Chapter 73: Exchanging Dishes

Liu Xinghe responded without fear: "Leader, I promise to complete the task."

Deputy Minister Zhang nodded in agreement: "It's about time, Xiao Wu, you can see this girl off."

"Okay." Wu Yawen responded and helped Liu Xinghe carry the sack of books.

"Goodbye, leader."

Liu Xinghe followed Wu Yawen out of the office happily.

I didn't expect that she would have so many extra surprises when she came to the county today. The two little Japanese were just here to deliver equipment to her. She was bound to become a temporary worker in the armed forces department and wipe out those hidden little Japanese and cancers. Promotion and salary increase would not be a problem.

Liu Xinghe was thinking as she walked. When she was about to reach the door of the armed forces department, she glanced at the office building next to her. She caught a glimpse of a familiar figure on the second floor. Liu Xinghe turned her head and looked over to take a closer look. But it was not familiar. It was a stranger.

Liu Xinghe rubbed her eyes. How could she have blurry eyes at such a young age without feeling tired?

Liu Xinghe laughed at herself in her heart and shook her head. She didn't care about it for the time being. It wasn't long before the last bus left. She had to hurry.

After leaving the armed forces department, Liu Xinghe carried her things and walked quickly towards the station.

Some friends have already arrived at the station. Liu Xinghe saw a few people standing there waving at her. Only Li Zhizhi and Zhang Hua had not arrived yet. After saying hello, Liu Xinghe went to buy her own ticket and rejoined the group of friends. She chatted casually while waiting in line.

"When are you coming? You must have been waiting for a long time." "

It's okay. We just got here not long ago." Zhao Xifeng smiled and shook his head.

Wu Zhiyuan hugged Cheng Yunxiao and said with a smile: "The first one to arrive was Brother Yunxiao. When I arrived, he had already arrived."

"Really? Cheng Zhiqing came so early, but he didn't even take a walk. It's rare for him to go to the city." Liu Xinghe took over the conversation.

Cheng Yunxiao waved his hand: "It's not too early. In fact, we are all the same. I was just a little bit earlier than you. We all arrived at the same time."

Zhao Xifeng waved his hand happily: "Everyone is here. You can get ready to go."

When everyone was here, they stopped chatting and lined up to enter the station and return to the team.

When Liu Xinghe returned to the team, he went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables for dinner. Cheng Yunxiao, the owner of the vegetable garden next door, was also picking vegetables in his vegetable garden.

Cheng Yunxiao stood by the pumpkin vine and checked the pumpkins that had grown on it. He looked up and said to Liu Xinghe in the next field: "Liu Zhiqing, can I trade pumpkins for some tomatoes and peppers?"

"Sure, come and pick them. I saw the pumpkin rice you cooked before and the pumpkin looked delicious. I will try it today."

Liu Xinghe readily agreed. She and Cheng Zhiqing had eaten pumpkins together countless times. She had eaten a lot of pumpkin seeds in Cheng Zhiqing's pumpkins, which were indeed very fragrant, but she had never eaten the main pumpkins in his field.

Liu Xinghe glanced at Cheng Zhiqing's vegetable field.

Well, she also liked other vegetables in Cheng Zhiqing's field, but before she said anything, Cheng Yunxiao was like a roundworm in her stomach, accurately speaking out her thoughts.

"Liu Zhiqing, if you like other vegetables, we can exchange them. I want to exchange them for a bunch of your vine vegetables. It will be perfect to eat with pumpkin porridge tonight."

"As for vine vegetables, you can just pick them. They will grow again and grow better. I can't eat them all. Many of them are old." Liu Xinghe pointed at the vegetables in the field and said, "Liu Zhiqing, if you want to exchange any vegetables in the future, just come to my vegetable field. It happens that the vegetables in your field are also my favorites. I want to exchange them for a bunch of your cowpeas and pickle them in the kimchi pit when I go back."

She also took a fancy to the cucumbers and eggplants planted in Cheng Zhiqing's vegetable field, vegetables she didn't have.

"Sure, sure, pick as many as you want. My cowpeas grow so fast that I can't finish them all." Cheng Yunxiao nodded immediately and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! I also like the vegetables in your field. Why don't we grow different vegetables and exchange them later? That way, we can have more vegetables to eat and don't have to eat the same ones every day. I won't hide it from you. I've been picking pumpkins, eggplants, cowpeas, and yellow beans every day for the past one or two months. "I'm really tired of eating melons and melons all the time."

Liu Xinghe felt the same way. Summer vegetables are like this. You can eat them for one or two months at a time, and the vegetables in the field are getting more and more. She picked a lot of them to send to her parents, and also picked a lot of them to store in the fresh food area of ​​the space supermarket. But there are still a lot of vegetables in the field, especially the vine vegetables, which grow faster and better after every rain.

Thanks to her space, she can eat different vegetables and store them for later consumption.

However, the area for planting medicinal herbs in the space needs to be expanded recently, and she is considering clearing the fruit and vegetable fields in the space to plant medicinal herbs.

After hearing Cheng Yunxiao's suggestion, she agreed:

"Your suggestion is good. Then let's discuss with each other when we plant vegetables in the future, so that we can avoid planting the same vegetables. In a while, we will have to plant winter vegetables. Why don't we pick vegetables and talk about what to plant now."

Liu Xinghe suggested this. The vegetables that can be planted on a piece of land are always limited, and their energy is also limited. If they can plant different vegetables and then exchange them, they can have more vegetables to eat in the future. After

a month or two of contact, Comrade Cheng is still very good. He is not short of money and is not the kind of person who will take advantage of others. She and he will not let anyone suffer losses when exchanging vegetables. It can be said to be a mutually beneficial good thing.

"Then let's put it this way, Liu Zhiqing, you go to my field to pick, and I'll go to your field to pick, and we can chat while we pick."

Cheng Yunxiao was very happy. He just wanted to create more opportunities for contact, and now it's here. There has been nothing lively in the brigade recently, and the friendship between the two has always been limited to watching plays and eating melon seeds. He has to create more opportunities for himself.

Cheng Yunxiao carried his own basin and walked towards Liu Xinghe's vegetable field. Liu Xinghe also carried a dustpan and walked to the cowpea vines he planted and began to pick young cowpeas.

The two chatted about the vegetables to be planted in winter while picking vegetables. After picking the vegetables, they also allocated what vegetables to plant.

Cheng Yunxiao's vegetable field is planted with coriander, green onions, celery, beets, radishes, rapeseed, and baby cabbage.

Liu Xinghe planted peas, lettuce, cauliflower, cabbage, and Swiss chard in his vegetable garden.

Swiss chard can not only be eaten by himself, but also fed to pigs, mainly pigs. Liu Xinghe had thought it through. People eat the tenderest part in the middle of a pea, and pigs eat all the rest. After

discussing this, Cheng Yunxiao gave Liu Xinghe the money to buy seeds. Liu Xinghe worked in the supply and marketing cooperative, so it was convenient for him to buy seeds.

"You buy them and I will grow the seedlings. I am familiar with this." Cheng Yunxiao took on the next task first.

"Okay, I'm not very good at raising seedlings, so I'll just plant the seedlings you've raised in the field." Liu Xinghe also planned to buy some different vegetable seeds so that she could grow different kinds of vegetables at home, so that she could have more vegetables to eat.

And the area in her space where she grew vegetables could be used to grow medicinal herbs, so she didn't have to think about

it anymore. "Okay, it's decided." Cheng Yunxiao said happily, "Then I'll go make dinner first."

"Well, go ahead, I'll go back and make dinner too." After solving a big problem, Liu Xinghe walked into the house in a good mood with a dustpan to cook dinner.

Cheng Yunxiao clenched his fists and shook them excitedly a few times, then looked at Liu Xinghe's back and turned around and walked in the opposite direction, with brisk steps. Just looking at his back, you can tell how happy he is.

After dinner, Liu Xinghe started to plan his training and made a training schedule.

Since he was not suitable for strenuous exercise after dinner, Liu Xinghe took out the books he had found today one by one after making the schedule.

He made a bowl of paste, took a stick of solid glue, and put a small piece of rice on the table. He took a small piece of bamboo strips and began to paste away the "Journey to the West" comic book and several review materials that were not seriously damaged. He glued those pages that had fallen off to the right position and glued those that were about to fall off firmly.
