After Ye Jingmo cleaned up the mud in the backyard and returned to the house, Jiang Li was nowhere to be seen.
His face darkened.
Ye Jingmo walked to the front hall and found Pudding squatting in front of the door. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was indeed Jiang Li cleaning the mud in the front yard.
Jiang Li turned around and saw Ye Jingmo, her face full of surprise.
"Brother Mo, let me tell you, there was just a mouse the size of a cat..."
After hearing what Jiang Li said, Ye Jingmo's already gloomy face turned even darker.
Jiang Li observed Ye Jingmo's expression, and her tone gradually softened from its initial lightness until it fell silent.
Ye Jingmo took two deep breaths and slowly exhaled, calming his turbulent emotions upon hearing that Jiang Li was in danger.
He solemnly placed his hands on Jiang Li's shoulders.
"Lili, promise me that if you encounter such danger in the future, you will first avoid it and ensure your own safety."
You are not fighting alone; you have me. You can come to me to face the danger together.
Have you ever thought about what would happen to you if there were another mouse?
You are my only family in the world, I can't lose you.
The second time Jiang Li saw Ye Jingmo with reddened eyes was the first time when Ye's grandmother passed away.
Jiang Li lowered her head with a hint of guilt; she had indeed been reckless this time.
She could have called Ye Jingmo to come and investigate when Pudding warned her.
"Alright, let's leave this matter here. I have one last thing to say."
Jiang Li looked up at Ye Jingmo's dark pupils with curiosity in her eyes. She didn't know what else Ye Jingmo was going to say.
"Lili, you're amazing. You're ready to graduate from your training."
Jiang Li felt her face burning hot, so she quickly pressed her cool hands to her face.
"Brother Mo, I'm embarrassed by your praise."
Jiang Li, who was buried in his palm, spoke in a muffled voice.
Ye Jingmo smiled indulgently and gently flicked her forehead with his finger.
She's still such a young girl, yet she's so shy.
Ye Jingmo thought to himself helplessly.
Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo cleaned up the mud in the front yard together.
It was already noon, and the sun was high in the sky.
The wastewater from cleaning the house was used to rinse the backyard, but it wasn't enough to clean the front yard.
Fortunately, the front yard is mainly characterized by its large land area.
Jiang Li plans to clean the front yard properly when it rains.
Jiang Li filled the water purifier in the bathroom and took a hot shower.
Previously, when staying in hotels, there were no such facilities, and Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo didn't want to attract attention by being too clean, so they would just wipe it down with water.
Now that she's back on her own turf, Jiang Li can finally take a proper shower.
After scrubbing off the black grime from her body, Jiang Li felt much lighter when she walked out of the bathroom.
"Brother Mo, you should go take a shower."
Jiang Li walked to Ye Jingmo's side, and a fresh scent of soap entered Ye Jingmo's nose.
"I'll wash Pudding first."
Pudding hasn't been very clean lately, having been traveling around a lot.
Its fur was dark, and it didn't look particularly dirty.
Upon hearing the word "bath," Pudding's ears perked up, and she immediately ran to Ye Jingmo's side, her eyes full of anticipation.
Jiang Li took out Pudding's toiletries, and Ye Jingmo took Pudding to the bathroom.
After a while, a dog that had fallen into the water appeared, its body dripping wet and its fur sticking to its body.
The pudding was visibly smaller.
Jiang Li quickly stepped forward and used a towel to dry the water droplets off Pudding's body.
Having just returned and not yet having installed the solar panels upstairs, Jiang Li could only take out the diesel generator to supply power to the villa.
Use a high-powered hairdryer to dry Pudding's wet fur.
After Pudding's fur dried, Jiang Li looked at the dog hair that had fallen onto her hair, clothes, and the floor, and helplessly rubbed her forehead and smiled bitterly.
Sure enough, the dog sheds twice a year, each time for six months.
Jiang Li resignedly swept up the dog hair on the floor, her stomach rumbling with hunger.
This is the first meal back in our new home, so we need to prepare a hearty meal.
How about we have hot pot?
The thought flashed through Jiang Li's mind: the weather was still relatively cool, so eating hot pot wouldn't be too hot.
Jiang Li found the induction cooker and poured in the hot pot base she had bought earlier.
She laid out all the essential hot pot ingredients, such as tripe, duck intestines, pig's blood, and meatballs, on the table.
When Ye Jingmo came out of the shower, he saw a huge pile of dishes on the table.
As soon as Jiang Li saw Ye Jingmo come out, she smiled broadly at him.
"Brother Mo, let's have hot pot later. This is our first meal back from moving, so we should have a good meal."
The steam from the hot pot rises into the air, and an enticing aroma wafts through the air.
Jiang Li closed the doors and windows beforehand, afraid that the smell would spread outside.
Jiang Li picked up a piece of tripe and put it into the pot, silently counting down the seconds.
Dip it in the generous amount of sesame sauce in the small dish, and the first taste is the sweet aroma of sesame sauce, followed by the crisp and tender texture of the tripe.
Jiang Li breathed out, it was so hot, she fanned her mouth with her palm.
Seeing this, Ye Jingmo poured her a glass of orange juice.
Jiang Li also brought out the orange juice. According to her, it would be a shame to eat hot pot without a drink.
"Eat slowly, it's like I'm not eating enough for you."
Jiang Li shook her head and blinked her watery eyes.
"It's different. Hot pot should be eaten while it's hot; that's when it has its soul."
"Okay, you have a lot of fallacies."
Pudding buried its head in the ground, eating its dog food.
Jiang Li even specially opened two cans of dog food for it so that it could have a more substantial meal.
Jiang Li ate her hot pot meal to her heart's content.
Touching her round, bulging belly, Jiang Li felt a long-lost sense of fullness, which made her feel happy.
Many people outside are still not getting enough to eat.
This hot pot meal is definitely something many people crave.
Ye Jingmo told Jiang Li to rest while he went to wash the dishes.
Jiang Li turned off the diesel generator and put it back into the space.
Although the villa has excellent soundproofing, the noise from the generator running for extended periods can still be quite noticeable.
Jiang Li planned to rest for a while before going up to the roof to install the solar panels.
This makes it easier to supply electricity to the home.
The third-floor rooms also need to have scaffolding set up, and the plan to grow crops needs to be put on the agenda.
This is to ensure a food supply in the future.
The guinea pigs also need to be moved upstairs.
Jiang Li shuddered; she finally remembered something she had forgotten.
She forgot to take out Little Black and Little White.
Jiang Li rushed to the luggage area and opened the bag containing the guinea pig.
The two guinea pigs were completely unaware of what was happening outside, and were adorably munching on grass.
Occasionally, because of the ownership of the grass, Xiaobai will scratch Xiaohei, and Xiaohei will hide to the side, feeling wronged, and dare not do anything to Xiaobai.
"We're getting you bigger cages soon, are you happy?"
Jiang Li stroked Xiao Hei's fur from outside the cage, but Xiao Hei, who was munching on grass, didn't even glance at Jiang Li.
On the contrary, Xiao Bai, who was standing to the side, stopped eating when she saw Jiang Li and made gurgling sounds, as if she was greeting Jiang Li.
Jiang Li, her hands still damp with dew, gently touched Little White.
