Huo Junshan wondered if he had gone too far. He apologized quietly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. Don't be angry. I'll bring you rabbit meat tonight."

When he said this, Yun Ningyan felt her face getting even redder, but when she heard about rabbit meat, her eyes sparkled.

"Really? I like spicy rabbit the best."

"How about some pheasant soup? Drink some to replenish your body. You are too thin."

Yun Ningyan licked her lips with her pink tongue, as if she was imagining the taste of pheasant soup.

Huo Junshan's throat tightened, and he looked away silently. "Take a break, I'll help you for a while."

After he said that, he went into the cornfield and started working.

Yun Ningyan admired Huo Junshan's working posture. His arms were strong and powerful, and his slightly arched biceps were the source of his strength.

The corn cob fell off with a slight pull in his hand, and he raised his hand to throw the corn cob together. His movements were quick and smooth without any delay.

He finished the two-centimeter work in less than an hour.

Yun Ningyan called out to him, "Stop working, come over and take a break and drink some water." She handed him the kettle, which was full of spiritual spring water.

After the egg cake incident just now, I don’t feel embarrassed now.

Huo Junshan raised his eyebrows, took the kettle and gulped down a few gulps. As the sweet spiritual spring water went down his throat, he felt his body filled with strength.

"I'm leaving now. You can go back later. I'll come to help you tomorrow."

Yun Ningyan nodded and watched him leave.

As soon as Huo Junshan left the cornfield, the team leader came to him and asked, "Old Third, did you go to help with the work?"

Huo Junshan did not hide it and nodded.

The captain was beaming with joy and gossiped, "Third brother, have you reached that stage yet? Have you held hands and kissed each other?"

Huo Junshan thought about what she had just said and thought that this was an indirect kiss, so it was still a kiss.

My ears turned red when I thought about this.

The captain wanted to ask more, but he rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why do you like to gossip like the old lady?"

Captain.......

That he's like a woman?

He raised his pipe and pretended to knock it twice. "Hey! How dare you talk like that, kid?"

This kid keeps his mouth shut. He'll ask his wife to ask his sister-in-law later.

Huo Junshan ignored him and continued working. The angry team leader left angrily.

Yun Ningyan stayed in the field for a while, then went to the team leader to record work points. The team leader smiled from ear to ear and said, "Okay, you can go back!"

After Yun Ningyan returned, she entered the space and prepared the braised pork ribs and rice. She added a pot of water to the pot and started burning firewood so that others would not become suspicious.

After finishing her work, it was not yet time to get off work, so she lay down on her bed to rest and fell asleep without realizing it.

She didn't wake up until Lin Mengmeng came back from work and knocked on her door.

Return the things I bought and the remaining money to Lin Mengmeng. "Mengmeng, I'll invite Huo Junshan to dinner tonight, you can come too."

When Lin Mengmeng heard that Huo Junshan was coming over, she was so scared that she waved her hands and said, "No, that man looks too fierce. I still don't want to eat with you."

Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Yun Ningyan served her some food and let her eat in her room.

When Huo Junshan got home from work, his mother and sister-in-law were cooking, and the yard was filled with fragrance.

Huo Junshan finished his shower, changed his clothes and came in. "Mom, is the chicken soup ready? Bring out the chicken legs so I can take them away."

Mrs. Huo's eyes widened. Those were two big chicken legs, and there was not much meat on the rest. Was the third brother going to keep them all for himself or give them to someone else?

"Third brother, why are you snatching food from the child?"

Li Xiangyun knew that this restless man was looking for trouble again, so she scolded him, "If you still want to eat, shut up."

Mrs. Huo was unwilling to accept this. The family finally had a meal of meat, but the adults wanted to snatch the children away!

She stared angrily at the lunch box in Huo Junshan's hand. "Third brother, are you going to eat two chicken legs by yourself? The children need to nourish their bodies...?"

Huo Jianguo's forehead was throbbing. He glared at the brainless Wang Cuihong and said, "The pheasants and rabbits were brought back by my third brother. You have no right to interfere."

Seeing that her husband did not speak up for the children, Wang Cuihong raised her voice a few notches and said, "These were originally the food for the two children. He gave them to outsiders and did not even give them to the children. How could there be such an uncle?"

When Huo Junshan heard this from an outsider, his face instantly darkened. "If you don't want to eat, don't eat. The child is yours and your eldest brother's, not mine."

Li Xiangyun glared at Wang Cuihong. They, the eldest branch of the family, had taken so many advantages from her, but instead of being grateful, they were calculating and trying not to suffer any loss.

If I had known she was like this, I shouldn't have let the boss marry her.

Huo Jianguo looked embarrassed. His third brother was right. He knew that he had no ability and was able to raise his child so well thanks to his brothers. But his wife was just stupid.

"Third brother, I know that my eldest brother has benefited from you brothers to raise the child so well. I will educate your eldest sister-in-law well. Don't take it personally. She just speaks her mind."

Li Xiangyun felt relieved. Her eldest son's words made her feel much better. She said to Huo Junshan, "Third brother, hurry up and leave. It will be cold soon."

Huo Junshan left with two lunch boxes.

Huo Changgen felt relieved when he saw his third son leave. This eldest daughter-in-law was really petty.

Huo Jianshe didn't have a good impression of his sister-in-law either. He was calculating her little thoughts every day, as if they were unaware.

My eldest brother is so unlucky that he married such a mean wife.

The three brothers Huo Jiandang, Huo Jianjun and Huo Jianshe all shook their heads and said that one must be careful when choosing a wife.

Huo Junshan entered the Youth League Home with a lunch box. He came here openly.

He walked into Yun Ningyan's room without saying a word, and all the educated youth looked at each other in surprise.

Liu Zhijun's face looked extremely ugly. This peasant was coveting Yun Zhiqing. He slammed the table in anger, shocking everyone. He was so angry that he couldn't eat his meal and went back to the house.

Yun Ningyan had already prepared the food: braised pork, spare ribs, and braised fish, all three of which were staple dishes.

Huo Junshan opened the lunch box and a rich aroma hit him in the face. Yun Ningyan was extremely excited. She hadn't eaten spicy rabbit meat for a long time. It was so delicious.

Huo Junshan saw her big watery eyes glowing as she watched the rabbit meat. He chuckled and picked up a piece of rabbit meat and brought it to her lips.

Yun Ningyan swallowed it in one gulp without thinking. The numbing and spicy taste spread in her mouth. She squinted her eyes in satisfaction and savored it carefully.

Huo Junshan put two chicken legs in her bowl. Yun Ningyan took a bite of the chicken and it was so delicious.

She finished a chicken leg in one go, then ate her meal slowly with satisfaction.

He passed the remaining chicken drumstick to Huo Junshan, "One is enough for me."

She gnawed on a few pieces of ribs and ate some rabbit meat. She didn't eat a single piece of the braised fish and only took two bites of rice before she felt full.

She rubbed her stomach and looked at the leftover rice worriedly. It couldn't be wasted, but she couldn't let others eat her leftovers, right?

Huo Junshan finished the rice in a few bites, scooped the remaining rice into his own bowl, and started eating.

Yun Ningyan didn't feel embarrassed at this moment. People in this era lived a hard life, and making them waste food was more painful than cutting their flesh.

She stopped eating and watched Huo Junshan eat. He ate very quickly, but his eating manners did not look ugly.

Huo Junshan cleaned up the remaining food, only to find that Yun Ningyan had been looking at him. He felt a little uncomfortable. "Did I eat too much?"

Yun Ningyan shook her head and said, "Not much. You do physical work, so you need to eat more or else your body will suffer."

She stood up and was about to clean the dishes, but Huo Junshan pushed her down and said, "Just sit down. I'll wash them."

Yun Ningyan didn't refuse. She could cook, but she hated washing dishes the most.

Men of this era would not enter the kitchen. As a guest, he would help wash the dishes for himself. He was a good man who lived a good life.

Huo Junshan paused while washing the dishes, and his movements became more efficient.
