"Have you thought about it?"
Yang Zhaozhao didn’t care. Since he didn’t care, there was even less reason for her to care.
Besides, this yard is big enough.
In fact, Li Yiling is a good person, capable, and good at work. There is a free labor available, why should she refuse!
With him around, Xiao Cui feels more at ease.
After all, he lives on Farm 616, which is seven or eight miles away from here.
Li Yiling nodded.
Yang Zhaozhao smiled and said, "Then you can live in the west room. Once you clean it up and put down the quilt, you can live there. But there won't be enough quilts."
"It doesn't matter if it's not enough, I'll go back and get my quilt."
Upon hearing Yang Zhaozhao's agreement, Li Yiling's mouth curled up happily. Even though he always had a cold face, he couldn't help but show his joy.
"Yeah." Yang Zhaozhao asked him to sit down: "Go back and pull up the quilt after dinner, before it gets dark."
"Okay!" Li Yiling held a big bowl of rice, shoveled it a few times, and finished the big bowl of rice. Then he scooped another bowl. Yang Zhaozhao cooked a lot.
Li Yiling had a good appetite since childhood, so he had pickled cabbage stewed with vermicelli to go with his rice. The pork belly was lean but not greasy, and it was both satisfying and delicious. He ate until his stomach was full before he put down his bowl and chopsticks.
After Yang Zhaozhao and Xiao Cui finished eating, she quickly went to wash the dishes.
Yang Zhaozhao said: "I'll just wash the dishes!"
"From now on, you cook and I wash the dishes. You can't do the work alone. Don't worry, I will wash them very clean." Li Yiling knew that the water was cold and his hands were freezing.
Yang Zhaozhao said it was impossible not to iron it.
In the past two lifetimes, only Li Yiling is so considerate and hardworking. It turns out that not all men are the kind who just sit back and wait for everything to be handed to them, and then beat up women after eating.
Looking at Li Yiling's back as he washed dishes with hot water, Yang Zhaozhao's eyes were a little complicated.
This isn’t really an older brother, it feels like I have a hardworking “sister”!
After washing the dishes, Li Yiling rode his bicycle back to Farm 616 without delay. Yang Zhaozhao was watching over the stove, boiling water for a bath, waiting for Li Yiling to come back.
Before the water was even heated, Grandma Wang came over with a bowl of steamed potatoes: "It's fresh out of the pot. I moved here thinking of you, so I'll bring you some food."
"Thank you, Grandma Wang. I'll take it without hesitation!" Yang Zhaozhao took the potato and put six eggs in it: "Grandma Wang, Li Zhiqing will also live here. He is worried about us living here."
Grandma Wang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I've rented the house to you. It's up to you how many people live in it. As long as the house is in good condition, it's fine."
"Also, you can't do anything illegal here." Grandma Wang looked at the eggs and quickly pushed them back: "Why are you giving me eggs? You can't do that."
"Grandma, please accept it. If you hadn't let us stay here, we would have to sleep outside today. You know, there's no room for us at the educated youth camp."
Yang Zhaozhao deliberately acted pitifully, knowing that this was the only way to gain their sympathy.
Grandma Wang looked at her sympathetically and took two eggs: "Two are enough, you can take the others back. If you do this, I won't dare to send you anything in the future!"
Yang Zhaozhao did not refuse, took the remaining four back, and chatted with Grandma Wang for a while.
The water is hot, take care of Xiao Cui and let her take a bath and go to bed.
After returning home, Grandma Wang talked to Grandpa Wang about it. Grandpa Wang said, "She is a generous person. She doesn't look as bad as the villagers say."
"Well, what those people in the village said was too rude." Grandma Wang filled some hot water for Grandpa Wang to wash his feet and said, "Those female educated youth are the same. They only know how to bully others. How can they get good grades with such bad character and say they are preparing to go to university!"
Uncle Wang snorted, "There are all kinds of birds in the forest. We can't control other people's feelings. It's okay if we don't bully them."
Grandma Wang nodded in agreement.
Uncle Wang added, "Save the eggs for Brother Quan. He is still young and needs to nourish his body."
The next day, Grandma Wang steamed an egg and made egg custard for her grandson.
In this era, eggs are the best tonic.
As for Yang Zhaozhao and her friends, they took turns taking a hot bath. Xiao Cui was also forced to apply body lotion to prevent her body from becoming dry and itchy.
Both body lotion and shower gel have spaces. Yang Zhaozhao really enjoys guarding a space for supplies when no one is watching.
Xiao Cui sniffed like a dog: "It smells so good, sister, you smell good, and I smell good too, it smells so good, I like it so much!"
Yang Zhaozhao smiled and tapped her little nose: "I'll rub perfume on you from now on."
"Okay, thank you sister!" Xiao Cui rolled happily on the kang.
Yang Zhaozhao washed and scrubbed their clothes while the water was still hot, then hung them in the house because they would freeze if it was too cold outside.
There is a kang in the room, the temperature is high, and the clothes can be dried by hanging them up.
When she was almost done, Li Yiling came back from outside in the heavy snow wearing a military coat. He walked with a limp. Yang Zhaozhao frowned: "What's wrong with his leg?"
"The road was slippery due to snow, and I fell down, but it's okay!" Li Yiling didn't care.
Yang Zhaozhao frowned and went forward to help. Seeing him carrying all his belongings, he thought it was no wonder that he fell. There were so many things that he couldn't even see the bicycle.
After unloading the things, Yang Zhaozhao helped to put them away. Making the bed is something women are good at.
Yang Zhaozhao made the bed and put the pillow down with satisfaction.
Then he stuffed a hot water bottle into the quilt to keep it warm: "We have a kang, you are cold here, I filled the hot water bottle for you and made a quilt for you."
"Thank you!" Li Yiling's heart was beating so fast. He didn't know if it was because he had just come back from riding his bike, or because he saw her sticking her butt out making the bed for him. He felt like he had married a wife.
The word "daughter-in-law" made his heart warm and his face seemed to be hot as well.
Li Yiling, whose throat was a little tight, took a few sips of water from the teacup, and it seemed that the heat in his throat was relieved a little.
Yang Zhaozhao didn't notice Li Yiling's discomfort, and took the potatoes from Grandma Wang and gave them to him: "Grandma Wang sent these, if you're hungry, eat some. There's hot water in the pot, save it for you to wash up, otherwise I'll go back and rest."
Li Yiling nodded. For some reason, he suddenly found potatoes pleasing to the eye and was reluctant to eat them.
After Yang Zhaozhao went back, Xiao Cui was still awake, and she was not sleepy either, so she took a book and read it under the kerosene lamp. There was no electricity in the countryside yet, so they only used kerosene lamps or candles.
Yang Zhaozhao knew that her academic performance was not good enough, so she had to find time to study more because she had to take the college entrance examination.
She has to take the exam again.
While reading the book, Yang Zhaozhao thought of Li Yiling's lame leg. She went to the space to check, but didn't see any medicine. She turned on the search function in the space: medicine for bruises and injuries.
Material space: [Safflower Oil 100, Wanhua Oil 100, Active Oil 100, Huang Daoyi 300]
Yang Zhaozhao scanned the effects of these medicinal oils and chose safflower oil.
Material space: [Consumption successful, purchase a bottle of safflower oil. ]
Soon there was a bottle of safflower oil in his hand. Yang Zhaozhao put on a thick coat and went out. Xiao Cui had fallen asleep at this time and called for her grandma.
Li Yiling glanced at his bruised knee while showering and took a deep breath in pain. He didn't expect the fall was quite serious, but fortunately it wasn't broken.
After washing up, Li Yiling was about to sit for a while and rest. There was a knock on the door, and Yang Zhaozhao's clear voice came through the thin door: "It's me, are you asleep?"
Li Yiling walked over quickly. The pain in his knee made him take a deep breath and rub it before he stood up again: "You haven't slept yet, what's wrong?"
Outside the door, Yang Zhaozhao's little face was hidden by a military coat, revealing a pair of bright and dazzling eyes and a slightly red nose. She looked a little cute, and she looked like a midnight elf.
The elf was jumping around in Li Yiling's heart.
Yang Zhaozhao took out safflower oil: "I have some medicated oil here, you will feel better if you apply some."
Looking at the medicinal oil, Li Yiling's deep eyes lit up little by little, and he smiled, showing four teeth: "Thank you, I will."
Yang Zhaozhao loosened the medicated oil toward him, and Li Yiling then remembered to take it.
I don’t know if it was because his hands were too big or he was careless, but Yang Zhaozhao’s little hand was held in his palm.
The heat from his palm made Yang Zhaozhao's eyes widen.
