Sisters in the Deep Forest Valley: Many Fun Things

Chapter 126 Hero Saves the Beauty, Timeless

"Hahaha..." The two couldn't help but burst into laughter, attracting the attention of several tables of guests four or five meters away.

"It was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue. Handsome and smart Zhengyong, please don't hold it against us kids." Lin Lanshan said jokingly.

He then blinked at Ning Linlan and said:

"Sister Ning, you heard it all. There are so many good qualities in Brother Zhengyong that it's impossible to list them all, which proves that you didn't misjudge him."

Lin Zhengyong tilted his head, half proud and half embarrassed, and then fell silent.

Ning Linlan said shyly, "I know how good he is. If he hadn't saved my life, we wouldn't be where we are today."

So it was a classic hero saving a damsel in distress? The two sisters stared at her with gossipy eyes, waiting for her to tell the story.

She continued, "A few months ago, when I was coming back from town alone, I encountered two scoundrels who blocked my way."

Just when I was feeling helpless, he happened to pass by and helped chase the people away. I didn't even have a chance to ask his name before he turned and left.

Later, I inquired around and found out that he was from Youxian Village, and then I found him.

"After a while, we got to know each other..." Ning Linlan's eyes were filled with joy and dependence when she thought of that time.

Oh～～～

No wonder her eyes were sparkling; it turns out she was holding:

A thug harasses a beautiful woman, a passing hero comes to her rescue. He turns away without leaving his name, leaving her alone to admire his handsome back – what a dramatic story!

The story of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress is truly timeless!

The two sisters glanced at Ning Linlan, then at Lin Zhengyong. One blushed shyly, the other blushed, neither looking at the other…

Tsk tsk tsk, this fight is really something!

Lin Chunyi said decisively, "This shows that you two, Sister Ning and Brother Zhengyong, are a match made in heaven!"

Lin Lanshan added, "Yes, yes, all we need to do now is prepare the wedding gift money, and then we can wait to attend your wedding banquet!"

"You two young girls, how can you talk about such things? Aren't you ashamed?" Ning Linlan's face turned as red as a boiled shrimp when she heard the words "wedding banquet".

Lin Zhengyong was a little embarrassed, "Ahem, no need for a gift, just remember to come and have a drink!"

"The food's here, guests, be careful, it's hot!" The waiter began serving the dishes, starting with the perfectly cooked, red-brown perilla shrimp...

The group stopped chatting and waited for the waiter to serve the dishes one by one before starting their lunch.

"Linlan, don't just eat vegetables. You're so thin, you need to eat more meat." Lin Zhengyong used serving chopsticks to put a large piece of mutton into her bowl, and then a shrimp...

Ning Linlan looked at the small bowl full of meat, unable to stop it with both hands, and was so anxious that she wanted to grab it out. "That's enough, that's enough, there's no room left in the bowl."

The saccharine smell of love~

The two sisters stood to the side, eating and watching. Like two luminous pearls in the night, they shone brilliantly…

Lin Chunyi, mindful of her wound, only scooped out a spoonful of the tangy and spicy fish soup.

She smacked her lips; the tangy and spicy soup, the tender fish that seemed to slide right down her throat—she wanted another sip…

If it weren't for the impoliteness, my sister probably wouldn't have let her drink even a single spoonful. Oh well, sob sob, I'm already satisfied with just one spoonful.

Lin Zhengyong didn't forget to take care of his younger sisters either. After taking a bite of the venison, he asked:

"Xiao Yi, you guys love spicy food, so why did you only take a sip of this fish soup?"

"I couldn't even taste anything. Would you like me to get you some more?"

"Haha, thank you, Brother Zhengyong. I've been feeling a bit feverish lately, so I need to eat something light," Lin Chunyi said with a dry laugh.

She tasted it and realized it was just sour, spicy, and refreshing!

"Alright, then eat more vegetables." Then he continued eating the venison chops that cost one tael of silver a plate.

There is concern, but not much.

"..." Lin Chunyi didn't know what to say, picked up a piece of mutton, chewed it and swallowed it.

On the entire table, only the plate of venison was decorated with a few leaves, and the lamb was topped with some green cilantro.

There are no green vegetables...

No way! She's not actually suffering from internal heat, why would she eat vegetables?!

Lin Lanshan suppressed a laugh, drank half a bowl of fish soup, and then put it down. No matter how delicious it was, she had to resist; she couldn't let her sister suffer alone.

Ning Linlan delicately took a small bite of mutton, then looked at them with great confusion: Can you eat mutton if you have a sore throat?

The four of them picked up some food and ate, occasionally commenting on which dish was tastier and which had a better flavor.

It took them half an hour to finish all the food on the table.

Lin Zhengyong poured three cups of tea, which the waiter had brought, and gave them to Ning Linlan and the two sisters.

"The food at this fancy restaurant is really delicious; I'm so full." Then he poured himself another glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Ning Linlan took the tea, sipped it twice, and said with a light smile, "My father and mother have brought me here to eat a few times before."

Although the dishes we ordered weren't anything particularly expensive, they all tasted excellent. Especially the Dongpo tofu; I order it every time I come.

“This is the one you pick up the most. Since you like it, pack another one to take home.” Lin Zhengyong got up and went to call the waiter.

As a future devoted husband, Lin Zhengyong never forgot to keep an eye on whether his wife was eating well, even when he was focused on his meal.

Ning Linlan gently tugged at his sleeve, stopping him, "No need, you can't just keep eating whatever you like."

"But you should pack some food for your uncle and aunt to take home."

He felt a bit groggy, like someone just waking up, and scratched his head, saying:

"Oh right, I forgot, hehe. I'll go pay the bill and get some braised venison ribs for Mom and Dad while I'm at it, that's the best!"

The two sisters suddenly remembered what Aunt Zhang had said about her two sons, who had grown up so much but never thought to buy her anything...

Tsk, it has to be a girl, she's just more meticulous than a boy.

Aunt Zhang's two daughters-in-law are both so good. She probably won't have to worry about anything else except taking care of her grandchildren in the future. That's great.

However, they had different opinions about packing up the food!

Lin Chunyi followed, "Wait, Zhengyong, you're treating to this meal today. But my sister and I will pack up the leftovers for Uncle Lin and the others."

"What are you talking about?"

She continued, "Brother Zhengyong, don't be angry, let me tell you first."

Lanshan and I have finished eating, and we still have some errands to run. By the time we head home, it will probably be quite late, so we won't be going over today.

We absolutely have to pay for this takeout food. Zhengyong, remember to help us apologize to Uncle Lin and Aunt Zhang.

Lin Zhengyong looked puzzled. "What's the rush? Is there any danger? Do you need my help?"

The concern from her brother, who was not related to her by blood but whom she instinctively wanted to help... made Lin Chunyi feel warm, just like she always heard from everyone at the village chief's house.

They're not family, but they're closer than family—that's what it means, right?

"It's nothing serious, don't worry, Zhengyong. Remember to tell Uncle Lin and the others for us."
