Chapter 24: Make a living first, then find love
Wen Ran looked at his nervous expression and chuckled, "I see, I see. So, that's what you wanted to say when you were hesitating in the cornfield this afternoon?"
"Well," Xiao Chenye scratched his head, "that's it."
"Okay." Wen Ran wasn't that angry to begin with. Now that the misunderstanding was resolved, she felt relieved and smiled more. "If you must apologize for this, then I forgive you."
"real?"
Xiao Chenye's eyes lit up, "You're not angry with me anymore?"
Regarding this sentence, Wen Ran felt that he still needed to quibble, "I was not angry with you in the first place, okay!"
"Yeah, yeah, not angry, not angry!"
My mother said that as long as the matter is not wrong, it’s okay to give in to a little bit of argument.
He took out a small hard box from his pocket and stuffed it into Wen Ran's hand, "Here, this is a thank-you gift from my niece.
I can't pay you back for the milk powder for a while, but I'll give it to you when I get it."
"It's okay," Wen Ran wanted to say something, but Xiao Chenye took a step back, "It's getting late, I won't delay your rest, go to bed first."
Having said that, he turned and ran away.
There was a hint of urgency in the messy steps.
It feels like there is a dog chasing me from behind.
Wen Ran: “…”
She blinked blankly, holding the small iron box in her hand, looking unusually dazed.
No, she hasn't finished talking yet!
After returning to the room, Wen Ran closed the door.

next door.
The old couple lying on the window looked at each other and smiled.
Father Xiao was excited, "This kid is great! He has the same vigor and vigor as I did when I was young. Great, great, he met the girl he liked, and he was not ambiguous at all."
Mother Xiao snorted, "No matter how straightforward you are, you still have to be good-looking! You know, Chen Ye looks a bit like you, but he looks exactly like me!"
"You're right!"
This earnest look almost choked Xiao's mother to death. She raised her hand and gave Xiao's father a hug, then went to sleep.
Father Xiao: “?”
No, why was he beaten again? Did he say something wrong?
It shouldn't be like this!
Xiao's mother is now only worried about her third child, who is a very stubborn person.
If possible, she really wanted to pick a good wife for him and tie him up in the bridal chamber!
Alas~
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. Xiao's mother raised her foot and kicked again. It was all because of this old man. None of his sons were easy to deal with.
Father Xiao: “…”
Never mind. It doesn’t hurt. Just think of it as an itch.
On the other side, Wen Ran had already lit the candle. Under the dim, swaying candlelight, she discovered that the tin box contained vanishing cream.
No, she didn't want this either.
I got close and smelled it, it smells quite fragrant.
She gently dipped a little bit with her fingers and applied it on the back of her hand. It was indeed very moisturizing.
Wen Ran had a smile on her face that she wasn't even aware of. Although the little misunderstanding that had caused her a slight heart attack during the day had been explained away, she had also put the issue of finding a house on the agenda.
The next morning, Wen Ran washed up and applied some vanishing cream. She did not forget to talk to Xiao's mother, "Aunt."
Xiao's mother was cooking. "What's wrong?"
"Is there any unoccupied house near us?"
Hearing this, Xiao's mother paused stirring the porridge. She looked calm on the outside, but she was extremely panicked on the inside.
No, what happened to that damn boy?
She thought she had coaxed the person into submission.
"Ah, the house." Xiao's mother swallowed her saliva and asked tentatively, "Are you planning to move out?"
"Well," Wen Ran said with a straight face, "I feel bad for always bothering you!"
Mother Xiao said anxiously, "What's there to feel bad about? I love you so much. You can talk to me at home. You can also chat with my second daughter when you go in. I am happy just to see you."
"Aunt," Wen Ran smiled, "Even if I move out, I'll visit often in the future, and I won't live far away.
The distance between the end of the village is only a short one. It only takes three to five minutes to walk there and back."
Xiao's mother: "...Even a fast runner can't walk back and forth in three to five minutes."
Wen Ran chuckled, "I mean very close."
Xiao's mother explained earnestly, "Child, do you feel hurt by what Chen Ye said yesterday? Auntie promises you.
Tatsuno really didn't mean anything else, he was just rough and worried about you, but he was dumb and couldn't speak. "
"I know!" Wen Ran was not stupid. She could see the gap between Xiao Chenye's attitude towards her and others.
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the day of the Silly Roe Deer Brigade.
When he was resting on the way, if someone approached him, he would just look vigilant and warn others not to try to steal his chicken, but he would end up grabbing a chicken leg for himself.
Then there is the vanishing cream from last night...
Wen Ran took a deep breath and had to admit that he was more concerned about Xiao Chenye than usual, someone he had only known for a few days.
The main thing is that this old man has a disturbing face and body, and her resistance is average. Is she wrong?
No.
So, the next thing to do is to let nature take its course.
This world is as real as it can be to the original owner, but it is different to her.
As she had just arrived, she was afraid that she would have that "suspension bridge effect" on Xiao Chenye.
It’s better to wait until she settles down her life before thinking about other things.
Make a living first, then love.
Thinking of this, Wen Ran became more determined.
Seriously, "I thought about it and decided it would be better to move out. Auntie, I'll leave this matter to you!"
She smiled and said, "If you can't bear to leave me, then help me find a place closer to here so that we can visit each other in the future!"
Well, now that things have come to this, Xiao's mother has nothing more to say.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you..."
After eating and drinking, Bao Wenxuan happily came to work with Wen Ran.
Halfway through the journey, the team leader stopped him and said, "Hey! You two are here just in time. Come on, come on, Xiao Wen, the educated youth, come here."
Wen Ran: “?”
She was curious, "What's wrong?"
The captain stuffed a pen and paper into Wen Ran's hand and said, "Don't pick the corn anymore. Go help with the statistics."
Wen Ran: “?” She was even more confused.
"What do you mean?"
The captain was very busy, as if his butt was on fire. "For details, go ask Xiao Chenye. You are here to help him today. You should do whatever he asks you to do."
After saying that, he ran away in a hurry, leaving Bao Wenxuan and Wen Ran looking at each other in confusion.
Bao Wenxuan looked at Wen Ran with envy, "Well, if you don't want to get off the ground, let's change the hats?"
Oh, she has been coveting this hat for a long time.
Wen Ran: “…Okay.”
He put on his hat, held a pen and paper, and trotted to the edge of the field.
Xiao Chenye's truck was parked there.
"Coming?"
Seeing Wen Ran, Xiao Chenye felt very comfortable and handed over a small stool, "Sit down and rest for a while."
"Why did I do this today?"
Xiao Chenye (mumbling): Breaking corn is too tiring, let me do it instead, it’s more relaxed.
Busy serving tea and water.
Wen Ran: ...Well, I won without doing anything.
Kiss, Kiss, it's a little late today, but I'm still asking for votes and good reviews, love you all!!!
