Eating melons

Seeing this, the few of them stopped chatting and hurried down the mountain. All four of them carried people on their backs along the way, and took a detour when they heard any sound.

It was almost seven o'clock when they finally reached the foot of the mountain. It was already dark. Wei Wei and Jiang Qi fell twice while going down the mountain.

Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu were holding things and couldn't see, so it was difficult to hold them back.

Fortunately, I just fell down and didn't roll down.

When we reached the foot of the mountain, we could at least see some traces of the road in the faint moonlight.

Wei Wei panted and said, "Do you want to go in or wait here? If you wait here, Jiang Qi and I will bring you a flashlight and a cart."

Xiao Xuemu: "Li Zhibin is waiting here. I'll take you two back and get your things. It's late at night, it's not safe for you two girls. Put down the backpack and I'll carry it."

Wei Wei: ...

Jiang Qi: ...

You probably forgot about your hand. Although it doesn’t hurt much anymore, it still seems to be red.

However, the two did not refuse, because they really could not carry the basket anymore. Their shoulders had been so painful that they had lost all feeling, and they were just holding on until now.

The two of them quickly put down their backpacks and walked home in the dark.

Yu Xi and Liu Jiaojiao heard the noise and hurried out of Wu Mei's house.

Seeing the three of them, Yu Xi breathed a sigh of relief. "You're finally back! If you hadn't come back, I would have thought something had happened to you! Hey! Where's Li Zhibin?"

Xiao Xuemu: "Li Zhibin is in the back, let's stop talking for now, we haven't had dinner yet!"

Yu Xi nodded, "You guys are busy."

After saying that, he went home with Liu Jiaojiao.

Xiao Xuemu put the things for them at Jiang Qi's house and went back to get them.

Wei Wei looked at his back and said to Jiang Qi, "Is there any hot water in your thermos?"

Jiang Qi: "Also, it's full, what's wrong?"

Wei Wei: "It looks like they're going to stay up all night again tonight. I'll buy two new kettles. You fill them with water, and I'll buy them some food."

After all, these are two thick thighs, it would be tiring to hold them.

After saying that, he quickly bought two military water bottles from the 1960s and handed them to Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi took it, rinsed it with water, and went to fill it with hot water. The temperature at night was still quite low, so it was better to fill it with more hot water.

Wei Wei quickly searched for pastries from the 1960s, and finally bought a pound of chestnut cake, a pound of egg cake and a pound of biscuits.

There was no other way. She didn't know what else to eat to fill her stomach.

Seeing some canned food, I bought two more cans of meat.

Jiang Qi filled the water. Wei Wei saw Xiao Xuemu still pushing the cart, so she hurriedly took the things and handed them over.

Wei Wei: "Here are some egg cakes, chestnut cakes, biscuits, and two cans of meat. You won't be able to eat tonight, so take these to fill your stomach on the way. Here are two bottles of hot water. This kettle is new and unused."

Seeing Wei Wei like this, Xiao Xuemu felt touched. "Thank you. I'll come back tomorrow to give you the money."

Wei Wei waved her hand, "Forget it! I already got a sheep today. By the way, do you have enough flashlights? I hope they won't run out of power halfway through!"

Xiao Xuemu: "That's enough, no, I'm leaving first, Li Zhibin is still waiting!"

Wei Wei: "Go! Go!"

After saying that, they also went to Jiang Qi's house. As soon as they got home, they immediately closed the door, pulled the door curtain, pulled the curtains, and turned on the desk lamp.

Looking at the two full baskets of meat, most of the fatigue in their bodies disappeared.

Wei Wei sighed, "Oh! It's a pity that it can't be kept fresh. There's so much stuff that we can't finish it! It's not easy to make bacon and smoke it."

Jiang Qi: "You can make it into dried meat, or meat sauce. Fried rabbit, add chili and salt, and store it in a sealed jar. It can be eaten for a long time.

It’s getting late now and I need to take a shower, so I’ll just have a quick bite tonight and deal with these things tomorrow night.”

Wei Wei nodded. "Okay, let's just eat something tonight! I still have a lot of noodles here. You can cook first. I'll go back and get some water."

After saying that, he gave the powder to Jiang Qi and went back to get some water to boil for a bath.

I ran in the mountains all day today and carried mutton all the way. I have a bit of smell on my body and I feel uncomfortable if I don’t take a shower.

He also fell twice, and his clothes and pants were covered with dirt and grass.

Although it was just a quick bite, Jiang Qi still made some mutton sauce. The two were so hungry that they each ate two large bowls.

Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin were also very hungry. Li Zhibin was surprised when he saw the hot water and cakes and biscuits that Xiao Xuemu brought.

Li Zhibin: "Hey! Brother Xiao, when did you become so thoughtful? I thought we were going to starve tonight, and there are canned meats, what a luxury."

Xiao Xuemu handed him the things and said, "Wei Wei prepared this. There's water in the kettle. Wash your hands."

Li Zhibin was even more surprised when he heard that it was Wei Wei who prepared it. "Okay, fall down."

Xiao Xuemu poured water for Li Zhibin with a flashlight. As soon as the water reached his hands, Li Zhibin had no time to dodge.

"Hiss! Oh my god, I'm scalding! Is this boiling water?"

Xiao Xuemu stopped immediately when he saw Li Zhibin was scalded. Fortunately, he didn't pour much. "I don't know? Wei Wei said it was hot water, I didn't expect it was boiling water."

Li Zhibin: ...

Li Zhibin stumbled over the dishes as they started eating. After a tiring day, he had a bowl of noodles in the morning and a large meal at noon, but he was already starving.

The two of them ate quickly and anxiously. The food Wei Wei prepared was relatively dry, and the water Jiang Qi poured was all boiling water. Even after the lid was removed, it did not cool down quickly.

So the two of them had a bumpy dinner, but neither of them said anything. It was good enough to have something to eat, so there was no need to be picky.

Besides, these things are all good things. Ordinary people would not even dare to taste them, so only the two of them would eat them as meals.

Not to mention canned meat, but I have to say, eating canned meat like this is really a bit greasy.

After they finished eating, they hurried on their way to the town.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi didn't care about the dishes after they finished eating, and quickly took a shower. After taking a shower, they didn't care about their clothes and went to bed.

As for the rest, we’ll talk about it tomorrow.

The next day, Wei Wei slept until ten o'clock and woke up because she was hungry. She got up, opened the door and looked at Jiang Qi. There was no movement and no smoke in the chimney. He must not have gotten up yet.

I didn’t want to make breakfast, so I just bought some frozen buns and steamed them.

Wei Wei, who had nothing to do, was stunned for a while, and suddenly remembered that she did not go to Wu Cuihua's house to exchange ginseng yesterday.

I immediately bought everything Wu Cuihua wanted, including the watch Xiao Xuemu wanted.

After making the purchase, Wei Wei felt heartbroken when she saw the heavily discounted deposit.

Thinking about the fact that the price of ginseng has improved a little, she now just hopes that the value of the things she gets in exchange for this batch of watches can be quadrupled, so that her savings can exceed 50,000.
