Chapter 297 Summer Fireflies



Although Li Mengxue's courtyard looks shabby, it is an old house after all. It is made of good wood and bricks. After cleaning, it will soon look presentable.

The seven people in the lunch team, together with Gao Yinghua who came over later, were sitting on the steps in front of the porch. While they were resting, they were also busy picking vegetables.

"It's a good thing you're here, otherwise I don't know how long I would have to finish cleaning by myself," Li Mengxue said happily.

"I'll buy you some furniture later so you can live more comfortably," Gao Yinghua said after looking at it.

"We need to get some furniture. It's really embarrassing to ask you to sit on the floor every time," said Li Mengxue.

"It's cool to sit on the steps at the door!" Yi Qingqing didn't dislike it at all. Sitting on the ground was comfortable.

"If you ask me, you should stay here tonight. I don't have anything else, but I have prepared mats and bedding. You can sleep on the floor. Tomorrow is Comrade Yun's birthday, so it's a good time to continue celebrating. Otherwise, if you go back tonight, you will have to come again tomorrow. It will be so difficult to escape!"

Li Mengxue plans to stay here tonight, and she really wants to stay with her friends.

Yi Qingqing shook her head firmly: "No, come back tomorrow. We're all smelly after a day's work. We're going to the bathhouse to take a shower and change clothes tonight!"

Tomorrow is Ayuan's birthday, how can she be covered in dust and sweat?

"Ah? You guys are going to the bathhouse tonight!" Li Mengxue tugged at her sweaty clothes, "I also want to take a good bath!"

"Let's go together. Let's go back to the dormitory tonight and come together tomorrow. By the way, didn't you say you wanted to see fireflies too? It's a sunny day today, we can go see them on the way back after dinner."

Yi Qingqing recalled the swarm of fireflies she saw last Sunday and missed them so much that if she didn't take advantage of the summer to see them more often, they would be gone soon.

The fireflies are very attractive to Li Mengxue. Her friends are all going today, and it would be a shame to miss her. Besides, Ying Hua finally has some free time this afternoon, so it would be so romantic to go watch the fireflies together!

"Well, I won't stay here today."

After saying that, Li Mengxue suddenly felt something was wrong: "It was me who let you stay here, how come you guys took me back to school?"

"That's a question for you," Yi Qingqing gathered the dishes that everyone had chosen together, "We need to prepare dinner quickly, so we can finish eating early and go watch the fireflies early. Let's hurry up!"

"Hey! I'll go wash the vegetables." Li Mengxue became excited when she heard about eating.

As soon as the food was put into the pot, Yi Qingqing started dancing with the big spoon. Soon the aroma came out. Yun Guyuan stood by and handed her the oil, salt and seasoning jars.

Then Yi Qingqing felt the surroundings getting dark. She looked up and saw that Li Mengxue and the others had all come over and surrounded the kitchen window and the stoves on both sides.

She also saw her friends swallowing their saliva quietly.

She knocked on the spatula and said, "You guys are blocking the light. Be careful, I can't see clearly. If I shake too much salt, I'll choke you!"

The others then dispersed a little, but their attention was still all on the pot.

Qian Lailai sniffed and said, "I feel comfortable just by smelling this!"

"Qingqing, I wish I were a gay. I would definitely marry you!" Every time Li Mengxue saw Yi Qingqing holding a spatula, she felt that she was more charming than any handsome guy.

Yun Guyuan glanced at her and said, "You can't marry her!"

"Hahaha, Mengxue, you should be glad that you are a lesbian, otherwise you would not even be able to be sisters, and you would not be able to enjoy Qingqing's cooking!" Qian Lailai said with a smile.

Gao Yinghua silently glanced at his girlfriend, blaming him for not being a good enough cook for not being able to satisfy his girlfriend's stomach!

There was only an old table in the room and no chairs. When the food was ready, it had to be placed on the table and everyone ate while standing.

However, even eating while standing does not affect the enthusiasm of their eating team.

It really takes several hours to cook and ten minutes to eat, so it doesn’t take long before the meal is almost finished.

In a hurry to go back to see the fireflies, everyone washed the dishes and went back to school after eating.

On the path leading to Minghe Garden, four couples were holding hands and walking forward in the dark.

"It's pitch black here, there must be no snakes!" Li Mengxue was a little scared.

I didn't expect that Yi Qingqing and Yun Guyuan looked shy and reserved when they were dating, but they would choose such a dark place for a date. This is the power of love!

"It's a good thing we caught a snake. We'll make snake soup tomorrow. It's delicious and nourishing." Yi Qingqing consoled him, "Snakes are full of treasures! How can you be afraid of treasures?"

Li Mengxue, Qian Lailai and Wang Lingling all shuddered: "You actually eat snakes? That's terrible!"

"Snakes are really delicious. When we were in the village, Ayuan and I would search the woodshed every winter. If we were lucky, we would find a hibernating snake. The taste was so good!"

Yi Qingqing couldn't help swallowing her saliva as she spoke. Alas, what a pity, now she can't eat snake.

Li Mengxue regretted it. She shouldn’t have come back today. Why did she come back to listen to Yi Qingqing’s scary words?

"Got it!" Yi Qingqing pointed to the front and called out to her friends to look.

"What's that?" Li Mengxue thought it was a snake. She lost her voice and looked up tremblingly. "Oh my God!"

There are fireflies everywhere around the small pond in front, it's so beautiful!

Everyone in the group was fascinated by the show.

"In this situation, I thought of a new group name: Firefly Squad. What do you think? This will be our summer firefly secret base from now on!"

Li Mengxue said excitedly.

Yi Qingqing has become a Buddhist, and Li Mengxue changed the name of the group faster than she changed her clothes!

I named it as soon as I was happy. It's very good that I waited until now to get interested in it.

Gao Yinghua seemed to be meeting his partner for the first time, "New group name? Did they have many group names before?"

"That's too many, so many that I can't count them with both hands!" Yi Qingqing complained.

"Who said that? We can clearly count them. Our first group was called the Reed Team." Li Mengxue counted on one finger: "Then it was... was..."

I said "yes" for a long time, but I couldn't figure out the reason.

"Qingqing, you have a good memory. What's the name of the one behind it?"

"Don't ask me, I forgot!" Yi Qingqing shook her head repeatedly. Her memory was not good at that time, and she had forgotten all the messy names long ago. Even if she remembered, she didn't want to recall them.

But this matter cannot be forgotten just because she doesn't want to recall it.

Qian Lailai and Wang Lingling participated in Li Mengxue's recollection activity with great interest. The name of the once dead began to attack Yi Qingqing's ears again.
