As promised, Mrs. Zhao would come back on Friday afternoon and go shopping early in the morning with her family's grocery book and tickets.
From the first day they moved in, aunts wearing red armbands came to inquire.
As soon as they heard that Lu Jinchuan's daughter-in-law was back, everyone came over to see her, both openly and covertly.
Ms. Zhao also has a cheerful temperament, and she has become familiar with these people in the past few days when Wen Nuan was not around.
When Wen Nuan came back, from afar, she saw Mrs. Zhao standing at the door talking to a red armband. When she saw Wen Nuan, she said, "Sister Zhao, your granddaughter is back. I'll leave first. Let's talk later."
"Who is this?" Wen Nuan asked Zhao.
"Sister Wang from the neighborhood committee is a very enthusiastic person." Ms. Zhao said, "How is the school? Are your classmates okay?"
"It's all good." Nuan Nuan handed her the schoolbag, drank another glass of water, and then smiled and told her what happened at the university these days.
However, they all reported good news but not bad news. As for Liu Wenqing, Nuan Nuan didn't mention it at all.
She doesn't deserve it.
"What's wrong with your hand?" Ms. Zhao asked Nuan Nuan nervously, "Why is it injured?"
"It's okay, I accidentally touched it." Wen Nuan said lightly, "The students are working very hard. I think I won't be able to catch up with them if I don't work harder."
Especially a few boys in the class, Wen Nuan often meets them in the library.
"Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry." Nuan Nuan said.
"Yes, I went to dig some wild vegetables with others the day before yesterday and made some vegetable dumplings," Ms. Zhao said with a smile, "and shepherd's purse. I will make dumplings tomorrow. Oh, we are going to Lu's house for dinner tomorrow, so we will make dumplings the day after tomorrow.
Eat dumplings.”
After the beginning of spring, there will be shepherd's purse in the fields.
But Wen Nuan didn't expect grandma to be so powerful and get to know the people here so quickly.
Early the next morning, the grandfather and grandson had just finished breakfast when Lu Jinnan came.
Wen Nuan has already prepared the gift for the old man. The courtyard where the old man lives is not far from Nuan Wen's house. It takes about ten minutes to walk there.
"What's wrong with your hand?" Lu Jinnan suddenly noticed the gauze wrapped in Nuan Nuan's hand.
"I accidentally scratched it at school and it's fine." Wen Nuan said with a smile.
She immediately used the medicine in the closet to stop the bleeding. She changed the dressing every day for the past few days, and the wound healed quite quickly.
"If you have anything to tell me at school," Lu Jinnan said.
When the warmth arrived, Lu Jinchuan's aunt Lu Tingfang and his wife came early in the morning.
Seeing Wen Nuan, Lu Tingfang stopped what she was doing and came out of the kitchen. She happily pulled her along and said, "It's like letting me meet someone. Your sister Yanan has been talking about you in my ears many times."
I couldn't help but ask about the injury on her hand again, and I felt relieved when I knew it was fine.
"Hello, aunt." He said hello warmly and sweetly, and greeted Mr. Lu, Xiao Zhenye and Wang Fang who came out of the kitchen one by one.
Wang Fang stared at Nuan Nuan's face as soon as she came in.
I heard before that Lu Jinchuan married a country girl as his wife, and she was often talked about by her mother when she returned to her parents' home.
She and Lu Jinnan were classmates, and many of her classmates were surprised when she finally married Lu Jinnan.
Later she found out that Lu Jinnan was not a biological child of the Lu family.
Wang Fang has a cousin who has always liked Lu Jinchuan. Wang Fang's mother often talks to her, hoping that she can bring her cousin and Lu Jinchuan together.
But Lu Jinchuan usually didn't talk much at home. She just stood up and was pushed down by Lu Jinnan.
"He will handle Jinchuan's marriage by himself, so we don't need to worry too much," Lu Jinnan said.
One sentence wiped out all Wang Fang's thoughts.
Originally, Wang Fang thought that Lu Jinchuan would definitely marry a lady from a famous family because of his status as a member of the Lu family.
Even worse, Lu Yanhong made a verbal engagement with the Gu family back then. Although the girl is gone, didn't the second wife of the Gu family always want to match his girl with Lu Jinchuan?
Who knew that Lu Jinchuan suddenly called and told him that he was getting married.
Moreover, she married a local village girl.
Wang Fang's family also has relatives in the countryside. When she was a child, visiting relatives in the countryside was a disaster. Everyone looked at her like wolves and tigers, and they rushed to eat the things they brought there.
The girls don't even have any decent clothes, and some families even only have one pair of pants, and every day they rotate who wears pants when going out.
Therefore, Wang Fang instinctively labeled warmth in her heart.
But today, when she saw Nuan Nuan coming in, she was stunned.
Is this...really from the countryside?
Her skin is better than hers, and her appearance is prettier than hers.
Also, my figure is there where I should be, and I am thin where I should be thin.
Although the clothes he wore were very ordinary, they made his whole person look very elegant.
Wang Fang felt a little sad.
Originally, she had been worried ever since she found out that her man was not a biological child of the Lu family, fearing that he would lose his status in the Lu family. When she learned that Lu Jinchuan had married a rural girl, she felt a little relieved.
But now, she is so beautiful and studies well, so no wonder she is attracted by Lu Jinchuan.
Wen Nuan was also stunned. She never thought that Lu Jinnan's wife was the person she met in the drugstore that day who asked about the price of ginseng.
Thinking of the price the old shopkeeper quoted her at that time, Wen Nuan felt confident.
"Is the meal ready?" Lu Jinnan pulled Wang Fang's sleeve, "When can the meal be served?"
Today's meals were all cooked by Wang Fang herself.
"Oh, I'm going to cook now." Wang Fang hurriedly turned around and went to the kitchen.
When Lu Jinnan went to pick up people just now, she had already prepared all the ingredients, and now she just needs to stir-fry them.
"When will Sister Yanan come back?" Wen Nuan was thinking about Xiao Yanan and sat down to ask Lu Tingfang.
"Originally, I was supposed to come back after the Chinese New Year, but their old lady's foot was sprained," Lu Tingfang said with a faint smile, "They still have to wait a few more days."
"Sister Yanan's prenatal check-up time is coming soon, isn't it?" Nuan Nuan thought of the gossip she heard in her previous life.
Xiao Yanan's mother-in-law is not inferior to Feng Xiulian at all.
She is still pregnant. If something happens, I heard that the place is more remote than their Sancha Village, and Wen Nuan is afraid to think about it.
"I wanted to take her back, but your uncle refused to let her go." Lu Tingfang complained, "If she were a normal person, then her mother-in-law, as a daughter-in-law, should be there to take care of her when she is sick."
But the problem is that Xiao Yanan is pregnant and she needs someone to take care of her. How can she still take care of others?
"But we have to do prenatal check-ups." Wen Nuan said with a sigh.
"Prenatal check-up?" Wang Fang happened to come out with the dishes and heard her smile and said, "There are very few people here who go for prenatal check-ups, right? You know a lot about warmth."
Wen Nuan smiled and said, "It's always safe to check."
I don’t know if it’s because of the spiritual chef that her senses are very sensitive, especially to the kindness or hostility emanating from people.
Just now she thought she was wrong, but now after hearing Wang Fang's words, Nuan Nuan was sure that this sister-in-law was hostile to her.
I just don’t know where this hostility comes from?
"It's time to check up," Lu Tingfang clapped her warm hands and said to the two of them, "When you get pregnant in the future, you must also check up on time."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Nuan saw that Wang Fang's face looked very bad.
"Let's have dinner." Lu Jinnan said.
Mr. Lu smiled and invited people to sit down, "I heard from Jinchuan that your cooking is delicious?"
"My grandfather used to be a chef, and I loved cooking when I was a child." Wen Nuan said with a smile.
"Then try it, your sister-in-law's cooking is pretty good too." The old man said with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law." Wen Nuan said to Wang Fang.
"It's not hard, I also like cooking." Wang Fang also smiled.
Lu Jinnan glanced at her.
After taking a bite of the food, my brows furrowed.
