Du Yuhan looked directly at Han Yixian and said, "Would you believe me if I said I could get hundreds or thousands of tons, or even more, of grain?"
Han Yi stared at Du Yuhan for a long time before finally saying, "Yuhan, can you really get so much food?"
Du Yuhan said, "I can get not only food, but also fertilizer, cloth and many other supplies, as long as you have time. I just can't tell you where they come from, because they only trust me."
Han Yixian took a few deep breaths and said, "This matter cannot be rushed. I need to plan it carefully. I will go back and discuss it with Qi Shen to see how we can make it flawless."
Han Yixian grabbed Du Yuhan's shoulders and looked at her, saying, "Yuhan, you must remember, if there's even the slightest danger while you're gathering supplies, don't push yourself. After all, this situation isn't your responsibility. I don't want you to be in danger."
Du Yuhan nodded and said, "Don't worry, there's no danger."
Han Yixian said, "We still need to raise funds to buy grain as soon as possible. After all, this is not a small amount."
Du Yuhan said, "This time you can exchange the grain for antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewelry, etc., without cash."
Han Yixian said, "That's great. This is much easier than raising funds. Antiques and calligraphy aren't worth much these days. Your request shouldn't be difficult to fulfill."
Do you want to come back to the city with me today? Go home and visit. Stay there for a few days, then I'll bring you back. Qi Shen, the three of us can discuss this properly.
Du Yuhan nodded after thinking for a moment and said, "Okay, I also want to go home and visit. I think this time I'll bring my mother and two children to the countryside to stay for a while. It will be more convenient to do things here, and we won't have to hide anything we eat."
Oh, right, I'll pick some watermelons and cantaloupes later. I planted some in the backyard, and they're growing really well. I can't eat them all myself, so I gave some to my dad and Uncle Liang, and there are still a lot left. I'll take some back with me this time. I'll also send some to the Jiang family.
The peaches in the yard were already ripe, and we'd already eaten a lot. By the time my mom and the others arrived, they'd almost all been eaten.
The peaches on the peach tree in Luancheng's courtyard should have been ripe long ago at this time of year. I wonder how Luancheng's courtyard is doing?
Han Yixian said, "The courtyard is lovely, I've kept it. It holds many wonderful memories for us, how could I bear to give it to someone else?"
I thought you were gone, and that place was my only solace. I thought I'd spend my later years there, surrounded by our memories. That's why my aunt has been taking care of me.
Hearing this, Du Yuhan felt a pang of sadness and couldn't help but say, "Why would you need to retire there? You'll definitely be staying here from now on."
Han Yixian looked intently at Du Yuhan and said, "Yuhan, you've already forgiven me in your heart, haven't you? I'm going to be with you from now on, so of course I won't go back there."
Du Yuhan snorted and said, "It depends on your performance. If you perform well, I'll give you a chance to be evaluated."
Han Yixian was overjoyed upon hearing this. Du Yuhan's words meant she had forgiven him. With a little more effort, he could soon be back as Du Yuhan's fiancé. He was instantly filled with energy.
He said excitedly, "Yuhan, I will definitely do my best."
Du Yuhan looked at Han Yixian, who was grinning from ear to ear, and said, "It's such a waste to leave that little courtyard empty. You're not going back to live there anyway, so why not let someone who needs it live there? Aunt Han's family or Uncle Yao's family would be fine. Besides, a house will only fall into disrepair faster if no one lives in it."
Han Yi nodded and said, "I'll listen to you. Let either Aunt's family or Uncle Yao's family live in that house. I don't think Aunt's family will need that house, but it would be perfect for Uncle Yao's family since they have a lot of people."
The two of them picked all the ripe watermelons and cantaloupes in the backyard, along with some vegetables, and then picked some ripe peaches in the front yard.
Du Yuhan packed a lot of things and finally filled Han Yixian's car to the brim before stopping.
She entrusted her home to her adoptive parents for a few days and then got into Han Yixian's car to return to the city.
Yu Huiru was very happy to see her daughter return, and she was still with Han Yixian.
After unloading the things she had brought home, Du Yuhan said to her mother, "Mom, there's fruit in the basket, all from the fruit trees in the yard. You and the children can eat as much as you like. Please pack up any other food. I still need to go with Brother Han to deliver some things to other people's homes. Don't wait for me for dinner tonight."
Knowing that Du Yuhan was with Han Yixian, Yu Huiru wasn't worried and said, "You two go ahead and do your work. Come back early tonight."
Han Yixian said, "I'll bring Yuhan back as soon as we're done. Don't worry, Auntie."
The two went back to Han Yixian's house first. After unloading the things that Du Yuhan had brought, Han Yixian said, "Yuhan, come inside and have some water and rest for a while. You can also take a tour of my place."
Du Yuhan looked around and said, "Not bad, it's perfect for you and Liu Gang. You've kept it quite clean."
Han Yixian said, "When we were together in Luancheng, we got used to a clean environment, so this place is kept very clean. In the future, I will prepare a larger house, which will be built like your house in the countryside. After we get married, we will live in the new house, and this place will be left to Liu Gang."
Du Yuhan rolled her eyes at Han Yixian, who was daydreaming about a bright future, and said, "You're dreaming. Who wants to marry you?"
Han Yixian smiled and took Du Yuhan's hand, saying, "Yuhan, I will make you marry me willingly. I will make you happy. I know what happened before made you afraid of marriage."
But Yuhan, I want to tell you, I won't make the same mistake again. I will show you that marriage is far happier than not being married.
Du Yuhan said, "Brother Han, I am indeed apprehensive about married life. Because marriage involves two families, and there are too many things to face."
Han Yixian said, "Yuhan, now I'm all alone at home. You don't need to face anyone else anymore; you only need to face me. Don't be afraid, okay? You can't let some uncertainties stop you from moving forward."
Your parents no longer oppose us, and happiness is right before our eyes. Why can't we overcome our mental barriers and seize it?
Du Yuhan looked up at Han Yixian uncertainly and asked, "Brother Han, can we really be happy?"
Han Yixian said with a firm look in his eyes, "Yuhan, believe me, we will be happy. I know you can't accept marrying me right now, so let's go back to being engaged and get married when you feel ready. I respect your opinion in everything."
Du Yuhan nodded and said, "Yes, let's give it a try."
Upon hearing this, Han Yixian happily picked up Du Yuhan and spun her around several times. "Thank you, Yuhan, thank you for accepting me again."
