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

Xia An quickly stepped forward and parted the reeds, where he saw Chen Zhiyi gently rubbing her thigh.

Seeing the reeds being parted, she looked somewhat panicked and was about to flee with the basin of water.

Of course,

She glanced back and saw that the person who came was Xia An, and her face lit up with joy.

"summer……"

She was about to call out "Brother Xia" when she saw two people appear behind Xia An, and quickly stopped herself.

"Xia...Xia, the educated youth, it's you guys."

As she spoke, she twisted the hem of her clothes with her small hands, appearing somewhat flustered and nervous.

"You are... Comrade Chen Zhiyi, right? Comrade Yang... Yanqiu asked me to pass on a message to you before, I still remember it."

Xia An laughed, then seemed to realize something and said embarrassedly:

"I accidentally dropped a pebble and it hit you. I'm sorry."

"N-nothing...it's nothing, I..."

Chen Zhiyi quickly waved her hand, almost blurting out Xia An's previous kindness.

But upon catching sight of Luo Yunshu and the other person, he quickly swallowed what he was about to say and instead said, "I'm fine, Xia Zhiqing, you don't need to worry about it."

"How can I not care?"

Xia An shook her head and said, "After all, I was in the wrong first, so I should apologize and make amends. How about this..."

"Yunshu, go get two crucian carp as an apology for accidentally hitting Comrade Chen."

"No...no need."

Chen Zhiyi quickly waved her hand, her little face full of panic and unease, "Xia...Xia Zhiqing, I'm fine, you don't need to pay."

Luo Yunshu didn't think much of it.

Whatever Brother Xia An says goes, it's just two crucian carp anyway.

She quickly ran over and grabbed two crucian carp, putting them directly into Chen Zhiyi's basin of water.

Seeing this, Chen Zhiyi wanted to say something, but Xia An waved his hand and said:

"Alright, the apology and compensation have been given, let's put this matter behind us for today."

"Comrade Chen, we'll head back now."

With that, he smiled and turned to leave with Luo Yunshu and the other person.

Watching the three leave, Chen Zhiyi glanced blankly at the wriggling crucian carp in the basin.

She touched her thigh, which didn't hurt at all, and looked puzzled, murmuring:

"I really don't feel any pain, Brother Xia, why won't you listen to my explanation?"

She hesitated for a moment, then picked up the basin of water and left the riverbank, hurrying home.

She scooped some water to keep the fish in, and hung the clothes out to dry in another basin under the basin.

Then, looking at the two fish in the basin, she said with a conflicted expression:

"What should we do?"

"Should I ask Sister Yang again? But last time I did as she said, and the fish jumped into my basin by itself, but my older brother and the others didn't believe me."

"In the end, didn't you still tell the truth?"

……

While Chen Zhiyi was struggling with her decision, Xia An and the other two had already returned to Luo Yunshu's house.

Luo Yunshu found a large basin, poured all the fish into it, and scooped water to keep them alive temporarily.

She looked at the fish in the basin and exclaimed in amazement:

"It's only been a short time, and you've already achieved so much. Brother Xia An is amazing."

Li Yuxue nodded in agreement, "It's really amazing, I was completely stunned."

As she spoke, she glanced at Xia An, a hint of interest flashing in her eyes.

At this moment, the promise Xia An made—"to make her well-fed and clothed, and not to make her work too hard"—remained true.

She believed it.

This man can do it.

But when she thought about how she was a jinx to husbands, she hesitated. Did she deserve it?

perhaps……

Li Yuxue glanced at Luo Yunshu beside her, and a thought began to sprout in her mind and quickly grew strong.

at this time,

Xia An didn't notice the expressions on their faces. He looked up at the dark clouds on the horizon.

He feigned doubt and said, "It really does feel like it's going to rain, but my judgment should be correct. How strange!"

Hearing this, Luo Yunshu finally remembered the threat of the torrential rain from the sky.

With a serious expression, she said, "Brother Xia An, let's go collect the herbs first. Uncle San and the others should already be making preparations."

"Okay!" Xia An nodded. "I'll take two crucian carp over to Uncle Xie and the others."

Even Xie Weiguo knew to cover for him, so how could he be impolite?

Does he not know whether anyone was around last night or whether anyone was eavesdropping?

He found it strange that Xie Weiguo and the others would let Ye Wan'er wait for him alone. Weren't they afraid of something going wrong?

What if?

"Sister Yuxue, are you going to wait for us here, or come over together?"

Luo Yunshu asked,

Li Yuxue shook her head, "I'll just wait here, you guys go ahead."

"In that case, Yunshu, you stay with Sister Yuxue, I'll go, it won't be much."

As Xia An spoke, he grabbed two crucian carp from the basin, stunned them, and carried them out with his bare hands.

Luo Yunshu hesitated for a moment, glanced at Li Yuxue beside her, and did not follow.

"Sister Yuxue, let's go inside!"

"Um!"

Li Yuxue nodded, but suddenly grabbed her hand and asked with a smile, "Yunshu, do you like Xia Zhiqing?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yunshu suddenly felt as if she had been stung, and quickly withdrew her hand.

"No way! Don't talk nonsense!"

But her face flushed, and she seemed a little nervous, though not too obviously.

Li Yuxue smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. Who wouldn't like someone as outstanding as Xia Zhiqing? If you don't hurry, you might regret it later."

Luo Yunshu's expression tightened as she thought of the four people living in her house, feeling a strong sense of urgency.

She considers herself to be quite good-looking, but her skin tone and figure are far inferior!

"Sister Yu... Sister Yuxue, I... am indeed quite close to Brother Xia An, can you teach me?"

As Luo Yunshu spoke, she felt her heart pounding like a drum and her cheeks burning hot.

Li Yuxue chuckled softly, "Let's go inside and talk."

As he spoke, he pulled Luo Yunshu into the house.

the other side,

Xia An glanced at the sky; dark clouds were gathering on the horizon and slowly moving toward them.

rain?

Xia An wouldn't allow it!

Xia An smiled slightly, "My heart is the heart of heaven, skill triggered!"

In an instant, a gentle breeze swept by.

It wasn't an uncomfortable, hot, dry wind, but rather a slightly dry, cool easterly wind.

The wind dispersed the sweltering heat.

It also blew away the clouds on the horizon, scattering them in all directions, like cotton wool being torn apart.

The oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe suddenly dissipated under the gentle breeze.

Xia An smiled slightly and walked briskly toward the Xie family's residence.

The weather for the next seven days will be:

The sun was high in the sky but not blazing; thin clouds obscured it, and a cool breeze carried a slight chill.

The sun wasn't too harsh, and a refreshing easterly breeze would occasionally blow, dispelling the muggy heat.

After nightfall, the temperature drops quickly, and there will be a cool evening breeze.

It's rainless and not hot, making it suitable for working in the fields and building houses.

This weather will last for seven days.

Or perhaps, this kind of weather will only end once his house is built!

We can't let this sudden downpour delay his move into his new house!

……

Construction site,

A refreshing easterly wind swept in, allowing Luo Shutong and his entourage, who had been preparing for a downpour, to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Great! With this easterly wind blowing, it's unlikely to rain today."

Uncle Luo let out a long sigh of relief and shouted loudly:

"Everyone, give it your all! The weather's perfect for work this afternoon. Let's work harder and get this house up and running quickly!"

"Alright!"

Everyone responded enthusiastically.

A gentle breeze brought a refreshing coolness, and my hands felt stronger.

……

In the fields,

A gentle breeze brought a refreshing coolness.

Luo Zhongqian and his companions, who were originally preparing to invite people home to take shelter from the rain, couldn't help but be delighted.

"Looks like we don't need to."

The group exchanged smiles.

In the fields, the team members, who were feeling unwell all over, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Very good,"

"Finally, it's no longer stuffy. It was so uncomfortable just now."
