Ning Wan hasn't been to the shop for several days because Ning Yanshu is sick and on leave.
After finally recovering from her illness and sending her child to kindergarten, Ning Wan went out early again to shop.
Aman accompanied her to the farmers' market.
The bustling market is no different from before.
The way they bought groceries remained unchanged: Ning Wan bought the groceries in front, and A Man carried them behind her.
But after they fell in love, the two seemed to enjoy spending time together even on small things like grocery shopping.
Aman, in particular, has become even more childish than before.
I always have a habit of saying "I like Wanwan" all the time.
Ning Yanshu shook the goosebumps on his arms, indicating that if he didn't get better soon, he would be sick of being pampered.
What Wang Zihao said was indeed true.
Watching my parents show affection is a truly indescribable feeling...
...
"We can prepare a little more ingredients for stir-frying. Even if the shop can't sell them all, we can take them back to cook a late-night snack for Aman."
Aman nodded in agreement: "Aman is so happy, Aman loves Wanwan the most."
"How about I prepare hot and sour shredded potatoes, garlic shrimp, and braised pork belly with green beans for lunch?"
"Everything Wanwan makes tastes delicious, I love Wanwan the most~"
Ning Wan smiled and said, "Aman has been working really hard lately, how about I cook you a big chicken leg?"
Aman's eyes shone brightly.
"Hooray! Wanwan is the best! I love Wanwan the most!!!"
Ning Wan also grinned foolishly along with Aman.
The smile reached her eyes, revealing boundless tenderness...
...
After buying groceries and returning to the store, it was already 10:00 AM.
Ning Wan and A Man started preparing lunchboxes to be packed for the construction site at noon.
When Zhou Kai arrived at the store to pick up the food, the time was neither too fast nor too slow; it was exactly 11 o'clock.
Lin Wei opened the car door and said excitedly, "I could smell it from far away, it smells so good!"
To take care of the workers who didn't have lunch, Ning Wan didn't neglect to provide boxed meals to the construction site even during the days she didn't open for business.
Although the kitchen in the community is a bit crowded, it's more than enough to prepare dozens of boxed meals.
Zhou Kai, holding the boxed lunch list, followed them into the store: "There are quite a few boxed lunches today, 83 in total. Can you and Aman handle it?"
"We were a bit rushed, but we made it in time. You can take the rest after it's packed up." Ning Wan wiped the sweat from her brow, holding two takeout boxes in her hand. "I also prepared two extra portions of braised chicken legs for you two. Thank you for your hard work!"
Lin Wei exclaimed with delight, "I knew I made the right choice coming today! I'm in for a treat!"
Zhou Kai rolled his eyes at him speechlessly.
Next, I helped Ning Wan pack the food.
"Is Xiaoshu feeling better?"
Ning Wan smiled and said to Zhou Kai, "He's been better for a while, but I was worried, so I let him rest at home for a couple more days. He's been cooped up at home for ages and couldn't stand being cooped up for so long."
Lin Wei also chimed in, "I haven't seen Xiao Shu in a long time either. I'll bring him a gift next time I come."
“Sure.” Ning Wan raised an eyebrow. “I’ll tell him when he gets back, to make him happy.”
While they were talking, all the boxed lunches were packed up.
Aman was responsible for moving all the styrofoam boxes containing boxed lunches onto the car.
Seeing that Aman insisted on wearing gloves even while carrying boxes, Zhou Kai asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Did you hurt your hand? Why are you wearing gloves while carrying boxes?"
Aman answered seriously, "Wanwan bought this for me."
Zhou Kai: "..."
"Lin Wei, look at him!!! He does this every time, he does it on purpose!!!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
...
After seeing Zhou Kai and Lin Wei off, Ning Wan suddenly remembered the soup still simmering on the stove.
She hurried to the kitchen, opened the lid of the casserole, and stirred it.
He scooped up a little with a spoon, took a small sip, and said, "The fish soup tastes really good today. Ningyou should like it."
Aman followed and asked, "Will my sister come today?"
Ning Wan paused slightly in her hand holding the spoon.
Yes, Ningyou hasn't come for several days.
These past few days, Ning You hasn't replied to any of her messages or phone calls.
After thinking for a moment, Ning Wan put down the soup spoon in her hand.
I turned off the stove and left the kitchen.
She took out her phone and dialed Lu Chen's number.
The phone rang a few times and was quickly answered.
Lu Chen's slightly tired voice came through the phone receiver: "Hello..."
"Lu Chen, this is Ning Wan."
"...Have you encountered some kind of trouble?"
"No," Ning Wan explained, "Ning You hasn't come to see me for several days. I've tried calling and texting her, but she hasn't replied. I'm a little worried about her. Is she alright?"
There was silence for about ten seconds on the other end of the phone.
Then came a long sigh: "...I think, Youyou might not be doing well."
Ning Wan's heart tightened: "What happened?"
"It's hard to explain over the phone. Ning Wan, would it be convenient for you to come to my house this afternoon?"
"Okay, give me the address."
After Ning Wan noted down the address, she said she would go there in the afternoon.
Before hanging up the phone, Lu Chen pleaded again in a serious tone, "Please, you absolutely must come!"
...
Because she was worried about Ning You, Ning Wan only stayed at the store for a short while at noon before closing it.
Before setting off, Ning Wan specially prepared the fish soup and put it in a thermos.
Because Lu Chen was worried, he simply instructed the driver to pick her up from the store.
