Chapter 100 “Raven” is not a raven?
After all, they had experienced a battle together, and everyone's attitude towards Zhu Jiuyin had softened.
To express her gratitude, Sheng Ran decided to invite Zhu Jiuyin to her home for a meal.
She hadn't cooked for a long time, and the husbands were actually a little greedy.
But considering Sheng Ran's physical condition, no one wanted to see her work any harder.
"We'll do it. My wife, please go back to your room and rest."
That being said, this proposal is actually not very realistic.
——Sheng Ran’s room had been destroyed beyond recognition and she couldn’t sleep at all.
Other people’s beds were uncomfortable, and there was no need to rest.
Everyone quickly decided to divide the work and cooperate. Those who could cook went to the kitchen to prepare meals, while Raven and Zhu Jiuyin, who knew nothing about cooking, hurried to repair Sheng Ran's room.
The three people in the kitchen group are almost a fixed team. Sheng Ran's cooking skills were learned the most from Pei Xiaoxing, who has always been the head chef in the family.
Ling Rui and Huai Jun were responsible for helping him, and they worked together very well.
Soon the sounds of chopping wood and burning oil were heard, as well as Ling Rui's screams from being burned by sparks. The atmosphere was quite lively.
Everything here was proceeding in an orderly manner, but Raven and Zhu Jiuyin were not getting along well.
Just as Zhu Jiuyin was about to get close to Sheng Ran, he saw Raven turn around and walk towards the broken window frame. He picked up a stone knife from the corner of the wall as a tool and began to remove the broken wood chips with an expressionless face.
"Don't be lazy, get to work."
Zhu Jiuyin paused and could only change direction and follow.
The tip of his tail brushed the back of Sheng Ran's hand intentionally or unintentionally, and he stared at her without blinking and smiled: "Don't worry, I will work hard with him."
Sheng Ran looked at the two of them deeply, why didn't she believe it?
She originally wanted to help with cooking, but she was really worried about this place.
You know, Raven and Zhu Jiuyin had a fierce fight when they first met.
At that time, it was Sheng Ran who pulled Pei Xiaoxing to mediate and separated the two people.
Sheng Ran stood by with a worried look on her face, not daring to blink, for fear that the two of them might accidentally have a small conflict and start fighting each other the next second.
Zhu Jiuyin had indeed slept for a long time and was out of touch with the surrounding environment.
But that doesn't mean he can't read facial expressions at all.
Seeing Sheng Ran's nervous look, Zhu Jiuyin knew what she was worried about.
A slight feeling of dissatisfaction arose in his heart. How could Zhu Jiuyin be so narrow-minded?
He wanted to prove to Sheng Ran that he could get along well with these beastly husbands and that he could integrate into this family.
——Maybe Sheng Ran would be willing to marry him!
When he thought of this, Zhu Jiuyin became a little excited.
Even the ravens look much more pleasing to the eye.
"Blackbird, let's cooperate." Zhu Jiuyin took the initiative to discuss with Raven.
When Sheng Ran heard this name, her eyes went dark and she almost fainted from fright.
What kind of nickname did Zhu Jiuyin give him? He was afraid that Raven wouldn't beat him, right?
Her heart was tense, but fortunately Raven didn't say anything, he just raised his eyes slightly.
Zhu Jiuyin handed him a new wooden board and a few small animal bones to fix it. "I'll help you pass the things and you can do the repairs, okay?"
The raven ignored him and turned away again.
He just couldn't understand why two people had to split up the process when one person could complete it. Wouldn't that reduce efficiency?
Without answering Zhu Jiuyin, he took out an animal bone from the tool basket, held it in his mouth, and hit it with the stone hammer in his hand, "knock knock", quickly and accurately.
Zhu Jiuyin was not embarrassed that his suggestion was ignored.
Sheng Ran is still around, so he has to continue to perform well.
Zhu Jiuyin picked up another wooden stick and pointed it at the window frame. "Do you think it's okay to nail it like this? I think it's a little crooked. You have good eyesight, can you help me take a look?"
The raven finally raised his eyes and glanced at him coldly: "If you are not blind, then see for yourself."
Zhu Jiuyin was completely stunned. He had never seen anyone with such a bad temper.
With a breath stuck in his chest, he slammed the stone hammer twice in a depressed mood, as if to express his anger.
The raven would not pay any attention.
He disdains to put on airs and perform in front of his master.
In fact, Raven didn't feel that he had to establish any friendly relations with these people.
He only cares about his master. Just like now, his only thought is to repair his master's room as soon as possible so that she can sleep peacefully as soon as possible.
Everything else is too empty.
"If you don't want to work, you can rest." Raven finally said, unable to bear it any longer. "We don't have a precedent of asking guests to work at home. You could have just sat there."
Upon hearing the word "guest", Zhu Jiuyin instantly became unhappy, "Who said I don't want to work!"
He gritted his teeth, and the end of the chapter was instantly shrouded in dark clouds, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was sulking.
His idea of getting close and pretending to be kind was ruined, and Zhu Jiuyin could only start repairing the house honestly.
Sheng Ran's eyelids were twitching, fearing that Raven would anger Zhu Jiuyin away with just a few words, or that Zhu Jiuyin would hit Raven's hand with a hammer.
But what was unexpected was that after working for a while without disturbing each other, the atmosphere between the two of them actually eased a lot.
At first, Raven was busy nailing the wooden board, and sawdust splashed onto Zhu Jiuyin's clothes.
Later, as if realizing this, he deliberately avoided it and his movements became much smaller.
When Zhu Jiuyin noticed this little detail, his heart began to brighten up again. He even blinked brightly at Sheng Ran, as if to say, "Look, how well I handle the relationship."
Sheng Ran couldn't help but curled up the corners of her mouth.
Looking at the two of them nailing the window frame on the left and right, one with flying red hair and the other in dark clothes, although they didn't communicate much, they didn't quarrel anymore. The worry in Sheng Ran's heart gradually dissipated.
After confirming that there would be no conflict between the two, she seemed to be unable to sit still and went to help in the kitchen.
Put all crises behind you for now, deal with tomorrow’s affairs tomorrow, and think about the end of the month at the end of the month!
The most urgent thing is to fill her stomach and let the beastly husbands taste her cooking skills!
"What is my wife going to do?" Zhu Jiuyin couldn't help but ask.
This time, the raven didn't ignore him. Instead, it corrected him word by word, "She is not your wife. Don't slander her master's innocence."
"Then my future wife." Zhu Jiuyin would never let go of the last two words. In his heart, he was already Sheng Ran's. Even if he had no name or status, he would stay by her side for the rest of his life!
"..." Raven was powerless to correct him, "Master is going to cook, you are in for a treat."
As soon as he finished speaking, the aroma of broth wafted from the kitchen. Ling Rui shouted loudly, "It's time to eat! My wife is the one who cooked. Don't let her cooking skills go to waste!"
Zhu Jiuyin's eyes lit up. Food! He hadn't eaten yet!
He himself possesses miraculous blood and can survive normally even without food or water.
As far as he could remember, he had never had a craving for anything.
But at this moment, the aroma of meat reached his nose, making him feel a little hungry.
He patted the raven on the shoulder and said, "Go, Blackbird, let's go eat!"
The raven ignored him but kept up.
Finally, I couldn't help but say, "Don't give me a nickname."
Even Sheng Ran hadn't given him a name yet, but Zhu Jiuyin had already given him a nickname.
Zhu Jiuyin seemed to not understand what he was saying, "Then what should I call you?"
The raven gritted its teeth and said, "I really don't have a name. You can just call me by my species like everyone else."
Zhu Jiuyin paused suddenly, and his serious look attracted the attention of the others, especially Sheng Ran, who thought that the two of them had quarreled over something again and became worried.
Zhu Jiuyin just said——
"But you're not a raven, why should I call you that?"
Everyone on the field was stunned.
The "raven", which has always been considered an ominous sign, is not really a raven?
Realizing that it might be related to his background, Sheng Ran's face turned serious and she walked forward seriously.
