Chapter 57 You are still here, turning your elbows outward
Zou Meihua took a sip of water and slammed the teacup hard on the table, splashing the remaining water everywhere.
"Meihua, I worked outside all day and didn't bother you! What's wrong with you?" Tan Mingshan stood aside and smiled carefully.
Zou Meihua gnashed her teeth in anger: "It's all because of that unlucky Shang Ruoting."
"How could the eldest brother's wife offend you?" Tan Mingshan racked his brains but couldn't figure out the reason.
"She took away the job I'd been working on for years. Do you think she offended me?"
"Are you serious?" Tan Mingshan couldn't believe it. After all, their family could eat a lot of eggs a year. How could this job just disappear?
"Is this really true?" Zou Meihua slammed the table fiercely. "Humph! This unlucky star won't let me have a good life. So, none of us can hope to succeed."
"In a few days, I'll put some rat poison in the chicken coop and see how she still jumps around."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Tan Mingshan who was still stunned and said, "I'm telling you, Tan Mingshan, if you dare to secretly go to Tan Chen to tip him off, don't blame me for divorcing you."
Tan Mingshan's face was full of embarrassment. On the one hand, he felt sorry for Zou Meihua's lost job, and on the other hand, he was somewhat worried about Tan Chen. If the chickens raised by Shang Ruoting were poisoned to death, the team would definitely punish him. Tan Chen's life was already difficult, and now that this happened, how would he live in the future?
"Meihua, I think we should just forget about this!"
"If you can't raise chickens, don't you have other jobs?"
"Tan Mingshan, shut up!" Zou Meihua yelled, interrupting him.
"I'm already feeling aggrieved enough, and you're still trying to be so ruthless. Do you feel bad for Tan Chen? Fine...then go with him and leave now."
Seeing Zou Meihua getting angry, Tan Mingshan immediately backed down: "Meihua, don't be angry, I won't say anything."
"Hmph! Remember what you said." Zou Meihua said, then walked out angrily...
Shang Ruoting hummed a song all the way, and when she returned home, Old Mrs. Shang had already prepared dinner.
After dinner, Shang Ruoting still locked the kitchen door from the inside and entered the space to soak in the hot spring. At the same time, she used her mind to harvest all the fruits and planted some more.
When he came out of the space, he brought out some hot spring water for Tan Chen to wash as usual.
As for Old Lady Shang, she turned off the lights and went to bed early every day, so Shang Ruoting didn't want to disturb her.
After Tan Chen finished washing up, Shang Ruoting's most troublesome problem came again. Before she even went to bed, the scene of waking up in Tan Chen's arms this morning appeared in her mind, which made her blush again.
Fortunately, Tan Chen couldn't see it, otherwise her face, which was already red to her ears, would definitely make him imagine all kinds of things.
Tan Chen was still leaning against the innermost side of the bed.
"Rest early!"
Shang Ruoting was hesitating about how to lie down on the bed openly, and this sentence gave her a way out.
She didn't say anything, but lay carefully on the edge of the bed, trying to keep a certain distance from Tan Chen.
It can be said that if she moves even a little, she might fall to the ground.
Tan Chen guessed her little thoughts to some extent, but did not expose her. He covered her with the quilt, and soon, she began to breathe evenly.
This time, both of them fell asleep...
The next morning, Shang Ruoting woke up in the same position as the day before. Feeling embarrassed, she deliberately observed Tan Chen. Seeing that he showed no signs of waking up, she quickly got up, put on her clothes and went out.
Shang Ruoting, who thought she had gotten away with it, didn't know that the moment she opened the door, Tan Chen opened his eyes and raised the corners of his lips...
Old Mrs. Shang got up earlier than her these two days. After Shang Ruoting washed up, she said hello to Old Mrs. Shang and went to the chicken coop.
Anyway, these tasks are hers, so the sooner she finishes them, the sooner she’ll be done.
Because it was too early, the chickens had not laid eggs yet. Shang Ruoting quickly cleaned the three chicken coops, put some food in them and left. She planned to come back to collect the eggs before noon.
When she walked outside Mrs. Shang's house, she found that many women carrying small baskets were passing by the path nearby.
Shang Ruoting knew that after the spring rain, many wild vegetables had appeared on the mountain, and these people were going to dig wild vegetables.
She suddenly thought of her previous life. It was in this season that she followed the expedition team to the countryside to check the compatibility of the soil and crops. At that time, many villagers ran to the fields to dig wild vegetables.
The wild vegetable filling for the buns was so delicious that she still remembers it today.
Thinking of this, Shang Ruoting couldn't help swallowing.
When she got home, Mrs. Shang brought the food that was still warm in the pot to the table.
"Tingting, Tan Chen and I just ate, and these are left for you."
Shang Ruoting no longer disliked the simple meals made by Old Lady Shang. Instead, she thought they were delicious. She sat at the table and quickly ate two cornmeal pancakes and a bowl of cabbage soup.
Surprisingly, Tan Chen did not stay in the house today, but sat at the door facing the sky.
Shang Ruoting was a little curious about his actions today.
"Aren't you tired of looking up?"
