Eating melons

Jiang Qi paused, thinking of Xue Yu who was sent by her father to support the Northwest. She had forgotten about this, "There should be more!

You have to know that in the team, Yu Xi is more famous than Xiao Xuemu, the guy with the golden finger. Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu are far less popular than Yu Xi. "

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi also found it funny when they thought about the reputation of Xiao Xuemu and Li Zhibin in the team.

In the team, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu have the same reputation as them. Everyone in the team shakes their heads when they talk about them. They are not capable of anything. It's simply outrageous.

Qiu Shou, who was behind Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, was rubbing corn kernels. Although they were criticized for being a waste of money for rubbing them with their Liberation Shoes, there was nothing else to complain about. After all, they both worked hard, went the earliest and came back the latest, so apart from being a little wasteful, there was nothing else to complain about.

But for some reason, Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu seemed to have encountered something. Even though they worked very hard and earned no less than ten work points every day, their reputation became worse and worse.

Maybe I was slacking off too much before, so I only got seven or eight work points every day, which is very good in other teams.

But the Red Star Brigade is vast, and boys of their age generally grow no less than ten centimeters a day. Even Yu Xi still grows ten centimeters a day after he becomes proficient.

You have to know that there were a lot of women in the team who earned ten work points a day, so even though the two of them worked hard every day later, their reputation did not improve. Instead, it further confirmed that they were lazy before.

But they don't care about this kind of reputation at all.

Both of them thought that it would be better to use this energy to make money, which is much more valuable than the few work points they earn, and their attitude is also very good.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi stopped chatting after breakfast and hurried to dry the mushrooms.

Liu Jiaojiao and Yu Xi had also gotten up and were preparing to go to Wu Mei's house for breakfast.

As for Li Zhibin and Xiao Xuemu, they were already having breakfast when Jiang Qi went to deliver the soup. Now they have already left the house. It is most likely that they went to the black market.

As for the few old educated youth next to them, the door was closed and they had not yet gotten up.

Liu Jiaojiao, who had just left the house, came over to greet Wei Wei when she saw her. "Weiwei, are you guys leaving? So early? We haven't had breakfast yet! Can you wait for us? We'll be quick."

Wei Wei: "We'll finish drying these and then go to the captain's house. Let's go there and wait. It wouldn't be nice to keep them waiting. If you guys want to go, just come over as soon as you're done eating. We don't leave so early."

Wei Wei os: If you were waiting, you would know to ask. I didn’t see you ask us yesterday.

Although Wei Wei had a smiling face, she was still complaining in her heart. Although her resentment towards the three people who went to the town yesterday and didn't even say hello to them was not big, it was also quite strong.

Liu Jiaojiao didn't know what Wei Wei was thinking, so she nodded and said, "Okay."

After saying that, they hurried back to eat. Wei Wei and Jiang Qi also took their equipment and walked towards the captain's house.

"Wei girl, Jiang girl, it's quite early!"

As soon as Liu Aiying saw Wei Wei and Jiang Qi, she greeted them with a smile, her mouth stretched from ear to ear.

How could I not be happy? Yesterday afternoon, the three little ones and her eldest daughter-in-law earned a pound of candy in one afternoon, which is just enough candy for the Chinese New Year. I just don’t know if they will buy any today.

Jiang Qi: "It's getting late, Auntie, what are you drying?"

It looks pitch black and a bit scary. Can this thing be eaten?

Liu Aiying: "This is the cucumber cracked from being sun-dried!"

Wei Wei could see how this thing had something in common with cucumbers.

Wei Wei: “Why is this black?”

Is it edible? But she didn't dare to say that.

Liu Aiying: "This is wood ash. Cucumber slices wrapped in wood ash stay emerald green after drying and don't change color."

When Wei Wei and Jiang Qi heard Liu Aiying say that it was wrapped in wood ash, the only three words in their minds were "Is it edible?". Wood ash is quite clean, but it looks a bit dirty.

Liu Aiying: "By the way, are you guys still going to exchange for mushroom pine cones today?"

Jiang Qi shook his head and said, "No need to change."

Liu Aiying was a little disappointed when she heard this, but it was fine after a while. After all, Liu Yun and Jiang Qi had bought enough, and they would definitely buy more next year.

Jiang Qi: "We can just buy the dried ones from Auntie! We spent all night cleaning up those two bags last night. It was such a hassle. If Auntie still has any dried mushrooms, pine nuts, acorns, or chestnuts, please leave some for us. We'll send some back home too."

Liu Aiying became very happy when she heard this. Although there wouldn't be much of this stuff left at home, every family has a few relatives!

Liu Aiying: "Okay, Auntie will make sure it's clean, and we'll have as much as you want. Just wait a moment, I'll be ready soon, you can leave now."

After saying that, he clapped his hands and went to wash his hands. Several daughters-in-law of the Zhang family also came out with things.

The Zhang family's daughters-in-law all had smiles on their faces. One reason was because of the candies they earned yesterday, and another reason was because they also heard what Jiang Qi said just now.

The three little brats were even worse. After hearing what Jiang Qi said, they went back and each took an extra sack with them.

After Liu Aiying closed the gate, Wu Mei and the other two came over carrying baskets on their backs.

Yu Xi quickly stepped forward to greet them, "Aunt Liu, I heard you're going up the mountain to pick mushrooms. Can we come with you?"

Liu Aiying waved her hand and said, "It's no big deal. Just follow along."

After all, with the way they work, how many can they pick? And most of what they pick are poisonous. It won't be a problem at all to take them with them. Maybe there will be a surprise like what happened to Jiang Qi and Wei Wei yesterday. Who knows, they may be able to exchange for a lot of good things.

However, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi performed very well yesterday. It was their first time picking, and although they were a little slow and there were fewer mountain products, she rummaged through their backpacks and didn't see any poisonous ones.

Yu Xi: "Thank you, Aunt Liu."

Liu Aiying looked at the three of their backpacks, which were empty except for a water bottle.

Liu Aiying: "You go up the mountain without sacks or food?"

Yu Xi: "Dry food? Aren't we going to be back at noon?"

Liu Aiying: "You're definitely not coming back from such a long journey. How are you going to pack your things without sacks?"

Yu Xi had also seen the mushrooms that Wei Wei and Jiang Qi had dried in the sun that morning. It looked like there were indeed quite a few on the mountain, so he said to Wu Mei and Liu Jiaojiao, "I'm going to go back and get the sacks and some food. You guys go ahead, I'll catch up later."

Wu Mei: "Here, here's my key. There's a lot of food in the pot, take it all!"

Yu Xi: "Okay."

After saying that, he took the key and ran home quickly.
