Chapter 64: Exchanging Vegetables with the Boss

Wang Hongyan stared at his back in a daze. She finally understood what he said and burst into tears.

She did often use her beauty to seduce young men in the production team, in exchange for them working for her in exchange for food, but she never let anyone take advantage of her.

At most, she would hold someone's hand, and if someone wanted to hug her, they would have to give her at least two taels of flesh.

There weren't many people who could afford the meat, so she didn't let anyone take advantage of her.

Why does he belittle himself like this?
"Jiang Xingye, you bastard!" Wang Hongyan cursed angrily, but she didn't dare to speak loudly. She only spoke softly, but she couldn't hate him in her heart.

He has always been such a bastard. It's a blessing that he didn't kick himself into the river today.

However, the lack of water nearby is also a factor.

Xu Qinghuan heard familiar footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Jiang Xingye approaching with a sullen look on his face. She hurriedly stopped and stood by the roadside, waiting for him to come closer. She asked with concern, "What did that woman say to you?"

Look how angry this guy is!

Jiang Xingye gave her a strange look and said bluntly, "She said she wanted to be my wife!"

"Ah?" Xu Qinghuan was greatly surprised. He told himself such words. Did he intend to treat himself as his younger brother?
In this case, she has to be more dedicated.

"What's her name?" Xu Qinghuan frowned.

She remembered that there was a supporting character who was the most beautiful girl in the production team and had always admired Jiang Xingye. However, this woman was very promiscuous. For two taels of meat, she was willing to hold hands with a man, and would let a man touch her for half a pound of meat.

She suspected that the woman just now was Wang Hongyan.

After all, a normal person would definitely not want to marry a second-rate guy with a bad reputation like Jiang Xingye. How can he support his family if he is idle and does not work?

Even if the girl is willing, her parents will not agree.

In addition, he had a bad temper. Any woman who wanted to get close to him would be scolded and cried by him. In serious cases, he would even kick her.

Jiang Xingye kept his eyes on Xu Qinghuan, not missing any expression on her face. When he saw her frown, a little joy flashed through his heart. She was not happy about someone marrying him?
"Why are you asking this?" Jiang Xingye couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips, unable to suppress it.

"Can't I ask? I'm just concerned." Xu Qinghuan touched the tip of his nose embarrassedly, poking the pebbles on the ground with his toes. "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."

After all, this is the boss's private matter, and she shouldn't ask.

Xu Qinghuan felt that he had no sense of boundaries. He waved his hand and walked towards his home. Jiang Xingye said behind him, "She is from the production team. Her name is Wang Hongyan."

"Ah!" Xu Qinghuan didn't expect it to be this person. She turned around quickly and asked, "Do you like her?"

Jiang Xingye was ecstatic, with flames dancing in his eyes. "I don't like it."

"That's good!" Xu Qinghuan didn't say much. She didn't like saying bad things about people behind their backs. Since Jiang Xingye didn't like it, there was no need to tell anyone about Wang Hongyan's affairs.

Xu Qinghuan left with the backpack on his back. Jiang Xingye stood there for a long time, feeling both happy and sad, and not knowing what to do with his mind.

He didn't dare to like her, and he knew he was not worthy.

Asking him to give up would be like asking for his life, and he was unwilling to do so.

After struggling for a long time and still getting no result, he went home dejectedly.

Yu Xiaomin and Qiao Xinyu heated up the pancakes they had in the morning, ate a little, and then went to work.

Xu Qinghuan sorted out the things in the backpack, and she took out ten kilograms of rice and flour from the space, mixed them together and put them in the cupboard. She stewed the big bones first, planning to make a dish of sweet and sour pork ribs in the evening, and then use the big bone soup as the soup base to cook a pot of hand-rolled noodles.

Perfect! It would be even better if you could add some green leaves.

Xu Qinghuan looked at the bare land in the front yard and back garden and felt a little worried.

She has to go and exchange some vegetables with others.

She could have bought some at the supply and marketing cooperative, but she went late today and the vegetables were basically sold out. Besides, not many vegetables were delivered to the commune supply and marketing cooperative every day.

Those who go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things are basically members from the surrounding area. Who doesn’t have a few rows of vegetables planted?

Xu Qinghuan immediately thought of the vegetables in her neighbor's garden. When she came to her senses, she was already standing in front of the fence at the door of Jiang Xingye's house, staring at the green and vibrant vegetable garden in a daze.

Jiang Xingye, holding a hoe in his hand, looked at her through the fence, his dark eyes unclear.

Xu Qinghuan was suddenly a little panicked. Did he think that he was here to steal vegetables?

"Brother Jiang, can I exchange some dishes with you?" Xu Qinghuan pointed with her slender, white and soft fingers at the water spinach in front of his heels, and the green onions next to it.

Noodle soup without scallions is like a human being without a soul.

"I cooked dinner tonight and will send you another portion. Can you order the dishes for me?" Xu Qinghuan smiled.

"No! No need!" Jiang Xingye refused outright, but then he added, "Pick as many as you want!"

After saying this, he stopped hoeing the fields and went into the house.

Xu Qinghuan couldn't understand why he would grow so many vegetables by himself. Each vegetable looked so juicy and healthy. This was undoubtedly the biggest temptation for Xu Qinghuan, who hadn't eaten fresh leafy vegetables for a long time.

She picked beans, two handfuls of red amaranth, a few round red tomatoes, a handful of green vegetables to put in the noodles later, and a handful of green onions.

Since the boss didn't want to eat the food she cooked, Xu Qinghuan didn't force him. However, she wouldn't take other people's things for free, so she grabbed a handful of Xirang from the space and spread it on the vegetable garden.

The Xirang in her space is a kind of soil that has spiritual energy and the ability to grow. It has the function of gathering energy and giving birth to life. It can give birth to all things and make plants prosperous.

The handful she grabbed was just enough for Jiang Xingye's vegetable garden.

After Xu Qinghuan left, Jiang Xingye came out to take care of the vegetable garden again. He pulled out all the weeds, arranged the vine racks for the beans, picked all the ripe vegetables, and neatly stacked them in his backpack.

After a while, a young man riding a big golden deer came over with a bell ringing. He stopped by Jiang Xingye's fence and propped himself up on one foot. "Brother Ye, I'll get the vegetables!"

Jiang Xingye handed him two baskets of vegetables and said, "Starting tomorrow, I won't be supplying any more vegetables."

"What?" Luo Jinhao thought there was something wrong with his ears. "We worked so hard to build this connection with the state-owned restaurant. We still earn about ten yuan a month. Why don't you provide it? There are so many dishes. Can one person finish them all?"

"If you can finish it, you can find someone else to provide for it."

Once Jiang Xingye makes a decision, no one can pull him back.

Luo Jinhao was also aware of his temper and was quite anxious. "No, you have to give a reason, right? If the purchasing department asks about it, what am I going to say?"

"Just say there's no food." Jiang Xingye turned around and ignored him, going straight into the house.

Luo Jinhao was overwhelmed, so he picked up a tomato and wiped it on his body. He took a bite and found that the taste was very special, much better than ordinary tomatoes. The juice was sweet and sour and refreshing. After swallowing it, his whole body felt refreshed.

"Brother Ye, what kind of tomatoes are these? Why are they so delicious?"

Today I will only update twice, because I need to control the word count and wait for the fourth round of PK. How well I do will depend on the support of my family. Please vote for me, I love you!
