Xiao Yi happily pushed his things back home, surprised at how generous the research institute was.
Last time, he only received 20 pounds of rice flour, but this year he got two pounds of pork, a chicken, and a duck, although the latter two were cured.
But that didn't matter; as long as it was meat, it was perfect.
More importantly, he was confident that bringing these things back home would absolutely impress the boastful neighbors.
The weather in December was fiercely cold and windy, and after the sun set, the temperature plummeted.
Just as everyone was about to give up and leave, they finally spotted Xiao Yi.
Seeing the pork, chicken, and duck on his handlebars, everyone's spirits sank.
This year they were quite pleased with the factory benefits, with each person receiving two pounds of pork and ten pounds of flour, happily imagining they could enjoy a meat dumpling feast this Spring Festival.
