Shui Qing's family doesn't have many rules.

Talking is allowed at the dinner table, and they believe that when is the family most complete? It's during mealtime!

Taking this time to talk about what happened during the day and then arrange the work for the rest of the day is much easier than setting aside a specific time to give orders together.

Everyone has gotten used to this pattern: a meal is finished in a lively atmosphere, and everything that needs to be said is said.

While they were clearing away the dishes, Fan Hu heard a knock at the courtyard gate. He ran to open it and returned shortly after, calling out to Hu Wenhua, "Uncle, someone's looking for you!"

The people inside didn't think much of it. Ever since the potatoes were delivered, the men from Shanshui Village would come to talk to Hu Wenhua from time to time. It was even more normal for men to come to him after he sold the rabbits today.

Hu Wenhua didn't think much of it. He took the bowl and chopsticks to the kitchen, scooped up a ladle of water to wash his hands, and went out.

Once outside the courtyard gate, upon seeing the woman's figure with her back turned in the distance, Hu Wenhua's sturdy and robust body froze.

He first looked around, and finding no one else, Big Foot resolutely refused to take another step forward, only raising his voice to ask, "Did you look for me? What is it?"

Does he know her?

Besides, who would wait with their back to someone when looking for them?

Zhang Chunhua deliberately stayed far away from the house, even standing on the edge of the high ground, just waiting for Hu Wenhua to come over so they could have a private chat.

I never expected that this piece of wood would stand at the door and shout loudly!

She stomped her foot in anger, turned around, and pouted, saying, "Come here, I'm telling you!"

Without thinking, Hu Wenhua shouted, "I'm not going over there! If you have something to say, come over and tell me."

The edge of her land was covered with thorns. Even the toddlers in Shanshui Village had warned her, but Zhang Chunhua was still standing at the edge calling him over!

Is she forgetful or trying to trick him?

Those in the courtyard who heard Hu Wenhua's voice looked at Fan Hu in surprise: "Who's here? Why is your uncle speaking so loudly?"

There are no deaf people in Shanshui Village.

Fan Hu didn't even look up: "Zhang Chunhua."

My jaw dropped.

Shui Qing: ...Why didn't you say so sooner!

Zhang Chunhua's face turned red with anger. Just as she was about to say something, she remembered what she had said about the dangers here, and jumped up in shock, hurriedly walking towards Hu Wenhua.

How could she forget the danger here!

She walked up to Hu Wenhua, ran her hands over her hair that hung down her neck, and twirled it in circles. With her head down, she said shyly, "Thank you for reminding me."

Hu Wenhua waited for a long time but didn't hear the next sentence. This girl was acting strangely, and he unconsciously took a step back.

"Is there something you need?"

Zhang Chunhua felt this was different from what she had expected. She looked up blankly and stammered, "N-nothing, it's just that I heard you led the villagers to make money selling rabbits, and I think you're amazing..."

Hu Wenhua took another step back, his back almost touching the door panel.

Zhang the Bald's family doesn't raise rabbits, let alone sell them. They haven't even made any money, so why are they coming over to praise him?

Besides, the key to making money selling rabbits is the hard work of the villagers—cutting grass, raising rabbits, and cleaning their burrows. Only secondarily does he help with the sales. Why would she need to come all the way here to praise him?

Is this mocking him or just being sarcastic?

That's it?

Zhang Chunhua froze, unable to lower her head and pretend to be shy anymore, and stared straight up at him!
