A woman in her 1970s remarried a tycoon with no heir, and gave birth to triplets, stunning the famil

"Ahem..." Lu Qiyue coughed awkwardly, but quickly regained his composure and said, "It was Xiao Zhang who bought it before, I really didn't ask him carefully."

"What do you mean I bought these? Do you still need them? I'll go buy some more." Xiao Zhang had just entered the room with the documents, intending to give them to Lu Qiyue, when he heard that he had been mentioned, he looked puzzled.

Jiang Linwan looked at Lu Qiyue with curiosity.

Lu Qiyue's body stiffened instantly, his tall and upright figure subconsciously turned slightly to the side, his back became tense, and his tone was unusually flustered: "The fan I asked you to buy last time, didn't you say there was only one left and it was sold out?"

Why do I hear from all the ladies that fans won't be out of stock?

Xiao Zhang was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood what was going on. With a smile on his lips, he glanced meaningfully at his team leader and chuckled, "We were indeed out of stock that time. It was probably because the weather suddenly got hot and more people wanted to buy it."

"But we definitely have it in stock now. If you need it, I can buy it for you tomorrow."

Jiang Linwan shook her head: "No need, I'll go to town with a few of my sisters-in-law tomorrow and buy one while I'm at it."

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Guiying and the others got up to say goodbye and leave, as it was time to go back and cook for their children and the men in their families.

Once everyone left the courtyard, only Jiang Linwan and Lu Qiyue remained, and the atmosphere was exceptionally quiet.

This was the first time the two of them had been alone together since they parted ways that day. Just thinking about that kiss made Jiang Linwan's cheeks burn: "I'll go cook. Several aunties and grandmas gave me a lot of fish today."

Which one would you like to eat? Or how about we clean and eat this grouper? It won't keep in this heat.

"Okay, I'll go clean up." Lu Qiyue reached out to take the fish from her hand. Their fingertips touched, and for a moment, their warm touch caused them both to freeze as if they had been burned.

Jiang Linwan's ears turned slightly red, and she quickly got up to go look at the old hen.

As Lu Qiyue felt the lingering soft and delicate touch on his fingertips, all his restraint and tension crumbled. Sensing the changes in his body and recalling the little girl's decisive refusal that day, his mind was in turmoil.

Jiang Linwan turned around, packed some shellfish and shrimp, and went into the kitchen.

After cleaning the fish, Lu Qiyue carried it inside and asked the old hen in the yard, "Should we keep that old hen?"

"Yes, of course we should raise them, so we can eat eggs every day. Sister Guiying said she'll go to town tomorrow to try her luck and see if anyone has any raised hens for sale."

"We can raise them to lay eggs after we buy them." It would be even better if they had ducks or geese.

Jiang Linwan had previously cleared out a patch of wasteland and planted vegetables there. Perhaps because of the spiritual spring water used to irrigate it, there were far more vegetables than they could eat.

Moreover, she has plenty of vegetables in her space, far more than she can eat. Raising more poultry will not only prevent the waste of vegetables but also provide her with various eggs.

They can be raised until the Lunar New Year and then slaughtered for meat.

Lu Qiyue turned and went out the door. When Jiang Linwan returned, he was carrying a lot of wooden sticks on his back.

"Dinner's ready, Brother Qiyue. What are you going to do with all these sticks?" Jiang Linwan asked with a curious look.

"You want to raise chickens? I'll build a fence around this area, so they won't make a mess of the yard when they eat or poop," Lu Qiyue said, pointing to the wall on the east side.

Jiang Linwan looked surprised and gave Lu Qiyue a thumbs up: "Brother Qiyue, you're amazing. You can think of everything so thoroughly."

Lu Qiyue straightened up instantly, his resolute profile flushed slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Let's eat first, then we'll get on with it," Jiang Linwan said.

Lu Qiyue was eager to build the fence, and after eating, he continued to work diligently, while Jiang Linwan watched from the side.

In the hot summer, as Lu Qiyue worked for a while, a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, sliding down his hair, and his chin and neck were also covered with a thin layer of sweat.

Jiang Linwan looked at his slightly flushed profile, picked up a clean towel from the side, and walked lightly to him.

She raised her hand, her fingertips gently touching his forehead, carefully wiping away the beads of sweat that rolled down his forehead.

Warm fingertips landed on his brow bone, and Lu Qiyue stiffened, his hand movements pausing slightly.

But he still let her wipe the sweat from her forehead.

Her fingertips occasionally brushed against his skin unintentionally, the warm touch causing them both to tremble slightly.

Lu Qiyue's eyes surged with barely suppressed heat and excitement, his Adam's apple bobbed rapidly, and he clenched his back teeth tightly.

He could see the little girl's bright face and luscious red lips as soon as he looked down.

Thinking of the little girl's soft touch that night, Lu Qiyue's eyes darkened. He forcefully suppressed the urge to kiss the little girl and vented all his desire on the fence, while his hands worked even faster.

I was busy until after seven o'clock, when it was getting dark in the yard, and the fence was finally finished.

Jiang Linwan tossed the old hen into the chicken coop, then turned to Lu Qiyue with an excited expression: "Brother Qiyue, you're amazing!"

Lu Qiyue's Adam's apple bobbed slowly as he looked at her excited expression, his eyes filled with joy and doting affection.

The two took turns showering, and Jiang Linwan went back to her room early, climbed into bed, and listened to the sound of water splashing outside.

Her heart was pounding in her throat, and her face was flushed. Should she let Qiyue sleep on the bed or on the floor?

Perhaps she was too tired. After thinking for a while and not hearing any footsteps from the man, Jiang Linwan quickly fell asleep.

After washing up, Lu Qiyue entered the room. Looking at the little girl's steady breathing on the bed, he couldn't help but lean down slightly and leave a light kiss on the corner of her lips.

I didn't dare linger for long; it was over in a flash. I went down to the ground, spread out my bedding, and lay down to sleep.

Jiang Linwan slept in late, a rare occurrence, and didn't wake up until after nine o'clock. Just as she finished getting dressed, she heard a knock on the door.

She quickly opened the door, and Liu Guiying saw her and smiled, saying, "Did you just wake up? Haven't you had breakfast yet?"

I steamed some seafood buns this morning, you can have these.

"Aunt Wanwan, you should try it, it's delicious." Liu Guiying's daughter was on summer vacation, and she smiled at Jiang Linwan, revealing a missing front tooth.

The last time I saw the little girl, she still had all her teeth, but this time she's lost her front teeth. She looks so funny.

Jiang Linwan suppressed a laugh, quickly went back to her room to wash up, and also picked up a bamboo basket. She grabbed a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her spatial storage and handed them to Sun Miaomiao: "Thank you for the buns, Miaomiao."

Aunt Wanwan will treat you to White Rabbit milk candy, okay?

Liu Guiying immediately became unhappy upon seeing so many milk candies: "Lin Wan, just give me a few less. These things are expensive, aren't they?"

Last time my daughter was begging for candy, she looked around the supply and marketing cooperative and found that this White Rabbit milk candy was the most expensive. She heard it came from Shanghai and was very precious.

Sun Miaomiao was very obedient. As soon as she heard her mother's words, she pushed the candy back, took one, bit off half of it, and stuffed the other half into Liu Guiying's mouth.

"Oh my goodness, no wonder it's so expensive, it tastes so milky!" Liu Guiying's eyes crinkled with delight at the sweetness.

Jiang Linwan didn't care about anything else and stuffed a handful of White Rabbit milk candies into Sun Miaomiao's pocket: "Auntie likes you so I want to give you some. Take it, don't listen to your mother."
