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

If it weren't for that idiot Yan Zheng who didn't know how to seize the opportunity, wouldn't Xiaoxi have become their real family?

When Wen Xi heard the name "Brother Qiang", she couldn't help but burst out laughing. She remembered watching a cartoon at Qin Mi's house in the 21st century, and the protagonist seemed to be "Brother Qiang".

"Second brother Xiaoxi, what's the current situation with our Yan Qiang? When will they be able to come back?" Yan's mother asked with concern.

Her eldest son and daughter-in-law have been working outside and seldom come back, so they don't have time to raise the child. She is really worried that Lili will become distant from her parents in the future.

"Actually, Brother Qiang and sister-in-law planned to come back for the Chinese New Year last year, but sister-in-law found out she was pregnant some time before the Chinese New Year, so she couldn't make the long journey back. But she's going to give birth in a while, so she should be able to come back after the baby is born!" Pei Jingzhou said.

Yan's mother knew that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, because Yan Qiang would write back with any news. Yan's mother now hoped that her daughter-in-law would give birth to a boy, so that she would have both a son and a daughter, and she would have grandchildren.

After drinking tea and chatting for a while at Yan's house, Wen Xi and Pei Jingzhou left without waiting for Yan Zheng to come back.

After leaving Yan Zheng's house and walking to the side of the road, Wen Xi asked curiously, "Second brother, what position does Brother Qiang hold in your company? Why is he so busy? He even ignores his own parents and daughter."

"Yan Qiang is an engineer where we are, and his wife is a nurse at the base. They met and got married there. The conditions there are extremely difficult, with no food or vegetables, and it is not suitable for the growth of children. Not to mention that they can't take care of their daughter. If they had given birth to a boy, they would have sent the child back to be raised by his parents." Pei Jingzhou said.

"Second brother, what's your position?" Wen Xi was very curious. "Second brother is so capable, so his position must be high, right?"

"Junior engineer." Pei Jingzhou said.

"Wow, that's amazing! My second brother is already a junior engineer at such a young age. He will definitely be even more amazing in the future. Second brother, you must work hard so that I can benefit from you in the future." Wen Xi patted Pei Jingzhou's shoulder with a look of teachable talent.

With such a capable brother, can she just follow him and live a lazy life?

Pei Jingzhou smiled a little uncomfortably. So his sister admired him so much?

It was almost noon and the weather was getting hotter. The two of them did not stroll around the town, and Wen Xi did not buy anything. Instead, they walked back. Halfway through the journey, Pei Jingzhou was afraid that Wen Xi was too tired, so he carried her back on his back.

Ever since Wen Xi said they wanted crayfish, eels, snails and other things, Shen Jiaojiao, Jiang Yue, Zhao Yuanyuan and Zhao Huihui went out at night with flashlights and wooden barrels.

After a few days, a lot of these things had accumulated at home, so Wen Xi decided to have a party and asked Qin Mi's subordinates to help her bring more pig offal, bones, and pig's trotters that morning without tickets.

That morning, Qin Mi's subordinates brought the things over. Wen Xi and a few others picked them out, cleaned them, and then hung them in the well to cool them down.

Because the party is scheduled for the evening, it can only be processed in the afternoon. The temperature is so high now that it will probably start to stink if left in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, Lin Yiwan, Tian Shengnan, Song Lan, Zhou Bai, Wang Xinru, Gu Huaian, Li Jianguo, and Lu Mingxiu all came to help. Together, they processed crayfish, snails, and snails...

Wen Xi did not specifically ask Xu Mengying not to come, and he didn't know why Gu Huaian didn't bring Xu Mengying. It was a good thing that Xu Mengying didn't come, and Wen Xi was also afraid that this troublemaker would cause trouble for everyone.

Wang Xinru followed everyone in brushing crayfish, and suddenly she screamed while brushing. Everyone realized that she was pinched by the crayfish. Everyone couldn't help laughing. Lin Yiwan picked up the scissors and cut off the lobster claws with a click. Only then was Wang Xinru's hand freed.

Fortunately, the crayfish she caught was not a few years old, so the damage was not very great. It just turned the fish red, but the skin was not broken.

"Wang Xinru, go and draw the shrimp thread." Lin Yiwan said.

Everyone came one by one and worked together to process the crayfish. After the crayfish were processed, Wenxi went to the kitchen to cook the crayfish, while everyone continued to process the next one.

The four of them caught a lot of crayfish these days. Wen Xi paid for it and treated it as if she had bought it from them. She made the crayfish into two flavors: spicy and garlic, so as to cater to everyone's appetite.

Some people can't eat spicy food, so they can eat garlic.

There were more snails because she had started catching snails in the river bend several days in advance. Wenxi really didn't want to keep owing everyone favors and was also afraid that everyone would say she was ungrateful, so she decided to make more snails today and give a whole pot of snails to each family who visited her so that they could enjoy their meal.

Wenxi uses two pots to cook at the same time, which greatly improves work efficiency.

"Xiaoxi, are you tired? Otherwise, let me do it!" Pei Jingzhou said.

Wen Xi shook her head. "I'm fine. If I'm tired, I'll rest by myself. I'm not a fool."

After all the crayfish were cooked, Wenxi called everyone to come over and eat the crayfish, because crayfish tastes better when eaten hot. Wenxi served everyone a bowl of crayfish, and everyone found a cool place to eat.

Wang Xinru had never seen crayfish before and didn't know how to eat it. She watched Lin Yiwan peel the meat from the lobster tail and eat it, so she learned to eat it too.

After eating a few, she fell in love with it and started eating it quickly.

There were so many crayfish and there wasn't enough space at home to put them in, so Wen Xi filled a wooden basin as big as a washbasin with crayfish and asked Pei Jingzhou to accompany her to deliver it to Chang Qingqing's house next door.

They all visited her in the hospital, and later, after she returned from the hospital, they often visited them at home.

Then he sent a pot to Lin Yiwan, Ge Chenglan's family and a few other families. When there was only food for themselves left at home, he stopped sending any more.

Wenxi didn't send any to Donghua because Donghua was alone and she couldn't finish a pot of soup even if he gave her one. So Wenxi asked Donghua to come over for dinner after school in the afternoon.

Wen Xi is not short of money now, and no longer relies on these things to make money, so naturally she doesn't mind letting everyone know that these things are edible. Moreover, she only gave crayfish to a few families, so if a few more people knew that crayfish were edible, it wouldn't have any impact on them.

Afterwards, Wenxi started to cook snails. There were a lot of snails in a pot, so after making a pot, Wenxi and Pei Jingzhou hurriedly served it to everyone so that everyone could eat the snails while they were hot.
