After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life

Her thoughts drifted back to last year's autumn harvest, and she remembered that they had lunch together at that time, with Shen Xiaoxia, Han Zhuxin, and Zhao Lingling each taking a turn.

But breakfast and dinner are more flexible, everyone cooks their own!

Shen Xiaoxia turned around and asked softly, "Do we still have to eat lunch together this year?"

In fact, in her heart, she prefers to eat it alone. She has stock in her space, and she can also prepare it in the evening and put it in the space to eat the next day!

She can eat better and have some time to rest!

But the team leader did not allow each of them to come back and burn it themselves, saying that the autumn harvest time was tight and the task was heavy, and going back and forth would waste too many working hours!

They were just allowed to discuss among themselves and form a partnership. One person was chosen every day to come back early to prepare lunch. After eating, they didn’t have time to rest and had to go back to work immediately!

Zhao Lingling twirled her hair with her fingers, pondered for a moment, and said, "We should all be together. How should we divide it this year? Or should we just be partners?"

Last year, they were the only ones firing alone in the backyard, but this year, He Tingyuan, Xie Yunheng and Qi Yue are here too!

Usually He Tingyuan cooks and eats with Xie Yunheng, and Qi Yue cooks and eats with Gu Xiaomei.

Han Zhuxin thought of He Tingyuan, "Let's just leave it to the three of us first and see if they come looking for us later!

If you're looking for one, then we can go together. If you're not looking, then you should make your own arrangements!"

Shen Xiaoxia and Zhao Lingling looked at each other, felt that this made sense, and nodded. Let's take it one step at a time and see what happens!

The days passed quickly, and after two days, the team leader did not specifically say that he wanted to give us a holiday, but the work assigned to each team was not as much as before.

Like a brief respite before the big battle!

He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng specifically looked for Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin and asked them if they could eat with them during the autumn harvest.

They have a conflict with the front yard and don’t want to partner with them anymore!

If I do it myself, the team leader probably won't agree. During the busy autumn harvest season, everything must obey the collective arrangements!

After the two discussed privately, they wanted to ask Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin if they could team up together.

When the time comes, chopping wood and fetching water will be their responsibility.

Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin asked Zhao Lingling, who didn't think it mattered, and then they agreed that they would eat together.

Everyone brings their own rations and delivers them in advance to the person who will cook the next day.

Considering the intensity of work during the autumn harvest, everyone discussed it and decided that since there were two bicycles, they would take leave in groups of two to go to the county town.

He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng are in one group, Zhao Fan and Zhao Lingling are in one group, and Shen Xiaoxia is in one group with Han Zhuxin.

He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng will go tomorrow, Zhao Fan and Zhao Lingling will go the day after tomorrow, and Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin will go the day after the day after that.

The next morning, He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng rode their bikes to the county town. When Shen Xiaoxia got up, they had already left.

Shen Xiaoxia planned to make some scallion pancakes for breakfast.

The noodles had been fermented in advance last night and had been given space. After taking them out, I stirred them with chopsticks to expel the air inside.

Wash a few green onions, chop them, and pour them into the batter.

Then add some salt and pepper and mix well.

After lighting the fire, wash the pot with clean water, wait until the pot is dry, and then add an appropriate amount of oil.

Use a spoon to scoop a spoonful of batter into the pan, fry until one side is golden brown, then turn over and fry the other side.

Shen Xiaoxia prepared the batter and baked ten pancakes in total. She planned to eat three of them in the morning and put the rest in the space so that she could take them out when she wanted to eat them later!

Take a bite, the crust is just the right crispness, and the "crunch" sound echoes between your teeth.

The soft and elastic dough inside is perfectly blended with the fresh chopped green onions. The wheat aroma and green onion aroma of the dough complement and blend with each other.

The sweetness and spiciness of the chopped green onions are not pungent, adding a touch of brightness to the overall taste.

The pancakes were not small, and after eating three of them, Shen Xiaoxia was already very full!

Eat and drink enough, then go out to work!

Two days passed like this, and He Tingyuan, Xie Yunheng, Zhao Fan, and Zhao Lingling all returned from the county town with the stockpiles.

Considering that she and Han Zhuxin would go to the county town early tomorrow morning, Shen Xiaoxia went to bed early after signing in in the evening!

When they woke up, it was still dark, so they agreed to go to the county town early to have breakfast.

After getting up, Shen Xiaoxia tiptoed to the door of Han Zhuxin's room, bent her fingers slightly, and knocked on the door gently. She was afraid of waking up other people, so she didn't knock loudly!

"Xia Xia? I'm awake!" Han Zhuxin's crisp response soon came from the room. The voice was a bit lazy. It was obvious that she had just woken up and was ready to get up!

Seeing Han Zhuxin agreed, Shen Xiaoxia returned to her room with peace of mind, quickly washed up, and changed into clean and simple clothes!

After everything was packed up, the two of them pushed their bicycles and carried backpacks out of the gate of the Youth League Institute.

The dawn was just breaking, and the sky was just beginning to show a faint paleness. The whole village was still immersed in sleep, and no one had gotten up yet!

Riding the bike, the wheels slowly rolled over the country road, where the soil was wet with last night's dew, making a slight "crunching" sound.

The breeze is like a soft veil, caressing the faces of the two people, carrying the unique fresh scent of the fields, penetrating into the heart and making people feel relaxed and happy!

There was no one on the road at this moment. Although the road was not particularly wide, it was wide enough for two people to ride side by side.

Han Zhuxin took a deep breath and sighed, "This morning air still smells very refreshing!"

Shen Xiaoxia also followed Han Zhuxin's example and took a deep breath, feeling the breeze passing by her ears.

It is not as fierce and strong as a gale, but carries a gentleness and leisurely feeling that is unique to summer mornings.

It gently carries the fragrance of grass and trees in the fields, the scent of soil, and a little bit of moisture left over from last night.

Putting aside other things for now, Shen Xiaoxia is still very satisfied with the air quality at this moment.

After riding for a while, they came to an uphill section and had to straighten their bodies and pedal hard.

The heavy breathing was particularly clear and audible on the silent road. The two looked at each other and saw a bit of helplessness and stubbornness in each other's eyes. For a moment, they even wanted to laugh, but they were afraid that after laughing, they would relax and have no strength to ride, so they endured it!

After finally riding through that section of road, Han Zhuxin breathed a sigh of relief. "I finally made it up. It wasn't easy! Every time I go to the county town, this is the road I hate the most. Whether I ride a bike or walk, it's tiring!"

Shen Xiaoxia smiled, "I was tired coming here, but it's so refreshing going back. This way back, without the brakes, I feel like I can fly!"

After riding all the way to the county town, the two went straight to the state-owned hotel!

Shen Xiaoxia ordered a bowl of dumplings and four meat buns.

Eat dumplings in the morning and pack the meat buns to take home.

I originally wanted to pack ten, but because Han Zhuxin was there and the weather was too hot, if I packed too many, they would easily go bad when I got home, and I wouldn’t be able to explain it.

Han Zhuxin ordered a bowl of wontons and packed four meat buns, planning to eat two each for lunch and dinner.

She ate wontons, looked at Shen Xiaoxia, and lowered her voice and said, "Xia Xia, can you go and take a look at the embroidery again today?"

Even though Han Zhuxin didn't say anything, Shen Xiaoxia also planned to go and nodded, "Yeah, I was planning to go anyway!"

The autumn harvest is coming soon, and I probably won’t be able to take leave during the harvest period. I haven’t been able to come to the county town for nearly two months. Now that I’m here, I’ll go visit my mother-in-law!

By the way, send a letter back home.

After dinner, the two of them still went their separate ways and then met up at the supply and marketing cooperative!
