"Okay, then I'll go in and have a drink of water and then leave."
Seeing this, Chi Yuhang frowned slightly and looked back at the furnishings at home.
He knew the sports car that Miss Zhan drove. Although he didn't know the specific model, he was sure that the car was definitely worth a lot of money, so Miss Zhan's family must be from a wealthy family.
But his home was too simple, and he was worried that he would neglect the other party.
Seeing that Zhan Nanqing agreed, Chi Chenyun showed a smile on his face, turned around and walked home.
"Then come on, I'll get you a glass of water."
Zhan Nanqing hesitated for a moment and followed.
When she arrived at Chi Yuhang's house, she discovered that the situation at the other party's house was worse than she had imagined. There was a damp and old smell that hit her face, which made her sneeze.
She looked around inside, looking for a chair to sit on, but found that there was only one room, and the only furniture was an old bed, a rocking chair, and a small bamboo chair in front of her. Other than that, there was nothing else.
Other furniture.
Who can tell her how such a small bamboo chair can hold people?
If she sits on it, won’t this shabby and small chair be broken directly?
And even if there are creepers outside, there are them all on the walls of Chi Yuhang’s house?!
Chi Chenyun hunched over and brought a cup, ready to pour some water for Zhan Nanqing.
When Chi Yuhang saw it, he immediately took the cup from Chi Chenyun's hand and helped the old man walk to the bed.
"Grandpa, just sit down, I'll just go and pour water for Miss Zhan."
Chi Chenyun glanced at Chi Yuhang and gently patted the back of his hand with his thin hand.
"Xiaohang, this is our distinguished guest. I'm just pouring you a glass of water. It's okay. Don't worry."
When Zhan Nanqing saw that Chi Chenyun insisted on pouring water for her, she immediately stopped him.
"No, no, no, Grandpa Chi, I can do it myself. You can go back to bed and rest."
After hearing Zhan Nanqing's words, Chi Chenyun stopped insisting on pouring water for Zhan Nanqing.
"You're old! You're useless. Miss Zhan, don't mind!"
Zhan Nanqing quickly shook her head.
"No, no, how could I mind."
Chi Yuhang quickly came to Zhan Nanqing's side, poured a glass of hot water and handed it to him.
"Thank you for coming to deliver the medicine. My grandpa has this kind of personality and is very hospitable. Don't mind. I have to go to the backyard to get water to wipe my grandpa's face now. I can't entertain you anymore. I'm sorry."
He would help his grandpa wipe his face at noon every day, so he would be more relaxed when taking care of him at night.
Zhan Nanqing nodded and took the water glass handed over by Chi Yuhang.
"Okay, it's okay."
She wanted to fly back to the city right now. This tile-roofed house was too depressing.
But...she was a little curious, what did the backyard Chi Yuhang mentioned look like?
She just watched as Chi Yuhang came to a small door and opened it. The sunlight immediately poured in from there, adding a little more light to the dark home.
Only then did Zhan Nanqing notice that there was a small door in the corner of Chi Yuhang's house. She didn't see it at all because it was too dark just now.
Now that she saw the light, she couldn't help but follow it.
After arriving at the backyard mentioned by Chi Yuhang, Zhan Nanqing's eyes widened slightly.
"Hey, your home actually has a backyard. Although it's not as big as mine, it's well taken care of. It's much better than I thought."
Although it's all fields, it's at least much better than that small tile-roofed house.
Chi Yuhang was fetching water from the well at the moment. When he heard Zhan Nanqing's voice, he was stunned and turned back to look at him.
"Well, actually it doesn't belong to my family. I just planted something in this place."
Zhan Nanqing touched her chin thoughtfully, and just as she was about to take a few steps in to feel the rural-like atmosphere, she heard a crowing of chickens, accompanied by ducks.
The rattling sound!
She was so frightened that she immediately retracted her feet and subconsciously leaned towards Chi Yuhang.
"Oh my god! Oh my god! What's the sound?! Why do you still have chickens and ducks in your backyard?!"
Zhan Nanqing and Chi Yuhang were close to each other originally, but now that Zhan Nanqing is so close, the two of them are almost touching each other.
Chi Yuhang put down the bucket in his hand, glanced down at Zhan Nanqing, and then took a few steps back.
"Don't be afraid. They are very cute. They won't bite or jump on people. I bought them before and wanted them to lay eggs and boil them for my grandpa to eat."
Zhan Nanqing took a closer look and found that the chickens and ducks were in the grass nearby, still keeping a certain distance from her, and showing no signs of jumping on her.
She breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to pat her chest.
"That's good."
She realized only belatedly that she and Chi Yuhang were a little close at the moment.
She just...actually ran in the direction of Chi Yuhang?!
But this is normal. If she doesn't run towards the people, why should she run towards the chickens and ducks?
Chi Yuhang picked up the bucket again and started walking out.
Zhan Nanqing didn't dare to stay any longer and immediately followed him.
After Chi Chenyun saw Chi Yuhang, he said:
"Xiaohang, don't we still have a chicken and a duck at home? Kill that chicken and fry it for Miss Zhan."
After hearing Chi Chenyun's words, Zhan Nanqing was stunned.
"Grandpa Zhan, I didn't say I wanted to stay for dinner. Wouldn't this be too much trouble for you?"
Mainly because she saw that the conditions at Chi Yuhang's home were not very good. Apart from the chickens and ducks in the backyard, there was probably nothing to entertain her.
What's more, the chickens and ducks were bought by Chi Yuhang to lay eggs. She had never eaten chickens, ducks, fish, etc. She couldn't be so selfish and eat the only expensive thing in the other person's house.
Chi Yuhang also frowned and thought for a while.
"But grandpa, you are in poor health now and need to eat eggs to supplement your nutrition. If you kill the chicken, there will be no eggs."
Chi Chenyun waved his hand.
"If there are no eggs, just eat duck eggs. In fact, eggs and duck eggs are the same, and the chicken is more tender. The duck is too old. I must use the best to entertain Miss Zhan."
Zhan Nanqing smiled awkwardly and politely rejected Chi Chenyun's kindness.
"No need, Grandpa Chi. I've already eaten. That would be too much trouble for you. I've delivered the medicine, so I'll leave first!"
Just when Zhan Nanqing was about to leave, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Zhan Nanqing took out her phone and took a look at it, and found that it was a video call from Qiao Jing.
She glanced at Chi Chenyun and then at Chi Yuhang. In order to prevent the old man from staying again, she clicked to answer as she walked out.
"Hello? What's wrong?"
Qiao Jing's voice came.
"Has the medicine been delivered?"
After she finished acupuncture for the patient, she found out that the medicine was delivered by Zhan Nanqing. To be honest, she felt a little aggrieved by Zhan Nanqing.
After all, Zhan Nanqing is the eldest daughter of the Zhan family. She must have never been to a remote place like the suburbs since she was a child. I wonder if she is complaining about it now.
