"Eh!"
The mother-in-law beamed with joy:
"Nor Rong, just look after Xiao Yu yourself. There are face towels and toothbrushes in the cabinet under the sink, remember to get them for him."
"I know," Lin Yourong said, sitting up straight.
On the surface, she calmly peeled open the wrapper of the chicken roll.
The mother-in-law turned to look at Yu Huan: "Xiao Yu, this is your home too, make yourself at home!"
Hear the words.
Yu Huan nodded vigorously, like a chick pecking at rice: "Okay, I definitely won't be polite."
Feeling that she was just being a third wheel, the mother-in-law turned around and went back to her room.
Silence fell instantly.
The two of them were scrolling through their phones while eating KFC.
Yu Huan saw that she kept saying that the chicken roll was high in calories, but after finishing the chicken roll, she picked out roasted chicken wings from the bag.
After slurping up the bones, they picked out the popcorn chicken.
Finally, patting his stomach, he exclaimed, "That feels so good! I haven't eaten this much in ages!"
It's clear that this female celebrity is so focused on maintaining her figure that she's been holding back her energy.
Ok.
Finally, a serving of fries was left for Yu Huan.
Yu Huan poked her head out and looked into the bag.
Terrible! Terrible!
They didn't even give us ketchup!
After the two of them cleaned up the KFC double meal, Lin Yourong leisurely went to the restroom to busy herself for a while.
A few moments.
A woman with an oval face and a face mask came out and greeted him, "Xiao Yu, I brought you a towel and a toothbrush."
Yu Huan looked at her; the face mask was much bigger than her face, and it didn't adhere well.
"Okay." He quickly put his phone in his pocket and stood up.
After a quick wash, guided by Lin Yourong, who was sprawled on the sofa applying a face mask, Yu Huan went straight to the guest room to sleep.
Yet one cannot help but sigh.
Women really go to great lengths when it comes to loving beauty.
Even though she was incredibly sleepy, she still forced herself to perk up and do her makeup first.
Yu Huan opened the door, turned on the light switch, and glanced around briefly.
The guest room is about ten square meters, not very spacious.
A double bed, a small desk, and a high-backed chair, with a simple lamp on the bedside table; that's all there is in the room.
The walls were painted a soft off-white, and the overall decor was very warm and inviting.
After washing up, Yu Huan tilted her head and drowsily inhaled the lavender scent from her pillow.
Before her body temperature had even warmed up under the covers, she closed her eyes and instantly drifted off to sleep.
When I opened my eyes again.
The sky is bright.
The morning sun shone on my face, feeling warm and cozy.
Yu Huan took out her phone and checked it; it was only 9:30.
It should be noted that he went to sleep at around 4 a.m., and his sleep quality was exceptionally good. He only slept for five hours, and when he woke up, he was full of energy and felt completely refreshed, as if he had been rebooted.
He rolled out of bed, got dressed, opened the door, and peeked outside.
The living room was quiet and empty, and there was no sound coming from the kitchen either.
Yu Huan could see the whole leopard from a single spot.
The house appears to be a three-bedroom, two-living room apartment. There is no obvious partition between the living room and the dining room, making the space feel open and spacious.
The master bedroom is adjacent to the living room, while the two secondary bedrooms share a wall with their doors closely connected.
It seems that Mr. and Mrs. Lin have gone out and are not at home.
So Yu Huan stood at the door, turned to look at the closed door of Lin Yourong's room, hesitated for a moment, but still did not call out to her.
This morning, he planned to go to the hospital for a check-up to see if the cast could be removed.
The leg inside the cast hasn't been cleaned much in a month; I'm afraid it'll stink!
Yu Huan tried to put her left leg down and took a few slow steps.
My ankle feels a little sore, but it seems to be fine now.
I tiptoed on my left foot, half-walking and half-hopping, and skillfully went to the washroom to brush my teeth and wash my face, then went to the inner bathroom to urinate.
Yu Huan immediately went out.
Instead of going down to the garage immediately, he took the elevator to the first floor and stood in the garden outside.
The magnolia branches and leaves swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, and sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, casting dappled golden light.
Yu Huan breathed in the fresh air, took out her phone, and made a call to Teacher Wu.
Unlike Lao Yu, who would fly into a rage over the slightest disagreement, Teacher Wu was quite patient with him.
He looked up at the sky, which was a pale blue, cloudless, clear and transparent.
"Mom, have you eaten?"
"It's almost 10 o'clock, tell me if I've eaten or not? Just tell me!"
Yu Huan was worried that Teacher Wu's heart couldn't take it if he got straight to the point, so he decided to take it step by step and say things slowly: "It's like this, my boss, you know, said he wanted to invite you and Dad to dinner."
"Isn't that unnecessary? It's too much trouble! We still have to drive for more than an hour. Your dad and I might as well stay home and rest!" "It's necessary, it's necessary!" Yu Huan hurriedly said.
Teacher Wu pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, Old Lin is being too polite."
“It’s not a matter of being polite!” Yu Huan paused, then continued, “Didn’t I need the household registration booklet before? I even took it with me to get our marriage certificate.”
"Get a marriage certificate? What certificate?"
Yu Huan said firmly, "Marriage certificate!"
"Huh!? You got a marriage certificate with whom?"
"That's Uncle Lin's daughter, but now I have to call her father-in-law..."
"Huanhuan, wait a minute, my mind is a bit confused."
"Ok."
The other side fell silent instantly.
Yu Huan heard a hushed conversation, barely audible, followed by Old Yu's deafening shout:
"What a joke!"
Old Yu took the phone and shouted at us, "You little brat, you've already got your marriage certificate, and you didn't even tell us? Does Old Lin know?"
I took a closer look at Lao Yu's tone.
Ok.
The barely suppressed joy seemed blatantly obvious.
Old Yu would come to keep Lin company whenever he had free time, much more frequently than Teacher Wu, and he was very familiar with Old Lin.
Perhaps Teacher Wu didn't reveal that he and Lin Yourong had only known each other for a few days?
“My father-in-law is going to host a banquet for you tomorrow. He only found out later that we got our marriage certificate. He said that since we are in-laws, we should meet briefly and have a meal together.”
"Hmph! We've already got the certificate, there's nothing we can do now," she said, changing the subject, "What time?"
"noon."
"Hehe, alright then, how's your foot recovering now?"
"There's no problem. I'll go check it right away and see if we can remove the cast."
“You’re in your late twenties and have entered the workforce. We don’t need to worry about many things anymore. Just take good care of your health.”
“Okay, Dad.” Yu Huan nodded, then suddenly said, “Don’t tell anyone about You Rong and me yet.”
"You want to keep it a secret, huh? You've gone to college, you should know your place. You got the marriage certificate without even meeting your parents, I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed if word gets out!"
Hearing this, Yu Huan was immediately relieved: "Then I'll hang up now."
"You can hang up now."
After explaining the situation to Lao Yu and Teacher Wu, Yu Huan hung up the phone.
I haven't told them about the most troublesome thing yet.
For example, they had to keep the marriage a secret, couldn't hold a banquet, and couldn't tell anyone their daughter-in-law's name because she was a big star!
Forget it, I'll just be a hothead for once and let Old Lin have a headache.
Anyway, Old Lin is a smooth talker...
I walked straight out of the residential area.
After walking slowly for about 100 meters, I found the shoe store that I had been eyeing for a long time on the side of the street.
I bought a pair of fleece-lined cotton shoes at a clearly marked price, which cost me thirty-five yuan.
Although it looks rustic, it's warm and comfortable.
Regardless of whether the cast can be removed, it's better to have it in hand just in case you don't have shoes to wear later.
He immediately turned around and went to the underground parking garage of the residential complex to drive to the hospital.
After an X-ray examination confirmed the absence of swelling, pain, and longitudinal percussion pain, the tall and robust orthopedic surgeon used a saw to remove the cast from Yu Huan's left foot.
Yu Huan listened to the "cracking" and "banging" sounds coming from the operating room next door, which sounded like construction work.
While enduring the sour smell and wiping my left foot with alcohol wipes, I felt a chill run down my spine.
What kind of Popeye are orthopedic surgeons?
About an hour and a half after I left the house, the good news was that the cast was removed.
The bad news is that my ankle still hurts when I bend it while standing on the ground; it hasn't fully recovered yet.
This wasn't just a simple fracture; his soft tissue was also injured, which is why he stayed in the hospital for more than half a month.
The orthopedic doctor advised him not to overexert himself, not to carry heavy loads, and to only walk lightly for short periods of time.
In other words, it's best to use crutches for a few more days until your left foot gets used to it.
"You just had your cast removed. If you want to drive, I don't recommend driving a manual transmission, but an automatic is fine."
Yu Huan put on her shoes, and upon hearing this, her expression froze: "What if the cast hadn't been removed, and you were driving an automatic car?"
"Two hundred yuan, two cents!" The doctor looked at the monitor without changing his expression or looking up. "Judging from what you're saying, you've been driving these past few days, haven't you? But your left foot isn't your left hand, so you don't need to put it on the steering wheel. I guess you weren't seen."
"In other words, I can drive an automatic car if my left foot is injured but my right foot is fine. But I can't drive it after my left foot is in a cast?"
"That's right."
Hear the words.
Yu Huan felt there was definitely a bug in the system.
Thank the doctor and take your leave.
Upon arriving at the hospital parking garage, Yu Huan immediately threw her crutches onto the back seat, not intending to take them out again.
I'll walk slower, I've had enough of this thing!
After being in a cage for a long time, I can return to nature!
Finally, I've broken free from this constraint!
I'm finally free!
Yu Huan was in an extremely cheerful mood.
