“Mom, look, fortunately, I didn’t hesitate to spend the money, or else we would suffer once we reach S Province.” Qin Yu didn’t intend to belittle his mother.

He wanted his mother to understand that some money can be saved, but some can’t.

Like this time, if they had chosen to save money by buying a sitting or standing ticket, they might have had to spend money on healthcare due to fatigue once they reached his sister’s place, and they would perhaps have ended up spending more.

“Xiao Yu, 1 understand your sentiment, and I’m also glad now that I didn’t opt to save that money and not get a sleeping berth.” Nangong Shulan later compromised because of the love of her husband and the respect of her son.

Also, the money her elder daughter had sent home could alleviate their difficulties for a while.

Therefore, when her son bought the sleeper tickets, she only expressed her concern once, and did not insist on him returning them for sitting or standing tickets.

“Mom, would you like to sleep and rest for a while?” Qin Yu thought about how early they had woken up that day and he wondered if his mother was feeling tired.

“Alright, then I’ll rest for a bit, you should also take a nap, you also got up very early today.” Nangong Shulan was indeed a little tired.

Her tiredness wasn’t just because she got up early, but because she stayed up late considering the things she’ll do once she arrived at the institute and wondering how her elder daughter was doing.

“Mom, you go ahead and rest, don’t worry about me.” Qin Yu waved at his mother, dismissively.

Hearing her son say this, Nangong Shu no longer protested. She took off her shoes, lay on the berth, and closed her eyes to rest.

After seeing his mother asleep, Qin Yu looked at the rapidly receding landscape outside the train window, thinking, finally, he could go out and see the world.

When Qin Xue woke up early, she noticed that the swelling in her leg had significantly reduced. It appeared that Chu Molin’s massage had worked wonders as she was feeling much better today.

After freshening up, Qin Xue started preparing breakfast: scallion pancakes and millet porridge.

She quickly prepared a simple and light breakfast.

“Chu Molin, come and have breakfast after freshening up.” Qin Xue called to Chu Molin who was reading a book.

Upon hearing Qin Xue’s call, Chu Molin closed his book, freshened up, and sat at the table. The sight of the delicious breakfast truly stimulated his appetite. “Aren’t you going to wash up?” Qin Xue looked at this somewhat fastidious man.

“I have already freshened up when you were cooking.” Chu Molin took a sip of the millet porridge. It was cooked to a thick consistency and felt pretty smooth in his mouth.

“Oh, okay. Have your breakfast then.” Qin Xue also started with the porridge.

She preferred some porridge to pad her stomach before eating fried breadstick as she found it more comfortable, so usually when she had porridge during breakfast, she would drink it first before eating anything else.

“Chu Molin, after breakfast, you just relax at home. I need to go out for a while.

I’ll try my best to be back before lunch, though.” Qin Xue wasn’t sure how long she would take and could only try to be back before lunchtime to prepare lunch.

“Alright, be careful.” Chu Molin was not quite up to running around yet, so it was best for him to stay at home.

“Mhm, 1 got it. If I couldn’t make it back in time to prepare lunch, go to the cafeteria to eat.” Qin Xue advised him again, unable to help herself.

“Alright.” Chu Molin nodded in agreement.

Once they finished their breakfast, Qin Xue wanted to clean up the dishes, but Chu Molin stopped her.

“You should leave now. It’s better to go out when the sun is still not strong. I will tidy up here.” Chu Molin stacked the bowls and took them into the kitchen.

Qin Xue watched him, remaining silent, then she went back to her room to grab the blueprints, put them into her bag, and left for the village after informing Chu Molin.

It had been a while since Qin Xue last visited this village, and everywhere people were bustling around.

Qin Xue found the house that Fang Hong had told her about. Seeing the door open, she decided to call out from the threshold.

“Excuse me, is anyone home? Is there anyone home?” Qin Xue called out in a loud voice.

“Yes, someone is home.” A woman walked out from the house in response to Qin Xue’s call.

“Auntie, hello, may I ask if this is carpenter Uncle Li’s house?” Qin Xue remembered that Fang Hong had told her that his surname was Li.

“Yes, it is. May I ask what brought you here?” Aunt Li looked at Qin Xue, her pregnant belly quite noticeable, and wondered what could be the matter..
