The sun hung high in the sky, and in mid-August, it was the hottest time of the year, causing the women of the brigade to hurriedly return from the fields to cook at home.
Smoke from cooking fires began to rise from several ridges around; those women who got home early had already started making meals.
Li Xianglu had just returned from her family’s private plot, carrying a basket full of fresh long beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, and round eggplants, all ripe. She planned to pickle some vegetables and then store the rest in the Storage Ring to eat gradually.
Climbing up to Third Ridge, she saw a dirty-looking teenager standing there, glaring fiercely at her.
Li Xianglu was startled, wondering who this was and why he was staring at her like that.
Li Xianglu sidestepped to walk away but was suddenly blocked by someone who leaped in front of her. Approaching closer, the unpleasant smell became more obvious. Li Xianglu took a step back in disgust and asked sharply, "Who are you, blocking people’s way like this!"
Seeing Li Xianglu’s disdainful look, the teenager became extremely annoyed, his fists clenched tightly, looking like he was about to hit someone.
Li Xianglu tensed and cautiously took a step back, saying sternly, "Who are you, and why are you blocking the way here? Move aside quickly, or I’ll call for help!"
Hearing her threat to call for help, the teenager finally stepped back, spat towards Li Xianglu, and turned to leave.
Li Xianglu was briefly stunned. Which family’s naughty kid was this, being so hateful?
She looked around briefly before heading back.
