There were several flower beds elsewhere in the institute, and Ye Shuning thought she could use them to grow vegetables or crops. She could use any available land. Although the land was small, she could still grow a lot.
Most other places have hardened floors or are paved with tiles or cement, which is not easy to deal with, so we can only wait and see later.
Food was more important now, so the flowers and plants had to give way. But she had to first try to see if the land in the institute could grow anything.
Ye Shuning felt very hungry, and the bowl of porridge she had just drunk was of no use at all.
She arrived at the institute's cafeteria. Although there was no ready-made cooked food, she found that there were actually quite a few ingredients. In addition to various grains, dry goods, eggs, vegetables, etc., the refrigerators and freezers were also full of various meats, fish and shrimps.
These were prepared by the cafeteria for the staff of the institute, but now they have become her food reserves. These are enough for her to eat for a while.
There was still electricity in the institute, and the refrigerator and freezer were still functioning normally, and the food was well preserved. Her stomach growled even more happily when she saw the food.
With the support of the research institute, she was no longer afraid to leave Yan Jingwen, and all the anxieties she had when she first arrived in a strange world were gone.
She tried to turn on the gas stove and found that it worked. It was so good that she immediately steamed a bowl of egg custard for herself.
The egg custard with sesame oil was absolutely delicious. She felt much better after eating a bowl of hot egg custard.
Her health is just getting better, but her spleen and stomach are weak, so it would be better for her to eat less at first.
She had been living in the institute's dormitory apartment building since the end of her previous life. She didn't know if her home, which was some distance away from the institute, was still there. She also didn't know if the thick fog around her would ever dissipate.
She returned to her dorm and looked in the mirror. The girl's face was gaunt, her eyes were large, her hair was dry and yellow, and she had not a pound of flesh on her body. She was extremely thin. Thinking about it, it made sense that the original owner had been mistreated by her uncle's family and often went hungry, so it was understandable that she was so thin.
However, the original owner's face was very similar to hers, just a little darker, with worse skin and thin cheeks. Overall, she was still very beautiful. Otherwise, the original owner wouldn't have been so arrogant.
Now the most attractive thing about the person in the mirror is the pair of big, watery, dark eyes that flash with wisdom from time to time.
If she took good care of herself, she would be even more beautiful in the future, and perhaps even regain her appearance as in her previous life. She was known as the Beauty Doctor, so naturally she had a good appearance.
Ye Shuning was afraid that someone would suddenly come into the room, so she quickly left the institute and continued to lie on the kang.
She was very weak and needed to rest. She had just taken two cold medicine pills in the dormitory and felt a little sleepy. She lay down under the quilt and fell asleep again.
Yan Jingwen left Ye Shuning's residence and returned to the office.
Seeing Yan Jingwen coming back, Yan's mother, Li Shuxian, asked, "How was it? What did Ye Shuning say after you talked to her?"
Yan Jingwen put down his lunch box and said, "She agreed to break off the engagement with me and won't bother me anymore. She also said she'll leave in a few days when she feels better."
Li Shuxian heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, then snorted and said, "She's sensible, otherwise I'd have plenty of ways to deal with her. She's only bullying you because you're easy to talk to."
Yan Jingwen's attitude had changed a lot after his conversation with Ye Shuning. He said, "Mom, Ye Shuning is desperate and is trying all kinds of treatment. She has no other choice. The most hateful ones should be her uncle's family. But now she has thought it through and is no longer pestering me. There is no need for you to embarrass her."
I'm very busy at work and don't have time to accompany you. My family can't leave you, so you should go back tomorrow."
Li Shuxian immediately said one day: "That won't work. What if Ye Shuning regrets it again?"
Yan Jingwen shook his head and said, "I don't think she'll go back on her word. She explained everything to me very clearly. You can go back without worry. I'll have someone take you to the county in a moment."
Yan Jingwen had to persuade his mother to leave.
After seeing his mother off, Yan Jingwen came to Ye Shuning again. After all, Ye Shuning was still sick, so he had to take care of her more.
Yan Jingwen quietly entered the room and saw Ye Shuning sleeping so quietly, her breathing was almost inaudible. With her eyes closed, Ye Shuning gave people a quiet feeling. Her long eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyelids, making people want to touch her.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Yan Jingwen felt that he was a little crazy and quickly drove the thought out of his mind.
Ye Shuning was dreaming while she was sleeping. She dreamed that her father hurried back to her home in Yunzhou City and called her name in the empty house. His voice was trembling and full of fear.
She saw her father looking for her everywhere, calling her name in sadness and despair.
Ye Shuning wanted to tell her father that she was still alive and not dead.
Just as Yan Jingwen was about to turn around and leave, he heard Ye Shuning, who was in a deep sleep, mumbling and calling "Dad" repeatedly.
He saw tears flowing from the corners of Ye Shuning's eyes, and the tears kept flowing. Ye Shuning's voice of calling "Dad" was so sad that Yan Jingwen felt uncomfortable, as if his heart was being gripped by a hand.
He knew that Ye Shuning's father was a soldier who had died. Her mother had also passed away, leaving her an orphan without a father or a mother. She had her uncle, but his family bullied and schemed against her like wolves and tigers.
Yan Jingwen suddenly stopped blaming Ye Shuning for plotting against him. Otherwise, Ye Shuning would have to marry that old disabled man.
She was only seventeen years old, still a young girl. It was understandable that she would seek help from all directions when she had no one to rely on and didn't know how to fight the disease.
What's more, she is a martyr's family member and a descendant of a soldier like him, so he should help her.
Ye Shuning’s dream now must be a very sad dream, otherwise she would not cry so sadly in her dream.
Yan Jingwen couldn't bear to see Ye Shuning continue to be immersed in her sad dream, so he stepped forward and gently woke Ye Shuning up.
Ye Shuning was awakened from her dream. When she opened her eyes, she saw Yan Jingwen sitting on the kang.
The sun was already setting, and the light in the room was not bad. Yan Jingwen saw that Ye Shuning was still a little dazed and hazy after opening her eyes. However, her eyes, soaked with tears, were particularly bright, and her dark pupils seemed to be able to draw people in.
Yan Jingwen looked away and said, "Ye Shuning, you just had a nightmare, so I had to wake you up. Dinner will be served soon, so wake up first. You slept too much during the day, so you won't be able to sleep at night."
Ye Shuning came to her senses from her daze and slowly sat up. "Thank you for waking me up. I was indeed dreaming. But it can't be called a nightmare. I dreamed of my father. He was looking for me everywhere."
