After a few days, the first batch of wheat seedlings formed ears. Xu Xingchen made seeds from the wheat ears, but it was not convenient for the villagers to go directly to her house to get the seeds.
She thought about it and decided to build a shed in the open space in front of her house to distribute the wheat.
She called Zhou Xiaoniang and three others to help. Zhou Xiaoniang's husband Shuanzi carried the long wooden planks for building the greenhouse by himself and walked steadily.
With his muscular body exposed, he was wearing a thin shirt in the middle of winter, which shocked Xu Xingchen.
Shuanzi came back carrying another long piece of wood. Zhou Xiaoniang felt a little distressed and went forward to wipe his sweat with a handkerchief. Shuanzi took the handkerchief and wiped his face casually, then said to Xu Xingchen in a loud voice: "Sister Xu, I brought all four."
But Xu Xingchen did not respond to him. She was pressing hay with two other people. To press the hay, they used hemp ropes to thread it through the hay to serve as the roof of the greenhouse.
Seeing no response, Shuanzi came to Xu Xingchen again and stretched out his hand to help her press hay.
A person suddenly appeared beside her and scared her. "Ah, Shuanzi, you scared me."
"Hey, I got the four pillars."
Xu Xingchen gave him a thumbs-up as if he was coaxing a primary school student, and then said to Zhou Xiaoniang, "Mrs. Zhou Xiaoniang is so lucky to have Shuanzi so capable."
Zhou Xiaoniang was pouring wheat ears into the bamboo basket. When she heard this, she smiled shyly and spat at her, "He has only strength but no brains."
Shuanzi smiled innocently without any anger, and Xu Xingchen teased him a few more times before bursting into laughter. The whole scene was filled with joy.
Jun Haoyue rolled up his sleeves and moved a table out of the inner room, and saw Xu Xingchen smiling happily at Shuanzi.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes. He had never seen Xu Xingchen so happy. Every time he saw him, he was either trembling with fear or trying to please him shamelessly.
"Bang—"
A few people were startled by the loud noise and looked towards the source. Jun Haoyue stood there somewhat bewilderedly, holding up his hand. "My hand slipped and the table fell over."
Xu Xingchen put down the hay in his hand, pouted and walked forward to move the other side of the table, "I'll help you move it."
Jun Haoyue's mouth corners curled up secretly, and his gentle face became even more handsome, but Xu Xingchen didn't look at him. She weighed the table and couldn't help muttering.
"This table is not heavy. Alas, I don't know why women like pretty boys. If it were me, I would find someone like Shuanzi, who is honest and strong, and good at..." bullying.
Before she could finish her words, her hand lightened and Jun Haoyue walked in front of her with a cold face, carrying a table.
Xu Xingchen's hands were still moving the table, with a confused look on his face.
With everyone's cooperation, the greenhouse was built in one morning. In the afternoon, Xu Xingchen distributed the wheat ears to Zhou Xiaoniang and the other two, and reminded them of some points to pay attention to.
After finishing the work, it was already dark. Xu Xingchen pounded his shoulders, turned and walked into the house, lifted the curtain and met someone's eyes.
The owner of the eyes also saw her, turned around and walked towards his bamboo house. Xu Xingchen had three question marks above his head.
Did this person have a stomachache? That's weird.
At night, Xu Xingchen lay in bed and opened the system backpack again. He counted the two bottles of nutrient solution left and felt a little painful.
In order to promote the formation of ears of wheat seedlings, she increased the concentration of the nutrient solution in recent days, which made the nutrient solution used faster.
"Beep beep—" the light computer beside my ear rang rapidly.
Xu Xingchen saw the name of the caller through his sea of consciousness and suddenly sat up. It was a voice request from the icy-faced leader!
She rubbed her face and signaled herself to calm down. It was normal for a leader to communicate with his subordinates.
When she was mentally prepared and clicked to answer, a deep, rich, and magnetic voice came clearly from the computer: "Why did you take so long?"
"Uh...I, I just heard it."
"...The optical brain is connected to your sea of consciousness." If it's directly connected, you don't need to use your ears to listen.
Xu Xingchen twitched his lips. "Master, I was wrong! It was because of your sudden call, you who are so wise and powerful, that I felt extremely panicked and nervous."
"Okay, stop being so joking. I sent you to this planet on a mission. Don't flirt with the people on this planet, especially married men."
“???”
Leader, what do you mean by flirting?
And what the hell is a married man?
Leader, do you know what you are talking about?
Xu Xingchen asked herself three questions in her mind, but she dared not ask them out loud. If she asked them out loud, her icy-faced leader would probably lecture her all night long, and she would not be able to sleep.
Xu Xingchen replied timidly: "Got it."
Then the other party hung up, leaving Xu Xingchen disheveled in the wind. What did the icy-faced man say on the phone?
Xu Xingchen felt that the man with the iceberg face would not say such a nonsensical thing. Thinking that his first sentence was about the mission, she decided to take a look at the second batch of wheat seedlings.
Walking to the backyard, Jun Haoyue was looking up at the sky.
Xu Xingchen exhaled a cloud of white mist, and instead of going forward to say hello, he looked up at the sky like him.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, what is there to see?
Xu Xingchen retracted his head and decided to go directly to the laboratory without disturbing the person who was admiring the moon.
"Why, you haven't slept yet?" Jun Haoyue discovered her existence, or rather knew it from the beginning.
"Ah...ah, well, I can't sleep."
When Xu Xingchen came out, she only wore a piece of clothing loosely over her pajamas, revealing her white neck. Jun Haoyue looked at her collar with his eyes flashing, then reached out his hand.
When Xu Xingchen saw a hand reaching out, he reflexively turned his head to avoid it.
Jun Haoyue was startled, lowered his eyes, withdrew his hand, and said lightly: "You are wearing too little, you will catch a cold."
Xu Xingchen looked down and saw that it was indeed the case. He said to him apologetically, "I'm sorry."
"Don't you know there's a man in your house? Why do you come out dressed like this?"
"If you wanted to do something, you should have done it long ago. I'm just a widow." Xu Xingchen shrugged. After all, they had been together for so many days, so Jun Haoyue's character was still guaranteed.
Speaking of this, Xu Xingchen suddenly thought that Jun Haoyue was also a man, so maybe he understood the meaning of iceberg face?
"Well...Jun Haoyue, I have something to ask you." Jun Haoyue nodded and motioned her to speak.
"Well, if someone tells you not to get too close to someone, especially a married person, what does that mean?"
Jun Haoyue: “…”
"That person ate too much and was bloated." Jun Haoyue replied without emotion.
He is probably the only one who describes jealousy as the result of eating too much.
Xu Xingchen patted his arm and agreed very much: "That's right! I also think he's overeating. It's so weird, hahahaha."
Someone was smiling so heartlessly that he didn't even notice that the person next to him had his lips pursed into a straight line.
She remembered the purpose of her coming out, said hello to Jun Haoyue and went into the laboratory.
As soon as I entered the room, the computer started to make rapid sounds: beep beep.
Then, Xu Xingchen was still held in a "meeting" by the Iceberg-faced man for the entire night, under the pretext of exchanging experiences.
