After Shi Yanning returned home, she talked to Grandma Huo about buying a house. She felt relieved when she saw her grandmother.

"Grandma, I have something to discuss with you."

Gu Jinlan looked curious: "What's the matter?"

"Shall we go to town and buy a house? I saw a two-story house today. It's very suitable for our family. I've already made an appointment with the owner and we'll go there tomorrow."

Grandma Huo was surprised that her granddaughter-in-law said she wanted to buy a house one day after she went out. When she heard her granddaughter-in-law say that she wanted to live with her family, she remembered that her family had not given any betrothal gift, so she nodded in agreement.

Shi Yanning didn't expect Grandma Huo to be so easy to talk to. Why did she accommodate her so much? She was almost the same as her own grandmother.

The two of them had dinner together in the evening without telling anyone, and went out early the next morning without even having breakfast.

It was still the same ox cart, but because it was not market time, the ox cart arrived earlier than usual. The person driving the ox cart was Uncle Li, who had fled here.

"Brother Li, are you going to town?"

"Big sister, are you going to town to buy meat again? In the whole village, you are the only family that buys meat regularly."

"We want to go shopping and buy some seasonings."

"Okay, get on, we're off."

There was no market today, so there were only Shi Yanning and Gu Jinlan in the ox cart. Gu Jinlan apparently had a good relationship with the cart driver, Uncle Li.

The two chatted for a while. It turned out that Uncle Li’s son was Huo Yuanqi’s father. Uncle Li was fleeing at the time and was a live-in son-in-law.

But he is capable, and Grandma Huo is not a person with a bad temper. The two of them depend on each other and support each other. After decades, they have rarely quarreled.

Because they had similar experiences, the older generation had a good relationship, and there was a gap in the middle, and the grandchildren Huo Yuanqi and Huo Chenzhou also had a good relationship.

"Your Chenzhou has made the right choice in marrying a daughter-in-law. I think Shi Yatou is very good, with clear and upright eyes. Yesterday, some women wanted to say some nonsense, but your Shi Yatou kept smiling at them, so they didn't dare to say anything."

Could Shi Yanning say that he was cart-sick at the time? In fact, he didn't know about it.

Gu Jinlan turned around and asked, "Ningning, is what your Grandpa Li said true? Who wanted to bully you yesterday?"

Shi Yanning was touched by Grandma Huo's support for her, but she still shook her head, "Grandma, I'm fine. I'm not being bullied."

"Okay, then if you get bullied, you must tell grandma. Chenzhou told me to treat you well before he left."

Shi Yanning didn't expect that Huo Chenzhou, the straight man in the book, actually had this side of him.

My mind recalled the scene of the two of them interacting before, just in one short night and one morning.

Huo Chenzhou's abdominal muscles, the low growl in his ear, and the hug before he left all made her blush for some unknown reason.

My heartbeat quickened! Oh no, she might be the legendary love-brained person.

"If you believe a man who says he loves you, I don't need to look at your horoscope to tell you that you will definitely get divorced eight times in your life!"

"If a man's words are trustworthy, even a sow can climb a tree."

"A wise man does not fall in love, and the king has learned a lot along the way."

"Women in the new era will not bow down to petty love!"

"Women believe in love, Wang Baochuan digs wild vegetables!"

Shi Yanning's heart stopped beating, his face stopped red, and he felt much more comfortable!

"Ningning, take me to that place to have a look."

"it is good."

Shi Yanning and Gu Jinlan walked for five minutes and arrived at the unique new brick house in the center of the town.

"This is a good location, the position is good, the house is quite new, and this street is also good. This should have been the center in the past."

Gu Jinlan's ancestors were royal chefs, so they had bought a lot of land and shops. Now, according to her requirements and the business philosophy she learned from her mother.

"Ningning, you have a really good eye. This is it."

Mrs. Liu, who was waiting for Shi Yanning, saw from afar that Shi Yanning was followed by an old woman, and the two were talking and laughing.

"Is this your grandma? You two have such a good relationship."

"Yes, auntie, this is my grandma. Come with me to see it."

"Okay, okay, yes, there is a consultant. Buying a house is not a trivial matter. My son just bought it without telling us. He only notified us to come over after he bought it."

Shi Yanning certainly knew that this was not a complaint, but a statement about how filial and capable his son was.

Of course, Grandma Huo quickly responded with some words of praise and envy.

Gu Jinlan looked at the second floor and found it had good lighting and a large space. Her grandson could also live in the town when he came back in the future.

The decision was made immediately so that the great-grandson could have a place to go to school.

When the three of them went to the town commune to transfer their household registration, Gu Jinlan directly gave the money and asked Shi Yanning to sign. The two of them refused, and then Old Lady Liu realized that the old woman was actually the girl's grandmother.

Even the staff was stunned by this relationship for a long time before they came to their senses and said, "This girl is so lucky!"

Grandma Huo said quickly: "Yes, yes, our Huo family is blessed!"

Shi Yanning immediately got the property deed and the key. The two of them put everything in order, locked the door, went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some seasonings, and returned to Huojia Village.

I met some villagers on the way, greeted them casually, and asked them to buy seasonings.

When the two returned to the Huo family, Mother Huo quickly poured water for them, and Grandma Huo took a few gulps of water.

The news was announced at the dinner table: "We just bought a house in town."

"what?"

"Ahem ~ Old lady, don't you have a fever?" Mr. Huo was drinking porridge and choked accidentally. He quickly stopped coughing and asked.

"Mom, you mean buying a house?"

The three of them looked at Gu Jinlan, thinking they had heard it wrong.

"Yes, I heard it right. We are buying a house in a great location. This house belongs to Ningning. Just consider it as a betrothal gift!"

Mr. Huo knew that what his wife said must be true, so he said nothing and continued to eat.

Mr. Huo was surprised for a moment, and then he continued to eat like Mr. Huo.

As for Huo's mother, she was extremely happy. Their family now had a house in the town. Her grandson could go to school in the town in the future. He would not be like her, who had never been to school and was illiterate!

When Grandma Huo announced the news, Shi Yanning drank his porridge and ate his vegetables seriously without saying a word.

Buying a house is a big deal in the eyes of rural people today, and the money involved is not small, so she was a little confused.

Grandpa Huo is in good health. He can fetch water, chop firewood, and do other work done by the young and strong people in the team, such as carrying loads, with ease.

She knew how Grandma Huo cooked. She must be the descendant of an imperial chef. Grandma Huo never bothered about family matters or tried to be everyone's elder.

Dad Huo loves Mom Huo the most. He doesn’t see anything special about her. Mom Huo is just an ordinary farm woman, but she and Dad Huo learn things very quickly. If Grandma Huo does something in front of them once, they can replicate it very quickly.

Suddenly I felt that there seemed to be no ordinary people in the Huo family. She was so ordinary. What kind of family did she marry into?

Just as he was thinking about it, Grandma Huo suddenly looked over. The others were silent and the table suddenly became very quiet.

When Shi Yanning came back to his senses, Gu Jinlan looked at Shi Yanning and asked, "Ningning, I think your tongue is the most sensitive among all of us, and you have a lot of ideas. From today on, you will be a food taster and give suggestions. Is that okay?"

Shi Yanning nodded and said yes. Of course she was willing. In this age of food and clothing shortage, being a food taster was like fulfilling her dream from her previous life.

Gu Jinlan added: "I want you and your parents to cook with me."

Shi Yanning was stunned this time. Cooking? She? ?

Gu Jinlan was worried that she had misunderstood: "You can just raise different opinions to your parents and they will be responsible for it."

Now she understood, Shi Yanning agreed with both hands, she liked doing this.

In the following time, as long as they were not working, Mr. and Mrs. Huo would learn to make pastries. Shi Yanning would try the pastries, nod or shake his head, and sometimes even give comments.

The extra ones would be sold in town by Grandma Huo and Grandpa Huo. After returning, Grandpa Huo continued to fetch water and chop firewood, with Grandma Huo guiding him.

Shi Yanning stayed indoors for a month and her figure became visibly rounder.
