There was still one rabbit at home, enough for the two of them to have a few meals.
"Okay, you stay at home, I'll go," said Third Grandma Qi, "You're a Knowledge Youth, sending things to Village Chief Qi's place might not look good if someone sees you, people could gossip."
He Tiantian thought it wasn't far and gratefully said, "Then I'll trouble Grandma Qi."
Third Grandma Qi went to the storeroom to get the rabbit, which was air-dried, and put it in a basket, covering it with some straw. She tiptoed toward Village Chief Qi's place.
Since Third Grandma Qi personally delivered it, Secretary Qi found it hard to refuse and let Liang Hongyu put four big apples into the basket. These were from Village Chief Qi's eldest daughter-in-law, whose home village was all mountainous, unable to cultivate grains, only apples. These were distributed by the production team. The eldest daughter-in-law brought some from her parents' home and had given a dozen or so to honor them.
