Cheng Mingyue was choked and rolled her eyes: "Seventh Uncle, what you said is all outdated. Why don't you allow me to make progress? Your ideological awareness is not good enough!"
Cheng Tianlai curled his lips again and said, "Come on, stop putting the blame on me. Regardless of whether you make progress or not, I will not treat his leg."
Lu Chen didn't say anything else. He knew how difficult Cheng Tianlai was. He had begged him to treat his grandfather but to no avail.
There was a little disappointment, but he could still bear it.
Lu Chen stood up and grabbed Cheng Mingyue's arm, "Mingyue, forget it. Since Uncle Seventh doesn't want to, let's not force him."
Cheng Mingyue didn't want to give up just like that, so she said, "Uncle Qi, wait for me." Then she ran into the kitchen, and soon she brought out a small jar of chicken chili sauce.
This jar was made by her for Grandpa Lu Chen some time ago. She made a little too much, so she left some for them and usually kept it in the space.
Now, in order to make Cheng Tianlai give in, I have to bring this out to whet his appetite first.
Cheng Mingyue opened the lid, and a strong and overbearing fragrance hit her nose. Cheng Tianlai's eyes were glued to the jar and he couldn't take them away.
He now completely believed that this girl Mingyue was quite capable.
Just as Cheng Tianlai reached out to take the jar, Cheng Mingyue retracted her hand and sighed in a sad manner:
"Lu Chen is right. I really shouldn't force Uncle Qi. Forget it. Let's wait until conditions improve. I'll accompany you to Jing City. There's always someone there who can heal your leg."
After saying that, he walked towards the kitchen with the jar in his hand.
Come back, bring it back quickly!
Cheng Tianlai kept shouting in his heart.
If he can't see that Cheng Mingyue, that damn girl, is deliberately coveting him, then he has lived in vain for the past few decades.
He used both provocation and inducement, and said nothing could stop this damn girl from succeeding.
Thinking of this, Cheng Tianlai glared at Lu Chen fiercely, then went up the mountain with the backpack on his back without looking back.
Cheng Mingyue put the jar in the space, and when she walked out of the kitchen, she found that Lu Chen's eyes were looking at her with something wrong.
What the hell is going on?
Lu Chen saw that Cheng Mingyue was so dedicated to his leg injury, whether in the town or when he begged Cheng Tianlai just now. Thinking of what she had just said, "My Lu Chen", he felt very excited.
I couldn't help but think over and over again in my mind: Is it possible that Cheng Mingyue is not completely indifferent to me? Does she have a good impression of me?
Lu Chen wanted to ask, but he was a little afraid. He was afraid to hear Cheng Mingyue say something that would disappoint him, and he suddenly felt a little melancholy.
Cheng Mingyue was helpless. Lu Chen's expression kept changing, and she really couldn't figure out what he meant.
Forget it, never mind, she should go back to her room and read a book.
Lu Chen: “…”
Did she just leave like that?
He followed him into the house with his head hung.
For the rest of the afternoon, Cheng Mingyue and Lu Chen were both reading books. Apart from the sound of turning pages, the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Cheng Mingyue was indeed watching intently, but Lu Chen was a little absent-minded, stealing glances at Cheng Mingyue from time to time. Perhaps it was because he stole glances too often that Cheng Mingyue finally noticed.
"Lu Chen, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Chen stuttered when he spoke: "...No...Nothing..."
Does this look like everything is alright?
Cheng Mingyue thought Lu Chen was worried about his leg injury, so she closed the book and walked over to him. "Don't worry, Uncle Qi's eyes widened when I first took out the chicken chili sauce. If we set a trap for him with this, he definitely won't last long."
Lu Chen was too guilty to look at Cheng Mingyue, and only nodded randomly: "If you say it's okay, it's definitely okay. I'll listen to you."
Listen to me?
Cheng Mingyue remembered that she had promised before that she would listen to Lu Chen in everything. How could things change so quickly in just a short time?
There can’t be any conspiracy!
Cheng Mingyue looked Lu Chen up and down, her eyes full of confusion.
Lu Chen was so engrossed in Cheng Mingyue's gaze that he buried his head in the book, but his red ears and neck betrayed his current mood.
Cheng Mingyue clicked her tongue a few times.
Are boys also this shy?
She subconsciously reached out and touched Lu Chen's ear. The next second, Lu Chen jumped up as if he was stung by a scorpion and almost knocked Cheng Mingyue over.
Lu Chen tried to support Cheng Mingyue in a panic, but accidentally touched her chest.
The soft, cotton-like touch made Lu Chen's palms numb, and even his scalp. He raised both hands above his head and said, "I...I...didn't mean to do that."
It was the first time that Cheng Mingyue was attacked on the chest by a man, and her face flushed. Her face, which was originally as white as jade, was as bright as if it was painted with rouge. Lu Chen unconsciously covered his chest with his hand, trying to suppress the "bang bang bang" heart that was about to beat up his throat.
My life is over!
Only these four big words appeared in Lu Chen's mind.
Cheng Mingyue glared at Lu Chen, who was still in a daze, and turned to run to the backyard to see the chicks.
Cheng Mingyue looked at the chick that had grown a size bigger, and her heart was filled with turmoil. The blush on her face slowly faded away after a long time.
Cheng Mingyue took out a small bundle of vegetable leaves from the space, chopped them up and fed them to the chicks. Looking at the chicks scrambling to eat happily, she couldn't help but sigh: "You are so lucky. You don't have seven emotions and six desires, and there are people to feed you regularly."
During the days that Cheng Mingyue was away, Wang Guihua came to feed the chicks at a fixed time, for fear that they would become hungry and thin.
Even the chicken coop was rebuilt with the help of the village chief and others, and it was surrounded by a fence, which made Cheng Mingyue very satisfied.
Eggs are hard currency in rural areas, and there has always been a saying of "chicken butt bank" in this era.
Most people were reluctant to eat eggs, so they saved them one by one and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to exchange them for daily necessities, or for their children's tuition.
Cheng Mingyue raised these chickens purely to cover herself up. There were so many eggs in her space that she couldn't eat them all, and there was no suitable opportunity to take them out, so she came up with this idea.
After feeding the chickens, Cheng Mingyue washed her hands and prepared to cook dinner. At this time, Lu Chen pretended nothing had happened and followed her into the kitchen.
Cheng Mingyue is going to make some mixed noodles tonight. She loves to eat this. She learned a few tricks from a chef in Beijing before, and he praised the mixed noodles she made as authentic.
There is a reason why I suddenly wanted to make fried noodles with soybean paste.
Cheng Tianlai’s favorite dish is fried noodles with soybean paste. It seems that when he was a child, there was a cook in his family who was best at making this dish. Cheng Tianlai has remembered the taste for decades.
Now you need a letter of introduction to go out. She believed that Cheng Tianlai hadn't eaten it for many years, so she deliberately made some fried noodles with soybean sauce to tempt him, because she didn't believe he could hold on.
Cheng Mingyue first kneaded the dough and set it aside to rise.
He also took out the pork and yellow sauce he bought at the supply and marketing cooperative that day from the space.
