Small Days in Qingxi Village

My name is Lin Wan. I quit my life-consuming job in the city and returned to Qingxi Village with my savings. The village is hidden in a mountain col. A clear stream flows through the village. The water is so clear that you can see pebbles on the bottom. My old courtyard is at the end of the village. There is a vegetable patch in front of the courtyard, half an acre of sloping land in the back, and an old well next to it. The water from the well in summer is so cold that it is refreshing to the bone. No alarm clock, no overtime, no group messages @everyone. What wakes me up every day is the chirping of birds outside the window and the soft sound of my mother choosing vegetables in the yard. I made up my mind to grow vegetables and raise chickens here and live a peaceful life.
