Him and His Stomach [Farming]

P.S. This includes a modern-day farming story: a cozy, healing tale about food, romance, and the simple pleasures of life. Him and His Stomach: Jiang Kaichu's story. A short work coming soon: Him and the Mountain *Please add my upcoming historical farming novel, Meals Every Day, to your collection~~ The story is about a young man who is misdiagnosed with cancer. He can't cook, is picky about food, and has a sensitive stomach. He retreats to a remote, impoverished village, where he meets a rough-edged man next door who grows crops, raises pigs, and herds cattle (though he actually runs a farm) and is an incredible cook. The two fall for each other. Liu Zhinan never thought he would get the cancer everyone talks about. Sure, he doesn't eat much, has irregular meals, stays up late, often drinks at business dinners, and doesn't exercise, but how could he have an incurable disease at such a young age? Hoping to spend his final days at ease, waiting to die, Liu Zhinan quit his job, packed his bags, and randomly asked a travel agency to find him a livable, secluded town. The cemetery there was cheap, and the town was surrounded by mountains and water. On his second day there, Liu Zhinan was sunbathing in a lounge chair in the yard when a huge black dog suddenly came charging in. Terrified, he scrambled up onto a tree branch. A man wearing a black tank top, his muscles bulging, leaned over the fence from next door, a cigarette in his mouth, and pointed at the dog. "Come over for a meal? It thinks you're cooking shit at home." Completed farming novels: Three Meals from the Countryside, I Found a Pretty Little Husband Upcoming historical farming novel: Meals Every Day Bai Yu, a young man, visits relatives in a neighboring village, where a tall, burly fellow takes a liking to him and asks outright if Bai Yu would become his husband. Bai Yu is startled and runs away, his face red. A few days later, the man comes with a matchmaker to ask for Bai Yu's hand. This time, Bai Yu doesn't run off shyly. He nods and says yes. Though they marry in a hurry, the two make a warm and happy life for themselves in the mountains. Gentle rain falls in the mountains, mist hangs in the air, an oil lamp glows, and two people sit inside the house. Reader's guide: 1. Two men, eating, eating, eating. Eating, sleeping, falling in love, and fooling around with a few friends. Life is happy and peaceful in Qingtong Bay. 2. This was supposed to be a short story of 100,000 words, but I couldn't stop, so it may end up closer to 200,000. 3. This is my first attempt at this kind of style and subject matter, so it may have some flaws. A bow~ Important note!!! The plot requires it, so the stomach cancer diagnosis is very inaccurate!! Also, he went to a dodgy hospital!! A dodgy hospital!!! Theme: Take care of your stomach and protect your health.
