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

"yes!"

Xia An smiled and said, "They're all from the city, probably introduced by acquaintances."

Aunt Yumei hesitated and said, "These three people seem to have extraordinary backgrounds."

All eyes turned to Xia An, filled with curiosity.

Xia An shook his head and smiled, "I didn't ask, I just knew that two of them were involved in seed research and one was involved in calligraphy culture."

Everyone nodded slightly.

Many people in the village know a little bit about calligraphy, but you can't really do it if you don't have money or time.

And that seed research... it sounds like it must be quite complex too.

Kong Qingci asked in a low voice, "Xia Zhiqing, you didn't refrain from charging any consultation fees, did you?"

Everyone's eyes turned towards them, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Xia An glanced at the look Kong Qingci gave her, shook her head and smiled.

"They're not from Anping Village. I was planning to charge them two yuan."

"But they gave each of them ten dollars and some vouchers, saying they could come to me for treatment if they felt unwell later."

"I couldn't refuse, so I accepted it."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked surprised.

"Ten yuan per person, that's thirty yuan, is that so much?"

"And there are ration coupons too, those are valuable too. City people are so extravagant!"

The crowd whispered among themselves, their eyes filled with complex emotions, but mostly gratitude.

"alright,"

Xia An raised her hand to stop her, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I plan to continue teaching Yun Shu and the others."

"If you need a consultation, come in; if not, go about your own business."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yumei immediately stepped forward and said apologetically:

"I've come to check on things. Thank you for your help, Xia Zhiqing."

"What's the trouble?"

Xia An shook her head and smiled, "Auntie, come into the examination room, let me take a look at you."

Next,

Xia An treated everyone, and also gave instruction to Luo Yunshu and the others.

As each team member left with a smile, night began to slowly fall.

The gong signaling the end of the workday sounded, and Xie Lingxiu left with the three little ones, Xie Ling'er and Xie Ling'er.

The task of transporting the three little ones back and forth now falls to her.

In the main room, a new table has replaced the old eight-immortal table.

Compared to the original eight-immortal table, the new table is the same width, but twice as long.

Xia An looked at the new table, shook his head and smiled, "This table is big, but it might be difficult for people on both sides to reach the food."

Jiang Mengmeng brought in the dishes, smiled and said, "It's no problem. Just put the same dishes on separate plates and put some on both sides."

Xia An nodded, looked at Li Yuxue, smiled, and asked:

"Sister Yuxue, how's the situation on your end?"

Li Yuxue smiled, "The kang (heated brick bed) has already been heated; you can move in tonight."

"The cooking utensils were bought beforehand, and Uncle Deming and the others have already delivered the table and other furniture."

Xia An nodded.

But then Li Yuxue laughed and said, "However, I'm too lazy to cook when I'm alone."

"I've discussed it with Qingxuan and the others, and we'd like to team up with you. They've already agreed. I hope Xia Zhiqing won't object?"

Xia An was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what she meant, shook her head, and chuckled softly.

"Of course I have no objection. They do the housework, so as long as they agree, it's fine."

Upon hearing this answer, Li Yuxue looked at the others and smiled slightly.

"I knew Xia, the educated youth, would agree, right?"

Everyone smiled knowingly.

Li Yuxue's words were less a question to Xia An and more a question for Xie Lingyun to see.

In the courtyard,

She was the only outsider left.

Of course, this refers to mealtimes; at night or even on ordinary days, she's not one of the people living in the compound.

Especially at night!

Looking at the sumptuous dinner on the table, Xie Lingyun's surprise lingered for a long time.

Kong Qingci sat down beside her. "These are all people Xia Zhiqing rescued, the ones Li Jia brought here."

"But don't go back and say anything out of line. If you cause trouble, we won't be able to eat."

Xie Lingyun nodded quickly; she naturally understood this principle.

At this moment, she began to understand why her parents wanted her to work in the clinic.

Why would you want her to eat here?

This food is so delicious.

She glanced at Xia An unconsciously. Living with Xia An, the educated youth, was truly a blessing!

Moreover, Xia Zhiqing was capable, a good person, and had a good personality...

Thinking this way, she couldn't help but feel a strange sensation rising within her.

But after glancing at the beautiful women in the room, she couldn't help but lower her head.

They all think that these people are better than her, right?

"Eat quickly,"

Kong Qingci smiled and said, "We still need to go to the clinic after we eat. Unlike Lingxiu and the others, we'll stay until 9 o'clock before going back."

Xie Lingyun nodded quickly, "I know, Sister Qingci."

After eating,

Xia An glanced at Shen Nianchu and her sister, and said meaningfully:

"There are things in the room, but don't touch them with cold water."

The two sisters blushed slightly, exchanged a glance, and their eyes held a hint of shyness.

Everyone smiled; as expected, nothing could escape Xia An's eyes.

Xia An smiled and said, "You guys get ready and get some rest. I'm going to the infirmary."

Everyone nodded, and Luo Yunshu and the other two followed them to the infirmary.

Soon,

People continued to arrive, and the consultations continued!

Time passed slowly,

After seeing all the team members off, Xia An casually asked:

"Yunshu, what time is it?"

"It's past nine o'clock," Luo Yunshu replied, glancing at her watch.

"Pack your things, I'll take you back."

Xia An stood up and said.

Luo Yunshu and the other two nodded quickly.

At this time,

Luo Yunshu thought of something and said, "If you ask me, we should just stay at Sister Yuxue's place. That way, we won't have to make a trip there so late at night."

Kong Qingci was slightly tempted, and glanced at Xia An imperceptibly.

He then smiled and said, "I still have to go home. It's fine to rest here occasionally, but I don't know about Yuxue's situation..."

Luo Yunshu smiled and said, "Sister Yuxue is a very nice person. I'll talk to her about it later."

"But if you want to stay, you need to tell your family."

Kong Qingci smiled and said, "Sometimes I feel too lazy to walk, so I go back and discuss it with my family."

Xie Lingyun shook her head and said, "I'm a little used to home, but I can go back by myself. I don't need Brother Xia to take me."

"No need to think about it, let me walk around a bit longer later."

Xia An chuckled and then led the three of them to the neighboring courtyard.

"Qingci, there's still quite a bit of fruit left. Take some back for your uncle and aunt."

As he spoke, he glanced at Xie Lingyun beside him and added,

"Spiritual charm too."

Xie Lingyun quickly shook her head, "Brother Xia, I'll pass..."

"Don't be polite with him."

Kong Qingci smiled and pulled her along, then picked up two baskets of fruit, handing one to her.

Luo Yunshu casually grabbed one and ate it, with no intention of taking it back.

There's no one at her home, so she doesn't need it.

After sending the three back, Xia An did not return; instead, he turned and went to the riverbank.
