Chapter 1122: 039 Zhuangzi_3

As for the space behind the back courtyard, there was a large empty area where traces of various flowers and plants were faintly visible. It seemed that as He Guangming had mentioned, the old owner was indeed someone who loved his garden, and it was apparent he had planted a vast variety here.

Lin Yuan was concerned about the soil in the yard and moved forward a few steps to pinch a small clump of earth to feel it, confirming that it indeed was much better than the soil quality in the vineyard outside.

Xia Zheng took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands and asked with a soft chuckle, "Feeling relieved now?"

Lin Yuan pursed her lips and nodded, "Mhm, I wouldn’t have been at ease without seeing this yard for myself. Now I am, as it’s indeed spacious. Even if my grandparents come, there will be enough room for them to stay."

That was indeed true. When they came before, the two of them specifically walked through the back courtyard. There were four standalone small courtyards, two each to the east and west. In this way, her eldest uncle and second uncle could each have one, her aunt another, leaving one for her two cousins to stay in.

As for her grandparents, they could live in the large house in the front courtyard, and there was also a small yard there for visitors to temporarily stay if needed in the future.

They were all one family, having lived together in Liu Family Village without the particularities of those in the Capital city.

Moreover, Jeng Ruyue was currently pregnant, so if they really came to the Capital city, it was certain that her second uncle and his wife couldn’t make it, as Lady Fan would surely not feel at ease about her daughter-in-law’s condition and would stay to look after her. If the grandmother didn’t come, would the grandfather come alone?

The answer was negative.

Thus, the ones who would really come to the Capital city would only be her eldest uncle’s family and her aunt. As for whether her two cousins would come, Lin Yuan could not be sure.

After walking around the yard, they returned to the front courtyard. Although He Guangming had given them the keys to the main gate, each of the small courtyards was also locked separately, and he hadn’t brought all the keys with him, so those small yards were inaccessible.

Fortunately, the living room in the front yard was unlocked, so the two of them went to sit there for a while.

Like the simple lines in the yard, the living room was also very simplistic, with only the necessary tables and chairs and not much else in the way of furniture.

"Heh, it seems this room is cleaned every day." Xia Zheng casually wiped the table surface and found his finger was clean, without any dust, and he couldn’t help but smile.

Having come out early in the morning, Lin Yuan was now tired, hungry, and thirsty. If it weren’t for concern that the Lizheng might harm He Guangming, they would not have waited until now to not return to the city.

Seeing the chairs, Lin Yuan promptly sat down, casually massaging her swollen legs, and said to Xia Zheng, "If it’s cleaned every day, I don’t think it’s just He Guangming’s daughter doing it alone. Look, everywhere in this room is spotless, how can one person do it all by herself?"

Xia Zheng laughed, sitting down next to her and said softly, "I don’t care about others, but you certainly can’t do these chores. I really can’t bear to have you cleaning all the time."

While they were talking, suddenly they heard a crisp voice from outside, "Excuse me, are Young Master Xia and Miss Lin inside?"

It was someone seeking them, but in He family village, they hardly knew anyone.

Lin Yuan looked up curiously, and Xia Zheng also glanced over, confused. They saw a man and a woman swiftly walking in. The man was of average build and quite handsome, while the woman was somewhat thin but had a very rosy and healthy face. The two of them, standing together, might not be a match made in heaven, but they certainly made a handsome couple.

Upon seeing Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng, the woman’s face lit up with joy and she said with a smile, "Are the two of you Young Master Xia and Miss Lin?"

Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng nodded, "Indeed we are, and you are...?"

After asking, Lin Yuan glanced at the small basket on the woman’s arm and had some realization, "Are you the daughter of Village Chief He?"

He Xiaodong grinned, setting her small basket on the side table and nodded, "Father was right, Miss Lin is indeed intelligent. He Guangming is my dad, and my name is He Xiaodong."

She then pointed to the man by her side who hadn’t spoken but was just smiling and said, "This is He Chengfang, he is, well..."

He Xiaodong hesitated, unsure whether to tell Lin Yuan he was her future husband or simply a friend.

But Lin Yuan already seemed to have realized and teasingly said, "Is this Village Chief He’s son-in-law? Village Chief He has always been full of praise for you!"

He Chengfang appeared to be a rather shy man, certainly not as talkative as He Xiaodong. He laughed embarrassedly and openly admitted, "Yes, I am Village Chief He’s son-in-law."
