Her newly purchased phone seemed strange—she suspected it had somehow connected to the underworld, because everything she ordered was instantly delivered.
A month later, she sold off her as...
"There's hot water in the pot. Go to the woodshed first and I'll pour it for you."
A bathroom is separated from the woodshed. The room is small and heat is concentrated here, so it is the best place to put the bathroom.
Gu Yuelin watched Feng Mian bring over the hot water, and an inexplicable feeling welled up in his heart again.
They are obviously not even husband and wife, so how come they live like an old married couple?
I always feel that a newly married wife shouldn't be like this. She is so natural, maybe it's because of that marriage?
Even though the hot water was poured on my body, my heart still felt cold.
He worries about gains and losses every day and feels like he is becoming a shrew.
By the time he finished washing, Feng Mian had already put the food into the pot.
Gu Yuelin looked at the two large bowls of cured pork ribs and thought to himself, My family is well fed. I am starting to worry about food again.
After the busy farming season, I should go and get back the money my cousin sent me. I can’t let her life get worse and worse.
"How long will it take to harrow the paddy field?"
"I'm afraid we'll have to rake out seven or eight more."
"How's your shoulder?"
Gu Yuelin was stunned.
Feng Mian took out a bottle of red lily oil and said, "Apply some medicine. I think you have been the one pulling the rake all along."
His cold heart was warmed up again, and Gu Yuelin coughed softly, "It's okay."
"Oh." She put the bottle of medicine on the table.
Seeing that she didn't seem to care much, Gu Yuelin began to feel anxious again.
"How about... you, you should help me apply some medicine, it still hurts a little."
Feng Mian still looked calm, as if he was talking about something normal. "Okay, then eat quickly. I'll apply medicine to you after you're done."
After dinner, the two sat under the eaves to apply medicine.
The main thing is that the sun is shining and it’s bright outside.
The room was dark and we had to light candles.
She hasn't done farm work for a long time and has always taken good care of herself.
That hand was much smoother than an ordinary person's hand.
She applied the red lip oil and rubbed it on Gu Yuelin's shoulders.
He subconsciously tensed his body, his heart beat faster, and he was extremely nervous.
But she seemed to have lost her love and didn't care at all. She patted him on the shoulder and said in a businesslike tone, "Relax."
Gu Yuelin: “…” I also want to relax.
While applying the medicine, a man suddenly came to the gate of the courtyard and stretched his neck to look inside through the gap.
Feng Mian, who was applying medicine, didn't see it, but Gu Yuelin met the man's eyes.
He patted Feng Mian's hand, "Who is it then? Are they here to see you?"
Feng Mian looked up and saw the face of an unfamiliar middle-aged man.
"I don't know. I'll go check it out."
Feng Mian walked towards the gate of the courtyard. Gu Yuelin put on his clothes and put away the potion.
Feng Mian opened the gate and asked, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
This person is dressed very fashionably and has a trendy look.
He had a slicked-back haircut, wore a very modern small suit, leather shoes, and carried a leather bag in his hand.
He looks a bit like a leader who has come to the countryside to do some business.
"Little girl, I walked a long way to get here. Oh, I'm here to look for my relatives. I passed by your house. Can you give me a bowl of water?"
"Passing by? Uncle, please come in."
Feng Mian opened the gate and let the person in, then turned to Gu Yuelin and said, "Help me pour the water."
Gu Yuelin poured out a bowl of hot water and said, "Uncle, sit here and drink it."
"Hey, thank you."
He looked at Gu Yuelin and then at Feng Mian.
I had seen them applying medicine through the crack in the door before, and had a rough idea of their relationship.
"You are a couple, right?"
