Chapter 474
474 Miss Shi is very tough
shi yan had come back with su yu when she was ten years old. whether it was when su yu was alive or after she passed away, shi yan had never brought her classmates or friends back. all the children in the village who attended the same school as shi yan knew that shi yan did not make friends. the village was only so big, so any news would spread as soon as it was spread. therefore, it was not a secret that shi yan did not have many friends in the crescent bay.
Now that she suddenly said that she had brought a friend back, it was hard for Wu Juan Zi not to be surprised.
Shi Yan smiled. yes, I’ve brought my friends. My boyfriend came back with me.
boyfriend?
Wu Juan Zi’s eyes widened.
Not only did she bring a friend, but she also brought a boyfriend! it was already surprising enough that yanyan had friends, but she even had a boyfriend!
after the initial shock, wu juan zi’s expression turned into one of gossip and worry.”You have a boyfriend? where did he come from? you know him in haicheng? Is he reliable?”
he’s reliable. Brother Su chen has seen him before.
“that’s good, that’s good. xiao chen is smart and has seen many people in the outside world. if he is sure of someone, then he should be right.”
“where’s that young man?” aunt wu peeked into the courtyard. ” why don’t i see him? ”
“I was on the road the whole day yesterday and packed my luggage last night. I slept late and haven’t woken up yet.”
“alright, then aunt will go back first. if you want to go back to sleep, cook something to eat before going to sleep. I know your character very well. Even if you came back alone, you wouldn’t go to aunt’s house for a meal, let alone bringing your friends back.”
“It’s rare for you to bring a friend back, but you don’t want to go to zhezi’s house for dinner. Zhezi will catch a chicken from your courtyard later and let your uncle slaughter it, clean it up, and send it to you. When a friend came to his house, he had to make some delicious food to entertain them. Look at all the kids here who bring their friends and classmates back, don’t they receive them well at home?”
“aunt, there’s no need to trouble yourself. you know that i can kill chickens and ducks.”
wu yaozi looked at her unhappily. ” of course i know you can do it. you’re such a quiet and gentle girl. i don’t know how you can do these things so easily. ”
It was all forced by life! This child had been living on his own since he was thirteen years old, so he had to learn how to do these things.
He understood this in his heart, but he did not say it out loud.
“it’s fine for you to do this in the past, but now you’ve brought your boyfriend back. aren’t you afraid that the young man will be scared when he sees you killing chickens and ducks? listen to aunt, let your uncle do this.”
Shi Yan laughed, feeling a little warm in her heart.
“it’s alright, aunt. my boyfriend doesn’t mind. if it doesn’t work, i’ll let him do it. he will.”
did fifth lord jiang know how to slaughter chickens and ducks?
He probably would, but he definitely had not done it.
Shi Yan couldn’t help but laugh when she thought of the scene of the orchid branch and Jade tree-like fifth Lord Jiang rolling up his sleeves and killing chickens.
Wu Juan Zi was a woman from the countryside, but that didn’t mean that she didn’t have a good eye.
As soon as he saw Shi Yan’s unprecedented bright smile, he instantly understood.
It seemed that not only did Yanyan have a boyfriend, but she also liked her boyfriend very much!
but thinking about it, with yanyan’s personality, she didn’t even want to make friends. if she didn’t like that boy very much, how could she be friends?
“Alright, let him come if he can,” she said with a smile. In the past, you had to do these things when you were alone. Now that you have someone by your side, you don’t have to do everything by yourself. i’ve always felt that you’re so fair and clean that you should be pampered and taken care of.”
“aunt, you’re back. it’s cold outside, so you should go back to your room. You’ve just come back, so Auntie won’t bother you. You can feed the chickens and ducks yourself for the next few days. When your boyfriend has adapted to it, you can ask him to come over to my house for a meal.”
This time, Shi Yan did not refuse. She smiled and replied,”alright, thank you, aunt wu.”
after wu kuangzi left, shi yan closed the door and turned around to see jiang che standing outside the house.
He was wearing pajamas, so Wu Juan Zi couldn’t see him from his angle just now.
“Has our miss Shi ever killed a chicken or a duck by herself?”
there was nothing she couldn’t admit. she didn’t hold back against her enemies. it was nothing strange for her to kill a chicken or a duck.
“You heard everything?” she walked towards him with a smile.
“yes.” Jiang che looked at her, his face expressionless.
” there’s nothing strange about this. there aren’t many children who can’t do these things growing up in crescent bay. ” in fact, there weren’t many girls in crescent bay who knew how to kill chickens and ducks.
Mr. Jiang, you wouldn’t have been shocked by the fact that I’m not as demure as you think, would you? ”
“fifth lord jiang isn’t that timid.” As Jiang che spoke, he stepped forward and held her hand to his mouth, breathing on it. the weather is so cold. Next time, don’t wear so little and stay out for so long.
it wasn’t hard to tell that he was worried that she would get cold after not seeing her return for a long time.
“it’s alright, it’s not too cold. As for you, why don’t you sleep a little longer?”
“naturally, it’s because i can’t fall asleep without you by my side.” he was still expressionless when he said this, and he was even lowering his head to breathe on her hand, looking very serious.
shi yan was speechless.
“Then, shall I sleep with you for a while longer?”
only then did jiang che raise his eyes to look at her, as if he was amused by her. a smile quickly flashed across his eyes, and he teased, ” “maybe at night. there’s no need for that now.”
shi yan,”yingluo.”
chuckling, jiang che led her into the house, ” “it’s too cold outside. Since you’re up, cook something to eat. It’s late, you have to eat something. yesterday, when he was sorting out the ingredients, he saw that there were raw materials for making dumplings. do you want to eat dumplings? i’ll cook for you.”
“You know how to make dumplings?” Shi Yan was a little surprised.
the noble fifth lord jiang should have never done something like making dumplings.
“I think so.”
“should be?”
miss Shi, don’t underestimate me. I’m a fast learner. If I want to learn something, I can learn it very quickly.
shi yan believed in this as after all she had eaten the pastries that he made personally. in just a few days, the taste of the pastries that he made was not much different from the ones that shen miao, this old master, made.
“Then let’s eat dumplings, but you can’t make them alone. I’ll help you.”
” no need. go take a shower and change your clothes. you were too tired last night. i fell asleep before i cleaned you up. ”
“Xuanji, teacher Jiang, you don’t have to say everything.”
“it’s fine, there’s no one else here.”
……
The two of them went back to their room to take a shower. shi yan gave jiang che the bathroom in her room and went to su yu’s room to take a shower.
the house wasn’t big and there weren’t many rooms, but each room had its own bathroom.
In the end, the two of them still made the dumplings together, but Shi Yan was mostly the assistant.
when the dumplings were cooked, they could be used for lunch.
The two of them didn’t go out that day. They stayed at home to organize things and see what they needed to buy. They made a list and planned to buy everything in the county tomorrow.
it just so happened that the time for shi yan’s class reunion was set for tomorrow.
that day at home, jiang che accompanied shi yan to remove the grass in the vegetable field, feed the chickens and ducks, clean the yard, and chop firewood.
this was the first time in jiang chen’s life that he had done such a thing.
as he said, his learning ability was very strong. from the start, he knew nothing at all, but he quickly did it well. however, if the people in the outside world, who feared and respected him, were to see him in this state, they would be so shocked that their teeth would fall out.
the next day, the two of them drove to the county early in the morning.
even though they left early, the villagers basically got up early. as the car drove from the end of the village to the end of the village, they still met many people on the way.
when someone greeted shi yan, jiang che would slow down the car so that shi yan could respond to them.
When the people who greeted her saw Shi Yan sitting in the driver’s seat, they would be surprised and curious about who she was. When they heard Shi Yan say that he was her boyfriend, they would smile and praise the young man for his good looks. Some of the more gossipy ones would even ask where he was from.
even shi yan would give a perfunctory reply to haicheng.
it was a perfunctory reply, not a disregard.
The people here were all very simple and had no ill intentions. Facing them, Shi Yan was very patient.
Jiang che saw all of this. When the car left the village, he sighed and said, ” “it’s pretty good here.”
she had lived in such a clean village for nine years, so she should not have been bullied by the villagers. he felt a lot more at ease.
“it’s because i haven’t been back for a while. when they saw me back, they couldn’t help but be more enthusiastic. After staying in the village for a long time, friction is inevitable, but it’s just small quarrels. Those who quarreled today will come to the other party’s house to help tomorrow.”
“So, in general, this place is really good,” Shi Yan looked at him and smiled.
“Should we go to the school or to the shop first?” jiang che asked.
the time for the class meeting was set for the afternoon, and the visit to the form teacher was also set for the afternoon. it was shi yan and jiang che who had agreed to go to school.
Jiang che wanted to visit the school that Shi Yan had stayed at for three years.
” let’s go to the school first. after we leave the school, we’ll go buy things and find a place to have lunch. the agreed meeting time is two in the afternoon, so we can make it. ”
