Yu Bai still doesn't know how a decision made by the Qin Dynasty in the distant time and space regarding the crystal core will subvert the present world she lives in, and even the doomsday where Han Yi is struggling to survive.

At this moment, she had just driven the SUV back to the edge of the county town, and she saw her third brother Yu Nian, who was waiting at the intersection with an increasingly tall and strong figure.

The sunlight illuminated his wheat-colored skin, giving it a healthy sheen. The immaturity between his brows had faded considerably, and he looked more composed.

"Third brother!" Yu Bai honked the horn and parked the car steadily.

Yu Nian opened the car door and sat neatly in the passenger seat. He grinned, revealing two rows of neat white teeth: "I thought you would be late."

"If everything goes well, it's early." Yu Bai started the car, but did not drive towards home immediately. Instead, he turned the steering wheel skillfully and merged into another stream of traffic. "Let's not go home yet. Let's go to my second brother's place."

Yu Nian was startled for a moment, then understood: "Sending something to my second brother?"

"Yeah, Mom prepared it."

Yu Bai walked through the streets of the county town with ease.

Although it is summer vacation now, Yu Xia is teaching the graduating class, and the tension for the new senior class is already high. She spends almost the entire vacation in school, giving students extra lessons, and rarely has time to return to the village.

Because of this, Zhou Fengxia, who loves her son very much, will always send "supplies" to Yu Xia once a week no matter how busy the supermarket is.

Sometimes they are fresh vegetables and sweet and crisp fruits just picked from her own fields, sometimes they are the chickens and ducks with firm meat that she has carefully raised, and more often, they are the handmade dumplings with rich fillings that are full of motherly love.

In the past two days, the supermarket was about to open, and Zhou Fengxia was so busy that she couldn't spare any time. So she gave this glorious and arduous task to Yu Bai, asking her to deliver it to Yu Xia when she came back from the city.

Fortunately, there is the existence of the different space. No matter when Zhou Fengxia gives something to Yu Bai, when Yu Xia gets it, it is guaranteed to be as fresh as if it had just been picked from the ground or taken out of the pot.

The car stopped at the foot of a residential building.

Yu Bai and Yu Nian went up to the third floor carrying large and small bags. Yu Xia's door was ajar, and the aroma of food was already wafting out.

"It should be Sister Song Yan who is back." Yu Nian sniffed and smiled.

Yu Bai knocked on the door, and Song Yan responded gently from inside: "Are you back? The meal will be ready soon, wait a moment..."

Before he finished speaking, a slender figure in a floral apron poked her head out of the kitchen. Seeing Yu Bai and Yu Nian at the door, a hint of surprise flashed across her face, and then a warm smile appeared on her face.

"Ah! Xiaobai, Yunian! Why are you here? Come in quickly, come in quickly!"

She quickly wiped her hands on her apron and came out, with a hint of surprise in her tone.

"Sister Song Yan."

Yu Bai and Yu Nian greeted each other with a smile and handed over the things in their hands.

"Mom asked me to bring you some food." Yu Bai explained.

Song Yan took the fruits, vegetables, and slaughtered chickens and ducks, and put them in place with ease.

"Your second brother was so careless that he didn't tell me in advance that you were coming. I... I only prepared food for the three of us."

She pointed to the two dishes and one soup already on the table, which were indeed only enough for two or three people.

Yu Bai and Yunian looked at each other and smiled.

My second brother Yu Xia is rigorous and meticulous in academics, but he is indeed a bit careless in life.

"It's okay, Sister Song Yan, we..." Yu Nian was about to say that they could go home to eat.

Yu Bai interrupted him with a smile, saying simply, "It's okay, Sister Song Yan, you and second brother can eat. Third brother and I will just go downstairs and buy something to fill our stomachs. I heard the new clay pot rice noodle shop downstairs is delicious."

She wasn't being polite; she meant it sincerely.

Song Yan works hard, and asking her to add more dishes at the last minute would only cause more trouble.

"How can that be!" Song Yan frowned and made a move to go to the kitchen, "Wait a minute, I'll quickly cook two more dishes..."

"Oh, that's really not necessary, Sister Song Yan," Yu Bai held her back, "We are not outsiders. It just so happens that my third brother and I also want to try the rice noodles from that restaurant. You and second brother can enjoy your meal and don't worry about us."

Suddenly the door was pushed open and Yu Xia came back with Yu Baoer.

When he saw Yu Bai and Yu Nian, he was stunned for a moment, then a huge smile appeared on his face: "Xiao Bai? Old Three? Why are you here?"

Then, his eyes fell on the food on the table and Song Yan's slightly angry expression. He instantly understood something, slapped his forehead, and said in annoyance:

"Oh! Look at my memory! I forgot to tell Song Yan!"

As he said that, he didn't even have time to put down his bag before he turned around and rushed out the door: "Wait, I'll go downstairs and buy some cooked food!"

Song Yan was quick to act and grabbed him.

"Don't bother. You brothers and sisters finally get together. Just chat at home for a while. I'll go."

Yu Xia wanted to argue, but was stopped by her look.

Song Yan had already taken off her apron swiftly, grabbed her cell phone and wallet, and went downstairs without looking back.

The room suddenly became quiet, leaving only the aroma of food and Yu Baoer's giggles.

Yu Bai wanted to go out to help, but as soon as he took a step, he was hugged by his younger brother Yu Baoer.

"Sister, don't go!"

"Be good, Baoer, sister will accompany you for a while, okay?"

But Yu Baoer just wouldn't let go.

Yu Nian, who was standing next to him, noticed something and whispered, "Sister Song Yan isn't the kind of petty person. She knew we wouldn't care about these things."

Yes, this little thing might cause a rift in other people's families, but here, no one would ever think too much about a meal.

But it is precisely this simple and pure way of getting along that makes people cherish it more and fear losing it one day.

A moment later, Song Yan came up with two bags of hot braised food and the rice noodles that Yu Bai wanted to eat, and also bought a few bottles of drinks.

There was a light sweat on her face when she came in, but she smiled easily.

"Eat quickly, you're all starving, right?"

"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law!"

Yu Nian took the food, unpacked it carelessly, and added more dishes to the table, making it look very sumptuous.

Only Yu Bai felt a little guilty - he was clearly the guest, but in the end he made his future sister-in-law run errands.

When cleaning up the dishes after dinner, Yu Bai quietly took out four packs of new incense sticks made from medicinal herbs from another space from his bag and handed them to Song Yan.

"Sister Song Yan, take this home and give it to your uncle and aunt. It's good for sleep."

Song Yan was stunned for a moment, but soon understood. She didn't refuse, but just patted her shoulder.

Outside the window, cicadas are chirping, and inside the house, there is the laughter of the family and the smell of fireworks.

This is all that people want.
