Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 706 - 705: Just as Beautiful

"The Li family members aren’t home today, why don’t you and brother-in-law come over for a meal?" Shen Qinglan said, "Lunch should be ready soon."

Shen Qingju nodded, "Mother already mentioned it. We could go over now and help Mother with some things."

"I just came back," Lian Qiu said with a smile, "Fu Dong’s cooking is good, and Si Yun and the others are helping." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Fu Dong and the others are here too?" Shen Qingju asked.

"Yes." Shen Qinglan nodded, "They said it’s boring in town, so they came over together."

Shen Qingju nodded, "That’s good. Now that Qingping and Qing’an are back, there’s not much for them to do in town. It’s good for them to come back and share some of the work."

"If you have nothing else to do, you could also help Auntie and Sister-in-law wash some vegetables," Shen Qingju said, "It’s almost time to get off work, and they should still be busy."

"Are those people having lunch at Uncle’s place?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"Yes," Shen Qingju replied, "Mother usually helps out after cooking."

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Then you all go ahead. I’ll check on Uncle’s place and come back later."

Shen Qingju nodded, and Lian Qiu wanted to see Shen Qinglan off, but she refused.

When Shen Qinglan arrived at Shen He’s house, she saw two large stoves set up in the yard, and Jiang shi with her two cousins-in-law, along with two unfamiliar women, were all busy.

"Qingfeng’s mother, we’re out of salt." the woman cooking called out.

"Right away, I’ll get it."

Jiang shi put down the dried bamboo shoots in her hand and went into the kitchen.

Zhuang Ruyue and Zhang Xiaolian were busy washing vegetables by the well.

"Who are you looking for, miss?"

The woman adding firewood to the stove looked at the newly arrived Shen Qinglan and asked.

These two women seemed unfamiliar and likely weren’t from Lishui Village.

Shen Qinglan replied, "I’m looking for someone."

The two women were momentarily stunned, but didn’t ask further, though their eyes couldn’t help but linger on her.

Over there, Zhuang Ruyue and Zhang Xiaolian, having heard the commotion, both turned their heads.

The two simultaneously called out, "Qinglan."

Shen Qinglan smiled and nodded, "Big cousin-in-law, Second cousin-in-law."

"Qinglan’s back!" Jiang shi emerged from the kitchen holding the salt, looked at Shen Qinglan, and smiled, "When did you return?"

This was yet another to ask her when she returned.

Shen Qinglan sighed inwardly but still responded with a smile, "I just got back not long ago. I came to help a bit."

"No need, no need!" Jiang shi handed the salt to the woman, then took a good look at her and frowned, "Why have you lost weight?"

Um... another person saying she lost weight, was it really that noticeable?

"Indeed, you’ve slimmed down!" Zhang Xiaolian said with a smile, "When I saw you last month, you still had a little flesh on your face."

Shen Qinglan pondered and asked, "Does it look better, or worse?"

Zhuang Ruyue laughed, "Equally beautiful!"

Jiang shi, however, frowned, "Having a bit of flesh looks better. Oh dear, look, your wrist has gotten thinner."

Shen Qinglan looked at her wrist, noticing no change and wondering how Jiang shi noticed.

"Child, have you not been eating well while you were away?" Jiang shi looked at her with concern.

"No," Shen Qinglan said, "I’ve been eating quite a lot."

She truly had been eating a lot, even during her time in Bright Moon City.

Jiang shi said, "The chickens at home are quite big now; Auntie will kill one for you to nourish your body later."

Um... yet another person offering to kill a chicken to supplement her diet.

Shen Qinglan smiled, "No need, Auntie, my mother likely already killed one."
