Chapter 90 Li Xiuxiu Gradually Recovers

Wang Zhenhua and the others were also cleaning the pig offal, and Wei Mo was helping to clean the wild boar's hooves, as these could play a significant role in Li Xiuxiu's recovery.

The old man and Grandma Yu were cleaning the wild boar's head on the side.

Qian Manman is going to smoke and braise a pig's head and offal later, so she's destined to have a sleepless night.

Even Wei Xiaomin and Wei Xiaohui got up to help boil water.

As time went by, it wasn't until midnight that everything was finally organized.

However, the offal still needs to be braised, which takes the most time.

Qian Manman looked at the somewhat tired family and slowly began to speak.

"Everyone, go and rest. Leave the rest to me. Tomorrow morning, I guarantee you'll all be able to enjoy delicious braised pork and offal."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Manman."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, my dear."

Seeing that the old man and Sister Wang looked a little embarrassed, Qian Manman waved her hand.

"It's alright, it's alright, I happen to enjoy doing these things too!"

The family was overjoyed; they now had three full jars of cured pork.

Now they'll have plenty of delicious food all winter long. Grandpa and Grandma Yu are getting old, so they dragged their sleepy bodies back to their old house to rest.

Meanwhile, Wei Ma and the others returned to their rooms to rest, leaving Qian Manman alone by the stove, constantly swallowing her saliva and occasionally poking herself with her chopsticks.

The next day, it was already past eight o'clock in the morning.

Wei Mo opened his eyes and saw that it was already bright outside, but the room was quiet and there was no sound.

Li Xiuxiu is now able to move a little. Wei Mo smiled as he watched Li Xiuxiu getting dressed and said to her,

"Aunt Xiuxiu, soon we'll be able to eat Aunt Manman's braised offal."

Li Xiuxiu nodded in agreement and smiled.

Why are you so greedy now?

Wei Mo gave an awkward laugh and glanced at Li Xiuxiu.

"I'll get up first, Aunt Xiuxiu. Wait for me here. I'll bring it to you when it's ready."

As Li Xiuxiu nodded, Wei Mo quickly dressed and walked out the door. On the stove were many braised offal pieces soaking in the braising liquid.

There were two ribs next to it, which looked like Qian Manman was planning to cook for lunch or dinner.

The others gradually woke up, and Wei Ma, Yu Juan, and Wang Ling also came out of the room.

Looking at the pot on the stove, there was a full basin of braised offal, and the aroma it emitted was indescribable, making my mouth water.

Wang Zhenhua smiled as he looked at the three children beside him who were drooling.

"Don't worry, I'll give you some to eat."

As he spoke, he picked up a cleaver and began to chop the braised offal and meat on the cutting board. After chopping them into pieces, Wei Mo took a bowl and filled it with rice.

This is the rice that Qian Manman prepared before going to bed. I have to say, it's really good to have a family with so much money.

Wei Mo took the dishes and rice back to the room for Li Xiuxiu to eat.

Then Wei Mo returned to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Today's breakfast was exceptionally lavish. Not long after, Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu also came over, and the whole family gathered around the table.

Looking at the fragrant braised offal, two people were missing from the table: Li Xiuxiu and Qian Manman.

Qian Manman cooked braised offal all night and is now sleeping on the kang (heated brick bed), while Li Xiuxiu has difficulty getting out of bed, so Wei Mo has prepared food for her.

Seeing that everyone had gathered, the old man addressed them,

"Then don't be shy, eat up and try our daughter's cooking."

The family ate with gusto, their mouths greasy and their mouths watering. It was the most delicious meal they had had since Wei Mo came.

After finishing his meal, Wei Mo started thinking about other ideas, figuring out how to buy some pork from the mall and then sell it, but he had to give the meat a proper explanation.

This way, my family will never lack pork. After all, pork tastes pretty good, especially in this day and age.

After Wei Mo returned to his room, he saw that Li Xiuxiu had finished eating. Wei Mo then spoke to Li Xiuxiu...

"Aunt Xiuxiu, are you full? Would you like me to get you some more?"

Li Xiuxiu quickly shook her head and said to Wei Mo,

"No, no, you little brat, look at me, I've gained weight recently."

Wei Mo looked at it carefully and found that it had gotten fatter, that is, the white steamed buns had become bigger, and then he said to Li Xiuxiu.

"You've gained weight, I think you're just fine! I think only your steamed buns have gotten bigger."

Hearing Wei Mo's thuggish words, Li Xiuxiu wanted to hit him, but couldn't reach him, so she said to Wei Mo.

"If you keep messing around, you can go sleep in another room."

Wei Mo quickly apologized to Li Xiuxiu, after all, this was his greatest benefit. Although he couldn't do anything about it, Wei Mo would definitely not want to give it up.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Xiuxiu, I was wrong."

"But Aunt Xiuxiu, you really haven't gained weight, really, Aunt Xiuxiu,"

Hearing Wei Mo's words, Li Xiuxiu was quite happy. After all, every girl loves beauty and no one likes to be too fat.

Seeing Wei Mo pick up the dishes and chopsticks for her, Li Xiuxiu couldn't help but sigh. Wei Mo had been taking care of her all this time, and she felt that she owed him more and more. She wondered if she could ever repay him in her lifetime.

Thinking of this, Li Xiuxiu couldn't help but feel shy. If all else failed, she would just give it to him...

Li Xiuxiu dared not think any further until Wei Mo returned, at which point she hurriedly banished the thought from her mind.

If we're talking about age, Li Xiuxiu is a full ten years older than Wei Mo. There's a saying that a woman three years older is like a gold brick, so this woman is more than ten years older and could be considered a gold brick. I wonder if others would agree with that?

Besides, Wei Mo is still young, how could he understand his own feelings?

Li Xiuxiu couldn't help but sigh.

Time flies, the weather is getting cooler, autumn has arrived, and the brigade is getting busy. However, some people want to sabotage things.

Although the autumn harvest was busy, it did not disturb the peace of Wei Mo's family. After all, whether or not to go to work was a choice, not a requirement, but the premise was that one could get leave.

The holidays for the weaving group are granted on an annual basis, so everyone doesn't need to go to the autumn harvest unless there's an unavoidable rush to harvest. Otherwise, they can stay home and weave things with peace of mind.

Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. Li Xiuxiu can now walk with difficulty, but she needs Wei Mo to support her.

When Li Xiuxiu took her first steps, she was very excited, which meant that Wei Mo had really cured her!

"Little brat, I can really walk now, I'm recovering."

Li Xiuxiu was so moved that tears streamed down her face. Grandma Yu, who was quite sentimental, was also wiping away her own tears while talking to herself.

"Okay, okay, that's great."

"Don't worry, Aunt Xiuxiu, as long as you listen to me, I guarantee you'll be able to run without any problems from now on."

Hearing Wei Mo's words, Li Xiuxiu nodded.

Wei Mo also constantly forced her to exercise her thighs, saying that it would help her bones recover.

Li Xiuxiu glanced at Wei Mo, who was supporting her, and smiled, a smile that was exceptionally sweet.
