After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes

When Chen Lihong saw Lin Zhiqing coming over, she said earnestly, "Lin Zhiqing, let me tell you, we're having a comfortable holiday this time, but after this period, the autumn harvest will begin. It will be busy and tiring then, and we won't be able to take leave. You need to be careful then."

So as soon as Chen Lihong had some free time, she quickly called Yueyao and they went out to find wild fruits to satisfy their cravings and relax as much as they could.

After all, giving the commune members a holiday now is to give them time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy the items they need.

For the next month, the villagers would not be able to leave the village. It would be busy then, and it would be even more difficult to ask for leave.

Yueyao and Chen Lihong searched for wild fruits until noon, and their baskets were full of wild fruits and vegetables.

The two of them had relatively few wild vegetables in their baskets, since nowadays everyone has plenty of vegetables to eat, and most of the wild vegetables are used to feed pigs.

Yueyao looked at the blazing sun and felt very hot, so she suggested, "Lihong, why don't we rest by the river? It's really too hot today."

Why don't we rest here by the river? It'll help us escape the sun. There's a big tree here, and there are places to sit under it—very convenient.

Chen Lihong glanced at the increasingly scorching sky and nodded hastily.

"Wow, it's so cool here. There's water and big trees, and a cool breeze. It's just so refreshing!"

Seeing the happy little girl, Yueyao smiled and nodded.

Then, Yueyao remembered that she had brought some biscuits with her when she came out, so she took out the biscuits wrapped in newspaper from her bag and handed two to Lihong.

Lihong stared at the cookies, her mouth watering, but she still waved her hand and said, "No need to give them to me, you can eat them yourself. Cookies are expensive."

Since Yueyao had handed it over, she must have genuinely wanted to give it to her, so she pushed it towards Lihong, saying, "Hurry up and take it. If you don't eat it, I'll feel bad eating it. Hurry up, hurry up."

Lihong had no choice but to accept it and thank him.

Thinking of the delicious dried sweet potatoes at home, Lihong couldn't help but pat her chest and promise, "My mom's dried sweet potatoes are so delicious, sweet and sticky. I'll secretly bring some back for you when I go back."

Yueyao shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, I gave you cookies, not so you could steal your family's dried sweet potatoes. If your mother misunderstands and thinks I instigated you, wouldn't I become a sinner?"

"Oh, is it that serious?" Li Hong looked unconcerned. Her mother doted on her, and as long as she asked, she was sure to get it.

Yueyao nodded happily, "You just came out with me today, and you're already asking your mother for dried sweet potatoes when we get back? Won't your mother be worried?"

“My mother isn’t that petty. She wouldn’t think that way. Don’t overthink it.”

"I don't know if she'll overthink it, but I will. Here's a cookie, just eat it and don't keep thinking about how to get something else."

Seeing this, Lihong stopped pressing the matter and thought to herself that since Lin was such a kind person, she could help her out when she was tired from work.

However, Lihong still picked out a few good wild melons she found, washed them by the stream, and brought them back to eat with Lin Zhiqing.

Looking at the wild sweet potato, which was about the size of her fist, Yueyao asked doubtfully, "I heard the aunties in the village say that eating this wild sweet potato will cause a sow to go crazy. Is that true?"

Looking at Yueyao's adorable expression, Lihong found it somewhat amusing. "They're not talking about this. It's something else, something that looks a lot like a wild sweet potato, but you can't eat it."

"The sweet potato I'm giving you was picked from the tree root. If you break it open and there's a sweet center inside, then it's edible. If there's no sweet center, then it's not edible."

"Actually, this kind of wild melon is big and edible, but the taste is a bit bland. There is also a smaller kind that grows on the ground, close to the ground, and that kind tastes better, it's soft, sweet and fragrant."

After Li Hong finished speaking, she ignored Yue Yao's hesitation, ate a bite of sweet potato and a bite of biscuit, and swayed her shoulders contentedly.

After eating and drinking her fill, Lihong looked at the crystal-clear stream in front of her and decided to go swimming.

It's so hot now, taking a shower would definitely be refreshing.

She looked around, thinking that since this place was so far from the village, probably no one would come.

So he suggested to Yueyao, "Lin Zhiqing, shall we go swimming in the river?"

Yueyao dared not. "It's not appropriate for two girls to take a shower in broad daylight. What if someone sees us?"

Lihong, however, was eager to try. "It's the height of the sun now, and no one in the village will come out. We just need to wash quickly."

Yueyao shook her head, but seeing Chen Lihong's eager expression, she could only say:

"Why don't you go first and I'll keep an eye on things for you? After you're done, I'll go wash up. And while you're at it, can you keep an eye on the surroundings for me, okay?"

"Huh? Washing one by one is so boring. Washing together as a couple means you can play in the water a little longer."

Seeing that Yueyao still wouldn't budge, Chen Lihong muttered, "Fine, I'll go wash up first."

Yueyao nodded. "Then I'll go to the intersection to keep watch for you. If anyone comes, I'll run over and tell you right away."

There's only one narrow path leading in; the rest of the area is dense forest.

The villagers dared not easily enter the woods, after all, there were wild boars there, and large animals could be dangerous.

Moreover, the upper and lower reaches of this stream are very desolate, with weeds growing very tall, and no one would ever emerge from these places.

To be honest, if Yueyao were alone, she really wouldn't dare to go into the river.

She heard from the villagers that there were water snakes in the river, and if she was bitten by one, there would be no hope of recovery.

After taking a shower, Chen Lihong came over and told Yueyao to go take a shower, patting her chest to assure her, "Don't worry, Lin Zhiqing, I'll watch over you from the front, so you can shower without worry."

So when it was Yueyao's turn, she only dared to wash herself in the shallows.

Yueyao looked back again, still worried, and saw that Chen Lihong was indeed staying there obediently, helping to guard the other end of the path.

Only then did she feel relieved enough to take off her clothes. But as soon as she finished taking off her top, she remembered something and went back to the tree to look for her basket.

Yueyao suddenly remembered the soapberry fruits she had just picked from the soapberry tree. The rice of the young soapberry fruits could be eaten, and the older soapberry fruits could be used to wash clothes and hair.

The fruit of the soapberry contains active ingredients such as saponins and triterpenoid saponins, which have good surface activity, foaming properties and certain detergent and stain removal abilities.

It is a natural and safe detergent that can be used to make shampoos and other personal care products.

So when Yueyao saw soap pods, she picked a lot of them, thinking she could take them home to wash her hair and clothes.

She wanted to take advantage of the water and the soap pods to wash her hair, as she hadn't washed it for several days.

Why don't you take a shower now?
