Su Yunjie chattered incessantly. Without his parents' supervision, he seemed freer and more cheerful at this moment.

This is not because Su Yunjie is managed strictly, but quite the opposite.

Unlike Su Mengyao who was sent down to Qingshan Township, Su Yunjie was sent down to Mengdi.

Due to his background, Su Yunjie was assigned the job of guarding the grassland.

On the endless prairie, he was the only one with a dog for several kilometers around. If it weren't for the fact that someone regularly delivered supplies to him every week and he was still able to talk to others, he would have gone crazy long ago.

When he was bored, Su Yunjie counted stars at night and caught locusts during the day.

I'm just idle.

Now that he was out with Su Mengyao, Su Yunjie talked much more than when he was at home.

Su Mengyao led the way, and after about half an hour, the brother and sister arrived at the gate of the rental house.

Looking at the yard in front of him, Su Yunjie was a little surprised and asked, "Little sister, where is this? Didn't you say that your brother-in-law's family is from the countryside?"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't want to stay, just go home and don't bother me."

Su Mengyao said coldly.

But his eyes were looking into the yard through the crack in the door.

The doors and windows inside were open, but there was no sound in the room, it was very quiet.

cough cough...

Su Mengyao cleared her throat and shouted inside: "Lu Ye... Lu Ye..."

As the shouting came into the house.

A familiar figure of Su Mengyao appeared at the door.

It was not Lu Ye she was expecting, but Li Mingzhu who was washing dishes in the kitchen.

"Who is outside the door?" Su Mengyao was blocked by the courtyard gate. Li Mingzhu couldn't see anyone and asked softly.

"Pearl, it's me."

Familiar voice.

"Sister-in-law? You're back!" Li Mingzhu recognized Li Mingzhu's voice and said happily, "I'll open the door for you right away."

Li Mingzhu hurried to the gate of the courtyard, wiped her wet hands with her apron, took out the key and quickly opened the lock on the gate.

Wow...

The wooden gate of the courtyard opened, and Su Mengyao, dressed in a sky blue 'bragi', stood gracefully outside the gate.

Like a white swan, covered with rosy clouds.

"Sister-in-law, you are really back, please come in..."

After saying this, Li Mingzhu noticed the man standing next to Su Mengyao.

He was wearing a white shirt, black khaki pants, and a pair of black leather shoes that were polished to a shine.

He is only a few years older.

He was still holding Su Mengyao's suitcase in his hand. Li Mingzhu could see that this man seemed to have a very special relationship with Su Mengyao.

Su Mengyao had just left home not long ago, so why did she bring a man with her when she came back?

"Sister-in-law, who is he?" Li Mingzhu was so dazed that she even forgot to make way.

"He's my brother."

Su Mengyao asked softly, "Where's Lu Ye?"

Your brother?

Li Mingzhu was a little slow to react and made way for the door. She replied softly, "Brother Lu went out to deliver food to someone. I guess he will be back soon."

"Sister-in-law, come in quickly."

This guy......

Su Mengyao glanced at Li Mingzhu.

It's okay to be away from home...

"Hello, I'm Su Yunjie, Yaoyao's older brother. I came back with her to check her grades."

Just now, when Li Mingzhu was looking at him, he was also looking at Li Mingzhu.

After taking this look, Su Yunjie was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue.

He originally thought that his sister was already a top beauty, but he didn't expect that in this small courtyard, there was another beauty with a completely different temperament from his sister, but with the same appearance.

This made Su Yunjie stunned for a moment.

"Hello."

Su Yunjie stretched out his hand to shake hands with Li Mingzhu, but forgot that he was still holding the suitcase.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, the suitcase fell to the ground.

thump...

"Sorry, um, hehe..." Su Yunjie felt embarrassed and could only use a smile to hide his embarrassment.

"Let me help you." Li Mingzhu wanted to pick up the suitcase on the ground.

Su Yunjie hurriedly picked it up again: "No, it's heavy, I can take it."

"Then please come in." Li Mingzhu said blankly.

My sister-in-law’s elder brother is probably a fool, right?

The three of them entered the house.

Li Mingzhu hurriedly took a clean teacup and poured a glass of water for Su Mengyao: "Sister-in-law, this is the teacup you used before. It's clean and no one has used it. Have some water."

"Thank you, Mingzhu."

Su Mengyao took the teacup. She was a little thirsty after walking all the way. She drank a few sips of water and glanced at the kang cabinet intentionally or unintentionally.

The two sets of bedding were still on the cabinet, one for her and the other for Li Mingzhu.

There are only two pillows, and Lu Ye’s dirty and smelly pillow is not here.

call.......

Except for the bottles of fragrant oil and the pots of sesame seeds, everything was gone.

This place was no different from when she left, and Su Mengyao felt a lot more relieved.

"Who did Lu Ye deliver the meal to? I haven't heard that he has any other friends in the city."

Su Mengyao was a little surprised.

"It's the guy who used to sell sesame oil to Brother Lu. He was beaten up pretty badly. He has two small children at home, so Brother Lu brings them meals every day."

Li Mingzhu explained to Su Mengyao.

Selling sesame oil?

Su Yunjie, who was standing by, blinked when he heard this.

Selling things privately is speculation, isn't it? Su Mengyao never mentioned this at home.

"Sister-in-law, you haven't eaten yet, right? I'll go cook some noodles for you. Have a bite first, and then I'll buy some meat. We'll make something delicious tonight."

"Do not bother."

Su Mengyao didn't want to trouble Li Mingzhu, so she spoke hurriedly.

Gurgle...Gurgle...

Su Yunjie's stomach growled at the perfect time.

Facing his sister's cold gaze, Su Yunjie grinned awkwardly: "Just now I said I wanted to buy some food on the roadside, but you disagreed... You can't blame me for this."

"I'll cook some noodles, it'll be quick." Li Mingzhu said with a smile and ran straight to the kitchen.

"I shouldn't have brought you here."

After saying this coldly, Su Mengyao followed him out of the house.

Coming into the cabin, Su Mengyao smiled happily at the wrinkled quilt without a speck of dust.

"Mingzhu, let me help you."

······

Lu Ye gave Zhao Xiaolong some steamed buns and pickles made by Li Mingzhu, as well as some raw eggs and sugar.

A pot of hot water was boiled at Zhao Xiaolong's house, and a bowl of egg water was made for each of the three people. The sweet and fragrant egg water made Xiaohu and Xiaofeng love it very much.

It was the first time for the two children to see eggs being eaten in this way.

"Brother Ye, I feel embarrassed to bother you so much all the time."

"You're just talking nonsense to me. We're brothers. This little favor doesn't matter."

"Take good care of your injuries. When you recover, we'll have to work together again."

"Ah."
