Aunt Li stared at the portrait of her son on the paper with wide eyes. He was always said to be the son of a fool, but now his eyes were bright and his face was still the same, except that his facial features had been slightly adjusted and his eyes had changed. He immediately looked like a different person.

"Jiang Li, your painting is so beautiful. Thank you so much!"

Aunt Li excitedly pulled Jiang Li's hand. Jiang Li had never had a good relationship with her, and now she felt very uncomfortable being pulled like this, so she immediately pulled her hand back.

Aunt Li thought about it, then reluctantly took out a dollar from her pocket and put it into Jiang Li's hand.

"This portrait of yours was not easy to draw, and it took up quite a bit of your time. I'll give you an extra dollar as a thank you."

"Jiang Li, you drew my son very well. I am really grateful to you. I will try my best to change my bad mouthing. Even if I can't change it, I will never say bad things about you when I say bad things about others."

"If you see me say this, or hear me say this, just rush up and slap me twice. I promise I won't fight back!"

Aunt Li was almost swearing to the heavens, and Jiang Li nodded without comment.

No matter how nice the words are, it will be useless if you can't do it. She won't say anything now, just stand aside and watch coldly.

"Aunt Li, I'm a little tired."

Jiang Li's words meant he was leaving. Aunt Li was a smart person, so she immediately ordered the villagers to carry her son's body away.

She held the portrait given by Jiang Li tightly in her hand, determined to find a way to frame it, so that she would think that her son had always been so smart and loved to laugh, and that there was nothing wrong with his brain.

Aunt Li came with her people very quickly and left very quickly as well.

Jiang Li yawned tiredly and patted the two dollars in her pocket.

In less than an hour, she earned two or three days' wages of an ordinary person. She was quite satisfied with the income.

When Jiang Li returned to the house, Shen Changan immediately stood up holding the child and looked at Jiang Li excitedly.

"I didn't expect you could draw portraits!"

"Well, I just draw to make a living."

Jiang Li didn't say much. Shen Changan was too smart. What she said couldn't stand scrutiny. There was no need to show off in front of him. If he guessed the truth, she would be shooting herself in the foot.

"Sister Jiang Yi, when you have time, please help me draw a picture."

"Sure, but I've already painted for someone else today, and now I'm in a hurry to make breakfast, so I really don't have time."

Shen Changan nodded in understanding. Jiang Li went to the kitchen, and Shen Changan followed her with the child in his arms.

"Your baby is crying again, don't you want to comfort him first before cooking?"

Jiang Li glanced at the eldest brother. The little guy was lying in Shen Changan's arms crying. On the surface, he looked very sad, but in fact, he seemed to be enjoying it a little.

Jiang Li would not compete with Shen Changan for the rare parent-child time.

"Please help take care of the baby for a while. I'm very quick and will be fine in no time."

Shen Changan nodded reluctantly. In fact, he didn't have much confidence in himself, but he couldn't cook, and Jiang Li's cooking was really delicious, so he decided to help take care of the child and let her cook well.

Shen Changan took the children out, and Jiang Li skillfully made noodles for them.

Jiang Yi slept for a while and felt cold, so he got up from the bed. Zhang Guocai was also used to getting up early.

Jiang Li had cooked the noodles and the family had already cleaned up. Jiang Yi took the initiative to come over to help serve the noodles. While holding the bowl, he took an exaggerated deep breath.

"Wow, these noodles smell so good and look so delicious! They are definitely my sister's cooking."

Shen Changan miraculously coaxed the eldest brother to sleep. He quickly put him on the bed in the room. Shen Changan simply rinsed his mouth and washed his face before coming over to eat noodles.

Everyone's noodles had eggs, a few slices of meat, and a little bit of green vegetables. Except for the bowl of noodles in front of him, everyone else's had chopped green onions.

Shen Changan has never eaten chopped green onions since he was a child. He doesn't know if it's an allergy or a psychological reaction, but he will feel itchy all over his body when he eats them.

Apart from his parents and a few childhood friends, basically no one knew about this. How did Jiang Li know about it?

Shen Changan stared at the noodles in a daze. Jiang Li guessed what he was thinking and took the initiative to explain.

"I don't know if you like chopped green onions, so I didn't put any in there. If you want, there's some in the small bowl on the table. Please add some yourself."

Jiang Li completely cleared himself of the issue with just one sentence.

Shen Changan realized that he had misunderstood, and explained with a smile: "I have never eaten chopped green onions since I was a child. Fortunately, you didn't put green onions in it, otherwise I wouldn't be able to eat this bowl of noodles."

"Teacher Shen, so you are also picky about food?"

Jiang Yi looked at Shen Changan curiously. There was a cunning expression on his face, as if he had discovered someone else's secret and was secretly happy.

"The teacher is not picky about food, I am just allergic to chopped green onions."

They sat around a table. Shen Changan picked up the noodles and took a bite. The noodles looked simple, but the soup inside was very delicious, and even the noodles became very delicious.

Shen Changan couldn't stop eating after taking one bite. For the next ten minutes, everyone gathered together and ate noodles quickly. No one had time to say anything.

After finishing the noodles, they picked up the bowls in unison and drank up all the soup.

"Teacher Shen, is it really that delicious?"

Jiang Yi looked at Teacher Shen eagerly, waiting for him to praise his sister, and Shen Changan nodded heavily.

"Jiang Li, your cooking skills are very good. If the family can always maintain this level of food, Jiang Yi will definitely grow taller and stronger."

It was already late after eating noodles. Jiang Yi was ready to go out with his schoolbag on his back. Shen Changan's suit jacket was stained by the child, so he could only go out wearing the blue khaki work clothes given by Jiang Li.

As soon as they went out, they saw things being moved in the house next door, and Shen Changan asked curiously.

"Jiang Yi, is your next-door neighbor moving away?"

"I think so. I heard they bought a house in Baiyun Town and plan to move the whole family to the town to make a living."

"So what are you going to do with this house?"

"I don't know. I might sell it, or I might rent it out. But everyone in the village has a house, so I don't know if anyone will want it."

Jiang Yi expressed his opinion, and Shen Changan turned around and looked at the empty house.

Song Jialin was packing up at home early in the morning. Since her parents couldn't do such a small thing, let her do it.

She had people busy all night last night to help her find out a lot of information.

The house next to Jiang Li was listed on the town's job board for sale or rent.

Since her parents couldn't do this, she would rent a house next to Jiang Li. She wouldn't go out normally, and would wait for Jiang Li to go out and find the right opportunity to hold the child. This way, the chance would be much greater!

When she comes to Shen Changan with the child in her arms, he will have no choice but to marry her.
