Stunning Check-in: A Carefree Life Begins in the Countryside

As Xia An passed by the entrance to the main room, he suddenly heard Luo Yunshu's whisper.

"Sister Qingci, you won't be spreading rumors about what happened here with Brother Xia An, will you?"

Hearing this, Xia An paused slightly, and heard Kong Qingci's voice in his ear:

"I'm not that free..."

He smiled slightly, walked quickly away, and went to the clinic.

But obviously,

At this time, everyone is either coming back or cooking, so no one is coming over.

Not long after,

Ye Qingxuan and the others also returned.

"Wow, this is so lavish?"

Jiang Mengmeng looked at the roast chicken, roast duck, and the white rice and meat that were being cooked on the table.

All stunned.

Ye Qingxuan frowned slightly. "So arrogant, did Xia An go to the commune?"

Luo Yunshu looked up. "Huh, Qingxuan, how did you know?"

Ye Qingxuan smiled helplessly, "Besides him, who else is so bad at managing money?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, and then they all burst into laughter.

Everyone else was frugal, but Xia An was a bit of an oddball.

During this period, all the meat from the hunt was cooked, leaving nothing behind.

They often buy roast chicken, and they can't bear to calculate the expenses for building a house...

Jiang Mengmeng couldn't help but shake her head, "I still don't understand, what exactly is the bourgeoisie...?"

But before she could finish speaking, Ye Qingxuan gave her a cold glare.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Jiang Mengmeng realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly covered her mouth tightly.

She glanced at the group of people shyly, her beautiful eyes mainly fixed on Kong Qingci.

Kong Qingci shook her head and said, "Don't look at me, I don't know anything."

At this time,

Xia An walked in from outside, smiled, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ye Qingxuan shook her head, "It's nothing, I just mean you don't know how to manage a household."

Upon hearing this, Xia An shook his head and smiled.

"As long as we can get by, that's enough."

"Oh, by the way, the things you asked me to buy for you, I left them with you."

Ye Qingxuan was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered and nodded with a smile.

Thanks.

Xia An shook her head, "What's the relationship? Why are you being so polite?"

Ye Qingxuan smiled, calmly washed her hands, and turned to go inside.

The crowd was used to Xia An's speaking style and didn't pay much attention.

Only An Lan, who was in the know, seemed to realize what was happening, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

Jiang Mengmeng and the others didn't think much of it and helped Luo Yunshu and Kong Qingci with their work.

Cooking is now much faster.

Inner room,

Ye Qingxuan looked at the thing under the pillow, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"This man is thoughtful."

But upon seeing the two sets of ice silk, she couldn't help but blush and quickly put them away.

After putting her things away, she went out of the inner room and sat down next to Xia An as if nothing had happened.

"So, you're planning to have Yun Shu and Kong Qingci team up with us?"

"No," Xia An shook her head, "Sister Yuxue went back. Yun Shu lives alone, and it would be troublesome for her to cook when she gets back."

"Kong Qingci was originally planning to go back, but she said she wanted to come back, so I thought I'd tell her not to make the trip."

Ye Qingxuan gave him a playful look, remaining noncommittal.

She had pretty much seen through this man.

One word: lustful!

Two words: passionate!

She shook her head slightly. "What did you buy at the commune today?"

Xia An blinked. "An iron pot. We'll buy it if the clinic needs it."

"A stack of old newspapers. When I have time, I can use them to wallpaper the walls; it will make it more comfortable to live in."

"Roast chicken and roast duck, some seasonings, and some vegetables."

"I mainly bought 50 catties each of polished rice, wheat flour, and sweet potatoes, along with some vegetables, through connections. They're all in my main room."

"You can use these. I'll just buy more when you run out."

Upon hearing this, aside from Luo Yunshu and Kong Qingci, whom they had already met,

The others stared wide-eyed at Xia An in disbelief.

Fifty catties each of polished rice and wheat flour—that's an extraordinary amount!

Even in the city, this is enough fine grain for an average family for two or three months.

Besides, this is the countryside!

Ye Qingxuan's expression became much more serious. She stood up and glanced outside the courtyard.

He glanced again at the educated youth settlement before turning to Xia An and saying in a hoarse voice:

"You went to the black market?"

"What city is this?"

Xia An shook her head and chuckled, "Where would there be a black market in broad daylight? I bought it through connections, so you can eat it without worry."

"In addition, that friend gave me ten catties of donkey meat, and I asked Yunshu and the others to cook it as well."

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Xia An, your connections are amazing! How did you manage to get these without tickets?"

Jiang Mengmeng exclaimed in surprise,

An Lan frowned, surprised and doubtful, "Isn't the focus the donkey meat?"

"Besides someone who died in an accident, who has the ability to get their hands on this stuff?"

Xia An shook her head and chuckled, "You can eat whatever I brought back without worry."

"I can just buy more if they run out. I have strong connections there, so it's no problem."

Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances, their faces showing concern.

Ye Qingxuan took a deep breath.

"Don't spend so much next time. We're fine as long as we're full. You should save your money and not spend it recklessly."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Xia An's gaze swept over the crowd, and she smiled knowingly.

"My teacher gave me a lot of money before he passed away. Since I have the ability, I won't let people I like suffer."

Everyone blushed slightly, thinking that Xia An was talking about them, and lowered their heads in silence.

Only Ye Qingxuan and An Lan understood what was going on, and they rolled their eyes in unison.

But when the two looked at each other, their eyebrows lifted slightly, and the smiles in their eyes were hard to shake off.

But Ye Qingxuan remained rational, her voice slightly lowered as she said:

"Xia An, we appreciate your kindness, but we'd like to cook together..."

Xia An seemed to know what she wanted to say, waved his hand, and said in a slightly deep voice,

"Qingxuan, I know what you want to say, but can you listen to me for a moment?"

"If you feel it's not appropriate, you can calculate the cost of the grain and vegetables and give it to me privately."

Everyone's expressions tightened slightly, their beautiful eyes narrowed, and they vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Then Xia An continued:

"I have a good eye for people, and I can tell you're all trustworthy and nice people."

"If you feel bad about it, you can pay it back. Those who don't have the money can owe it to you first."

"Or, if you consider me a friend, you don't need to worry about these things."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes flickered slightly, and it was unclear what they were thinking.

At this time,

Xia An's voice continued, now tinged with amusement and teasing.
