Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times

Su Baiyu heard this and said, "I'll pick more later, and I'll still have to pay for it, otherwise I won't pick any more."

Xia Zixuan listened to his words and smiled helplessly: "Then it's the same as before, give it to me as I said."

Mu Chenyi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

When he returns, he will ask someone to send her more things so that she won't suffer any loss.

After a while, they brought six baskets. "Master, the baskets are here."

Mu Chenyi looked over and said, "Put the ones you picked in there first, and then we'll pick them together."

The three of them said respectfully, "Yes, Master."

With the joining of Yingyi and the others, the picking speed became faster. In the time it took to stick of incense, all six baskets were full.

Xia Zixuan looked at the basket and said, "Let's carry it to the door of the shed first! Then come back and get it when you leave."

Mu Chenyi nodded and said, "Okay, put it here first!"

Su Baiyu looked at the strawberries inside. He wanted to take them back for his mother to taste, so he asked Xia Zixuan, "Is it true that we can't take the strawberries inside?"

Xia Zixuan turned her head and said, "Strawberries are not easy to carry, but if you can preserve them well, it should be fine. How about you try it?"

Su Baiyu listened and said, "Okay, we won't pick the ones that are too ripe, and then put them in straw and cotton cloth."

Xia Zixuan nodded and said, "Well, we can try. Let's go pick them! Ying San, go get two baskets and pick two first. If they are still not bad when you get to the capital, then send someone back to pick them."

Mu Chenyi thought about it and nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's pick two baskets and try it first."

Afterwards, they picked strawberries and went to other sheds to pick vegetables. On the way, Jinghe and a few others came over to help pick vegetables. It was not until the afternoon when they returned home.

As soon as the group stepped into the courtyard, they ran into Xia Meng, who said, "Girls, you're back. I was just about to go look for you!"

Hearing this, Xia Zixuan thought something was wrong and asked, "Uncle Meng, is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

Xia Zixuan said quickly: "Dinner is ready in the kitchen. I saw that you girls haven't come back for so long, so I wanted to go call you!"

Xia Zixuan nodded and said, "Okay, Uncle Meng, go tell Aunt Xiuhong that the food can be served. We will be there soon."

Xia Meng saluted and said, "Yes, young lady, I'll go to the kitchen first."

Xia Zixuan nodded, and after watching Xia Meng leave, she said to Mu Chenyi and the others, "Let's go! Go wash your hands and eat first, because you still have to go back up the mountain later."

Mu Chenyi nodded and said, "Okay."

After washing up, the group came to the dining table and saw that the meal tonight was particularly sumptuous. Su Baiyu was surprised and asked, "Zixuan, why did you prepare so many dishes tonight?"

There were chicken, duck, fish, meat, etc. on the table. It was a perfect combination of meat and vegetables, with good color, aroma and taste.

Xia Zixuan smiled and said, "Aren't you going back tomorrow? I'll prepare a sumptuous meal for you in advance, so we can have a New Year's Eve dinner together."

Mu Chenyi's heart suddenly ached when he heard this. He really wanted not to go back, but his father and mother were waiting for him in the capital, worrying about his health every day, so he had to go back.

Mu Chenyi did not hide the pain in his eyes. He said, "Okay, I'll come back early after the New Year to accompany you."

Xia Zixuan smiled and nodded, "Okay, when will you leave tomorrow?"

Mu Chenyi said, "We will leave early tomorrow morning and we will have to pass by the county government office to pick up Yue'er."

Xia Zixuan nodded to show her understanding. She said, "Then just go to the shed and get your things. I won't see you off."

She didn't like the parting scene, and she still watched them go, and in the end she was left alone.

Mu Chenyi said in a clear voice: "Okay, let's eat quickly. We can talk about it after dinner." After that, he picked up a piece of Xia Zixuan's favorite dish with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

Xia Zixuan smiled and said, "Okay, you eat too."

Su Baiyu couldn't stop eating. He finished the food in his mouth and said, "Zixuan, when I come back after the New Year, I want to eat this food again. It's really delicious."

After hearing what Su Baiyu said, Xia Zixuan said with a smile on her face: "Okay, when Second Brother Su comes back, I'll ask the kitchen to make you something you want to eat."

Su Baiyu nodded and said, "Okay, Ayi, you must come back early. Once you get used to the food here, how can you eat anywhere else?"

Mu Chenyi didn't glare at him this time, but nodded in agreement, "Yes, I will."

After an incense stick of time, the three of them finished their meal and sat down to chat. Mu Chenyi said, "It's getting late. You should go back and rest! We're going back to the mountain."
