Chapter 122 Earthy Smell



Chapter 122 Earthy Smell

Even though Jiang Yang and Xu Zhishu had just said it, Jiang Chao still asked another question. It was because Jiang Yingying looked like she was about to vomit and it really scared him.

He Yan pursed his lips and said, "Yingying is much better now. She was uncomfortable just now because she smelled the earthy smell on big brother."

He leaned in closer and sniffed Jiang Chao's body, and he indeed didn't smell any earthy smell. However, Jiang Yingying said that Jiang Chao must have this smell.

"Brother, did you go anywhere before you came back?"

He also wanted to know what caused the earthy smell. If he could figure out the source of it, he could avoid it next time.

He Yan didn't want to see Jiang Yingying so uncomfortable again, nor did he want her to feel uncomfortable because of some unpleasant smell on him.

Jiang Chao's heart was filled with an indescribable complex emotion.

He explained his discovery to He Yan using the same words he had used with Xu Zhishu and the others.

He Yan nodded, "So it was the loess from the rain. Thank you, brother. I understand." He said, "I'll go back first. Yingying is still waiting for me at home."

After saying this, He Yan hurried back to his yard.

He really missed Jiang Yingying. Seeing his figure really disappear behind the courtyard gate, Jiang Chao didn't know for a moment whether he should be glad that this man didn't turn around and wash his hands like his wife did when he left, which hurt his heart.

When Jiang Chao turned around, he saw Xu Zhishu and Jiang Yang already sitting at the table and chairs in the yard.

Jiang Yang couldn't help but went to the kitchen to get out the bowl and chopsticks. Now he was holding the small bowl and slurping the noodles.

Xu Zhishu glanced at him and said, "I'm not hungry anymore, do you want to eat?"

"Eat!" Jiang Chao said angrily.

On the other side, He Yan hurried back to his yard. Seeing that Jiang Yingying didn't touch the bowl and chopsticks in front of her, he pursed his lips and said, "Why don't you eat first? What if you get hungry? You don't have to wait for me next time."

Jiang Yingying was a little hungry, but she managed to control herself.

She said, "I just drank the sugar water that Yanyan made, so I'm not that hungry anymore. When Yanyan is at home, our family must eat together."

He Yan walked to the well in the yard, drew water, washed his hands, and also washed his face and neck.

"Next time you're hungry, eat first, don't wait for me. If you go hungry because of me, I'll feel bad."

After washing his hands two or three times and smelling himself to make sure there was no strange earthy smell, He Yan dared to come to Jiang Yingying.

Maybe it was because the vomiting just now was too severe, or maybe it was because He Yan washed it clean enough, so when he went to deliver the noodles just now, he also deliberately kept a distance when talking to Jiang Chao.

Jiang Yingying did not have any disgusting reaction during this meal, and the two of them finished the meal in a warm atmosphere.

However, compared to the two bowls before, Jiang Yingying ate less now and only ate two bowls.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Yingying lay in bed with her eyes open for a long time. She kept telling herself to go to sleep, but it was obvious that it didn't work.

She touched her belly and made a decision.

Jiang Yingying turned sideways to look at He Yan. The room was pitch dark, so she couldn't see clearly. She got up on tiptoe, and just as she made some movement and her feet touched the ground, she heard a man's voice.

"Yingying, what's wrong?"

He Yan's voice was hoarse as if he had just woken up. He sat up. With his good night vision, he saw Jiang Yingying walking barefoot on the ground and frowned.

In the end, what happened was that Jiang Yingying was carried back to the bed by He Yan. After she put on her shoes, she waited obediently in the room while He Yan went to the kitchen to make her a midnight snack.

After Jiang Yingying had eaten her fill, she began to feel sleepy. When He Yan finished cleaning the kitchen and returned to the room, she was already sleeping soundly in bed.

There was warmth in his eyes, his thin lips touched her forehead, he tucked the quilt in for her, put his hand lightly on her waist, and they fell asleep together.

The next day, He Yan was thinking about the breakfast that Jiang Yingying wanted to eat last night, so he prepared wontons and sauerkraut pancakes in large quantities.

I'm not afraid of doing more, but I'm afraid of not doing enough, and Jiang Yingying will go hungry.

When Jiang Yingying woke up, He Yan had been out working to support the family for more than two hours, and the black back dog had been running around in the yard for a long time.

She washed up slowly, then went to the kitchen to heat up the breakfast that He Yan had left for her.

After breakfast, Jiang Yingying continued the story she had drawn yesterday. If she continued drawing the comic strip for a few more days, the story would be finished.

Occasionally, she would crumple up a discarded drawing into a ball of paper and use it to tease the black dog curled up at her feet.

At this time, someone knocked on the gate.

Jiang Yingying raised her voice and asked, "Who is it?"

"Yingying, it's me."

"Brother, my door is not closed." Jiang Yingying stood up. The moment the blackback heard Jiang Chao's voice, he ran away.

Jiang Chao opened the door, looked at Jiang Yingying who was walking towards him, and said hurriedly: "Wait, wait, you stand there first."

Jiang Yingying stopped in confusion. She looked at Jiang Chao, who looked nervous, and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"

"Ahem, listen to me, step back first, you, yes, you go back to the pavilion and sit down first." Jiang Chao said, "Walk slowly, don't be in a hurry."

"Oh." Jiang Yingying sat back on the chair she was sitting on obediently. After sitting down, she looked at Jiang Chao and said, "Brother, I'm seated."

"Okay." Jiang Chao took a step forward and asked, "Yingying, how is it?"

"What's going on?" Before Jiang Chao knocked on the door, Jiang Yingying was drawing the story she had just figured out. At the moment, her mind was in a knot and she was not sure what Jiang Chao meant.

"I'm here. Do you smell anything? Do you feel uncomfortable or nauseous?"

Jiang Chao heard from Xu Zhishu last night that Jiang Yingying was pregnant with twins, which made her life more difficult than that of other pregnant women.

Besides, this is his beloved sister, whom he loves from the bottom of his heart. Not to mention whether she is pregnant with twins or a single baby, he would be heartbroken if she fell or had a cut on her knee, let alone something as serious as being pregnant.

I heard Jiang Chao asking about the taste, and his worried face and the dark circles under his eyes.

Jiang Yingying felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She stood up and walked to Jiang Chao.

"Walk slowly, walk slowly."

Seeing her move, Jiang Chao panicked and hurriedly walked over to her and supported her.

"You are different now. You should pay more attention to your health and don't walk with such big steps. It makes me nervous..."

"Also, don't cook lunch. I'll do it later. Who has been doing the housework these days? You didn't do any work..."

Jiang Yingying never expected that Jiang Chao would be so long-winded. While listening to his mumbling, she pulled him to sit on the rattan chair in the pavilion.
