Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack-Chapter 1283 - 1263: Nourishing Soup

The night was dark and windy, the red candles flickered, and it was a good night’s sleep.

The next morning, Qianqian was sent by Yue Tingyu to deliver nourishing soup to each newlywed room.

Though Qianqian wanted to refuse, seeing Yue Tingyu’s earnest look, she reluctantly went.

The first stop was Luo Yanran and Qin Nuan’s room, since they had the closest relationship, it wouldn’t be too awkward.

But standing at the door, she was still full of embarrassment, not knowing whether to knock or not.

"Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-Law, are you up yet?" Qianqian’s face was bright red, secretly cursing her overly acute hearing as she heard Qin Nuan’s gentle complaints inside: "Grandma asked me to bring you something to eat."

"Up, Qianqian, wait a moment!" Luo Yanran’s voice sounded, and soon the door opened. Luo Yanran appeared vibrant, still dressed in red attire, clearly not having had time to change: "Why so early?"

"Grandma made me come, I didn’t want to." Qianqian said with a tearful look, full of grievance: "It was my brother who dragged me out of bed."

"Look at you, so aggrieved, why are you only carrying a bowl of soup?" Luo Yanran chuckled, gently patting Qianqian’s head.

"You think it’s for you? Grandma wants you to go eat and not trouble my sister-in-law." Qianqian rolled her eyes: "Has Sister-in-law finished dressing?"

"Almost..." Luo Yanran touched his nose: "She’s shy, don’t tease her."

Qianqian nodded, shooed Luo Yanran away, carried the soup with indifference, and entered the room.

Qin Nuan frowned, struggling to get up.

She looked tired and weary, contrasting Luo Yanran’s energetic demeanor; she seemed ready to sleep for three days and nights due to exhaustion.

Qianqian hurried over, placed the soup on the table, and supported her: "Why are you getting up? Grandma was worried you’d insist on getting up, that’s why she sent me. Just lie down." With a smile, the intent of blessing was clear in her eyes.

"Your Fourth Brother is not human!" Qin Nuan looked at Qianqian, shy for a moment then said through gritted teeth: "Keep him outside."

"He’s gone to eat, I didn’t let him come in, I’ll deal with him later; don’t worry, I’m on your side." Qianqian giggled: "Want me to give you a massage?"

"Go, now you’re teasing me?" Qin Nuan said helplessly with a flushed face: "Pass me the soup."

"Um, Grandma said not to drink too much, it’s nourishing soup, none for me." Qianqian stuck out her tongue, carefully handed it to Qin Nuan and let her drink up.

Her body carried the scent of shower gel, evidently Luo Yanran had bathed her too.

Tucking in the quilt corners, she placed her prepared gift under Qin Nuan’s pillow and closed the door.

Seeing Luo Yanran rushing back, Qianqian rolled her eyes: "Afraid I’d bully your wife?"

"Stop it, is Fourth Sister-in-Law asleep?" Luo Yanran blushed, but his dark face made it hard to see clearly.

"Yes, so don’t disturb her, and yeah, take it easy, my Fourth Sister-in-Law is frail, if she can’t appear tonight, Grandma will annihilate you." Qianqian leisurely walked away, leaving Luo Yanran embarrassed: Where did this little girl learn all this?

Qianqian didn’t linger; she went to other rooms carrying soup, proving that men and women are different species, vividly contrasting energetic and exhausted.

Returning to Yue Tingyu’s side, Qianqian looked dissatisfied: "Grandma, you did it on purpose, right? Making me afraid of marriage."

"How could I." Yue Tingyu laughed awkwardly: "Are your sisters-in-law all okay?"

"They’re all asleep, looks like they didn’t sleep all night." Qianqian pouted. She was still a minor, wandering into newlywed rooms—

If she saw something she shouldn’t, who would she complain to?

"You’ve worked hard." Yue Tingyu chuckled twice, joy evident.

Quietly leaving, clutching food back to the courtyard: "I’m just a foot runner’s fee, Grandma neither cherishes nor loves, alas."

"Sister, I love you!" An Hao appeared out of nowhere again: "Mom asked me to call you home for dinner."

"Hm?" Qianqian was taken aback, then nodded: "I’ll first deliver food to the two big brothers, want to come with me, An Hao?" Though An Hao was small and frail, in Nine Heavens Pavilion, no one dared trouble him. Hence, no one stopped his random wanderings. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Okay."

Entering the neighboring yard, she saw food already present, raised her eyebrows: "Who’s so thoughtful, delivered earlier than me?"

Huangfu Yihui raised his eyebrows: "Your brother, told us not to take you away too early."

"... He really has nothing better to do." Realizing it was probably asked before she delivered, she pouted: "I’m going to Mom’s for dinner, are you coming?"

"No, we’ve arranged with your brother." Yan shook his head, glanced at An Hao: "Your sticky Bean Bun really sticks..."

"Yeah, genuine." Qianqian put the tray down: "If you need anything, just find my brother, I’m not as reliable."

After a few instructions, she led An Hao down the mountain.

An Hao took the path less traveled, not intending for others to see, with a decisiveness that led Qianqian home.

"Mom, Sister’s home." An Hao announced upon arrival, holding Qianqian’s arm, happy as could be.

"Come in, Qianqian, take your brother to wash his hands." An Zilan’s voice came from the side room, busy with cooking.

Qianqian quickly responded.

Ever since returning, besides delivering gifts and saying hello, Qianqian hadn’t shown up, due to someone dissatisfied with the current treatment.

An Zilan thought it was great, the place was peaceful, and offered enough education; food and clothes were delivered, to do whatever one wished, no nine-to-five worries, desires granted, apart from a lack of entertainment, everything else was fine.

Luo Shufan was also once held up for a similar talk, but he disagreed.

Unwilling to cultivate, he hoped the children would gain power and authority, to take over village management.

Yet no one considered, the place was controlled by those in charge, how could just anyone take control?

Lin Xu too avoided suspicion by going fishing early morning; Lin Jiayou generally wasn’t home, accustomed to this trio family dynamic.

"Mom, what delicious food smells so good." Qianqian sniffed upon entering the side kitchen, looking eager, provoking An Zilan’s amused chuckles.

An Hao pouted: "All your favorites, Mom loves Sister most."

"Then you?" Qianqian asked amusedly looking at An Hao.

"Of course, I love..." beckoning Qianqian to squat down.

Qianqian assumed it was to avoid An Zilan hearing, instead, a wet kiss landed on her cheek with a crisp voice echoing: "Love Sister most."
