Chapter 38: Joking and Laughing!



"Last time I went to the county town, I bought these to cook and eat during the harvest season."

Lin Jingyu remained calm, saying, "The harvest season is very tough. We have to start working at dawn and sometimes we can't rest until midnight."

If I don't get enough nutrition, my body will quickly break down, especially since I'm still growing. Of course, I need to prepare things to supplement my nutrition.

"Sister Jingyu is right."

Liu Xiuying nodded and said, "When it's harvest time at home, we'll buy a few pounds of meat and slaughter two chickens to eat. Otherwise, everyone will be unable to make ends meet. The harvest work is too hard and tiring."

"Jingyu, didn't you just arrive two or three months ago?"

Yang Shujue couldn't help but ask, "How do you know so much about the emergency harvest?"

"Yang Zhiqing, you don't know this."

Without Lin Jingyu needing to explain, Liu Xiuying took the initiative to tell her, "Because the harvest season lasts for about half a month, everyone is very hard-working and tired every day, so we tell the educated youth about these things in advance."

Not only do we say it, but the village chief, group leader, and team leader also remind everyone.

We hope everyone will prepare in advance to avoid any unexpected situations during the harvest.

No matter what happens, the village chief will not allow anyone to take leave; all children over ten years old must participate.

You'll learn about these things once you work there for a few days.

"I see."

Yang Shujue knew she was being paranoid.

He smiled sheepishly at Lin Jingyu and said, "Jingyu, I didn't mean anything by it, I was just curious."

"fine."

Lin Jingyu secretly complained that she was doubting herself again.

He responded calmly, "It's not surprising that you don't know this since you're new here. When you have a chance, go to the town or the county seat and buy some meat to store so you can eat it when the harvest season comes."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Lin Jingyu said to the other two, "He Zhiqing, Wang Zhiqing, could you please pick some green beans, eggplants, and cucumbers? I can't pick the vegetables from my garden yet."

"no problem."

He Zhenhua readily agreed.

“I said, Lin Zhiqing, you know we have lots of vegetables in our private plots. You can pick as many as you want to eat.”

Wang Hongliang couldn't help but joke, "It's much better to always be eaten up by some ungrateful wretches, don't you think?"

"Okay."

Lin Jingyu smiled and nodded, "Now I'll go pick some vegetables from your garden first. You can pick whatever you like from my garden whenever it has vegetables in the future."

"This method is good."

Not wanting to be left out, Yang Shujue joined in the fun, "Why don't we all do this? Whoever has vegetables they like in their garden can just pick them. We just need to let each other know so we don't think they've been stolen. What do you guys think?"

"No problem."

Wang Hongliang said nonchalantly, "Go ahead and pick them if you want. We can't eat them all. Many of the vegetables are too old, or we pick them to make dried vegetables."

If we all get together, whoever has fresh vegetables will eat them first. If we can't finish them, we'll make them into dried vegetables, and in winter, these dried vegetables will become a delicacy on our table.

So, do you agree or not?

Lin Jingyu responded, "I have no objection."

"I have no objection either."

"Okay, I agree too."

"I agree."

Everyone present agreed with the proposal.

Next.

Lin Jingyu continued to assign tasks.

Even though she was treating, it wasn't easy to cook for seven or eight people.

It's much faster when everyone works together.

Half an hour later.

Several large plates of food were served.

Stir-fried Chinese sausage with green beans, braised Chinese duck with potatoes, braised eggplant, and cucumber salad.

Before eating.

Lin Jingyu took out four large bowls and filled them with stir-fried sausage and green beans, and braised duck and potatoes, respectively.

She instructed the person who brought out the bowl and chopsticks, "Xiuying, take this dish back to your home first."

"Send it back to my house?"

Liu Xiuying was stunned.

She clearly hadn't expected Lin Jingyu to serve her family's food.

"Yes, send it back to your home."

Lin Jingyu explained, "These dishes are very generous in portion size, so we can send them back to your home for your parents and younger siblings to try our cooking."

"This, this isn't..."

Liu Xiuying felt a little embarrassed, as she felt awkward about taking leftovers home after eating there. "Sister Jingyu, it's alright. We have plenty of food at home. Just keep it for everyone."

"What's there to be embarrassed about?"

Lin Jingyu shook her head helplessly, "Never mind, I'll just deliver it to your house myself."

I packed four large bowls filled with vegetables into a shopping basket, ready to deliver them myself.

Yang Shujue, who was carrying pumpkin rice, saw her preparing to leave and asked in surprise, "Where are you going? To deliver vegetables?"

"Yes, many people in the village have helped me."

Lin Jingyu explained with a smile, "I rarely cook that many dishes normally, so I'm giving some away to everyone as a small token of my appreciation."

"I'm going too."

Peng Shiyu, who had just come out, immediately ran over and said to Lin Jingyu, "Let's go take a look."

"Okay, you'll come with me."

Lin Jingyu looked at her gently and smiled as she agreed.

The two left hand in hand. Yang Shujue's eyes flickered a few times before she turned and went back into the kitchen.

Peng Shiyu followed Lin Jingyu, looking around curiously. The environment in the remote countryside was completely different from that in the capital.

Although she had been in the village for several days, she had not come out to walk around.

I don't know many people.

Seeing Lin Jingyu greet everyone so calmly, I was filled with admiration.

She couldn't help but feel nervous and scared when others looked at her.

However, encouraged by Lin Jingyu, she still opened her mouth and responded to other people's questions in a low voice.
