Chapter 173 Too Much Money to Burn
Saturday came quickly, and Shen Yan did not go to Qingning Mountain on Saturday. The reason was simple: he was afraid of getting tanned.
That’s right, those colleagues who ride electric bikes to work every day have begun to turn from pink to red under the ravages of the sun, and are also faintly turning towards black.
However, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan, who had little exposure to sunlight, still maintained a slightly pink complexion, in stark contrast to the group of people who were either red or black.
Others envied their pink skin, but Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan found it weird. It took them a long time to finally accept it and protect their skin. After all, they preferred the pink guy to the black guy.
Although Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan both felt that they could regain their fair skin as long as they had energy rain, it was impossible that they were the only ones who could suddenly regain their fair skin among a bunch of people who had changed colors. Besides, who else would dare to take out the energy rain to waste?
So, they waited until the sun went down before Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan took their small baskets and went to their own fields. When they got there, they found that many people had not returned yet, and a group of people were milling around the barbed wire.
These people were very happy to see their own barbed wire fences, but there was still a small group of people who did not sign up to install the barbed wire fences and did not get land in Qingning Mountain. They looked at the barbed wire fences with a sour feeling in their hearts, "It's really a waste of money. What's so precious about a piece of broken land?"
Bi Qiaoan laughed after hearing this and whispered in Shen Yanming's ear: "How many owners in Qingyu Community are short of money? There are really people who are jealous wherever you go."
Shen Yanming shook his head. "They are jealous of just a barbed wire fence. By the second half of the year, they will definitely rob it openly!"
When Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan walked to their own field, they found a big lock hanging on their barbed wire gate. Bi Qiaoan went up to take a look. It was new!
Shen Yanming smiled and pulled Bi Qiaoan, “I guess Chen Shunwei helped.”
The two men walked through the crowd and entered the shack. When Chen Shunwei saw them coming, he quickly took out a bunch of keys from the drawer and handed them to Shen Yanming.
"By the way, I bought you a lock. It's the same brand as our security team's. I heard this kind of lock is safer."
Shen Yanming nodded and put the key in his pocket, "Thank you for troubling me during this time!"
"No, no, it was all just by chance." Chen Shunwei waved his hands, not daring to take credit for it.
Shen Yanming took out a bag of dried strawberries from Bi Qiaoan's bag and gave it to Chen Shunwei. "We have a lot of strawberries this year. Take them back and give them to the children to sweeten their mouths!"
Chen Shunwei looked at the dried strawberries and hesitated. He struggled for a while before speaking. "The strawberry seedlings you gave me last year died during the dry season. My daughter cried for several days. Can I use this bag of dried strawberries to exchange for a strawberry seedling?"
Shen Yanming smiled and stuffed the dried strawberries directly into Chen Shunwei's hands. "No need to change. I'll dig a few for you when I get back. By the way, we also have some fruit seeds. Do you want them?"
"Yes, yes, yes. We haven't eaten fruit in the past six months and have been craving for it. Now it's good. We can grow some fruit in the fields in the future."
Chen Shunwei didn't expect such an unexpected gain, and nodded happily. After Shen Yanming gave Chen Shunwei a red envelope to pay for the barbed wire and the big lock, he left with Bi Qiaoan.
After returning home, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan entered the space, dug two strawberry seedlings, broke off a fig branch, cut two dragon fruit branches, then took a small paper bag, put a handful of watermelon seeds in it, and put some hawthorn, apple, and lemon seeds.
In fact, there are many varieties of fruits in the space, but Shen Yanming cannot take them out to arouse others' jealousy. The ones he chose are all common and have been grown at home with a proven track record.
Shen Yanming thought very clearly. Although it seemed that he did not give Chen Shunwei much, these kinds of fruits were super easy to reproduce. As long as they were well taken care of, it wouldn't be long before the entire security team would be able to eat fruits.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan put the fruit branches and seeds for Chen Shunwei into paper bags and put them in the storage area.
Then, the two took a good bath in the mobile villa and left the space.
One night of passion, hehehe!
The next morning, Bi Qiaoan was woken up by the ringing of the phone before she even got out of bed. She closed her eyes and fumbled around but couldn't find her phone.
When Bi Qiaoan opened her eyes, she found that Shen Yanming was holding a ringing cell phone in his hand, looking at her with a very proud smile.
Bi Qiaoan glared at Shen Yanming, then directly clicked to answer the call and turned on the speakerphone.
"Hey, sister, I'm at the gate of your community. Can you come out for a moment?" Sister Liu's guilty voice came.
Bi Qiaoan pouted unhappily, "Big sister, didn't we agree to deliver the goods when the sun sets?"
"Well, I have something to do today, so I can't come over in the evening. Sister, the sun isn't very strong right now..."
Bi Qiaoan sighed, "I haven't gotten up yet. Big sister, please go to the security room and sit down. I'll change my clothes and go out."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you here!"
After hanging up the phone, Bi Qiaoan collapsed on the bed. "Why is she so energetic? It's only 7:30. What time does she have to get up?"
After hearing this, Shen Yanming didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because 7:30 was not early. Before he was with Bi Qiaoan, he got up at 6 o'clock every day. It was only after he had this little goblin at home, a little goblin who loved to stay in bed and sleep late, that his biological clock changed.
Well, this change is to stay in bed with the little goblin!
"Okay, now that everyone is here, we can rest assured after we get the little chicken back. Otherwise, why don't you sleep for a while while I go find Sister Liu by myself?"
Bi Qiaoan hesitated for a moment, "I was woken up and couldn't sleep. I don't want to stay at home alone."
Shen Yanming knew this would happen, so he carried Bi Qiaoan to the bathroom. After washing his face, Shen Yanming was forced by Bi Qiaoan to apply a layer of useless sunscreen.
Shen Yanming looked unhappy, but Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "It may not be useless, maybe we just don't know it."
Then, the two returned to the bedroom to change clothes. Without discussing, they put on short-sleeved shirts and long pants, which had become the standard attire during this period.
Before going out, Shen Yanming put on a long gauze sun-protection coat for Bi Qiaoan, a fashionable wide-brimmed sun-protection straw hat for Bi Qiaoan, and also put on sunglasses and a veil for Bi Qiaoan.
Hahaha, she is really covered up so tightly that you can’t recognize her unless she opens her mouth!
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan went to the garage and got in the car. Even though the journey was only a few minutes, they tried to avoid exposure to sunlight as much as possible.
After leaving the community and finding Sister Liu, Bi Qiaoan finally understood why Sister Liu was not afraid of getting tanned.
Because she is already dark enough!
