Chapter 237: Chapter 235: Winter Preparation, Bookstore Trivia
Liu Sisi couldn’t help but laugh too!
In the past, Di Yelei often went hunting, but she never gave it much thought. It was only after he got injured recently and suddenly couldn’t go hunting that she realized how much this man had been quietly doing, and how many hardships he had taken on for her and their children.
Even when he’s injured and in pain, he is still doing his best to create a warm home for Liu Sisi and their children.
“Ye Lei, your health is more important. Stay at home and rest for a while, don’t tire yourself out,” Liu Sisi trembled as she spoke.
“Don’t worry! I know my limits, and I won’t overexert myself.”
His hands were skillfully skinning and slaughtering the prey, never once faltering, but he was quietly contemplating in his mind.
The Frost Descent had passed, and the Start of Winter was approaching.
As the days got colder, the income from the bookstore was sustaining their household expenses, but it was ultimately unstable and could disappear at any time.
Without enough meat to eat during the long winter nights, how would they survive the winter?
Moreover, the engagement banquet for Ying Er and Yun Er would consume a lot of food as well. He needed to prepare more while it had not started snowing yet. Once there was heavy snow blocking the mountains, how could they still go in?
Considering all this, he still needed to dig more traps and try his best to hunt more food. As for the Gan Family, it was also time to end his leave and get back to work…
The reason Di Yelei was concerned about working for the Gan Family was naturally related to the two visits from Gan Miaoruo.
Gan Miaoruo came early in the morning on both occasions and didn’t leave until dusk.
Apart from two maids, she was accompanied by Zuo Xingyu!
Every time Gan Miaoruo came, she studied diligently with Xuan’er and listened to Liu Sisi’s explanations.
Di Yelei would then chat leisurely with Zuo Xingyu. It was unclear what the two men had to talk about so much!
Whenever Gan Miaoruo left, both of them would seem reluctant to part.
The sight of this stirred Liu Sisi’s heart greatly! Zuo Xingyu was such a difficult person to read!
It was better to stay away from him!
However, she couldn’t find the courage to say it, and the hints she gave to Di Yelei were dismissed casually. He would agree to her suggestions at the time, but still chat casually with Zuo Xingyu the next time they met, completely oblivious to what Liu Sisi had meant.
When Zuo Xingyu saw Liu Sisi, his expression didn’t change, as cold and indifferent as ever.
Because of this, Liu Sisi couldn’t bring herself to say what she wanted to.
As the days grew shorter and colder
One early morning, Di Family had an early breakfast and waited at the roadside.
Liu Sisi arranged with the driver, Little Wang, to take them to the foot of the mountain and happily go to the market while also stopping by the Gan Mansion.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the bookstore, everyone got off the bull-cart and brought Xuan’er and Ying’er inside.
“Third Uncle, Third Aunt!”
Di Cheng and the others, who were cleaning inside the house, hurriedly greeted them with smiles on their faces.
“Second Cousin!”
