Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 136 Reluctance

The next day, because Luo Chengxin had to leave after just one day, Luo Xinci and the other two asked the team leader for leave, wanting to stay with their family for a while longer.

As for Yuan Jiaojiao, she naturally hopes to be able to spend some time alone with her lover. Of course, if that is not possible, that doesn’t matter. She will feel satisfied just by watching from the side.

Although Luo Chengxin really wanted to spend a few more days with his younger siblings, he was also very busy and could only do more things in the limited time.

The time alone that Yuan Jiaojiao had been looking forward to for the whole night soon arrived. Luo Chengxin was going to stock up some more firewood for them, so Luo Xinci asked Yuan Jiaojiao to accompany him.

A man and a woman walked leisurely towards Yaoer Mountain.

Not far away, two people were walking by carrying a large bucket of water, heading towards the pigpen.

Luo Chengxin took a look and saw one old and one young. He didn't expect that there would be such a young person among the personnel transferred here. It was rare.

Yuan Jiaojiao also looked over and said, "They are the people who were sent down to the countryside. They don't have much contact with the villagers, nor with us educated youth."

"That's a good thing, we won't bother each other." What else can the demoted people ask for? They are lucky if others don't bother them.

Luo Chengxin picked up a long branch and started beating the bushes around him. He asked Yuan Jiaojiao to walk behind him and said, "Be careful when you go into the mountains. Some of these small creatures, such as snakes, insects, rats and ants, are very poisonous."

How could Yuan Jiaojiao not know these things, but the person who reminded her was Luo Chengxin, so she was willing to listen to whatever he said.

The small group in the backyard and the four members of the Luo family had lunch together.

Chen Jinghan proposed to exchange a rabbit and a pheasant with Jiang Yu.

"Do you want fresh ones?" Jiang Yu asked him while holding the hoe.

"Are you going to fight now?" Chen Jinghan also stopped and stood up to ask her.

Jiang Yu nodded. It wasn't a difficult thing anyway. If she couldn't find it, she still had Tuanzi. Hunting pheasants and rabbits, and sprinkling water~

Of course Chen Jinghan would not refuse, and immediately began to think about what she should use to exchange it with her.

"I want to eat too." Jiang Yu knew what he was thinking as soon as he saw him like that, so he interrupted him directly, then said something to the patrol scorekeepers, handed the hoe to Xue Li, and left early.

Before the fire started in the backyard of the educated youth's site, Jiang Yu came back with a backpack on his back.

The cleaned rabbit is chopped into small pieces and stewed. Pheasant is a tender chicken and is best suited for stir-frying.

Wu Aiqing occupied the stove in the alley and started to stir-fry the seasonings. He put garlic cloves into the hot oil. The garlic aroma was stimulated by the oil and instantly spread far away. He placed the bean paste next to the stove for later use.

Thanks again to Comrade Yi Chi who was not present. After his training, Wu Aiqing finally stopped being stingy with the seasonings. As a result, the food he cooked naturally tasted even better, and the fragrance made the educated youth in the front yard and the nearby villagers very excited.

Luo Xinci's eyes lit up. She squatted at the entrance of the alley, smelling the fragrance and swallowing her saliva greedily.

The old educated youth who were eating pickles and sweet potato rice in the front yard also inhaled the aroma. If they could smell it, they could eat it. They were in luck!

Soon, dinner was served in the backyard.

Rabbit meat stewed with vermicelli, stir-fried chicken, fried cabbage with dried shrimp, scrambled eggs with loofah, garlic sweet potato vines, and winter melon and bacon soup.

Xue Li felt that these dishes would be worth mentioning if served at a dinner party in the future, let alone at a time when supplies were scarce.

So it's not unreasonable to say that the villagers look down on them. Who wouldn't be jealous of this? If it weren't for Jiang Yu and Fu Biao's fighting ability, the shameless male educated youth in the front yard might have come over and asked for a taste.

Jiang Yu sat aside holding his big bowl, with Xue Li and Luo Xinci beside him.

Three girls in the same pose, waiting for dinner to be served.

After Wu Aiqing put down the last bowl of soup, untied her apron and sat down, Fu Biao raised his chopsticks and announced, "Let's eat!"

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and went straight to the dishes they wanted to eat.

After an intense and quick lunch, Chen Jinghan and the other two finally sat down with Luo Chengxin to discuss business. The three of them also asked for leave in the afternoon, so today's nap was canceled.

But Jiang Yu and Xue Li still returned to their room.

When Luo Chengxin left in the afternoon, he not only took away the specialties that Luo Xinci and Jiang Yu had exchanged, but also the plan that Chen Jinghan had given him.

City H is located next to City B and is also a market that Chen Jinghan attaches great importance to, so they discussed for a long time before deciding on the goods and sales prices, hoping to open up channels as soon as possible.

The eldest brother of the Luo family left. The two girls reluctantly saw him off for a long distance, while Luo Chengli held back his smile as he said goodbye to his eldest brother.

Great, the evil star is finally leaving.

Luo Chengxin looked at the distorted expression of the third brother, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly. This stupid guy was fooled by a woman and thought he had taken advantage of her. Tsk! How annoying!

"Third brother, if you are still as dull as before, and don't even bother to help when something happens, then you just wait." After all, Luo Chengxin didn't have a stable job, and he could use the excuse of business needs to come here to pick up goods. It wouldn't be difficult to visit the third brother in person when the time came.

Luo Chengli quickly corrected his attitude and said righteously that he would take good care of his sister and would never be lazy like before...

No one present believed this, including the person who said it.

After Luo Chengxin got on the minibus to the city, he looked at the two girls who were still watching him and thought he should find a way to get them back. One was his little sister who he had grown up with, and the other was his future wife. Both were very important to him, and he couldn't bear to let them stay in the countryside and suffer.

A passer-by cannot change everyone's life.

Ginger fish are still busy in the fields and running around in the mountains.

The summer sun was scorching, and the villagers' skin became more than one shade darker. Even the educated youth were tanned to blend in with everyone else, except for Xue Li, who was born with a peculiar appearance.

Looking at Xue Li who was walking with him, Jiang Yu's eyes scanned back and forth between their exposed arms.

One is a cool white color that makes you feel cool at first glance, and the other is a wheat color that has been baptized by the sun.

"It looks like food." Jiang Yu said that it looked like the snacks she remembered eating when she was very young, but now she couldn't remember what they were.

Xue Li looked up at her in confusion, "What?"

"It's okay." Jiang Yu shook his head and turned his gaze to the front. The villagers were laughing and trying to have fun in the midst of hardship. Each of them was either carrying a hoe or holding a sickle.

Some were harvesting wheat, some were breaking corn, and some were running back and forth with shoulder poles.

It's the harvest season again, and everyone is busy as hell.

Yi Chi also rushed back at this time.

Everyone in the village thought he was helping his grandfather on the farm, but in fact he had returned half a month ago. During this time he had been forced by teachers to learn foreign languages ​​and related professional knowledge.

Everyone hopes that in the near future, Yi Chi will be able to break free from the constraints of his current identity and start his new life again.
