Chen Yannan finished cleaning up the mess, and the room was spotless.
Open the windows for ventilation, otherwise the smell of men and women will be mixed together.
Good morning, Mr. Yang.
Chen Yannan had a radiant complexion and was glowing with health, clearly having been well taken care of.
It was like a dry riverbed that had been hit by a heavy rain.
"What are you doing?"
Yang Xiaoyan asked unhappily.
"Mr. Yang, I'm going back to my hometown of Chongqing later. Could you please give me some nutritional supplements?"
As she spoke, Chen Yannan pointed to the ants and other similar creatures in the corner of the room.
"Mr. Yang, I'll be leaving in a bit."
Chen Yannan said in a panic.
"I came here to pick some apples to mail to my daughter. It's inconvenient for me to climb the tree to pick them; physical labor is more suitable for men!"
Yang Xiaoyan said meaningfully.
"Why don't you just let the workers pick the apples? Why do you have to do it yourself?"
Xu Hui was not satisfied.
If it weren't for Yang Xiaoyan's phone call, we would have been preparing for a second or even third round of battles with Chen Yannan.
"I don't trust them to pick them. Besides, apples that I pick myself are more meaningful to give to my daughter!"
"Alright, you guys go ahead with your work. I'll pack my things and leave!"
Chen Yannan went back to her room.
"Give."
Yang Xiaoyan handed the bamboo basket to Xu Hui, ready to get to work.
"Stepmother, I'm the boss of a large corporation, you expect me to pick apples?!"
"What's wrong? No matter who you are, you're still my godson."
"Godson, is that a bit inappropriate?"
Xu Hui grinned mischievously.
"What are you thinking? Shameless, scumbag, scoundrel!!"
Yang Xiaoyan vented all her displeasure by hurling insults at the top of her lungs.
Thinking of giving it to Qiu Ge, Xu Hui carried a bamboo basket to the apple planting area of the orchard.
Because it's the first harvest, the trees aren't tall, so you can pick apples just by standing on the ground.
"This one is good, pick this one!"
Yang Xiaoyan was in charge.
In no time, they had picked half a bamboo basketful.
"Would you like some peaches? They'll be ripe soon."
Xu Hui asked.
These were all planted by Yongqiang before, and the ripe fruit was all harvested by Xu Hui.
"also."
The two then arrived at the peach tree planting area.
Peaches have fuzz, and if they get on your skin, they can cause itching.
Yang Xiaoyan, being a city dweller, didn't think things through. Before long, her arm was covered in peach fuzz and started to itch.
"What kind of lousy peaches did you plant? Next time, plant nectarines!"
Yang Xiaoyan complained.
"You belong to the typical type who can't sleep and stays in bed too long."
Xu Hui smiled.
"Let you laugh!"
While Xu Hui wasn't paying attention, Yang Xiaoyan took a handful of peach fuzz and had him smear it on Xu Hui's face.
"you!"
Xu Hui stared wide-eyed.
Yang Xiaoyan is so damn mischievous, regardless of whether I like her or not.
Xu Hui retaliated.
The two chased each other in the orchard.
Yang Xiaoyan, who is in her thirties, looks like a young girl; she seems very young.
hum...
suddenly.
Yang Xiaoyan was running in a hurry and didn't notice that she had bumped into a hornet's nest on a fruit tree.
A swarm of wasps charged toward Yang Xiaoyan.
"what?"
Yang Xiaoyan was terrified and stood rooted to the spot.
"Run!"
Xu Hui said urgently.
With so many wasps, getting stung would only result in swollen welts all over the body, which is bad enough, but the itching and pain at the slightest touch would be truly unpleasant.
"Where to run?"
Yang Xiaoyan screamed.
She was unfamiliar with the orchard's terrain; there weren't even any roads in the orchard.
How could it possibly outrun a wasp?
"Run west, there's a small river over there!"
Xu Hui shouted.
"West, which way is west?"
Yang Xiaoyan was completely baffled.
It was fine in the village, but once I arrived at the orchard, I lost my bearings and couldn't tell which way was which.
You're driving me crazy!
Xu Hui rushed over.
Without saying a word, he hoisted her onto his shoulder and started running like crazy.
There are many branches in the orchard, and you can easily get scratched if you're not careful.
Xu Hui had no choice but to carry her on his back; being shorter would make it less likely for her to get hurt.
When he carried her running, Xu Hui held her up by two pieces of leather drum.
In particular, the two headlights, like two hot water bottles, swayed on Xu Hui's back.
Xu Hui exercises regularly and walks briskly, arriving at the small river to the west in no time.
Without saying a word, he jumped in.
The water is about 1.5 to 1.6 meters deep and crystal clear.
The area was completely dry a while ago; Yongqiang tried to drill dozens of wells but couldn't get any results.
Fortunately, it rained heavily for several days.
Wow...
A huge splash of water
The chasing wasps had no choice; they couldn't swim, and hovered on the surface of the water for more than ten seconds before dispersing.
puff!
Xu Hui emerged from the water.
Yang Xiaoyan almost suffocated, but luckily she had taken swimming lessons with Qiu Ge before.
"so close!"
Xu Hui let out a breath.
Yang Xiaoyan was exhausted. Although she didn't run, being carried was also physically demanding.
