"There are...and many more..."
There were many, but after thinking for a long time, he could only manage to name a few.
Never mind, Yin Lan won't make things difficult for anyone.
To be honest, the two of them didn't spend much time together. If you asked Yin Lan to name his good points, all she could think of was that he was good-looking, had a good physique, and could fight, which made her feel safe.
If it's just a compromise, he is indeed a good choice. After all, he already has three children. Since he took the initiative to offer a way out today, Yin Lan is not an unreasonable person.
"Alright, then for now... we'll just have to make do."
Otherwise... what else can we do?
Yin Lan added, "However, we need to clarify things beforehand. The things I did in the past," referring to the things the original owner did, Yin Lan had already taken the blame for. As for anything else, she couldn't do that. "Since you're saying this now, you can't bring up the past again."
Chen Yourun naturally agreed.
What has happened in the past cannot be changed; what matters is the future.
There's only one bed in the house...
Chen Yourun immediately came up with a solution: "Shall I make another bed right away?"
"Alright," Yin Lan agreed readily.
Chen Yourun's eyes had just lit up when Yin Lan had already made the arrangements: "Put the bed in the outer room. The inner room is too small, and we need to make a wardrobe. You can make one at the same time and put it in the outer room. It will be convenient for you to keep watch at night. The baby can sleep with me, just like before."
Chen Yourun looked at her determined gaze. The fact that she stayed was already beyond his expectations; these things were naturally not a problem, but...
There were only two rooms in the house, which was definitely not enough for two adults and three children. He started planning to build another room as soon as possible, or rather, to build more rooms.
He and Yin Lan's children will each need their own room when they grow up.
Chen Yourun was making plans.
“Also, the toilet at home, or rather the outhouse, is too far away and too dirty,” Yin Lan said, looking at him.
Chen Yourun immediately understood, "This is simple, I'll take care of it."
Actually, when he built the bridal chamber before, he had taken all these things into consideration. However, the house was later sold by Yin Lan. As for the outhouse, a relatively large pit needed to be dug underneath, with holes for air to escape, otherwise the gas produced by the excrement would be dangerous.
Yin Lan naturally knew this as well; when she was a child in the countryside, she had seen every household using biogas as fuel.
However, there is no such gas equipment in this area, and Yin Lan could not possibly buy one from the system. If someone saw it, it would be really hard to explain.
However, is it possible to make a simple one using the materials we have?
Yin Lan decided that she could give it a try when she had time in the future.
"Also, I think this winter will be a bit cold, and it might snow heavily, making the temperature even colder than before, so I need more firewood."
Chen Yourun glanced at Yin Lan unexpectedly. Because he had been traveling all over the country for many years, enduring wind and rain, he was more sensitive to the weather than the average person. On his way back, he had already sensed that this winter was unusual, but it seemed that no one in the village had noticed.
He had already prepared firewood and other fuel for heating in the next couple of days, but he didn't expect his wife to have thought of that as well.
His eyes lit up again as he looked at Yin Lan. "Time is a bit tight. I can only set up a shed for now. The house at home can't hold that much firewood. If it's left out in the open, it will get wet sooner or later and then it won't be usable."
Yin Lan thought the same way, but she couldn't do it herself.
Now that there's another man in the family, and such a reliable one at that, Yin Lan realizes that there are many benefits to it.
There are many other things she wants to do. For example, it's inconvenient to take a bath in winter. She also wants to make something like a sofa and a recliner. Apart from the bed, there's really nothing to sit on in her house.
"I'll think about the bathing area again. I'll build one in a specific location, avoiding the drafts, and then use the heat from the fire in the kitchen to create a warm bathhouse, if you need it..."
When Chen Yourun spoke, Yin Lan's eyes were already shining brightly; it was the first time he had seen such longing in her eyes.
Like a kitten's paw gently scratching, "I'll do this after I finish other more important things."
He sounded a little nervous as he spoke. It was clear that she really wanted a bathhouse, but that wasn't the most urgent thing. The shed, firewood, wild boars, and bandits were far more pressing for Yin Lan.
But he was afraid that Yin Lan would be angry. She wanted it so much, but he refused, and he was afraid that she would think that he was not attentive or caring.
Yin Lan herself was actually very satisfied. She did want a bathroom, but she was worried that even if there was one, it would be very cold to take a bath in winter. She didn't expect Chen Yourun to have such ability to use the location and existing resources to make one that wasn't so cold. Moreover, she didn't even ask; he brought it up on his own initiative.
Yin Lan felt that although this man looked rough and careless, with arms thicker than her thighs, he was actually quite meticulous.
She silently added one point to his score in her mind.
"No rush, you can take care of the other things first. We'll talk about your bed once it's finished."
Chen Yourun's gaze towards his wife immediately changed again.
He had seen unreasonable and argumentative women before. Sometimes it wasn't that they wanted to act that way, but rather that they lacked experience and a broader perspective, yet desperately wanted others, especially their men, to affirm their value, so they always demanded that they be put first.
His wife wasn't like that at all.
This shows that his wife is very open-minded, or rather, she actually cares about him.
Chen Yourun felt as sweet as if he had drunk sugar water.
Yin Lan was indeed heartbroken, but not in that kind of way.
What she was thinking was that there were so many things to do, and of course, staying alive was the most important thing. Besides, she couldn't do those things herself and didn't want to do them. It was too much of a waste to leave them all to Chen Yourun, who still had a leg injury. If he got too tired, they would have to spend money on medicine.
If things get any worse, and the person dies, based on what she's discovered during her time in Iron Sword Village, most of the men in the village aren't very capable. The best one is still her husband. If he dies, it will be difficult to find someone similar. So Yin Lan still needs to leave him some breathing room.
"Um... your leg injury hasn't healed yet, take your time with these things," Yin Lan said, offering a token word of comfort and concern.
Anyway, he does all the work.
Yin Lan had already made all the arrangements perfectly clear.
If there's anything else needed at home, the kids have already figured it out: they want their dad to come back and fix this, mend that, or do this.
The child's father is quite useful.
