After enjoying a delicious meal, Wenxi tidied up and went to the cafeteria.
When He Chen'an went to work, he carried that big watermelon to the hospital, which immediately attracted the attention of all the medical staff. It wasn't until lunchtime that He Chen'an went to the cafeteria to borrow a kitchen knife, scalded the knife with boiling water several times, and then cut the watermelon open.
When everyone came over to get some watermelon, they were all curious about how He Chen'an got the watermelon. He Chen'an proudly said, "My girlfriend brought me this watermelon."
Although he didn't see Wen Xi in the morning, he knew it was Wen Xi.
Because Wenxi really likes to use this trick.
"Dr. He, you have a girlfriend?" someone asked incredulously, because he had always been aloof and indifferent in his interpersonal relationships, and everyone thought he wasn't interested in women!
Now I realize it's because the woman he's interested in hasn't shown up yet!
"Yes, I have a girlfriend, and we've agreed to get married next year." He Chen'an's tone was full of pride, after all, not many people in this world are as lucky as him to meet such an outstanding, beautiful and wonderful girl.
Upon hearing this, the nurses were immediately disappointed. They hadn't even had a chance to express their feelings yet, and Dr. He already had a girlfriend and was getting married next year.
The watermelon was crisp, tender, and sweet, but they found it tasteless.
"Dr. He, when are you going to bring your partner over so everyone can meet her?" one doctor joked.
"You'll all see each other when we get married." He Chen'an brought over a few slices of watermelon and went to the cafeteria to return the kitchen knife.
That evening, when Wenxi was serving food to everyone, she suddenly heard a cheerful voice, "So you work here!"
When Wen Xi looked up, she saw that it was Gu Ningzhi, the driver from the transport team who had stopped her outside to take her home, and the person standing behind him was the one who was with him.
Wen Xi responded indifferently, then served him food without saying much. As for why he was at the Harvest Brigade or what business he had, these were not things Wen Xi needed to worry about.
After the rice harvest, they quickly plowed the fields and then transplanted late rice seedlings, which were to be harvested at the end of October or the beginning of November.
The busy double harvest season ended thanks to everyone's joint efforts. There were a few thunderstorms during the season, but they came and went quickly and did not cause much of an impact.
When everyone loaded bags of dried rice onto the transport team's truck, Wenxi realized that the Party Secretary had borrowed their truck to deliver the grain. The transport team's truck would only need to make one or two trips to finish the task. If the villagers were to deliver the grain themselves, not only would the entire village have to be mobilized, but the grain still wouldn't be delivered in a timely manner.
After the grain was delivered, Captain Qian gave everyone two days off. Half of them took the day off first, and the other half took it later. The fields couldn't be left unattended, since the late rice had only just been planted and hadn't even taken root yet!
In the evening, Wenxi and her friends cleaned up the canteen. Wenxi brought in several large fish baskets and placed them against the corner of the wall. After locking the canteen door, everyone went home.
After resting for a while, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue took their equipment and went out. It was already August, and summer was almost over. They wanted to seize the last days of summer to earn more money so that they wouldn't have to worry about money in the fall and winter.
Of course, if they still want to make money by then, Wenxi will naturally continue to provide them with ways to make money. However, by then, they will have to take action on their own, and Wenxi will not be responsible for after-sales service.
Wenxi didn't go out because she had something to do that evening. She went to the back of the alley to trade the mushrooms with everyone first, and then waited at home.
Upon hearing the knock, Wenxi went to open the door and saw the children bringing over cicada nymphs, frogs, and snakes. Wenxi gave them candy according to their weight, and after they left, she stored the items in the system warehouse.
She decided to take advantage of this break to hold a party because she had something to tell everyone.
Wenxi locked the courtyard gate and went to the system kitchen to start processing. She first cleaned up the cicadas, frogs, and snakes, and then began processing them.
She made stir-fried cicadas, green pepper frog legs, braised snake meat, braised snails, spicy snails, and pan-fried fish pieces.
Vegetarian dishes include stir-fried pumpkin shreds, smashed cucumber, cold black fungus salad, and stir-fried water spinach.
The soups were tomato and egg soup and mushroom soup.
It didn't cost much money, just some candy and time.
After preparing all the dishes needed for the gathering, Wenxi began processing the snails. She would go to the black market in a few days to see how well the snails were selling. If the sales were poor and the black market didn't want them, then she could keep the snails she had prepared in advance for herself to eat slowly!
Wenxi stayed in the kitchen for several hours, while not much time had passed outside. However, she couldn't stay in the system kitchen all the time, so after preparing today's portion, Wenxi came out directly.
After taking a shower and washing my hair, I sat under the eaves in my nightgown, enjoying the breeze. The evening wind was cool and refreshing. The starry sky was also incredibly beautiful; every star shone like a diamond, some even twinkling as if they were blinking.
Wenxi no longer harbors such resentment and is no longer in a hurry to contact her family. Anyway, she can take leave to go back at the end of the year and give them a 'surprise' then.
After her hair was dried by the wind, Wenxi took a comb and slowly combed it, smelling the fragrance emanating from her hair. She felt particularly satisfied.
After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue returned and washed up, Wen Xi quietly stored their work from the night into the system's warehouse. The summer temperature was too high, and Wen Xi was afraid that these things would die.
The next morning, Wenxi got up early as usual, picked the vegetables from both houses, served breakfast, and then set off.
Arriving at the agreed-upon place, He Chen'an straddled the bicycle as usual.
When Wen Xi arrived, He Chen'an's face lit up with a bright smile, and Wen Xi was also very happy. After all, who wouldn't be happy to see her boyfriend?
"Where do you want to go today?" He Chen'an helped Wen Xi into the car.
“I want to go to the flower field to collect seeds first. It’s already the beginning of autumn, so most of the flower seeds should be ripe. I also brought picnic supplies. Let’s have a picnic by that mountain stream!” Wen Xi turned to look at He Chen’an.
He Chen'an nodded, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
After that, he rode his bicycle to the place where the flower field was located. He still hasn't bought a house because he wants a house with a yard. Wenxi has collected so many flower seeds, so they can't just be left there to go to waste without a place to plant them!
