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

Chapter 449: Chapter 446 Two Men Talking (Three Updates)

Lunch, because of Mu Shuangshuang’s cold mixed preserved egg, turned into a particularly blissful event.

The tangy and spicy taste, in this rather hot weather, was simply a delight to eat.

Mu Dashan was extremely excited.

The things his daughter made were simply a culinary delight.

He reckoned he wouldn’t taste anything so delicious for the rest of his life.

”Shuangshuang, your preserved egg is amazing, I’ve never eaten anything this delicious!”

Mu Dalang’s face turned red from the spice, but he still couldn’t stop praising Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang calculated in her heart, if a batch of preserved eggs could be produced every half a month, how much she would earn, including the bean sprouts she had.

These past few days, Mu Shuangshuang had been observing the batch of bean sprouts, growing exceptionally well,

They were at the stage that they could be eaten, but Mu Shuangshuang liked long bean sprouts, so if she harvested them tomorrow, she could take fresh ones to sell at the town.

Thinking about earning soon, Mu Shuangshuang’s heart drifted away.

Until Lu Yuanfeng served her some preserved egg, she snapped back to reality.

”Eat more so you can gain weight, you’re too skinny!”

Lu Yuanfeng looked at Mu Shuangshuang, his eyes full of affection.

The family was used to this open display of affection and didn’t feel it was inappropriate; instead, they envied the couple.

Beside them, Xiao Han, seeing how well Lu Yuanfeng treated his sister, hesitated for a moment and then placed a piece of preserved egg into Lu Yuanfeng’s bowl.

”Brother-in-law, you’ve worked hard, eat more!”

This form of address by Xiao Han was both recognition and responsibility for Lu Yuanfeng.

Xiao Han had always been somewhat cold towards him, which he knew.

He had been trying to get Xiao Han to accept him, but it’s been challenging.

They seldom interacted; however, recently, things changed, and Xiao Han began initiating conversation, even sharing personal thoughts and sometimes seeking Lu Yuanfeng’s advice.

Today, Lu Yuanfeng finally felt a sense of relief.

”Thank you, Xiao Han!” Lu Yuanfeng said sincerely.

”That’s great, Brother Xiao Han acknowledged my second brother, now I have another brother!”

The happiest about Xiao Han accepting Lu Yuanfeng was, undoubtedly, Yuanbao.

For the matter between Lu Yuanfeng and Mu Shuangshuang, he had been worried sick, always planning to create opportunities for his second brother and Sister Shuangshuang.

Fortunately, heaven rewards those who strive, and he finally succeeded.

Little Zhi, still young, didn’t quite understand what it meant but laughed along with everyone.

For a moment, the kitchen was filled with laughter and became incredibly lively.

Beside them, Mu Shuangshuang also looked gratified.

Finally, she managed to train the little guy well, no need to worry about various things anymore.

A meal later, the dishes were swept clean.

Even the leftover chili oil from Mu Shuangshuang’s cold mixed preserved eggs was eaten completely, and everyone rubbed their round bellies, feeling immensely satisfied.

If one could eat a cold mixed preserved egg every day, it would be a particularly happy affair, wouldn’t it?

After eating and drinking enough, rest well, and then get back to work!

...

...

In the afternoon, Mu Dalang still went along. He said he had nothing much on his own and thought he might as well help with the work, instead of staying at home seeing things he didn’t want to see.

Having lived in the town for so many years, Mu Dalang was more accustomed to a peaceful life.

Feeding sheep, shearing wool, milking them, these were meticulous tasks, and without a quiet environment, he wouldn’t know where to start working.

Yu Si Niang had nothing to do in the afternoon either and wanted to follow Mu Shuangshuang to see how the land in Tie Dao Village was.

The group of four worked on organizing the fields and turning over the soil, surprisingly finishing all the tasks.

Three acres of land were tidied up neatly by the two big men.

Once the organized field is left for two days until the mud settles, then a hole can be dug to sow seeds, wait for them to sprout, grow for a while longer, then water them with manure, causing the planted vegetables to grow very well.

Everyone was busy with sweat dripping, yet they felt immensely happy.

In this world, probably nothing is happier than tending to your own land.

In a farmer’s home, owning an acre of land is much like having insurance at a modern-day job; not only gives peace of mind, it truly provides security.

After a tiring day, Mu Dalang and Mu Shuangshuang said their goodbyes at the Old Mu Family.

He wouldn’t be having dinner at the third branch, wanting to return to the Old Mu Family for dinner, though Mu Shuangshuang tried to keep him, she couldn’t.

However, after Mu Dalang left, a rare guest arrived at home.

Xing Beichen showed up this afternoon and chatted with Mu Dashan all afternoon.

Since being able to walk around, these past few days, he has stopped avoiding strolling in the village. People no longer looked at him strangely, and some even greeted him.

He increasingly liked the people of Er Gui Village.

Yet what he couldn’t stop worrying about was Fu Xiaonan.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, from encountering Fu Xiaonan to later accompanying her to verify whether ghosts existed, Xing Beichen knew that his heart was in turmoil.

But Fu Xiaonan’s heart only held her childhood sweetheart.

Even though Xing Beichen wanted to stay, he must leave.

This time, he’s here to say farewell, and he’ll leave tomorrow.

The money for renting the horse carriage, Mu Shuangshuang already gave to Xing Beichen, wasn’t much, just one tael of silver, but it was enough for him to return to the county. Once back, he’d find a chance to thank Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng.

After resting at home for a while, Mu Shuangshuang began preparing dinner.

Lu Yuanfeng and Xing Beichen were chatting.

Xing Beichen opened by saying he was leaving.

”Fengzi, I may be leaving tomorrow.” As he spoke, Xing Beichen’s eyes showed a thousand unwillingness and helplessness.

Feeling very suppressed inside.

”Come again next time when you can, Shuangshuang and I will entertain you well!”

All good things must come to an end, Lu Yuanfeng understood!

With Lu Yuanfeng’s words, Xing Beichen felt relieved instead.

Though he was leaving, the friendship remained. Whenever he wished, he could return for it.

”Fengzi, thank you and Shuangshuang. I will come back.”

Hopefully, then, he could see Xiao Nan again!

Xing Beichen told himself this inside.

Looking from Mu Shuangshuang’s perspective, Lu Yuanfeng and Xing Beichen standing together showcased that innate military aura.

Both stood straight up.

Lu Yuanfeng’s demeanor was consistently the best among anyone Mu Shuangshuang had met.

Whether it was his sitting posture, standing, or spirit.

Just watching felt like a kind of enjoyment.

Someday, she’d also practice it, for the past life’s things should not be forgotten.

Though her body seemed weak, as long as practice was appropriate, she’d eventually reach her prime.

”Hey, you two, stop standing there, hurry up and help start the fire, I’m going to cook!”

Mu Shuangshuang called out to the two guys outside, and both of them came over.

”Fengzi, start the fire, Xing Beichen help me wash vegetables, no work, no meal!”
