Hao Xiaohong's body stiffened.

Tears welled up in my eyes, and my blood seemed to freeze.

She instinctively shrank behind Ge Jinzhen.

He was filled with shame and anger.

At that moment, she wished she could find a crack in the ground and disappear into it.

"What are you looking at? Get out! Get out of here!" Ge Jinzhen couldn't think of anything else. She was like a mother hen protecting her chicks, rushing to the door to chase people away.

The guests left.

Hao Xiaohong changed into her newly bought clothes, and with her head down, she and Hao Xiaohong hurriedly left the hotel.

“Daughter, let’s go home!” Ge Jinzhen said, holding her hand with heartache.

Hao Xiaohong bit her lip.

She was unwilling to accept it.

Because Zhuo Yuchen's attitude towards her was very gentle and different from others, she was sure she could become his woman!

but……

I am currently injured.

It seems unlikely that he will be able to appear in front of Zhuo Yuchen again in the short term.

Whatever!

I'll go back and heal my injuries first.

Having made up her mind, Hao Xiaohong nodded, "Okay!"

Then, step by step, she turned back and reluctantly embarked on her journey home with Ge Jinzhen.

……

On the other side, the rooster jumped onto the roof, stretched its neck, and began to crow.

This signifies the start of a new day in the countryside.

"Well……"

Her long eyelashes trembled, and Yan Niannian slowly opened her eyes, instinctively stretching and yawning.

The kang (heated brick bed) in the countryside is just too hard.

I slept very uncomfortable.

Just one night left her with aches and pains all over her body.

With a twitch at the corner of her mouth, Yan Niannian rubbed her throbbing temples in exasperation before getting off the kang (heated brick bed).

After tucking the scissors into her waistband and picking up the axe, Yan Niannian turned around, opened the door, and went out.

……

The kitchen is right outside the door.

At this time, Xiaojun's grandma got up early.

She stood on tiptoe, boiled water in a large pot, and prepared the cornmeal. She shaped it into small buns and put them on the pot to steam.

The dish was a plate of stir-fried greens.

It was green, with roots still attached, but Yan Niannian couldn't tell what kind of vegetable it was.

There was also a bowl of pickled mustard greens.

This food...

Yan Niannian couldn't help but frown.

Even a dog would probably dislike it!

Grandma Xiaojun turned her head and glared at Yan Niannian with annoyance.

In her household, if a daughter-in-law is lazy, gets up late in the morning, and doesn't serve the whole family, she will be scolded or even beaten.

"You..." Grandma Xiaojun was about to start cursing.

But when her gaze fell on the gleaming axe in Yan Niannian's hand, the wrinkles around her mouth trembled involuntarily, and she swallowed back the words of her curse.

But her being obedient doesn't mean Yan Niannian won't cause trouble.

She leaned closer, raised an eyebrow, and said in a low, cold tone, "Does your family eat this kind of stuff that even a dog wouldn't eat for breakfast?"

"You think you can get married with this? That's laughable!"

"If you can't afford to live, then don't live!"

"You...you..." Grandma Xiaojun was so angry that her body trembled.

"What do you mean, 'you'? I don't eat these. Cook the rice and eggs in the cupboard for me." Yan Niannian changed the subject.

"No!" Grandma Xiaojun's expression changed drastically.

Her voice was sharp and piercing.

She saved up the rice and eggs little by little, saving them for holidays or when she and her son were sick and had no appetite.

Yesterday, Yan Niannian ate one of her chickens as soon as she arrived.

Now she still needs to eat her rice and eggs.

Do you want to kill her?

"I'll ask you one more time, is it okay or not?"

Yan Niannian smiled coldly, leaned forward, raised the axe in front of the old lady, and deliberately waved it.

The axe was very close to the old woman's face.

It almost touched her chin, and as it passed by, it swept up a faint chill and a cold glint.

"what!"

Grandma Xiaojun was so frightened that she took a step back, and the hairs on her body stood on end. She stared wide-eyed comically.

He was terrified that the axe would hit him.

"I'll cook for you, okay?"

With a slight movement of her dry lips, Grandma Xiaojun walked to the cupboard, rinsed some white rice, and carefully put it into the small rice cooker.

Then, he reached into the basket for the eggs.

After hesitating for a moment, the old lady picked one up.

"Take some more!"

Yan Niannian stood to the side, occasionally and gently lifting the axe handle.

The old lady's body stiffened.

With a pang of heartache, I picked up another one.

Staring at her stingy appearance, Yan Niannian was speechless.

Her cool voice grew a little heavier, "Take...more!"

Grandma Xiaojun's mouth twitched in pain.

She wanted to refuse, but the thought of the axe in Yan Niannian's hand made her chicken out.

And so, he kept taking five eggs.

Yan Niannian was finally satisfied.

Five is enough; we can't eat any more.

When He Baoli and Xiao Jun arrived, they were immediately captivated by the rich aroma of rice and eggs.

Fragrant!

So fragrant!

Xiao Jun raised his hand and wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.

Then, he turned to look at Yan Niannian beside him, a hint of smugness in his heart.

Five eggs!

Yan Niannian must have asked her grandma to cook so much for him!

snort!

As long as Yan Niannian gives him all five eggs, he will forgive her and let her be his mother.

Breakfast is ready.

Yan Niannian took the white rice and boiled eggs away and went to eat them.

The three of them stared wide-eyed.

Especially when watching Yan Niannian slowly peel the egg with her fair, delicate fingers, and eat it elegantly and oblivious to everyone else.

I was both hungry and angry, and felt incredibly frustrated.

It looks like she's going to be eating alone again.

Really ignorant.

They didn't even know to give way to them.

Yan Niannian didn't even glance at the three of them, completely ignoring them.

She secretly made her own plans.

Although this place is remote, there must be a road leading out.

It seems I'll have to ask someone in the village for advice!

but……

She couldn't even leave this courtyard, so who could she ask for directions?

A touch of melancholy welled up in her heart, and before she knew it, Yan Niannian had already eaten four boiled eggs.

The shell of the fifth one had been peeled off, and she gently held it between her fingertips.

Just as Yan Niannian was about to take a bite, there was a sudden knocking sound at the courtyard gate.

He Baoli subconsciously craned his neck and glanced into the yard. "Who is it! Knocking on the door so early in the morning?"

Grandma Xiaojun was stunned for a moment.

"It must be your cousin's daughter-in-law!" After putting down the bowl and wiping her hands, the old lady hurriedly went out.

A moment later, she led in a young girl.

From the moment the girl entered the room, Yan Niannian was sizing her up.

The other person was around twenty years old, with delicate features and a head of short, uneven hair, which was aesthetically pleasing.

It's obviously been edited haphazardly by an amateur.

The girl was thin and had large eyes.

But his eyes were dull and lifeless.

The clothes she was wearing had a wide, faded hem and didn't fit her at all.

Even so, it couldn't hide the slight protrusion of her belly.

Yan Niannian narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.

The girl is pregnant.
