Chapter 10: Little Romance



I took out the bucket, put it under the water pipe, and put the watermelon in.

I took a plate and washed some grapes and went into the house.

"Grandma, I'm back."

It wasn't very hot inside the wooden house, so grandma lay on the bed with the fan on.

Hearing Chen Man come in, he smiled and said, "You're back. Are you hot? Come and enjoy the fan."

Chen Man placed a plate of grapes on the bedside table, peeled one and fed it to my grandma, "It's okay, the room is not hot, come, eat some grapes, grandma, ah."

Grandma felt a little awkward, but she ate it anyway, chewing and saying, "Don't feed me, eat it yourself. If I want to eat, I can just take it myself."

Chen Man smiled and said, "Then you can eat it yourself. I'll go pack up the things I just bought."

Put things in order.

I cleaned the refrigerator several times and put meat, vegetables and fruits in it.

After packing up her things, Chen Man sat down beside her grandmother's bed to rest. Seeing her grandmother lying in bed all day, staring at the wall every time, she must be very uncomfortable.

Chen Man took out her cell phone and looked for wheelchairs online.

After looking for a long time, I finally chose one and was about to place an order, only to remember that I hadn't asked Xu Junyang for his address.

She sent him a text message: Xu Junyang, this is Chen Man. Can you send me the delivery address for online shopping here?

send.

A minute passed with no reply, but a friend request popped up on WeChat.

Xu Junyang

I am Xu Junyang

Chen Man's heart skipped a beat and she quickly clicked "pass".

She glanced at her grandmother and found herself peeling grapes. Chen Mancai then continued to look at her phone.

Chen Man clicked on the dialog box and saw that the other party was typing. The next moment, a message came.

It is the delivery address.

Xiaolangman: Thank you.

Xu Junyang: Yes

Chen Man looked at the word and chuckled.

I quietly clicked on his profile picture, and saw a man's hand wearing a watch, holding a black dog's head.

That watch was the one Chen Man saw on Xu Junyang's wrist, and judging by the color of its fur, that dog should be the one she saw yesterday evening.

Chen Man exited and clicked on her own profile picture. It was a mood photo of herself - a sea view photo with her hair messy from the wind. She had a sweet smile in the photo.

I opened his circle of friends and it was empty.

"You young people, holding a cell phone, laughing and crying at the same time, do you know what you spend your days doing? Is it funny?" Grandma suddenly spoke.

Chen Man felt embarrassed, as if she had been caught. She looked up at her and quickly changed the subject with a smile. "Grandma, I want to renovate the bathroom at home. It's not very convenient to use now. Is that okay?"

Grandma was stunned for a moment, then she remembered the difference between the countryside and the city. She couldn't bear to see such a delicate little girl groping in the dark to go to the toilet in that dirty and smelly toilet.

"Of course you can. All I need now is a place to sleep. You can do whatever you want. I know you and your mother are both very clean. I haven't developed good habits since I was a child. You won't be used to a messy house."

"Grandma, don't talk about yourself like that. I know that in your generation, everyone was busy trying to make ends meet, so who had the time to care about these things? These are just small matters. I'll be responsible for the hygiene of the house from now on."

"Of course. You can do whatever you want with the house, the garden in front, and the land behind. I don't care about it anymore. Oh, and the land next to the bamboo forest is also mine."

"Grandma, our land is so wide!"

"It's wide, but it wasn't good in the past. Others were given fertile fields and fertile soil, but we were given tiny corners like these by the house, where we couldn't even get enough to eat. But now it seems pretty good, as it's close."

"It's really good now. We don't have to rely on farming to make a living. Then, grandma, I want to repair the back. Who in the village should I ask for help? I'll pay the workers."

"There are several people in the village who can repair houses. Many houses in the village are now repaired by them. You can ask Junyang's grandmother to help you find someone."

"Okay. I'll go see her tonight. I also bought her a carton of milk, a box of canned goods, and some watermelon. I bought some for you, too."

Grandma looked very satisfied. "I should thank her for taking such good care of me. Her family is very kind-hearted. They deserve to be so rich. It's really the blessing of the Buddha."

Chen Man was curious, "What does his family do? They look really rich."

"I don't know about that. I heard he works in many industries and is incredibly wealthy. He could spend his entire life!"

Chen Man chuckled and stopped caring, "Grandma, why don't you watch TV? I'll play it for you."

There is a TV in grandma's room.

"I can't put it out. It's broken."

Chen Man: "Then wait for me, I'll go upstairs and get the tablet for you."

Taking the tablet down, Chen Man connected to the best nearby Wi-Fi network, using the password of eight eights, and it worked. It should be Xu Junyang's house. Chen Man's house was quite far from the residents in front, and there were no houses behind it.

In the evening, Chen Man cooked rice with the rice cooker she had just bought, and made stir-fried pork with green peppers, cucumber soup and braised eggplant.

After dinner, the sun wasn't as strong and the temperature dropped.

Chen Man arrived at Xu Junyang's house carrying two boxes of things. She was too embarrassed to go in directly, so she called out at the door, "Grandma, Grandma?"

When Junyang's grandmother heard the voice, she hurried out. When she saw it was Chen Man, a smile appeared on her face.

"Chen Man, come in and sit down. From now on, just come in. There's no such thing as too many things in the countryside. Just order whatever you want."

Chen Man smiled sweetly, "Grandma, when I was shopping today, I bought a box of milk and canned food for you and me. I'll bring it to you."
