When Gu Yan returned home, Ye Jin had just prepared the meal.
"You're back. Have you eaten? I made your meal."
"Not yet."
Gu Yan was used to eating at home and was reluctant to eat out.
"If you haven't eaten yet, wash your hands and come eat."
Gu Yan obediently went to wash his hands, and his grandmother had already come out with two bowls of rice.
"Come on, come on, let's eat together."
Ever since her granddaughter and future grandson-in-law moved in, the house has been bustling with activity every day, and grandma likes this atmosphere very much.
Everyone was silent while eating, and the meal was finished very quickly. Ye Jin's cooking skills were good, and the ingredients he used were also good, so the food on the table was quickly eaten up.
Gu Yan took the initiative to clean up the dishes, and grandma happily went back to her room to knit.
Ye Jin sat on a chair in the main room with a cup of hot tea. She drank the tea slowly while staring at the beams in a daze.
Ye Wei had already slipped away to her room. She didn't want to stay outside and be a third wheel.
Gu Yan cleaned up the kitchen and followed her example, bringing a cup of tea and sitting next to her.
"What's wrong? You seem to be worried."
"It's not a big deal. I'm just thinking about how to knock down that wall and capture that old lady."
The old lady had a very stubborn temper and seemed adamant that she would not be persuaded by ordinary methods.
"Leave it to me. I'll give you a satisfactory answer within a week."
Gu Yan almost patted his chest to make a promise. He couldn't show his strength in front of Ye Jin, but he had plenty of ways to do it in private.
"No, I want to solve this matter myself, in my own way!"
"That's fine. You can try it yourself first. If you can't figure it out, come back to me."
Gu Yan didn't force her, as he was afraid that if he interfered too much in her life, it would cause her to feel disgusted.
"If I can't figure it out, I'll definitely come find you."
Ye Jin gave him a reassuring look, but Gu Yan was not at all reassured. This girl usually liked to solve everything on her own. If he hadn't been proactive enough, there would be no chance for him to help her.
"By the way, what were you busy with this afternoon?"
The two of them sat there for a long time without any topic to talk about. Ye Jin felt quite embarrassed, so she had to ask casually.
"I wasn't busy at all. I just went to the store I opened to take a look and give some guidance on the work."
"What kind of shop do you run? Is it food-related? This chili sauce here is really good. I wouldn't sell it to ordinary people, but if it's you, I might consider it."
Ye Jin didn't expect that there was a potential customer right next to her. Her eyes lit up when she talked about doing business.
"My store sells hardware, so I can't buy from you."
If I produce some small electrical appliances in my own factory and then sell them in department stores, can it also be considered a hardware store?
Gu Yan thought so in his heart and felt that he was not lying. He straightened his chest and became more righteous.
"So we're in different industries. That's unfortunate, but does your store offer food and lodging? If so, you can give your employees some chili sauce from me, and consider it a bit of a promotion for me."
Ye Jin has a very active mind and thinks about making money every day.
"We don't care about that in our store. They all bring their own food."
"Yeah, if it's in the catering industry, they usually provide meals. I don't know about hardware companies, as I haven't been involved in that either."
What she didn't expect was that Gu Yan, who had been circling around her like a hunter, was actually the owner of a shop. No wonder he was so efficient in his work.
"Your hot sauce is so delicious, it will sell well even without my promotion."
Ye Jin lowered her head and took a sip of water. When she raised her head again, she saw Gu Yan staring at her face with burning eyes.
"Why are you always looking at me? Is there something on my face?"
Ye Jin touched his face to make sure there was nothing wrong, then asked in confusion.
"Nothing, I just thought you looked pretty today."
Ye Jin: “…”
She didn't know how to respond, so she could only lower her head and take another big sip of water.
"Well, it's getting late. I'm going back to my room to sleep."
Ye Jin almost ran away. She returned to her room and quickly locked the door.
She lay in bed for a long time but couldn't fall asleep. After all, it was only a little after 7 o'clock in the evening. She usually went to bed at 9 or 10 o'clock. When she couldn't sleep, she naturally had to check her space.
She no longer grows vegetables in her space, and all she has in her space are medicinal herbs.
The most commonly grown herbs are ginseng, ganoderma lucidum and cordyceps sinensis, as well as some other medicinal herbs.
She picked out some expensive medicinal herbs. Although they required a lot of space and spring water, they could be sold for a lot of money after they were grown.
No matter what, risks and profits coexist. If you want to make more money, you have to pay more.
Ye Jin took a small hoe and casually turned over the soil next to the medicinal herbs.
The black soil is still fertile, and the seedlings of these medicinal herbs are growing well. The only bad thing is that they will not bear fruit without the space spring water.
No matter how well the medicinal herb seedlings grow, if they don't bear fruit, she won't make any money, and her time spent on them will be in vain.
Ye Jin sighed as she looked at the decreasing amount of space spring water. She now drinks 1 to 2 cups every day, and her physical fitness has improved a lot.
Although her grandmother and sister didn't know, she would often secretly add the space spring water to their food and drinking water. Even for Gu Yan, although he was in good health, she still didn't forget his share.
Gu Yan goes up the mountain to hunt and often encounters danger, so naturally the stronger his body is, the better.
She walked around in the space, and when she didn't feel like sleeping, she dug the soil desperately. Her arms were shaking with exhaustion, and she fell asleep as soon as she regained consciousness.
The next morning, Ye Jin was getting ready to make breakfast, but she discovered that her sister had gotten up earlier. The pot was bubbling, and a pot of lean meat porridge was emitting a fragrant aroma.
Ye Wei pulled a small stool and sat in front of the fire. She had rarely burned firewood before, but in order to quickly adapt to life at her grandmother's house, she quickly mastered the skills of burning firewood.
But her little hands accidentally touched her face a few times, and soon there were a few black marks on her face.
Ye Jin brushed her teeth and washed her face, then threw a towel over to her sister.
"Sister!" Ye Wei was startled. When she looked up and saw that it was her sister, she took the towel and wiped her face without thinking.
"Your face is as dirty as a cat, and this part hasn't been wiped clean yet."
Ye Jin took the towel, washed it once, and then carefully wiped her sister again. Only then did she tap her little head with relief.
"Sister, are you clean now?"
Ye Wei blinked her big, wet eyes, relying on her like a little child.
"After washing, you look like a pretty little girl."
