Chapter 395 Free Meal



Sanbao was thinking, maybe he was wrong before.

Mom just took out something that was placed somewhere else, but he mistakenly thought it would appear out of thin air.

He was indeed too young and not smart enough, so he got things wrong.

In the kitchen, An Hongdou had already chopped the bones.

Chen Xiangzhi poked the stove with great foresight and asked her, "Wife, what are you going to do?"

"Stew the soup." An Hongdou deftly added water to the pot, preparing to boil out the blood foam and wash it before stewing it.

Chen Xiangzhi just wanted to find something to talk about, so he tried to probe: "The stew is too bland, why don't we braise it, cook a pot of rice, and stir-fry some hot and sour cabbage, the children will like it too."

An Hongdou nodded, put the lid on the pot, and said, "Okay, then you do it, I'll go play with the kids."

Shen Xiangzhi is more talented at cooking than her. The same thing tastes better when he cooks it.

After An Hongdou walked out, Shen Xiangzhi looked at the ribs in the basin, feeling quite helpless.

During the meal, she was still the same, smiling at the children, and although her tone towards him was a little harsh, she did not ignore him.

But Shen Xiangzhi always felt that something was wrong with her.

In September, Shen Xiangzhi was rated as an associate professor thanks to his excellence and qualifications.

At the same time, what An Hongdou was exposed to was not just knowledge from books.

Not too far from Jiang University, there is a large experimental field belonging to the College of Agriculture. An Hongdou was assigned to Professor Wang's group. There were a total of 7 people in the group, led by the professor. In addition to the subject knowledge in the books, most of the time was spent in this experimental field.

Professor Wang is good at fruit tree grafting and has been conducting experiments in this area.

An Hongdou has special abilities that allow her to easily change the genes of fruit trees without using grafting.

But her ability is not known to outsiders.

This is also the main reason why An Hongdou chose agronomy.

Since she has abilities, she needs knowledge to cover up her abilities that are different from others.

Busy times always pass the fastest. Chen Xiangzhi was not idle either. Zhao Xiaoyue was busy with her pregnancy. Fortunately, the primary school was not far from home, so the children could go home by themselves after school.

Sometimes, when An Hongdou and Shen Xiangzhi came home late, An Changyue had already prepared dinner for them.

The relationship between An Hongdou and Shen Xiangzhi has always been lukewarm.

It can't be said that they quarreled or had a cold war. There was normal communication between the two of them, but the way they got along was more like a cooperative relationship rather than a normal couple with feelings for each other.

By the end of the year, the policy of reform and opening up was fully implemented, and the first to benefit was the rural areas.

In February of the following year, Mrs. An called and said that the country was going to distribute land to them. She was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

Moreover, as early as last winter, electricity was installed in the village, solving the problem of lack of electricity.

Spring is the best time for fruit trees to grow, and An Hongdou also devoted himself to the experimental field with the professor, and his schedule became even more tight.

I only go to school when I have classes, and because of the different subjects, I have even fewer chances to run into Shen Xiangzhi.

Fortunately, they all have to go home at night.

Professor Wang, who leads An Hongdou's group, is an old man in his 60s. Despite his age, he is very energetic.

On the last day of the semester, the seven of them were busy in the experimental field when they heard Professor Wang ask them, "Are there any of you who want to stay and earn some pocket money during the summer vacation?"

Among their group of 7 students, except An Hongdou who lives in Jiangcheng, the others are from other places.

Some families have better conditions, while others have worse ones.

After hearing Professor Wang's question, Zheng Yun, who had done the previous work, suddenly thought, "Professor, how do I make pocket money?"

"You all have a holiday tomorrow, and we can't abandon our experimental field. If anyone is willing to stay and has enough time, you can come to me to sign up and use your summer vacation to take care of the experimental field. The school will give you a corresponding subsidy."

In fact, many people are willing to do this kind of work.

After all, if you stay, you can continue to learn relevant knowledge from the professor. On the other hand, the school will provide subsidies, so you can kill two birds with one stone.

However, An Hongdou was not among these three people, which was somewhat beyond Professor Wang's expectations.

Professor Wang knew An Hongdou's situation, so he asked her, "Hongdou, isn't your family in Jiangcheng? What's going on? Do you have plans for the summer vacation?"

An Hongdou nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, there is something going on. I'm sorry, professor and classmates, we will see you next semester."

An Hongdou is already 24 years old, but her skin is in very good condition. With her face tied in a ponytail, she doesn’t look that old at all. Instead, she looks like a little girl.

Only in the way she speaks and acts can it be seen that she is indeed a mature woman.

"It's hard to get a holiday, so you can take advantage of it to rest more." Professor Wang is not a particularly rigid old man. He understands students' expectations for the holiday. "Let's put it this way. We have been together for quite a while. Now that the holiday is coming, we won't see each other for a long time. Tomorrow night, the teacher will invite you to have dinner at home. It can be regarded as an encouragement to you."

Almost all of them have been to Professor Wang's home. The old couple lives alone, and they are happy to help if there is anything they need.

In fact, An Hongdou was planning to invite An Maixiang, Ergouzi and others to have dinner together tomorrow. After all, it was holiday time and An Maixiang would go back too. If nothing unexpected happened, An Changyue should go with him.

However, no one else objected to Professor Wang's invitation, and she didn't want to spoil the fun, so she could only think about postponing her family's dinner for a day.

The elementary school holiday time was earlier, and because An Hongdou had promised Professor Wang to have dinner at his home in the evening, she sent the three children to Grandpa Su's house in the afternoon.

After talking with the old man for a while, Grandpa Su asked her some questions about her studies, and An Hongdou answered them one by one.

When he returned to his home from Su's house, Shen Xiangzhi also happened to be home.

When he saw her coming back alone, he asked, "Where are the children?"

"Professor Wang asked us students to have dinner at his house in the evening, so I sent Dabao and the others to their grandmother's place." An Hongdou thought that Chen Xiangzhi had been very busy these days and would not be back so early. An Changyue also had to say goodbye to her classmates before the holiday.

Unexpectedly, he came back early today.

"You eat dinner by yourself. I'm going to the professor first. If I go early, I can help my mistress with cooking." An Hongdou said, picked up the tea that had been prepared long ago from the table, turned around and wanted to go out.

When passing by him, Shen Xiangzhi pursed his lips, took her arm, and said in a warm tone with a hint of flattery, "Professor Wang and I also know each other, wife, you see I am very pitiful being alone at home, take me to have a meal together?"
