Chapter 11: Cooking for the First Time



Nan Qiao was a little confused by Sheng Yanchuan's words. She had nothing to worry about. But she still thanked him. "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."

Sheng Yanchuan said nothing in response to Nanqiao's thanks. He just walked silently in front of Nanqiao.

However, with the appearance of Sheng Yanchuan, Nanqiao felt much relieved. She just carried the basket, and her arms were so tired after just a few steps. Suddenly, Shen Nian was worried about going to work tomorrow.

"Brother Sheng, what kind of farm work is being done in our village now?" Nanqiao didn't know much about the ripening season of these crops. In order to prepare for tomorrow, he had to ask around.

"We are harvesting wheat and planting corn recently. I guess you will go there tomorrow to plant corn. You are not familiar with harvesting wheat, which will delay things."

"But the seeds are not ripe yet..." Nanqiao muttered, and cursed the original owner's stupidity in his heart again... You say, it would be great if this person could work as a clerk in a factory...

"You...take your time, let Taohua go to help you tomorrow." Sheng Yanchuan hesitated, but still said something. It was inconvenient for him to go alone, so he directly sent his sister out.

Taohua: Although I am happy to help sister Nanqiao, I am very angry when you do this...

"That's not good... Taohua is still a child."

Sheng Yanchuan looked back at her and said, "You are not much older than her..." She is quite tall. Sheng Yanchuan added in his heart:

"Well, then I am also an adult! She is still a child."

Seeing her arguing like a child, Sheng Yanchuan could only respond with "Okay, okay, okay."

"Do you have gloves? Remember to bring them when you go to work tomorrow. Also bring a bottle of water. There is only well water in the field. If you drink it, you might get a stomachache." Sheng Yanchuan reminded her with a rare word.

"I have gloves. I'll boil some mung bean water later. Come to our place in the evening and get some. You can also bring some back to your aunt and the others."

“No, just drink it yourself.”

"How can that be? If you feel it's inconvenient, bring Taohua with you." Nanqiao thought it was inconvenient for a grown man like him to come to the yard of two girls, so she added.

Sheng Yanchuan didn't refuse when she said that, "Then I'll come over after dinner."

Nanqiao nodded when he heard this.

Soon we arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

Before Nanqiao entered the yard, she saw Shen Nian sitting in the middle of the yard, looking straight at her.

"You're awake, hey hey hey, what's that look in your eyes?" Nanqiao looked at Shen Nian with a tight mouth and stared at her with his eyes wide open.

"Why didn't you call me when you woke up? I've been waiting for you for a long time. Where have you been?"

Nanqiao walked into the yard and stood in front of Shen Nian, pinched her face and said, "I went to Aunt Xiumei's house to deliver a quilt. When I got up, I saw that your door was closed, so I didn't call you."

"Okay then, I'll forgive you this time," Shen Nian said in a charming voice.

"Haha, okay, I'll make you something delicious tonight to compensate you, okay? I just got a lot of food from Aunt Xiumei." Nanqiao teased her like a child, and pointed at Sheng Yanchuan behind him.

Shen Nian's eyes instantly became sparkling when he heard this.

God knows that besides loving beauty, she also loves eating. When she heard about eating, she couldn't care about anything else.

"Okay, okay, Qiaoqiao, what delicious food are you going to make? I can help you."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to notice Sheng Yanchuan behind Nanqiao, and quickly let go of Nanqiao's hand and said, "Brother Sheng, you are here, give this to me, I will put it in the kitchen." After that, he took the things in Sheng Yanchuan's hand and quickly ran to the kitchen.

What's wrong with her? She's embarrassed herself in front of outsiders several times throughout the day!

"If you can't finish the food, put it in the cellar, otherwise it will go bad easily. Be careful when you go down to the cellar," Sheng Yanchuan said worriedly.

Nanqiao nodded after hearing this.

"Oh, by the way, this is for you. Aunt Xiumei just said she didn't want it, but there are too many meats and vegetables. I can't take it for free."

Nanqiao said as she grabbed one of Sheng Yanchuan's fingers, stuffed the money into his hand, and followed Aunt Xiumei's example by pushing him out of the courtyard.

Before leaving, I asked him to come get some mung bean soup after dinner.

Then he turned back to the kitchen

Sheng Yanchuan, who was outside the door, stood there stupidly, looking down at something.

As for whether to look at the great unity or the finger that was just pulled by him, it was only him.

After a while, Sheng Yanchuan walked home in a dull manner, his mind full of thoughts was the image of that slender white hand holding his own.

At that moment, his heart almost burst out of his body.

But when I thought about what happened during the day, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured on me, and I became completely silent.

When he got home, he gave the money to Sheng's mother and went back to his room.

"What are you doing? Why are you giving me money?" Sheng's mother asked behind her.

"The money that the educated youth from Nan gave you for vegetables"

When Sheng's mother heard this, she got angry and punched him on the back.

"I refused to take it and pushed it away, but you took it back directly!"

"I just happened to meet her, so give it to me. I can't argue with her on the way." Sheng Yanchuan argued, then turned back to his room and closed the door.

Lying in bed thinking about today's events, scratching my head in annoyance

Aunt Xiumei, who was outside the door, saw that her son was not in a good mood. She seemed to have some guesses in her mind, but she felt that it was impossible, so she did not ask anything and turned to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the family.

In the small courtyard of Nanqiao on the other side

Shen Nian and Nan Qiao picking vegetables together

"Qiaoqiao, you're going to work tomorrow. Are you worried?"

"I'm so worried. How can my frail shoulders bear so much..."

"Ah," they both sighed.
