Throughout the journey, Lin Chaonan never put Yue Jiuyue down. Even though his clothes were soaked and he was so thirsty he almost suffered heatstroke, he still didn't feel comfortable letting the "heartbroken" Yue Jiuyue walk on her own.
Yue Jiuyue was touched, but physically uncomfortable.
Lin Chaonan's clothes were soaked through, so how could hers be any different? With her front sticky and uncomfortable, it would be strange if Yue Jiuyue wasn't uncomfortable.
But all of this was Lin Chaonan's love for the original owner. After Yue Jiuyue mentioned wanting to leave several more times, and was refused by Lin Chaonan each time, she stopped talking about it.
Back home, Lin Chaonan carried Yue Jiuyue to her room, gently helped her lie down, and then went out to drink three large bowls of cold boiled water.
Yue Jiuyue: (*?◇?)
She was jealous!
The original owner of this body had such a filial eldest son! She wanted one too! The world owes her an eldest son just like Lin Chaonan!!!
Oh, no, Lin Chaonan is now her eldest son! She is the dutiful mother!
So happy~~
Yue Jiuyue was overjoyed.
"Third son, you must be exhausted. I'll stew a chicken for you at noon to help you recover."
After saying that, he instructed Lin Chaobei.
"Fourth brother, hurry up and catch an old hen in the chicken coop, slaughter it for your third brother to nourish his body!"
Lin Chaonan: ~(′?︵?`)~
I suddenly don't want to eat chicken necks today.
Actually, he wanted to switch places with Yue Jiuyue several times along the way, but for some reason, his third brother would rather die of exhaustion than let him carry her.
Now, his mother even wants him to give his third brother some nourishing chicken, and he suddenly understands his third brother's little scheme.
Competing for favor!
In the past, his eldest brother and he were the most prominent in front of their mother. His second brother surpassed him and his eldest brother during the few days when he decided to take his place in the military service. His third brother surpassed him during the few days last year when he was learning how to process medicinal herbs.
After that, his third brother was still the same as before. Unexpectedly, today he finally got his chance and made a strong impression on their mother. His third brother will definitely be their mother's favorite eldest son from now on!
That's so cunning!
But he couldn't say anything, because he hadn't taken good care of their mother today. He knew she was heartbroken because her maternal grandmother's family had left without saying goodbye, but he hadn't taken good care of her.
Thinking about how his mother had just fallen into the ditch by the roadside, he felt like slapping himself.
However, he was indeed wrong. His third brother didn't have to eat an old hen to nourish his body, did he?
Just as he was about to say something, his third brother said what he wanted to say.
"Mom, we need to keep the hen to lay eggs. If we want a rooster, that's fine. Rooster meat is tender, and when we cook it until it's very soft, I'll roll out some noodles and put them in. It'll definitely be delicious! Mom, you haven't tasted my cooking yet, have you? Today, Mom, you have to have a good taste. If it's good, I'll cook for you every day from now on!"
Whether Lin Chaonan can cook or not is still up for debate, but what he said really touched my heart!
Yue Jiuyue was moved again.
"Alright, I'll be waiting to try the third brother's cooking this afternoon."
"Okay, Mother, lie down and rest well. I'll go get you a basin of warm water from the sun. Mother, wash up in a bit. After Third Brother cleans the chicken, I'll cook it for you."
As the third brother spoke, he went outside and brought over Yue Jiuyue's special bath tub, then poured in half a bucket of sun-dried water.
"Mother, please wash up first, and I'll go back and change my clothes."
