“There’s something wrong with the two bottles of wine they just brought over. If we all pass out, we’ll all be at their mercy. Didn’t you notice that every time they toasted us, their mouths didn’t even touch the wine?” If they all pass out, or if they all take Chinese medicine, Cao Jianyu’s cousin will help Lin Yihui to her room, and then it will be impossible to explain anything.
Upon hearing Lin Yiwan's words, Cao Jianyu's body trembled uncontrollably. Her cousin's family was actually plotting against them.
How can someone be so vicious?
Back home, Lin Yiwan took the wine out and brought it to Lin Yihui's room. "Big brother, this is the wine that my sister-in-law and uncle brought over at noon. I didn't dare to drink their wine, so I secretly replaced these two bottles with the wine from my sister-in-law's house. Take it and have it tested to see what's in it!"
It would be best to completely eliminate Cao Jianyu's cousin, otherwise what if she schemes against Cao Jianyu when Lin Yihui is not at home?
Otherwise, it wouldn't just be Lin Yihui who needs to be watched. Lin Yihui is working outside, so they can't find him, making it easy for them to target Cao Jianyu.
Lin Yihui realized the seriousness of the matter and quickly went to deal with it. He would soon be going back to work, leaving Cao Jianyu at home. Moreover, since the house had been built, she would be living alone. If the potential danger was not resolved, Cao Jianyu would be in great danger in the future.
Summer brings abundant rainfall, leading to a surge in wild mushroom growth. Wenxi visits the watermelon field almost daily, then takes a basket to the mountains to pick mushrooms. The lush vegetation on the mountains makes it particularly cool, so picking mushrooms doesn't feel hot at all.
Sometimes, when Wenxi comes across edible wild vegetables or fruits, she will pick them.
Although Wenxi already has a lot of fresh and dried mushrooms, she saw mushrooms at Qin Mi's supermarket, some of which cost several hundred yuan per kilogram. So, spending money to stock up on some mushrooms now is not necessarily a waste of time and money. She can use them to pass the time when she gets old!
That day, while picking mushrooms on the mountain, Wen Xi ran into Lin Yiwan and Cao Jianyu. The three greeted each other, and then Lin Yiwan leaned close to Wen Xi and whispered, "Xiao Xi, can I take someone else to the waterfall you took me to before?"
Wen Xi nodded, "Sure, but don't bring anyone unimportant."
The river still holds the crabs and fish she raised, along with the fruits and vegetables she grew this year. Naturally, she doesn't want to let outsiders benefit from them. She'll go back next summer to harvest the crabs and fish she raised, and then release some seedlings. Once she leaves, she'll never concern herself with those things again.
Lin Yiwan nodded, "Of course, I definitely won't bring any random people with me."
Lin Yiwan and Cao Jianyu went back after buying mushrooms, while Wen Xi was still picking mushrooms on the mountain. Seeing the fresh and tender mushrooms standing there, she couldn't bear to waste them.
Most importantly, mushrooms are really delicious; even the simplest soup is very tasty.
Wen Xi thought Lin Yiwan was asking if she could take people to the waterfall, and that Lin Yiwan would take people there to play. She didn't expect that she would go first.
That day, Qin Mi was off work and wanted to take Wen Xi out to play.
With only one day to spare, they could only go to the cinema and stroll in the park. However, there were many places to visit in the county that Wenxi and He Chen'an had been to before. Moreover, it was really too hot now, and they would be covered in sweat after just a few minutes outside. Wenxi didn't want to go out in the sun, so she decided to go on a picnic in the mountains with Qin Mi.
The two prepared their picnic supplies early in the morning and headed up the mountain with their things. Qin Mi carried a basket in his hand and another on his back, while Wen Xi carried nothing, as Qin Mi had taken care of everything.
The two of them didn't go anywhere else, but went directly to the vicinity of the waterfall, but not directly under the waterfall, but found a relatively secluded place.
That way, even if other people come here to play, they won't easily notice that they're having a picnic.
The two found a suitable spot. Qin Mi took out a bamboo mat and laid it out. After Wen Xi sat down, she took out the food from her basket and placed it on the mat.
Wenxi didn't bring any cooked food, fearing the high temperature would spoil the flavor, so she brought fruit, picnic utensils, and seasonings so she could cook in the mountains.
After settling their things, the two took their fish baskets and went down to the waterfall to catch fish and crabs. It was still early, so the river water was still cool.
Wenxi was afraid of hurting her feet on the stones at the bottom of the river, so she went into the water wearing sandals. The water was shallow, only up to her ankles. As long as it didn't suddenly rain, nothing would happen.
After catching about ten crabs, Wenxi took them ashore to process them, while Qin Mi continued catching more and some fish. They couldn't just eat crabs; crabs don't have much meat, and no matter how many crabs they caught, they wouldn't be full!
Wenxi returned to their picnic spot, took out some large crabs she had previously stored in the warehouse, cleaned them, and then cooked them in a pot.
Afterwards, Wenxi took two cups of bubble tea with ice from the warehouse. Since it tasted as sweet as malted milk powder, she could tell Qin Mi that it was malted milk powder, since Qin Mi wouldn't know anyway.
But if we bring out something that doesn't exist in this era, Qin Mi will definitely have second thoughts.
Wenxi poured the chilled bubble tea into their teacups, put the lids on, and placed them on bamboo mats.
After that, Wenxi put her hands behind her head, lay on the bamboo mat, crossed her legs, and had a foxtail grass in her mouth. She looked extremely comfortable.
Suddenly seeing Qin Mi standing above her, Wen Xi quickly sat up. "Brother Qin, you caught the fish so quickly?"
"We caught several. If it's not enough, we'll catch more later."
"The crabs are almost cooked." Wenxi quickly went over and opened the pot lid. In the steaming heat, the crabs had turned an enticing color.
Wenxi used chopsticks to pick out the crabs one by one, and then started cooking the second pot.
After cooking the second pot of crabs, the two sat on bamboo mats and began to eat them. Qin Mi looked at Wen Xi and said, "Xi, don't you really want to go somewhere else to play? I feel like I've never taken you out to play before."
"There's nothing fun to do right now. Let's wait until there's something more fun in the future!" Wen Xi said with a bright smile.
Right now, we can only do a few things like go to the park, watch movies, and shop at department stores, but things will be different in the future. We can travel everywhere and eat delicious food from all over the world.
“Okay, Xi, wherever you want to go in the future, I will go with you,” Qin Mi said.
