Chapter 244 Why are you so nervous?
Wu Xingbang didn't expect that after waiting here for most of the day, besides a few children, only Ye Nuan would appear.
"Don't ask me yet, but what are you doing so late at night?"
"I'm going to the hospital to get medicine. What can I do? There's a sick person living next door to me, don't you know?"
Wu Xingbang choked, it seemed there was such a thing.
However, because his rank was too low, he had no idea who lived there. He only knew that people came and went every day, but he didn't know what kind of patient it was.
"Excuse me, I heard a noise just now, so I turned around to see what was going on."
"What are you doing here?"
"It's nothing. I just heard someone say there was a thief, so I came to check it out."
Ye Nuan looked disgusted, just like before, then got on her bike and rode away without looking back.
Ye Nuan acted too normally, so Wu Xingbang didn't suspect anything. Most importantly, Ye Nuan was riding a bicycle, and there were no bicycles around when he went to Bai Ge's place earlier.
Moreover, Wu Xingbang had just taken a picture of her bicycle and confirmed that it was indeed the one Gu Hanchuan had bought. So even if someone was hiding there earlier, it certainly wasn't Ye Nuan.
Ye Nuan had no idea that she had completely cleared herself of suspicion because of a bicycle.
Back home, Xiao Liu was held in Li Qiang's arms and teased.
"Sis, why won't you let him sleep?"
“It’s still a bit early. Let him sleep a little longer. He’s still a baby. If he goes to sleep too early, he might not sleep until three or four in the morning. Then he’ll be fussy and we’ll have to get up and hold him to soothe him.”
Ye Nuan was hearing this for the first time, and looked enlightened: "My cousin knows so much."
"Alright, go wash up and get ready for bed."
"it is good."
With Gu Hanchuan away, Li Qiang and Ye Nuan sleep with the child every night.
For the past few days, Xiao Gangpao has been coming over almost every day wanting to sleep with the child, but Li Qiang dares not agree.
"Xiao Liu is still too young. Let's wait until next year. He'll be able to talk next year, and then you won't be able to stop taking care of him even if you don't want to!"
Little Cannon teased Little Six for a while longer before taking his sister's hand and leaving.
Ye Nuan washed her face, soaked her feet in hot water, and tidied herself up before going inside.
"Go to sleep, you have to go to work tomorrow."
Ye Nuan wasn't actually that sleepy; it was just that today's harvest was so plentiful that she felt like a poor person who had suddenly become rich.
Although she is not short of money, who would complain about having too much money?
Ye Nuan had just finished washing up in the morning when the child woke up.
After the boy woke up, he didn't cry, but his eyes kept darting around, showing that he was a cunning little devil.
"Nuan Nuan, you watch the child. I'll prepare some vegetables, and then we can eat."
"Row."
Ye Nuan changed Xiao Liu's diaper and dressed him in a thin little outfit, and then the little guy climbed up and wanted to nurse.
When Ye Nuan was in postpartum confinement, Li Qiang was the one who went out to buy groceries.
Later, when Ye Nuan was able to go out, she took over the task of buying groceries.
She would occasionally buy groceries from the supply station in the family compound, but more often than not, she would take the groceries out of her own storage space and only tell others that she bought them near the hospital.
Anyway, no one will bother to verify it.
Moreover, Ye Nuan would sometimes actually go to the neighborhood to buy some groceries, since she didn't have all kinds of vegetables in her space.
For example, she doesn't have lotus root in her space.
Ye Nuan parked the bicycle, then took down a canvas backpack hanging on the handlebars, and carefully put down a snakeskin bag tied to the back as well.
The items were quite heavy, and just then, Little Cannon came out of the house and quickly carried them into the living room.
"Didn't you go to work today?"
"I'm working the night shift today."
"Okay, go ahead and leave early. It'll be too dark on the road later. Be careful while riding your bike and don't fall."
"Got it, Auntie."
Since Xiaogangpao started working, we bought another bicycle for the family, which makes things much more convenient.
Moreover, in Ye Nuan's words, since the family has the means, there's no need for them to suffer. Gu Hanchuan also doesn't agree with forcing oneself to endure hardship when it's not necessary.
Ye Nuan brought the vegetables to the kitchen, and when no one was around, she secretly brought out a large piece of meat from her spatial storage, the kind with a good balance of fat and lean.
"Sis, the meat I bought today is pretty good, but I might not have time to make braised pork. Let's make twice-cooked pork instead."
“Okay, I’ll pick a few garlic sprouts from the yard.”
After Ye Nuan fed the child, she asked Xiao Gangpao to take some of the fruit to his room and then prepared another portion for him to deliver to Gao Erya's family.
"Don't take anything from your Aunt Gao's family anymore. Just say it's just a few fruits, not worth much!"
"Got it, Auntie."
Little Cannon went to deliver fruit, while Yueyue lay on the bed playing with Little Six.
"Yueyue, please stay here and look after Xiaoliu. I'll go check on the kitchen."
"Don't worry, Auntie."
Ye Nuan glanced into the kitchen and was somewhat surprised to find that they had made porridge and steamed buns for dinner.
"Han Chuan is back. He just put his things down and went to the military camp, saying he would have dinner when he got back."
No wonder.
Is she the older sister, or is she closer to her younger brother?
"Is this enough food? Should we go buy some more?"
"No need! The vegetables in the yard are growing just right. I'll pick some more later and make a stir-fried vegetable dish. That should be enough."
Ye Nuan glanced at the cutting board, then thought about Gu Hanchuan's appetite, and went to the cupboard, took out a few eggs, and quickly cracked them into a bowl.
Li Qiang knew that although Ye Nuan came from an ordinary working-class family, she was generous and never stingy when it came to food, which suited Gu Hanchuan's temperament perfectly.
"How many did you hit?"
"I made six. I remember there were a few green peppers in the bag. I'll make some stir-fried green peppers with eggs, and that should be about right."
Li Qiang didn't touch the bag, assuming that all the vegetables inside had been taken out. However, Ye Nuan went over and rummaged through it a couple of times, then took out four more green peppers.
Actually, Ye Nuan took it out of her spatial storage under the guise of an opportunity.
Stir-fried shredded potatoes, twice-cooked pork, scrambled eggs with green peppers, and stir-fried greens—four dishes in total, that's quite a lot.
With the addition of Xiao Gangpao, there are four adults and one child. This standard of living is something most families can't compare to.
Gu Hanchuan returned quite punctually; the dishes Li Qiang had just finished cooking were ready when he arrived home.
After dinner, Gu Hanchuan teased Xiao Liu for a while, then asked Li Qiang to take care of him while he pulled Ye Nuan into the inner room, saying he wanted to discuss something.
Li Qiang thought the couple was going to get intimate, so she chuckled to herself and took the child into her room.
However, she really misunderstood.
"Qi Chen said you got Zhang Wei and Bai Ge arrested?"
Ye Nuan was taken aback, then said sincerely, "I know they went to jail, but what does that have to do with me? I just asked him to help investigate. I don't have any evidence, so how could I get them arrested? Why are you so nervous? Is Zhang Wei someone important?"
