So Wen Xi carefully poured the contents of the lunch box onto the table, then carefully opened the outer layer of newspaper, and opened it all the way to the innermost layer, only then did he see the ginseng wrapped inside.

There were ginsengs in all three lunch boxes, two that were 100 years old, two that were 50 years old, and two that were younger.

He Chenan also left a note inside, saying that he asked a friend in the Northeast to help change it.

She didn't expect that he still remembered that she had asked someone to exchange ginseng for her, and she didn't expect that he would secretly ask someone to exchange ginseng for her. He Chenan was really so nice. Wen Xi was so moved that she almost cried, and she also had the idea of ​​getting married.

If she marries He Chenan, her married life shouldn't be bad, right?

When the college entrance examination is resumed in the future, He Chenan should not stop her from taking it, right?

Wen Xi put the ginseng into the system warehouse and placed it together with the ginseng that he had asked Jin Changfeng to exchange last time. Then he came out of the system kitchen, went to the yard and touched the bath water that had been dried in the sun. Unexpectedly, the plastic sheet had been scalded by the sun, but the water inside was warm. Wen Xi then fetched a bucket of warm water and went to the bathroom. He took a shower and changed his clothes. He was no longer sweaty and felt much more comfortable.

After getting ready, Wen Xi went to the cafeteria wearing a straw hat. However, Wen Xi did not go directly into the cafeteria. Instead, he quietly went to the river bay from other places and transferred 20 large carps from the system warehouse. Then he came to the cafeteria and said to Shen Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, I caught the fish. Hurry up and fill the wooden basin with water and raise the fish."

Seeing that Wen Xi had a thick bamboo pole on his shoulder with large white carps hanging on both ends of the pole, Wang Xiaoju and Sun Mei's faces turned unhappy.

Because they had just argued in front of Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue that Wenxi was late again today. In fact, it didn't matter when he came, as long as he didn't affect everyone's meal. But they just didn't like Wenxi's increasingly high status. Why should they, the new educated youth, get to work in the canteen, causing the original few people to go to the fields to earn work points?

But no one expected that Wenxi would bring back so many fish.

Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue immediately took the wooden bucket to the river bend to fetch water and filled several wooden basins with water. Wen Xi then untied the fish from the grass and put them into the wooden basins.

As soon as the fish entered the water, it flapped its tail, splashing large amounts of water and directly wetting the ground.

The silver carp and bighead carp that Wenxi brought out today all weigh three or four kilograms each. There are twenty of them here, weighing several dozen kilograms, which is enough for everyone to have a good meal.

"Wenxi, thank you for your hard work. How about I cook this fish for you at noon?" Wang Xiaoju came over with a flattering smile.

Wen Xi refused with a cold face, "No need, everyone should just do their own job and do their own things well."

Why should she give the fish she worked so hard to catch to Wang Xiaoju? This person is really good at picking peaches. But Wen Xi is not that stupid. It is impossible for her to take credit for her own achievements.

There is also a hint in Wen Xi's words, which is that no matter what time she comes in the future, as long as she doesn't disturb everyone's meal, it's okay for her to come at 11 o'clock in the morning. After all, the three of them can cook at the same time.

Wang Xiaoju curled her lips and left angrily. She also looked at the big fish in the wooden basins with envy. There were four wooden basins, and each of them contained five big fish. With so many fish, who wouldn't be jealous?

Only Wenxi is a fool, giving subsidies to everyone every day.

Of course, if Wenxi secretly kept the fish, she would definitely report her. How could she be the only one to have so many fish? But watching her give the fish to the villagers, Wang Xiaoju felt indignant.

Today is the day to eat cicada monkeys again. Wenxi made cicada monkeys for everyone at noon. Because there was fish to eat in the evening, Wenxi made all the cicada monkeys at noon and did not leave them for the evening.

At noon, when everyone came to the cafeteria to eat, they all saw the big fish kept in the wooden basin. The big white fish looked very tempting, and some people were already swallowing their saliva exaggeratedly.

Although there is a delicious dish every day, fish is something we rarely eat. During the spring planting season, the spicy dried fish that Wenxi made for everyone was really delicious. These big fish will definitely taste good.

Before we even had lunch, we were already looking forward to dinner.

Captain Qian and his colleagues were village cadres. They arrived late and stood in line at the back. When they heard everyone say that Wenxi had caught a lot of big fish and everyone would have a treat in the evening, their faces were full of disapproval.

Because the river bend is wide and the water is deep, it is really dangerous. Even the men in the village who can swim dare not go into the river to catch fish.

After dinner, everyone went to the woods outside to enjoy the cool air. Captain Qian also went to the wooden basin to look at the fish. Seeing those fresh big fish, Captain Qian couldn't believe it.

Wenxi is a weak woman, but she caught so many big fish.

Wen Xi was only thinking about everyone, wanting everyone to eat well and eat nutritiously, so Captain Qian couldn't say anything to blame her.

"Uncle Qian, do you have something to talk to me about?" Wen Xi asked curiously.

"We will harvest the grass tomorrow morning and feed it to cows and pigs to see if they will eat it. Do you want to come and inspect the results? After all, you provided the grass seeds and planting methods." Captain Qian said.

Wen Xi nodded, "Okay, then I won't go to pick grass for the pigs tomorrow morning, I'll go directly to the pasture."

There were so many fish in the cafeteria, and Wenxi was afraid that the fish would be stolen. After all, there were hundreds of people in the Harvest Brigade, including all kinds of people, so the three of them did not go back after dinner.

Wen Xi left Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue in the cafeteria to watch the fish, while Wen Xi took a bamboo basket and a wooden barrel to the river bend, to the place where everyone washed clothes. He put the bamboo basket into the water, threw a piece of pork liver into it, and then waited under the shade of a tree.

There are dense forests on both sides of the river bend. The leaves rustle in the wind and the breeze is quite cool. It is much cooler than the cafeteria which is like a furnace. Otherwise, it would be impossible for everyone to go outside the cafeteria to enjoy the cool air after dinner.

Some people got their meals and took them directly outside to eat under the trees.

Whenever small fish swam into the bamboo basket, Wenxi would scoop them up with a scoop net and put them in a wooden barrel. These small fish included colorful minnows, plump wheatear fish, thin and long white silver carp, black betta, beautiful river grouper, and the most abundant one was the big-bellied fish...

After fishing for about an hour, Wenxi washed the small fish directly in the river. It was very troublesome to clean the internal organs of small fish. After cleaning, the fish were basically gone, so Wenxi did not remove them.

Back in the cafeteria, Wenxi pickled the small fish with salt, then took out the small fish and placed them on a winnowing basket. He then took the winnowing basket outside the cafeteria and placed it in the sun.
