When Huo Junshan returned with the chicken soup, Yun Ningyan had already adjusted her mindset and was much more composed in front of him.
Huo Junshan put the chicken in a small bowl for her, telling her to eat the meat first and then drink the soup.
The chicken soup contained red dates and goji berries, with a thick layer of butter floating on the surface. She frowned; it was too fatty.
"Huo Junshan, this is too oily, I think it's too fatty. You can drink the oil on top."
People in this era lacked food and drink, and when they bought meat, they preferred fatty pieces, but she couldn't even eat a single piece of fatty meat.
Huo Junshan had no choice but to drink the soup with oil on top before she slowly began to eat.
She ate a few bites of steamed egg custard, a few pieces of chicken, and drank half a bowl of soup, but then she couldn't eat anymore.
She pushed the bowl in front of Huo Junshan and said, "Huo Junshan, I can't eat anymore, you eat it for me."
Yun Ningyan rested her chin on her wrist, admiring Huo Junshan's eating manners. He was quite refined, eating quickly, but his table manners were not unsightly.
After finishing his meal, Huo Junshan went home and told her not to go out and to get some rest before he left.
He had just returned home when Wang Cuihong was already back in the kitchen, washing pots and pans and dishes. He didn't pay any attention and went straight back to his room.
That night, he couldn't sleep at all.
The girl not only didn't reject him, but also blushed. What does this mean? It means that the girl also has feelings for him.
The girl's slender waist and delicate skin became increasingly clear to his touch, making him feel unbearably hot all over, with a burning sensation in his lower abdomen. He tried to calm himself down, closed his eyes, and tried to fall asleep, but the more he tried to sleep, the clearer the sensations became in his mind.
Gradually, he found it increasingly unbearable, and quietly lifted the thin blanket with his large hand...
The next morning, Huo Jianshe got up very early and saw his third brother washing his pants and bed sheets in the yard. Curious, he went over and asked, "Third brother, didn't you just change your clothes yesterday? And Mom just changed the bed sheets yesterday too."
Huo Junshan glared at him and said, "What do you know? Hurry up and wash your face and go to work."
Huo Jiandang and Huo Jianjun exchanged a glance. Let's not mince words; Lao Wu might not understand, but they understood perfectly well.
Huo Jiandang casually asked, "Third brother, when are you going to marry her?"
“Yeah, otherwise you’d never finish washing your pants, Third Brother,” Huo Jianjun chimed in.
Huo Junshan raised his hand to strike, but the two of them ran faster than rabbits.
Yun Ningyan felt much better, so she went to work with Lin Mengmeng.
As soon as she entered the field, Huo Junshan arrived. Huo Junshan didn't dare to look her in the eye; he felt guilty about what happened last night.
"Didn't I tell you to rest at home? Why are you here?"
Yun Ningyan didn't notice his guilty conscience. "I'm much better today. You go and get back to work. I can manage on my own."
Huo Junshan remembered what his second brother had said that morning. He really wanted to marry her as soon as possible. He put one arm around Yun Ningyan's waist and said, "If you're tired, go back and rest. I can take care of you."
Yun Ningyan smiled gently, "Who needs you to support me? I can support myself. Besides, I'm not easy to support."
She urged him to hurry up, as she still had work to do.
Huo Junshan pinched her cheek. "Okay, I'm leaving. I'll bring you lunch."
After saying that, he walked away, turning back every few steps.
Yun Ningyan only plans to work on 2 centimeters today. It's not that she can't do it, but all the other new educated youths are about the same, and she can't stand out too much, lest she attract attention.
It was almost noon when she waited for a while, but no one came.
Puzzled, I went to the edge of the field to see what was going on.
Huo Junshan didn't go back to bring food. His mother said she would bring him food, but the person who came was his sister-in-law's cousin, Wang Cuilian.
Wang Cuilian brought the food to him and said sweetly, "Brother Huo, Auntie said she wouldn't bring you food anymore, she asked me to bring it to you instead. Auntie also said that we should cultivate our relationship so that we can get married later..."
So many people on the ridge heard it. He turned his head and saw Yun Ningyan looking at him mockingly, and his heart panicked.
He yelled, "Get out!"
Upon hearing the word "marriage," Yun Ningyan turned and left without even finishing her meal, heading straight back to the educated youth settlement.
Huo Junshan wanted to go after her, but with so many people around, he decided to wait and find an opportunity to go back and find her later.
Wang Cuilian then said, "Brother Huo, it's me, Cuilian. We were betrothed, have you forgotten?"
Huo Junshan was extremely frustrated. He had finally made some progress, and now it was all over.
He irritably pushed Wang Cuilian aside, turned and left.
Wang Cuilian angrily shouted from behind, "Brother Huo, Brother Huo..."
Huo Junshan didn't even go home; he went straight to the educated youth settlement.
No matter how much he called out, no one would open the door for him or answer him; the door was locked from the inside.
"Yanyan, open the door! I know you're in there. Please open the door and let me explain. I don't even know that woman. How would I know who she is?"
"Yanyan, if you don't open the door, I'm going to break it down!"
Just as he was about to ram the door, it opened with a loud bang from the inside.
Yun Ningyan's face was very ugly. After the door opened, she didn't even look at him.
Huo Junshan entered the house and closed the door. He reached out to take Yun Ningyan's hand, but Yun Ningyan dodged him and wouldn't let him touch her.
Huo Junshan scratched his head helplessly and explained, "Yanyan, I don't know anything about that person, please don't be angry, okay?"
Yun Ningyan didn't know why she was angry. They were nothing to each other, and she had no right to be angry, but she just felt uncomfortable.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Huo Junshan sat down on the edge of the bed. He clenched his fist, walked to the bedside, hugged her, and kissed her forehead. "Yanyan, tell me, how can I stop being angry?"
