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

"The other medicinal herbs are easy to arrange,"

Xia An pondered for a moment and said, "But the clinic doesn't have highly nourishing medicines like ginseng and deer antler."

"In addition, if treatment begins, you cannot do heavy work for at least two or three months; these factors also need to be taken into account."

Upon hearing this, Xie Weiguo and the other person frowned slightly, but after thinking about it, they felt it was normal.

"The hunters in the village should have some deer antlers, but I don't know if they'll be enough."

Xie Weiguo hesitated and said:

"As for ginseng, there are hardly any herb gatherers in Anping Village, so it's practically nonexistent there."

Xia An shook her head. "I'll ask Xia Ming and Xia Jiang for you later."

"They often travel in the mountains and know about herbs, so they might have ginseng."

Upon hearing this, Xie Weiguo and his brother's eyes lit up; that was indeed possible.

"We're not very familiar with them, so let's trouble Xia, the educated youth, to ask them for us."

Xie Jiaguo smiled sheepishly.

"Of course, Xia Zhiqing, you just need to act as a go-between for us, and I'll discuss the details with them."

Xia An nodded, "I'll give you a prescription later and see if there are any missing medicines. Buy them if you can, or find them if you can."

"In addition, you should also consider when to start treatment."

Xie Weiguo and the other man nodded.

Xie Jiaguo hesitated and said, "Since Xia Zhiqing said she can't do heavy work, can we postpone the treatment until hibernation?"

"Here, hibernation lasts for four or five months. There's nothing particularly important to do during that time, so it's a good time."

Xia An nodded, "I'm fine with anything, it's up to you."

"good,"

Xie Jiaguo nodded quickly, "Then Xia Zhiqing will give me the prescription, and I will start preparing afterwards."

Xia An nodded, wrote him a prescription, chatted for a few more minutes, and then left.

Back in the courtyard,

Ye Qingxuan and Kong Qingci were actually still awake, seemingly waiting for him.

Xia An went inside and sat on the kang (heated brick bed), but heard a teasing voice coming from the person in his arms.

"They took so long! Yanqiu and the others have pretty good stamina!"

Xia An ran his large hand up from his abdomen, shook his head with a smile, and explained:

This book was first published on 2009.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

"Not particularly strong."

"I should have been back more than half an hour earlier, but I ran into Uncle Xie and the others on the way."

"Secretary Xie?"

Ye Qingxuan was somewhat surprised. "Is it because of the weather?"

"But today's weather has already confirmed your prediction, so there's no need for them to ask again, right?"

"No!" Xia An shook her head.

"It's about Sister Luo Yue's treatment, and Lingyun's father's illness..."

"Oh?"

Ye Qingxuan raised an eyebrow slightly. "I see. Could you tell me more?"

"That's fine, but you two shouldn't say anything carelessly, so as not to cause trouble for others."

Xia An smiled and nodded, then briefly explained the two things that had just happened.

"You can even cure Uncle Xie's symptoms? An, you're amazing!"

Kong Qingci sighed in admiration, a slight smile playing on his lips, as if he were proud of Xia An.

Ye Qingxuan retorted, "We all know who Xia Jiang and Xia Ming are. How could you push this onto them? And you still have ginseng?"

"Qingxuan is really smart," Xia An said with a slight smile, but her hands kept moving.

Ye Qingxuan's face flushed slightly, her eyes flashed, and she said thoughtfully:

"If I'm not mistaken, you want Xia Jiang or Xia Ming to accept this... favor?"

Xia An smiled and nodded, not bothering to avoid mentioning Kong Qingci, and said frankly:

"To be precise, it's Xia Jiang."

"Xia Ming has little connection with Anping Village; my goal from the beginning has always been Xia Jiang."

"If we can make Uncle Xie and the others owe Xia Jiang a favor through this, it might make things much easier for Yanqiu and the others."

Ye Qingxuan nodded slightly, her eyes already showing a hint of unreality.

"You handle this yourself. I only have one thing on my mind right now."

"An~, I want to~"

……

Pine Forest Commune,

In the dead of night, Wenmin lay in bed, but couldn't fall asleep.

"Three days have passed, why hasn't he come to see me yet?"

"Do I have to deliver it up myself?"

She murmured, recalling the experiences of the past few days, feeling somewhat uneasy.

"Or perhaps he truly considered that moment of manipulation as payment?"

"Should I still deliver it?"

Wenmin hesitated for a long time, then finally sighed.

"Fine, let's see how he does!"

……

Nothing was said that night.

As the morning light falls upon the earth, brightness descends upon the world once more, and a new day begins.

Xie Weiguo looked at the gloomy sky and felt that something was wrong.

"Why does it feel like a storm is brewing today?"

"It shouldn't be that bad, after all, Xia Zhiqing has Xian'er by his side... Let's wait and see."

Aunt Xiangyun offered words of comfort.

"When we eat and brew medicine, perhaps eating a good meal would make a difference."

Xie Weiguo nodded.

He was about to say something when he felt a gentle breeze, and he couldn't help but pause in surprise.

"It's an easterly wind."

Xie Weiguo's face lit up with joy. "Great! With this wind blowing, why would it rain?"

"This educated youth Xia is truly capable!"

Aunt Xiangyun and the others were slightly taken aback, then they all smiled.

the other side,

Xia An only started washing up after activating the skill "My Heart Is the Heart of Heaven".

The team notified us yesterday that we need to assemble and start work at daybreak.

therefore,

Ye Qingxuan and the others got up before dawn, and by then the meal was already prepared.

This also includes the whole-grain pancakes for lunch.

After all, during the autumn harvest, people often eat lunch in the fields to avoid delays.

After a good meal and a short rest, they'll get back to work; there's no time to go home and cook.

Of course, Xia An didn't actually intend for Ye Qingxuan and Kong Qingci to eat coarse grain cakes.

He has a backup plan.

After eating,

The group went into Xia An's house and then came out again.

Ye Qingxuan and Kong Qingci, along with their group, happened to run into other educated youth.

The group greeted each other and headed towards the grain drying ground in the east of the village.

in the house,

Looking out the window, I watched everyone leave.

Luo Yunshu turned to look at everyone, and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"I feel there's something slightly wrong with shirking work."

Xia An wrapped his arms around her waist and chuckled softly.

"This is not called shirking work."

"Escaping labor means doing nothing, but we have substitutes to do it."

The women nodded.

"Although it's just a small autumn harvest, it's still tiring. Xia An doesn't want us to get too tired."

Li Yuxue chuckled.

"Moreover, Xia An is right; the meaning of labor is the harvest."

"If puppets do what we're supposed to do for us, then we're not shirking our responsibilities."

The women nodded and said nothing more.

At this time,

An Lan hesitated and asked, "What do we do next?"

"It seems we can't go out. Should we just sleep?"

"Sleeping is good too!"

Xia An chuckled, a hint of amusement lingering at the corners of her lips, her eyes gleaming.

Although Ye Qingxuan and Kong Qingci were not present, there were still seven people in the room.

Even excluding the Shen sisters and Jiang Mengmeng, there are still four.

His spring!

The women couldn't help but twitch at the corner of their mouths when they saw his gaze, as if they could see right through him.

Jiang Mengmeng said speechlessly, "Nianchu, Nianan, this is none of our business. Let's go over there and play games to pass the time."

The two nodded quickly and followed Jiang Mengmeng to the east wing.

Ye Wan'er wanted to go over too, but Xia An pulled her into his arms.

"Let's play too, and the loser will have to accept a punishment, how about it?"

Li Yuxue asked with a half-smile, "Is the punishment what I'm thinking of?"

"But are you sure this is punishment?"

An Lan smiled and said, "Xia An, are you sure you can punish her enough?"

Xia An smiled meaningfully and took out a deck of cards from the cabinet.

Immediately, he pulled out a box from deep inside the cabinet and emptied out the clothes inside.

"The punishment for the loser is to wear this outfit; each loss adds one hour to their time limit."

"How about we reduce the time by one hour for every win?"

An Lan and the others stepped forward and glanced at the clothes; their faces instantly turned bright red.

"Where did you get these... clothes?"

But Xia An poured out only four sets of battle suits—

They were students, teachers, flight attendants, and nurses—not even the formally employed kind.

It's riddled with flaws!

Although they couldn't discern the symbolism, they could still tell that the clothes were indecent.

Xia An smiled.

"Li Jia obtained it through special channels, and I kept it because I found it interesting."

"So, tell me, are you going to play or not?"

His eyes gleamed; it had all been dark before, and they hadn't lit any lamps.

This suit isn't very useful normally, but today is a different story.

An Lan glanced at Xia An, a strange light flashing in her eyes, and gritted her teeth, saying:

"Play!"

"If I lose, I'll wear this."

As she spoke, she picked up the flight attendant's uniform.

Li Yuxue glanced at Xia An with a half-smile, then picked up the teacher's set.

Luo Yunshu glanced at Ye Wan'er and quickly chose the nurse's outfit.

Helpless, Ye Wan'er picked up the last set of clothes with a flushed face.

At this time,

An Lan, as if remembering something, said with a half-smile, "Xia An, what if you lose?"

Upon hearing this, the other three all looked over, their eyes filled with inscrutable expressions.

Xia An smiled. "If I lose, you can do whatever you want with my posture."

"Tch~"

The four of them scoffed and didn't take it seriously.

"Come on, come on!"

"There are five of us, and we'll play Red Ten. No one will be left out."

……

While Xia An was having a great time, Ye Qingxuan and the others had already started working.

The main body, the illusory body, Ye Qingxuan, and Kong Qingci led seven illusory bodies to harvest wheat.

Seeing that the group had come together, Luo Zhongqian simply assigned them to Kong Yuming's team.

Based on this, Kong Yuming further divided the area into areas that each person was responsible for.

morning,

Everyone was harvesting wheat and stacking it in the field, and then people would carry it back in the afternoon.

Xia An has memories of Yang Yanjun, Lu Xingyuan, and Qin Yu, and is no stranger to harvesting wheat.

He organized and integrated those techniques, improved and optimized them, and gave them all to the illusionary body.

Therefore, the main body, the illusory body, and the five illusory bodies including Yang Yanjun moved very quickly.

As for the seven female phantoms, they maintained a steady pace, avoiding any unnecessary prominence.

Since everyone was responsible for the same area, the phantoms simply rearranged the areas.

One minute you cut the area I was responsible for, the next minute I cut the area she was responsible for.

Nobody cares about this.

The person in charge of recording work points only needs to see that the work is done; whoever does the work is responsible.

Lu Xingyuan and Qin Yu were also in this team, and they specifically requested to be placed in the middle of the group.

Ye Qingxuan and Kong Qingci were initially worried, but they discovered that the two of them would also occasionally cut into the areas that the people next to them were responsible for.

Upon seeing this, the two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise and uncertainty.

But the two didn't ask any more questions, planning to ask Xia An about the situation when they got back.

On the other side, the areas allocated to Yang Yanjun's family were connected.

He walked in the middle, and when he cut, he directly divided up 30% of the area for both Sun Wei and Zhou Jiajia.

Even so, he kept pace with the two of them, moving very quickly.

Seeing this, Sun Wei frowned slightly, "Jun'er, we can do it, don't tire yourself out."

Yang Yanjun shook his head, "I can do it. You guys do what you can, and rest when you're tired."

As he spoke, he continued bending down to cut wheat.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Jiajia's expression shifted slightly, but she said nothing.

Compared to those two places, Yang Yanqiu's situation was much more normal.
