Chapter 62: Thrilling (VI)
When Ye Yao got home, he found that there was no one in the house and he was greatly relieved.
I quickly went back to the house, changed my clothes, and walked to the big pot. Sure enough, there was food left in the pot.
Since I couldn't move my right hand, I had to find a spoon and eat with my left hand.
Not long after dinner, Zhang Qiufeng came back.
"Well, I wiped it clean."
Ye Yao answered her worried question, but did not tell her that he used to clean toilets.
"That's good. My Yaoyao has really grown up and can even work and earn money."
Zhang Qiufeng was so happy that her eyes turned red, and she didn't notice anything unusual about Ye Yao.
Ye Yao inadvertently avoided her sight, and waited until she had almost finished speaking before speaking, "Mom, I'm a little tired and want to sleep for a while."
Her arms were burning and painful, but she couldn't show it. She could hardly bear it any longer.
"Okay, do you want to take a shower before going to bed? I'll go boil some water."
After all, I had been working for half a day and the weather was hot.
"No, I just washed it myself."
Ye Yao quickly refused. If he took off his clothes now, he would not be able to hide it.
After hearing what she said, Zhang Qiufeng didn't think much about it and just let her go back to her room to sleep.
"Mom, Aunt Wang asked you to help her for a few days?"
Before going back to the house, Ye Yao asked in a tense voice.
"She said it would take at least three or four days. What's wrong? If you feel tired, I'll go over tomorrow."
Ye Yao wailed in his heart, but said calmly, "I'm not tired."
…
In the evening, when Li Guoxiong saw the Dongpo pork on the table, he knew who had been there.
"Why didn't Xiaoying stay for dinner?"
"I kept her, but the girl put down the incubator and left."
Shen Yun served rice to the father and son, and then deliberately moved the Dongpo pork in front of Li Cheng.
"Xiaoying really cares about you. She knows you like this, so she sends it to you almost every once in a while."
The Li family and the Huang family have always had a good relationship, and Li Cheng and Huang Ying grew up together. Shen Yun had even thought about whether the two of them could be together, but after so many years, she didn't seem to notice that Li Cheng had such a strong liking for Huang Ying, so she gave up the idea.
But Huang Ying, on the other hand, has always cared about him.
"I just said it casually."
Li Cheng explained expressionlessly.
That was three years ago. He went to Huang's house for dinner. Huang's mother asked him if he liked the food she cooked. Out of politeness, he could only answer that he liked it.
“This is also a kind gesture from others.”
Shen Yun smiled, and the three of them began to eat.
"Why are there red eggs?"
Li Guoxiong looked at the cooked red eggs in the winnowing basket and couldn't help but ask.
Generally, when there is a happy event in the compound, people would specially cook eggs, then dye them red and give them to people to eat, for the sake of happiness and good luck.
"Wang Lin's daughter-in-law gave birth to a boy in the hospital today. She was so happy that she went door to door to deliver the baby this afternoon."
"That's really a happy event. You should take some time to go and have a look."
Li Guoxiong reminded her that she was the one who had always been in charge of all the interpersonal relationships in the compound.
"Wang Lin's family?"
Li Cheng suddenly spoke up to confirm.
"Yeah. What's wrong?"
Shen Yun looked at him in confusion, but he never asked about such things.
Li Cheng shook his head and said, "It's okay." Then he continued eating.
So what the girl said, that she was working for Aunt Wang, seems to be true.
