The two continued eating.

Although the seasonings were incomplete, the taste was still very good thanks to Qiao Qiqi's excellent cooking skills.

Qiao Qiqi likes cold-cooked rabbit and potato chips, which are crispy and delicious.

Qin Huai was surprised to learn that potatoes and green beans could be cooked this way for the first time, and after tasting them, she found them delicious.

Looking back on my life, I only knew that these two vegetables could be stir-fried or stewed, but I didn't know they could also be served cold.

This is a great choice when you have a poor appetite in the hot summer; it's flavorful and incredibly satisfying.

The two of them took turns eating, and soon finished both dishes.

Qiao Qiqi put down her chopsticks and patted her stomach contentedly. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck her.

If she could grow vegetables in her space, wouldn't she be able to eat fresh vegetables all year round?

And importantly, you can also make money!

Vegetables sell much better than fruits, since every household eats vegetables every day, while fruits are optional.

Just as he was thinking this, a wad of cash suddenly appeared in front of him.

Qin Huai withdrew his hand and looked at her solemnly: "This is the money I made from selling the wild rabbits and pheasants that Zhang Qing and I hunted in the mountains last night. It's all here, a total of thirteen yuan and sixty cents."

Qiao Qiqi was somewhat surprised, "So many?"

Qin Huai nodded, but in his heart he was thinking that he had gone up the mountain last night to hunt wild boars, but after waiting for more than an hour, he hadn't even seen a single hair of a wild boar.

Finally, they had to settle for second best and catch some wild rabbits and pheasants.

However, he had already made an appointment with Zhang Qing to go again tonight, determined to make a fortune in the next few days.

Qiao Qiqi happily put the money away. Now she finally understood where the 80-odd yuan Qin Huai had given her came from.

Qiao Qiqi was delighted to see that her man had this ability.

Then she suddenly remembered Qin Huai leading her around the fields earlier, and realized that he still minded her past with Hou Yan, so Qiao Qiqi immediately looked up.

"Qin Huai, now that I've married you, I'll live a good life with you. Hou Yan and I are a thing of the past, and I'll prove that to you tonight."

Qin Huai looked up, puzzled. "What are you going to do?"

"I won't tell you for now, you'll find out tonight."

Thinking about what would happen that evening, Qiao Qiqi deliberately kept Qin Huai in suspense, planning to give him a surprise later.

Qin Huai looked at her with a puzzled expression. Although he was curious, he wisely refrained from asking any further questions.

After finishing the meal, Qin Huai went to wash the dishes.

Qiao Qiqi took some toilet paper to the outhouse. When she came back, he had already made up the bedding and lay down on one side of the mattress, just like yesterday.

Qiao Qiqi smiled and immediately climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed), pulled the man's arm over, and rested it under her head.

Feeling Qin Huai's body stiffen slightly, Qiao Qiqi pretended not to notice and closed her eyes.

Qin Huai quickly relaxed and glanced at her.

Looking at that fair and delicate face, she suddenly said, "This morning, Dad went to the fields and said that the work in the fields is almost done, and we can start resting tomorrow and wait for the autumn harvest."

Qiao Qiqi opened her eyes and searched through the memories left behind by the original owner.

Every year at this time, rural areas take a break for about a week. This is the last rest period before the autumn harvest. After this period, the crops in the fields will be ripe.

Every household is busy harvesting, not only working from dawn till dusk, but also having no time to take a nap at noon.

This is because crops ripen mostly at one time, and it's essential to harvest all the crops before the rain, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble if it rains.

“Didn’t you want to go up the mountain? I can take you there tomorrow,” Qin Huai added.

Qiao Qiqi's eyes lit up immediately, and she scrambled to her feet, looking at him expectantly: "Are there mushrooms on the mountain at this time of year?"

Qin Huai turned his head and looked into those big, watery eyes.

To ensure comfort while sleeping, Qiao Qiqi was only wearing a small floral cotton vest. As she lay prone on the kang (a heated brick bed), the neckline drooped down, revealing, from his angle, the full, white curves of her breasts beneath...

Qin Huai abruptly withdrew his gaze, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly.

Then he said, "It hasn't rained recently, so there probably won't be much. I know there's a place on the back hill where mushrooms grow early every year. I'll ask Mom to come with you then."

During these few days of rest, many villagers will go up the mountain to pick mushrooms, which will be quite lively. Lin Chunying used to go, but she hasn't gone since her back started acting up these past two years.

"Okay, then remember to tell your mother when you go to the fields this afternoon."

Qiao Qiqi was already looking forward to it.

She hadn't gone mushroom picking in the mountains for many years, and she was so excited about going tomorrow that she couldn't fall asleep for a while.

I don't know how long I slept, but I could hear rustling sounds around me.

Qiao Qiqi opened her eyes and saw Qin Huai getting off the kang (a heated brick bed) and putting on his shoes.

She immediately turned over, muttered something under her breath, and then fell asleep again.

Qin Huai looked up at her and heard her say, "Let's eat at my mom's tonight." He frowned slightly.

Although I feel that it's not good for the two of them to go back to the wife's parents' house for meals so often since they are already married.

But considering that Qiao Qiqi was pampered by her parents since she was a child, she must not be used to it yet.

He decided to go back to the foot of the mountain in the afternoon to see if he could catch a pheasant or a rabbit to take with him, so that he wouldn't be considered to be freeloading.

Qiao Qiqi slept until the sun was setting.

If she weren't pretending to be asleep, she could have continued sleeping.

However, remembering that she had a lot to do in the afternoon, she quickly got up and washed her face.

Then he went to the backyard, took off two of the larger marinated fish, and took out all his money from his spatial storage, put it in a handkerchief, and stuffed it into his pocket.

Once she was sure she had nothing left to take, she locked the door and hurried toward her parents' home.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Lin Chunying sitting by the wall washing clothes.

Qiao Qiqi walked over with a smile, "Mother, I'm back."

Lin Chunying looked up and saw the dried fish in her hand. She frowned immediately and said while wiping her hands, "Why are you bringing things home again? Qin Huai just delivered rabbit meat at noon, and now you're bringing fish. It wouldn't look good if someone saw this."

Qiao Qiqi looked unconvinced. "So what if they saw it? What does it have to do with me? I don't live by other people's opinions. Let them come and talk about me in front of me if they dare, and I'll tear their mouths apart!"

"You..." Lin Chunying looked at her helplessly. Although she felt that her daughter was a bit too fierce, she did not think there was anything wrong with it.

After all, my daughter has always had a tough personality and has been known for being formidable since she was a child.

Although it often gave Lin Chunying a headache, on the other hand, she thought it was good, at least she wasn't afraid of being bullied outside.
