All the chestnuts he brought back were placed in Sheng Zhiyi's room. He said it would be convenient for him to dry them in the sun.
When Wang Fang and Jiang Bei returned to the courtyard after work, they saw four large backpacks filled with chestnuts on the floor of Sheng Zhiyi's room.
Wang Fang and Jiang Bei and others looked at it with amazement and envy.
Jiang Bei looked at Sheng Zhiyi with interest and couldn't help asking curiously, "Sheng Zhiqing, where did you go to pick chestnuts? You picked up so many in just one afternoon?"
Sheng Zhiyi glanced at Liu Wenzhe from the corner of his eye, then his brows relaxed and he spoke sweetly, "I didn't pick them up by myself. My girlfriend and I picked them up together in the mountains. She took me there, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed there were chestnut trees there."
Jiang Bei's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this. This was another big news. He quickly asked, "Sheng Zhiqing, are you dating? Who is it? Is it a girl from our village? Or one of the female educated youth who came to the countryside?"
When Liu Wenzhe heard Sheng Zhiyi's words, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
His brows were furrowed, and his expression became gloomy and ugly.
Sheng Zhiyi's gaze slowly swept over the crowd, a brilliant smile bloomed on his face, and his lips curved into a happy arc, like the rising sun, warm and bright.
He slowly walked to Mu Yunxi's side, took her right hand, and spoke softly with a subtle hint of doting: "You all know this person, Yunxi. We officially started dating yesterday."
Jiang Bei was shocked when he heard this. "No way, we're all living under the same roof, how come I didn't notice anything before? You guys are really good at hiding this!"
Wang Fang's reaction was exactly the opposite of Jiang Bei's. She looked as if it was expected and didn't seem surprised at all.
Because she had long noticed the look in Sheng Zhiyi's eyes when he looked at Mu Yunxi, the uncontrollable love in his eyes seemed to be about to overflow from his eye sockets.
And the look in Mu Yunxi's eyes when she looked at Sheng Zhiyi didn't seem so innocent either, so she didn't find it strange at all that the two of them could be together.
She looked at Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi with a smile: "Congratulations! You two are such a perfect match!!!"
Jiang Kai and Wan Hao also spoke one after another to bless Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi.
Only Liu Wen Ze had a face as gloomy as a dark cloud, looking extremely ugly.
Listening to other people's extremely harsh blessings for Mu Yunxi and Sheng Zhiyi, it was as if a number of extremely sharp knives were piercing his heart without reservation, making him feel excruciating pain.
He forced himself to suppress the extreme sadness and grief in his heart, not allowing himself to do anything disgraceful. He gritted his teeth and said, "I feel a little uncomfortable. I'll go back to my room first."
He felt the sky suddenly become dark, and even breathing was a little painful. He didn't want Mu Yunxi to see him in such a miserable state, so he staggered back to his room.
After closing the door, he stumbled and fell headfirst onto the bed. The extreme pain made him want to escape.
The people in the yard all looked at Mu Yunxi...
Mu Yunxi remained calm, her clear eyes scanning the few people calmly, her red lips slightly raised: "Why are you looking at me?"
Wang Fang and Jiang Bei waved their hands at the same time. Jiang Bei hurriedly explained, "No, no, I just suddenly remembered that it's time for dinner and I should go back to cook. I won't chat with you guys anymore today. You guys continue!"
After Jiang Bei finished speaking, he left quickly.
Seeing Jiang Bei running so fast, Wang Fang also quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, I have to go cook too, you guys chat...you guys chat!!"
In a blink of an eye, everyone in the courtyard dispersed, leaving only Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi still standing there.
"Xixi, why don't you go to your room and rest for a while? I'll make dinner. I'll call you when it's ready."
Mu Yunxi turned her head and saw his superior jawline. "No need. You have one stove, and it takes too long to steam rice and cook dishes at the same time. How about this? We can divide the work. You can use your stove to steam rice, and I'll use mine to cook two dishes. We'll eat together later."
"Don't bother with that, Xixi. I'll move my stove over and put it next to yours. I can steam rice and cook at the same time."
"I can handle it by myself. You should go back to your room and rest for a while. You must be exhausted after running up the mountain twice."
Sheng Zhiyi didn't want his partner to work so hard. It was just cooking, he could do it easily!
