After lingering tenderly for a while, Huo Junshan took out a large piece of pork rib from his spatial storage and said, "I'll go to the front and take it to Mother so she can stew it for my elder brother."
Yun Ningyan said, "I'll go with you to see my brother too."
The two walked hand in hand, with Huo Junshan carrying a basket in his other hand.
They entered the Huo family's courtyard.
I saw Wang Cuihong sitting in the yard, and I didn't know she was taking care of Huo Jianguo inside the house.
She saw a large piece of pork rib in the basket that Huo Junshan was carrying.
She exclaimed in surprise, "Third brother, why did you bring so much meat?"
Huo Junshan said expressionlessly, "I got this for my older brother so he can replenish his energy."
Wang Cuihong immediately got up to lift the basket from Huo Junshan's hand, but Huo Junshan abruptly lifted the basket.
Wang Cuihong was surprised to find no one there. She asked in confusion, "Third brother, wasn't this for your eldest brother?"
“It’s for my older brother, but I can’t give it to you. I’ll give it to Mother so she can make it.”
Wang Cuihong looked grim. It was true that she gave the money to Jianguo, but she didn't give it to her; they had already separated their households.
Why give such good stuff back to my mother-in-law? Is it because I'm afraid she'll steal it or what?
Thinking this, she asked aloud, "Third brother, what do you mean? Are you afraid I'll eat you?"
Huo Junshan nodded: "I do have this concern. I'm not only afraid that you'll eat it, but I'm also afraid that you'll secretly give it to your parents."
Wang Cuihong couldn't catch her breath.
Her face turned bright red from holding it in.
The two ignored her and went straight to Li Xiangyun's room.
"Mom, get a piece of pork rib for my older brother. Stew it for him so he can eat more and recover faster."
Li Xiangyun nodded: "Third brother, don't spend money on things. You'll have plenty of expenses after you have a child."
Yun Ningyan smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Mother, it's only natural for the third brother to show concern for his eldest brother's injury."
Huo Junshan took Yun Ningyan's hand: "Let's go see our elder brother."
After they left, Li Xiangyun wiped away the tears in her eyes.
Why!
The two walked into the main room.
Huo Junshan called out, "Big brother, Ningning and I have come to see you!"
"Come in!"
The two went inside and found Huo Jiandang, Zhang Hongying, and Huo Jianshe also in the room.
Huo Junshan walked over and poured Huo Jianguo a cup of spiritual spring water: "Brother, have some water."
Huo Jianguo wanted to say that he wouldn't drink.
But seeing the third brother's eyes, he had no choice but to take the water and drink it.
He didn't know if it was just his imagination, but every time the third brother poured him water, he would feel that his legs didn't hurt as much after drinking it.
But he always watched the water being poured from the kettle with his own eyes.
I'm probably overthinking it.
"I gave Mom a piece of pork rib. She'll stew it for you later. Eat more so your leg will heal faster."
After he finished speaking, he instructed Huo Jiandang and Huo Jianshe: "You two must not go up the mountain alone, it's too dangerous!"
Huo Jianshe nodded and smiled, "Don't worry! I wouldn't dare go alone, I don't have the guts."
Huo Junshan nodded.
He then said to Huo Jianguo, "Brother, if you need anything, just have Lao Wu come to me."
Huo Jianguo nodded: "Okay."
The two of them went outside.
Li Xiangyun was on her way to the kitchen to cook for Huo Jianguo when she said, "Are you going back? Eat here!"
Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "No need, Mother, let's go back and cook."
Huo Junshan went back and started cooking.
He asked, "What would you like to eat?"
Yun Ningyan tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Let's eat stewed chicken! I want braised chicken pieces."
The two went into the kitchen. Huo Junshan cooked, and Yun Ningyan helped with the fire.
Chicken stewed in an earthenware pot is especially delicious, with a wonderful wok hei (wok aroma).
It's a flavor that can't be replicated with a gas stove.
Huo Junshan went into the space to steam rice, and then came out to stew chicken.
The two enjoyed a delicious meal, and Yun Ningyan ate quite a lot.
Huo Junshan served her both chicken legs and then ate half a bowl of rice.
"You're about to start work, so don't go. Just stay home and rest!"
Yun Ningyan nodded: "Okay, I'll cook for you at home and make you mung bean soup."
After the two finished their meal, Huo Junshan cleared away the dishes.
After the two finished their meal, they went back to their bedroom to rest.
Educated youth settlement.
Yang Laidi received another letter from her mother today.
His mother told him to send food home.
She didn't have enough food, but she didn't dare not send any home.
But besides Zhao Weiguo, she couldn't think of anyone else who could lend it to her.
Left with no other choice, she approached Zhao Weiguo again, hoping to borrow some grain.
Zhao Weiguo was just waiting for her to say that!
"Zhao Zhiqing, I need to talk to you about something. Can you come out for a bit?"
She stood at the door of the male educated youth's dormitory and called out to them.
Everyone in the room looked at Zhao Weiguo.
Sun Pengfei and the other male educated youth who had just arrived all looked at him curiously.
Zhao Weiguo didn't feel embarrassed at all, and went out as soon as he opened the door.
When Yang Laidi saw him come out, she said apologetically, "Zhao Zhiqing, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you."
Zhao Weiguo said, "Let's go over there and talk!"
Yang Laidi was the first to walk out.
A slight smile appeared on Zhao Weiguo's lips.
They also left the educated youth settlement.
He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and it had finally come.
When they reached the grove of trees near the educated youth settlement, Yang Laidi stopped.
She looked troubled and asked with her head down, "Zhao Zhiqing, um, I, I want to borrow some grain from you."
"I don't know if you could..."
Zhao Weiguo laughed and said, "Whatever it is, it's not a problem. How much do you want?"
Yang Laidi exclaimed in surprise, "Really? You're really willing to lend it to me?"
