"Okay, okay!" Fang Yi said with a smile, and then called to her room, "Old man, come out and serve the dishes."
"Here I come!" Jian Zhongyi said as he ran out of the room.
My grandma and grandpa have a really good relationship. My grandpa is very quiet every day and rarely speaks, but he obeys whatever my grandma says unconditionally.
The three of them brought everything into the room. Su Ruoli added coal balls to the stove and put the pot on it. Soon the pot began to gurgle.
The three of them sat around the stove, each holding a bowl. Su Ruoli put the dishes into the pot while telling Fang Yi and Jian Zhongyi how to eat them.
The three of them ate heartily, and the air was filled with the overbearing aroma of hot pot.
After eating and drinking, Su Ruoli helped clean up the room and then returned to her room.
The next morning, after breakfast, Su Ruoli took the book she had translated to the library.
The library staff came forward as soon as they saw Su Ruoli. "Ruoli, you're here. Have you finished translating the book?"
"I'm done. Let me check you." Su Ruoli took out a book from her small bag and handed it to the staff member.
"Ruoli, I can't check this book. It's too difficult. I need to give it to someone else to check together, so it may take some time before I can give you the royalties." said the staff member.
"Okay, is there anything else you want to translate?" Su Ruoli asked.
"Yes, wait for you!" After saying that, the staff member left.
After a while, the staff came out holding a thick book.
"There's no rush for this one. Just send it to me when you finish translating it."
"It's so thick." Su Ruoli took the book and flipped through it. "Then wait until I finish translating it, then come back to collect the royalties for the previous book!"
"Looking forward to your good news." said the staff.
After leaving the library, Su Ruoli found an empty corner, put the books into her space, took out some fruit from the space, and rode her bicycle to Lu's house.
I haven't been there for a month. It seems that she is an incompetent daughter-in-law.
When Su Ruoli arrived at the Lu family, she found that only Mrs. Lu was at home.
"Grandma, I'm here to see you." Su Ruoli put down the fruit in her hand and walked forward to hold Mrs. Lu's arm.
"Oh, Ruoli is back, come and sit down." Old Mrs. Lu pulled Su Ruoli to sit down with a smile on her face.
Su Ruoli chatted with Old Mrs. Lu for a while and asked about the Lu family's recent situation.
She felt relieved to know that everyone was safe.
Near noon, Su Ruoli offered to cook for Old Lady Lu. She walked into the kitchen and bustled about skillfully.
After a while, a sumptuous meal was placed on the table.
At this time, Qiao Yunrong also came back. Seeing Su Ruoli there, he was also a little surprised, "Ruoli is back."
"Mom! I made lunch, come and eat!" Su Ruoli said politely.
"Okay, I'll come right after I wash my hands." Qiao Yunrong said as he went to wash his hands.
The three of them sat at the dining table. Mrs. Lu took a bite and praised it highly, "Ruoli's cooking skills are much better than those in state-owned restaurants."
"If it tastes good, eat more." Su Ruoli smiled and picked up some dishes for Qiao Yunrong and Grandma Lu, then started eating herself.
After lunch, Su Ruoli stayed with Grandma Lu and Qiao Yunrong for a while, then got up and said goodbye.
She hadn't been back to Li'an Courtyard for a week, so she had to go back and check on things and tidy up.
When she returned to Li'an Courtyard, there was dust everywhere. After a busy day, Su Ruoli was exhausted.
Too tired, Su Ruoli entered the space, soaked in the bathtub, and fell asleep unknowingly.
I don’t know how long I slept, but when I woke up, it was already dark outside.
Su Ruoli came out of the space, feeling refreshed. She made a simple dinner and after eating, she sat on a lounge chair in the yard and looked up at the starry sky.
Just then, a breeze blew, bringing with it a familiar scent.
Su Ruoli suddenly opened her eyes and looked towards the door. A figure slowly approached. It was Lu Chen...
Su Ruoli ran and jumped onto Lu Chen, "You're back, I missed you so much!"
Lu Chen reached out and hugged Su Ruoli, fearing that Su Ruoli would fall, "I'm back!"
Lu Chen carried Su Ruoli into the house, and the two sat on the sofa and chatted.
Su Ruoli shared her work experience in the library and the books she translated.
Lu Chen listened carefully and interjected from time to time.
Su Ruoli suddenly looked up and asked, "Are we going back to the army later?"
Lu Chen nodded and said, "I just came back temporarily to take a look. I have to rush back to the army early tomorrow morning." Su Ruoli was a little disappointed, but she still understood Lu Chen's work.
"It's okay. I'm already very happy that you're back." Su Ruoli leaned on Lu Chen's shoulder. "I don't know when we'll meet next time."
Lu Chen held Su Ruoli's hand and said, "It will be soon. I have applied for a family housing complex and am currently working on furniture. We can be together once it's ready."
"But grandma and the others are here. If I leave, there will be no one to take care of them," said Su Ruoli.
"Then we can bring grandma and the others over to live with us. There are two bedrooms in the family compound, which is enough for them." Lu Chen said.
"Let's talk about it later. I'm afraid grandma won't go with us." Su Ruoli said.
"Okay, then let's enter the space?" Lu Chen suggested.
The two of them appeared in the space in a flash. "The durian I planted is ready to eat. Do you want to try it?" Su Ruoli asked.
"Durian? What is that?" Lu Chen asked.
Su Ruoli brought Lu Chen to the place where durians were grown, pointed at the fruits on the tree and said, "This is durian. It smells bad, but tastes good."
Su Ruoli said as she picked a durian with her mind and Lu Chen held it in his hands.
The two returned to the mat and Su Ruoli began to peel the durian.
"Xiao Li'er, is this thing really edible?" Lu Chen smelled it, his face full of disbelief.
"It's delicious." Su Ruoli took out a piece of fruit pulp and handed it to Lu Chen, "Try it!"
Lu Chen took a bite of the durian with some doubt and was immediately amazed by its unique taste.
Although the smell is a bit strange, the taste is sweet and rich.
"How is it? Delicious, right?" Su Ruoli said with a proud smile.
Lu Chen nodded, his lips curled up, "Yeah, not bad. But this thing looks really weird."
Su Ruoli laughed heartily, "Many people can't accept the taste of durian at first, but you'll get used to it once you get used to it."
"I have also planted a lot of fruit trees. I will bring some back to you when you leave tomorrow." Su Ruoli said.
"Okay, thank you Xiao Lier!" Lu Chen said softly.
Su Ruoli smiled happily and shook her head.
The two of them enjoyed the quiet time while tasting the delicious durian.
At this moment, they seemed to have forgotten all the troubles in the outside world and only focused on each other's company.
