I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

 Chapter 149 Taking Care of You

Wei Lan had something on her mind and tossed and turned until the first rooster crow before she fell asleep. When she opened her eyes again, it was already bright outside.

The voices of Grandma Gu and You Lan could be heard faintly from the kitchen. She rubbed her eyes, changed her clothes, opened the door and walked out: "Grandma, You Lan."

The accommodation environment of the Gu family is many times better than that of Educated Youth Point. Although Wei Lan went to bed late, she slept deeply.

The delicate girl slept a little longer in the morning, but Grandma Gu didn't care at all. When she turned around and saw Wei Lan's face was not very good, with two bright dark circles under her eyes, she was still startled: What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare last night? "

You Lan turned around and looked over, with the same worried look on his face.

"No." Wei Lan shook her head in embarrassment. Of course she would not tell the truth, "The mosquitoes were making a fuss, so I got up to catch mosquitoes for the rest of the night, and the fuss was made for the rest of the night."

Grandma Gu heard some noise last night. When Wei Lan said this, she did not doubt it. Instead, she said: "The mosquitoes in autumn are the most poisonous. Just survive these few days and you will be fine."

Wei Lan went to the backyard to fetch water to wash up, and Grandma Gu followed a few steps behind. "You go back to work, and I'll ask Brother Chao to bring mugwort to fumigate your house."

Wei Lan's face was slightly red and she had a toothbrush in her mouth. She didn't say yes or no, but even so, Grandma Gu knew what she meant.

Grandma Gu already regards Wei Lan as one of her own. There are corn and sweet potatoes on the breakfast table, as well as a bowl of egg custard.

Grandma Gu gave You Lan two spoonfuls of egg custard, leaving most of the bowl in front of Wei Lan.

In this day and age, an egg sent to the supply and marketing cooperative can be sold for five cents each, and a box of matches only costs two cents, which shows how precious it is.

Every household may not be willing to eat one when they are busy with farming. Grandma Gu is worried that Wei Lan will not be used to eating the coarse grains at home, so she can only find ways to enrich the table.

Wei Lan's fingertips holding the corn trembled, her eyes were slightly hot, "Grandma, today is not a holiday, eating eggs is too extravagant."

Auntie Gu knew she was embarrassed, so she immediately smiled and said: "What a waste, it's not for you to eat alone. The old woman hasn't eaten meat for a long time, and her mouth is greedy, so she made it for herself, haha."

Wei Lan's eyes lit up and she pretended not to understand the meaning. She took the egg custard bowl and dug two spoonfuls into Grandma Gu's bowl.

Wei Lan took this spoonful seriously, and after two spoonfuls, there was only a shallow layer of egg custard left in the bowl.

Grandma Gu couldn't stop her, so she clicked her tongue twice and muttered: "Hey, you kid... Why do I eat so well with my old bones?"

Wei Lan smiled and said nothing, holding the corn and gnawing it with relish.

Grandma Gu shook her hands and wanted to put the egg custard into Wei Lan's bowl, but she was afraid that Wei Lan would dislike the egg custard and get her saliva in the bowl. After thinking about it again and again, Grandma Gu gave up, but she still didn't want to eat it, so she turned around and put the eggs away. Most of the soup was poured into Youlan's bowl, "Eat, your sister Lan gave it to you."

Youlan's eyes were filled with joy. She looked at the egg custard and then at Wei Lan, her dark eyes rolling around like a newborn puppy.

The warmth at the dinner table made Wei Lan temporarily forget her troubles. A slight smile appeared on her lips and she said to You Lan, "Eat it. After eating, you will grow taller and you will be a big girl."

You Lan’s face turned red and she nodded slightly.

 After breakfast, Wei Lan and You Lan rushed to wash the dishes together.

The brigade had to harvest wheat before the autumn rain fell in the past two days. Wei Lan was also assigned a job. She didn't dare to delay too much. She went back to the room to get the hat and the sickle she received from the brigade yesterday afternoon and prepared to go to work. She came out to see You Lan sitting down. Twist flower rope on the backyard threshold.

Wei Lan gently waved her hand to attract You Lan's attention, then looked around and whispered: "If your brother comes back, just go to the fields and tell me, you know?"
