The house that Xu Jing rented was fully furnished, and there were not many things to buy.

Qi Yunzhi first went with him to buy basic daily necessities such as mats, buckets, clothes hangers, etc. The two tidied up a bit, and stayed in this house that night.

Xu Jing cooks with a newly bought pot, and he borrowed the firewood from the neighbor.There is no gas here, and most people use earthen stoves to cook by burning firewood and briquettes.

Electricity is much more expensive than firewood and briquettes. Xu Jing inquired about it. He originally wanted to buy an electric frying pan, but he quickly gave up the idea when he heard the price.

Xu Jing walked around, counted things, and muttered, "After school starts and I live here, I have to go to the market to buy firewood and briquettes, and I have to buy vegetables. The cost is not small. Sigh, it's nothing to eat. "

Qi Yunzhi laughed and said, "It's only a few dollars, so it's worth your worry?"

"I'm used to being poor. I can't just resell ginseng all the time. Otherwise, no matter how careful I am, it will inevitably show signs after a long time. At that time, people will find out that there is something strange about my side, and it will be difficult to live in the future."

Qi Yunzhi paused for a moment, then said: "For the first half a year, let's use the savings first, and I will find a way later."

"Brother Qi, what can you do?" Xu Jing looked at his expression and said cautiously: "We can't do illegal and criminal things."

Qi Yunzhi said gently: "Don't worry, don't do anything illegal. I haven't figured it out yet. I'll tell you what I'm going to do after a while."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Xu Jing didn't ask, but just nodded.

After eating, the two of them took turns to take a bath, went back to the bedroom early to sleep, and had to get up early the next day.

Back in the living area of ​​Renyuan, the first thing Xu Jing did was to inspect his angelica and lotus root in the field, and there were still some fish left in the field.

Xu Jing went down to the field and saw the dark fish ridges in front of him. He just wanted to eat fish, so he caught two on the spot, strung them with grass on the side of the road, and carried them back.

Before returning home, Xu Jing picked a lot of fresh peppers in a corner of the angelica field, and picked the ripe eggplants and beans, and put them back in cloth bags.

Qi Yunzhi was cooking at home the two big edible birds he caught on the road. These two big birds weighed more than two catties, comparable to a hen, and looked very plump.Wild birds are tougher, chewier, and fresher than domesticated chicken.

Xu Jing didn't like doing things like bloodletting and plucking hair, so Qi Yunzhi took care of all these things after he woke up.

Chop off the head, tail, and claws of the wild bird, take out the internal organs and wash them, and throw away the intestines. Qi Yunzhi put the cooked big bird in a clean basin, and waited for Xu Jing to come back for further action.

Xu Jing returned happily with the fish and vegetables, saw that the big bird had already cooked it, and said greedily, "Brother Qi, cut the fish first, and I will stew the bird soup."

Put a whole big bird in a pot under cold water, put onion knots and ginger, wait for the water in the casserole to boil, Xu Jing carefully skims off the foam with a spoon, and when the soup is almost stewed, add all kinds of delicious mushrooms picked on the way back kind.

Another big bird was cut into pieces, the dried bamboo shoots had already been soaked, Xu Jing chopped ginger, bright red and yellow peppers, garlic and other ingredients, and put them aside.

Yu Xujing is going to cook sauerkraut fish. The side dish is sour taro seedlings. Cut the taro seedlings into cubes, squeeze out the water, and fry them in a white pan. Then heat the cold oil in the pan, add garlic, pepper, ginger slices, and salt Saute together.Stir-fried taro seedlings are served, and the fish bones, fish heads and tails that have been sliced ​​separately are put into the pan and fried until both sides are browned. Fish fillets, served as soon as the fillets are cooked.

Three dishes and one soup for dinner, dried bamboo shoots and bird heads, boiled fish fillets with sour taro seedlings, fried eggplant, bird meat and mushroom soup.

Xu Jing carefully blew the cold soup and took a sip. The soup was fresh and sweet, not to mention delicious.

The fried meat with dried bamboo shoots is spicy and chewy, and the sizzling hot oil combines the freshness of birds and dried bamboo shoots, with just the right amount of spiciness. Xu Jing feels that he has no pressure to eat three bowls of rice.

What surprised Xu Jing the most was the boiled fish fillet with sour taro seedlings. The taro seedlings are sour and appetizing, and the fish fillets are fresh and tender, melting in the mouth.

As soon as Xu Jing ate it, he understood why the biological energy of this batch of fish was so much higher than that of ordinary fish. This quality is really great.

Xu Jing was quite restrained, but even so, he still ate three and a half bowls of rice in one go, so full that he didn't want to move.

After resting for a long time, Xu Jing hugged his stomach and proposed to Qi Yunzhi, "Brother Qi, let's go for a walk to digest food?"

"Where do you want to go?"

"Walk around the Renyuan living area. I guess I will rarely come back in the future. While I'm still here, let's take a walk."

Qi Yunzhi pulled him up, the two locked the door, and walked slowly under the dim moonlight.

An aunt saw him taking a walk outside, and greeted him warmly: "Xiaohe, why haven't you come home so late? Have you eaten yet? Come to aunt's house for dinner."

"I just had a full meal, and I'm taking a stroll to digest my food. Thank you, auntie."

"Hey, you're welcome, then you go, my aunt has gone home to cook."

Xu Jing walked along the main road in the living area, and he inevitably ran into some people. Many people laughed when they heard that Xu Jing couldn't hold on, so they came out to digest food.

"Is the food in our living area delicious?"

Xu Jing nodded in agreement, "We have beautiful mountains, rivers, and land, and the vegetables we grow are different from others."

The other party smiled again, "Hey, then you should eat more. If you go to Nanchen to live and go to school in a few days, you won't be able to eat the food in the living area."

"Then I will come back every week, and then I will bring some food to eat in Nanchen's living area."

"It's okay, uncle will deliver some food to your house."

Xu Jing first smiled and thanked: "Thank you uncle."

As the school day approaches, Xu Jing usually stays in the field except to buy medicinal materials. There are no lotus in his lotus field, and the lotus leaves are curled and yellowed. There will be gains.

The angelica is full of vitality, and it is the critical period for the rhizome to expand. Xu Jing quietly applied spiritual fertilizer to it to ensure the nutrition of the angelica.

In the afternoon of August NO.19, Xu Jing took his notebook to find Liang Liangzi. He and a few people were better off. He wanted to meet Liangzi at Liangzi’s house and give them something.

Liang Huayu and Liang Aiguang had already arrived. Seeing Xu Jing, Liang Aiguang took the lead and said, "Xiaohe, what good things do you want to give us?"

Xu Jing looked at him and said with a smile, "You really can't guess?"

Liang Aiguang's face collapsed all of a sudden, and he sat down on the sofa with some resentment, lying on the armrest and looking at him, "I can guess, are they study materials?"

Xu Jing nodded with a smile, "Well, the knowledge points I specially sorted out are only for the sixth grade, and it shouldn't be a problem to pass the junior high school if you understand it thoroughly."

Liang Aiguang sat on the sofa and sighed, Liang Huayu's eyes lit up, looking at Xu Jing's hand full of eagerness.

Xu Jing handed him one of the notebooks in his hand, and said with a smile: "You read these knowledge points a few more times, and it will be much easier to do the questions after you form a knowledge framework. Huayu, you have good grades. If you work harder, you can go to Nanning University for the exam. Chen Yizhong also has great hopes."

Liang Huayu nodded calmly, pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, I will."

Liang Liangzi and Liang Aiguang approached, and Xu Jing distributed the remaining two notebooks to them, saying: "These three notebooks record the knowledge points of Chinese, Mathematics and Natural Sciences, you take turns to copy, one copy per person, It's time to recite it a few more times."

Liang Liangzi's mother came in with freshly cooked peanuts for Xu Jing and the others. Seeing her son flipping through the notes, and hearing that it was Xu Jing sorting out the notebooks, she was happy and called Xu Jing and the others, "Come and eat the peanuts."

"Thank you auntie."

"Thank you for what? We should thank you for remembering them, and specially sorting out the notes for them." Liang Liangzi's mother said slightly, afraid of Liang Liangzi's back, "Xiaohe has already sorted out the notes for you to remember. , don't disappoint Xiaohe's wishes."

"Mom, I see."

Liang Liangzi's mother laughed and scolded, "It's nice to say, if you don't improve your grades in the sixth grade, see how I will deal with you."

Liang Liangzi was humiliated and pushed his mother outside, "Mom, don't you want to go to the fields? It will be too late if you don't go."

Liang Liangzi's mother turned around and poked him on the head, and said to Xu Jing, "Xiaohe, you can talk here, auntie goes to the field first, and I will catch rice flower fish and loach and cook them for you later."

Xu Jing said: "Auntie, don't worry about me, I'll go back later."

"Hey, it's okay, you listen to your aunt and eat here." Liang Liangzi's mother smiled heartily, "Try my aunt's cooking too."

Xu Jing had no time to refuse again, Liang Liangzi's mother carried the hoe and bucket on her back, and hurriedly went to the field to catch loaches and rice flower fish.

Unable to resist the enthusiasm of Liang Liangzi and his mother, Xu Jing finally returned after eating at his house.

After returning home, Qi Yunzhi still helped him pack his things, clothes and food, and filled a big bag full.

Xu Jing went over to lift it, then turned to Qi Yunzhi and said, "Brother Qi, it's too heavy for us to carry."

Qi Yunzhi picked it up in the past, and said calmly: "It's okay, it's not too heavy, and it's easy to carry."

"The mountain road is so far away, it's too hard." Xu Jing disagreed, "I can buy what I need there."

"Don't take the mountain road, take the big road tomorrow, you go by bicycle." Qi Yunzhi helped him clean up, and said: "From now on, you will always take the big road, don't take the mountain road, it's not safe to walk alone on the mountain road."

"Ah?" Xu Jing stood in the same place with some disappointment, looked at Qi Yunzhi who was helping him organize his things, and asked after a while, "Aren't you going with me tomorrow?"

Qi Yunzhi looked up at him, and said, "Accompany me. Riding a bicycle is easier than walking. You go by bicycle."

Xu Jing became happy again, "Okay, then we won't bring these things with you. I will ride you by bicycle. It is not easy to carry people in the back seat if you bring things."

Just as Qi Yunzhi was about to speak, Xu Jing rushed ahead of him and said, "Brother Qi, don't walk, or I will ride a bicycle if you walk. It would be shameful for you to chase after me. I can just bring a satchel. You have to use it at home, don’t take it away, we will buy it in the Nanchen living area, it won’t cost much anyway.”

Xu Jing was not willing to take it, so Qi Yunzhi put the things back, "Please check again if you have all the documents and money in the small satchel."

"It's all here." Xu Jing looked at the small satchel, "It's complete, no problem."

Early the next morning, Qi Yunzhi cooked noodles, and the two ate a large bowl of hot noodles. Xu Jing pushed the bicycle at home, put the satchel in the basket, and let Qi Yunzhi, who had long arms and legs, sit down. In the back, set off on a bike.

People greeted Xu Jing along the way, and Xu Jing replied in unison that he was going to school.

A few days before departure, Xu Jing talked to Liang Chengxian and asked him to look at his fields more.Liang Chengxian agreed, saying that he would let the patrol team go to his field more, so that he could go to study with peace of mind.

Now the peanuts, rice, corn, etc. in the fields of each family are almost ripe. It is the time for each household to be vigilant. The patrol team will patrol several times every night. At this time, there is the least worry about thieves in the fields.

Passing through a crowded section, Xu Jing responded to Qi Yunzhi's request and released the Watchman for alert. Qi Yunzhi was pedaling a bicycle in the back seat, and Xu Jing only had to control the steering wheel and put his feet in place.

Qi Yunzhi was much stronger than Xu Jing. He pedaled very fast on his bicycle. They walked a lot farther on the main road than on the mountain road, but it was only after four o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at the Nanchen living area, and Xu Jing still had time to go out and buy a bicycle. thing.

Last time they came, they had preliminarily cleaned up the whole house, and now they are here to clean up a little more, just continue to buy daily necessities.

Early the next morning, after Xu Jing went to Nanchen No. [-] Middle School to register, he went to the market to buy an anti-W-ray device according to the locals' tips, installed one in the yard, balcony, and roof, and then bought pots and soil for planting. ginseng.
