Chen Yanfang subconsciously glanced at Huo Jue who was standing in the yard.

Thinking of Huo Jue's frantic expression when he couldn't find Wen Xia Nuan when he got home, she still felt terrified when she thought about it now: "Wen Zhiqing, when you leave next time, you should leave a message, right?"

[Yeah, just now the male supporting character thought the female lead had returned to the city. That look was scary!]

[That's right. I didn't expect the male lead to care so much about the female lead. If the female lead really goes back one day, what will he do? ]

[Fortunately, the heroine came back quickly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous! ]

Wen Xia Nuan looked at the comments, then glanced suspiciously at Chen Yanfang. Meeting her anxious gaze, she belatedly nodded, "Okay, I understand."

She twitched the corners of her mouth, and Chen Yanfang breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Jue, Wen Zhiqing is back. I think we should prepare the ingredients first?"

Huo Jue calmed down a little.

Wen Xia Nuan also walked over: "I'll help."

Huo Jue reached out to stop Wen Xia Nuan: "No need, just sit down first."

Wen Xia Nuan's suspicious eyes fell on Huo Jue. After hearing what he said, she bit her lip, her eyes filled with uneasiness: "Are you still angry with me?"

Huo Jue paused and looked at her in surprise: "No, why would you think so?"

Wen Xia Nuan's ears secretly turned red. She was worried that Huo Jue had been ignoring her all the time, and whether he was really angry.

I didn't expect that I guessed wrong.

She looked away and waved towards Huo Jue: "No, go ahead and do your work."

Huo Jue responded and walked towards the fence in the yard to catch the chicken.

Chen Yanfang glanced at Huo Jue, then fixed her gaze on Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, I was almost scared to death just now!"

Wen Xia Nuan was hugged by Chen Yanfang's arm. She patted the back of Chen Yanfang's hand to comfort her: "I didn't expect Huo Jue to react so strongly."

Chen Yanfang muttered, "I haven't seen Brother Jue this angry in a long time! Wen Zhiqing, it seems that Brother Jue really cares about you."

Her tone was bitter. Wen Xia Nuan glanced at Chen Yanfang and said with a bitter tone: "Are you sad?"

Chen Yanfang shook her head and waved her hands quickly: "No! Wen Zhiqing, don't let your imagination run wild. How could I be sad?"

She smiled with the corners of her mouth pulled: "I know, Brother Jue has always liked you."

Chen Yanfang looked at Wen Xia Nuan with burning eyes: "Although he didn't say it, his actions have already said it. How could Brother Jue care about me so much?"

She smiled, her expression particularly clear and decisive: "Wen Zhiqing, I'm actually very optimistic about you and Brother Jue. He's responsible, willing to endure hardships, and will treat you well."

Wen Xia Nuan forced a smile. If she told Chen Yanfang that she actually had no plans to be with Huo Jue until now, would she be severely scolded?

She didn't dare to gamble, and she just hoped that Huo Jue's life would get better and better, and that he would not end up in such a miserable state because of her as the comments said.

"Wen Zhiqing, please sit down first. I'll go help Brother Jue."

Chen Yanfang stood up and walked towards Huo Jue. Wen Xia Nuan sat there doing nothing and quickly walked towards the kitchen.

The pork bones had been stewed with radish. The fragrant aroma of radish and pork bones wafted out, making Wen Xia Nuan swallow her saliva.

Chen Yanfang was plucking chicken feathers. Wen Xia Nuan couldn't stand the smell of the hot water burning the feathers, so she covered her nose and walked out.

The smoke from the chimney slowly drifted out. Wen Xia Nuan sat there, looking at the smoke in front of her. She couldn't help but sigh that the years were peaceful.

The night gradually darkened, and everyone slowly returned home from the fields. When they passed by Huo Jue's house, they smelled the aroma of meat, and Huo Zhiguo couldn't help swallowing.

Li Mei's stomach also started to growl. The overbearing fragrance kept drilling into her nostrils, making her already gloomy mood even worse!

"Huo Zhiguo, go back quickly!"

Li Mei's cursing voice could be heard: "Huo Jue stepped on our Huo Chen to become the scorekeeper, and now he's cooking meat for us. Is he celebrating his own greatness?"

"If you ask me, Huo Jue is really a piece of shit!"

Huo Zhiguo was afraid that Li Mei's voice would be heard by others, so he quickly pulled her and said, "Alright, do you still want to apologize at the criticism meeting?"

Li Mei fell silent, feeling unwilling in her heart, but she swallowed her words back.

"Huo Zhiguo, come back quickly!"

Li Mei's angry curse was heard, and Huo Zhiguo hurriedly responded: "Okay."

"This Huo Zhiguo is such a useless guy. He doesn't even dare to talk back when Li Mei scolds him all day long!"

"That's right, but have you noticed? There's something fishy about the weather. It looks like it's going to rain."

"Let it rain! The weather is uncharacteristically hot, so it's just right for rain to cool down!"

The villagers talked but didn't take it seriously.

The sky was gloomy, and at this moment there was a loud bang, and heavy rain poured down in an instant.

Wen Xia Nuan held her cheeks and looked at the rain outside the kitchen. When she heard a knock on the door, she opened her umbrella and quickly walked out.

"Aunt Fat, you're here!"

Wen Xia Nuan held an umbrella for Aunt Fatty: "Come in quickly, and Uncle Chen too!"

The gate to the courtyard was opened, and Auntie Pang and her husband Chen Jianjun walked in. Chen Jianjun smiled sheepishly, "Wen Zhiqing, I'm shameless enough to come and get a free meal!"

"Uncle Chen, that's not true. Auntie Pang and Yanfang saved Huo Jue and me, so isn't it normal for you to come and have dinner?"

Wen Xia Nuan closed the courtyard door and walked to the kitchen: "Huo Jue went to deliver food to Old Madam Huo. He will be here soon."

The group walked into the kitchen, and Huo Jue just happened to walk in. Wen Xia Nuan waved at him: "Huo Jue, Uncle Chen and Aunt Pang are here, let's eat!"

In addition to a few vegetables, there were two meat dishes on the table. Aunt Pang saw it and knew that Huo Jue and Wen Xia Nuan were sincerely thanking them.

"Wen Zhiqing, Jue'er, you are so polite!"

Auntie Fat was embarrassed, but Wen Xia Nuan smiled and said, "Auntie Fat, this is all thanks to your help. Otherwise, I would have lost my life here. If you don't mind, just call me Ah Nuan."

"Uncle Chen, you and Yanfang should eat more too!"

Aunt Fat nodded and said happily, "Okay, okay, let's all eat more!"

The rain was drizzling outside the kitchen. Wen Xia was eating when the barrage of comments suddenly popped up.

[The rain is over. I heard the river overflowed and flooded the fields. Huo Jue and the villagers have suffered heavy losses in their grain this year!]
