“Well,” Zhao Zhan suddenly raised his right hand, which had been hanging by his side, and spoke, “The roast pork trotters and ribs seem to be cold. Shall I go and heat them up for you?”

“Zhao Zhan!”

Yue Jiaojiao’s eyes widened, and she angrily grabbed the pillow next to her and threw it over. “You’ve read the book for nothing! Get out!”

Zhao Zhan left the room in a hurry.

The more Yue Jiaojiao thought about it, the angrier she got. Walking barefoot to the door, she saw Zhao Zhan standing obediently by the door, not moving an inch.

When he saw her pop out, he immediately turned his head and looked at her pitifully.

Yue Jiaojiao laughed coldly and slammed the door in his face. “You can sleep in the study tonight!”

He had the silly look of a gentleman, which made it seem like he was doing something wrong.

She had clearly been seduced by Zhao Zhan, alright?

Zhao Zhan, who had been chased into the study, looked at the food in his hands with a puzzled expression.

Could it be that she was unhappy because the food was cold?

Zhao Zhan could not sleep well on the hard couch in the study all night. No matter how he racked his brains, he could not understand why his sweetheart would suddenly lose her temper at the very last second. He had never seen it before.

Yue Jiaojiao only woke up at noon the next day.

She was awoken by the fragrance in the courtyard.

Chengfeng was anxiously scratching the door of her room. Yue Jiaojiao put on her clothes and opened the door. She squatted down and held Chengfeng in her arms. “You hungry?”

“Jiaojiao.” Zhao Zhan walked out of the kitchen and looked at Yue Jiaojiao with an uneasy expression. “I’ve got the water for you. I’ve also prepared food for you. I went to the shop this morning to make a new set of grilled pork trotters and ribs. I kept them warm this time. I also made spicy chicken, steamed egg custard, stir-fried vegetables, porridge, and pancakes. What do you want to eat?”

Yue Jiaojiao was no longer angry after last night’s incident.

From another perspective, Zhao Zhan’s actions were proof of his love for her. However, she still couldn’t help but say that this rough man was really st*pid.

Reckless and silly!

Seeing that she was still silent, Zhao Zhan hurriedly passed her a toothbrush and water. “I’ve dipped the salt for you. Do you want a hot towel?”

“Zhao Zhan.” Yue Jiaojiao reached out and took it. She sat on a small bench in the courtyard and brushed her teeth. “I’m hungry. I want to eat all the food you just said.”

“I’ll take them out now.”

Yue Jiaojiao was very full after the meal.

“I’m planning to go back to the village today,” Zhao Zhan said as he cleaned up the dishes and knelt down beside her. I want to take a look at the seedlings in the field. Some of them are too dense and need to be plucked out. Lichang has allocated an acre of land to plant them with me.”

“I’ll go with you. There are not many shops in this town. I don’t want to shop anymore. It’s boring to stay at home.”

The liveliest place in Willow Village had now become the area around Zhao Zhan’s house.

In the village, other than Kuazi and Liu Xiaowan’s families, the other capable men had all gone to help build the house. The women who stayed at home were given copper coins every day, and they could eat meat for dinner. Even their mood was much better.

“Zhao Zhan is back? Jiaojiao also came today. Do you want to come to my house? Once the foundation is done, it’ll finish really quickly. It’s only been a short while and you can already see that it’s a grand house.”

Liu Xiaowan stood at the back of the crowd and looked at Yue Jiaojiao, who was being carried on Zhao Zhan’s back, with a face full of jealousy.

How could she have such a good life?
