Bab 293: Harvesting Sweet Potatoes

After Shen Yan settled Lu Shan, he stood up and pointed at Guan Lei, "Come with me. We'll work on the fields."

Guan Lei quickly got up with his tools, ready to work in the fields with Shen Yan.

Shen Xi was about to follow them when both Shen Yan and Guan Lei spoke in unison, "Xixi, sit down."

"Dad, Guan Lei's a guest," Shen Xi reminded tactfully, "It isn't right to expect him to man the fields. Let me go instead."

Before Shen Yan could express his displeasure at the idea, Guan Lei reacted in his stead. How could Shen Xi treat him as an outsider or a guest?

"Auntie and I hit it off well," Guan Lei said angrily, "She wouldn't treat me like an outsider, would she?"

Lu Shan was quite pleased with Guan Lei's well-behaved disposition, and she nodded. "That's right. Guan Lei isn't a guest; he's family."
