Chapter Forty-Eight: A Pair of Rain Boots



Xu Nuo woke up late, and when she went to the commune canteen to find Xu Yan, everyone had already eaten.

There weren't many people in the cafeteria, and they were all openly or secretly sizing up the schoolteacher from the city.

Xu Nuo was already used to it and didn't care at all. She just greeted the people she knew and waited for Xu Yan to get ready so they could go to Duan San's house together.

Lu Xueyun passed the bowl from behind, her gaze sweeping over Xu Nuo's face with a mixture of concealment and disgust.

Xu Nuo casually looked back at the past.

Since the last vegetable ball incident, Lu Xueyun has treated Xu Nuo like an enemy, and she has also completely broken up with Xu Yan.

She gritted her teeth hard.

Thinking of Xu Yan's increasingly fair skin, he felt even more anxious and impatient.

After the two left, Lu Xueyun went to find Wang Ting and immediately started yelling at her: "Wang Ting, I gave you all the money, why haven't you gone to get the lotion from Xu Yan yet? Did you embezzle my money?"

Wang Ting was inexplicably scolded, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she said ingratiatingly, "I haven't seen her yet, have I? I'll go find her later."

Wang Ting was also anxious.

The educated youth met every day. Xu Nuo was stunningly beautiful, and Xu Yan was becoming more and more beautiful every day. Wang Ting was envious of her.

She wondered if Luo Chen would fall in love with her if she became beautiful too.

As soon as Xu Yan arrived at Duan San's house, Duan San called her over: "Xu Yan, my brother Li doesn't want your money. Here, take your money back."

Xu Yan panicked: "How can this be? I can't take his things if he doesn't want money."

Duan San wasn't stupid. Although Xu Yan only came here every few days because of the medicine and food, he could tell that Luo Chen cared about Xu Yan. He pleaded with Xu Yan not to accept Brother Li's things, and after much persuasion, he made up a reason: "Your line is selling well, and Eighth Master gave Brother Li a reward. You should keep it and not waste Brother Li's good intentions."

Indeed, thanks to Xu Nuo's herbal water, both Xu Yan's snacks and grains sold very well.

Xu Nuo, holding a bowl of chestnuts, wandered around the kitchen like a little quail.

When Xu Yan kneaded the dough, she followed to watch. When Xu Yan went to wash the vegetables, she followed to the vegetable basin.

They're incredibly well-behaved.

Xu Yan couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Nuonuo, why don't you go sit down and rest for a while?"

Xu Nuo shook her head, put a chestnut in her mouth, and then stuffed one into Xu Yan's mouth, shaking her head: "Hmm~ Everyone is busy, I have to find something to do too."

Her job is to peel chestnuts, one for herself and one for Xu Yan.

Luo Chen chopped the chicken and brought it in: "It's ready to be stir-fried."

Xu Yan took it and peeked inside: "Has Brother Li arrived?"

Luo Chen paused for a moment: "No, he just went to the city with Duan San."

The two big men walked quickly, and it only took them an hour and a half to get home.

It was drizzling a bit today, and Duan San was soaked to the bone. Xu Nuo asked him, "Where's Li Xian?"

"Brother Li said he has to go back."

Xu Nuo said "Oh," but unexpectedly, Li Xian went back and brought her clothes.

She took the bag: "It's dry already?"

He looked a little sleepy and gave a soft "hmm".

I didn't sleep last night; I sat by the stove all night drying her clothes.

Xu Nuo was about to put the bag away when she touched something hard.

She opened the bag, and inside was a pair of rain boots.

That's her size.

She glanced at Li Xian, who had already quickly turned around to chop wood.
