Chapter 297: The Human Heart is Hard to Predict



Looking at that interesting scene, Zhou Qi, Shen Qiu and Lin Xi looked at each other, and the three of them laughed softly in succession.

Shen Yao looks so cute with that well-behaved look!

In their eyes, Yaoyao is graceful and efficient, and she looks like a heroine.

But what they saw now was Shen Yao, who was cute and a little playful, like a good baby.

Frankly speaking, Yaoyao looks much cuter and more lively now than the previous Shen Yao who was always serious whether she was talking or doing things.

Shen Yao followed Zheng Chengdong all the way back to the yard.

Seeing the other person looking at her, Shen Yao smiled at him faintly and immediately retracted her right hand that was stretched out to grab the basket.

"Go inside and stay here. The temperature outside is very high, so you don't need to take a shower." Zheng Chengdong glanced at the chair in the main room and whispered to the person in front of him.

"Oh!" Shen Yao nodded in response, her eyes smiling, and she said happily, "Thank you for your hard work, Fourth Brother. I'll go in and make some tea. When you finish washing the fruit, you can come in and drink it."

Zheng Chengdong nodded, and waited until Shen Yao entered the room before he turned around and said a few words to Shen Qiu and Lin Xi.

Let them put the basket on the stone table for washing vegetables, and they don't need to worry about the rest.

"Tsk tsk, this Fourth Brother Zheng is so kind. He knows that the sun is very hot now, so he would rather wash the wild fruits and vegetables in the yard in the high temperature than let us girls do it."

Looking at Zheng Chengdong standing at the stone platform, putting the things in the basket into the enamel basin one by one, Shen Qiu couldn't help but sigh.

Then she glanced at Zhou Qi, winked at her and smiled widely.

Listening to Shen Qiu's jokes, Shen Yao smiled silently and called out, "Sister Qiu, come over and have some tea and rest for a while. After you've rested, we'll make chicken stewed with mushrooms."

The pheasant is served with freshly picked mushrooms. After being cooked, it is fragrant and refreshing, and the taste is simply amazing.

When we come back to the village, we can choose not to do other things, but we must not miss things like catching cicada monkeys and looking for wild game in the mountains.

The three people responded, walked into the main room and sat down around the table.

The four sisters drank tea and rested for half an hour. After Zheng Chengdong cleaned up all the prey, they got up and went to the kitchen to make lunch.

Shen Yao put three pheasants, some fresh mushrooms and wild fruits in a large basket and handed it to Shen Qiu, asking her to take it back and let the aunt distribute it.

At noon, the five of them had a delicious meal of game.

After lunch, several people sat in the main room to drink tea and rest.

During this period, Xu Dani came over with her two daughters-in-law, but the three of them didn't stay for long before going to work in the fields.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Jun Qi rushed back from Jiang City.

He asked Zheng Chengdong about Shen Yao's whereabouts and learned that she was tidying up the vegetable garden in the backyard, so he strode towards the backyard.

Jun Qi reported the matter to her. Thinking of Qian Hongfei's request, he paused and said to Shen Yao, "Madam, the matter has been settled. However, Qian Hongfei hopes that he can meet with you when he goes to Hai City to pick up the goods next time."

He went to Jiang City in the morning and did not tell Qian Hongfei that Shen Yao had already returned to An County.

So after the other party learned about their next plan, he readily agreed.

But Qian Hongfei's only request was to meet and talk with his mistress.

Shen Yao pondered for a while and said, "Okay, when he comes to Hai City next time, you can take him directly to the villa."

Since both parties have reached a consensus, from now on, Qian Hongfei is one of us.

In order for both parties to have better communication and interaction in the future, it was naturally necessary for her to show sincerity and receive Qian Hongfei with her true face.

She had disguised herself before because she just wanted to conduct the simplest transaction with people in the black market.

But now it is different. Jun Qi’s biggest mission in coming to An County this time is to recruit Qian Hongfei, a capable general, and let him join the Moyao Group and become a member of them.

With the addition of Qian Hongfei, he will be able to take full responsibility for domestic affairs, which can be regarded as laying a solid foundation for future development in the country.

Jun Qi nodded, and then he told Shen Yao about what he had seen and heard in Jiang City.

Hearing this, Shen Yao's eyes flashed with understanding. She gave Jun Qi a few instructions and then let him go back to the main room to rest.

The afternoon passed quickly, and by the time Shen Yao and Lin Xi had finished weeding the vegetable garden, it was time to make dinner.

Around seven o'clock in the evening, six people walked towards the cornfield in the village.

Two people formed a team, one holding a basket and the other holding a flashlight. They shone the light on the corn stalks, and golden cicadas instantly appeared before everyone's eyes.

A group of six people caught two basins full of cicada monkeys. After returning home, they washed them with salt water and pickled them in basins.

Shen Yao asked Zheng Chengdong to bring a pot of cicada monkeys to Xu Dani's house. One pot was enough for the six of them, so it would be just right to share one pot.

After Zheng Chengdong and Jun Qi walked out of the yard, Shen Yao locked the gate, and then the four of them washed up and went back to their room to rest.

The group spent more than ten days happily in Shenjia Village.

During this period, Shen Yao took some time to visit An County and Jiang City. Seeing that the two houses were still the same as before, she couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

The keys to the two houses are in Xu Dani's hands. Every month, she would take one day off and ask Brother Shen to take her to the city to clean.

Therefore, when Shen Yao went into the city and looked at the house, there was not much dust inside or outside.

Moreover, these two houses are well protected by Xu Dani and are in great condition, which shows that she is really attentive.

That morning, Shen Yao drove with Shen Qiu to An County to meet her two good sisters Zhou Lingling and Xue Xiaoxue.

The four of them naturally had a lot to talk about when they got together, and they chatted for a few hours in the house on South Road. At noon, the four good sisters went to the state-owned hotel for lunch before separating.

Looking at Xue Xiaoxue being taken away, Shen Qiu's eyes were filled with confusion.

She looked at the people around her, hesitated for a while, and finally asked the question that was in her heart.

"Yaoyao, do you feel that Xiaoxue seems to have changed a little now that she's dating someone?"

Shen Yao raised his eyes and looked at her, and said thoughtfully, "As a person's knowledge becomes broader, his ideas will naturally become more diverse. Besides, everyone has a different path to take. For some things, it's better to let it go naturally. We don't need to force it."

When Xue Xiaoxue's boyfriend came to the hotel, when Xiaoxue introduced the three sisters to him, his response was obviously perfunctory.

There was also a hint of impatience and contempt in his eyes. Although it was very subtle and was hidden very well by the other party, she still saw it clearly.

I think the changes that happened to Xue Xiaoxue are related to that person.

After all, from the letter written by Xue Xiaoxue during their last correspondence, it could be seen that she was still the little girl who could talk to them about anything and their feelings were as good as before.
