The setting sun paints the sky with hues of red, trails of smoke from cooking fires spiral upward, mirroring the silhouettes of a flock of geese. Green mountains, clear water, white reeds, and red leaves blossoming among yellow flowers.
The villagers of Xiaobaikou Village each prepare a few good dishes of their own, store some jars of old wine, and within a short time, a feast is set. The banquet is more lively and joyful than a wedding.
Li Huai is back!
Zhang Lao'er has been released from the police station!
Apart from that, there's another piece of incredibly joyous news: the price of a kilo of apples has skyrocketed from 1.5 yuan to 3 yuan. Even so, fruit dealers from other places scramble to buy them up, leaving the fruit farmers grinning broadly.
Before long, Zhang Lao'er had drunk so much that he was unsteady on his feet and, without warning, kicked Li Huai's ass.
