章節 26: 11. Yue Yan Is Injured (3)
編輯: Henyee Translations
"No, only Little Black is at home."
Yue Yan left her bicycle at home and brought Little Black and her homework to Zhou Boyan's house.
"Anyway, that's it. These two people are like lunatics." She told the truth. She even mentioned their names. If Zhou Boyan met the female main character in the future, he would definitely not be fooled by her appearance.
"They're too much! How can they pretend to be victims when they're ganging up on you?" Zhou Boyan was very angry. He knew that Cao Wenkai and Su Yu were the male and female protagonists, so he was already prepared to fight them head-on.
However, Yue Yan was bullied when she wasn't friends with the female main character.
"Don't be angry. Actually, I've taken revenge. What I said was very unpleasant. Cao Wenkai and Su Yu's fragile hearts will probably be greatly hurt."
She said he was a bootlicker and attacked her appearance. Sometimes, her words could also be a sharp blade. Yue Yan did it on purpose.
"But your arm is so badly injured. You still suffered."
Yue Yan waved her hand. "It looks serious, but it's just a scratch. It's fine."
However, she would either have to ride to school in her school uniform or wake up early to take the public bus. She really hated the male and female protagonists.
Yue Yan lamented. "I really didn't expect Su Yu to want to be friends with me and even ask me to send her home. Do I look like a stupid person?"
Zhou Boyan shook his head. "You look like a girl who's easy to bully."
"Why don't I draw a tattoo on my arm to scare them?"
Zhou Boyan said, "It's not pretty."
Yue Yan buried her head in her homework obediently.
Before she left, Yue Yan reminded him, "Don't tell my parents that I'm injured, lest they worry."
"Alright, I'll keep it a secret for you."
Zhou Boyan meant what he said. It was not until Yue Yan's wound scabbed over that her family found out that she had been injured. Of course, this was a matter for the future.
Saturday was the Yue Family's housewarming banquet. Yue Yan's maternal grandmother's entire family came. As her paternal grandmother's family was far away from the countryside, her father wrote a letter for them to take the time to come over. He even sent them 50 yuan.
Yue Huaide already knew simple words. He could barely complete the letter independently with a dictionary.
The Yue Family bought a lot of vegetables today, but the three aunts who came to the kitchen to help out were all dumbfounded.
After the vegetables were washed and cut, they were actually skewered?
Yue Huaide and Yue Yan sounded very serious, so the aunts could only do as they were asked.
Only the Malatang that was skewered had a soul. Because they bought a lot of ingredients, it took them two hours to finish skewering all of them.
Next, it was Yue Huaide's home ground.
He had learned how to mix ingredients together from his daughter many times and was already familiar with them.
Her grandmother and uncles were munching on melon seeds in the living room. Yue Yan carried Little Black home.
"I've already invited Brother Xiaofei's family. They'll come over later."
Wen Hongyu pulled Yue Yan to sit down. "Yueyue is still the sensible one. It's not an exaggeration to say that Yueyue bought this house for us."
Her uncle's eldest son looked at Yue Yan enviously. His cousin was simply too amazing.
He was three years older than Yue Yan, but he had never been familiar with her. Previously, Yue Yan had always stayed in her room and did not come out to play with them. He did not expect his cousin to hide her abilities.
Wen Hongyu's face was flushed. "If I have a son in the future, this house will definitely be left for Yueyue."
Everyone was silent for a few seconds before saying that it was only right. Yue Yan was the one who earned money to buy the house. With Yue Yan's future prospects, she might be able to earn a lot of money in the future. They should let Yue Huaide earn money to buy a house for their son.
Zhou Boyan came with his grandparents. It was obvious that the things he was carrying were not cheap.
"My grandfather chose these tonics to nourish Auntie's body. Yueyue has to nourish yourself too because you're so thin."
Yue Yan accepted it with a smile. "You've spent a lot. When will your family hold a housewarming banquet?"
"It might be the New Year. We'll talk about it when my parents come home. Otherwise, it won't be lively."
Yue Yan said, "That's true. I'll go to your house to freeload then."
Grandma Zhou and Grandpa Zhou sat down. Initially, they were a little restrained because they were not familiar with the others. After knowing that Grandpa Zhou was an old Chinese doctor, everyone started chatting again.
Especially Eldest Aunt. Her stomach was getting bigger and bigger. Grandpa Zhou suggested that she go to their hospital to give birth. Their hospital had a gynecologist who could handle all kinds of fetal positions.
Eldest Aunt was extremely grateful. Actually, she was also afraid. One was most afraid of accidents with twins.
"It's time to eat. Everyone, move to the dining table."
Yue Huaide carried out a big metal bucket first. It was filled with bingfen.
Then, there was a row of small bowls filled with various side ingredients.
Lastly, there were a few small stoves. Every one of them had a large enamel wash basin. It was filled with bright red chili oil soup, and lastly, there was clear soup.
Yue Huaide said, "Everyone, find a place to sit. This thing is for you to eat…"
Zhou Boyan explained to his grandfather in a low voice, "The bingfen in that bucket is very cooling."
Seeing that her relatives did not know how to eat, Yue Yan stood up and taught them again. "Look, just like this. Take out your favorite dishes from the basin. Place the skewers on the table after eating them. The red oil is spicy, and the white one is clear soup."
She scooped another bowl of bingfen. "This is bingfen. The side ingredients are beside it. Add whatever you want to eat."
Zhou Boyan was the first to stand up. He followed Yue Yan and scooped a bowl of bingfen, adding side ingredients one by one.
Yue Yan gave the first bowl to her grandma and the second bowl to Grandma Zhou.
Zhou Boyan gave a bowl to Grandpa Zhou.
Grandpa Zhou could taste the herbs at the first bite.
"This is made of apple of Peru, right?"
Yue Yan smiled. "Yes, the bingfen seeds are made from apple of Peru."
Grandpa Zhou smiled and said, "Impressive, young lady. Are you interested in learning Chinese medicine from me?"
Yue Yan hurriedly shook her head. "No, no. I don't know much about medicinal herbs. I only studied more about this because it can be made into food." There were too many books that medical students had to memorize.
Zhou Boyan interrupted his grandfather. "Grandpa, this is Malatang. It's very delicious."
"It tastes good. I've never eaten such delicious food." As he spoke, he took a skewer himself. He didn't need Zhou Boyan to help him.
It was the same for her grandmother's family. Her uncles were sweating profusely from eating. Yue Yan hurriedly brought over an electric fan and turned it on.
Little Black and Big Black wandered under the feet of the adults, but they couldn't get a bite of food from the humans. What were these humans eating?
Eldest Uncle said in a rough voice, "Brother-in-law, this thing is delicious. Your business will definitely be popular!"
Third Uncle was more elegant. His forehead and nose were covered in sweat. "Yes, it will definitely sell well."
Second Uncle was eating crazily in silence and did not have time to speak at all.
