Wenxi and her friends were responsible for cooking lunch and dinner. It wasn't too tiring, but it was too hot and smoky. Their clothes were soaked with sweat every day, as if they had just been fished out of the water.

The holiday is finally here, and we don’t have to go to the cafeteria tomorrow, so the three of us are very happy.

When they got home, it was still light. The three of them first wiped their mattresses, then took turns taking a shower and changing into clean and comfortable clothes.

Wen Xi went to the yard and picked three cucumbers. He soaked them in the well water for a while, then gave one to Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue, and took one for himself and went back to his room to eat.

Freshly picked cucumbers are really delicious, crisp and juicy, with the unique aroma of cucumber. No wonder the villagers are reluctant to send any to the canteen, and instead send some old vegetable leaves every day to fool everyone.

Wen Xi sat cross-legged on the cool bamboo mat, eating a cucumber while opening Jin Changfeng's package. This afternoon, the postman not only delivered He Chenan's letter, but also Jin Changfeng's package.

It was not safe to leave the package in the cafeteria, so she ignored the heat and sent it home.

After opening the package and seeing the large cotton-padded jacket with Northeastern characteristics inside, Wen Xi was a little amused. It was only summer now. Wasn't it a little too early for Jin Changfeng to send her the Northeastern cotton-padded jacket?

But considering that winter comes there in October, it is understandable.

There were three dried pheasants, two dried rabbits, several kilograms of dried meat, and more than ten kilograms of dried mushrooms in the package. There was also a letter hidden in the sleeve of the cotton-padded jacket. There was thirty yuan and several bills in the envelope.

Wen Xi was very touched. Jin Changfeng was so good to her, the sister he met halfway through. He was willing to spend time and effort to buy these things for her. She didn't know how to repay him.

The weather is hot now, so it's difficult to send anything. Food may go bad on the way if sent. Besides, we don't know if Jin Changfeng has the time or place to cook food, so there is no way to send him food.

Wen Xi looked at the things in the system warehouse and thought for a long time before starting to pack up the things to send to Jin Changfeng.

She opened thirty packets of instant noodles, took out thirty pieces of instant noodle cakes, soaked them in boiling water and ate them. When she couldn't eat in time, she could make a portion of instant noodles to fill her stomach.

Two bottles of mushroom sauce and chili sauce each. If you don’t have those seasonings when eating instant noodles, you can add a spoonful of sauce to enhance the taste. And you can use this to enhance the flavor whether you are eating rice or porridge.

Then he opened four packets of juice powder, one in orange, peach, pineapple, and strawberry flavors, wrapped them in tar paper, put them into an empty malted milk can, and wrote down the drinking instructions and put them in the can.

Other things are not suitable for sending now, so Wen Xi prepared these things, packed them up, put them in the system warehouse, and planned to go to the post office to send them to Jin Changfeng tomorrow.

After it got dark, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue went out with their tools, followed by Wen Xi.

When she found the giant river shrimps in the lotus pond that day, Wenxi noticed that the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom. She wanted to see if she could pick the lotus pods. The fresh and tender lotus seeds are quite delicious. As long as the small green buds in the middle are removed, the lotus seeds will not taste bitter.

Arriving at the lotus pond, Wenxi put on his swimming suit and walked toward the middle of the lotus leaves. He saw a lotus pod, but did not pick it immediately. Instead, he pinched the lotus seeds inside and found that the lotus seeds had grown well and were all quite plump, so he began to pick the lotus pod.

She picked lotus pods from several nearby lotus ponds and broke off the water chestnuts growing by the ponds, then went ashore to go to other places. She had already caught all the fish here and would not catch any more for the time being. She had to give the fish time to grow, and she should be able to catch the fish and crab fry she released next summer.

The next morning, the first thing Wenxi did after getting up was to go to the yard next door to pick vegetables. At this time, the leaves were still covered with dew and looked very fresh and tender. Wenxi wanted to taste them right away.

The watermelons were already very big. Wenxi picked the biggest one, patted it gently, and the sound seemed quite crisp, so he must be ripe. So he picked the biggest watermelon without hesitation and put the heavy watermelon into the system warehouse. Then Wenxi continued to pick vegetables.

One basket simply couldn't hold so many vegetables, so after she filled the basket, she put the remaining vegetables into the system warehouse.

Almost all the vegetables at Jin Changfeng's house had been picked, so Wen Xi went back to her own home and started picking them again. She didn't take a shower and clean herself up until she had picked them all.

Even though it’s still early and the sun hasn’t come out yet, after such a simple busy schedule, Wen Xi feels his whole body getting hot, as if he has a fever.

After Wen Xi took a warm bath, her whole body felt refreshed. A gust of morning breeze blew and she felt very cool. She returned to her room, flashed into the system kitchen, and broke the big watermelon.

A crisp and pleasant sound was heard, and then the watermelon was split into two, revealing the red flesh. Wen Xi could not wait to cut a small piece and took a bite with great anticipation. It was crisp, sweet, refreshing, juicy, as if sugar was added, and the more he ate, the more he loved it.

Thinking that he might not be able to sign out watermelon seedlings in the future, Wen Xi immediately spat out the watermelon seeds in his mouth, intending to save them as seeds.

In order to preserve the watermelon seeds, she cut up all the remaining watermelons, picked out all the seeds with chopsticks, separated the watermelon flesh from the rind, and then cut the watermelon flesh into bite-sized pieces and put it in a bowl. Whenever she wanted to eat it, she could just fill a bowl with it.

Coming out of the system kitchen, Wen Xi took all the winter clothes, shoes, and quilts to the yard to dry them in the sun and disinfect them to prevent them from getting moldy and having an odor.

After Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue got up, Wen Xi brought out three bowls of dumplings from the system kitchen. It was too hot to cook in the summer, so she preferred to cook in the system kitchen which was neither too hot nor too cold.

By making a little extra and putting it in there each time, she wouldn’t have to cook for several days. Besides, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue were not picky eaters, so they would eat whatever she cooked.

When Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue finished cleaning up and came to the kitchen, they saw a bowl of red stuff next to the dumplings. Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head and smelled the fragrance of watermelon. She looked up at Wen Xi excitedly, "Xiao Xi, is this the watermelon you planted in the yard next door?"

Wen Xi nodded excitedly, "Yes, it's the watermelon I grew myself, come and have a try."

Wenxi cut the watermelon into easy-to-eat sizes, so you can eat it in one bite, which is very satisfying.

Shen Jiaojiao couldn't wait to pinch a piece of watermelon and put it in her mouth. Then she said excitedly, "It's so delicious. It's much better than the watermelons I ate before. Xiaoxi, how can you be so capable? How can you be so amazing?"
