?Chapter 261: Chapter 226 Move_2 Chapter 261: Chapter 226 Move_2 October was the time to harvest peanuts, and it was scorching hot. Her father would often set up a big umbrella at the edge of the field, where she would hide under it, watching her family members work under the sun, picking peanuts.

Before setting out each time, Xue Yuantong would always fill a small bottle with water from their well.

The well water in summer was cool. Her family forbade her from drinking raw water, but she would secretly drink it, and it was a supreme delight when paired with a spicy strip.

Xue Yuantong heard that in the village, there was a family whose well water had a sweet taste and was particularly good, but she was too young then and didn’t have the courage to go to someone else’s house to ask for water.

In her childhood, she would take the small bottle to the fields to wait for her parents, and after a while, the cool well water in the bottle would become warm from the sun.

Xue Yuantong wasn’t just idly waiting; under the umbrella, she picked up many clumps of soil and divided them into the Great General, the lesser generals, and the soldiers.

She commanded them in battle, often plucking a blade of grass as if it were capturing a city, triumphing gloriously.

When the sun finally set, the family would head home, and Xue Yuantong would ask her dad for ten cents to buy an ice pop from the village’s little shop.

The shop had ice cream, but an ice cream cost twenty cents, which was more than she could afford.

On a hot summer evening, eating an ice pop was incredibly comforting.

“I really miss it!”

Remembering the sweet taste of the ice pops, Xue Yuantong took out a White Rabbit Creamy Candy, unwrapped it, and put it in her mouth.

She let the candy melt, chewing hard, trying to recapture the happiness of her youth.

But then she felt bored again:

“Such a dull life!”

Suddenly, accompanied by the squawking “quack quack” sounds, a line of big white geese passed by the door.

There were seven or eight of them, belonging to a nearby uncle who often took them to the river for frolicking and fishing.
