After Lei Ming and Ji Feng finished arranging the mission, they took out two fishing rods from their bags and said to Yang Na and Lu Zhen, “Let’s go fishing. If we catch anything, we’ll have fish soup tonight.”
At first, Yang Na and Lu Zhen were puzzled. Why did Lei Ming and Ji Feng carry two huge backpacks to the vegetable field? It turned out that they were filled with fishing tools.
The two of them complained in their hearts, Forget it. You just want to fish.
After the two of them walked away, Lu Zhen and Yang Na walked into the vegetable field. The two of them specially picked the better-looking vegetables and sat under the tree to rest for a while when they were tired.
Not far away, a few cameras had been following the two of them.
Lu Zhen followed Yang Na with the basket. Yang Na was much more skilled at picking vegetables than her. It seemed like she had a certain amount of life experience. Lu Zhen imitated Yang Na and did whatever Yang Na did. It saved her the trouble of using her brain.
Lu Zhen watched as Yang Na reached out to pick a vegetable. She also reached out to the vegetable beside her. Suddenly, she felt that something was wrong with the touch on her fingertips. She looked down and saw a worm lying on the vegetables! Lu Zhen’s mind went blank for a tenth of a second before she screamed.
Yang Na was shocked. She suddenly turned around and looked at Lu Zhen. “What’s wrong?”
Lu Zhen pounced into Yang Na t s arms. “Insect, I touched an insect!” Her tone was as if her hand was about to be amputated. She was terrified.
Yang Na heaved a sigh of relief. Wasn’t it just a bug? Why was she so frightened? In Yang Na t s opinion, Lu Zhen was always so calm. She thought that she was not afraid of anything. She really did not expect Lu Zhen to be so timid.
The corners of Yang Na’s lips curled up slightly. However, she felt that it was a little impolite to smile at a time like this. Thus, she placed her hand on Lu Zhen’s back and patted it gently. Her other hand pinched Lu Zhen’s earlobe and rubbed it as she comforted her. “It’s fine, it’s fine. Don’t be afraid.’
In rural areas, if a child was frightened, the adult would hold the child in his arms and rub the child’s earlobe while comforting him.
Yang Na lived in the countryside when she was young, and her grandmother often comforted her like this. Although Lu Zhen did not know the meaning of Yang Na’s actions, she was indeed not that afraid.
Lu Zhen slowly raised her head and blushed at her fuss. “I’m sorry, I’m a little afraid of this kind of bug.”
Yang Na smiled faintly. “That’s normal. How about this? You go and rest. I’ll pick some vegetables. It should be enough for tonight and tomorrow morning. ”
Lu Zhen did not stand on ceremony with Yang Na. She did have some trauma in her heart. She felt that there was a worm hidden in the heart of every vegetable. She walked to the tree and sat on the soft grass. Her body and mind were relaxed. After staying in the city for a long time and coming to the countryside, every breath of air seemed to have a sense of freedom.
Lu Zhen leaned against the tree trunk and closed her eyes. The breeze caressed her face gently. Unknowingly, she fell asleep. In the end, she was woken up by Yang Na’s shaking. She rubbed her eyes and heard Yang Na say gently, “It’s time to go.”
Lu Zhen stood up in confusion and walked towards Yang Na.
Yang Na said helplessly, “You didn’t take your basket.”
Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment before turning to get the basket under the tree. Yang Na smiled and shook her head. It turned out that Lu Zhen was so cute in her daily life.
The two of them walked back under the light of the sunset. When they arrived at the hut, Ji Lai carried a bucket and bragged to the two of them, “l caught a small yellow croaker! The steamed soup of the small yellow croaker is delicious.’
Lu Zhen and Yang Na leaned over and saw a small fish the length of a palm swimming in the bucket with its tail wagging.
Yang Na fell silent. How could she eat such a small fish? Was this what Lei Ming and Ji Lai had gained in the afternoon? Their fishing skills were not even as good as hers.
At night, Lei Ming brought over a grill and cooked a pot of hotpot soup. Dinner was in the form of a barbecue and hotpot. The skewered pork belly was roasted on the charcoal fire. Soon, the fragrance of grease wafted out and mixed with the smoke of the charcoal fire.
Everyone chatted as they ate. The quality of Ji Lai’s emcee skills was quickly displayed. He asked Lu Zhen and Yang Na questions skillfully. He seemed to be chatting, but he actually asked many questions that could interest the audience..
