Chapter 870: Heartache for Uncle Li

Actually, it would be quite nice if Ning Chen stayed here all the time.

+1

At least while he is happy, he can also do some good deeds.

At this moment, Ning Chen had already swung the shears until sparks flew.

The fruits in his bucket were also filling up more and more.

"I have to say, this year's harvest is quite good."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Ning Chen also nodded.

But a good harvest is one thing; whether it can be sold at a good price is another matter.

So having both perfectly is what matters most.

Yang Mi also slowly walked over to the side at this moment.

"I feel like my arms are about to break."

It wasn't just Yang Mi feeling this way; even Ning Chen, with his strength, felt somewhat exhausted.

"Thank you! Thank you all!"

While Ning Chen and the others were continuing their work, a voice of thanks came from nearby.

Instinctively looking over, they realized an elderly grandpa was slowly walking in their direction.

"I really must thank you. If it weren't for you, I truly wouldn't know what to do."

Hearing the old man's words, Ning Chen and the others all waved their hands.

"This is what we should do; you don't need to take it to heart."

Hearing Ning Chen's words, the old man also wiped the corner of his eye.

To be honest, at this age, who doesn't want to enjoy their later years in peace?

But the heavy burden of life presses down on them; without effort, they cannot survive.

After thinking about this matter, Ning Chen felt exceptionally depressed in his heart.

This is what they saw; what about what they didn't see?

The sufferings of the human world vary from person to person.

Soon it was noon; Ning Chen was still struggling, while Teacher He and the others ran over.

"Chenchen, pack up; we are going to eat."

Hearing Teacher He's words, Ning Chen instantly became like a deflated balloon.

He then sat directly on the ground.

After getting into the car, Ning Chen realized the route was different.

"Aren't we going back to the Mushroom House?"

Teacher He instinctively nodded, then pointed toward the deepest part of the village.

"Uncle Li said today he wants to treat us to a meal to repay us for helping them solve the fruit problem today."

After hearing Teacher He's words, Ning Chen also nodded.

The car drove slowly and soon arrived in front of an earthen house.

No one expected that the environment here would be so harsh.

"Does Uncle Li usually live here?"

Facing Ning Chen's question, Teacher He and the others all nodded.

This made Ning Chen feel even more heartache.

They are not doing well themselves, yet because of our help, they still want to treat several people to a meal.

Fragrant smells wafted from inside the house.

After the group got out of the car, they realized Uncle Li was already waiting at the door.

"I have already finished cooking; come in quickly."

Hearing Uncle Li's words, the group all walked inside.

Surprisingly, there was only Uncle Li alone in this house.

The furnishings inside were also very simple: a table, a bed, and a few chairs.

Ning Chen did not ask; it was clear that there was no longer a mistress of the house here.

Four steaming hot dishes were now arranged on the table.

Chicken, duck, fish, and meat were all served on the table.

These are probably foods Uncle Li does not usually touch.

For a moment, this made Ning Chen and the others feel even more heartache.

This meal was eaten with mixed feelings, but it was clear that Uncle Li was exceptionally happy today.

After finishing the meal, the others returned to the orchard again.

The production team had already found a large number of people; even if Ning Chen and the others stopped helping, someone would still solve these problems.

Until night fell and the moon slowly set.

Dragging their exhausted bodies, Ning Chen and the others returned to the Mushroom House.

Whether it was because of exhaustion or because of what they discovered today.

Their moods were not particularly good.

After a simple wash, they sat at the table to rest.

"I have a proposal."

Ning Chen suddenly spoke up, causing the people around him to instinctively look over.

"Uncle Li's house is really too shabby, and he's getting older and older, so even if there's something that needs patching up here and there, there's nothing he can do about it."

The rest of them naturally understood what Did Ning Chen meant.

【Have to say, Did Ning Chen really is a model for our generation.】
