Was the 1980s more open than I imagined?
Wang Mei quickly ran behind He Runqing: "Runqing! Don't think such things."
"After soaking in the hot spring, Sister Xue suggested that a few of us go for drinks."
"I was drunk, and who knew I'd end up sitting next to this guy. My hands were busy too, so I pinched his cheek and got oil all over my hands, you know?"
"Anyway, it wasn't a good experience, so don't get the wrong idea."
Shuanzi retorted indignantly, "What? I wash my face every day!"
Wang Mei was speechless and didn't say anything, but she washed her hands for a long time when she got home.
"Let's go, Runqing." Wang Mei grabbed He Runqing and ran.
"We need to hurry to the fields to harvest wheat today! Your father-in-law, the brigade leader, said that it needs to be harvested in the next few days while the weather is still relatively dry and there's no rain."
During this period, the entire brigade will be busy harvesting wheat.
So she'll be busy for a while. These past few days, He Runqing has been putting her books in her army green bag when she goes to work, carrying her army green water bottle and the bag with her books.
While everyone rested under the jujube tree, she took out a book and read for a while.
Whenever I have free time, I'm busy reading.
Because I want to become better, I strive to improve myself.
After He Runqing and Wang Mei left together, Shuanzi still wanted to chase after them to talk to Wang Mei.
Chen Yifei crossed his arms and said, "If I were a woman, I would find you terrifying."
Shuanzi said anxiously, "I just want to know why, whether it was an accident or not."
“I used to think that I couldn’t even remember Wang Mei’s face. I just remember that she was quite lively at your wedding. She was playful and could joke around with you.”
"We rarely had contact after that. I didn't expect that when we met yesterday, I felt that she was very different."
"No one has ever been this special before..."
Chen Yifei picked up his basket and sickle, found a wooden stick, and prepared to take them up the mountain. He also prepared a bundle for Shuanzi.
They talked as they walked.
Chen Yifei looked at him like that, and even blushed when he talked about it.
"So you like her."
He was just joking when he said he would repay the favor with his body.
I never expected that Shuanzi would actually have such a plan... When feelings come, no one can stop them.
"I... Brother Fei, I don't know. I just want to verify whether she is different."
"Stop talking nonsense, your behavior shows you like it." Chen Yifei wasn't one to beat around the bush.
"If you feel it's right, then go for it without hesitation. If you don't act now, you'll regret it when you're old and alone."
"In this life, there aren't many chances to undo mistakes, so cherish the people around you."
When Chen Yifei said these words, he was also drawing on his own personal experiences from his previous life.
Shuanzi grinned and said, "Brother Fei, you're acting like you've been through it all."
Chen Yifei remained silent.
He just sighed softly.
Shuanzi didn't say anything on the surface, but he was actually thinking of going with his own wishes and figuring out the situation with Wang Mei.
I had already prepared myself to be alone for the rest of my life.
Unexpectedly, this person appeared out of nowhere, disrupting all the original plans. And what followed for Shuanzi wasn't sadness or anger, but only anticipation for Wang Mei…
This feeling is a bit strange.
Never mind, let's get down to business first.
As he was thinking, he unconsciously chuckled, waiting for Shuanzi to realize what was happening.
Chen Yifei was already chatting with agricultural technician Zhu Cankui.
"Comrade Xiao Zhu, we've received all the materials we used to build the greenhouses, as well as the subsequent payments. I'm all set," Chen Yifei told him.
Zhu Cankui knew he was capable; it was impressive that he could raise so much money so quickly.
He gave a thumbs-up and said, "Comrade Chen Yifei, the commune and I are fully supportive. I've contacted the village secretary, the commune, and the county for help. The land issue is still the problem."
"I talked to the villagers and they said they would give me money as a subsidy, but in the end, the amount of land they gave up was not much. In addition, everyone is very conservative now, so I originally thought that planting mushrooms in the small shed in front of my house would not work either."
Chen Yifei nodded. He had heard some rumors about it from everyone. Chen Jianguo had been talking to him about it recently.
The main reason is that they feel they've taken up land in front of their homes, and if they make money, they can share it with everyone and even pay their wages. It's not that they don't trust Chen Yifei, but they're just worried that the mushroom greenhouse might end up being a loss.
It's a good thing Chen Yifei ran away by then. Everyone has a mushroom shed like that in front of their house, and it would be such a hassle to demolish it.
So when Comrade Xiao Zhu and the village party secretary were running around dealing with this matter, collecting statistics from everyone, they got a general idea of everyone's attitude.
That's how it is; no one is willing to give up their share. They all refuse, citing the fact that they have many children and will have many more in the future, or that they can't afford to build a mushroom shed at home.
Comrade Xiao Zhu originally thought that Chen Yifei would feel uncomfortable or troubled after saying these things.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yifei simply breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, since we're going to do this openly and honestly, no one will say anything once we make money."
Because they gave up on it themselves.
But if he doesn't ask questions and just starts doing it, then everyone will think that Chen Yifei is hogging the benefits.
Chen Yifei understood this basic social etiquette, especially since it involved occupying land.
Seeing that he didn't seem sad at all, Zhu Cankui was a little puzzled: "Comrade Chen Yifei, do you have other plans?"
No wonder he's so thorough in his work; it's no wonder He Runqing fell for him.
Zhu Cankui felt even more strongly that he was no longer capable.
Compared to Chen Yifei, he is still far inferior.
He nodded and said, "Mm."
“Let’s walk a little further and take a look. Everyone needs to use this farmland, but land that is frequently tilled is not very good for the growth of mushrooms.”
"For mushrooms, it's essential to choose well-drained soil rich in organic matter, ensuring good aeration and appropriate pH levels. Your agricultural technicians are experts in this area, aren't they?"
"Yes." Zhu Cankui nodded; Chen Yifei was absolutely right.
He hasn't read books in a long time, how come... Chen Yifei knows so much?
Zhu Cankui then added, "Of course, we guide you in setting up the greenhouses and will also provide soil maintenance and management afterwards. That's the reason for our existence. Temperature, diurnal temperature range, and light are all factors we consider."
"The most important thing for a mushroom shed is manure. Comrade Shuanzi has already learned this from me."
Chen Ershuan nodded: "Yes, it's just too smelly. I have to wash myself several times a day. My mom says that wherever I sit, the place smells bad. The mushroom droppings are something else."
