From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 275: Chapter 274: So Considerate (Part 1)

Lu Yuanfeng roamed the streets and alleys, finally selling the roe deer meat. Unfortunately, no one bought the remaining roe deer legs and innards; otherwise, he could have made a decent sum.

Now, he could only take everything back and ask Shuangshuang for advice on how to handle it. There’s quite a lot, and certainly can’t be finished in one meal; he couldn’t just leave it to rot.

Upon arriving home, Lu Yuanfeng noticed a slender girl under the eaves of his house, gazing in his direction. Upon seeing him, she approached with a radiant smile.

”Fengzi, you’re back just in time! Hurry and tidy up, then let’s go to the house for dinner. I’ve sent Yuanbao ahead; we’re the last ones left.”

”Shuangshuang, how long have you been waiting here?”

”Not long, about the time it takes to burn a stick of incense,” Mu Shuangshuang replied candidly.

Lu Yuanfeng’s ears instantly turned red. He nodded, secretly taking a glance at Shuangshuang. He realized that today’s Shuangshuang seemed different somehow; he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was different, but she definitely looked a bit prettier.

”Why do you keep staring at me?” Mu Shuangshuang paused while helping Lu Yuanfeng to carry things and asked.

She knew she looked quite nice, but being stared at like this continuously, was it really okay?

Lu Yuanfeng was unaware of Mu Shuangshuang’s inner thoughts, but getting caught peeking made him feel embarrassed. So he just spoke his mind, ”I think you look prettier than before, and especially different today.”

The moment Lu Yuanfeng finished speaking, Mu Shuangshuang took a careful look at herself. Her clothes were still those old ones, nothing particularly attractive.

The shoes were the same too; the only change was that when she woke up this morning, she switched her fringe from a half-and-half parting to a three-seven parting.

So, a hairstyle is really important?

”You have good taste; I changed my hairstyle today, made a slight change,” Mu Shuangshuang pointed at the top of her head, pretending to be proud.

Following her hand movement, Lu Yuanfeng’s gaze landed on top of her head. He looked greedily at the person before him. Only now could he openly look at the girl in front of him; at other times, he could only sneak glances.

Lu Yuanfeng didn’t feel pitiful. On the contrary, he felt fortunate because the one he liked was right in front of him. Even if she didn’t know, he would cherish her until... until she finds someone she likes.

”Let’s go, we’ve delayed for quite a while. I wonder how the pot of stewed pork with vermicelli is doing.” Mu Shuangshuang said, pretending to drool.

Lu Yuanfeng responded quietly, ”But how should we deal with the unsold items?”

Regarding food, Lu Yuanfeng was quite clueless. Previously, he used to roast rabbits or kill wild chickens, which he and Yuanbao could only eat for two meals at most.

If they couldn’t finish it, he would send some to his grandparents, and sometimes when a few uncles came visiting, he would give them some too.

Ever since Xia Guagua caused trouble several times, he had been reluctant to visit.

”Just leave it for now, I’ll come over later and turn all of it into marinated meat, and add a little bit of my homemade chili oil.”

Mu Shuangshuang had long planned to make marinated meat; it’s tasty and can be stored for a bit longer. Now that she had the ingredients, she decided to try it, letting Lu Yuanfeng taste it.

”Okay!” Lu Yuanfeng finally relaxed, carrying the items from the wheelbarrow into the kitchen, locking it carefully.

Maybe it was the shadow caused by Xia Guagua last time. Now, except when it’s just him and Yuanbao at home, he would always lock the door to prevent anything from getting stolen again.

The courtyard walls were mostly done; wait a few days more and he could finish them. It’s just uncertain if Xia Guagua would climb over them, since the walls were quite low.

After tidying things up at home, Lu Yuanfeng and Mu Shuangshuang went to Shuangshuang’s house together.

At this point, Mu Shuangshuang’s family meal was already on the table. Everyone gathered around, waiting for Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng.

Once the two entered, everyone started serving dishes and dividing bowls and chopsticks. Soon, the two were seated.

Yu Liulang had a bowl of alcohol in front of him. He lifted the bowl and declared to everyone, ”I, Yu Liulang, am happy today. My sister’s life is getting better, and my niece has come to her senses. I’ll drink first as a toast.”

After speaking, he gulped down half a bowl of liquor, immediately causing his face to turn half red.

”Lao Liu, drink less; otherwise, you’ll be uncomfortable again when you get drunk,” his sister, Yu Si Niang, couldn’t help but scold seeing her brother drinking so much all at once.

”Sis, I’m happy today. What’s wrong with drinking a bit? Besides, make the most out of joyous occasions because who knows if there will be a chance to drink again.”

When Yu Liulang said this, there was a hint of bitterness in his eyes, which was easily caught by everyone.

”Mom, it’s a joyous day, let my uncle drink a bit. Anyway, he won’t be going back today; he can sleep over if he’s drunk.”

Mu Shuangshuang had her own plan, so she didn’t stop Yu Liulang from drinking.

Yu Liulang was satisfied after hearing Mu Shuangshuang’s words. ”Still my niece takes care of me, come, uncle will serve you some food!”

Yu Liulang served Mu Shuangshuang a long string of vermicelli, filling her already overflowing bowl completely.

”Enough, everyone, don’t just sit there, eat! Fengzi, Yuanbao, eat more; my uncle is not an outsider, you can treat him as family.”

Although Yu Liulang wasn’t familiar with Lu Yuanfeng and Yuanbao, Mu Shuangshuang clearly sensed a bit of unfamiliarity between them.

With Mu Shuangshuang’s words, Lu Yuanfeng began to eat. He was particularly humble, reaching for the vegetables in front of him multiple times, but never touching the chili stir-fry meat and stewed pork with vermicelli.

Even so, he still ate happily.

Mu Shuangshuang stood up, took Lu Yuanfeng’s half-eaten bowl, filled it with vermicelli, braised pork, and chili fry meat, giving him a full bowl.

”Don’t just eat vegetables. As I said, we’re all family, so there’s no need to hold back.”

Lu Yuanfeng’s mouth curled into a bright smile as he nodded, ”I know, but I actually like the vegetables more; they taste sweet.”

Yuanbao, beside them, rolled his eyes and added, ”Sister Shuangshuang, serve my brother more food; my brother is quite shy.”

”Haha, Yuanbao, are you worried your brother will go hungry? Rest assured, sister will complete the task.” Mu Shuangshuang playfully responded, serving more food to Lu Yuanfeng.

Soon, Lu Yuanfeng’s bowl was piling up like a small hill.

”Yuanbao, eat more and talk less.” Lu Yuanfeng couldn’t bear to let Shuangshuang not serve him more food, so he only reprimanded Yuanbao.

”Alright, brother, eat quickly. Don’t be shy; Sister Shuangshuang needs to eat too, she can’t always serve you food.”

”You...”
