Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog

Chapter 16: Encountering an Idol

I was really possessed yesterday. Why would I reach out and touch someone's abdominal muscles?

It felt good at the time, but it was like a crematorium afterwards.

I can't even face people like this.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! ! !

Help! ! !

How do I start talking now?

Especially since there are only two people at home, you can't even hide.

Su Yan was so troubled that he didn't notice when the noise from the front yard stopped.

There were footsteps in the yard, and then the door was opened.

The scorching sun and the young man came into her sight, stinging her eyes and making them sore.

At this moment, Su Yan suddenly seemed to have figured something out and was no longer nervous.

Perhaps the meaning of life in ancient times that she had been looking for had already appeared quietly beside her.

He An thought Su Yan hadn't woken up yet, so he wanted to go see her.

In fact, he had come several times this morning. He could never get enough of looking at her. He felt at ease even if he just stayed by her side and did nothing.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door this time, I saw Su Yan sitting in front of the dressing mirror, putting on makeup.

The morning sun shining on her gave her a feeling of being a beautiful lady hidden in a golden house.

He touched his nose a little shyly, coughed to cover it up, and said, "Are you hungry? I bought you breakfast, come and eat it?"

Su Yan calmed down at this time, secretly admired his shyness, and said, "Okay, I'll wash up now."

Then he chatted casually, "Open today? I seemed to hear someone talking just now."

He An nodded: "Yes, I sold ten kilograms."

Su Yan raised her eyebrows: "Oh, the food has just arrived, and there are not many people in the store these two days. This is a big deal."

He An also agreed. That’s right. The number of people coming and going in the store these past two days can be counted on one hand, and most of them buy by the pound or two.

Ten kilograms is a big business.

But the two are not in a hurry. This is how business works, there are peak seasons and off-seasons.

They had already made a lot of money in the peak season in the first two months, so they don’t think it’s a big deal that it’s the off-season now.

It also provides time to clean up the food at home and make room to harvest new food in a few days.

Their family now basically has old grain collected from the clan. As for the new grain, Su Yan has already asked someone to send a message to her parents' home asking for it.

It will be delivered in a few days.

So they had to free up some space for the new grain, and if there was not enough space, they would move it to the old house.

After dinner, Su Yan took over He An's job of looking after the store in the front yard, while He An went to the woodshed and cellar in the backyard to collect the old grain.

At noon, the two of them switched roles. Su Yan went to buy groceries and cook, while He An came to the store to take a break.

It was a bit hot at noon, and Su Yan wanted to make some cold noodles with rice, but after taking the money, she asked He An before leaving. Unexpectedly, he shyly said that he still wanted to eat yesterday's braised pork with preserved vegetables.

Su Yan thought about it and decided to use the braised pork with preserved vegetables as a topping for the cold noodles at noon since she had nothing else to do.

My home is close to He's grandparents, so I can send the food there after it's cooked for them to try. But He's father and mother's home is too far away, so I can just forget about it.

However, if it was to be sent to Grandpa He and Grandma He, it couldn't be as casual as it was at home. Su Yan thought about it and told He An that she would go to the pharmacy to see if there were any bay leaves.

He An also nodded in agreement.

So Su Yan made a rough estimate, went back to get some money, and went to the pharmacy.

After buying the bay leaves, I passed by a wine shop and ordered two more bottles of wine.

I bought two pounds of pork belly and half a pound of pickled mustard greens.

Su Yan was out for a full quarter of an hour before returning.

The weather in June was already very hot, and Su Yan was sweating profusely when he came back.

When I got home, I drank a big bowl of tea and sat down to rest for a while before cooking.

She first kneaded the dough and cut the noodles, then washed the vegetables at the well, and went to the kitchen to cut the meat into pieces.

He wanted to light the fire himself, but was afraid that he couldn't control the temperature well, so he called He An over again.

The door to the front yard was closed first. It was noon now and the sun was high in the sky, so basically no one would come to the store.

Having done it once yesterday, Su Yan did it even more smoothly today.

And today I added bay leaves, the flavor is even stronger than yesterday, the fragrance fills the yard before the dish is even out of the pot.

After the braised pork with preserved vegetables was ready, Su Yan took out a bowl of noodles from a large bowl, covered it with a plate, and handed it to He An, asking him to take it to He's grandparents. She then scooped out the cooked noodles from the other pot and rinsed them twice with the freshly drawn cold well water.

He An took the bowl and went out. He walked quickly thinking about coming back to eat.

Unexpectedly, when I was near Grandfather He's house, I happened to meet Uncle He who was returning from his business trip.

He quickly stopped to say hello.

Uncle He is very kind. His home is not far from Grandfather He’s home. In terms of seniority, Grandfather He is his second uncle, and they usually interact with each other.

But after all, He An used to live with his parents in the east of the city and had only moved here not long ago, so he looked a little unfamiliar.

He An quickly introduced himself: "I am He An, and my grandfather is He Cheng."

Uncle He Qi said, "Uncle Cheng's grandson, I think I heard someone say you moved here."

I also heard that this kid was separated from his family because he disobeyed his parents before he got married, and his parents didn't care even after he got married. As an elder in the clan, he had some opinions about him.

But today, I see that he is a shy and honest young man. He has seen countless people and has good judgment.

He secretly thought that the rumor was indeed false.

He looked at the bowl in He An's hand and asked, "Are you here to give Uncle Cheng something?"

He An nodded and said, "My wife made pork with preserved vegetables. I'll give some to grandpa and grandma so they can try it."

Well, if nothing else, at least he is filial. He always thinks of the elderly when making delicious food and sends it to them eagerly.

Uncle He Qi said, "It's the food from the south."

"Uncle Qi, have you ever eaten it?"

Uncle He Qi stroked his beard and replied, "One year when I went to the capital, I went to a restaurant. The restaurant was run by a southerner, and their signature dish was this pork with preserved vegetables. I ordered it at the time, and it was fatty but not greasy, and it was very delicious."

He An touched his head and said, "We are just doing it blindly to try the taste. It is definitely far from that restaurant's."

Uncle He laughed and said, "That's the skill of the shop owner. We can't compare with him, but you are lucky to get a little bit of it."

He An touched his head in astonishment and smiled like a fool.

Uncle He Qi: "Okay, go and send it to Uncle Er. The food won't taste good if it gets cold."

He An sighed and said goodbye to Uncle He Qi: "Uncle Qi, see you later."

Uncle He smiled and waved his hand: "See you later."

He An was very excited all the way back from delivering the food.

If he hadn't thought of himself as an adult, he would have wanted to jump up and shout to express his excitement.

He endured it all the way, and when he got home, he went into the kitchen without stopping and shared with Su Yan: "Yan Yan, guess who I just saw?"

Su Yan: "Huh? You're so excited, who did you meet?"

"Guess, guess."

Su Yan saw that he was extremely excited, and the light in his eyes was so hot that it was blinding.

Hmm...this expression seems familiar.
