Chapter 54 Did He Understand?
As soon as Shen He returned home, he saw Su Ranran looking at him with sparkling eyes.
He looked like he was waiting for a savior.
"You're finally back!" Su Ranran said with joy as she pulled him into the house.
Shen He raised his eyebrows and looked at the white and tender little hand that was holding his arm.
"What's the matter?"
Shen He let her pull him away, and his usually cold eyes softened unconsciously.
"I want you to help me read a book. I don't understand it."
Shen He: ...
I don’t know why, but I feel that the “book” she is talking about is not simple at all.
After all, there is not a single idle book on her bookshelf.
But Shen He couldn't figure out what kind of book could make her so happy?
Su Ranran didn't say anything and just pulled him into the house on the right.
The house was simply furnished with a table and two stools, but no bed.
This is the room she was going to use as a study, but it hasn't been renovated yet.
There was a row of books neatly placed on the table, which were picked out by Su Ranran from the space.
In the middle of the desk, a tattered book was spread out.
Su Ranran pulled him to sit on a stool, then picked up the book and put it in his hand, "This is it."
The book in my hand was unexpectedly a little damaged, as if it would be broken if I wasn't careful.
The words above were written with a brush, and the handwriting looked vigorous and powerful.
When he saw clearly what was written on the cover, Shen He's eyes froze.
At this time, Su Ranran also sat down and looked at Shen He eagerly.
As if she believed that he could answer her questions.
Shen He glanced at her expectant eyes, paused, and then opened the book in his hand.
Although he was born in the countryside, he had already gone to military school for further studies a few years ago because of his outstanding performance in the army.
Cultural knowledge has also been greatly improved.
Although the notebook in his hand was written in traditional Chinese characters and was arranged vertically from back to front, it looked difficult to understand, but this did not pose a problem for him.
"How is it? Do you understand?" Su Ranran asked him curiously.
After all, I graduated from college in my previous life, and I was reborn with the blessing of the space spring water. It should be impossible for me to not understand anything.
But it was so strange that she didn't understand what it meant at all.
"Let me study it first."
Shen He forced himself to look up at her, then quickly shifted his gaze back to the book, as if he was completely absorbed in it.
Su Ranran suddenly began to doubt her life.
So he understood this, right?
No one knew how much time had passed, but Shen He still didn't say anything. However, his focused look left no doubt that he must have understood it and was fascinated by it.
Su Ranran: …
Seeing that he couldn't finish reading it in a short time, she simply didn't disturb him and turned to go to the kitchen.
Just now she had just cooked the porridge and prepared the ingredients, but hadn't started cooking yet.
Su Ranran also knew how to cook when she was at the Shen family, but before her rebirth, her cooking skills were not very good and she could only cook well.
After her rebirth, because she was pregnant, her mother-in-law didn't let her cook at all, so she never cooked a meal again.
It was Su Ranran who strongly requested to have this dinner tonight.
After all, it was not realistic to eat canteen meals every day. She was just pregnant, not disabled.
Except for the discomfort caused by morning sickness in the beginning, she is now fine after being treated with space water.
Even the smell of fish no longer makes me sick.
There is not much on the island except for seafood. You can buy fresh seafood at the fishing port at any time. The price is cheap and no ticket is required.
When Su Ranran had nothing to do in the afternoon, she took a walk and brought back some fish and shrimp.
For the shrimps, she simply blanchs them in water with some ginger slices, and then eats them with the sauce.
The sauce Su Ranran is used in the space and tastes very delicious.
She used the small sea fish to cook fish soup.
There was already a plate of greens on the table, leftovers from her morning gift giving, and a plate of kelp, a specialty of the island, which she had made into a cold kelp salad.
The dish is simple, but the ingredients are fresh and look very appetizing.
But she had already prepared the meal, but the man still showed no sign of coming out.
Su Ranran tiptoed towards the study and saw Shen He still looking at it intently, as if he was deeply immersed in it.
Su Ranran: …
I don't know why, but looking at Shen He at this moment, I felt like I was in a martial arts movie and a hero got a secret manual.
But...why can he understand it?
Su Ranran couldn't figure it out, but she didn't want to disturb him, so she just took a shower first.
Afraid that no one would fetch water for Shen He when he went on a mission in the future, she asked him to put a water tank at the door of the shower room so that she could fetch water herself when taking a bath.
But this is only temporary. After the fetus is stable at three months, she won't have to be so cautious.
Just after taking a shower, Su Ranran’s stomach started to growl.
Fortunately, Shen He finally came out at this time. However, the expression on his face was a little strange.
"How is it?"
Su Ranran was extremely curious. What did the book say?
"Eat first and I'll tell you later." As he spoke, Shen He glanced at her rumbling stomach.
Su Ranran: …
She couldn't help but feel embarrassed when she heard her stomach growling at an inopportune time.
In the end, I had to suppress my curiosity and eat first.
After entering the kitchen, Shen He did not sit and wait for food like men of that era, but instead made her a bowl of fish soup.
He knew Su Ranran's condition better than anyone else and naturally knew that she would not feel nauseous after eating fish now.
Su Ranran, who got a bowl of fish soup, didn't care about the hotness and just blew on it while drinking.
It was as if he couldn't wait to finish it in one bite so that he could hear him talk about what the book was about.
"Eat slowly."
A hint of helplessness flashed across Shen He's face, but his hands were still peeling shrimps for her methodically.
The shrimps, as thick as fingers, seemed unusually well-behaved in his hands. He just peeled and pinched them, and a whole piece of shrimp meat came out of the shrimp shell.
It looked slow and steady, but before long, a lot of shrimps were piled up in the bowl in front of Su Ranran.
He had specially prepared this bowl for her to fill with shrimp and fish.
"That's enough. I don't want it anymore."
After finally swallowing the shrimp in her mouth, Su Ranran saw that he was about to pass it over again, so she quickly covered the bowl with her hand.
She wanted to finish her meal quickly so that she could listen to him talk about the book.
Hearing this, Shen He stopped peeling shrimps.
But his next move made Su Ranran's eyes widen.
The man washed his hands and ate the whole shrimp, shell included, without peeling them.
It’s the same with eating fish. If it’s a small fish, they won’t spit out the bones. Instead, they will just chew the fish and eat it whole, including the bones.
Looking at the snow-white fish meat just placed in her bowl, Su Ranran couldn't help but fall silent.
