Sweet, sweet milk candy.
The taste was so good it was unbelievable.
Ruan Jiaojiao's eyes squinted with sweetness, her little expression so full of enjoyment. She thought how wonderful it would be if she could be this happy every day.
Xiu Xi looked at the candy in his hand but couldn't bear to eat it; he secretly slid it into his pocket, intending to save it for her. Then the thought struck him to hunt more game that evening, trade for more money, and buy her lots and lots of milk candy.
Both harbored their thoughts until the Ruanlin Family mother came out from the kitchen and asked them to call people to the village entrance.

The beginning of May was the rice planting season.
The students were on vacation, and the Ruan Family, being large in number, would work together during planting despite having separated households. They would finish the oldest brother's fields before moving on to the second brother's, making the work not only faster but more efficient as well.
