She was somewhat surprised, raised an eyebrow, walked out of the courtyard gate, looked around but didn't see anyone suspicious.
But then I realized who it was.
This guy's pretty sensible... Hmm, not bad!
She didn't hesitate to accept the gifts; they were a thank-you present, and she figured she might as well take them.
I quickly prepared and marinated the wild game, planning to make some and send it to my uncle.
It was still early, so she worked quickly and packed the food into a food container.
After thinking about it, I figured that the person was in the mountains and probably didn't have any seasonings, so I packed another food box, went back to my room, tore off a piece of paper, and wrote a sentence: Take this back and eat it.
The paper was placed on the table in the yard.
Although she didn't know if he would come today, even if he didn't, it wouldn't be bad for her to eat it when she got back in the evening, given that it was almost autumn.
He picked up the food box for his uncle, hopped on his bicycle, and went to the research institute.
The old gatekeeper saw her coming, but because he didn't recognize her, he didn't let her in.
"Little girl, who are you looking for?"
Bai Yajing held up the food box in her hand and explained to him with a smile, "Grandpa, my uncle is Bai Yunshu. He's been working overtime lately, and I'm a little worried about his health, so I brought him some food and a coat. It's gotten colder these past few days."
Upon hearing that she was Bai Yunshu's niece, the gatekeeper immediately beamed with joy, "Oh! You're Bai's niece?"
"Come in quickly, I'll call him for you. Outsiders aren't allowed in here, please wait a moment!"
Bai Yajing knew the rules here, so she just smiled sweetly and agreed.
It seems her uncle is still the same as before, a prominent figure wherever he goes.
When Bai Yunshu heard his niece calling from the guardhouse, he immediately put down the half-finished drawing he was working on, quickly left his office, and went downstairs.
"Darling! What brings you here? Aren't you at work today?"
Bai Yajing smiled and stuffed the food box and coat she was holding into his arms.
"Uncle, I've been a little worried since you haven't been back lately. I just happened to catch some wild game, so I cooked it and brought it over to you."
Do you have enough clothes? It's gotten a bit colder these past few days.
Bai Yunshu was touched and reached out to take the coat. “It’s enough, it’s all enough. This coat that was sent to me is more than enough!”
It's getting late, you should go to work soon, don't be late. Everything's fine here, take care of yourself.
Bai Yajing nodded. The items had been delivered, and it was time for her to go to work.
"Then, Uncle, if you have something to say, just ask Comrade Liu to come and talk to me."
I originally thought of having Liu Meiling relay the message, but considering my uncle's avoidance attitude, I decided to have Liu Shenglin do it instead.
After the uncle and nephew parted ways, they each went to work.
In the courtyard, a figure quickly scaled the wall and entered.
He put the wild fruit, firewood, and clean clothes in the yard.
Just as I was about to leave, I smelled the fragrance.
I followed the smell to the table.
As soon as I picked up the note and looked at it, I couldn't help but smile.
He opened the box, picked up a piece with his hand and ate it; his eyes lit up instantly.
He's not very good at cooking, but his specialty is grilling meat. After all, when surviving in the wild, the game he eats most often is the wild game he grills himself.
This girl's cooking skills are really good!
I couldn't resist and finished it in a few bites. I then washed the box and put it on the table.
He had no pen on him and couldn't write a reply, so he scratched his head, pulled out a stick, and drew a few lines on the ground.
Two words: Thank you.
He couldn't stay any longer; this was a crucial moment in the plan, so he nimbly climbed over the wall and left.
