Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

Even when answering Su Wanwan's question, Xu Yan's eyes kept wandering back and forth on the foundation that had been dug near the factory.

There are piles of building materials next to the foundation. Two of the excavated foundations have been filled with materials, waiting for the above-ground construction.

The part belonging to Su Wanwan's office was built the fastest. Some green and slightly brown earth bricks were neatly laid together to form the outline of the office. Even the office door had taken shape.

"Even if you are responsible for a lot of things, you can't not eat. How can you have the energy to work without eating?" Su Wanwan said as she suddenly stood up from the threshold, trotted into one of the factory buildings, and took out a spare small spoon from the drawer of a table.

She had placed this small spoon in the drawer in advance in case of emergency.

After all, Zhao Ying didn't always bring a spoon when delivering meals, and sometimes she would leave the spoon at home, so Su Wanwan would prepare her own small spoon to use for eating.

Today, her mother Zhao Ying happened to bring her another spoon.

"What are you doing?"

When Xu Yan saw Su Wanwan running back to the factory and running out again with a small spoon reflecting the sunlight in her hand, he blinked.

"Anyway, I can't finish the lunch box my mom sends me every day at noon. Since you don't want to go to the cafeteria, I'll just eat with you reluctantly."

Although she was honest and upright in her heart and had no bad thoughts, Su Wanwan's voice suddenly lowered as she spoke, and she gave people a guilty conscience.

"I ate your meal, won't you be hungry?" Looking at Su Wanwan with smiling eyes, Xu Yan reached out to take the spoon she handed to him, but he simply held the spoon in his hand.

"How is that possible? My mother sends such a large amount of food every day, so you can eat as much as you want. Anyway, this lunch box is big. If it's not enough, I will ask my mother to change it to a bigger lunch box tomorrow." Su Wanwan said while opening the copper-aluminum lid of the lunch box——

After a crisp sound, a layer of pork inside caught the eyes of the two.

"You see, my mother always compresses the rice and vegetables so tightly that if you don't know, you would think she has a pig."

Su Wanwan reached out and gently scooped a spoonful: "Oh, by the way, can my elder sister and second sister usually eat meat at home?"

Xu Yan shook his head, with a faint smile on his face, and then he followed Su Wanwan and scooped a spoonful of rice.

"But we killed so many wild boars last time. Didn't you leave some for your elder and second sisters?" The last time Su Wanwan went to Xu's house, Xu Mei took her to the kang in the inner room as soon as she entered, and she didn't go to the kitchen.

I don’t know what the food is like at the Xu family.

"My father was still at home during that time, and there was also Xu En. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I didn't bring anything home." Xu Yan answered honestly.

"Well, your father and Xu En are both in the county now, and they won't be back for a while. You can just go to town and buy some pork for your two sisters. They won't tell anyone anyway."

Even though she had some complaints about Xu Yan's second sister Xu Mei, when she thought about it carefully, Xu Mei had never done anything really bad. She just had a bad mouth. When she didn't speak, she was still very harmonious. If compared, she was much better than her third sister-in-law.

What’s more, these two sisters are about to reach the age of marriage. Who knows when they will be married off. After they get married, I’m afraid they will not be able to eat meat freely.

"Well, I'll consider what you said." Xu Yan ate another spoonful, "I really like the food my aunt cooks."

"Hahaha, then you just eat more. I'll ask my mother to bring some more food tomorrow. There's plenty of it at home anyway." Su Wanwan still had this confidence.

"Oh, by the way, why did you give me that turtle candy last time?" Su Wanwan ate, letting the slightly cool wind and the slightly warm sun blow and shine on her at the same time. She suddenly thought of how she felt when she saw the candy at the bottom of the box that night.

How could a sugar figure be made into the shape of a turtle?

"Don't you like turtles the most?" Xu Yan replied suddenly.

"Huh?" Su Wanwan frowned, "Why would I like something like a turtle?"

"When I passed by the pond before, I often saw you catching frogs and turtles near the pond. I thought you would like it." Xu Yan answered with a look of aggrievedness.

Su Wanwan: "..."

Do yourself a favor!

The reason why the original owner's soul traveled through time and space was related to the pond.

In summer, the village pond is full of water plants. Many people go to the vicinity of the pond to cut water plants and bring them to the cowshed to feed the cows. Some young people in the village also like to play in the pond.

The original owner liked to pick up some useless things in the pond, but she didn't expect that Xu Yan had noticed her at that time.

But not the one she is now...

"Ahem, so you started paying attention to me since then?" In order to ease the embarrassment, Su Wanwan pretended to cough twice.

"No, I just find it strange." Xu Yan's frankness surprised Su Wanwan.

For the first time, she didn't want Xu Yan to continue talking.

The original owner had made too many embarrassing mistakes in the past. The more Xu Yan talked, the more she had to rack her brains to find a way to make up for it...

"Why would a girl go into the pond and play with dirty water like other young men? Other girls in the village would not do this."

Sure enough, Xu Yan still said this.

Su Wanwan felt like crying.

How would she know!

"Ahem, who doesn't have a childlike innocence? Don't you think that catching a few frogs in the pond in the summer is quite... quite fun?"

When saying this, Su Wanwan felt her face getting hot.

Why did Xu Yan have to see her at that time...

"It is indeed quite happy, so I chose a turtle for you."

"Well... I like it very much." At this point, Su Wanwan had no choice but to admit it.

"But didn't you just say you didn't like turtles?"

Su Wanwan: Are you done yet?

"Ah... tell me... if my father asked me... where I would live after I married into your Xu family... what would you answer?"

Knowing that she couldn't handle the problem, Su Wanwan cleverly changed the subject while her scalp was getting stiff.

"I will tell my uncle that my family has no vacant rooms at the moment, and the whole family sleeps on two kangs. If my father and Xu En come back in the future, I'm afraid there won't be enough room."

Su Wanwan: "Don't even mention telling this to my dad. Even if you told me, I would be so angry that I want to hit you." Su Wanwan even laughed as she spoke.

Just now she thought Xu Yan was honest, but now is he being a little too honest?
