Chapter 8



Xie Linan said calmly, "It's all your fault. You took away the only fan in the house. I couldn't sleep because it was too hot. I got up in the middle of the night to take a cool shower. I fell asleep only after it cooled down in the middle of the night. That's why I got up late."

"Ah? No wonder I saw you fetching water last night when I went to the toilet. Brother, my third brother and I will be back to school in the afternoon, so take the fan."

"Um."

The innocent child did not doubt his brother's words at all.

Ye Xiaozhen came out after getting dressed. Seeing this, Lin Xinghua hurriedly called her, "Kid, go wash your face and come over to eat. I'll heat up the food for you."

Ye Xiaozhen saw him limping towards the kitchen with the pot in his hand, and hurriedly followed him and snatched the pot, "Grandpa, let me heat it up."

"You are not feeling well, you should rest."

Ye Xiaozhen said: "I am fine now."

"It doesn't matter if you say it's OK. The doctor says you should stay in bed for the next few days."

Ye Xiaozhen was speechless, she really felt that she was fine, but the other person insisted on his point and thought she was a fool and didn't believe her words.

You are a healthy person, why don't you just lie on the bed for a few seconds? I can't stand it.

She took the pot and went to the kitchen without saying anything, but Lin Xinghua couldn't stop her due to his lame leg.

He can't catch it, but Xie Lin'an can.

He was standing in front of the stone sink in the yard washing his face, but when he heard them talking, he threw down his towel and came over.

He snatched the pot from Ye Xiaozhen's hand and said, "Be good and go back to rest. I'll call you when I'm done heating it up."

Ye Xiaozhen: “…”

She really didn't want to sleep.

"Brother, heat up the food. I'll watch."

The word "brother" could not be refused at all. Xie Linan grabbed a wooden stool and asked her to sit next to him, while he went to light a fire and heat up the meal.

What high-tech kitchen appliances does Ye Xiaozhen not know how to use? Unfortunately, she has never used this rural earthen stove.

I only have the original owner's memory, and I don't know if it can be put into practice.

I'd better take this opportunity to see how Xie Lin An uses it.

Watch him light the fire, pick the vegetables, and pull the bellows.

The movements are fast and smooth.

After a while, the cold food was heated up.

Actually, it was hot, and Xie Linan didn't need to eat hot food. But considering that Ye Xiaozhen was still sick and couldn't eat cold food, he did this.

She ate more this time and finished the whole bowl of porridge.

But Xie Linan still felt it was not enough.

What's the point of a bowl of porridge? I'm hungry after I pee.

He drank five bowls of the same earthenware bowl, and only stopped when there was no more liquid left in the pot.

As soon as I came out after dinner, I saw the village chief’s grandson running to find Xie Linan.

"Brother Lin An, someone from Bashang called and told you to come back as soon as possible."

"knew."

Xie Linan frowned.

Lin Xinghua came over and asked, "Lin An, are you going back to the dam today?"

Xie Linan nodded, "It will be fine after the trip is over. Grandpa, please take care of Xiaozhen. I will be back in the evening."

"You're coming back at night? It's so far, you have to leave before dawn tomorrow."

"I will be worried if you don't come back. I will not come back at night until Xiaozhen is fully recovered."

"Oh! All right, go ahead and don't worry, Xiaozhen will take care of it."

Xie Linan nodded, turned around and walked towards Ye Xiaozhen who was standing at the door.

"Xiaozhen, come here, let me tell you something."

Well……

She had heard it.

"Brother, go ahead."

Xie Linan smiled and said, "You are so good. Come here and I will talk to you."

Xie Linan pulled her into the house and told her what he had been doing recently, regardless of whether she could understand or not. He spoke to her seriously, just like a husband must explain something to his wife.

In the original owner's memory, he also heard about him repairing the dam.

I originally thought he was the one exerting his strength, but I didn't expect that he was the foreman, the person in charge of the dam construction.

"This is my first project, nothing can go wrong, so I have to watch it in person. As long as this project is completed, we can take on more projects and make money."

Oh my god, it doesn’t seem to be a fantasy, it seems that making steamed buns can really make money.

"Xiaozhen, when I make some money, I'll take you to see a doctor."

Ye Xiaozhen: “…”

After the house and car, 꺗画 gave her a 꺶 cake.

Did she say something?

"Don't work hard, brother."

Xie Linan was overjoyed. He rubbed her head and said, "Our little Zhen is so good and caring. I'm not tired. I'm just worried that you'll be bullied. If your disability certificate is not returned, your father and stepmother will definitely come to trouble you when I'm not at home. I'll carry it with me for a while. If they ask you, just say it's with me and let them find me."

Ye Xiaozhen nodded.

Xie Linan said, "Alright, remember, if someone bullies you, you must protect yourself. Go inside and lock the door, and I will come back and hammer them to death."

Ye Xiaozhen: “…”

Without waiting for her to react, Xie Linan pulled her to the door and taught her how to lock it step by step.

"Do you understand?"

Ye Xiaozhen nodded, "Yes."

She is not really stupid.

"Okay, lock it up once and show it to me."

Okay, Ye Xiaozhen cooperated and locked it once.

Xie Linan was relieved when he saw that she really knew how to lock the door.

He also praised her, "Our Xiaozhen is very smart, not stupid at all."

Ye Xiaozhen: “…”

He really...

Ye Xiaozhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she felt very warm.

It was almost eleven o'clock. Xie Linan took two steamed buns, pulled out his bicycle and prepared to leave.

Lin Xinghua was holding a piece of washed bacon, "Hey, let's have lunch before we go. I have packed the meat."

"No, Grandpa. I have Xiaozhen's disability certificate. I will return it to them when I am free."

After saying that, he rode away on his bicycle.

Lin Xinghua grumbled a few words and started to make lunch. Ye Xiaozhen went to help him.

Although the original owner was a fool, he learned various life skills from the couple's beatings.

It's just that I work slower than ordinary people and make mistakes more easily.

Food blogger Ye Zhen is very efficient at her job, but Lin Xinghua doesn't let her do it.

She insisted on doing it, so she was arranged to sit aside and pick some vegetables and peel some garlic.

The two younger brothers were still working hard on their homework. After lunch, they went back to school.

They live on campus and only come back on weekends.

While I was busy, my third brother Xie Linqi finished his homework and came to the kitchen to help.

"Grandpa, you light the fire and I'll cook."

The spatula was in Ye Xiaozhen's hand.

Lin Xinghua said with a smile: "Your sister-in-law said she is going to cook, so go pack your schoolbag."

Xie Linqi thought that Ye Xiaozhen often worked at home, so he didn't force her and went back to pack his schoolbag.

Xie Linli was also done by then. "How is it? Is she cooking or is Grandpa cooking?"

Xie Linqi said: "Grandpa is lighting the fire, and sister-in-law is cooking."

Xie Linli breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, it's of some use. I'm just worried that after we leave, Grandpa will still have to take care of her."
