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

In fact, it was because Yan Zheng never came, which dampened her enthusiasm and made her less willing to go to the Yan family. Moreover, if she always went to the Yan family, would the Yan family think that she was trying to repay a favor?

She didn't have such intention at the beginning, and she has even less intention now. Moreover, from the city to the county, everyone praised her. This is the supreme honor and recognition of her efforts.

Wen Xi opened the courtyard gate and invited them to rest in the main room. He went back to his room first, put some candies and biscuits on a plate to entertain Yan Lili, and then brought cups to make tea for them.

"Xiaoxi, I still have things to deal with. My mom and Lili will let you rest here for a while, okay?" Yan Zheng saw Wen Xi was about to make tea, so he hurriedly stopped her.

Wen Xi nodded, "Of course, Brother Yan, just go and handle the matter with peace of mind!"

Although Yan Zheng didn't drink tea, Yan's mother and Yan Lili were still there, and Wen Xi couldn't not even pour them a glass of water. But thinking that an old lady and a little girl probably didn't drink much tea, Wen Xi brought two bowls and made them some malted milk.

Wen Xi poured herself a glass of boiled water, then sat down next to Yan Lili. She handed Yan Lili a piece of egg cake and said with a smile, "Lili is so beautiful today. You look so beautiful when you smile."

Little girls all love beauty, and when they heard her praise, bright smiles appeared on their faces.

Yan Lili ate the egg cake while complaining, "Sister Xiaoxi, why don't you come to see me for such a long time? I really miss Sister Xiaoxi. I don't have anyone to play with at home. It's really boring!"

Wen Xi reached out to help Yan Lili wipe the crumbs from her mouth, a little incredulous, "Lili doesn't have any friends at school or home? Lili is so cute, there should be a lot of kids willing to make friends with her, right?"

"They are so annoying. They treat me very nicely when I have food in my hand, but ignore me when I have nothing..." Yan Lili pouted and snorted coldly.

Wen Xi reacted instantly. She didn't expect that a child who was only a few years old could be so snobbish.

She touched Yan Lili's head with some distress, and said with a smile, "Lili, you are still young now, and you will make true friends in the future. However, friends are not bought with money or food, and such friends will not last long. You must protect your things in the future, and you can't let others trick you away with a few words..."

Yan Lili nodded obediently, "Sister Xiaoxi, I understand."

"Autumn is the season of harvest. There are a lot of mushrooms and wild fruits in the mountains now. Lili, I will take you to the mountains to pick mushrooms later. I will let you be a little girl picking mushrooms for once. How about that?"

Thinking that it was still early, Wen Xi wanted to take Yan Lili to pick mushrooms. If they picked mushrooms on the outer side of the mountain and didn't go inside, nothing would happen.

"Grandma..." Yan Lili looked at her mother.

Mother Yan nodded and said, "Go ahead. There is no place to play in the city. It would be nice to go and have some fun."

In the city, people don’t dare let children go out to play alone for fear of human traffickers. Although the human traffickers here have almost all been caught, who knows if there are human traffickers from other places coming here?

It’s like this when you have children at home. You’re always worried, afraid that something might happen to the children.

Seeing that her grandmother agreed, Yan Lili stood up and cheered happily. It was obvious how boring it was to be detained at home on weekdays. Wenxi was not like this when she was a child. Wenxi was raised by her second brother. When her second brother was free, he would take her out to play. There was a stream behind the family compound where everyone washed clothes. In the summer, her second brother took her to fish, shrimp and crabs, and also taught her to swim...

Wenxi's childhood was colorful and happy.

It was still early and there was still some time before lunch time. He could still have enough time to go up the mountain to pick a basket of mushrooms and then come back to cook. Wen Xi went to the kitchen under the pretext of getting the basket, and then brought out a few dishes from the system kitchen, saying that they were prepared before he went out in the morning.

Yan's mother had not arrived here at that time, so naturally there was no way for her to verify these things.

Wenxi first filled the frying pan half full of water, put a steamer on it, and then placed the dishes on top. Today, Wenxi served braised air-dried chicken, stir-fried bacon with beans, and stir-fried pork liver with onions.

When you come back from picking mushrooms, just make a mushroom soup and then stir-fry some vegetables.

Wen Xi planned to take Yan Lili to the mountain to pick mushrooms alone, and let Aunt Yan rest at home. Aunt Yan probably thought that Yan Lili was too young to take care of a child, so she also wanted to go up the mountain with her. So the three of them went up the mountain together.

There are really a lot of mushrooms on the mountain during this season. Even if there are people going up the mountain to pick mushrooms every day, mushrooms will still appear on the second or third day where people pass by, so generally there is no need to run too far.

The reason why Wenxi ran far away was that she would not come down the mountain until the evening.

"Lili, beautiful mushrooms are poisonous. You must not touch them. Just pick the ones I just taught you. I will make you mushroom soup at noon." Wen Xi reminded her worriedly, fearing that Yan Lili would be dazzled by the beautiful mushrooms and then pick the beautiful mushrooms.

"Sister Xiaoxi, I get it. I won't pick the wrong mushrooms, don't worry, Sister Xiaoxi!" Yan Lili said confidently, and then bent down to look for mushrooms among the dead branches and leaves.

Some mushrooms are among the dead branches and leaves and have not yet grown up. You have to look very carefully to see them!

Wen Xi looked at Yan's mother and said, "Aunt Yan, I dried a lot of mushrooms before. When you go home today, bring some mushrooms back to try."

Mother Yan nodded shyly, "Xiaoxi, thank you so much, our family owes you so much."

Yan Lili and Yan Zheng were both rescued by Wen Xi. If it weren't for Wen Xi, two people would have disappeared from their Yan family within a year. Who could bear this?

So Wen Xi not only saved the two of them, but also saved the entire Yan family.

It was almost time to make lunch, so Wenxi took Yan's mother and Yan Lili down the mountain. Yan Lili carried a half-basket of mushrooms in one hand and held Wenxi's hand with the other. "Sister Xiaoxi, picking mushrooms is really fun. I want to pick more mushrooms."

"Then wait until the next holiday and ask your uncle or grandfather to send you over, and then your sister will take you to pick mushrooms, how about that? By that time the water in the rice fields will have dried up, and we can go to the rice fields to catch small fish and shrimps." Wen Xi said.

Yan Lili cheered happily, "I'm coming, I'm coming, Sister Xiaoxi, I'm coming!"

"Then come." Wen Xi said firmly.

Mother Yan was very pleased to see Yan Lili's happy face.
