At seven o'clock in the evening, every household in Qingshan Village turned on the lights. Looking at the dim stars in the distance, the twinkling lights were like stars falling to the ground, and the cicadas hiding in the fields and woods sang in unison.
With the refreshing breeze floating in the green woods of the countryside.
In the courtyard of Li Dashan's house in the west end of the village, a large dim light bulb illuminated the entire yard.
Under the simple carport, there is a dining table with clean plates for four people. It looks quite harmonious.
"Well... I feel so full. My wife's cooking skills are really amazing. If I can eat my wife's cooking every day from now on, what else can I ask for?"
Yang Chen rubbed his bulging belly, looking like he was enjoying it, with a cigarette in his mouth.
“What a beautiful thought!”
Before he could light it, Li Xiaoran, who was sitting opposite, raised his head and glared at him.
"Know the rules!"
Yang Chen smiled and put the lighter he took out on the table.
"Snapped!"
At this moment, the father-in-law sitting next to him took out a box of 3.5-dollar cigarettes, lit them, and blew out smoke rings from his nose.
Yang Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Xiaoran.
"This is my dad!"
Li Xiaoran was actually a little proud, with a smile on his face and a mouth shape.
"A woman with double standards!"
Yang Chen secretly gave a thumbs up and made a mouth shape.
"Yang Chen, wash the dishes!"
Li Xiaoran rolled his eyes and said angrily.
"become!"
Yang Chen nodded, stood up and prepared to pack things skillfully, but was stopped by the mother-in-law next to him.
Li Xiaoran and Yang Chen both looked at Jin Mei, who had a proud face, and felt uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with a grown man smoking a cigarette? How can he go out with a big boss to make money to support his family if he doesn't smoke or drink? If there's anyone in the family who doesn't smoke, it's your dad!"
Jin Mei said, looking at Li Dashan.
Li Dashan had just taken a few breaths to feel comfortable. He was so frightened by his wife's eyes that he quickly wiped out his cigarette butts on his mille-layer cloth shoes and smiled: "I'll try my best to quit..."
"In the future, our uncle will not have to cook and wash dishes. He will be a capable man when he goes out to make money. My uncle now earns a salary of 5,000 yuan a month, and he also has shares in Jishengtang. How can he do such menial work?
Let my uncle do it!"
"From now on, it will be up to you and your daughter to wash the dishes and wipe the tables!"
Jin Mei clasped her hands on her chest and said decisively.
"Mom, I am your daughter!"
Li Xiaoran gritted his teeth angrily, and from the corner of his eyes, he wished that Yang Chen, who was making a face next to him, could be shot through the heart with thousands of arrows.
"That's it! Xiaoran, let's clean it up together!"
Jin Mei didn't give Li Xiaoran any chance and said directly.
"Then...Mom, can I go out for a walk?"
Yang Chen chuckled inwardly.
The rich son-in-law is indeed treated differently. He only gets a salary of 5,000 a month. If he gets 50,000 a month...
The more Yang Chen thought about it, the more exciting it became, and the more exciting it became, the more addictive he became.
"Go ahead and come back early."
Jin Mei smiled broadly, looking completely different from the previous two days.
"Honey, thank you for your hard work."
Yang Chen gritted his teeth and glanced at the angry Li Xiaoran. When he turned around, he lit a cigarette, hummed a song and put on his slippers before leaving the yard.
Seeing Yang Chen leaving gracefully, Li Xiaoran was so angry that his teeth itched, but he suddenly burst into laughter unconsciously.
Jin Mei and Li Dashan looked at their daughter's long-lost smile and glanced at each other, a trace of relief flashed in their eyes.
After leaving the yard, Yang Chen couldn't help but inhale the aroma coming from the fields. It was the aroma of fruits and vegetables.
Qingshan Village has a special environment. Every household grows vegetables and fruits, and no one grows food. During the summer and autumn seasons when fruits and melons mature, the whole village will be enveloped in a fragrance.
Living in such a paradise, except that the income of the villagers is not high and the quality of life is not as good as in the city, the mood is much more beautiful.
Tonight, Yang Chen rubbed his belly and did not wander to Tian Fang's house. Instead, he walked through the village with a flashlight and came to the endless fields.
Since he promised his mother-in-law to save the rotten watermelons in this place, Yang Chen must keep his word.
"Wang Hu did this very dirty thing. At least half of the watermelons on the three acres of land were ruined. If he sold them on the market, he would lose almost 7,000 yuan."
Yang Chen used the light of the flashlight to wander around the three-acre watermelon field at Li Xiaoran's house, frowning: "Fortunately, my sealed Qi has been slightly loosened during this period, otherwise it would be really hopeless."
Said.
Yang Chen looked around and made sure that no one was there before sitting cross-legged in the middle of the watermelon field.
As his breathing became rhythmic, a unique breath-taking technique followed the rhythmic expansion and contraction of the chest. The true energy hidden in the Dantian in the body began to travel along the meridians, and then entered the hands.
In the meridians.
The technique of "Overbearing Qi" starts to operate at this moment, absorbing the pure energy brought by the best moonlight essence at nine o'clock in the evening, and when it enters the body, it also gathers in the hands through the meridians.
If you look closely, you will see a weak energy fluctuating on Yang Chen's body, like thin smoke.
He grabbed the main vine in the watermelon field with both hands, and the true energy in his body slowly entered along the vine, and continued to spread to the three acres of watermelon field.
This is the "Vitality Technique", a unique skill that the master has learned since he was a child when he was asked to manage hundreds of acres of flower fields on the mountain.
The so-called vitality technique uses the vine meridians of plants as channels to transport the power of infuriating energy, thereby radiating the vitality of the plant meridians.
Just now.
Before Yang Chen came down the mountain, 99% of his true energy was blocked, so it was a bit difficult to use it.
For an entire hour, Yang Chen's body was shaking violently, and his forehead was covered with sweat.
The intense consumption of infuriating energy brought his body to its limit.
"call……"
Finally, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and the almost exhausted energy returned to his Dantian.
"Damn it, I almost didn't explain it here!"
Yang Chen staggered to his feet, feeling as if his body had been hollowed out and his head was buzzing.
He sat on the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead, holding a cigarette in his mouth to refresh himself. Then he stood up, patted the dirt on his butt, and looked at the watermelon field with satisfaction: "Although rotten watermelons can't be saved, we can't save them now."
The watermelons on the vines can grow twice as long, and their sweetness can also increase a lot. In three or four days, they should be able to sell for the price of the previous total output."
"I have to go to the county town tomorrow morning to find Sun Yahan to solve the vegetable and fruit procurement problem in the village. The awesomeness I boasted must be fulfilled..."
Yang Chen grinned, gave a wry smile, turned to look at the yard where the lights were still on, jumped out of the field, and walked toward home while humming a song.
