Soon, the chicken was bought, and Mrs. Si busied herself killing it and cooking.
Song's father poured two ounces of wine and drank with Pei Yuchen. They had only taken a couple of sips when someone came to the door: "Old Song, do you still need to weed your field? Hurry up and finish it, we have work to do tomorrow."
Then Song's father remembered that he had been busy weeding the fields all day and had only come back to rest at noon when his daughter and son-in-law returned. He had completely forgotten about it.
His wife does handicrafts every day, and he also takes on a lot of carpentry work. His son works in town.
He doesn't leave his few acres of land idle either; he takes care of them whenever he has time.
Realizing what had happened, he slapped his thigh and said, "Oh dear, I almost forgot about that. I'll go weed a bit. Xiao Pei, you and Yan Zhi can just sit at home and play. We'll all have dinner together tonight."
If it weren't for the fact that he had to go to work early the next morning, he wouldn't want to go right now.
After all, when the daughter and son-in-law come to visit, it's natural to treat them well.
But I simply don't have the time right now.
So Song's father hurriedly put on straw sandals, picked up his hoe, and prepared to leave.
Pei Yuchen said in a low voice, "Dad, I'll go with you. The two of us can finish sooner."
He glanced at Song Yanzhi and said gently, "Yanzhi, I'm going to take a look."
Song Yanzhi tilted her head and glanced at him.
They didn't say anything.
The two men carried their hoes and left.
Song Yanzhi helped with the cooking.
Xiao Bao and Pei Jichuan sat on a stool to the side. Pei Jichuan touched the candy in his hand and couldn't help but swallow. Although he had eaten when he came back, he didn't have milk to drink like Xiao Bao.
When Song's father gave Xiaobao candy, he also grabbed two pieces for him.
Watching Xiaobao eat, he couldn't resist joining in himself.
I couldn't resist secretly peeling one and popping it into my mouth.
To everyone's surprise, when Xiao Bao looked up, he was clearly angry. He glared at Pei Jichuan and turned away from him.
Because when Song's father gave him candy, Xiao Bao didn't see it.
Pei Jichuan was a little flustered and subconsciously turned to look at Song Yanzhi. Song Yanzhi's gaze swept over him, but she didn't say anything to stop him from eating. He couldn't help but grin. He secretly ate candy, and Aunt Song wasn't angry.
Li Yuehua felt bad that the two of them had left before they even had a chance to eat.
Although she was still a little awkward, she couldn't just not say anything, since it wouldn't sound good if word got out. So she said, "Zhizhi, I'll get some food first. You can take it to Xiao Pei and your dad. How can you have the energy to work if you don't eat something?"
After saying that, she went to the kitchen and made a few large pancakes for her.
Song Yanzhi gave a curt reply, went to get the food, and saw Xiao Bao kneeling on the stool with his upper body leaning on the dining table, not knowing what he was doing. She called out to Xiao Bao, "Xiao Bao, come with me to bring food to your grandpa."
Xiao Bao was secretly stuffing candy into his mouth. When he turned his head, his cheeks were bulging. He had a smug look on his face as he slid off the stool.
Mom said I can only eat two candies a day at most.
He has already eaten several today.
But Mom didn't see it.
He ran up quickly and took Song Yanzhi's hand.
Song Yanzhi ignored Pei Jichuan's expectant gaze and pulled Xiaobao out.
Pei Jichuan sat back down on the small stool. The little thing looked pitiful, and even Li Yuehua, who was initially unhappy about her daughter raising someone else's child, couldn't stay angry anymore.
She had just handed him a pancake when there was a loud banging on the door.
Before she could open the door, it was rudely kicked open.
"Hey, Laifu, what's wrong with you? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Where's that brat Song Yanzhi? Where did he go?" Li Laifu asked in a troublesome tone as soon as he arrived.
"Yanzhi? What do you want with Yanzhi? Yanzhi went to the fields to bring food to her dad. What's wrong with you? Sigh..." Before she could finish speaking, Li Laifu turned around and strode away.
Li Yuehua realized something was wrong and hurriedly followed.
Pei Jichuan was also a little scared, so he quickly chased after him.
At this moment, Song Yanzhi had just arrived at the edge of the field.
Right now, many people are busy working in the fields with their heads down and backs bent. She heard people talking amongst themselves.
"He's so handsome! Can you see him? He's tall and handsome. I've never seen a man as good-looking as him."
"Who is that? Is he a relative of the Song family? Why don't we ask him to introduce me to someone?"
"He looks more like the guy her daughter brought home five years ago. He's probably not back, is he?"
People were discussing it animatedly.
Song Yanzhi heard it as she walked over. Following the gaze of the group, she saw Pei Yuchen, shirtless, carrying a hoe and working hard.
Perhaps because it was too hot, he took off his shirt. Actually, all the men in the fields did this at this time, but he didn't think anything of it.
Unfortunately, without comparison, there is no harm. Compared to her father's slightly overweight belly, Pei Yuchen's firm eight-pack abs were simply too eye-catching.
His bronze skin reflected the sunlight, and his strong arms gripped the hoe, quickly clearing away the weeds from the field ridge.
Her slender waist stretched with the movement of her arms, drawing the attention of the women around her.
Everyone blushed.
Song Yanzhi's lips twitched.
She knew that Pei Yuchen would be very popular at the airport in the future.
But she didn't expect that he would attract so much attention even when he came to the countryside.
She used to feel inferior when she saw it, but now she was speechless.
Pei Yuchen seemed to notice her gaze, straightened up, and looked at her with his deep eyes.
The moment their eyes met, Song Yan subconsciously looked away.
Just then, an angry voice rang out from behind, "You little brat, you stop right there! I'll teach you a lesson for bullying my daughter!"
Song Yanzhi felt something hit the back of her head. She frowned and subconsciously turned around, only to see her uncle, Li Laifu, holding a brick and throwing it at her.
Song Yanzhi was stunned. Instinctively, she protected the baby in her arms and closed her eyes.
