Chapter 123 Disappointment at One's Lack of Competence 19
Hearing the rooster crowing outside, and knowing it was still dark, Chen Anye, unable to sleep anyway, simply got up.
After getting dressed and quickly washing up, I got on my bicycle and headed out.
It wasn't until they arrived outside the clinic in Dahe Village that Chen Anye came to his senses.
He just couldn't sleep and wanted to stay somewhere closer to the moon. His body was uncontrollably strained, and in the blink of an eye, he was here.
However, he didn't stay at the clinic entrance, as he didn't want to cause Ziyue any gossip among the villagers.
He was familiar with the village, so he went straight past the main entrance and arrived at the west side of the clinic.
There's a small door here that faces the back of the mountain; you're guaranteed no one else will see him from here!
Ziyue was woken up by Xiao Jiu'er.
"Host, host, my dear host~ Your partner is standing there dumbfounded outside the small door on the west side of the house."
Ziyue was a little confused when she heard this, and it took her a moment to react before she left the space.
Upon opening the small door on the west side and seeing someone standing outside, Ziyue couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
They quickly pulled him inside and poured him a cup of hot water.
"Why aren't you sleeping this early in the morning? It's not even fully light yet, what are you standing outside doing?"
Chen Anye blushed as he looked at Ziyue, who was wearing a white cotton nightgown.
"I... I just can't sleep, and I want to stay somewhere closer to you."
Ziyue sighed helplessly at this silly, simple-minded person.
But now that she was awake, she couldn't fall back asleep.
Looking at the stove behind me, I prepared to make some breakfast.
Chen Anye said very proactively, "Ziyue, let me do it, you rest."
"Help me start the fire."
"Okay." Chen Anye sat obediently on the small wooden stool in front of the stove.
Ziyue couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at his tall figure, which seemed so out of place with the low wooden stool beneath him.
Chen Anye looked up, bewildered. "What's wrong?"
Ziyue smiled but remained silent.
Soon, wisps of smoke rose from the chimney. Ziyue first cooked a pot of congee with preserved egg and lean pork, then chopped scallions, cracked eggs, and fried some egg pancakes and ham.
Considering the man's appetite, I also steamed a few meat pies and a few meat buns, a cucumber salad with vinegar, a dish of pickled vegetables, and finally made a dessert with canned fruit.
Chen Anye watched Ziyue's figure moving back and forth, feeling extremely satisfied.
As the dishes were served one by one, Ziyue said, "Eat up and see how it tastes."
Chen Anye couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks, grab an egg pancake, and take a big bite.
"It smells so good, it's so delicious. Ziyue, you're such a good cook."
Hearing the praise, Ziyue smiled slightly, "Hmph, this is nothing, I'll cook a big meal next time."
Chen Anye nodded repeatedly.
But he couldn't bear to let her cook, so he'd do it himself next time.
The two sat together, slowly eating breakfast, and Chen Anye's smile never faded.
After the meal, Chen Anye took the initiative to clean the table and wash the dishes and chopsticks, making sure Ziyue didn't have to touch them.
Ziyue had already made quite a lot, so she packed up the remaining egg pancakes, meat buns, and braised meat pies.
I also found a lunchbox and filled it with preserved egg and lean pork congee for him to take back for Sisi and her brother and sister to have for breakfast.
They ate breakfast quite early today, so at this time, the two siblings probably haven't even started eating yet.
Chen Anye looked at the lunchbox with a hint of jealousy. He didn't want to take the food Ziyue had made back for the brother and sister to eat.
But there's no way around it. If he doesn't deliver it and eats it secretly by himself, then when Sisi comes here and Ziyue asks, wouldn't he be exposed?
Reluctantly, she left home, carrying a packed breakfast, and headed straight to Ayou's house.
When he arrived, Chen Siyou was in the kitchen preparing a meal, and little Chen Sisi was washing up.
Because Chen Siyou also had to go to work at the county's machinery factory, he would get up a little earlier in the morning.
Just as I was about to cook, I saw Chen Anye bring two large lunchboxes into the room.
Chen Siyou raised an eyebrow. "Oh, what's going on so early in the morning? Bringing us siblings a loving breakfast?"
Chen Sisi followed her in, sniffed, and her eyes lit up. "What did you bring? It smells so good!"
Chen Anye reluctantly placed the two lunchboxes on the table. "This is breakfast that your sister Ziyue made and asked you to bring back for the two of you."
"Alright, perfect, no need to fire, but..."
Chen Siyou looked at Chen Anye with an expression that said, "Something's not right. You're hiding something from me."
When did you become so close to that educated youth, Qing? And you even took her breakfast?
What? You're envious? You're lucky you even have anything to eat. Just eat yours!
The two of them were exchanging glances, but little Chen Sisi didn't care about them at all.
Smelling the aroma, I couldn't wait any longer and grabbed an egg pancake with my hand, stuffing it into my mouth until it was full.
"Mmm, it smells so good... Ah, it's so delicious!"
Seeing his sister eating so enthusiastically, Chen Siyou unconsciously grabbed an egg pancake and stuffed it into his mouth as well.
My eyes lit up; it really was delicious and fragrant, much better than what he made.
Seeing the brother and sister enjoying themselves, Chen Anye couldn't resist reaching out to join them.
Little Chen Sisi pushed him away.
"Hey! Anno-nii, didn't you already eat? This is what Ziyue-nee asked you to bring back for us, you're not allowed to take it from us!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly protected the food on the table.
"Hmph, if it weren't for your brother An Ye, would you even have anything to eat?!" Chen An Ye retorted.
"Okay, alright, then you should eat less."
Chen Sisi thought so too. Anyway, it looked like there was quite a lot, so it wouldn't hurt for her brother An Ye to eat a little more.
Chen Anye couldn't help but chuckle at her possessive expression as she looked at her food. "I'm not going to fight you two for it, I'm full!" she said, rubbing her stomach with a smug look on her face.
Chen Siyou rolled his eyes at his good friend's smug look, unable to bear it.
I never would have guessed that my hot-tempered childhood friend would actually find a partner!
This made him even more curious about that Qing Zhiqing.
He's been leaving early and returning late every day lately, and hasn't had a chance to meet that Qing Zhiqing yet.
I had only ever heard about him from my sister, but I had never met him. I never expected to hear the good news from his good friend first.
"Okay, I've delivered the food. I'll be going now."
What are you doing here, buddy? What's there to see? Of course you're going to find his girlfriend.
Watching the person pat their behind and leave, Chen Sisi looked at her brother with a disappointed expression, shaking her head and sighing.
Sigh, her brother is such a good-for-nothing.
Chen Siyou looked at him with a complicated expression. What was this little girl thinking about all day? After you finish eating, get up and go read a book, understand?
Chen Sisi: I'm scared, I'm running away!
