Chapter 234: Happy Sister

At Qian Shan's great-aunt's residence, all the strenuous tasks fell solely upon his great-aunt's daughter-in-law.

The onset of winter was still some time away, and the available firewood at home proved insufficient to kindle the fires.

Qian Shanmin extended his offer to assist his Third Aunt-in-law in the task of chopping firewood up in the mountains.

This act of aid persisted over numerous days.

However, upon learning that Su Lan and her family were preparing to journey to the nearby town, Qian Shanmin hastened his return to the village.

That very evening, he openly ventured to Su Bin's household.

His intent wasn't necessarily to rekindle a relationship with Su Lan. His aspiration was more rooted in reconnecting with her, allowing thoughts to linger about the prospect of future encounters.

Desiring to present a gift to Su Lan, he discovered her absence in the room.
