SIAS Chapter 212.1

In the next few days, in order to avoid embarrassment, Li Mengxue went to the city to resell supplies every day, leaving early and returning late. She was not seen all day long.

Zheng Xiaolong did not follow her closely this time.

His attitude toward Chen Ruru was still not very good, but he took out his own food for her to eat, taught her to use the earth stove and heat the kang, stayed in Chen Zhihe’s house, and rarely went out.

Chen Ruru was very serious in supervising the repair of the empty house. The tables, chairs, kang mats used in the house, and even the anti-dust newspapers on the wall were all exchanged and prepared little by little.

She strictly followed the layout of Li Mengxue’s house that she had seen before, striving to make Li Mengxue move in and live in a similar or even better place than before.

She seemed to be too paranoid only in matters related to the engagement. Her other daily life and even her interactions with others were quite normal. She was even a kind girl.

The educated youth point returned to a brief period of peace.

It was so cold that everyone stayed indoors with nothing to do, including Yi Qingqing, who spent most of her time learning skills.

Occasionally, she would do something else in the thatched house to relax.

She started to use the things in the New Year gift package.

Her painting skills had improved a lot at this moment. After studying, she would sit in front of the easel in the thatched house to paint and relax.

The image of two figures running hand in hand in the rain has begun to take shape on the drawing paper.

Knock, knock!

The knock on the door pulled Yi Qingqing out of her memories. She put down the pencil in her hand, wiped the pencil dirt on her hand, and returned to the house with one thought.

Although she was not in the house, the kang was still burning, so the house was warm.

When she walked over and opened the door, she saw a large wooden box in front of her. She was startled and had to stand on tiptoe to see Yun Guyuan behind it.

Yi Qingqing quickly made way and asked, “What is this?”

Yun Guyuan walked in with a box in his arms. Yi Qingqing quickly moved the table to let him put the box down.

“I was bored in the house during the winter. I thought that when the weather got warmer, you would have nowhere to store your thick clothes, quilts, and blankets, so I made two boxes for you.”

He opened the big box, and there was a small box inside.

“The small one is made of extra scraps, and it can also be used to hold small things.”

“For me?” Yi Qingqing was surprised.

Yun Guyuan nodded.

Although what he said made sense, if her portable space was not counted, her original big wooden box was indeed not enough. She also needed a small box to store money, so the gilded lacquer box was not enough.

But these two boxes were made better than the ones sold by the old carpenter. They were polished very smoothly and painted with a layer of tung oil paint. They were very beautiful. She accepted them just like that, but they were too valuable.

But she couldn’t refuse it. It was his intention after all. Although they had an agreement, it was normal for them to give each other gifts, given their current relationship.

Before she could say anything, Yun Guyuan said, “Can this box extend the tuition for a while?”

“Tuition?” Yi Qingqing was confused.

Suddenly, she glanced at the washbasin rack behind the door, then looked at the kang table and the rocking chair and stool by the back door, and suddenly remembered a long-standing agreement.

It seemed that someone used these things to lure her to teach him how to cook step by step, right?

Now she has made it a habit to cook with him once a week.

So when was the final extension deadline?
