But she has been reborn and is going to the countryside for Xia Minglei. This is an even more outrageous move than in her previous life. So what will be the ending in this life? No one knows.
Wenxi doesn't worry about other people's affairs. She just focuses on cooking her own dishes. She makes whatever dishes people send her. As for meat dishes, she makes stir-fried cicadas, stir-fried frogs with chili peppers, snake meat soup, boiled fish, braised fish, spicy dried small fish, and braised dishes. She makes them in rotation every day, and the meat dishes for lunch and dinner are different!
Since collecting ten fish baskets, Wenxi has been able to harvest a lot of fish and small snails every day. Wenxi cooks the fish for everyone on the same day, while the small snails are kept for two days until there is enough for everyone before being cooked.
Although we catch fish every day, they are all only the size of a palm or a pound or two. We have never encountered the kind of big fish that weigh tens of pounds that Wenxi catches at night. This is good, though. If people knew that there were such big fish in the river bend, they would probably go crazy.
So Wenxi kept the big fish for herself. Now she doesn't sell those big fish anymore; instead, she catches medium-sized fish from other places, such as grass carp weighing a few pounds, carp weighing ten pounds, common carp, crucian carp, etc.
However, she still kept some rare fish for herself, such as soft-shelled turtles and river eels.
These wild fish are hard to come by again. She kept them because she planned to develop aquaculture when she got back. After all, in the 1980s, a family with ten thousand yuan was either selling goods or raising fish in the countryside. She was trapped by that family in her previous life, so she was determined to develop her own business in this life and never let anyone look down on her.
That evening, Wenxi and her two friends returned home after work and were somewhat surprised to see Lin Yiwan standing outside the gate.
"Yi Wan, what brings you here?" Wen Xi asked.
"My older brother is leaving soon. Why don't you come to my house for dinner after work tomorrow night? No, how about a late-night snack?" Lin Yiwan invited.
Wen Xi nodded, "Okay, don't worry, we'll go over tomorrow night."
The next evening, Wenxi and her two friends returned from work. They were going to Lin Yiwan's house for a late-night snack, so they couldn't go empty-handed. Wenxi asked Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue to clean the snails they had collected a couple of days ago. Wenxi then took them to the kitchen and cooked them. Wenxi also took a bag of snails she had made earlier from the system kitchen. The bag weighed 20 jin, and with the ones she made tonight, it made a total of 50 jin, enough for a group of people to enjoy.
After dark, Wen Xi went to the back first to collect the mushrooms from the children's hands. Then she carried a large watermelon, while Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue carried spicy snails. The three of them went to Lin Yiwan's house together.
Just like the last gathering, the Lin family used a bamboo bed as a table, with several bowls of crayfish piled high on it, looking like small hills.
This time, the spicy crayfish dish includes cucumber strips and lettuce strips. Both the cucumber strips and lettuce strips are coated with seasoning, making it a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate. It looks incredibly delicious.
There was also a bowl of cold dishes, containing wood ear mushrooms, kelp, and bamboo shoots. The bamboo shoots were so fresh and tender that it was obvious that Lin Yiwan had stored them in her spatial storage in the spring. Wen Xi pretended not to know about this, after all, she herself was also carrying a huge secret.
"Auntie, I brought a big watermelon. You can chill it with well water first, and then cut it up to eat at the end." Wenxi handed the watermelon to Lin's mother.
The watermelon that Wenxi brought weighed at least ten pounds, enough for everyone to have a good meal.
"Okay." Lin's mother took the heavy watermelon and said with a smile, "Xiaoxi, thank you. Please sit down and eat!"
Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue took out the spicy snails from the basket and placed them on the cool bed. After setting the basket aside, they found a place to sit down. The cool bed is a type of bed used for sleeping in the summer. It is very low, only a few tens of centimeters high, and everyone sat on round cushions woven from cattails.
Lin Yihui came over carrying a stack of bowls and chopsticks and gave everyone a set. Lin Yiwan came over carrying two thermos flasks. Wen Xi asked curiously, "Yiwan, why are you carrying thermos flasks? Do you want some tea?"
Lin Yiwan smiled and shook her head, "This doesn't contain tea, but rather fruit wine that I brewed myself."
"Oh!" Wen Xi suddenly realized that the wine was made from the fruit in her space. She had to try it.
After everyone, including Lin Yiwan's cousins, arrived, Lin Yiwan poured a bowl of fruit wine for each person, and they ate and drank. Lin Yihui was leaving tomorrow, and they didn't know when they would see each other again. It was very likely that Wen Xi and the others would have returned to the city. So, while everyone was eating and drinking, a strong sense of reluctance arose in their hearts.
People easily develop feelings for anything; they can't bear to part with a cat or a dog. But many people simply can't develop feelings for their partner, and they're ruthless when it comes to abandoning or hurting them.
Just like Qian Qiusheng and his ex-fiancée, they had been dating for two years and were about to get married, but he easily changed his mind and fell in love with Chu Wan'er.
There was also Qian Chunxing and Zhao Mingzhu, who were engaged, but Qian Chunxing ran away with Li Wei.
"Delicious!" Everyone ate the snails directly with their hands, drinking alcohol as they ate, which was very enjoyable.
Wenxi also picked up the bowl and took a sip of fruit wine. As soon as it entered her mouth, she felt a burst of gas rush into her mouth, then bubbles rolled around in her mouth, followed by a sweet and sour taste with a strong fruity aroma. Although it wasn't as spicy as baijiu, she could still taste a bit of alcohol.
Although Wenxi had been fed wine with chopsticks by relatives when she was little, she had never formally drunk alcohol before. So after half a bowl of fruit wine, she felt a little dizzy, with waves of vertigo coming over her, but the impact was not great and she could bear it.
Everyone happily ate and drank, and soon the table was completely clean. Unexpectedly, cucumbers and lettuce cooked with crayfish in a spicy flavor were so delicious.
Lin's mother filled a basin with hot water and brought out soap, so that everyone could wash their hands thoroughly. Whether it was rapeseed oil or pork, it needed to be washed off with hot water.
While everyone was lining up to wash their hands, Lin's mother removed the basins and bowls from the table, wiped the oil off the table with soapy water, and then cut up a watermelon and brought it over for everyone to eat.
The watermelon smelled very strong; everyone could smell its fragrance even before they had a hand with it. Lin Yiwan had never seen such a big and red watermelon before, and she couldn't help but glance at Wen Xi.
If this watermelon were seedless, Lin Yiwan would definitely suspect Wen Xi, but since this watermelon has seeds, Lin Yiwan didn't suspect anything.
She looked at Wenxi because there were no watermelons in her space. She could collect some watermelon seeds and plant them in her space so that she could eat watermelons anytime, anywhere in the future.
