Chapter 15: Senior Brothers and Sisters
Perhaps because he discovered that Chi Wan was from his own school, Professor Zhang looked at her with more joy as if she were his own junior, and agreed.
The village chief also shamelessly joined them for breakfast.
After dinner, Professor Zhang asked Chi Yuanshan whether all the fruit trees had been dealt with. After all, he felt it was a pity to see such a large orchard damaged.
Chi Wan was too embarrassed to say that his family was considering selling the orchard, so he just smiled and said, "We are already remedying the situation, don't worry, Professor."
Professor Zhang nodded and said, "Huai Jin and I are going back today. You two are destined to be brothers and sisters. Leave your contact information so that we can discuss it in the future. Little girl, if you have any questions about your orchard in the future, just ask Huai Jin. Just think of it as giving him a chance to practice."
Zhou Huaijin saw his teacher winking at him, and he didn't know what he meant. He coughed lightly and took out his phone: "Then Junior Sister, I'll add you."
Chi Yuanshan and Song Yinghe watched from the side and exchanged glances silently.
Chi Wan added Zhou Huaijin openly: "Professor, how did you know that I wanted to ask you as an external aid? When the time comes, please don't think I have too many questions~"
Professor Zhang laughed and said, "Ask as much as you want. If Huai Jin has any questions that he can't answer, it means he is not good enough in his studies. You can bring him to me to complain and I will deduct his marks."
"Teacher, you..."
Seeing Zhou Huaijin's helpless look, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Chi Yuanshan and Song Yinghe didn't expect that they would accidentally meet a professor from Chi Wan's school. Although they were not from the same department, it was still a connection after all.
And judging from the way Professor Zhang relies on Zhou Huaijin, this Zhou Huaijin must be his favorite student. The couple didn't expect to get much benefit, they just thought that knowing more people would be helpful to Chi Wan in the future.
So the family happily saw Professor Zhang and Zhou Huaijin off, which also diluted some of the bad luck that Xu Cuifen and her group had brought with them early in the morning.
Chi Wan originally wanted to go directly to the mountain to see if he could save the fruit trees, but after calling Li Xingye twice, there was no response.
Guessing that he might be busy fighting zombies, Chi Wan didn't dare to disturb Li Xingye again, for fear of distracting him and getting hurt.
So she thought about going to the city again. She had almost spent all the money she had exchanged last time. This time she wanted to exchange those small jewelry for some money and buy some more things.
Most importantly, she wanted to buy some more fragrant vines and plant them around the small house on the mountain.
Although Liu Dali and the others cannot get out for the time being, no one can say whether there will be people with bad intentions, so it is better to be more careful.
Hearing that Chi Wan was going to the city again, Chi Yuanshan said he would not let Chi Wan go alone: "I contacted the master who modified the toilet yesterday, and they will come today. Ah He, you stay at home and watch over me. I will take Wan Wan to the city."
Song Yinghe nodded. She was also worried about Chi Wan going out alone.
Chi Wan had no choice. She estimated that her parents would not let her go out alone in the short term.
When she arrived in the city, she went straight to the flower and bird market.
Chi Yuanshan was responsible for moving the potted plants into the car for her, and then she secretly put those things into the space in the car.
With someone to help him, Chi Wan simply bought various potted plants and a lot of seeds, maybe they would come in handy later.
At Chi Yuanshan's suggestion, she also bought some seeds of thorns and slope protection shrubs.
After taking a look at the space, I found that most of the supplies that were originally full in it had been cleared out, with only some fruits and vegetables that needed to be kept fresh left. Probably because they were worried that they would be difficult to preserve, they were kept in the space for future use.
After the things were moved out, the space looked much larger. Chi Wan thought about it and went to the big market again to buy a bunch of rice, flour, oil, salt and other things to store in the space.
He even bought a whole slaughtered pig, as well as various chickens, ducks, fish, etc., and stocked up dozens more boxes of purified water.
When Li Xingye looks at the space again, he will surely be very surprised.
Chi Yuanshan naturally knew that these supplies were bought for Li Xingye, so he took the initiative to pay the bill despite Chi Wan's objection.
Chi Wan guessed that Chi Yuanshan didn't want to use the money given by Li Xingye, so he took Chi Yuanshan's hand and said seriously: "Dad, Li Xingye and I have a normal transaction. It doesn't make sense for you to pay for the supplies he bought. Don't worry, I know my limits."
Chi Yuanshan couldn't persuade her, so he could only watch her go to the pawnshop again.
After all, she had just been here yesterday, so the shop owner Zhou Huaian recognized her as soon as Chi Wan entered the shop and smiled brightly: "Little girl, are you here to pawn things again?"
Chi Wan nodded and didn't say much. She just took out a pair of gold earrings and a gold necklace, and then took out a small 100g gold bar.
Zhou Huaian looked between Chi Wan and Chi Yuanshan, then picked up the items, weighed them and estimated their prices, and said casually, "These jewellery look like they are quite old, but the styles are not too old."
Chi Wan heard some tentative intentions, and just smiled and said vaguely: "It is a style designed by our old lady herself."
Zhou Huaian nodded and said nothing more.
After issuing the invoice as usual, the father and daughter walked out of the store. Chi Yuanshan couldn't help but say, "This boss..."
Chi Wan shrugged: "Maybe you think it's a bit strange that I come here to sell gold products for two consecutive days, so you just ask."
Chi Yuanshan thought for a moment and said, "Wanwan, if you want to stock up for Li Xingye, you should ask dad for money. It's not a good idea to always go to the pawn shop."
Chi Wan himself also found it a bit troublesome. After all, his family was now bankrupt and it was not convenient to exchange too much gold at one time.
But exchanging just a little bit won’t last long, so I still have to find a way, or change the channel…
Facing Chi Yuanshan's somewhat frustrated look, Chi Wan smiled and took his arm: "The supplies I stockpiled before should be enough for them to eat for a while, don't worry, Dad~ By the way, let's buy some food and go back. Mom also asked us to buy some daily necessities..."
It was almost noon when the father and daughter were walking back after buying things. Chi Wan was sitting in the passenger seat and was drowsy when Li Xingye's voice rang in his ears: "Did you look for me before? Sorry, I was dealing with something just now and didn't hear it."
Chi Wan opened his eyes: "You're back~ It's okay, I just wanted to ask if you could try to save the fruit tree. But I'm still outside and won't be back until later. Have you eaten? I stocked up some food into the space today. By the way, if you want to eat anything, you can tell me~"
"Yes, I saw it. Thank you." Li Xingye slowly walked out of the wildfire base. Behind him were brilliantly blooming flowers and corpses lying all over the place.
However, his originally cold face couldn't help but reveal a smile when he heard Chi Wan's energetic voice.
