After making plans in his mind, Jiang Yanqing brought the pharmacopoeia into the space. Now that the weather was hot, it was most comfortable to stay in the space.
After having dinner in the space and preparing some ingredients to entertain Yu Xiaoxue when she comes over tomorrow, Jiang Yanqing finally had some free time to watch some TV series.
Jiang Yanqing set the alarm in the space and had a good night's sleep. He got up early the next morning and washed himself, feeling refreshed. Then he did stretching exercises in the yard while waiting for Xiaoxue to come over.
Around eight o'clock, almost nine, Yu Xiaoxue came over with her schoolbag. Jiang Yanqing's yard was open, and she could just push the door open and come in.
Yu Xiaoxue's face was filled with smiles, and she seemed to be in a good mood. "Yanqing, I'm here." As she said that, she skipped to Jiang Yanqing's side.
Jiang Yanqing was watering the cucumbers in the vegetable garden at this time. Hearing the noise, she stopped what she was doing and responded with a smile, "Xiaoxue, sit over there for a while. I'll be done soon."
Yu Xiaoxue took off her schoolbag and put it aside. She excitedly reached out to grab the watering can from Jiang Yanqing's hand, "I'll do it, I'll do it. I'm the best at watering vegetables. I'm the one who waters all the vegetables in our house!"
The two of them argued for a while, and Jiang Yanqing couldn't get over Yu Xiaoxue. She smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I'll go cut some watermelon for you."
As he said that, he went into the kitchen and quickly brought out a plate of bright red watermelons. Each piece was of uniform size and neatly arranged. It was refreshing just by looking at it.
Yu Xiaoxue had also finished watering the watermelons and ran over happily, exclaiming, "Yan Qing, why are your watermelons so beautiful? Mine aren't even red."
Jiang Yanqing curled the corners of her mouth. This watermelon of hers was the best-looking Kirin melon from her previous life. It was a fruit produced after countless seed improvements. Whether in taste or appearance, it was definitely impeccable.
In this era, most watermelons are grown by farmers themselves, who breed them themselves and plant them again the next year. They are okay to eat themselves, but most of them are not very marketable.
The span of time here is incomparable. Jiang Yanqing didn't say much, just smiled and asked Yu Xiaoxue to eat more.
After they finished a plate of watermelon together, Yu Xiaoxue sighed contentedly and said, "Yan Qing, the air in your house smells better than mine. My mom forces me to read every day, and I'm almost becoming a fool."
Jiang Yanqing asked back, "Then do you want to be like me, a person without any worries?"
Yu Xiaoxue's relaxed expression suddenly changed, and she said cautiously, "Yan Qing, I didn't mean that. I didn't do it on purpose. I..."
Jiang Yanqing waved her hand and patted Yu Xiaoxue's shoulder. "It's okay, Xiaoxue. My parents have been gone for so long, I've let it go a long time ago. They must want me to be well over there. I'm not sad."
Yu Xiaoxue's face finally put on a smile again. She took Jiang Yanqing for a walk in the yard, and then they went into the house to read together.
Jiang Yanqing mainly circled the knowledge points that he thought would be tested, and then explained to Yu Xiaoxue the parts that she didn't quite understand. In one morning, they had covered half of the knowledge points.
At noon, the two of them had lunch. Jiang Yanqing steamed half a pot of rice, fried some three fresh vegetables, and braised chicken pieces, with potatoes as a side dish.
Yu Xiaoxue took a bite of the potato and immediately praised with sparkling eyes, "Yan Qing, your cooking is so delicious. If anyone could eat your cooking every day, they would be so blessed."
Jiang Yanqing was also helpless. Like coaxing a child, she put another piece of chicken leg into Yu Xiaoxue's bowl and said, "If it tastes good, eat more. We can meet often in the future when we have time."
Yu Xiaoxue nodded while chewing the food in her mouth, looking as cute as a happy little squirrel.
After dinner, the two took a nap at noon, then read for a while. Yu Xiaoxue's brother came to pick her up, holding a bag of dried fish, which he handed to Jiang Yanqing.
"Sorry to bother you today. This fish is pickled by our family. I'll give you some to try."
Jiang Yanqing didn't say anything polite. This was how relationships worked, and there was no need to be overly calculating. However, she still replied politely, "Xiaoxue and I are good friends, so it's not a big deal. I'm really enjoying this delicious meal again."
Yu Xiaoxue's brother smiled, revealing the same dimples as Yu Xiaoxue.
After everyone left, Jiang Yanqing finally breathed a sigh of relief. Yu Xiaoxue was too lively and energetic all day long. I wonder what kind of boy she would find to play with her in the future?
Thinking of this, a handsome face inexplicably flashed through Jiang Yanqing's mind. Perhaps, she should also find a companion, so that she can have someone to share her joys and sorrows in this strange world.
In the evening, Jiang Yanqing made fried rice with the leftover rice. After eating and drinking her fill, she went back into the space and had a good sleep.
