27: Chapter 27: Guan Family_1 27: Chapter 27: Guan Family_1 Taking advantage of everyone’s nap time, Yang Ruxin once again entered her private space, knocking here and tapping there, still discovering nothing, feeling suddenly deflated.

In the end, she left half a bowl of hot water inside, wanting to test if this space had any special functions.

She wanted to see if the hot water would grow cold if she didn’t enter it for a while.

Guan Family.

“Call your brother out to eat,” Guan Tongshi said as she set the table, glancing at her daughter.

“Oh,” Guan Qingyue turned and exited the kitchen door, but she quickly returned, “Brother says he’s not hungry…”

“How can he not be hungry?” Guan Tongshi frowned, removed her apron, and personally went to knock on the door, “He carried several loads of wheat straw this morning, quickly come out to eat.

If you have a full stomach at noon, you’ll have energy for the afternoon.”

Guan Qingshu had no choice but to come out of his room.

The meal was simple, sweet potato congee, a plate of corn pancakes, a plate of three-flour pancakes, a dish of soy sauce cucumbers, a plate of stir-fried spinach, and a small bowl of braised pork.

Guan Danian’s and Guan Qingshu’s bowls also had an extra boiled egg.

Guan Qingyue glanced at the egg, then forced her gaze away, promptly reaching for a piece of braised pork to eat with her corn pancake.

“You dead girl, that’s for your dad and your brother, what are you eating?” Guan Tongshi reached for her chopsticks, ready to tap her.

Guan Qingyue quickly stood up and moved out of Guan Tongshi’s strike range.

“Mom, let sister have it,” Guan Qingshu blocked Guan Tongshi’s hand and placed another piece of meat in Guan Qingyue’s bowl, “There’s plenty here, and sister has also done quite a bit of work.”

“My brother is the best,” Guan Qingyue immediately beamed with a smile.

“What work has she done?” Guan Tongshi rolled her eyes at her daughter.

“Mom, once the busy farming period is over, I’m going to town to study.

Dad will be out working, and only you and Yueyue will be home.

Without her helping you, it would be so tiring, right?” Guan Qingshu smiled, “Isn’t that right, Dad?”

“Alright, it’s just a piece of meat.

Sit down and eat,” Guan Danian waved his hand impatiently.

Guan Tongshi didn’t say anything more.

Guan Qingyue happily continued eating her braised pork.

“We’ve finished tidying up those two acres of land today, you should head back to town tomorrow.

The remaining work, sowing corn and beans, can be handled by your mom, your sister, and me.” Guan Danian never bothered with his children’s food as long as his share wasn’t shorted.

His main concern was still his son’s studies, “There are only two more months until the exams, focusing on your books is what matters.

Look, the Yang Family’s Song brother hasn’t come back either.”

“Yeah, falling behind one day means being one day further behind others,” Guan Tongshi nodded her agreement, “As long as you make something of yourself, all our hard work will have been worth it.”

Guan Qingshu glanced at Guan Danian and Guan Tongshi, then nodded: “Okay.”

Seeing her son agree to return to town, Guan Tongshi immediately smiled.

Her son shouldn’t have to suffer in a small village like this: “In town, you have your uncle and aunt to look after you.

We can rest easy…”

Guan Danian also smiled.

His elder brother-in-law, Tong Gang, had always been kinder to Qingshu than even they were, of course, there were reasons for that.

This elder brother-in-law, Tong Gang, had been sharp since childhood, working as an assistant in a grocery store in town from a young age.

The store owner only had one daughter, who ended up taking a liking to him.

The shopkeeper was short-lived; his daughter died of illness just a couple of years after they married.

Therefore, Tong Gang took over the store and became the shopkeeper himself.
