"Miss Lin... do you want me to help you?" Xiao Jue finally couldn't help but ask tentatively.

Lin Acai finally noticed him: "Oh... brother, if you can't sit still, go inside and take a rest. The lard will take a while to be refined before it can be served."

"...It's not that I can't sit still, I just want to help you more. Do you really not need my help?" Xiao Jue didn't give up and asked again.

Lin Acai suddenly straightened up and glanced at the white meat on the chopping board behind her.

"If you really can't sit still, could you please help me cut the white meat into cubes this big?" She scooped up a piece of white meat from the pot with a colander and compared it.

Xiao Jue nodded: "Oh... OK..."

Xiao Jue stood up happily, but when he actually started cutting the meat, he was dumbfounded. Why was the meat so disobedient in his hands?

It was obvious that Miss Lin looked relaxed when she was cutting the meat.

He always felt that the white meat under his knife would move away by itself, so he was very careful with every cut.

Lin Acai was still busy in front of the pot, not paying any attention to the situation behind her.

Suddenly, she felt a little scared and had a bad feeling. She turned around and asked, "Brother, are you okay?"

Xiao Jue looked at her embarrassedly and suddenly hid something behind him.

Could this person have cut his hand?

Lin Acai immediately put down the large colander in her hand, walked up to Xiao Jue, and pulled his hands behind his back.

You don’t know until you see it. When you see it, your hands are covered in blood!

"Brother...did you cut off your entire hand?"

Lin Acai was clearly worried, but Xiao Jue couldn't help laughing when he heard her asking him this.

"Still laughing? Are you going to use your own meat to serve as a snack for everyone?" Lin Acai added in a very unkind tone.

"It's okay... I just cut my thumb, it's not that serious." Xiao Jue deliberately spoke lightly.

"Are you still okay? I don't dare to use you anymore. Your salary is too expensive. I can't afford it. Besides, my heart is not in good condition. I'm afraid you'll scare me and give me a heart attack."

Although Lin Acai kept teasing, she turned around and ran into the house, found a corner where no one noticed, and quickly took out the disinfectants.

However, Xiao Jue gradually lost consciousness after hearing Lin Acai say that she had a heart disease.

She looks like such a normal person, how could she have a heart disease?

Lin Acai bandaged him skillfully and applied medicine. Xiao Jue couldn't help asking:

"At what age did Miss Lin develop this heart disease? There are many capable imperial physicians and doctors in the capital. I believe someone can cure this heart disease."

Lin Acai was confused by what he said, and she interrupted him hastily: "No... I'm in good health, brother, I'm not sick, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Where is this going?

"Didn't you say that just now?" Xiao Jue was confused and brought up what happened just now, hoping to help her recall her memories.

"Oh... bro, I'm sorry, that was just a joke, don't take it seriously!"

Lin Acai stood up, patted Xiao Jue's shoulder silently, turned around and was amused by Xiao's words.

This guy is really interesting. He actually took her joke seriously.

But Brother Xiao did not let go of his worries. For a moment, he thought that Miss Lin might be concealing the matter intentionally and did not want anyone to know that she had a heart disease.

But it's also true that if he had such a subtle disease, he would definitely not want others to know about it.

"Does it still hurt?" Lin Acai gently wrapped the medicine bandage in her hand around Brother Xiao.

"..."

Xiao Jue was distracted and had forgotten that the two of them were so close.

So close that he could smell her familiar scent just by breathing.

Although I couldn't see her face clearly, I already had a rough outline of the woman in my mind.

A woman who always likes to wear small square scarves of various colors on her head.

A long braid in front of the neck.

She has a small oval face and a very pretty beauty mole on the tip of her nose.

The two children also said that their second sister liked peach pink clothes the most, because she said this color is the most picky, but it also suits her fair and rosy skin best.

Through his careful observation over this period of time, he found that the two guys were right.

This Miss Lin really likes peach pink clothes. She wears this dress most of the time except when she changes clothes.

But a girl of sixteen or seventeen looks really good in clothes of this color.

There is already a clear picture in my mind.

Xiao Jue couldn't help but let a faint smile appear on his face.

Lin Acai asked for a long time but he didn't answer and just smiled at her foolishly.

It's a bit confusing.

Could it be that when I cut my hand just now, it connected to my brain?

She couldn't help but wave her hand in front of him: "Brother Xiao...are you okay? I think you should go inside. I'll clean up here slowly."

Lin Acai started to chase the person away, as she felt that the person was really in the way.

After saying that, Lin Acai quickly walked to the big pot, picked up the big colander, and was very nervous: "It's okay... This oil residue is okay..."

If it’s any later, the oil residue will probably be wasted.

But Xiao Jue didn't take her words seriously at all.

Miss Lin didn't let him cut the meat, so he continued to add firewood and stayed in the kitchen sitting on a small stool, refusing to leave.

If he doesn't want to leave, then don't leave. Lin Acai won't bother with him. As long as he can make sure to add firewood quietly, it's fine.

Then, Lin Acai continued to be busy in the small kitchen, and from time to time she would glance at the person who was adding firewood.

I was afraid that person would hurt me again.

At this moment, Xiao Jue felt warm in his heart.

Although he couldn't see clearly, his eyes followed the peach-pink figure.

At this moment, he has completely understood his own heart.

Lin Acai from this remote mountain village...

It has already lived in his heart without him realizing it.

Mother is right, once that person lives in my heart.

Even if you don't do anything, just watching will make you feel extremely happy and at ease.

Miss Lin said she wanted to open a clinic, so he would definitely let her have one.

Miss Lin said that she could choose to be alone for the sake of her two younger brothers, so he would help her take care of her two younger brothers.

Miss Lin also said that she was afraid of facing the difficult relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. But she didn't have to worry about that. Her mother was open-minded and more clear-headed than he was. She had already said that she would not interfere in the lives of the young couple.

He can completely give Miss Lin the stable life that she always wants.

The oil residue sugar cakes in Lin Acai's hands came out of the pot one after another, but she could never have imagined that in this short period of less than half an hour, Brother Xiao had already walked through a lifetime with her.

"Brother...which cake do you like? Pick one quickly!" The sugar cakes fresh out of the oven are the most delicious. Lin Acai brought the cake bowl to Xiao Jue and asked him to choose.

Xiao Jue was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he felt as if his dream had come true.

Isn’t this the happy life that two people live together after getting married?
