Chapter 31 The Prettiest Girl (2)_1

Lin Yuan gratefully accepted it, promising she would definitely repay the favor in the future, before leaving without further delay.

Aunt Chen leaned against the door, watching Lin Yuan's retreating figure, and sighed unconsciously. She was aware of the difficulties at Lin Yuan's house these past few days, but had not dared to visit due to her old man's tyranny; yet the girl didn't complain at all. Her old man and Zhu Zi didn't like the girl much, but Aunt Chen always felt that Lin Yuan was a good kid, full of loyalty and gratitude.

By the time Lin Yuan got back home, it was time to cook dinner. She put some water in the pot for Lin Wei to start heating, while she scooped cornmeal into a wooden basin, stirred it with some cold water to make a paste, ready to be added to the boiling water later. There were some wild vegetables left from lunch that she cleaned and chopped, to be added later as well.
