"Okay, okay, I'll prepare less for dinner from now on," Xu Han replied with a smile.
Eating too much at night is indeed bad for your health. I've often heard people say, "Eat well in the morning, eat your fill at noon, and eat less at night, and you'll stay young."
This statement is not without reason, and eating too much at night can easily lead to weight gain. Xu Han also feels that she has gained quite a bit of weight recently!
Maybe it's because my life is better now than before, I don't do particularly heavy work anymore, and I eat so much every day that I've gained weight!
It seems I really need to eat less in the future. Even if there are only a few people here, I need to maintain my figure and not get too fat. It's not only unattractive, but also bad for my health.
Xu Han secretly made up her mind to control her diet every day. Since she couldn't move her legs, she would control her mouth. As expected, she did not continue to grow horizontally.
That evening, Lu Chuan hugged Xu Han and said, "My wife has been working hard building the house lately, cooking and doing housework every day."
"It's not hard work at all. Compared to the work you guys do, what I'm doing is too easy."
"Then I feel sorry for you too. Ever since the Taoist priest and the others came, we've had less and less time alone," Lu Chuan said with a hint of resentment.
"Oh dear! Don't be angry, my husband! I've been busy building the house lately, haven't I? Once this is over, you can take me out for a stroll, without the other two. We'll go have fun by ourselves." Xu Han said coquettishly, hugging Lu Chuan's neck.
"As long as there's no danger, I can still take you out for a walk," Lu Chuan said affectionately.
"I believe you can definitely protect me. I don't trust anyone else, I only trust that you love me the most."
After saying that, Xu Han kissed Lu Chuan...
During this period, they had indeed neglected their relationship. After finishing their work each day, they went to bed early and didn't talk much. Even during the day, they spoke less.
It seems we can't continue like this. If we lack communication over time, our relationship will definitely suffer.
Realizing this, Xu Han and Lu Chuan will pay more attention to this aspect in the future and try their best to increase communication between each other.
Everyone slept exceptionally well that night…
The next morning, after breakfast, the four of them continued digging for sweet potatoes. There was still a small portion of the sweet potatoes left from yesterday, and they would be able to dig them all up by this morning.
The four of them worked until after midnight before they finally finished digging up all the sweet potatoes.
Xu Han took out food from her spatial storage, and everyone started eating immediately.
After dinner, Xu Han said to everyone, "Lu Chuan and I will go to the waterfall later. While there is still water, we will wash the mud off the sweet potatoes so that we don't run out of water to wash them later."
"Is it alright for just the two of you to go? Or should we come along too?" the Taoist priest asked earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Zhao tugged at the Taoist priest's sleeve and said, "Alright, then you two go! Anyway, it's not far. Take the dogs with you and let them run around and relax."
Upon hearing this, the Taoist priest said nothing more. Having achieved their goal, Lu Chuan and Xu Han held hands and led the dogs towards the waterfall.
After the two left, Grandpa Zhao glared at the Taoist priest and said, "Can't you be a little more discerning? Didn't you see that the young couple wanted to spend some time alone? You just had to stick your nose in."
"I'm just worried about them, aren't I? Besides, wouldn't it be slower to wash with more people?" the Taoist priest said, unconvinced.
"Do you still want to hold your grandson? Ever since we arrived, that couple has been with us every day, they don't have any time alone with us, how can their relationship be good!"
Luckily, Xiaohan and Xiaochuan aren't that kind of people, otherwise they would have kicked you out long ago. You have absolutely no sense of propriety.
"You think you're so perceptive! Don't you follow them around every day just like me?"
"If you don't want a grandchild, then keep doing this! Anyway, I've already taken care of Xiaohan's health. If things go smoothly, the baby will be born around this time next year."
Then Grandpa Zhao continued, "Speaking of which, if these two kids call me grandpa, then the other kid has to call me great-grandpa. But if Xiaochuan calls you master, then the other kid has to call you grandpa. So I'm a generation above you! Hahahahahaha."
"So what if you're a dead old man? I'm younger than you. Hahahaha," the Taoist priest retorted quickly.
However, she thought to herself, "I can't call him that, or the generational order will get messed up."
But that's really the situation! We can't expect the girl and Lu Chuan to call Old Man Zhao "Uncle Zhao"! After all, Xiao Han is the same age as Yun Yun.
This is such a hassle, these relationships are such a mess! Oh well, at worst we'll just call each other by our own names!
Meanwhile, Lu Chuan and Xu Han were enjoying a rare moment alone together, even though they were still working! But with no one else around, time seemed to have returned to normal.
The two worked from sunrise to sunset every day, living a very happy life.
But life is pretty good now. There's laughter in the courtyard every day, much more lively than when it was just Xu Han and Lu Chuan.
Each has its own advantages. If Lu Chuan and Xu Han were to live in the deep mountains for seven years without any contact with the outside world, their lives might be even more miserable than they are now!
Being with just the two of you every day is not only boring, but it will also eventually wear down your passion.
Life would be a mess then, and we might even argue every day until we hate each other.
Now, not only do they have two elders helping them out, but they also have an ally when something happens.
And there might be adorable babies coming along later, which will make life even more interesting...
The water flow at the waterfall has decreased significantly. After a morning of intense sunshine, the water temperature is just right; it doesn't feel cold at all, but rather a little warm!
While washing the sweet potatoes, Lu Chuan said, "It seems that the water here at the waterfall won't last much longer. When we need water to build houses, we'll have to go further afield to fetch water from the valley."
"Yes! The water flow here is getting weaker and weaker. At this rate, we probably won't make it to the New Year."
"Fortunately, both of our reservoirs are full. We still need to check them regularly to prevent too much water from evaporating."
"Okay! I'll check the reservoir over here when I leave. The one at home is always full."
After saying that, Xu Han stopped talking and focused on washing the sweet potatoes.
Meanwhile, the dogs, who hadn't been out to roam freely for a long time, were running wildly by the waterfall. Before long, Peanut even caught a wild rabbit and came back with it.
Peanut excitedly picked it up and handed it to Xu Han, who praised him generously, "Peanut, you were amazing today! As expected of your big brother, you're so incredible."
