"Okay, thank you, auntie."
Song Chi sat obediently on a small stool to help watch the fire and wait for Lu Lan to heat up the noodles for him.
The more Lu Lan looked at Song Chi, the more she liked him. He was so well-behaved, and his voice was so soft and sweet that she wanted Song Chi to be her daughter-in-law.
Anyway, she still has a son, so she doesn't have to worry about not having offspring.
"Auntie, I'll go take lunch to Lu Yanchen and the others later. Just pack the bag and put it on the table."
"Okay, Yan Chen told Jiang Di to accompany you. Jiang Di will be here soon."
Lu Lan smiled with her eyes narrowed. It was obvious that her eldest son was very concerned about Song Chi and seemed to like Song Chi. Naturally, she had to give her eldest son the opportunity to get along with Song Chi.
Not long after Song Chi finished eating, Jiang Di came and ran happily into the small dining room in the main house, "Sister-in-law."
"Jiang Di."
Song Chi's eyes lit up instantly. "Come, come, sister-in-law will give you steamed buns, candy, and plum biscuits."
Song Chi stuffed all the food into Jiang Di's arms. He wanted to take Jiang Di away quickly while she was still young and could easily run away with something delicious. It would be harder to take her away when she grew up and became smart.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Jiang Di didn't know that this was the payment for selling herself, so she hugged the food tightly and looked up to thank him sweetly.
Song Chi felt inexplicably guilty.
Suddenly he looked at Jiang Di. She was only nine years old and her face had not fully grown yet, but it was already obvious that she was a great beauty. No wonder so many men in the article were deceived by Jiang Di.
"This bag contains water, and this bag contains lunch."
Lu Lan packed the things and told Song Chi, but gave them all to Jiang Di to carry. He handed the lightest snack bag to Song Chi, "This is what Yan Chen bought for you. He said it's for you to kill time. You can share it with Jiang Di on the way."
Song Chi was a little embarrassed. Why was he treated like a child?
"Now that the sun is bright, go early and come back early." Lu Lan coughed twice and reminded.
"Okay~"
Song Chi followed Jiang Di out. Before walking out of the courtyard gate, he looked at Gu Chen's room. The door was still closed, which meant that he had not woken up yet.
When he was almost at the village entrance, Song Chi saw from afar the village chief and his wife Wu Guihua lying on the coffin crying and almost fainting.
Song Chi was stunned. Did anyone in the village chief's family die during this period? There shouldn't be any!
Just as Song Chi was puzzled, several aunts surrounding the village chief and his family sighed, "We finally managed to support such a child to go to university in Kyoto, how could he be gone just like that?"
"That's right! Su Nuan has been a smart kid since she was young, how could something like this happen to her?"
"I heard that Su Nuan wasn't looking when crossing the road and got hit by a car. The guy who hit Su Nuan was a rich young man. He said the responsibility wasn't theirs, but he did pay 10,000 yuan in compensation."
"Oh my god! Ten thousand yuan? A girl is worth that much!"
"Oh, you have such a bad mouth. It's still so late now."
The woman quickly covered the man's mouth and nervously glanced at the village head and his wife who were lying on the coffin and crying.
Song Chi, who was standing at the back of the crowd, widened his eyes in disbelief. What had he just heard? The heroine Su Nuan...she was dead?
