"Master." Goudan walked forward gently and twisted the corner of her quilt.
Zhong Yuxiu opened her eyes and said, "Someone is coming to our house the day after tomorrow. Remember to cook for eight people and make a few more delicious dishes for the guests."
"Okay, Goudan has taken note." Goudan took a step back and said, "Good night, Master."
"Good night."
Goudan went to the laboratory to charge his phone. Zhong Yuxiu couldn't sleep and kept thinking about what happened today. It seemed like a dream. In the near future, she would be upgraded to a married woman. She didn't reject it, but felt safe and secure with someone to rely on.
In her previous lives, no matter where she traveled to, she was always resistant to the idea of marriage. Now, thinking about it, she realized the problem. She did not regard herself as a person from that world. She had seen too many cases of love being misled by heartlessness. Divorce, amicable separation, sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams, and a marriage of mutual respect were not what she wanted.
It seems like they were born for the mission, and lifelong events have become secondary.
Until she met Yan Rushan, it seemed like fate; Yan Rushan gave her a very reliable feeling from the beginning, and he was reliable, and their subsequent interactions were even more so. Now, her rejection of marriage is gone, and she is looking forward to it.
I fell asleep unknowingly while daydreaming and had a good night's dream.
The next day, the sun was already high in the sky.
Zhong Yuxiu got up lazily, rubbing her sleepy eyes; she got out of bed and opened the curtains, and the dazzling sunlight shone into the room. Yuxiu squinted her eyes to adapt to the light before opening them.
Goudan pushed the door open and walked in. "Good morning, Master. Breakfast is ready. You can enjoy it now."
"What delicious food did you make?" His voice was hoarse and lazy.
"Red oil beef noodles, you like it."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded and said, "I'll change my clothes and then go downstairs to eat."
"Okay, master, I'll bring the noodles out for you." Goudan turned and went downstairs.
Today, Zhong Yuxiu is going to meet the Yan family's parents. She specially chose a red woolen coat and bell-bottom pants, with bell-bottom pants and warm autumn trousers inside; the woolen coat is matched with a white cashmere sweater with a middle collar, a red scarf, and black snow boots. This combination is very fashionable in this era.
After going downstairs to wash up, Zhong Yuxiu walked into the dining room. On the table was a large bowl of noodles and a plate of pomelo pulp; on the fruit plate next to it were snacks, candies, and a cup of malted milk.
The malted milk was sent by Yan Rushan before. She didn't drink it much, and no one in the family went out of their way to drink it. Unexpectedly, Goudan actually brought the malted milk to the table.
"Gou Dan."
"I'm here, master." Goudan came out of the kitchen with a plate in his hand.
Zhong Yuxiu asked, "Why is there malted milk? Noodles will do."
"Master, malted milk is very nutritious here, you can drink more." Goudan placed the plate in front of her, "I made a small dish for you, you can eat it with noodles, eat more."
"Okay." Malted milk doesn't have a bad smell, so it's barely acceptable. "Don't call her pretentious; she really doesn't have a hobby of drinking milk."
Goudan said again, "Master, please take your time. I'll go get some paper and pen to record the materials for the dryer."
"Go ahead."
Goudan turned and went to the utility room, and when he came out he got pen, ink and paper; Zhong Yuxiu took a look and lowered her head to eat. The soup base of the noodles was tasty, and the noodles were chewy and delicious.
After finishing the big bowl of noodles and vegetables, Zhong Yuxiu put down her chopsticks and drank the malted milk. She was so full that she could only look at the pomelo flesh on the side but couldn't put it into her mouth. It was miserable.
Goudan put down his pen and handed over the written paper.
"Master, please have the materials delivered as soon as possible so that Goudan can be made as soon as possible."
"Got it. I'll call Comrade Xi Nian right away." Zhong Yuxiu stood up and left. Goudan cleared the table. After Zhong Yuxiu finished her call, Goudan came out of the kitchen. "Goudan, Comrade Xi Nian said the materials will be delivered in two days. Come by and say hello."
Goudan nodded, "Okay, Master. Do you want to go upstairs and continue sleeping, or read downstairs?"
"I'll read for a while. It's already past ten o'clock. Comrade Yan should be here soon." I slept a little too long. When I have nothing to do, my mind is always the most relaxed and I sleep the most peacefully. I slept a little longer without realizing it.
"What kind of book would you like to read, Master? Goudan will get it for you."
Zhong Yuxiu said, "The medical book 'The Great Physician's Sincerity'."
"Okay, Master, wait a moment." Goudan went upstairs for a moment and came down with a thick book in his hands. He handed it to Zhong Yuxiu, "Master, this is the medical book you requested."
"Thank you." She raised her hand to take it and looked at Goudan. "There's nothing for you to do here. Go get busy."
Goudan agreed and placed the pomelo pulp on the dining table on the coffee table in front of Zhong Yuxiu, who was already sitting on the sofa and flipping through a book.
The medical book "The Great Physician's Oath" is not the original version, and many parts have been revised. She has only read it once, and now she wants to read it again for the second time to carefully appreciate its essence.
When she concentrates on learning, it is easy for her to get into it; once she learns something and gets into it, she will unknowingly fall in love with it.
Unfortunately, what she likes most is scientific research, exploring the principles of all things in the world; if possible, she would like to continue exploring the mysteries of the universe.
When she was at Interstellar, she loved doing research and understanding the secrets of the universe. Interstellar technology was so advanced that it could exploit black holes to travel to another planet, which involved the mysteries of the universe. Now that she's left Interstellar, she misses it quite a bit.
When Yan Rushan stepped into the Zhong family, he saw her reading a medical book.
"Yuxiu."
Zhong Yuxiu looked in the direction of the voice and smiled, "You're here! Come sit here. Goudan has peeled some pomelo pulp. Let's eat it to moisten your throat."
"I'm here." Yan Rushan walked briskly to her side and sat down. He first took the fruit on the coffee table and ate it, then fed her a mouthful.
Zhong Yuxiu blushed and her ears felt hot. She ate whatever was fed to her.
Yan Rushan's heart fluttered, and his brows softened. "Yuxiu, it's getting late, we should go. My mother has prepared some delicious food at home. Before coming here, I went to the state-owned restaurant and bought some meat dishes that you like."
"Well, let's go."
Putting down the medical book, Zhong Yuxiu stood up and went to the utility room to prepare the New Year gifts, and then took out some of the welfare money and put it in the box.
"Brother Yan, take a look at what's missing. It can't be too simple for your first visit."
"These are enough. We have everything at home. Grandpa's New Year's benefits have also arrived, and we can't finish them all." Yan Rushan did not refuse. She showed the necessary courtesy, and no one could make things difficult for her.
"Oh, and we're still short of drinks."
Zhong Yuxiu ran back to the storage room and brought out two bottles of wine. These were also one of the benefits sent down from above. The benefits sent down from above were very good, and the wine was the best among them. It would cost dozens of yuan outside, and it was great whether giving it as a gift or entertaining someone.
"Okay, let's go."
