Chapter 695 Extra - Memories Can Be Preserved Permanently
Chen Ci's gaze swept over the four dishes and one soup: "As long as it's edible, it's fine. Besides, it looks quite delicious."
Fang Tong smiled, and the two of them carried the dishes to the corridor.
Uncle Ren muttered to himself, "Seafood dumpling soup, hot and sour shredded potatoes, cucumber salad... these are all my favorites. Boiled vegetables are also good, and this eggplant..."
"I'm not very good at cooking eggplant, so I just stir-fried it," Fang Tong said.
Uncle Ren picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of eggplant: "Delicious, just the original flavor."
Fang Tong finally felt relieved and sat down to eat.
It has to be said that Fang Tong doesn't really have much talent for cooking; the taste of each dish is not amazing, and they are just ordinary home-style dishes.
Uncle Ren seemed to be enjoying his meal: "Aci, you brought Fang Tong along, not just so you could be lazy and not cook, right?"
Chen Ci laughed and joked, "My little tricks really couldn't escape the teacher's sharp eyes."
Uncle Ren laughed heartily.
Fang Tong said a little embarrassedly, "The lady who delivered the vegetables just now said she'd be delivering fish and chicken tonight, but I'm not very good at that..."
"It's alright, the task this afternoon isn't heavy, I'll do it then," Chen Ci said considerately.
Fang Tong nodded: "Okay."
The two locked eyes briefly, and Fang Tong saw a deep emotion in his dark eyes before quickly looking away.
"Oh, right..." she hurriedly started a new topic: "The aunt said that the Mid-Autumn Festival in the village is very lively, and she invited us to celebrate the festival with them."
While drinking his noodle soup, Uncle Ren said, "Yes, the Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner. You should go back after the Mid-Autumn Festival. By then, the results of the medicine should be available."
Chen Ci then looked at Fang Tong: "Do you want to spend the festival here?"
"I'm fine with anything, it depends on what you and Uncle Ren decide."
"Yes," Chen Ci said, "My professor and I have started researching targeted drugs, and we should have results within a week. Of course, if you're in a hurry to leave, you can leave earlier, and my professor will give me feedback on the details..."
“I’m not in a hurry,” Fang Tong expressed her opinion. “I completely respect your arrangements. Anyway, I’m on vacation right now.”
Chen Ci nodded: "That's good. Then we'll wait for the results before going back."
Uncle Ren was very happy: "It's been a long time since anyone has celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival with me... There's a market in town on Friday, you guys go and buy some fireworks and food, and then you can celebrate with the villagers."
“Okay.” Chen Ci agreed: “You just make the list, and Fang Tong and I will buy everything and bring it back.”
...
After lunch, Chen Ci and Fang Tong went to the kitchen to pack up their things.
"Don't we have to go to the lab this afternoon? Why don't you go and rest first?" Fang Tong suggested.
"No need." Chen Ci rolled up his sleeves and prepared to wash the dishes. "I still have plenty of energy, and besides, I need to digest after a meal."
Fang Tong didn't try to persuade them any further, and the two stood by the sink and began washing the dishes in perfect harmony.
Uncle Ren leaned back on the chair under the eaves, drinking tea while watching the two people standing side by side in the kitchen.
At that moment, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart, but then he felt relieved.
Those beautiful memories from the past are now flashing through my mind with unparalleled clarity, and that too is a kind of happiness.
Even if the person is not by your side.
Memories, however, can last forever.
Not long after, Abao and Atian strolled back from outside the yard. Uncle Ren waved to the two little devils, then turned and went back into the room to get dog food and cat food.
Sunlight streams into the courtyard, the autumn air is crisp and clear, and the warm and leisurely days are something to look forward to.
