Chapter 67: The green monster, part 3

Han Shanyuan woke up bright and early. He needed to go ask for his copper and then visit granny Nuo Nuying's stall and…no, he didn't need to do that anymore! He smiled and pinched himself.

Yes, this was definitely real! He jumped up and made his bed. He had a bed now; he hadn't had a bed ever since his mother died of the fever shortly after Han Fengfan was born.

Today he needed to go to his hiding spot and take all of their keepsakes. He'd ask Wei Zhaohui to clear him some space so that he could put them on display.

He wasn't given his routine for today, so he supposed he would be going to school as usual. The little boy ran to the bathing room and washed in cold water, not wanting to wake up his benefactors.

He put on yesterday's robes on and pulled them around himself. Then he went into the kitchen determined to start on preparing breakfast, only to see Basil and Bjorn already there with Basil steering something delicious smelling in a pot.
