"Comrade Wen, I'm sorry for the expense." Gu Huaian handed the basket in his hand to Wen Xi.

Wen Xi was stunned for a moment, then he reached out to take it, smiling faintly, "I didn't spend any money, I exchanged it with the children in the village with fruit candies. Everyone, please take a seat, I have something to tell you later."

There were three people including Wen Xi, three people including Tian Shengnan, three new educated youth and Lin Yiwan, a total of ten people. Four people sat on each side of the bed, and two people sat at each end, which was just enough space for everyone.

In order to make it easier for everyone to pick up the food, Wen Xi chose one of the two ends of the beds. She had eaten a lot of these dishes and was not greedy, so she left the opportunity to enjoy the delicious food tonight to everyone.

After everyone was seated, Wen Xi spoke up, "The reason I gathered you all together today is actually because I have something to tell you. Captain Qian asked me to plant watermelons for the team next year."

When Lin Yiwan heard this, she thought silently in her heart that it seemed that the watermelons grown in her space could not be sold on the market, otherwise it would affect the sales volume of watermelons in the team. After all, she didn't want to see the team continue to be so poor. She was also happy that everyone's conditions were getting better and better and their lives were getting better without her having to ask for help.

After all, if you are poor, you can take care of yourself, and if you are rich, you can help the world. She is so rich, and she really wants to do something for the team.

Now that the team can develop on its own without her having to do anything, she is naturally happy!

"I'm not sure how much land Captain Qian will use to plant watermelons, so I want to let everyone know first. Planting watermelons is definitely not as hard as farming. Besides, there are many of us, and we can take shifts. It's easier than working in the fields, but the work points won't be that high. I'll see if I can apply for five work points a day. If Captain Qian agrees, are you willing to plant watermelons with me?"

Now that the team has planted forage grass, we won’t have to cut grass for pigs next year. By then, Wenxi will also have to go to the fields.

Between farming and growing watermelons, Wen Xi would definitely choose to grow watermelons. After all, growing watermelons does not require her to work in the fields every day, and she will have time to do her own things.

"I do." Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue expressed their opinions almost at the same time.

Now they can earn dozens of yuan a month, which is higher than the income of city workers. They don’t need to rely on work points to make a living. Even without this income, they would still follow Wen Xi throughout the journey.

Wenxi is their leader, whatever Wenxi does, they do!

"I'm willing to do that too." Gu Huaian said.

Not to mention his family, just talking about him personally, his personal conditions were very good and he didn't need to rely on those few work points to make a living.

Afterwards, everyone expressed their willingness to grow watermelons with Wenxi. Everyone had good conditions, so there was really no need to work so hard.

"Well, I have one more thing to say. The reason why I chose to bring you guys along is because in June and July when the watermelons are ripe, we need to watch over them at night to prevent villagers from our team or other teams from destroying them. You guys need to take turns to watch over them at night, but I will apply for a puppy from the team. With the puppy watching over them, we can get twice the result with half the effort."

If it weren't for this, Wen Xi wouldn't have brought along the five men!

It is very dangerous to let a girl wait in a watermelon field at night. If she is dragged into the darkness by a second-rate old widower, her life will be ruined.

But gay men are different, they are stronger. If any girls in the village want to plot against them, they will not succeed due to the huge difference in strength.

Gu Huaian nodded, "I understand, I have no problem."

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that there was no problem.

"Okay, since there are no problems, I will go to talk to Captain Qian about this matter some other day. I hope Captain Qian can agree to my application." Wen Xi said with a smile.

After that, everyone happily started to eat dinner. With so many delicious foods, no one could stop eating.

"Tang Xiaoyun hasn't appeared for a while, and I don't know where she went." While eating, Tian Shengnan suddenly remembered this incident and said it out loud.

Wen Xi paused for a moment with his chopsticks in his hand and asked curiously, "What did Captain Qian say? Did he send someone to investigate this matter?"

Tian Shengnan shook her head. "I don't know. We haven't asked Captain Qian."

In the original story, Tang Xiaoyun is the female villain who got away with it the cleanest, lived the longest, and was the happiest. Nothing should happen to her, right?

Villains will never have a good ending in the end, but Tang Xiaoyun is different, because she got herself out of it, cleanly, just like the villain Lin Jing who hid behind Lin Lan. Both of them got married, had children, and lived a good life. Only Lin Lan had to bear it all alone.

"Also, Li Wei and Qian Chunxing should be getting married soon. Will you go then?" Tian Shengnan asked.

"Of course I'll go. A dime for a meal is not a bad deal. But the quality of the food depends on whether the host is generous on that day." Wen Xi and Li Wei didn't have any direct conflicts, so they could still go on the wedding day. "By the way, where will they live after the wedding? They won't live in the bride's house like Zhu Jiawen did, right?"

"Qian Chunxing's family applied for a homestead for her and built a thatched hut for them to live in. Thatched huts are very easy to build and can be completed in two days," said Tian Shengnan.

They lived in the educated youth centers and were able to get the news first.

Wen Xi nodded thoughtfully. There were still people living in thatched huts in the team, so there was no problem in building one. Moreover, if the thatched hut was built sturdily, they could live in it for a long time.

In fact, it is a very happy thing to own a thatched hut in the countryside and live alone at this time. After all, many people live together with their families and have no space of their own.

This Li Wei looks very weak and cowardly. He cannot shoulder responsibilities and cannot accomplish anything great. He may not be devoted to Qian Chunxing. No one knows why Qian Chunxing gave up Zhao Mingzhu and chose Li Wei. No one knows whether Qian Chunxing will regret it.

By the way, Qian Chunxing didn’t really like Zhao Mingzhu, she just didn’t want her friend Ling Xiao to have an easy time, so she naturally wouldn’t regret it.

There is strength in numbers. Everyone finished the dinner made by Wenxi.

Although we can eat Wenxi's cooking in the cafeteria every day during the busy farming season, and there are several dishes that are often eaten during the busy farming season, today's dinner is obviously better than what we eat in the cafeteria, which shows that Wenxi did not use his full skills when cooking in the cafeteria.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal and just sat there slumped.

Wen Xi was not that exaggerated. After all, she had delicious food every day and was not greedy, so she ate until she was about 80% full, just like usual.

After resting for a while, Wenxi picked up the watermelon and took it to the kitchen to cut it.
