On the way back that evening, Gu Ningzhi parked the car by the woods and pulled her over to him. At first, they just hugged and kissed, but then things escalated...
The driver's seat was only so big, and she couldn't refuse, so...
However, she had originally planned to be with Gu Ningzhi, and originally wanted to play hard to get and delay it, but she couldn't help herself and it happened.
It's okay if it's earlier than planned. It's just that we're together, it doesn't mean he's the one for her in this life. How could she give up an entire forest for one person?
Xu Mengying got married and moved out, Tian Xiaoke returned to the city, Wang Caiyun and Wu Guoqiang live in the thatched house next door, and now only Wang Xinru, Zuo Qiuyi and Yang Liling are left at the educated youth settlement.
Although it was dark, it was still quite early, and no one could sleep. Seeing that the dormitory was quiet, Yang Liling asked, "Do you think more educated youth will come? What if, like last time, three girls come all at once, and we can't fit them all here?"
"They'll probably come back again!" Wang Xinru said uncertainly, "After all, they haven't stopped doing this yet!"
“Isn’t Xia Minglei and Tian Xiaoke’s thatched hut vacant? If there’s not enough room, just arrange for two people to stay there,” Zuo Qiuyi said.
Wang Xinru frowned. "The captain will handle any problems. This is not something we need to worry about. We just need to take care of ourselves."
As she spoke, she glanced at Zuoqiu Yi, since Zuoqiu Yi had inquired about Wen Xi as soon as she arrived, and everyone knew that there was something wrong with her.
Zuo Qiuyi lay down and said nothing more.
Yang Liling took the thermos to wash up, and then came back to lie down and rest. The dormitory quickly became quiet.
After the New Year, everyone will be going back to work. Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue went to work, but there was no pig feed to gather, so Wenxi went to the watermelon field to find out what was going on.
The village has already cleared ten acres of wasteland, but those responsible for clearing the wasteland are still clearing it because they are earning full work points every day. Everyone wants to earn more work points so that they can get more grain at the end of the year.
Wenxi hadn't expected that Captain Qian would trust her so much. Not only had he already cleared ten acres of land, but he was still continuing to clear more. Ten acres of land could produce tens of thousands of kilograms of watermelons, which would earn them a lot of money.
While everyone else is at work, Wenxi and his group, who are responsible for growing watermelons, can't just sit idle all the time, otherwise the villagers will complain to death.
Wenxi gathered all the people who had agreed to grow watermelons together and taught them how to prepare the watermelon plot. The temperature was still too low to plant watermelons, but they could prepare the land first so that they could sow the seeds when the time was right.
Including Lin Yiwan, their Watermelon Team has a total of ten people, so Wen Xi arranged a shift. The three who lived together were in a group and were responsible for a certain time period. Lin Yiwan was with the three of them because their group did not have a single male member, and the disparity in strength between them and the other two groups was too great.
Anyway, they just need to work in the watermelon field for a while each day so that everyone can see that they are working. They don't need to work for work points, and they don't need to work all the time.
Time passed day by day, and soon it was the end of February. With the arrival of March, spring planting would officially begin, so Wenxi and the others also started planting watermelons.
Wenxi took out the early-maturing watermelon seeds that Qin Mi's mother had bought for her, and then everyone started planting watermelons. They started planting now, and when the watermelon seedlings were big enough in March, they could be transplanted.
It's impossible for every watermelon seed to germinate, and it's impossible for every watermelon seedling to grow strong. In the end, thinning and transplanting will be necessary.
The people responsible for digging the holes dug them according to the distance, then the people responsible for sowing the seeds threw two or three seeds into each hole, and the third group of people were responsible for covering the holes with soil.
Everyone worked for two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon, which was very easy. Captain Qian didn't know anything about growing watermelons, so he didn't urge Wenxi. He just asked Wenxi if the slow pace of planting would have any impact.
Wenxi told Captain Qian that if the watermelons were planted at the same time, they would all ripen at the same time. What if they couldn't be sold in time and the watermelons rotted in their hands?
Planting and ripening in batches means you don't have to worry about watermelons rotting in your hands.
Moreover, there are late-maturing watermelon varieties that can be planted in June or July, so there's no need to worry about the slow planting speed. Just plant all the cleared land before July.
Seeing that Wen Xi harbored prejudice, Captain Qian didn't say anything more.
One day in March, Zhu Ying came to Jin Changqing's door again. She hadn't been there since Lunar New Year's Eve, and even after guessing that Jin Changqing had returned, she didn't come to see her again.
But she had to come today because she had something very important to take care of.
Seeing that the door was unlocked, Zhu Ying knew someone was inside. She knocked on the door, and Gu Yuanshan, hearing the knock, went to open it. Seeing Zhu Ying standing outside, he was somewhat surprised. "Comrade, who are you? Who are you looking for?"
Zhu Ying smiled faintly, "I am Zhu Ying. Have you forgotten me so quickly?"
Gu Yuanshan's expression changed instantly. The woman who slept in his and Jin Changqing's bed on New Year's Eve.
Zhu Ying raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you going to invite me in? If others hear what I'm here to talk about today, your career and your life will be ruined."
Gu Yuanshan had no choice but to let Zhu Ying in. After they sat down in the main room, Gu Yuanshan asked coldly, "What brings you here today? Didn't you say you wouldn't come again?"
He realized that he couldn't trust this woman's words; perhaps it was all part of her conspiracy.
"I didn't want to come either!" Zhu Ying sighed heavily, then placed her hand on her stomach. "But the baby in my belly can't wait. I'm a nurse, so I know I'm pregnant. It's been over a month now. If we don't deal with it soon, we won't be able to hide it anymore. This child is your first child after all. Do you want it or not? I'll listen to you."
"Are you sure the child is mine?" Gu Yuanshan asked incredulously. "I'll be out soon, so this won't..."
“But you came out quickly too!” Zhu Ying emphasized. “Besides, you’re my only man. If this child isn’t yours, whose is it? Can I conjure up a child myself? I don’t have that kind of ability.”
Gu Yuanshan clutched his head in pain. "My mind is a mess right now. Can you let me think about it?"
"Okay, then give me an answer as soon as possible. I'll come see you again next week when I'm off work. If you want this child, you have to give me a legal status. I can't be pregnant out of wedlock and then raise your child all by myself, can I?"
