C44 (1/2)

Mian Niang's heart skipped a beat, and then she remembered that the only person who appeared at her doorstep in the morning was Gu La's follower.

She wasn't sure if her mother-in-law really knew anything. He was flustered and didn't know how to reply.

He could only look at his mother-in-law doubtfully: ”Who is it, the one riding the horse, is he Young Master Gu's follower?”

”You know him?”

”I've seen them twice. Last time, they knocked over the tofu.”

tofu hyacinth stared fixedly at her, as if he had to find something out from her face. ”Why didn't you say it last time?”

”You didn't ask.”

”You …”

tofu hyacinth was choked by her words and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

”You too. This child was drenched in such a heavy rain, and his leg was twisted. He didn't even drink a mouthful of hot water when he entered the room. What's the matter? Why can't you let this child rest before asking?” You don't feel well yourself, so you have to say it now. ”

May-Second Aunt couldn't bear to see her like this. It was more like wanting to shatter the filth on her daughter-in-law.

”That's right, elder sister-in-law, it looks like Mian Niang is very obedient. If you say it like that, don't scare the child.”

Ever since Mian Niang came into the room, the Elementary Scholar had not said a single word. If it was anyone else, no matter which direction they were facing, they would at least say something when being interrogated like this, but the Elementary Scholar's expression made it seem as if he was the real outsider, with a strange glint in his eyes, as if he was hoping that his old lady would be able to ask something from Mian Niang's mouth.

Fifth Aunt couldn't help but mutter in her heart, it seems like the relationship between husband and wife isn't that harmonious.

tofu hyacinth was not willing to give up at this point, so the moment she opened her mouth, the other three sister-in-law immediately changed the topic. They could only stare at Mian Niang helplessly and shut their mouths.

Fortunately, he could already eat the apricot blossom rice, and tofu hyacinth was hungry for a long time. He finally ate a mouthful of hot food, and temporarily threw all those useless things to the back of his mind.

A house full of women, the Elementary Scholar was a man who valued honor and honor. After eating, he went back to his room.

One family, three patients, what to do?

Second Uncle Mei only said a few polite words before pretending to shove him aside. However, Mian Niang was the one that kept his, even though it was troublesome, but he felt very ashamed. He still rushed over to help Xing Hua, but Xing Hua then rushed back to her own room.

When May-Second Aunt returned home, the first thing she did was to go to her youngest son's room and ask the idiot about finding Mian Niang. Unfortunately, the idiot only said a few simple words, ”We met on the mountain.” He didn't want to say another word. Seeing that the rain had stopped, the little rascal discussed with Abba about finding someone to help him carry the wild boar down the mountain.

It should be a good thing that she did not ask him anything, but for some reason, May-Second Aunt felt unsettled, as if something was going to happen. Seeing that the apricot flower had returned, she wanted to whisper to her daughter-in-law, but was afraid that her daughter-in-law would think too much, so it would not be good if she caused some more trouble, so she decided to suppress these words in her heart, and followed her daughter-in-law to boil some water, waiting for the wild boar on the mountain to carry it down.

It took a lot of effort for seven or eight men and four hundred kilograms of wild boars to be brought back. By the time they were ready, the sun had already set.

Once the meal was done, the men, women, and children gathered together to eat the wild boar meat along with the sorghum rice. The fragrance was so fragrant that oil was flowing out of their mouths, leaving only the Elementary Scholar family behind.

No matter where he went, he would be respected by everyone. Even the village elder had great expectations of him, but after he got sick, his days of absence had stopped him from enjoying the show, and after the marriage with Mian Niang was settled, he would not be able to leave his home, afraid that he would see someone else's strange gaze.

As a result, even though Second Uncle personally came to his house to call him over for dinner, he still refused.

There was no other way, May-Second Aunt could only bring over the food of three people, and at that time, Mian Niang was helping tofu hyacinth turn her body around.

Mian Niang had not yet recovered from the fever, her entire body was weak, although tofu hyacinth was not a heavy and cumbersome person, after her movements, she was tired to the point that she was sweating profusely, and even the wound on her ankle hurt more.

Seeing tofu hyacinth's heavy eyelids and not cooperating at all, May-Second Aunt's eyelids jumped, the words did not even come out of her mouth.

”Your family of three is unable to make it through. I can only bring it to your doorstep.”

On the wooden tray, there were two big bowls of soy horn stew and a basin full of sorghum rice. They were placed directly on the table inside the room, and together with Mian Niang, they placed the table in front of the bed.

”How is it, is Mian Niang better?”
