Aunt Gu later found out that Jiang Ning was taking Tongtong to school by bike these days.

So she has been busy in the countryside until today before rushing back.

Now that I see my girl staying by Jiang Ning's side obediently, I feel pretty good for a while.

Ever since she rented a house to Jiang Ning, she had felt that the child was honest and polite, but his body seemed a little weak. Who would have thought that after not seeing him for a few days, he would actually look better and his face would become more energetic.

"Jiang Ning, wait a moment, there is still one dish left to fry." She told Tongtong yesterday, asking her to call Jiang Ning to come for dinner.

Jiang Ning did not refuse and said politely, "Sorry to trouble you, auntie."

"No trouble, no trouble."

Xue Yuantong watched the two people chatting and interjected:

"Mom, stop talking and go cook. I'm starving."

Aunt Gu glared at Xue Yuantong. Xue Yuantong was not afraid at all. She pulled Jiang Ning to wash her hands. Then she pulled Jiang Ning to the main room and sat down on the pony next to the folding table.

Xue Yuantong cut a plate of watermelon and sat at the dinner table chatting with Jiang Ning.

"It's so cool? Have you noticed?" Xue Yuantong asked strangely.

Jiang Ning nodded: "It's indeed cool."

He activated his spiritual power to cool down the surroundings. He would not be stingy with that bit of spiritual power for Xue Yuantong. He liked this quirky girl who laughed all day long.

"Hmm, maybe it's because of the shade of the trees." Xue Yuantong thought.

There are many trees planted near this row of bungalows, which provide shade and keep the temperature of the bungalows from rising so high. Although the summer is still hot, you can still get through it with a fan.

Her living conditions are average, and only her mother can make money. Installing an air conditioner these days costs thousands, and the electricity bill is expensive, so her home has no air conditioner, and every summer is over.

Jiang Ning smiled. It was indeed not too hot these days. It was not like a certain year in later generations when the country was heating up. In the summer, the air conditioner was unbearable and the air conditioner had to be turned on all night to fall asleep.

"It's super cool!" Xue Yuantong took a bite of the watermelon and shook the orange bottle. Just when she was about to twist the lid, Jiang Ning said, "I'll do it."

"No, I can." Xue Yuantong twisted it hard and opened it.

He said proudly: "I'm a female man, it's just a bottle cap, it's not easy."

"Awesome." Jiang Ning praised her kindly, as if praising a child.

Xue Yuantong snorted: "Eat melons, eat melons. My mother brought them back from the countryside. My grandfather found the seeds and grew the melons himself. They are very sweet. I will grab two for you to eat later."

As she said that, she looked at Jiang Ning expectantly, hoping that he would taste it.

Jiang Ning took a bite and found that it was indeed very sweet. It was slightly better than the melons sold on the street. Although he had eaten various rare spiritual fruits in the world of immortality, he still ate it happily and ate it in front of Xue Yuantong. Several pieces.

Whether something tastes good or not sometimes depends more on who you eat it with.

Jiang Ning is a left-behind child. Her parents only come back during the New Year holidays, and then stay for less than twenty days before going to work in coastal areas.

He was left alone at home. His grandparents died early and he usually bought three meals a day. He was relatively safe in the village. Some neighbors and relatives looked after him from time to time.

Jiang Ning used to resent his parents, but as he grew up, he gradually understood.

Hui Province is backward. If they stay in their hometown, people with little education like their parents will have to either farm, earning less than 10,000 yuan a year, or go into business.

Because wages in local factories are not high, far worse than in coastal areas, if we go there, two people can have 70,000 to 80,000 yuan left over a year, and they can buy a house and a car for their children in the future.

Therefore, most of the adult men in Jiang Ning's village went to work outside. Many of the same age as Jiang Ning had not even finished junior high school, so they followed their parents to other places.

Jiang Ning has been living a life of eating alone for these years. Later, after graduating from college and wandering in the society, he also ate alone. To be honest, it was very boring.

He prefers to eat with his family and chat about family matters while eating. However, such opportunities are rare. Living in society, he always cannot help himself.

Now he is sitting at Xue Yuantong's house, chatting and eating with Xue Yuantong. He has not had this relaxing feeling for a long time. Although he was at his uncle's house a few days ago, he always feels that there is an invisible barrier with his uncle's family.

Although he did many times better in this life than in his previous life, those memories will always be buried deep in his heart. Although immortal cultivators have almost immortal methods, they are still human after all.

On the contrary, he felt extremely relaxed now when he was with Xue Yuantong.

"It's delicious," he said.

Xue Yuantong smiled brightly, and when Jiang Ning praised her melons, she felt her bones stretch.

Here Aunt Gu came over with a pot, the aroma filled the air and made people salivate.

Xue Yuantong stood up and pinched his waist with his hands, excitedly introducing to Jiang Ning:

"Look, this is a chicken that my mother brought from the village. It's fresh chicken and cooked with dried beans. It's cooked in a firewood-fired earthen pot. When my mother sweats from the heat, you can tell how good this chicken is. have eaten!"

"Wait a minute, there will be some dough pancakes dipped in soup. Don't mention the taste. I guarantee you will want to come to my house every day after one bite!"

"You're in a good mood today hahaha."

Aunt Gu gave her girl an ugly look and couldn't figure out how she gave birth to such a fool.

Jiang Ning took the pot and placed it on the table. At the same time, he activated his spiritual power and a wave of coldness spread out.

"The main room is so cool!" Aunt Gu said in surprise.

"I've discovered it a long time ago. It's very cool today!" Xue Yuantong agreed.

Aunt Gu served the dishes one by one. In addition to the earth-pot chicken, there were two dishes, one roasted edamame and one cold tomato. Together with the watermelon cut by Xue Yuantong, it was barely four dishes.

"Today's dishes are relatively simple, Jiang Ning, don't dislike it." Aunt Gu said sheepishly.

"It's already very rich." Jiang Ning said.

Aunt Gu brought the rice cooker with mung bean soup in it. A bowl of it in summer can quench thirst and cool down the heat.

"Eat, eat." Xue Yuantong reached out and grabbed a piece of pancake, then was burned, and immediately retracted his paws with a resentful expression.

Jiang Ning was so amused that she couldn't help laughing.

Aunt Gu gave Jiang Ning a piece of cake and put it on his bowl.

The pancakes are cooked with native chicken. A small part of the pancake is drizzled with soup and the other half is crispy.

Jiang Ning took a bite and praised: "Auntie's craftsmanship is really good."

Xue Yuantong's face was proud, as if he was proud of himself.

"If it tastes good, eat more. I see you have grown a lot taller. Now is the time when you need nutrition. You have to keep up in order to grow taller." Aunt Gu said.

Jiang Ning acted like he was being taught.

Xue Yuantong felt sour in her heart when she heard this. She felt that if she continued to listen, jealous saliva would remain, so she took the initiative to change the topic:

"Mom, why did you come home today? Did you take a car?"

Aunt Gu nodded: "Yes, I transferred twice, but there were not many people."

Xue Yuantong felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about how hard it was for his mother to carry so many things and change trains along the way.

But there was nothing she could do.
