The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 184 Incident_1

Xu Keqing climbed naked from the bed, meticulously cleaned Li Qing’s body, and said softly, "You should leave first, and I’ll call you if there’s anything."

Li Qing looked into Xu Keqing’s soft and enchanting eyes and understood the hidden meaning behind her words.

He nodded, pulled on his pants, and leaned over to kiss Xu Keqing, "Then I’ll head back first."

"Mm," Xu Keqing responded gently.

After leaving the consulting room, Li Qing didn’t hurry away but instead stood quietly at the door, listening to the movement inside.

Not having succeeded with Mrs. Lu today had left him very disappointed.

He wanted to hear what Mrs. Lu really thought of him.

Soon, there were very low voices coming from the consulting room.

"Why did you suddenly become unwilling?" Xu Keqing’s voice drifted faintly through the crack of the door.

"His thing is too big; I’m a bit scared," Mrs. Lu said with embarrassment.

Xu Keqing laughed, "You’ve stuffed in such long equipment, and you’re scared of his?"

"It’s not what I meant. My husband may not be very capable, but he occasionally takes an interest. If he discovers it, he will definitely beat me to death. I saw it very clearly just now; three or four of my husband wouldn’t match up to this young man, given that size, how much do you think it would stretch?" Mrs. Lu sounded somewhat troubled.

Xu Keqing chuckled, then lowered her voice, "I don’t know how much it can stretch, but it really fills you up, very satisfying. And he lasts a long time too, at least half an hour without much effort."

"You forgot I have a husband too, even if it’s discovered, it’s not a big deal, blame it on the machinery."

"Besides, just relax, men are usually quite careless, they won’t notice."

"Who pays attention all day to whether you’re looser or tighter down there after he’s done?"

"I guess it seems so..." Mrs. Lu seemed to be convinced.

"What do you mean ’it seems so’? You shouldn’t have hesitated today," Xu Keqing said softly, reproaching, "Do you know how hard it was for me to create this opportunity? Who knows if he’d be willing to do this again next time."

"Keqing, if I were to just sleep with him directly, do you think he would agree?" Mrs. Lu asked.

"Directly? I’ll have to try and see, but with Mrs. Lu’s looks and figure, he probably won’t refuse," Xu Keqing said.

"What are you saying, I’m getting old," Mrs. Lu said with some anguish, "You try it, let me know if there’s news, I have to go back now, I’ve been out for too long today."

Li Qing quickly tiptoed away.

Mrs. Lu was actually considering sleeping with him directly.

How could he possibly refuse?

He was only too eager.

Although Mrs. Lu was indeed a bit older, she took very good care of herself.

She had a pleasant appearance, smooth and fair skin, a seductive and graceful figure, and an extraordinary aura.

No man would likely refuse such a woman.

After leaving gynecology, Li Qing went to surgery to have the stitches on his wound removed before the end of his shift.

The wound had completely healed.

The doctor merely prescribed an ointment for Li Qing to apply to the wound several times a day.

It was mainly to prevent inflammation at the stitch holes after removal.

Other than that, there were no more issues.

When Li Qing returned to the village, it was still early.

Han Mei and Tian Yue’e were not at home.

Li Qing guessed they might be at Wenguan Garden and didn’t call.

After making himself a cup of tea and resting for a while, he grabbed a sack and headed to Wenguan Garden.

As he expected, Han Mei, Tian Yue’e, and the couple Yang Xuelan were all there.

"Qingzi, the village chief came by earlier and said that the reservoir might be releasing water these days. Are you planting autumn fields? If you are, you’ll have to clean up the ditches quickly these next couple of days," Han Mei called out from a distance.

"I still plan to plant," Li Qing said.

Even though he now could earn in one day what used to take him half a year.

But the land, he didn’t want to let go.

For a farmer to stop farming was like descendants abandoning the ancestral temple.

"Then you should stop picking and get to cleaning up the ditches right away. There isn’t much left now, and the few of us should be able to finish picking in two or three more days," Han Mei shouted.

"Alright, then I’ll go tidy up the ditches," Li Qing responded, picked up his sack, and went back home to switch it for a shovel.

There was no fixed time for the reservoir to open its floodgates.

It was generally done on short notice when the crops were severely affected by a lack of water.

Like this year, after summer began, there had barely been any rain, and the ground was so dry it was nearly cracking.

For the smooth tilling of the autumn fields, releasing water to retain moisture was inevitable.

Just as Li Qing had nearly finished cleaning out the ditches, Han Mei suddenly called, "Qingzi, have you finished? The reservoir has already started to release water. Hurry up!"

"Why are they releasing water at night?" Li Qing was somewhat frustrated.

Releasing water at night came with many hidden dangers.

If something were to be damaged by the water, it would be very hard to spot.

He had no idea what those in charge were thinking.

The fields had been thirsting for so long, there was no need to rush in just one night.

"I don’t know either, I just heard the village chief announcing it on the loudspeaker, and I guessed you might not hear it from so far away, so I hurried to tell you. Hurry up," Han Mei said.

"Sister-in-law, I’ve almost got it sorted. Are you and Tian Yue’e going to water your fields too?" Li Qing asked.

"We’ve already got ours sorted out, you don’t need to worry about it," Han Mei said, "I’m hanging up now."

After hanging up the phone, Li Qing didn’t wait long at the edge of the field before he heard the sound of water rushing down through the ditches.

By then, the sky had almost completely darkened.

Across the distant fields, one could see villagers with flashlights, all busy directing water through channels.

Li Qing waited until the fields had nearly enough water and there seemed unlikely to be any dangers before he finally went back home.

The house was brightly lit, and the kitchen was filled with the scent of stir-fried dishes and the cheerful voices of two women. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Li Qing washed his hands and entered the kitchen.

Tian Yue’e was tending the fire, while Han Mei was stir-frying.

Two graceful figures each busied with their tasks, a pleasing and delightful sight.

The rich aroma of meat wafted from the pot. Li Qing sniffed, "We’re having a special meal tonight."

"Made you an old hen to replenish your strength," Tian Yue’e said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law is always worried about me wearing you out."

"Just frying up some chicken, and you make it sound so fancy; you’re really something," Han Mei said with a laugh.

Li Qing smiled and helped to bring out two plates of already stir-fried vegetables.

Whenever Han Mei cooked something tasty, in Tian Yue’e’s mouth it always became something to nourish him.

Li Qing had long grown accustomed to this.

Tian Yue’e’s teasing words were still just a tad behind Xu Keqing’s.

A generous platter of chicken, along with three vegetarian dishes, made dinner particularly lavish.

While the three of them were eating, Gao Li suddenly burst in, looking panicked.

"Qingzi, something’s happened!"
