Thinking back to Xia Minglei and then looking at Pei Jingzhou, Lin Yiwan realized that Pei Jingzhou was the type she liked.
Looking at Wen Xi and then at Pei Jingzhou, you can tell that their family is a very harmonious one, and there shouldn't be any dirty things like bullying their daughter-in-law.
When the college entrance examination is reinstated, she will take it in Beijing, and Pei Jingzhou is from Beijing. In fact, he meets her requirements in many ways, but she doesn't know what kind of girl he likes.
Moreover, Pei Jingzhou's name is really nice to hear, it sounds like the name of a male protagonist in an online novel. Since he is not the male protagonist, could he be her male protagonist?
Thinking of this, Lin Yiwan covered her face shyly. She didn't even know how old Pei Jingzhou was, yet she was thinking so far ahead.
Soon it was the day before Pei Jingzhou was to leave. Wen Xi packed some local specialties for him with red eyes. She was really reluctant to see her second brother leave.
Qin Mi held Wen Xi's hand and said, "Xi, I'll be by your side from now on."
Wen Xi smiled and continued packing things for Pei Jingzhou. It was too hot this time of year, so cooked food couldn't be brought along. She could only pack some local specialties for him to have cooked when he got back to his workplace.
Like Yan Qiang and his wife, since his wife is pregnant, he will definitely try to supplement her nutrition, and there will probably be extra meals occasionally.
Pei Jingzhou could also borrow their pots to occasionally have a meal, since he had helped them deliver things to their homes, and they couldn't possibly refuse to help him when it was their turn!
The next morning, Pei Jingzhou got into Qin Mi's car and set off with him. Wen Xi didn't go to the train station to see him off because she was afraid she would burst into tears and didn't want her second brother to see her reluctant to part. Everyone has to work hard for their future, and she couldn't take up her second brother's time.
After Pei Jingzhou left, Wen Xi returned to her room, lay on her bed, her mind a jumble of thoughts, and tried not to think about anything.
It wasn't until noon that Wen Xi slipped into the system kitchen, boiled water, took a nice shower, washed her hair, changed into clean and refreshing clothes, and then came out.
Realizing she hadn't checked in for a long time, Wenxi clicked the check-in button and received a box of scar removal cream. Wenxi was overjoyed; with this scar removal cream, she shouldn't have to worry about these two unsightly scars staying with her for life.
There are no words on the outside of the scar removal cream, so you can use it with confidence and don't have to worry about anyone noticing.
Wenxi quickly opened a jar of scar removal cream, scooped out a spoonful with the small spoon that came with it, and applied it to her scars. The cream was very light and easier to spread than snow cream. Once applied to the scars, it felt clean and refreshing instantly, without any greasiness.
Qin Mi returned in the evening, and Pei Jingzhou went back. He had a visible smile on his face, as if Pei Jingzhou's presence had affected him in some way.
When Pei Jingzhou was around, Wenxi and Shen Jiaojiao lived together. Now that Pei Jingzhou has gone back, Wenxi is still living with Shen Jiaojiao, leaving Qin Mi to live alone in Wenxi's room.
Now that Wenxi has recovered and returned to a normal life, she no longer needs Qin Mi to take care of her day and night, and it's not appropriate for the two of them to share a room.
The wheat in the field is ripe and ready for harvest. Wenxi and the other two were about to cook, but because Wenxi had been seriously injured, Captain Qian didn't let her cook anymore and told her to just take care of the watermelon patch.
Managing the watermelon patch is easy. She just assigns tasks to others and occasionally goes to check on the watermelon growth.
Finally, before the wheat harvest, Wenxi decided to pick the early-ripening watermelons. Thatched huts were also built in the watermelon field for everyone to rest and cool off.
On the day of the watermelon harvest, all the village officials came. How could they be absent from such an exciting moment?
Captain Qian carried a watermelon to the thatched hut, cut it open with a knife, and with a crisp sound, the watermelon split in two, revealing bright red flesh that emitted a rich, refreshing aroma.
"It's ripe! It's ripe!" Captain Qian was overjoyed and laughed excitedly. "It's finally done! It's done! Our Fengshou Brigade now has its own industry!"
Everyone was overjoyed to see that the watermelons were ripe. Their months of hard work had paid off, and they were finally relieved.
Captain Qian cut the watermelon into small pieces and distributed them to everyone. Each person received a small piece. Wenxi took a bite and found it to be crisp and sweet, truly delicious.
After that, everyone started picking watermelons. Although no one could be sure if the watermelons were ripe, they made a record of when each watermelon was harvested and calculated the time to determine if they were ripe.
As for sales, the village officials were responsible for that, because the others were too weak to even get a meeting with the leaders of certain organizations, let alone discuss cooperation.
At this time, watermelons are very scarce, and even if people have money, they can hardly buy them. A watermelon can cost anywhere from a few yuan to more than ten yuan, which is really not something that ordinary people can afford.
Fortunately, the early-maturing watermelons grown in Wenxi are not particularly large, and you can buy one for just a few yuan. However, not everyone is willing to spend a few yuan to buy a watermelon.
So Wenxi shared an experience with Captain Qian: watermelons can be sold in slices. If you can't afford a whole one, you can buy a slice to try and satisfy your craving.
This is what she saw at the supermarket near Qin Mi's house. The supermarket sells those big watermelons cut in half or quarters.
Before Captain Qian and the village cadres could even go out to find sales channels, Qin Mi's subordinates arrived with approval from their unit and bought up all the ripe watermelons.
Three thousand catties of watermelons, at four cents a catty, brought in 1,200 yuan on the first day of selling watermelons. Everyone was almost going crazy with excitement. You know, in the past, a brigade wouldn't earn much money in a year. They never expected that they would earn so much money after picking just a few acres of watermelons, and there are still so many watermelons that are about to ripen in the watermelon field!
How much money will I have to make in the future?!
Once one organization buys their watermelons, other organizations will surely follow suit and order watermelons as well, so their village doesn't have to worry about sales at all.
Now that watermelons can be profitable, in order to prevent people from other villages from coming to steal or damage them, Captain Qian arranges for two villagers to come over every night to guard the watermelon field together with the two people from their side.
The villagers were overjoyed to learn that the watermelons had made so much money, and they promised not to gossip. After all, if the village made money, everyone would get a bigger share at the end of the year, and who would be so foolish as to tell others about such a good thing?
When Qin Mi arrived that evening, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue had already gone out to earn money.
