Chapter 32 Note
Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue also couldn't wait to eat it, and then they sighed with satisfaction, it was so delicious, "Xiaoxi, I feel like I didn't come to the countryside to suffer, I came here to enjoy."
Wen Xi smiled and said, "With me here, I can't help you with other things, but I can definitely let you eat well. You don't have money or tickets to buy these free things in the country, so I promise to let you eat as much as you want."
"Xiaoxi, I'm really glad that I went to the countryside with you." Shen Jiaojiao was very grateful. If she hadn't gone to the countryside, she might have been married off by her grandmother in exchange for a dowry.
Now that she has moved to the countryside, her grandmother can't take care of her, and it's impossible for her grandmother to be so kind as to give her money to help her buy a job. In other words, she doesn't have to worry about her grandmother doing anything bad to her.
"Xiaoxi, Jiaojiao, it's great to meet you." Jiang Yue was also particularly grateful to have met them on the train. Otherwise, with only thirty yuan, she would probably have starved to death in the countryside.
Her family was so cruel to her. They only gave her 30 yuan when she had to buy everything from scratch in such a poor village.
If she hadn't met the kind-hearted Wen Xi and Shen Jiaojiao, she probably wouldn't have survived the winter of her first year in the countryside.
So she was really grateful. No matter what happened in her life, she would stand firmly on their side and would never back down or waver.
There was only one dish tonight, which was pickled fish stewed with potatoes and radishes, but after eating all the dishes, they were all full and their stomachs were round.
Jiang Yue rubbed her stomach and said with great satisfaction, "I don't think I've ever eaten as much as I do now. I'm really satisfied."
"If you like eating fish, I'll make it next time." She had already collected a lot of fish, enough for them to eat for a while. Moreover, no one had caught fish in that unknown stream, so the fish in it were overrun. They had to work harder to eat more fish, otherwise the fish would destroy the ecosystem.
Next door, Chang Qingqing's family of four were also sitting at the dining table, eating fish under the dim kerosene lamp, because they had already had dinner before dark.
Wenxi brought them four large fish weighing one pound, just enough for each person. After Zhao Yuanyuan ate them, her eyes lit up. "I didn't expect that fish and pickles can be so delicious together. Let's go to the river bend to catch some fish!"
"You are not allowed to go." Chang Qingqing looked at Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhao Huihui seriously. "Neither of you are allowed to go. The water in the river bay is so deep. It is not a place you can go. If you want to eat fish, go to the small ditch to catch them. In short, you are not allowed to go to the river bay without permission."
"Your mother is right. The water in the river bend is too deep. We can't go there. Grown men have drowned there in the past few years, let alone you little girls." Zhao Zhiping nodded in agreement while eating fish. Water and fire are merciless and must be stayed away from.
Zhao Yuanyuan stuck out her tongue mischievously, then nodded, "Got it, we definitely won't go to the river bend."
Zhao Huihui raised her hand tentatively. "Then let's wait until there's a shortage of water before we go fishing, okay?"
Sometimes there is no rain for several months in a row, and at this time there is not much water in the river bend, so there is no danger.
"Then you can only go to the place where people wash clothes. You are not allowed to go to the dam upstream." Chang Qingqing warned.
If one sacrifices one's life just for the sake of satisfying one's appetite, it is not worth it. Although she does not know how Wenxi catches the fish, she is not envious. After all, fish are easy to catch in this era. There are fish even in rice fields. Why bother to go to the river bend to catch them?
"Okay, okay, next time you want to eat fish, just ask your dad to catch it and don't worry about it." Chang Qingqing was afraid that they would go fishing secretly without their knowledge, so she stopped them from doing that.
"Yes, I will catch him later." Zhao Zhiping said.
However, he didn't dare to go upstream of the river bend, and could only catch them in small ditches or ponds.
Chang Qingqing's family had dinner, and after dinner each of them ate a big fish weighing one kilogram. They were all so full that they didn't want to move, but they were very satisfied because they had never eaten such delicious fish before.
Wen Xi got up and walked around in the yard to digest her food. When she returned to the kitchen, Shen Jiaojiao had already cleaned it up and boiled the water.
Everyone worked very conscientiously, which made Wenxi very satisfied. After all, this home was the common home of the three of them, so naturally everyone had to contribute, otherwise it would be unfair to anyone.
After adding firewood to the stove, there was no need to keep an eye on it, so Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue went back to their rooms.
Wen Xi took out twenty-one eggs from the system warehouse and put them in the cupboard. He then filled the bottle with cooking oil, took out the bacon, cut two pounds of it and put it in the cupboard.
In this way, when I am not at home, it will not affect Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue's eating and drinking.
Wen Xi sat behind the stove and took out the note that Jin Changfeng had stuffed into her hand.
"I'll wait for you on the mountain at twelve o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
Jin Changfeng's handwriting is flowing and full of power.
Wen Xi didn't know why he asked her to meet him on the mountain, but she thought that he was a military comrade and a gentleman, so he would not do anything to hurt her!
Wen Xi leaned back and started signing in. When she signed out a 400-pound wild boar, she was startled and couldn't help but exclaim.
When Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue heard Wen Xi's voice, they ran out of the room nervously and asked worriedly, "Xiao Xi, what's wrong? What happened?"
Wen Xi didn't expect that she would attract them with her loud noise. She smiled awkwardly and said, "It's nothing. I just added some firewood and a small spark jumped onto my hand. It's not that hot."
Jiang Yue quickly squatted down, grabbed Wen Xi's hand and began to check it. Indeed, there was no sign of injury, so she felt relieved.
Wenxi stood up and said, "The water is hot, you all go wash up! I'll come over to wash up in a while."
After that, Wen Xi hurried back to the room, closed the door, and leaned against the door panel to check. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a big wild boar.
But what should she do with such a big wild boar?
She is not a butcher, and she doesn't know how to handle a wild boar. If she takes the wild boar out to handle it, wouldn't everyone know that she has a wild boar?
Wen Xi didn't dwell on the matter anymore, but continued to sign in. She signed out ten kilograms of apples and four kilograms of large white shrimps. She probably knew that there was a shortage of supplies in the countryside and that her life was hard, so the things she signed out today were all food.
