The food was all left over from lunch. Xu Rongrong simply heated it up and cooked some porridge in the evening. The four of them sat down and started eating.
Zhan Yiyang didn't talk much. After dinner, he got up and went back to study herbal medicine.
Xu Rongrong was afraid that Lin Chen would think too much, so he told Lin Chen: "He's just like that. You guys will get used to it after a while. Don't pay attention to him. I'll ask him in the evening when Ye Jing's illness will start to be treated."
"I know." Lin Chen took Ye Jing back. Xu Rongrong washed the dishes, washed some fruits, and sent them to Lin Chen and Ye Jing.
Lin Chen went back and was washing Ye Jing's feet. Xu Rongrong stood at the door, knocked on the door, and called Lin Chen: "Lin Chen, I washed some fruits. Ye Jing should like to eat them. I left them at the door. Come out and get them."
Go back, lest it become dusty in a while."
In fact, Lin Chen's house is not lacking in anything, it can be said that it has everything.
There is even running water, and Xu Rongrong is completely unnecessary for washing fruits.
But Xu Rongrong was just worried, thinking that if he didn't deliver it, he would be worried that Lin Chen wouldn't pick it up.
After all, I have just arrived here and I am not used to anything yet. I just need to take care of him for a few days and he will be fine.
Xu Rongrong put down the fruits and left. When Lin Chen came out, there was a bowl full of fruits at the door, including apples and pears, and grapes in bunches.
Lin Chen bent down and picked up the fruit. There was so much, how many days would it take to finish it?
Lin Chen turned around and went back. Xu Rongrong saw Lin Chen going back, so she turned around and went back.
After entering the door, Xu Rongrong went to see Zhan Yiyang, who was already asleep.
After taking off his clothes, Xu Rongrong went to wash his feet, then got into the quilt and went to sleep when he came back.
As soon as he put it on, Zhan Yiyang opened his eyes. In fact, Zhan Yiyang didn't sleep either. He just closed his eyes and thought about something while waiting for Xu Rongrong.
When Xu Rongrong came back, Zhan Yiyang knew that as soon as he got under the quilt, Zhan Yiyang got up from behind and hugged Xu Rongrong.
Knowing that Zhan Yiyang was not asleep, Xu Rongrong raised his hand and touched Zhan Yiyang's arm, then turned around and looked at Zhan Yiyang.
"When are you going to treat Ye Jing?" Hearing Xu Rongrong say, Zhan Yiyang turned over, lay down and closed his eyes.
Xu Rongrong was puzzled for a while, could you please say something, it's not good if you hang people up like this.
Under the quilt, Xu Rongrong stretched out his hand, and Zhan Yiyang's enchanted eyes opened again and glanced at Xu Rongrong. Xu Rongrong was busy kissing Zhan Yiyang.
Zhan Yiyang raised his hand and turned off the light. Xu Rongrong was busy begging for mercy, but unfortunately it was too late.
Lin Chen got up early the next day. Zhan Yiyang came out to watch the wine. Lin Chen also passed by and handed Ye Jing over to Xu Rongrong.
Xu Rongrong said she could just watch and talk to Ye Jing by the way.
Not long after Lin Chen left, Ye Jing became restless and wandered around the kitchen, refusing to stay in the kitchen and saying she wanted to go out.
Lin Chen came back not long after. Lin Chen was not worried about who to hand Ye Jing over to, so he took him over again.
Zhan Yiyang was looking at his drink. Lin Chen's meaning was very simple. I don't want to eat and drink for free. I will do something for you. You can help me cure Ye Jing's disease.
After hearing this for a long time, Zhan Yiyang turned around and glanced at Lin Chen: "How do you want to treat it? What can you do?"
"You can treat it however you want. There are so many things to do here, and I can do them all." Lin Chen didn't want to be looked down upon by Zhan Yiyang, nor did he want to live for free.
Zhan Yiyang took a sip of the wine, put it down, and walked around looking at it without saying anything.
Lin Chen asked from behind: "Can you please say something?"
"Ye Jing's illness needs to be recuperated first. I'll give Ye Jing some medicine to see the effect." He turned around and left Zhan Yiyang. Lin Chen followed from behind: "What about me?"
"The wine vat is washed once a week. If you have nothing to do, wash it." Zhan Yiyang went to prepare for dinner, and Lin Chen took Ye Jing to see the wine vat.
After counting, there were more than a hundred in total. After excluding the used ones, there were still more than forty.
After dinner, Lin Chen took Ye Jing out, filled the yard with water, and started washing the wine jars.
When Xu Rongrong saw that posture, he couldn't help but go to Zhan Yiyang, but the two of them quarreled over such a trivial matter.
What Xu Rongrong means is that they are not here to be your slaves. If you ask them to do this, are you so stingy?
Zhan Yiyang didn't say anything and just did his own thing. No matter how Xu Rongrong discussed it with him, he remained unmoved. Xu Rongrong had no choice but to go outside to help.
Lin Chen wanted to do something, and if Ye Jing stayed quiet nearby, wouldn't it cause trouble for Lin Chen?
Xu Rongrong went out to talk to Ye Jing. Ye Jing ignored her at first and followed Lin Chen back and forth. Later, she heard that Xu Rongrong had interesting things there, so she followed Xu Rongrong.
There was nothing interesting about Xu Rongrong. Ye Jing was simply deceived.
Xu Rongrong learned how to grow some vegetables this year. Mr. Shen had a large garden behind his place, but it was all abandoned. In the spring, Xu Rongrong saw that other people were planting gardens, so he went to ask for help, asking one by one for advice.
When I had nothing to do, I sat with a group of women from the countryside and studied growing vegetables.
Zhan Yiyang helped her dig the garden, and the soil was plowed over to make it flat and fine.
During the planting, a group of women came and helped each other. After planting, they watered the garden, and then told Xu Rongrong how to do it. From that day on, Xu Rongrong started to carefully cultivate the garden every day.
It's okay, the other elder sisters and sister-in-law will come over as well.
Xu Rongrong was usually a nice person. He would prepare some delicious food and deliver it from house to house, and the neighbors would also take care of him.
Based on this, when Xu Rongrong was not at home, the garden was actually cleaner than when she was at home, and there was always someone to clean it up for them.
After the person leaves, give the keys to the neighbor's eldest sister and keep them safe for you. Don't take any of them with you.
Xu Rongrong and the others can leave with peace of mind.
Xu Rongrong has not made time these days, and he will still invite everyone to his home in a few days.
The yard was already full of fruits. Xu Rongrong carried a basin and went to pick persimmons in front of the persimmon stand, followed by Ye Jing.
Xu Rongrong reached out to pick it, and Ye Jing also reached out. Xu Rongrong immediately slapped Ye Jing's little paw, and Ye Jing hurriedly retracted her hand, eyes full of displeasure, and turned to leave.
Xu Rongrong pulled the person back, and regardless of whether Ye Jing could understand it or not, he asked Ye Jing: "Do you want to know where Lin Chen is?"
Hearing what Xu Rongrong said, Ye Jing nodded.
Xu Rongrong knew that Ye Jing had forgotten everything else, but she remembered Lin Chen. As long as she mentioned Lin Chen, Ye Jing could calm down for a while, her mind seemed to be able to think, and she was no longer so unreasonable.
"Did you see it? Pick the red ones and put them here. Lin Chen likes to eat red ones." Xu Rongrong showed Ye Jing a persimmon in his hand, and Ye Jing frowned.
"No." Shaking her head, Ye Jing refused to admit it. Xu Rongrong was surprised and looked at Ye Jing: "What is that?"
In fact, Xu Rongrong was a little excited. Normally, Ye Jing seldom spoke. She only listened to what others said. She only heard Ye Jing talk to her about Lin Chen and her when she was upstairs.
Recalling those words, Xu Rongrong suddenly discovered that although Ye Jing didn't say anything, she was complaining about Lin Chen and her in her heart. She must have known that Lin Chen was obsessed with her, and she had a knot in her heart that she still can't let go of.
With this thought, Xu Rongrong felt even more guilty about Ye Jing.
He is also much gentler to Ye Jing.
"Tomato." Ye Jing suddenly said to Xu Rongrong, and Xu Rongrong was stunned.
Northerners and southerners have different names for many things. Tomatoes are called tomatoes in the south and persimmons in the north. When Xu Rongrong came from this place, he called tomatoes persimmons. Only then did he remember that there are some differences.
"It's a tomato, but it's also a persimmon. Lin Chen likes red tomatoes, so he picked them like this." Xu Rongrong picked a persimmon and showed it to Ye Jing.
Ye Jing reached out and picked one too, and imitated Xu Rongrong and put the persimmons into the basin.
After that, Xu Rongrong taught Ye Jing how to pick vegetables while talking to Ye Jing.
In Xu Rongrong's opinion, talking more is beneficial.
After a few hours, Xu Rongrong and Ye Jing picked all the fruits and vegetables in the garden, and then they worked together to get to the front.
Ye Jing's tired little face turned red. She would do whatever Xu Rongrong did. Even when Xu Rongrong ate cucumbers, she would eat them too.
After putting it down, Xu Rongrong went to get a jar, but it couldn't compare to that kind of wine jar. This kind of jar is specially used for pickling vegetables.
Xu Rongrong wants to pickle some uneaten vegetables into pickles and plans to eat them in winter.
The remaining ones that cannot be pickled can be dried in the sun and made into dried vegetables. In winter, they can be soaked and blanched in hot water before being cooked and eaten.
Although he has only been here for a short time, Xu Rongrong has learned a lot from the people in the village.
After everything was done together, Ye Jing was also very tired. She didn't even eat lunch and wandered around trying to go to bed. Lin Chen wiped his own sweat and wiped Ye Jing's sweat at the same time.
I washed Ye Jing's face and brought a box of pure milk to Ye Jing, so I wouldn't be hungry even if I was sleeping.
Ye Jing drank the milk and fell asleep on the soft quilt.
Xu Rongrong then said to Lin Chen: "I'll look at Ye Jing this afternoon and tell you what you should do. I'm going to cook first, and you should take a rest."
After Xu Rongrong left, Lin Chen sat down to take a breath. He was so tired that he couldn't straighten up.
When the meal was ready, Xu Rongrong did not ask Lin Chen to go out to eat, but delivered the food to Lin Chen's house.
"When you are tired, you can just eat in the house. I will finish eating later and I will clean it up. You can just put it aside."
Xu Rongrong put down the food and left. Lin Chen looked down for a while and then sent the food to the door. Xu Rongrong and Zhan Yiyang finished eating and came to carry them back to clean up.
In fact, Xu Rongrong's health was also not good, but in order to take care of Lin Chen and Ye Jing, she ate more every day, feeling that this would give her strength.
Only when you have strength can you take good care of Lin Chen and Ye Jing.
Xu Rongrong was eating the rice while eating the last bite of the dish. As soon as Zhan Yiyang stretched out his chopsticks, the dish was gone and Zhan Yiyang's face turned dark!
