When Shen Qiwen came back from the mountain, he was carrying a backpack and a pheasant in his hand.
When the person arrived at his door, a look of surprise flashed across his face.
He walked up to them in two or three steps and put the things in his hands on the ground.
"Why are you here?"
"But today, it's already past noon, and Big Brother Shen hasn't come over for dinner. My mother is worried, so she asked me to come over and take a look."
Shen Qiwen's eyes moved, and when he heard her words, for some reason, he felt a little lost in his heart.
"Something delayed me going up the mountain today. I originally thought that after putting my things down, I would go to the foot of the mountain again."
Shen Qiwen spoke, then remembered something and took the backpack behind him.
"Last time I saw you liked these, I brought you a few more."
Jiang Wan subconsciously looked down.
When he saw what was in the backpack, his eyes widened.
"T-These...are they for me?"
Her voice rose slightly, her face filled with shock.
This is nothing but a basket of stones.
It's not an ordinary stone, but the kind that can produce jade.
The piece that Shen Qiwen gave her last time was just polished out by her a few days ago. It was a piece of translucent jade with a purple hue all over.
"No, this is too expensive..."
After saying this, Jiang Wan couldn't help but wonder again, "Brother Shen, do you know if these stones can be mined into jade?"
"Know."
Shen Qiwen's eyes were very calm, but Jiang Wan was shocked by his extravagance.
You know...and you're still giving away these valuable things?
"I know...will you give it back to me?"
Isn't he afraid that she will rely on him and run away with the money?
You know, if an ordinary person could dig out a piece of jade from this stone, it would be enough to earn him many years of income.
"These stones are of no use to me. I might as well give them to someone who loves them."
Shen Qiwen's gaze fell on her face, a hint of smile flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Shen Boyuan's pupils dilated slightly.
he……
This... this person is really his son?
And those stones... didn't his son guard them very closely? He wouldn't even let anyone dig them up, preferring to keep them in the mountains rather than bring them out.
Why did you give it to this little girl voluntarily?
Could it be that... this son has finally come to his senses?
“Ahem—”
Shen Boyuan saw that Shen Qiwen had been standing here for most of the day, talking to Jiang Wan, and had actually ignored him at all, so he couldn't help but cough lightly.
Hearing his cough, Shen Qiwen glanced sideways.
Seeing Shen Boyuan standing beside him, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Dad? When did you come back?"
Shen Boyuan: "..."
I've been standing here for a long time before I realized it.
This brat is always making people angry.
"I just came back, and I quickly opened the door. What does it look like to stand outside and talk?"
He glared at Shen Qiwen unhappily.
Shen Qiwen’s reaction was unknown, but Jiang Wan felt a little embarrassed.
"Girl from the Jiang family, right? Come in quickly."
Shen Boyuan looked at Jiang Wan with a rare smile on his face, and threw the cow rope in his hand into Shen Qiwen's arms.
"Go park the bullock cart."
Shen Qiwen nodded and turned to park the ox cart.
"Uncle Shen, you haven't had lunch yet, right? I brought some food here, and you and Brother Shen can eat together."
Fortunately, we brought enough food when we arrived, enough for two people.
"They are just some home-cooked dishes. I hope Uncle Shen won't take offense."
“No, no…”
Shen Boyuan's gaze fell on Jiang Wan, with satisfaction in his eyes.
As they were talking, the two of them walked into the yard.
The food box was placed on the table. When the lid was opened, the aroma inside wafted out.
When Shen Qiwen walked into the yard, he smelled the faint aroma of rice floating in the air.
The food was still hot. It was still warm in the pot when she came. It was just the right time to eat it.
Shen Boyuan's eyes lit up.
This scent...
He couldn't wait to pick up a pair of chopsticks and picked up a piece of braised pork closest to him.
"Mmm, delicious, delicious."
As soon as I took a bite, the soup burst into my mouth, and the rich and fragrant taste lingered between my lips and teeth.
For so many years, he and Shen Qiwen have lived together. They are not particular about food and eat whatever is available.
Now when I eat braised pork, I realize that in the past years, I had to eat only coarse food.
Occasionally they would go to town for a few meals, but the trip there and back was a bit long and they both had other things to do.
I simply bought some dry food from the town, and therefore ate steamed buns and pancakes almost every meal.
Shen Qiwen put down his things and walked over, and saw Shen Boyuan sitting there eating meat with big mouthfuls.
He had already eaten most of the plate of braised pork.
Shen Qiwen's face darkened. His favorite food was braised pork.
As soon as he sat down, Shen Boyuan picked up the last piece of braised pork with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
“…”
"Son, come sit down and eat. No wonder you haven't been eating at home recently. Jiang's cooking skills are really good."
The name gradually became Jiang Yatou, and Shen Boyuan was fortunate that he did not feel awkward.
"The braised pork is gone."
"Forehead……"
Shen Boyuan looked up at him awkwardly, and the movement of picking up the food in his hand paused.
"Well... since you've tasted Jiang Yatou's cooking, just consider it as a way to honor your father."
Thinking of this, Shen Boyuan's guilt immediately dissipated.
"Ah Qi, have you forgotten how your father raised you with all his hard work? We shouldn't have done that just by eating a plate of braised pork..."
