if mom sees it won’t be good. Wait patiently, as even without catching cold, you’ll still have fish to eat, mom will surely make us poached fish too."

"Yeah, I want some poached fish too."

"What’s poached fish? I haven’t had it."

"It’s my mom’s specialty, no wonder you haven’t tried it. It’s truly delicious."

"Feifei, I’m so jealous of you; Aunt Jiang is so skillful, she can make anything. Many dishes you mention I’ve never even heard of." Han Jianbin resolved to stick around Aunt Jiang, making sure never to leave her.

"Hehe, you’ll be able to taste it in a few days."

A few more kids approached; they were hesitant around Jiang Feifei, mostly because she was too pretty, feeling intimidated nearby.

Soon they were all playing together.

Cleaning up afterward was swift—in numbers there’s strength, even the elderly pitched in, and Jiang Xinyu met many more people.

She felt everyone’s goodwill, responding genuinely to each; heart for a heart, the best way to communicate.

When the work was done, the men dispersed, and Jiang Xinyu led the three children over quickly, "How’s your leg holding up?"

"Wife, I’m fine; I’ve been sitting the entire time."

She cautiously walked beside Wei Kaiyun.

Once home, everyone washed up then took a nap.

Jiang Xinyu brought a basin of hot water, using a warm towel on Wei Kaiyun’s leg, "Feeling more comfortable now?"

"Much better; don’t worry, I won’t exert myself. I certainly don’t want to end up disabled."

"Before New Year, I still need to see Lv Beiguang’s two kids; it’s not too far."

"Wait for Old Yang to come by and have him drive you there."

"Alright, sounds good; I don’t know the way."

"I plan to write letters soon, to reassure many people."

"Hehe, my wife’s good connections naturally mean plenty of friends."

When the water cooled, they lay down. "In a few days, the village will organize a fishing trip."

"That’s great; let’s buy more, Shi Jing and Feifei love my poached fish, but you can’t eat it—spicy food’s bad for your wound."

"You guys enjoy it."

"If I weren’t pregnant, I’d like to go see too."

"It’s okay, there’s always next year; then our whole family can join the fun."

"Shi Jing and Jianbin must want to go, but both you and I can’t follow. I’m worried, best not let them go."

"Then they won’t go."

As Jiang Xinyu watched her sleeping daughter, "Next year when we have the time, let’s add two more rooms; Feifei’s grown and needs her own space."

"Sure, it’s easy to build when it’s warm; just a few days."

"Mm-hmm."

"Wife, I feel living here for years would be pleasant; certain villagers might be a bit off, but most are quite good."

"Mm, today I didn’t meet anyone off-putting—everyone’s alright, and a few younger ones I could really connect with."

"That’s good; I hope you can make more friends and be happy."

In no time Jiang Xinyu fell asleep, as Wei Kaiyun watched the two women laying beside him, feeling immensely satisfied.

He’s truly lived a fulfilling life, with a boy and girl, a dear wife by his side—an undeniable winner.

Regarding career matters, he’s indifferent; if it comes, it’s meant to be—losing doesn’t matter anymore. He understood long ago, you live regardless; so enjoy each day fully.
