After he had made his purchases and bid farewell to the Base Commander, he hopped onto his electric tricycle and headed towards the farm.
It was already afternoon when he arrived home. First, he stored his purchases in the storeroom. There was a note left in the house and food in the refrigerator; they had gone to work in the fields.
"They're busy right now, let's eat before we head out. I'm hungry."
Xue Dong patted his stomach and took the food out of the refrigerator to heat it up on the stove.
Liu Qian had left the meal, which she had prepared at noon. It consisted of a mixed grain rice, a pot-stewed fish served with corn pancakes, stir-fried eggplant with stewed potatoes, bottle gourd, cucumber salad, and tomatoes stir-fried with eggs.
In the summer, there's no shortage of vegetables to eat thanks to the farm's abundant harvest.
