The next morning, Lin Nian got up to cook.
Her room was separated from the kitchen and only had a bed and a dilapidated cabinet for storing things.
Lin Jianguo complained that the sound of her getting up and packing her things was too loud, so he separated a room for her, but he didn’t expect it to make things easier for her.
After calling Aunt Zhao over yesterday, she secretly climbed back to her room from the backyard. The soundproofing in this broken place was bad, and she could hear all the conversations clearly, knowing that the matter was finally resolved.
It was just a pity for her foot, which hurt even more when she woke up.
She sighed and casually made a few wild vegetable cornbread buns.
Anyway, Lin Jianguo and Lin Dong didn’t eat these coarse grains, and it would be a waste to make too much, so she simply made only her and Zhao Shuzhen’s share.
When she was almost done packing, she limped to the yard to fetch water, but was startled by a figure in the distance.
“Chen Ran?”
“What are you doing here so early in the morning?”
Chen Ran, with dark circles under his eyes, sneered at Lin Nian.
What was he doing here?
He also wanted to know what he was doing here!
Couldn’t this young couple contact each other on their own? Why did they have to torment him?
But he didn’t say anything, just sighed silently.
He was here, so be it. If he didn’t come, he would have to do even more work.
Last night, Gu Zeyun dragged him to knock and hammer, cleaning the house inside and out. Finally, he couldn’t work anymore, so Gu Zeyun kicked him out the door and told him to come pick up Lin Nian.
Honestly, he felt that these chores were more tiring than training!
Because not only was his body tired, but his heart was also tired!
Chen Ran patted the back seat of his bicycle, full of resentment.
“Yun-ge asked me to pick you up.”
Lin Nian blinked blankly.
Pick her up for what?
Could it be that there was more to the house matter?
As expected of Brother Gu, so efficient!
Thinking of this, Lin Nian smiled.
“Okay! You wait a moment.”
She returned to the kitchen and took out all the steamed wild vegetable cornbread buns. After thinking about it, she put one in an upside-down bowl.
Those two men would never enter the kitchen or touch the dishes.
They would always slap the table and shout that they were hungry. They would never find this cornbread bun hidden in the bowl until they died.
Zhao Shuzhen had to go to the field, so she couldn’t go hungry.
As for Lin Jianguo and Lin Dong, let them starve to death.
Lin Nian found a clean cloth, packed the remaining cornbread buns, and stuffed them into Chen Ran’s arms.
“You came so early, you haven’t had breakfast yet, have you?”
“These are the cornbread buns I made, eat them quickly, and then we’ll go.”
She could probably understand what Gu Zeyun meant by having Chen Ran come so early.
There were fewer people now, so they could avoid people and prevent other villagers from gossiping.
But Chen Ran’s little brain, which had been up all night, couldn’t understand what they meant.
Seeing the small cloth bag, he curled his lips and became even more unhappy.
He had given the house for free, and they were just giving him a few cornbread buns to send him off?
How stingy.
But he was really hungry, so he picked one up and put it in his mouth.
After taking a bite, Chen Ran was a little surprised.
It was refreshing and delicious, with none of the astringency that wild vegetables often had.
He finished one in a few bites and went to get a new one.
But Lin Nian became a little anxious and stepped forward to protect the small cloth bag.
“Why are you eating so fast? Leave two for Gu Zeyun!”
Chen Ran was stunned and showed a teasing expression.
“How do you know that Yun-ge hasn’t had breakfast either?”
“Maybe he doesn’t eat this stuff at all.”
Lin Nian knew he was joking with her and smiled speechlessly.
Gu Zeyun was just a hypocrite, only supervising others to eat on time, and often forgetting himself.
Especially breakfast, if someone gave it to him, he would eat it, but if no one reminded him, he would ignore it after he came back from exercising.
He would only eat something casually when he was hungry at noon.
Even if Lin Nian told him, he would only laugh and say that he had lived like this all his life, and there were times when he didn’t eat for several days and nights when he was on missions.
Because of this, he often had stomachaches when he got old.
Now that she was reborn, she should repay his kindness.
This time, she must supervise Gu Zeyun to eat well and be healthy.
So, this kid shouldn’t think about continuing to be willful!
Lin Nian snatched back the last two cornbread buns, hugged them tightly in her arms, and then sat on the back seat of Chen Ran’s bicycle, urging him to leave quickly.
This time, it was Chen Ran’s turn to be speechless.
These two couples, were they ordering him around too naturally?
After finishing his work, Gu Zeyun sat on the threshold in a daze.
He had three days left of his vacation.
After three days, he would return to the team and be busy with his own affairs.
That’s why he was so anxious, wanting to finish dealing with Lin Nian’s affairs in the limited time he had.
Perhaps…
After these three days, they would have no contact.
He had already thought of a reason to explain to his family.
He would just say that they were separated too much, and the little girl wrote him letters that he didn’t like to reply to, which made her angry, so they broke up.
Anyway, it would all be his fault.
Shen Chengye’s vacation was about the same as his. When he returned to the team, that guy would also go back.
With him helping to keep an eye on things in the army, Shen Chengye shouldn’t be able to continue harassing Lin Nian.
Next was Lin Nian’s family affairs…
He turned his head and looked at the completely renovated house, and could almost imagine the surprised expression on Lin Nian’s face when she saw it.
This house wasn’t big. Chen Ran’s family had bought it temporarily for him to live in in Nancheng, fearing that he would suffer.
But they were usually in the army, and when they came back on vacation, Chen Ran didn’t want to clean it up, so he went directly to his place, and the house had been vacant ever since.
He heard that Chen Ran wanted to sell the house recently.
Anyway, he had some money in his hand, so he would take the initiative for Lin Nian and buy the house for her.
That way, she and her mother would have a place to settle down.
Just consider it…
A little gift from him, the three-day son-in-law, to his mother-in-law.
Gu Zeyun rolled up his sleeves, intending to go inside to wash up, when he suddenly heard the sound of a bicycle chain.
Turning his head, it was indeed Chen Ran who had returned with someone.
Before the bicycle had even stopped, Lin Nian jumped off and ran all the way to him.
That fragrance appeared again.
“Good morning! Gu Zeyun!”
“You found a house for me so quickly?”
“Haven’t eaten yet? Here, your breakfast!”
Before Gu Zeyun could react, two cornbread buns were stuffed into his arms.
Probably because the road was a bit long, they were already cold.
He looked down and subconsciously asked.
“Have you eaten?”
Lin Nian smiled and said that she had.
Gu Zeyun picked up a cornbread bun and suddenly stuffed one into her mouth.
“Well, if you’ve eaten, then eat a little more.”
Lin Nian blinked and broke off half of it to give back to him.
“No, you won’t be full if you only eat one.”
Gu Zeyun smiled again.
“Don’t you want to learn how to fight? Get stronger first, so you don’t get picked up by someone with one hand.”
Chen, who was picked up by Gu Zeyun with one hand, Ran.
Bro, I feel like you’re stabbing me in the back, but I have no evidence.
He looked down at his legs, then looked at the cornbread buns in their hands.
He was also thin!
Why didn’t anyone tell him to eat more?
He wasn’t full either!
