After dinner, he went upstairs and locked himself in the laboratory to study the medicinal properties of the herbs sent by Yan Rushan; mental power was more useful than a microscope for exploration.
Goudan packed up and went downstairs, then came back upstairs. He was of no help to her in researching medicinal herbs. He had no tools to detect the medicinal elements, so he could only help out and take notes.
I was busy until after ten o'clock, and only then did I figure out the medicinal properties of seven or eight kinds of medicinal herbs; time was up and I had to go to bed.
Edict.
Zhong Yuxiu got up early and went downstairs to find Yan Rushan, who had arrived at some point, sitting on the sofa drinking tea and reading the newspaper.
"Brother Yan, good morning."
"Good morning, Xiu'er." Yan Rushan turned around and smiled. He put the newspaper and tea on the coffee table, stood up and walked towards her. "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Not bad, I slept all night long." Zhong Yuxiu nodded, her eyes smiling. "When did Brother Yan come over?"
Yan Rushan held out his hand, waited for her to place it in his palm, and then took her to the bathroom. "It wasn't long before breakfast was ready. I made you some fried eggs and dumplings. Give me your feedback after you eat."
After she finished washing up, he took her to sit on a chair next to the dining table. Facing the steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings, fried dumplings, poached eggs, and red bean porridge on the table, Zhong Yuxiu smiled like a flower.
“So much food.”
"Eating the same thing every day will make you sick of it. Let me change it up for you. There are crisp dates in the kitchen. You can eat a few after dinner." Sitting down beside her, Yan Rushan's brows softened, his eyes smiled, and his thin lips curled slightly. "It's the beginning of the new year, and the black market is thriving. A lot of winter and spring fruits have been sent in from other places. There are wild fruits, and there are also fruits that the team planted the day before yesterday. Some of them have been dehydrated by the long journey and are no longer beautiful or delicious."
"Only crisp dates and persimmons preserve well. I brought you five pounds." After saying this, Yan Rushan handed her the chopsticks on the table and smiled gently. "There are crisp persimmons in the kitchen. I heard they were shipped from Shanxi. Crisp persimmons are suitable for long-term storage."
Zhong Yuxiu's eyes lit up. "And there are crispy persimmons. They're delicious as long as they're not astringent and sweet enough. They have a unique flavor after being roasted. Thank you, Brother Yan, for your thoughtfulness."
"What are you thanking me for? No need to thank me. It's my duty to take care of you." He picked up a fried egg for her. It was fried well and looked beautiful, but I don't know how it tasted.
What should and should not be done? No one in the world should do anything for others unless there is a reward or there is a motive.
Haonan and Tian Shangguo came out of the kitchen after hearing the noise. Tian Shangguo was holding a plate of peanuts. He walked to the dining table, put the plate on the table and pushed it in front of Zhong Yuxiu.
"Good morning, Comrade Zhong."
"Good morning to you too." Zhong Yuxiu smiled and looked smart. "It seems like you got up extra early today."
It was just past seven o'clock, so she got up early. These two people got up even earlier than her. Look at all the food, I wonder how much they helped.
Haonan said: "We got up after five o'clock."
"Why are you getting up so early? It's cold and snowy outside, and there's no need to go out for exercise so early."
"I woke up and got up because I couldn't fall asleep." Tian Shangguo said briefly.
Zhong Yuxiu understood, "Let's eat."
After breakfast, Yan Rushan sent everyone to the Medical University, so Haonan and Tian Shangguo could not go in.
From that day on, Zhong Yuxiu came to the Medical University to study every day and followed President Xu to see patients; she went to Huazhong University of Science and Technology once on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays; if she had nothing to do after class, she would return to the Medical University to continue her classes.
Zhong Yuxiu was so busy that she forgot about getting married, so Yan Rushan brought it up when she was free.
"Oh, I forgot about marriage." Zhong Yuxiu asked, "What documents do I need to prepare for marriage registration?"
"I'm ready."
Yan Rushan took her home. No one was at home, so he went upstairs to get the certificate and gave it to her. "Why not wait for a better day? Let's go today."
When she gets busy, she forgets about herself, let alone getting married.
"sure!"
Zhong Yuxiu readily agreed, Yan Rushan was delighted and took her out; Haonan and Tian Shangguo hurriedly followed. Yan Rushan originally wanted to drive himself, but Haonan forced him to the back seat and drove straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
When the two came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, each of them held a marriage certificate in their hands; those days were different from later times, not only did they not require photos, but the certificate was also very simple, almost the same as a student certificate.
"So we're getting married?!"
Yan Rushan took the marriage certificate from her hand, put the two together, and put them in his pocket. He took her hand and clenched it in his palm, "From today on, we are officially husband and wife. Let's go home and make you something delicious. Can we have dinner at my house today? No, now it's time to talk about our family."
Zhong Yuxiu understood his happiness and excitement, but it still felt unreal. She had agreed readily, but felt a little dazed after getting the certificate.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Seeing her motionless, Yan Rushan asked softly, feeling uneasy.
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head and pinched him with her free hand. "Does it hurt?"
"It hurts a little."
"Then it's true." Zhong Yuxiu said confidently.
Yan Rushan: “….”
"I thought you were unhappy." He squeezed her little hand, and the tension disappeared without a trace.
Zhong Yuxiu smiled sweetly, "Why are you unhappy? I agreed to get married, and I'm not someone who goes back on my word."
Since you have agreed, you have made mental preparations; what's wrong with experiencing a new life?
"As long as you're happy." He took her hand and walked to the front of the car, opened the back seat and put her in, and he followed her in.
Tian Shangguo drove the car, and Haonan was still in the passenger seat as they drove away from the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Along the way, he was in a good mood and frequently looked at the girl beside him.
Arrived at the compound, drove to the gate of Yan's house and parked.
"Wait." Yan Rushan said and got out of the car first. Under her puzzled gaze, he walked around the front of the car and extended his hand, "Yuxiu, get out."
Zhong Yuxiu held out her hand to him, letting him lead her out of the car. The two stood side by side, as if they could feel each other's body temperature. His big hand tightly grasped her soft hand, and she could clearly feel the joy emanating from him.
Haonan and Tian Shangguo got out of the car one after another, locked the door and went into the Yan family's small building; it was still early, so Yan Rushan went to cook himself.
"Yuxiu, what do you want to eat?"
"What can you do?" Zhong Yuxiu asked as she followed him into the kitchen.
Yan Rushan thought for a moment and said, "Meat soup? Braised pork? Stir-fried vegetables?"
"That's all." She couldn't cook anyway.
"Okay, I'll steam some bacon for you and put it on the rice."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded without hesitation. Steaming bacon with rice is very fragrant; it does not taste greasy and goes well with rice.
Steamed bacon with rice wasn't a common dish; it had to be eaten in a restaurant. Furthermore, authentic bacon wasn't easy to come by, whether in the future or now. In the future, authentic bacon was incredibly expensive and hard to come by. She had only eaten it a few times in one of her past lives, and it was indeed delicious.
Now that I think about it, it actually aroused my gluttony.
