Shi's mother nodded happily, "Yes, we got it. Your team leader is really good. He actually agreed to let us exchange meat."

"That's because the pigs are fatter this year. If there weren't enough to go around in our village in previous years, we would definitely not agree to the exchange." Wen Xi said with a smile.

Mother Shi continued, "Actually, I really wanted to exchange for another fish, because I personally like eating fish, but Captain Qian said that there is only one fish per family, which is just enough to share, so he can't exchange it for me."

"Sister, I have a fish here. If you want to exchange it, I'll give it to you first because I won't be here for the New Year and I don't really need fish." Wen Xi took out the fish that she had been allocated.

"Is it really possible?" Shi's mother looked at Wen Xi excitedly.

Wen Xi nodded. She had no shortage of fish. Not only did she raise fish in the farm, but Qin Mi also took her to the farm to stock up on a lot of fish. The only problem was that the fish in the farm were fed with feed, which had a strong fishy smell, and she didn't like to eat them.

Moreover, her system warehouse still had a lot of wild fish that she had caught before, so she had no shortage of fish to eat.

Afterwards, Shi's mother exchanged the fish with Wenxi.

Yan's mother and Shi's mother brought their children to play in Wenxi for about two hours and then left. Wenxi invited them to stay for dinner, saying that there would be pigs slaughtered in the evening, but they refused, mainly because it would be inconvenient to go back at night after dark.

Moreover, they got meat in exchange today. Wenxi also picked some vegetables for them for a few days and packed a big bag of dried mushrooms. They only ordered some food but got so much in exchange. How could they feel comfortable staying here for dinner?

Wen Xi told them that the three of them would be going home to celebrate the New Year soon, and asked them not to come looking for her during the New Year period, otherwise she would definitely not be able to find them.

Yan's mother asked Wenxi to find Yan Zheng and ask Yan Zheng to buy her a sleeper ticket so that she could be more comfortable riding the train.

Of course Wen Xi had to find Yan Zheng. She saved Lili and Yan Zheng. She did not seek repayment for the favor and she was usually very nice to them. So what was wrong with asking Yan Zheng for help now when they needed it?

For Yan Zheng, buying her a sleeper train ticket was a very small thing. If he was not willing to help, it would mean that Wen Xi had saved him in vain.

In order to repay her kindness, Jin Changfeng would exchange some local specialties for her wherever he went. What did Yan Zheng give her? He got a promotion and a raise because of her, but when he was asked to come to the countryside to support her, he refused and came after a long time.

Qin Mi was more decisive. He supported her when she arrived. At least no one dared to do anything to her openly.

When she returns home in the future, she won’t be able to use her connections and friends here anymore, so why not use them now?

In the evening, everyone came and lined up to share the braised food. Each person got one spoonful of the braised food and two spoonfuls of braised food soup. This way, they could add vegetables to the stew and eat it when they got home. Who’s family doesn’t have radishes and cabbages in this winter?

After everything was done, Wenxi and the other two went home.

Wenxi poured the braised food in the enamel basin into the iron pot, cut some potatoes, radishes and lotus roots and cooked them together. He also cut some cabbage and put it on the side. When it was almost time to serve, he would put the cabbage in.

Before the braised food was served, Wen Xi filled a large bowl with it and placed it in the system warehouse. He Chenan would come to bring her medicine in the evening, so this bowl was reserved for He Chenan.

He Chenan had been very good to her before, and he brought her many good memories and did many childish things with her. She didn't hate He Chenan. If they couldn't continue to get along as a partner, they could still get along as friends!

At night, when everyone had gone to bed, He Chenan came over and Wen Xi brought out the braised food and corn buns that had been in the pot for He Chenan to eat.

This corn bun was also a frozen bun she stockpiled. After heating, the bun became soft and fluffy, with a light sweetness, which is very different from the irritating corn buns of this era.

He Chenan ate steamed buns and braised food with big mouthfuls, feeling particularly happy.

Wen Xi sat opposite him drinking tea, watching He Chenan's face gradually gain weight and gradually regain his former handsomeness and vigor. She finally experienced the joy of nurturing.

Watching a person change day by day, I really feel a sense of pride in my heart.

After He Chenan had eaten and drunk his fill, he went to wash the dishes and clean up the pot. Then he looked at Wen Xi as if asking for praise. However, Wen Xi did not let him have his wish. She did these things every day. When had she ever asked for praise?

Today everyone shared meat and pig-slaughtering dishes, so the whole harvest team was filled with the strong aroma of meat, and everyone had a bright smile on their face.

Ever since Gu Huaian and Xu Mengying got married, Li Jianguo and Lu Mingxiu no longer ate with the couple. After all, they didn't want to be a third wheel, so they went to Captain Qian and asked him to arrange someone who could build a stove. They built a thatched hut and a stove on the other side of the courtyard wall.

Afterwards, Li Jianguo and Lu Mingxiu had dinner alone.

In fact, they had no objection to eating with Gu Huaian, but they didn't want to support Xu Mengying. Xu Mengying was not related to them, let alone their wife.

If she doesn't go to work, then let Gu Huai'an take care of her. What does it have to do with them?

In the evening, Xu Mengying and Gu Huaian sat together for dinner. Xu Mengying picked up a piece of braised food with chopsticks. Just as she was about to eat it, she suddenly felt nauseous. She quickly put the braised food back, "Why is it so disgusting? Did Wenxi and the others not wash it clean at all?"

Gu Huaian picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and said, "It's delicious, don't talk nonsense."

Xu Mengying looked at Gu Huaian angrily. She wanted Gu Huaian to eat the food she cooked, but her cooking was mediocre and could not compare to Wen Xi's cooking skills at all. Seeing Gu Huaian eating the food cooked by Wen Xi with big mouthfuls, Xu Mengying felt very uncomfortable.

So Xu Mengying took another bite of the braised pork that Gu Huaian had made himself. She felt nauseous again, and she felt very uncomfortable. She put down her chopsticks angrily, "I won't eat it anymore. Why does the meat taste so disgusting today? It makes me want to vomit."

At this point, Xu Mengying was stunned for a moment, then she grabbed Gu Huaian's hand, "Brother Huaian, do you think I'm pregnant? I've heard before that pregnant women will feel nauseous and can't eat meat."

Gu Huaian was also stunned there. He was neither excited nor happy, but rather a little bewildered. He had a child with someone he didn't like. It seemed like his life had come to an end and was meaningless.

"After I finish my meal, we'll go to the clinic and let the doctor see you." Gu Huaian did not immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and take Xu Mengying there. Xu Mengying was not that important in his heart.
