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

Xia An looked at the slightly gloomy sky outside the window, then glanced at her watch.

She frowned slightly. "It's almost eight o'clock, why hasn't anyone woken me up?"

He walked out of the ward, only to find the entire clinic eerily quiet.

In the consultation room.

Kong Qingci sat quietly on the kang (a heated brick bed), flipping through the medical books that Luo Yunshu had brought.

"Xia, you're awake?"

Seeing him approach, Kong Qingci put down her book, a faint smile appearing on her cool and pretty face.

That is, Xia An. If it were an ordinary person, they might not be able to see this smile.

Xia An nodded slightly. "Sister Qingci, it's almost eight o'clock, isn't anyone coming over?"

"Yes," Kong Qingci nodded, "but they all left knowing you were resting."

Xia An frowned slightly. "Didn't you say to call me when someone arrives?"

Kong Qingci shook her head. "They don't want to disturb your rest. They said they'll come later."

Xia An shook her head slightly, not thinking much of it.

But I was somewhat surprised that I slept quite soundly.

But after thinking about it, it seems normal.

Previously, I was distracted by teaching while seeing patients. Although we were walking in the mountains, I also drank spring water to relieve fatigue.

They might even take a short nap in their space, but it doesn't have a significant impact.

Although he had drunk the spiritual spring water twice today, the high intensity of teaching inevitably left him somewhat exhausted.

In addition, the spring water can relieve fatigue, restore energy, and refresh the mind.

But people still need a certain amount of sleep.

Just then,

Luo Yunshu walked in and, seeing that Xia An was already up, couldn't help but smile.

"Xia An, you're up! The food is ready, come and eat!"

Xia An nodded.

The three of them walked out of the clinic.

Xia An glanced up at the sky, her brows furrowing slightly.

His gaze swept across the distance, and a guess formed in his mind. He glanced at the courtyard and said...

"Don't rush to eat, let's put the medicinal herbs away first, it might rain soon."

"rain?"

Kong Qingci asked in confusion, "Judging from this situation, it doesn't look like it's going to rain?"

"intuition."

Xia An smiled and said, "You guys put them away first, I'll go check on Sister Yuxue."

Having said that, he walked towards the other side.

As he said, it was indeed intuition plus a little bit of guesswork, not an accurate speculation.

His passive skill, "My Heart is the Heart of Heaven," triggers once every three days, revealing the weather for two days in advance. Today, unfortunately, it's not among those days.

It will only trigger tomorrow, revealing the weather conditions for tomorrow and the day after.

But it's always better to be safe than sorry.

at this time,

Li Yuxue was smoking in the house construction area, while Luo Shutong and the others were tidying up and preparing to finish work.

Seeing Xia An approach, Uncle Luo stepped forward and said with a light laugh, "What brings you here, Xia An, the educated youth?"

"Come and take a look."

Xia An smiled and glanced subtly at the cigarette in his hand, then didn't offer him another one.

He glanced at the adobe wall. "Third Uncle, is the roof beam almost up?"

Luo Shutong laughed and said, "It's almost done. We can put up the roof beam tomorrow. But why did Xia, the educated youth, suddenly ask this?"

"On a whim, out of curiosity, I asked."

Xia An smiled and asked, "I heard the Yang family in Tundong is also building a house. How's the progress?"

Uncle Luo laughed and said, "I'm in charge of both sides, and the roof beam will be raised tomorrow."

Xia An nodded slightly, having already made up his mind. He smiled and said:

"I see you're almost done working, Uncle, why don't you go grab something to eat?"

"Thank you, Xia Zhiqing."

Uncle Luo waved his hand and laughed, "But my family should have it ready. I can just go back and eat."

Xia An nodded slightly and didn't try to persuade her further.

Just then,

Li Yuxue walked over and said with a smile, "Did Xia, the educated youth, come all the way here to call me for dinner?"

Xia An smiled and said, "You've been eating with them these past few days, haven't you? Since you didn't go back, they asked me to come and call you."

Thanks.

Li Yuxue chuckled softly, then glanced apologetically at Luo Shutong.

"Uncle Luo, I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain you properly. Please forgive me."

Luo Shutong shook his head and smiled, waving his hand and saying:

"You're too kind. You should go back now. We need to pack up and head home too."

"Okay," Li Yuxue nodded, "Uncle Luo, you should finish work and rest early."

Watching the two leave, Uncle Luo's gaze was deep, and he murmured softly.

"I can't figure it out!"

"This educated youth Xia has indeed changed a lot; we could at least see some signs of it before."

"Looking back now, she concealed her emotions quite well, and her interactions with others were as if they were just cooperating in cooking."

"eccentric!"

"It seems that Li Yuxue does indeed like Xia Zhiqing. How interesting!"

Uncle Luo chuckled and turned to help tidy up, preparing to leave work.

After Xia An and the other person entered the courtyard, Li Yuxue asked curiously:

"Xia An, why did you make this special trip today?"

It's no wonder she was curious; Xia An had never gone to see it before, but suddenly she did today.

Xia An shook her head. "My intuition tells me it's going to rain in the next couple of days."

"Let's go ask about the situation and hopefully put the roof on before it rains."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuxue's expression tightened slightly as she recalled the last time it rained.

She didn't understand Xia An's method of observing the weather, but it was indeed very accurate.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at the slightly gloomy sky.

Unfortunately, the sun had already set a while ago, and it was no longer visible.

She hesitated and said, "Should I go back and ask them to cover it with an oilcloth, just in case?"

"Need not,"

Xia An waved his hand and said, "It should be in the next day or two, but it probably won't rain tonight."

"I see," Li Yuxue breathed a sigh of relief, now believing it.

Jiang Mengmeng called out, "Xia An, what are you two talking about? Come and eat!"

"They're here."

Xia An responded, and the two quickly walked into the main room.

at this time,

Luo Yunshu and Kong Qingci had already put away the medicinal herbs and were helping to serve the dishes.

Looking at the octagonal table and the busy people around her, Li Yuxue couldn't help but smile:

"Xia An, how about you get a slightly longer table later?"

"When ten of us eat together, it can get a little crowded sometimes."

Xia An nodded.

"I'll ask around later. Do you need a kang cabinet? Or anything else?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Ye Qingxuan shook her head and smiled, "It's enough for now, we'll talk about it later."

An Lan served the last dish: "Don't just stand there, sit down."

Looking at the table laden with meat dishes and white rice, Kong Qingci looked slightly helpless.

"Xia, the way you're eating, I really feel that three work points a day is too little. How about we increase it to six?"

Xia An shook her head and chuckled, "How many times have you brought this up already? I've told you not to overthink it."

"Just consider it... hush money, as long as you don't tell anyone what's going on in this courtyard."

Kong Qingci quickly shook his head, a rare bitter smile appearing on his face.
