Just like last year, the mushrooms were placed at the foot of the mountain, Wenxi went there at night to weigh them, and then put the money in the things they each used to hold the mushrooms.

Wen Xi collected the mushrooms before Qin Mi came at night, and in the morning after Qin Mi left, he quickly collected the crayfish and eels that Shen Jiaojiao and the other three had caught at night, making them think that the things had been sold by Wen Xi.

The school was on vacation, so Jin Changqing naturally had her vacation as well. She went back to live in Fengshou Brigade and did not stay there to take care of Gu Yuanshan. Although they remarried, the rift was irreparable. Jin Changqing did not want to take care of him in every detail like before. She wanted to live her own life.

After returning to the village, Jin Changqing started going up the mountain to pick mushrooms, pick wild vegetables, and chop firewood. He was busy every day, hoping to heal the scars in his heart.

Few people can accept being betrayed by their most trusted friend, right?

Life in the countryside was so comfortable that Jin Changqing's mood gradually calmed down, but she would never forget those things.

On this day, Yan's mother brought Yan Lili to the countryside, but they were not looking for Wen Xi, but Jiang Yue. After all, Jiang Yue was Yan Zheng's girlfriend, so it was normal for them to come to find Jiang Yue.

"Jiang Yue, Lili said she wanted to come to the village to play for a few days, so I sent Lili here. I'm sorry to trouble you these days!" said Yan's mother.

"Aunt Yan, Lili is very well behaved. I don't need to worry about her. She's not a bother." Jiang Yue pulled Lili and told her, "Lili, it's okay for you to go to the village to play, but you can't go to the river with children. If you fall in, there's no one around you, and you're very likely to drown. You'll never see your grandparents and your parents again. So no matter who takes you to the river, you can't go. Do you understand?"

"Sister Jiang Yue, I understand. I won't go to any dangerous place." Yan Lili promised. After all, a primary school child would not be so ignorant.

"Lili, you must listen to Sister Jiang Yue. Your parents will be back in a while. You don't want to never see your parents again, do you?" Yan's mother threatened.

If Lili hadn't insisted on coming to the countryside to play, Yan's mother would never have brought her to the countryside to play. Although it was boring to stay at home, it was always safer than in the countryside.

There are mountains, water and trees in the countryside. It is really dangerous for children to climb up and down. Most importantly, there are people with bad intentions.

Sometimes other things are not dangerous, but people are.

"Aunt Yan, I will also tell other children who play with us not to take Lili to dangerous places." Babysitting a child for someone else is also a very dangerous thing.

If you take good care of it, people won't thank you.

If you don't take good care of them, they will hate you.

But now Yan's mother has sent Yan Lili here, Jiang Yue can only let Yan Lili play here for a few days, and she will go back naturally after she has had enough fun.

Wen Xi returned home and saw Yan's mother and Yan Lili coming. She was a little surprised, "Aunt Yan, Lili, you are here?"

"Sister Xiaoxi." Yan Lili ran to Wenxi and looked at her with sparkling eyes.

Wen Xi saved Yan Lili, and Yan Lili felt a special sense of closeness to Wen Xi.

Wen Xi smiled and said, "I'll go pick some cucumbers for you."

Wenxi went to the well to wash his hands and face, then took a basket to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables. Mother Yan wanted to bring some back for her when she left in the afternoon, so he picked more.

Cowpea, cucumber, tomato, green pepper, eggplant, water spinach...

You can eat them all.

Wen Xi quickly picked a full basket, came to the well, took out some for lunch, and asked Yan's mother to take the rest back.

Wen Xi washed the vegetables for lunch, took a large cucumber, cut it in half, and gave it to Yan Lili, asking Yan Lili to take it and eat it with her grandmother.

The cucumbers grown by himself are crisp and refreshing, full of fragrance, and taste better than real fruits. Wenxi also likes to eat raw cucumbers. Sometimes when he cooks with cucumbers, he uses the cucumbers he exchanged from Lin Yiwan.

Wenxi started cooking when she came to the kitchen. She would not cheat today. She would eat whatever was available at home. After all, everyone knew what kind of life the country people lived. If she cooked too well, it would make people feel strange.

However, Yan's mother brought a piece of meat, so Wenxi divided the meat into two, using half to make stir-fried meat with green peppers and the other half to make stir-fried meat with cowpeas, stir-fried water spinach, braised eggplant, smashed cucumber, and tomato and egg soup.

Five dishes and one soup are enough.

After Shen Jiaojiao came back, everyone sat down to have lunch. Yan's mother also told everyone that Yan Lili wanted to stay here for a few days. Because this time it was Jiang Yue instead of Wen Xi who was looking for her, Wen Xi did not express any opinion. It was enough for Jiang Yue to agree. However, taking care of the child is a heavy responsibility and you can't take your eyes off it. Besides, the child is lively and active. It can only be said that Jiang Yue will be very tired these days.

Just after dinner, Yan Lili pulled Jiang Yue and insisted on going out to catch cicadas. Listening to the cicadas chirping in the trees outside, Yan Lili was already excited.

Although he is already in primary school and is a little sensible, he is not as obedient and sensible as adults after all.

Jiang Yue had no choice but to get a bamboo pole to make a small tool to catch cicadas. She could just stick it on the cicada and it would get caught. Then Jiang Yue put on a straw hat and took Yan Lili out to catch cicadas in the scorching sun.

Wenxi took the bamboo bed down from the wall of the utility room, washed it with clean water, wiped off the water on it, and then let Yan's mother take a nap. Now was the hottest time of the day, and it was not safe to go out, especially for middle-aged and elderly people. If they fainted outside due to heatstroke and were not discovered in time, they would really be sunburned to death.

After a long while, Jiang Yue and Yan Lili came back. Although they were wearing straw hats, their faces were still red from the sun, like pig livers.

"Did you catch the cicada?" Wen Xi handed the Liangbai start to Jiang Yue and asked curiously.

Jiang Yue took the cup and drank it in big gulps. The child had great stamina, was very spirited, and was very stubborn. She was almost unable to hold on any longer.

Fortunately, she caught a cicada, otherwise she wouldn’t know when she would be able to come back!

Yan Lili excitedly came to Wenxi holding a cicada and said happily, "Sister Xiaoxi, Sister Jiang Yue caught a cicada for me, and it can still chirp!"

Yan Lili squeezed her hand gently, and the cicada started chirping in her hand, which was particularly harsh.

"Lili, your grandma is taking a nap, don't wake her up." Wen Xi reminded, "Lili, do you want to take a nap with your sister Xiaoyue and have a good rest? Look at your face, it's so red from the sun. You'll be tanned in a few days. What if your parents don't recognize you when they come back?"
