The Tempting Educated Youth Married to a Rough Man-Chapter 133 - 129: Xiao Chenye: That Police Officer Seems Pretty Close to You, Huh?

Chapter 133: Chapter 129: Xiao Chenye: That Police Officer Seems Pretty Close to You, Huh?

After casually cleaning up for an hour and a half, Wen Ran was exhausted and sat heavily on a stool, watching Hongguo busily buzzing around like a little bee.

She waved, "Come over here, no rush, let’s take a break first."

"Sis, you rest, I’m not tired!"

Wen Ran: "..."

Oh, youth, how wonderful.

Her gaze suddenly fell on the package in the corner of the yard.

When she picked up the package at the team leader’s house, she saw it, and her name was indeed written on it.

But...

Does she have other relatives?

Curiosity leads to action, she quickly tore open the package, and only then discovered there was quite a lot inside.

A brand-new set of cotton clothes and pants, a woolen hat.

Two or three pounds of biscuits, and three pounds of sausages.

Shaking it a bit, a letter and a small red envelope fell out from the clothes lining.

The red envelope contained ten yuan.

Quite generous.

Wen Ran was even more bewildered.

Upon reading the letter, it turned out to be someone surprising yet expected.

Chen Wan.

She had sold a job to the Chen Family, yet Chen Wan kept thinking of her time and again; it’s hard to say she wasn’t touched.

Chen Wan likely enjoys writing; the letter spanned five pages, filled with dense characters.

Just looking at it, Wen Ran felt like a little sparrow was sitting on her shoulder chattering away.

Chen Wan was sending her regards.

Also updating the situation of Yuan Mei and others.

Actually, Wen Ran already knew most of it, but Chen Wan added a bit more.

After her son died, Yuan Mei had nowhere to go and intended to bash her head at the neighborhood office.

The neighborhood office, fearing trouble, managed to persuade Yuan Mei out of it and found her a job cleaning toilets. With frugality, she scraped by each month.

Though life was tough.

Wen Ran thought it was quite alright; Yuan Mei seemed to have found her community.

Birds of a feather!

Speaking of which, Chen Wan didn’t forget to share her good news.

She chattered on about how tough accounting was, and her mom pulled some strings, added three hundred yuan, and got her a broadcasting job.

Of course, she casually mentioned that the girl was not very bright.

Her own job was going well, yet she wanted to swap jobs with her husband...

After finishing the letter, Hongguo had also finished her chores and came over, "Sis, what does it say?"

"What does it say?"

Wen Ran folded the letter, smiling, "It’s a long story. When we get home, I’ll tell you slowly; let’s eat at Auntie’s first."

She was hungry.

"Alright," Hongguo looked at the empty doghouse worriedly, "Sis, Hetao hasn’t come back, should we go out and look?"

"No need."

She added water to the dog’s bowl, mixed in a little spring water, and placed it in front of the doghouse.

Wen Ran knew there was no need to look for Hetao; he’d come back on his own soon.

The sisters closed the door and wandered off to the Xiao Family’s house for a meal.

Passing by Bao Wenxuan’s house, Wen Ran took a special look; the doors and windows were shut tight, indicating she had gone for a visit and hadn’t returned.

After eating at the Xiao Family, they didn’t forget to bring back two helpers.

Xiao Chenye and Xiao Chenxing.

"No worries, it’s just some snow on the roof; I can handle it myself."

"I’ll do it," Xiao Chenye looked at Wen Ran, "the injury on your hand may not heal completely."

Actually, it was alright, the wound had scabbed over.

But when a man eagerly wants to help, she didn’t need to dampen his enthusiasm.

Xiao Chenye cleared the snow, Xiao Chenxing and Hongguo bent over hauling the house’s snow out.

With nothing to do, Wen Ran took out paper and pen, planning to write a letter to Chen Wan.

Indeed, she had a matter for Chen Wan to handle.

She wanted some teaching materials and guidance books.

As usual, she started with greetings, then briefly described her situation, explaining why the reply was late...

The letter, aiming to be comprehensive, stretched over three pages.

Wen Ran shook her wrist, already pondering what gift to send.

Forget clothes; she didn’t have the skill, and given Chen Wan’s family condition, they were not short of wearables.

Then...

She decided to send some good food.

Previously gathered five pounds of venison, ten pounds of wild boar, a leg of mutton, whole rabbit meat, and wild chicken.

Dried mushrooms picked from the mountain, fragrant walnuts shaken down...

Included one by one, all packed inside.

Additionally, she wrapped five ’Big Unity’ notes.

Seeking favor requires the right attitude.

Just as she finished packing, Xiao Chenye came in holding an enamel tea mug.

Though they had been back for a while, it was only now that the two had a chance for a chat.

"Ahem," Xiao Chenye cleared his throat, "so, are you busy?"

"What’s up?"

After putting away the letter, Wen Ran leaned out through the window and asked, "Is everything tidied up outside?"

"Almost," Xiao Chenye explained, "the snow on the roof is cleared; those two are hauling it outside."

"Oh."

Wen Ran sat down comfortably, sizing up Xiao Chenye in surprise, "Got something to say?"

"Not quite," Xiao Chenye rubbed his nose, "Ahem, just wanted to ask you something."

"Ask what?"

"That policeman," Xiao Chenye looked at Wen Ran hesitantly, probing, "I see you seem pretty familiar with him." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Wen Ran: "..."

She blinked, "Familiar? We met just once."

"Just once?"

"Yes."

Xiao Chenye’s heart raced.

Knowing men, what Shao Ping’s eyes held was clear as day.

Really thrilling!

Luckily he acted soon; delaying any longer might have let others seize the opportunity first.

"Alright then," Xiao Chenye still wanted to say something, but outside Xiao Chenxing was already shouting, "Xiao Chenye, if you slack off and don’t work, I’ll tell mom when we get home."

Xiao Chenye: "..."

What a disaster, how did he end up with such an indiscreet sister.

Wen Ran covered her mouth, chuckling, Xiao Chenye called out, "Got it, heading out now."

With a bustling day like that, it quickly passed.

As night fell, Hetao still hadn’t returned.

Hongguo lit a lamp, worried, "Sis, do you think Hetao might have gotten into trouble?"

"It’s okay," Wen Ran made a nest for the little squirrel, placed it up on the beam, and clapped her hands, "When he’s done playing, he’ll come back on his own."

"Alright then."

They slept soundly, and the next morning, Wen Ran went to the team leader’s house to rally people.

"Can’t seem to settle down," the team leader grumbled while hitching the ox cart, "Just got back, yet refuses to stay still."

"Hehehe, settle down for what," Wen Ran laughed like a blooming flower, "Youth needs to be restless."

The team leader glanced at Wen Ran, succinctly, "The team raised thirty pigs this year."

Wen Ran: "..."

Defeated, don’t disturb.
