Wen Xi put all her belongings into the system warehouse and didn't leave them in her room. There wasn't a single eye-catching thing in her room because she was afraid that one day when she wasn't home, someone would use the same things that Nie Xiulan had done on her.
Just as Wen Xi was about to slip into the system kitchen, a knock suddenly sounded on the door.
Wen Xi quickly went to open the door and was somewhat surprised to see Jiang Yue standing outside.
"Xiaoxi, are you busy right now? May I come in?" Jiang Yue asked tentatively.
Wen Xi nodded. "Come in!"
Jiang Yue entered Wen Xi's room, sat on the edge of Wen Xi's bed, and looked around. It was clear that she had something to say or something to say.
Wen Xi sat down on the bed, picked up the newspaper and started reading. As she read, she asked, "Xiao Yue, what brings you here? What do you want?"
Jiang Yue hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking, "Xiao Xi, did Qin Mi write this letter to you today?"
Wen Xi was a little confused. He Chen'an wrote to her every day, and Jin Changfeng sent her a package about once a month. They never asked about it before, so why did Jiang Yue start asking about her private affairs as soon as she received a letter from Qin Mi?
"Xiaoyue, just say what you want to say. What kind of relationship do we have? Why are you hesitating like this?" Wenxi said with a smile.
"Um... why did Qin Mi write you a letter?" Jiang Yue asked tentatively.
"Oh, I want to buy a bicycle, but I don't have a bicycle ticket, so I asked him to help me find one. He said he hasn't found one yet, and told me not to worry, he'll send it to me as soon as he finds it." Wen Xi secretly observed Jiang Yue, not telling the truth.
She doesn't like to share her private matters with others.
"So that's how it is!" Jiang Yue exclaimed before leaving Wen Xi's room. Wen Xi had no idea what Jiang Yue meant by asking about Qin Mi. After locking the door, Wen Xi slipped into the system's kitchen and went to process the snails. She wanted to turn all these worthless things from the countryside into money.
She has her own automated kitchen and high-tech smart machines, so all she has to do is the last step – cooking – which is not troublesome at all.
After working in the system kitchen for a while, Wenxi came out because she had to teach Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhao Huihui. Chang Qingqing had helped them a lot when they first arrived, so Wenxi wanted to repay them properly.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhao Huihui learned real skills, which will enable them to have a good life in the future.
After class, the three of them took turns washing up and then went back to their rooms to rest.
The temperature is still quite high in September, so everyone has not yet taken off the bamboo mats on their beds. However, we have prepared thin blankets so that we can use them if we feel cold at night.
That day, when Wenxi went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, she met many people from the team, and everyone came over to greet her warmly.
Wen Xi was flattered, but she didn't get carried away. There must be something fishy about this. These people were suddenly being so nice to her, so there must be something wrong with it. So when everyone greeted her, she was indifferent and didn't say much or let anyone try to get information out of her.
Not only were the older women very welcoming to Wenxi, but even the unmarried girls in the village were very enthusiastic towards her.
People would send Wenxi wild vegetables, wild fruits, or small trinkets, but Wenxi politely declined them all because she didn't want to give anyone a handle to use against her.
Qian Qiusheng had previously brought her vegetables and eggs, but she refused them. However, Qian Qiusheng's second sister-in-law still insisted that she had accepted them. If she had actually accepted them, then it would be difficult to explain.
So she doesn't take a single penny from others, and she doesn't lack these things.
Later, to avoid running into everyone again, Wenxi would bring out the dishes for lunch and dinner in the cupboard in the morning, while she would run into the mountains and pick mushrooms all day, only coming down when it got dark.
Fortunately, there are mushrooms and wild fruits on the mountain this season, otherwise she wouldn't be able to stay there. Even if she stayed in the system kitchen for a day, she wouldn't be able to stand it. Because one day outside is equivalent to several days inside, she would get bored and exhausted from cooking for several days. People still need to live a normal life in the real world.
By the end of September, sweet potatoes, cotton, peanuts, corn, and some other crops were ripe and ready for harvest, so the team began to arrange for people to harvest them.
However, these things are not harvested as quickly as wheat and rice, and it's not too busy or tiring at this time, so there's no large canteen, and everyone cooks for themselves.
Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue went out to work, while Wen Xi continued to gather pig feed as before. Since it was already autumn, it was time to start stockpiling food for the pigs and cattle for the winter and spring, otherwise there would be nothing to feed them.
However, the harvest brigade planted high-yield forage grass this year, which can be dried and kept for winter consumption. Therefore, there is not much to worry about in terms of pig and cattle feed. Wenxi only needs to gather pig feed to earn work points.
While Wenxi was cutting pig feed on the mountain, an auntie suddenly came over, leaned close to Wenxi, and whispered, "Wenxi, is that Director Qin really your neighbor?"
Wen Xi threw down the sickle with a snap, looking up at the woman in front of her with disbelief. "Auntie, do you not even believe Director Qin's words? Do you not take Director Qin seriously at all? Don't you have any respect for people? Is Director Qin someone you can question?"
Seeing the warning in Wen Xi's eyes, the auntie hurriedly stepped back, then waved her hand, "Wen Xi, I didn't mean any disrespect to Director Qin. In fact, I respect Director Qin very much, so I would like to ask you to invite Director Qin to my home for dinner. Could you please invite Director Qin for me?"
"Auntie, since your family wants to invite Director Qin to our home for dinner, then please go find Captain Qian and have him invite Director Qin to dinner in the name of the brigade. A private invitation is a bribe. Are you trying to harm Director Qin? What are you really up to?"
Wenxi approached her aunt step by step, while her aunt retreated step by step. She hurriedly explained, "Wenxi, I didn't mean to frame Director Qin. I just wanted to introduce my daughter to him so she could be his wife. I'm doing this for Director Qin's sake. He's a big man and not good at many things. He ultimately needs a woman by his side to take care of him and help him manage the household. Besides, my daughter has a slim waist and big hips, which is good for childbearing. You can tell at a glance that she can give birth to a son..."
"I don't know if Director Qin has a girlfriend or wife, so I can't help you with this." Wen Xi sneered, picked up her sickle and basket and walked away. After a few steps, she waved the sickle at her aunt, making a gesture as if she was about to chop someone up, which scared her aunt so much that she quickly turned around and ran away.
