After going to the countryside, I rely on the sign-in system to bring my sisters along

Lin Yiwan's mother didn't have any other ideas, but she also agreed with Lin Yiwan's words, "Yes, they are all good children. Go and see them off, and don't let anything happen to them."

Afterwards, Lin Yihui sent Wen Xi and the others back, but he followed behind them, keeping a distance of several meters. He did not turn around and leave until he saw the three girls entered the yard.

At five o'clock the next morning, the whistle for work sounded, and all the villagers and old educated youth woke up from their slumber, got up and got themselves ready. Then the sound of pots and pans colliding could be heard from every household.

During the busy farming season, everyone eats breakfast at home and only eats in the cafeteria at noon and in the evening.

Harvesting wheat is like competing with God for food, because it happens to be the rainy season. A strong wind or a heavy rain may destroy the wheat that everyone has worked hard to grow for half a year, so everyone must race against time to harvest the wheat.

After breakfast, everyone hurried to the threshing ground. The wheat harvesters went to the fields before 5:30.

The educated youth who just arrived yesterday had today as their day of rest, so they didn't have to go to work today. However, they were woken up early by the work whistle. After complaining for a while, they closed their eyes again. On the other hand, the male educated youth living outside, Gu Huaian, went out for a run early. He was wearing a white shirt, black pants, and a white towel around his neck. Although he had not yet experienced the baptism of farm work, he looked full of energy.

Wenxi and the other two were responsible for cooking, so they didn't have to get up so early. However, getting up early every day had become a habit for Wenxi, so she still got up as early as usual.

Wen Xi first cooked breakfast, then went to feed the chickens, and then carried a basket to the yard of Jin Changfeng's house next door to pick vegetables. At the beginning, all the fruits and vegetables that did not require a rack were planted in the yard of Jin Changfeng's house.

There are some vegetables that are ripe in this season and can be picked. Even if you can't finish eating them, you can put them in the system warehouse and save them for later consumption.

After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue got up, the three of them had breakfast together and then went to the cafeteria.

They arrived quite early. Wang Xiaoju and Sun Mei had not arrived yet, but the villagers had already placed the dishes on the ground outside the canteen.

There are vegetables grown at home, and even wild vegetables, such as tomatoes and cucumbers, which can be used as fruits to satisfy the children's cravings, but no one gives them to them.

Wen Xi smiled helplessly and didn't take these things too seriously. She would just cook whatever dishes people sent her.

Arriving at the cafeteria, Wen Xi sorted the vegetables, calculated the lunch menu in her mind, and then carried the vegetables to the river bend with Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue. She left the two of them to wash the vegetables in the river bend while she fetched two buckets of water and took out the mint leaves that she had grown and picked herself from the system warehouse, and then began to boil mint water.

It is already mid-June, and actually summer has already begun. The temperature is already very high at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, and it feels very hot after working in the fields for a while.

So Wenxi wanted to make mint water for everyone so that everyone could cool down.

After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue came back after washing the vegetables, Wang Xiaoju and Sun Mei finally arrived. After they greeted each other, everyone went about their own business.

At around nine o'clock, several children who agreed to help Wenxi catch cicada monkeys came over carrying cicada monkeys. Wenxi gave them corresponding fruit candies based on the weight of the cicada monkeys they provided, and wrapped them in oil paper so that they would not be sticky.

"Sister Xiaoxi, do you still want the cicada monkey?" The oldest girl, who was in her teens and had some leadership skills, took a piece of fruit candy, put it in her mouth, and asked while eating.

Wen Xi thought for a moment and said, "I want frogs for lunch the day after tomorrow. If you can catch frogs, I'll trade them the same way as I did with the cicada monkeys, one pound of frogs for one piece of fruit candy."

"Okay, we got it. Let's send it to Sister Xiaoxi at this time the day after tomorrow." The leading girl agreed, and then led everyone away.

Jiang Yue looked at the plump cicada monkey and asked in confusion, "Xiaoxi, why are you changing this thing?"

Whether in the countryside or in the city, as soon as summer comes, people will suffer from the ravages of this thing. Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue have naturally seen this thing before.

Wen Xi smiled brightly, "I will make a dish of stir-fried golden cicada for everyone at noon. Please carry the cicada monkey to the river bend and clean it. I will prepare the dishes now."

After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue left, Wen Xi started to cut vegetables and prepare food. Only if everything was prepared in advance, there would be no need to rush when the time comes.

Seeing that the mint water in the pot was cooked, Wen Xi poured the mint water into a wooden barrel to cool. After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue came back, Wen Xi left Jiang Yue in the cafeteria to watch over her dishes, while she and Shen Jiaojiao each carried a bucket of mint water and walked to the wheat field.

Although they were wearing straw hats, the sunlight at this time was very strong and scorching hot. Wenxi was afraid of getting her skin sunburned, so she wore long sleeves and long pants. She was sweating profusely when she arrived at the wheat field.

Wen Xi found Captain Qian, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to Captain Qian, "Captain Qian, I made some refreshing mint water for everyone. It's already cold. Captain Qian, please ask everyone to come over and drink the mint water!"

Captain Qian really didn't expect Wen Xi to be so thoughtful and considerate. He was really impressed by Wen Xi. If his own children had not already started a family, he really wanted to introduce Wen Xi to his own children!

The canteen would be used during the busy farming season every year, but the person in charge of cooking would never do anything else other than cooking, and would not consider so many things for everyone.

But Wenxi is really impressive.

So Captain Qian went to notify the leaders of each small group and asked them to arrange for members of each group to take turns to get mint water to drink. After drinking the cool and refreshing mint water, I really felt like my whole body was cooled down.

After everyone had finished the first bucket of mint water, Wen Xi carried the empty bucket back and asked Jiang Yue to bring out the mint water while she went to cook.

Although her two aunts, Wang Xiaoju and Sun Mei, were present, Wen Xi would always stay alone to prevent others from doing anything to their dishes.

If anything went wrong with the villagers' food, the responsibility would be too great for a little girl like her to bear, so she had to be careful.

At noon, Wenxi fried water spinach and red amaranth with garlic, and also had some cold wild vegetables, mushroom soup, and stir-fried cicada. Four dishes and one soup in total, it was absolutely delicious!

The new educated youth were on leave today and naturally did not eat in the canteen. In the morning, Tian Xiaoke, Tang Xiaoyun and Wang Caiyun drank some throat-irritating corn porridge with the old educated youth.
