However, Lin Yiwan refused. She said that if she wanted persimmons, she would go to her grandmother's house to pick them herself. Besides, there were persimmon trees on the mountain near them, so she was sure she could find some if she went up the mountain.
Most importantly, she also has a lot of persimmon trees in her space, which she used to grow herself using persimmon seeds. Now the persimmon yield is huge!
After Lin Yiwan rode away on her bicycle, Wen Xi went home and went to the kitchen. She picked out the persimmons that were the most yellow from a pile of persimmons and buried them in the rice jar. In a few days, the persimmons would be ready to eat.
Wen Xi put the remaining persimmons into the system warehouse. Remembering the fruit Lin Yiwan had given her, she used her consciousness to explore the warehouse for a while and unexpectedly found a bunch of persimmons. It seemed that Lin Yiwan also grew persimmons in her space.
Persimmons are not valuable and are hard to sell. Overripe persimmons are soft and easily rot, making them difficult to preserve and transport. However, if persimmons are processed into dried persimmons before they ripen, these problems are eliminated.
So Wenxi moved a basket of persimmons, put them into the machine, and pressed the 'Persimmon Dried Fruit Making' button. She didn't have to do the rest; the machine would first clean the persimmons and then peel them.
She had already worked hard to earn the energy the system needed, so she naturally didn't need to work hard anymore.
At noon, Wenxi brought out a dish of seafood in a broth, boiled river shrimp, stir-fried wood ear mushrooms and yam, chopped a large bowl of mushrooms, and made a pot of fragrant mushroom soup.
While eating, Shen Jiaojiao held the large river shrimp by the tail in one hand and the head in the other, sucking out the plump shrimp roe. As she ate, she said, "This river shrimp is really delicious. I've been craving it ever since I had it last time. I didn't expect to be able to eat it again today. Xiaoxi, where did you catch this river shrimp? I want to catch some too."
"They're everywhere there's water, it just depends on whether you can find them!" When Wenxi caught them, she didn't catch them all, but left a small number of the big ones and some small ones. You can still catch them if you want, but it seems that no one has yet discovered that the big river shrimp are edible.
Wenxi has started farming river shrimp. If you want to eat them, you can just use a fishing net to catch them. You don't need to go outside to catch them anymore.
The river prawns have so much meat! Each bite is incredibly satisfying and filling, even more so than eating crayfish. The prawns are so big that a few are enough to make you feel full, so Wenxi prepared five for each person. After all, there are other delicious foods to eat, and once you're full, you won't be able to eat anything else.
As Jiang Yue came out of the kitchen, she asked in a low voice, "Xiao Xi, when are you planning to go?"
"Let's wait a couple of days. I don't really need to go out unless I have something to do!" Wen Xi said helplessly, then quickly added, "Xiao Yue, didn't you go to Qin Mi's house? You can write to Qin Mi and quietly ask him if he has a girlfriend!"
Write a letter and hand it to the postman when he comes. You don't have to worry about anything. How convenient!
Jiang Yue hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry. Xiaoxi, why don't you ask for me? I'm afraid Qin Mi won't even read my letter."
Last time she secretly went to find Qin Mi, but she couldn't even get into the courtyard.
"Don't worry, if I run into Qin Mi, I'll definitely ask her for you." Wen Xi patted Jiang Yue's arm and quickly went back to her room.
Jiang Yue was so anxious that she couldn't keep up.
Two days later, on He Chen'an's day off, Wen Xi didn't ask He Chen'an to come to the countryside to pick her up this time. She said she would take a bus to the county town herself, so He Chen'an didn't leave early in the morning.
After feeding the chickens, Wenxi went out to the place where He Chen'an used to wait for her. She took out her electric bicycle and rode it towards the county town.
She decided to deliver the vegetables to Qin Mi first, and then go find He Chen'an.
Upon arriving at the gate of the compound, Wenxi handed the basket to Xiaowei for inspection. This time, she had brought a lunchbox of seafood in a broth and a lunchbox of boiled river shrimp.
In addition, there are fresh ingredients. This time, there is a processed rabbit, ten pounds of dried seafood, and the rest are various vegetables, which together weigh about twenty pounds.
Qin Mi is a tall man who is usually very active, so he must have a big appetite. If we don't prepare more vegetables, it might not be enough for him.
Most importantly, Qin Mi gave a lot – fifty yuan a month for groceries. You have to understand that at that time, twenty yuan a month was enough for a whole family to eat and drink.
Since Qin Mi gave her so much money, she naturally had to be responsible and treat Qin Mi as her boss.
After checking, Wenxi took the basket, put a bag of her homemade persimmon cakes in Xiaowei's bag, and ran inside with the basket on her back. Before she even reached the gate of Qin Mi's house, she saw Qin Michen running back. The thin fabric of his clothes could not hide his muscular body, and with his movements, one could vaguely see the smooth lines of his muscles.
In the morning light, Wenxi saw the glistening sweat on Qin Mi's face.
Seeing Qin Mi's face, Wen Xi couldn't help but think of Qin Mi in her twenties in the mission world. She wondered how everyone had become after she left.
On her last trip to the countryside, Wenxi told Qin Mi a lot of things to be careful about in the car. If Qin Mi was willing to trust her, then he should be able to get through the next few years peacefully.
Qin Mi ran to the door and was about to open it when she saw Wen Xi arrive. She was overjoyed, but when she saw Wen Xi staring blankly at her, Qin Mi was a little surprised. "Xi, what's wrong?"
Wen Xi snapped out of her daze and shook her head. "It's nothing."
Qin Mi opened the courtyard gate, beckoned Wen Xi inside, made her a cup of malted milk powder, and said, "Xi, you rest first, I'll go wash up."
After a while, Qin Mi finished washing up and went back to his room to change into clean and refreshing clothes. He looked refreshed and elegant. When Wen Xi saw him bring out a bowl of vegetable porridge, she quickly handed him two lunch boxes. "Qin Mi, these two dishes are still hot. Try them quickly."
"Thank you, Xi." Qin Mi took the lunchbox and placed it on the table. Then he opened the lids of the lunchboxes one by one. When he saw the seafood in broth inside, a sense of familiarity flashed through his mind, but he couldn't remember when or where he had seen these before.
Today was the first time that Wenxi had brought him seafood in a dipping sauce.
Qin Mi then looked up at Wen Xi sitting opposite him, seemingly trying to find clues on her face. Wen Xi also looked at him with a strange gaze, as if she were looking through him at someone else.
Wen Xi snapped out of her daze and saw Qin Mi staring at her. Feeling a little embarrassed, she asked, "Brother Qin, what's wrong? Don't you like this? Or are you allergic to it?"
Qin Mi shook her head. "No, I mean it smells very good, so good that it makes your mouth water."
