108 Chapter 107, Letter
Seeing Ji Zixuan’s nervous expression, Ji Yuanyuan quickly found an excuse, “I saw mom use sugar as salt just now, so I wanted to add some salt.”
Ji Zixuan frowned and said sternly, “Come back, I’ll do it!”
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan awkwardly returned to the living room.
Ji Zixuan scooped some salt with a spoon and put it into the ca.s.serole.
After doing all this, Ji Zixuan simply took the books into the living room. He read while keeping an eye on Ji Yuanyuan.
Li Xu returned at around nine o’clock.
Her forehead was covered in sweat. When she returned home and saw the three children sitting obediently on the sofa in the living room, she heaved a sigh of relief.
She went to the kitchen and took out the thermos bucket. Just as she was about to pour all the soup in the ca.s.serole into the thermos bucket, Ji Yuanyuan ran to her side and tugged at the corner of her clothes.
Li Xu looked over with a strange expression. Ji Yuanyuan waved at Li Xu. After Li Xu squatted down, she whispered her plan into Li Xu’s ear.
Li Xu was a little surprised when she heard that.
Then, she took out a slotted spoon and scooped out a piece of meat. She placed it in a bowl and gave it to Ji Yuanyuan.
The bowl disappeared as soon as she placed it in her hand.
Li Xu looked outside nervously. Fortunately, her two sons did not notice the situation here.
Only then did Li Xu push the soup into the thermos bucket. Then, she placed the thermos bucket on the coffee table.
“Auntie Qin will come to pick you up later. Don’t forget to bring the thermos bucket. Be obedient after you go there. If there’s anything, call me, understand?” Li Xu reminded them carefully.
“Got it!” The three children said almost in unison.
Not long after Li Xu left, Qin Xiaomin came over.
Ji Zixuan carried the thermos and brought his younger siblings to follow Qin Xiaomin to the Qin’s residence.
The three boys had quite a common topic and were having a good time. Ji Yuanyuan was not interested in this, so she simply watched TV downstairs with Qin Junshan while she watched Qin Junshan finish the soup.
Qin Mucheng could not stay upstairs for long. He would come down every once in a while and find all kinds of excuses to talk to Ji Yuanyuan.
In the end, he annoyed Qin Junshan so much that he could not stand it anymore, “Why don’t you stay here and not go up!”
When Qin Mucheng heard this, he really sat down on the sofa.
Qin Junshan smiled, “You, little guy, you encouraged me to settle down here just to see Yuanyuan, right?”
Hearing this, Ji Yuanyuan asked in surprise, “Grandpa Qin, are you going to stay here forever?”
“After my grandpa came here, he felt much better, so I want him to stay here forever!” Qin Mucheng explained.
Qin Junshan stroked Ji Yuanyuan’s head, thinking about something.
He did feel better after coming here for a few days than when he was in B City. In the past, he would wake up three or four times at night as his chest felt suffocated.
As he got older, his organs were no longer working properly. There was nothing wrong with his body, except that he felt unwell.
However, for some reason, the number of times he woke up at night decreased. He only woke up once last night.
However, his son and grandson were all in B city. There was no point for him to stay here alone. Perhaps it was because he was in a good mood these few days that his health had improved.
“We’ll talk about this later. We’ll have to discuss it with your father first,” Qin Junshan said perfunctorily.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at his expression and seemed to be deep in thought.
It must be that the effect of the spirit spring water was not obvious, which was why Grandpa Qin hesitated.
She had decided that she would definitely come over every day to send it to him!
…
When she returned home at night, there was already a set of kitchen utensils for cooking soup and a gas tank in the house.
Li Xu and Ji Yuanyuan put all these things into the s.p.a.ce.
Along the way, they went to take a look at the piece of meat that they put in the morning. It didn’t seem to have changed much.
The next day, before seven o’clock, Ji Yuanyuan got up.
The first thing she did when she woke up was to look at the piece of meat in her s.p.a.ce!
It was still in the bowl. Although it was already cold, its color and l.u.s.ter were fresh. Ji Yuanyuan took a bite and the taste was no different from the one that had just been cooked.
It seemed that her s.p.a.ce was indeed a natural preservation warehouse. Things would not go bad once they were put in.
Of course, it would not go bad for a short period of time. However, Ji Yuanyuan did not know if it would go bad after ten or twenty years. This question needed to be verified.
Ji Yuanyuan came out of the s.p.a.ce and woke Li Xu Up. After hearing the news, Li Xu was also very happy.
If that was the case, they did not need to buy a refrigerator. They could just put the items directly into the s.p.a.ce.
Thinking of this, Li Xu immediately got out of bed and brought Ji Yuanyuan to the market.
Li Xu had the intention of making a big purchase. When she went, she rode the small tricycle downstairs.
First, she wrapped up all the bones in the meat stall. She spent more than fifty Yuan and bought some fish and prawns. They were still alive and kicking.
These things took up half of the small tricycle. Li Xu was still not satisfied, so she went to buy some lean meat and streaky pork.
She was so busy now that she did not have time to go to the market to buy them. She wished she could buy all the food for the next year and store them in the s.p.a.ce.
When she returned home after shopping, Li Xu put all these things into the s.p.a.ce. She didn’t come out, instead, she boiled soup in the s.p.a.ce.
While she was boiling the soup, Li Xu asked curiously, “Yuanyuan, why are you so good to Grandpa Qin?”
She had always felt that it was very strange. Yuanyuan seemed to be especially kind to the Qin family members.
Now that she knew that Uncle Qin’s health was not good, she put in a lot of effort to nourish his body.
What was the reason?
When Ji Yuanyuan heard Li Xu’s words, she was shocked. Could it be that she had gone too far and let Li Xu See through her flaws?
Naturally, she could not tell the truth. If Li Xu knew that she had been reborn and that she had suffered so much in the past, she might be heartbroken and kill Shen Lingxue and Shen Mei.
She hesitated for a moment before saying in a low voice, “Grandpa Qin is very good to me!”
Li Xu was actually just asking casually and did not take it seriously.
After boiling the soup, it was only less than eight o’clock when she came out of the s.p.a.ce.
Li Xu placed the soup in the thermal tub before she went to the shop.
Ever since that day, Ji Yuanyuan had been delivering soup to Qin Junshan every day. Ji Yuanyuan already knew the way, and the distance was not far, so she was accompanied by her two older brothers every day.
In the blink of an eye, it was middle-late August.
That day, the store received a call from Li Miao.
Her voice had a sobbing tone, and the moment she opened her mouth, she said, “Big Sis, I pa.s.sed the exam. I received the admission letter!”
Although this was already within expectations, when the admission letter was really received, not only Li Miao, but the entire Li family was extremely excited.
This was the first university student in the Li family and even the entire village.
After hanging up the phone, Li Xu hung up the business suspension sign and brought the children home.
Her younger sister was admitted to the university, so the family had to hold a banquet. She had to go back and help.
