Chapter 624: Chapter 624: Zheng Xuewen, Come Help Me
In the following days, Yunyi was busy every day until all the collected herbs were made into pills, and only then did she have some free time.
Before leaving, she specially invited a few people she got along well with and those from the health room for a meal.
Huo Jingrui and Yunyi had the same idea and came over together, buying three pounds of pork on the way. The few helpers laughed and joked, "You really are an engaged couple with a strong bond."
Early in the morning, Yunyi went up the mountain and caught three wild chickens and two wild rabbits. Qiao Wenyu and Zheng Xuewen borrowed fishing nets from the family compound nearby and brought over three fishes weighing about two pounds each for the lunch.
Adding the pork Huo Jingrui brought, it was perfect.
In the kitchen, Ye Wenhui, Wei Zijia, and Chen Xiaojuan from the health room were helping Yunyi, while in the courtyard, Huo Jingrui had Qiao Wenyu and Zheng Xuewen processing the wild chickens and rabbits.
Ye Wenhui felt reluctant to have Yunyi leave: "Sis, when you leave, I won’t be used to it."
Wei Zijia bluntly said, "It’s not your sister you’re reluctant about, it’s your private kitchen, isn’t it?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaojuan burst into laughter, "Look at Sister Wenhui’s expression, she’s totally been caught out."
Yunyi pretended to hold her heart and feigned sadness, "You really break my heart."
Ye Wenhui stomped her foot, "Zheng Xuewen, come help me, they’re ganging up to bully me."
Zheng Xuewen, with chicken feathers still on his hands, ran in, and the laughter in the kitchen grew even louder, leaving Zheng Xuewen puzzled, "What’s going on?"
Ye Wenhui accused the others, "They’re saying I’m not unwilling about my sister leaving but the occasional private kitchen treats."
Zheng Xuewen simply asked, "Are you unwilling about your sister or the private kitchen?"
As soon as he said this, Ye Wenhui raised her hand to hit him, but Zheng Xuewen was quick, turning and running as she chased him, laughter ringing through the courtyard.
In that moment, Ye Wenhui’s reluctance was diluted quite a bit.
With more hands, the work went quickly, and once the dishes were ready, Huo Jingrui took over the cooking: "Yi’er, go chat with them, I’ll do the cooking."
This scene made Wei Zijia and Ye Wenhui envious again.
Qiao Wenyu and Zheng Xuewen had to promise to seriously learn cooking in the future, only then were they released.
Chen Xiaojuan, watching the fun, was wide-eyed: You can do this? Truly a learning moment.
When all the dishes were finished, Qiao Shaoguo and Director Liu, as if on cue, appeared in the courtyard.
Yunyi said to Chen Xiaojuan, "Xiaojuan, can you do me a favor and call them over for the meal?"
The people from the health room, already smelling the food, didn’t hesitate when Chen Xiaojuan came to invite them, the scent of the meat was just too tempting.
Qiao Shaoguo directly brought over the relationship transfer proof, "Your leaving is not only a loss for Hua’an but might also leave nearby villagers unaccustomed for a while."
Doctor Qiu nodded in agreement, "Thankfully, Doctor Chu painstakingly made a batch of pills, which can help us buffer a bit."
Qiao Shaoguo turned to Doctor Qiu, "How’s your learning going?"
Doctor Qiu smiled and nodded, "We’ve learned it, though the quality certainly can’t match the pills made by Doctor Chu."
Today, with all the hard dishes, everyone was thoroughly enjoying it.
Qiao Shaoguo looked at Yunyi, "Hua’an Farm Reclamation always welcomes you back."
His eyes were full of sincerity when he said this.
Huo Jingrui heard and replied, "My Yi’er is just going to climb higher, you can forget about it."
