Chapter 537: 537. Young people, enjoy life in time_1 Chapter 537: 537. Young people, enjoy life in time_1 Night fell.

Logically speaking, contemporary college students wouldn’t have such healthy routines, putting down their phones as early as ten o’clock.

But… who made them follow Professor Song?

The once joyful event of becoming Professor Song’s graduate student had become a painfully early routine.

After all, it was good enough for such a big shot to attend class, let alone take students under his wing. Perhaps it was because he hadn’t mentored students for many years and had only worked with experienced assistants, so he had little experience with students. After meeting the three young people and choosing their topics, it was only natural for them to be taken to the fields…

Although now with mechanized operations, there wasn’t much need to work with one’s hands. But with the initial experimental fields divided into many different sections and varieties, it was more efficient to do the work manually rather than operate the machinery!

And them, despite studying agriculture, how often had they actually worked in the fields?

Forced into a corner, they evolved step by step from graduate students to the most skillful farmers… The hardships involved were truly unspeakable.

So, after such a long time, everyone had rather stable routines.

But tonight…

The three disciples lying on their simple beds tossed and turned, finding sleep elusive.

“Hey…” Tai Xiaodong could not hold it in any longer and whispered to Qi Lin on the side, “Are you asleep?”

Qi Lin, lying rigidly on his mat, stared at the pitch-black ceiling with a blank expression that no one could see in the dead of night:

“I’m asleep.”

Tai Xiaodong: …

“Cut it out, don’t pretend. Don’t think I don’t know how much you were hiccupping from eating watermelon tonight!”

“What about you?” Qi Lin shot back, “How many months have you been lying there?”

Tai Xiaodong couldn’t help but touch his belly, which was rising and falling, and decided to stop the fraternal wounds: “So, what are we eating for breakfast?”

He dreamed aloud, “If we could have meals like this every day, do you think the teacher would stay longer? It’s not like I’d be eating for free; I can work quite well.”

After he finished speaking, Professor Song, who had been quiet until now, also spoke softly, “There is such a plan, but it’s not for the food. It’s because the seeds on the market are a mixed bag. Once I’m done with the planning, I can check with other agricultural institutes for stable nurseries or seeds.”

Tai Xiaodong was startled, “Whoa… Teacher, you’re not asleep?”

Professor Song’s voice became even colder, “Mm, not asleep.”

They had eaten too much, definitely eaten too much.

He didn’t say it, but both Tai Xiaodong and Qi Lin understood and rolled over.

The old wooden bed was still sturdy, and at everyone’s request, the mattresses that were used to buffer the hardness were put away, replaced by a greenish straw mat…

Whoever was waiting desperately for the straw mats to be stocked at the Peach Treasure Shop had no idea that they were being snapped up as soon as they were listed purely because someone was intercepting them like this…

“Have you noticed that the nights in the village are really cool! There’s no air conditioning or fans, but it doesn’t feel hot at all.”

Tai Xiaodong rolled over again and felt a coolness all over his body, which was incredibly comfortable in the middle of the night!

Qi Lin also thought it was true: “These homemade mats are really nice. I want to take one home when we leave.”

Professor Song didn’t speak. He thought it was indeed quite comfortable and wanted one for himself.

They say it’s foldable so that it can be carried everywhere in the future, which would be convenient for them.

Tai Xiaodong spoke pensively, “Didn’t you see the price?”

Tonight, while chatting, they learned that most of the home’s farm products were sold through the Peach Treasure Shop. Tai Xiaodong asked for the link specially and scrolled through it before going to sleep, which instantly dispelled his drowsiness.

Of course, what’s most prominent in the Peach Treasure Shop is that statement written at the very top–

[Customer service is on vacation, responses from the shop may be delayed. Orders placed before 3 PM will be sent by Wind Speed Express on the same day; orders after 3 PM will have to wait until the next day, please place orders on your own.]

This notice was Song Tan’s request.

Anyway, there wasn’t much left in the shop now, and everyone who wanted to buy didn’t have a starting point. Otherwise, why would she be willing to let her excellent cousin have a long vacation?

However, Tai Xiaodong didn’t notice that. He simply saw the price of the grass mat.

Looking at the grass mat they had laid out, which seemed rather ordinary and at most a bit greener, how could it cost four figures?

But then he thought, that’s not wrong! A good handmade one really does cost that much now.

Now lying on it, the smell of fresh grass was indeed worth it!

Speaking of the price, Qi Lin also felt the pinch, “Let it go, we young people shouldn’t fuss over such external possessions.”

He glanced at his phone: it was ten forty already!

Haven’t gone to bed at this hour, aren’t they tired from running around all day?

No!

Qi Lin sat up, turning over: “I ate too much watermelon and keep wanting to go to the toilet… I’m going to go to the bathroom.”

Tai Xiaodong also made a sound of agreement: “I’ll go in a bit, too.”

The bathroom in the corner of the yard was certainly adequate; he was just a bit of a procrastinator.

But he couldn’t delay any longer, it was really time to sleep. He had heard that some people started working around five in the morning… It seems everyone’s routine is the same in the summer.

Qi Lin opened the door of the room.

In an instant!

A wave of heat from the height of summer hit him in the face. Even at night, it hadn’t lessened at all, causing his originally refreshed body to break out into a thin layer of sweat.

He paused for a moment, and then silently headed for the toilet. When he came back and lay down, he turned over several times before he finally made up his mind–

As Tai Xiaodong was preparing to get up, he heard him say faintly, “This grass mat, I’m set on buying it. We young people should enjoy life while we can, fully relish it!”

Tai Xiaodong: …

Although he was puzzled, he didn’t say anything, muttering to himself, “Just said it was cool, indeed you can’t move, stand up and you feel hot instantly… ”

Until he also turned and opened the door of the room.

“–Damn, why is it so hot outside?!”

On the bed, Professor Song also silently turned over.

…

To be honest, Song Tan really intended to make a sincere offer, since it was free of charge, right?

But unexpectedly, early the next morning, all three of them said they wanted a grass mat. Professor Song even bought mats for his wife, daughter, and granddaughter and shipped them out!

The students weren’t indifferent to their families; they just genuinely didn’t have enough money to spend freely.

In fact, Song Tan had intended to give the mats to just the three of them, but Professor Song wouldn’t agree to it no matter what.

There they were, happy to get over seven thousand yuan early in the morning, feeling quite mixed inside.

Watching them full of vigor, she asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”

Yan Ran nodded: “Pretty well.”

She could tell that the house probably didn’t accommodate outsiders, so she felt a bit uneasy going up there yesterday. But unexpectedly, after spreading out the grass mat, she slept like a log!

It wasn’t until she woke up in the morning that she realized she was sleeping in the small bedroom near the door, which was particularly quiet.

And after stepping out, that super large living room and balcony were really enjoyable as well.

If she had to mention something not so great…

“Sigh, I ate too much watermelon and ran to the bathroom several times at night.”
