NOVEL NEXT Chapter 132
Chapter 132 – Evil Queen 12
Chen Hengfeng hasn’t heard Ai Qian’s voice for almost two days. While he was torn in his heart, he was blaming Ai Qian at the same time. If I don’t go to you, can you not find me?
It is said that men and women are equal now, why is it always the man who takes the initiative to make phone calls?
The secretary saw that Mr. Chen was struggling, but he didn’t know why he was struggling. After thinking about it, is it because Mr. Chen’s girlfriend has gone out of town that Mr. Chen is so irritable?
The secretary, who thought he was considerate, sincerely suggested: “Mr. Chen, the company has nothing to do recently. If you feel bored, why don’t you go on a trip.”
Chen Hengfeng thought about it, and felt that this was a solution. The reason why I kept thinking about Ai Qian was probably because I was too free. Go out to travel and find something to do for yourself. After a long time, he will gradually lose interest in Essie just like he did with those women before.
He looked at the secretary. He really deserved to be the secretary who had been with him for several years, and he just knew himself.
Chen Hengfeng looked at the secretary with relief and said, “Then do you have any good suggestions?”
The secretary said confidently: “Didn’t Ms. Ruan go to a place with a beautiful scenery to shoot a show, Mr. Chen, you can go too.”
Chen Hengfeng: “…”
Chen Hengfeng almost couldn’t hold back his old blood, and then he said in an indescribable tone: “Do you have a girlfriend?”
The secretary smiled shyly, “Yes.”
Chen Hengfeng said: “When you can’t meet, will you talk on the phone?”
“Of course.” The secretary said sweetly with honey in his tone, “When I’m on a business trip, I talk to my girlfriend at least three times a day, one in the morning, one in the middle of the night, and one in the evening.”
Thinking of being separated from Ai Qian, and even knowing her news through others, Chen Hengfeng felt like he had been hit by an arrow. His expression became cold and he said, “Then who took the initiative to call?”
“Of course it’s me.” The secretary said without hesitation.
“How can this be?” Chen Hengfeng exploded, “Dating is obviously a matter between two people, why can I only call her, why can’t she call you?”
“Ah…?” The secretary looked blankly at Mr. Chen who suddenly went into a frenzy. Apart from fear, he was still grateful for Mr. Chen’s concern for him. He explained to his girlfriend: “Because I think my work is important, I don’t know when I will be free, she doesn’t want to disturb me, so I will call her.”
“Oh.” Chen Hengfeng lowered his head and straightened his sleeves, which didn’t even have a single wrinkle, “Then what will happen to her if you’re so busy that you don’t call her for a day?”
“It’s not that good.” The secretary felt that the topic was a bit weird, “At worst, I’ll call again the next day.”
Chen Hengfeng was angry in his heart, and couldn’t help saying: “She doesn’t care if you don’t move, it means she doesn’t care about you at all, women are heartless!”
“Ha Qiu!”
Ai Qian sneezed, and Wang Hesong said, “Have a cold?”
“I don’t know.” Ai Qian said, “I think someone might be talking bad about me.”
Feng Yuan tied the firewood together with a rope, and said, “I found it quite easy to collect firewood. There are firewood everywhere on the mountain. Why don’t the villagers go up the mountain?”
Ai Qian shook her head and said, “Is it okay to use liquefied petroleum gas in the countryside now? The director only gave you stoves for the purpose of torturing us.”
“It’s simply too bad.” Wang Hesong said.
Feng Yan said: “But I saw cooking smoke this morning, and the villagers still burn the stove.”
Wang Hesong said: “I have been to a farmhouse before, and the villagers said that cooking on a fire stove is better, so they cook on the fire stove and use liquefied petroleum gas for cooking.”
“Stop talking.” Feng Yan said with an unbearable expression on his face: “I’m hungry for talking.”
Ai Qian smiled, and saw that a pine needle in front of her was bulging. She used a hatchet to push the pine needles away from the ground, revealing the white pine fungus.
“Hey?” Feng Yan said, “How do you know there are mushrooms here?”
Ai Qian said proudly, “I’m smart.”
“Oh, tell me.”
Ai Qian pointed to the thick layer of pine needles on the ground and said: “There are so many pine needle leaves on the ground, even if there are mushrooms, they may not be able to grow. So when I saw this bulging piece, I thought there should be something underneath.”
The three of them have already got a lot of firewood, Wang Hesong suggested: “Why don’t we also pick mountain mushrooms.”
Just do what you say, Ai Qian is okay, the other two people saw a bulge and cut the knife, tossing the mountain into a pit. But the harvest is quite rich, and they are getting a lot of mountain mushrooms.
Ai Qian picked it out, and singled out the more precious mountain mushrooms. She said: “These are very valuable to sell outside, and some villagers will also go up the mountain to pick them up and sell them. They can be used to exchange food at the villagers’ homes.” Director I said I couldn’t borrow or buy it, but I didn’t say I couldn’t exchange it.”
“Yes.” Feng Yan said: “I found that your mind is very flexible.”
“I’m just so flexible.” Ai Qian said modestly, “It’s better than those who can’t use their brains.”
Feng Yan, Wang Hesong’s complexion changed at the same time, who can’t use his brain to say?
Seeing that it was already noon, the three of them went down the mountain with their harvest. The two men went down the mountain with two large bundles of firewood. These were all fallen from the trees, dried out in the sun, and not particularly heavy. Ai Qian wrapped a large bag of mushrooms in her coat, and the three went down the mountain happily.
When they got back to the small western building, they found that the other three had come back a long time ago. The three of them were sitting on a stool without speaking.
Wang Hesong, acting like a big brother, saw that the three of them were silent, so he took the initiative to provoke the topic: “How is it? Is the harvest good?”
As soon as the words were finished, the three of them rolled their eyes in unison. Wang Hesong was taken aback. After he won Best Actor, how many years has no one rolled their eyes at him?
Seeing Ke De’s fair and handsome face turned red with anger, “I don’t want to be with the two of them anymore, I’ve never seen such a person before.”
The three of Ai Qian froze for a moment, and then began to ask what was going on.
It turned out that the three of them were picking mushrooms together, and Ke De was a man with an advantage in physical strength. He is often the first to discover the mountain fungus. At the beginning, the two girls got nothing at all. When Ke De discovered the mountain fungus again, Mo Yao rushed over to dig it. She had just stepped into the society, and men always let her act like a spoiled child. How could Ke De be spoiled and raised? The young master’s temper, the two quarreled.
Curd insisted that he discovered it by himself, and he would not give it if he didn’t want to. Mo Yu said that he had no manners, that he was stingy and didn’t know how to take care of girls.
The two quarreled so much that the last three went down the mountain without picking up many mushrooms.
Ai Qian looked at the food that disappeared on the table, and said, “Did you eat the food we put on the table?”
Mo Yu immediately smiled and said, “Sister Ruan Zhi, did you specially leave this for us? Where did you get the food?”
Wang Hesong said: “The director is afraid that we will be really hungry, so he gave us some food.”
Mo Yu said: “You are so kind, I starved to death when I was on the mountain.”
Ai Qian nodded with a smile. She thought the conflict was over, but Ke De suddenly stood up and kicked down the stool, saying: “Obviously it was reserved for three people, but you two ate it all!”
Everyone was taken aback, and Ai Qian blinked her eyes, not planning to say anything.
Yang Shanshan’s expression was a bit embarrassed, Mo Yu rolled her eyes and said, “I don’t know who put the food here.”
Things came to light, Mo Yu and Yang Shanshan repelled Ke De together, saw the food on the table and they shared it without leaving any for Ke De.
Seeing Ai Qian’s bag of mushrooms, Mo Yu said in surprise, “Why did you pick so many mushrooms? Is there a lot of mushrooms in the place you went to? We haven’t found many after searching for a long time. It’s great. gone.”
Feng Yuan said with a smile on his face: “If we hadn’t agreed to distribute according to work, we would really like to share with you.”
Mo Yu’s exaggerated smile froze on his face, looking extremely funny.
Ai Qian also had a look of regret, and said to Mo Yu: “Take out all your harvest, and count the number.”
Everyone took out what they had harvested, and the three of Ke De and the others picked more mushrooms than Essie alone. Ai Qian looked at the two big bundles of firewood and said, “Keep one bundle for our own use, and use the rest to exchange food with the villagers.”
Naturally, Wang Hesong and Feng Yan had no objection, and Feng Yan said, “Then how to distribute according to work?”
Ai Qian looked at the poor harvest of the three of them, and said kindly: “The food obtained is divided into three parts, the three of us get two-thirds, and the three of them get one-third.”
In fact, Essie is already very polite. As far as the three of them have gained, it would be considered polite to give a quarter.
Fortunately, the three of them were too embarrassed to divide in half, and Ke De just said: “Mine is more than the two of them, and I want one-half of that one-third.”
Yang Shanshan and Mo Yao’s faces were very ugly. As two adult women, they can only get one-sixth of the total, and it is certain that there is not enough food.
Ai Qian had no sympathy for them at all, and they took things to the villagers to exchange for food. The villagers were very enthusiastic. They not only exchanged rice, grain, oil and salt, but also specially cut fresh vegetables from the field for them, and also gave them a piece of fresh pork and half a piece of bacon.
Everyone returned with a full load of things, and Wang Hesong said with emotion: “That mother-in-law just now is really kind, and she insisted on giving such a large piece of bacon.”
Curd was really hungry. He was the only one of the six who hadn’t eaten anything since morning. He said: “Since there is food, let’s cook.”
At this moment, the director appeared and kindly reminded: “Remind you, you don’t have any bowls and chopsticks yet.”
“That’s right, what should I do?” Yang Shanshan said, “Do you want to burn the porcelain yourself?”
Ai Qian said: “If you don’t care about the shape, you can make a few out of wood.”
Another rough job, Wang Hesong took the initiative to do it, “Leave this to me, who will cook?”
Everyone looked at each other, Ai Qian said: “I will, but I need a firewood.”
“Then it’s me.” Feng Yuan said.
The remaining three young masters and young ladies looked blank, but they also knew that nothing could be done wrong, so they asked, “What can we do?”
