The Space-Time Boss: 1970s Revolution

Chapter 177: Friends

Time at home passes quickly, and before they knew it, half a month had gone by.

The weather was getting colder and colder. On the day before the Winter Solstice, light snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

The first snowfall didn't last long; it stopped after just half a day.

According to Grandpa Fu, it wasn't the right time yet. When the real heavy snow comes, the doors will be blocked.

On the Winter Solstice, it is customary to eat dumplings.

At noon that day, Li Xiufen prepared two types of filling: one with cabbage and pork, and the other with eggs and cabbage.

The family had a lot of cabbage; they had planted many radishes and cabbages in their own plot, which should be enough to last through the winter.

A few people sat around the kitchen and finished eating the dumplings.

Afterward, everyone went to find a warm place to settle down.

Grandpa Fu went out to meet his chess friends.

Li Xiufen, carrying a pair of shoes, also went out.

Fu Xiao was basking in the sun with a few of her brothers.

It was very cold that day, and everyone was dressed warmly.

She was holding Fu Kai, who was bundled up like a ball, and was listening to Fu Sui chat about various things.

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Mu Lianshen in the backyard.

He was squatting there, smoking with Fu Weibao. Next to the vegetable garden in the backyard, the two had built a simple shed, which was filled with firewood.

Mu Weibao said something, and Mu Lianshen nodded with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

They exchanged a few more words, and Mu Weibao patted his shoulder before standing up and walking towards this side.

As they chatted, Mu Lianshen did not stop but simply gave a friendly pat on the back of Fu Sui's head, who was talking animatedly.

Fu Sui didn't mind, casually rubbing the spot where he had been tapped and continuing to talk about fights in the military district compound.

Fu Xiao gently put down Fu Kai and walked slowly towards Mu Lianshen.

She squatted beside him, looked up into his eyes, and said with a smile, "You should go back to Beijing..."

When delivering things secretly to the elderly in the village.

She saw their elderly faces gazing into the distance.

She suddenly remembered that Old Master Mu was also alone.

"Da Shan Village is quite lively, but in the Mu family of Beijing, now there's only him."

Mu Lianshen's expression paused slightly, then he smiled, "Dad knows."

She emphasized once more, "You really don't have to stay with me all the time. There are so many people at home; the New Year will be very lively."

He smiled gently at her but didn't answer her question.

Instead, his gaze shifted to a group of young people chatting around a bonfire, and he said leisurely, "Your brothers are all pretty good..."

Youth is truly wonderful...

"When Dad was young, he also had a group of good friends. We used to sit together and chat about everything."
