NovelEnglishChapter 282
Had it been before, Lin Lan would have been fine. But since something did kind of happen, she felt anxious and it would most definitely arouse suspicion.
“We’re coming, why are you shouting? Let’s eat quickly.”
She broke free from Han Qingsong’s hand.
Han Qingsong said, “Should I eat first or take a shower?”
“E-eat first, I’m hungry,” Lin Lan hurriedly poured some water and washed her hands.
Han Qingsong nodded, “Then I’ll take a shower before going to bed.”
He spoke very calmly and Lin Lan felt tingly, feeling like he meant something else as well. But then again, how could someone as old-fashioned as him hold a deeper meaning to his words? That was impossible.
Entering the house to eat, the children glanced at them both.

Lin Lan, “!!!”
She hurriedly said, “No, no, it’s because of the dry weather that made me bite the skin of my mouth a lot.”
Good heavens, this excuse is absolutely terrible, she subconsciously gave Han Qingsong a look.
His face was normal, looking handsome and serious as always, but his eyes were much softer.
When she looked over, his eyes immediately caught her gaze.
Lin Lan hurriedly sat upright.
Sanwang looked at her suspiciously and suddenly, he looked like he had an epiphany, “Mom, what did you sneakily eat?”
He immediately stood up and looked at Lin Lan’s face.
Lin Lan’s face suddenly turned red, “What nonsense are you talking about? All the food is at home.”
Sanwang scratched the scar on his forehead, “Hehe, I think mom’s mouth looks like it was burnt from eating something.”
What the hell! Lin Lan felt like she wasn’t feeling that great and secretly gave Han Qingsong a sideways glance.
He ate calmly, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.
Lin Lan coughed, “Have you finished your homework?”
Erwang and Maisui replied earnestly, “I finished it in school.”
Dawang rolled his eyes and looked at Erwang, who returned a knowing look.
Sanwang frowned, “Mom, you have to tell the teacher how busy the autumn harvest is— we still have to go to work, so how is there enough time for homework? Really…” He looked at Xiaowang, “Why don’t you go to school?”
Xiaowang, who was burying his head to eat, raised his head, “Huh?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLin Lan tapped Sanwang’s head lightly with chopsticks, “Hurry up and do your homework. If you come in last for the finals, you can see if your father will teach you a lesson.”
Sanwang’s expression changed as he stole a glance at his father. Suddenly, he found that his father’s mouth was also swollen. In fact, even his ears were red.
He and his mother must have eaten something delicious!
How unacceptable!
Being an adult was really nice— he wouldn’t have to go to school and could do whatever he wanted. He could also eat delicious food, but not give it to the children.
Nice.
After that, Lin Lan and her family were very busy with the autumn harvest— building and plastering the walls, tidying up the new house, setting up the kang, and doing housework.
In two days, the set up of the walls were done and the mason no longer needed to be there, leaving just the carpenter’s work left, who made the windows and furniture by hand. It was estimated that the windows could probably be installed during the Mid-Autumn Festival and the rest of the furniture would be made slowly.
In this way, they could move in by the Mid-Autumn Festival and the rest of the places could be cleared when they started living in it.
Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the County asked Han Qingsong to go to a meeting and Lin Lan had him ride the bicycle. Being on the way, he also went to the County Supply and Marketing Cooperative to see if he could buy anything without a ticket.
