Xia Songlan immediately loosened her lips.

It wasn't because of Ning Jingmo's words, but because she was a little frightened by his burning eyes.

He forced his lips into a fake smile.

He waved his hand toward Ning Jingmo, “Jingmo, it’s late, since you can’t go to my house to visit grandma.

Why don’t we just separate here! I still have to go back to cook for my grandma and brother.”

Ning Jingmo didn't expect to be separated so soon, and felt reluctant to leave, "Do we have to go home so early?

Didn’t I just get off work not long ago?

Why don't we go over there again? Or maybe go see a movie."

As he spoke more, Xia Songlan's eyes widened wider, and her gaze drifted towards the intersection uncontrollably.

All the courage I had to propose just now seemed to have been blown away by the cold wind.

Xia Songlan shivered involuntarily, and then sneezed twice in succession.

She refused repeatedly: "Forget it, it's so cold, we should go home quickly, grandma is hungry."

Ning Jingmo felt a little disappointed, but he didn't want to embarrass Xia Songlan, "Okay then, our little Isatis should go home quickly.

It's a bit cold outside. I see your face is red from the cold."

Xia Songlan was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she just waved her hand and quickly left towards home.

Ning Jingmo was still immersed in the joy of being proposed to, and the heat in his heart still made him overjoyed.

Looking at Xia Songlan's two short legs that were constantly moving, he sighed to himself, "Did I scare that girl?"

Why are you running so fast? There are no bad guys behind you. 】

He subconsciously turned around and looked behind him. They were the only two people in the entire alley.

In the quiet evening, you can still hear the sound of Xia Songlan's feet stepping on the snow.

Although Ning Jingmo behaves so naturally in front of Xia Songlan, he actually has no idea how to get along with girls.

He has been in the army since he was 16 years old, and the people he interacts with most are soldiers.

I have never been in a relationship or pursued a girl since I was a child.

His relationship with Xia Songlan was entirely based on instinct.

Xia Songlan's beauty certainly attracted him, but if they were not an engaged couple.

Jing Jingmo might not appear in front of her again after helping Grandpa Kang yesterday. Even if she appears, she will pretend not to know her.

It was because he knew that Xia Songlan was his fiancée that he acted so naturally, relaxed, and even free-spirited in front of her.

You could also say that he is just like a young man who is in love for the first time, rushing forward recklessly, relying solely on the passion in his heart.

Although Xia Songlan didn't say it, Ning Jingmo knew that her sudden proposal must have been due to difficulties.

But she didn't say anything, and he decided not to ask anymore.

He was even secretly happy in his heart that Xia Songlan at least knew to come to him for help instead of looking for other men.

He returned to his unit with this secret joy in his heart.

Ning Jingmo had a rare vacation these days, and he didn't expect that a good deed would solve his lifelong issue.

He has always been decisive in his work. The first thing he did after returning to the unit was to submit his marriage application impatiently.

Over there, Xia Songlan hurried back home.

By the time I opened the door of my house, I was already out of breath from running.

Grandma sat quietly by the fire, wearing glasses and reading a book with a very focused look on her face.

Hearing the sound, he turned his head to look at Xia Songlan, ""

What's wrong? Why are you running so fast, Isandra?

"Grandma~" Xia Songlan smiled and shook her head, "It's too cold outside, walk faster, you won't feel cold."

She went back to her room and hung her bag on the wall, putting away her scarf and gloves.

Then I walked to the fire, warmed my hands and asked about my grandmother's day at home.

It snowed these two days and it was a bit rushed to take the bus. Grandma felt sorry for Xia Songlan, so she didn't let her run back and forth at noon and just made a simple meal at home.

Hearing his granddaughter's concerned inquiry, he pointed to the pancakes left over from his lunch on the table and asked her to look at them.

"I wanted to eat pancakes for lunch, so I made five. I ate one for myself and Chuanbai ate three. I left one for you.

How about my pancakes? "

Xia Songlan walked over and picked up the pancake and commented on it carefully. "This pancake looks just right in size and thickness.

It also has shredded carrots and eggs in it.”

Xia Songlan put the plate down again, tore off a corner, put it in her mouth, and tasted it carefully.

"Hmm~ It tastes really good, salty and sweet, soft and sticky, it's definitely my grandma's cooking.

There are thousands of people making pancakes in this world, but only my grandma’s pancakes are the best for me.”

That expression was so sincere, as if he had eaten some delicious food, and his face was full of happiness.

Grandma was made happy by Xia Songlan's coaxing. She smiled and said, "You are just a girl who knows how to make grandma happy! How can it be so good?"

"But it tastes good to me, so good." Xia Songlan shook her head in disapproval, "This is made by my beautiful grandma, who personally mixed the noodle sauce, cut the vegetables, and spread it.

If grandma still doesn’t believe it, she can ask Chuanbai, he will definitely say that the pancakes made by grandma are the best.”

“Pfft~” Grandma laughed, “You are such a naughty girl.”

The mother and daughter soon began to chat and laugh together.

Xia Songlan talked with her grandmother for a while and felt a little warmer.

Then he said to his grandmother, "Grandma, I'm going to go see Grandpa Kang and will be back to cook soon."

Grandma pointed to an IV bottle on the table and said, "I've already cleaned that bottle. Take it to Grandpa Kang to use."

It’s cold now, and many families are filling infusion bottles with hot water to warm their beds.

Although my grandmother seldom goes out to talk with neighbors, she does care about them, but she is not good at expressing it.

Xia Songlan smiled, picked up the infusion bottle and went to Grandpa Kang's house.

Niu Li happened to have a day off today, so she stayed at home to take care of Grandpa Kang alone.

At noon, Kang Shengchen brought back a bone. Although there was not much meat, the bone soup made from it was very fragrant.

As soon as Xia Songlan entered the door, she smelled the aroma of big bones.

She greeted Niu Li with a smile, "Aunt Niu is making bone soup, it's delicious."

Hearing the sound, Niu Li hurried out of the kitchen, rubbing her hands on her apron and greeting Xia Songlan.

"Woad is here, come inside and warm up. I made some bone soup. You can bring some back to your grandmother when you leave."

"No need, Aunt Niu, let Grandpa Kang drink it. He needs nourishment now."

Grandpa Kang heard Xia Songlan's voice from the inner room and asked, "Songlan is here?"

Song Lan walked in with a smile and walked to Grandpa Kang's bedside, handing him the infusion bottle first.

"Grandpa Kang, this is something my grandmother specifically asked me to bring to you. Just add some hot water to warm the bed."

Grandpa Kang took it happily and said, "Oh, this is a good thing, and it's hard to find. It's because your grandma still misses me."

His face was full of wrinkles when he smiled, his eyes were almost invisible, and his mouth was missing two teeth.

Niu Li took it and boiled the inside with hot water first to avoid adding hot water directly, which would break the bottle.

After the bottle wall was heated, hot water was added and the bottle was wrapped in a hot towel and handed to Grandpa Kang.

Grandpa Kang held it in his arms and said, "Well, this is much more comfortable than holding a hot water bottle.

I asked your uncle Kang to find two for me before, but that guy, who doesn’t like to trouble others, bought me a hot water bottle instead.”

As he spoke, he took out a hot water bottle from under the quilt and held it up for Xia Songlan to see.

Xia Songlan smiled and said, "Hot water bottles are indeed more convenient and safer than infusion bottles. Uncle Kang is also very filial."
