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

"Brother Xia, you're back?"

Upon seeing Xia An return, Shen Nian'an, who was in the courtyard, quickly stepped forward to help him take the medicine basket.

"Didn't the others come back?"

Xia An asked casually,

Shen Nian'an shook her head, "They're all at the clinic. Sister Yuxue is helping out at the construction site."

Xia An nodded slightly and placed the thin firewood against the side of the woodpile.

Why don't you go over there?

Shen Nian'an shook her head, her face slightly flushed, and said somewhat shyly,

"I'm a little bored and want to sit in the yard by myself for a while."

Xia An glanced at her, smiled gently, and asked, "Is something on your mind? Do you need my help?"

"No need, no need." Shen Nian'an quickly waved her hand, her eyes slightly evasive.

"Okay, just let me know if you need anything."

Xia An smiled and said,

He immediately changed the subject, "I'm going over there now, do you want to come with me?"

Shen Nian'an nodded quickly.

Xia An smiled, picked up the medicine basket, and led her to the clinic.

Take out the medicinal herbs and put them one by one into the winnowing baskets on the drying rack.

These baskets contain medicinal herbs he has collected recently, some dry and some wet.

At this time,

Luo Yunshu and the others also noticed the commotion outside and came out one by one.

Seeing that Xia An was unharmed, they all breathed a sigh of relief and their faces lit up with smiles.

"Brother Xia An, let me help you."

Luo Yunshu quickly stepped forward to help Xia An sort the medicinal herbs for drying.

Xia An nodded with a smile.

While drying the medicinal herbs, he didn't forget to use his divine preaching skills to explain the various herbs to everyone.

And their effects, which medicinal materials they are suitable to be paired with, and what their effects are.

Everyone knew that Xia An was intentionally teaching them, and they listened attentively.

The main thing is that they can really understand and remember what they hear, which gives them a great sense of pleasure.

Soon,

After the newly harvested medicinal herbs finished drying, Xia An was about to continue explaining the other medicinal herbs.

But then people started arriving for their consultations.

Clearly, they all knew he was back and came specifically to see him.

Xia An didn't take it seriously, thinking that the situation would ease up in a few days.

Once all the Anpingtun team members have visited, only those who are truly ill and frequently experience pain will remain.

Or perhaps someone who suffers a sudden, unexpected accident.

of course,

Apart from those six or seven elderly people, Anping Village

The other elderly people were mostly around 40 years old; those were the few hundred people who survived the war.

There are symptoms, but they are all still in their prime, so they are not very noticeable.

Once most of the symptoms in these people have been cured or alleviated, the number of people coming to the clinic for treatment will gradually decrease.

Time slips away quietly.

Soon it was time to finish work, which was also lunchtime.

By this time, almost no one came; everyone had gone home to cook.

Or perhaps they know that this is the time for them to eat, so they won't come over to disturb Xia An.

Even if they occasionally deliver food, it will be before mealtimes, not at this time.

Xia An looked at the food on the table, then shook his head and chuckled as he glanced at Ye Qingxuan and the others.

"You really don't need to save money."

"Li Jia has channels to get grains, vegetables, and fruits; he pays me the purchase price."

"Even if we eat as much as we want, we won't bankrupt me, you have to believe me."

Upon hearing this, the women glanced at the food on the table, and couldn't help but twitch their lips slightly.

省？

White rice, three vegetable dishes, and two meat dishes—all in generous portions and enough to fill you up.

That's enough to feed all ten of them.

This kind of setup is practically a capitalist lifestyle, and you're still asking for savings?

Even those from well-off families don't necessarily eat this well every day.

They only get to eat this once every ten days or half a month, or even during holidays.

Ye Qingxuan shook her head. "Xia An, we know how much we should eat."

"You should take it easy a little. This is all in the yard. We wouldn't dare eat like this outside, we wouldn't even dare to say it."

Everyone quickly nodded in agreement.

Kong Qingci shook her head slightly, "When I get home, I only dare to say that the food was good, I don't dare to be specific."

"The way we eat is the kind of way that would make people envious and jealous, and might even make them have bad intentions."

Upon hearing this, the women were slightly surprised and gave Luo Yunshu a strange look.

Luo Yunshu previously said that Kong Qingci was very principled, but after spending a few days with her, she doesn't seem to be that difficult to get along with.

Luo Yunshu seemed to have guessed their thoughts, and was somewhat speechless.

She was curious too.

Although Qingci was not difficult to get along with before, she was not this easy to get along with, was she?

Listening to their conversation, Xia An, considering the nature of this era, nodded in agreement.

"Just be sensible. My request is simple: don't skimp on anything."

"After all, I also want to eat something good, and I want you all to eat something good too."

The women blushed slightly, vaguely understanding his thoughts, and none of them spoke.

Even Kong Qingci didn't say anything out of line at this moment, but he felt a slight unease in his heart.

As everyone ate, their thoughts were all different.

……

Yang Yanqiu's home

Looking at the pheasant soup on the table, Yang Zhiming and his wife exchanged a glance and smiled.

Since their daughter brought home fish, their family's life has improved.

Yanqiu's choice was not bad!

At the very least, Xia Jiang has done a very good job in this area.

Now, not only are they coming to help with the house construction, but they're also making sure to improve the family's meals.

This is enough to show his sincerity.

After all, even if he brought Yang Yanqiu back to Xiajiatun after they got their marriage certificate,

Alternatively, if they choose not to build a house and instead rent, they can't really say anything.

But he not only helped Yang Yanqiu build a house, he also occasionally brought back game to improve the family's meals. This guy is really nice.

Just ...

They weren't sure if it was just their imagination, but they always felt there was a strange distance between the young man and their daughter.

They've gone too far with their mutual respect.

But every time they asked, the two would give vague answers, which made them a little suspicious.

The family here gets along well.

Little did they know that Yang Yanjun and his two companions next door all looked rather uncomfortable.

They inhaled the delicious aroma in the air and swallowed hard.

So much so that looking at the coarse grain porridge and the almost oil-less vegetables on the table,

I felt a sour taste in my mouth, and the taste was like chewing wax; I simply couldn't swallow it.

"How about you go for a walk in the mountains tomorrow?"

The young woman spoke, looking hopefully at Yang Yanjun.

But before she could finish speaking, the woman next to her slapped her across the face.

"What are you up to, woman? Don't you know what the situation is like in those mountains?"

The young woman rubbed her burning shoulders and couldn't help but mutter:

"If Mom hadn't had that conflict with your uncle's family, would we be cooking separately?"

"you……"

Sun Wei's expression changed, her gaze turned cold, and she said in a low voice,

"Zhou Jiajia, are you blaming me?"

Zhou Jiajia quickly shook her head, "You're Yanjun's mother, how could your daughter-in-law dare?"

"However, every time Yanjun and I tried to mend our relationship, it was you who..."

Of course,

Before she could finish speaking, Yang Yanjun slammed his hand on the table, interrupting her.

"Jiajia, say less."

Zhou Jiajia paused, glancing at Yang Yanjun with a hint of resentment in her eyes.

"Just protect her, after all, she's your mother, and moreover..."

"That's enough!"

Yang Yanjun said angrily, his face flushed red, and his eyes showed a hint of danger.
