Chapter 186 Apology

Qin Mahua waved her hands without hesitation. "Everyone's optimistic about the land over there, but I'm not so optimistic. It's obviously windier and more humid than our area. It's true that a lot of fish were caught there during the last typhoon, but it's also very risky. It's not very suitable for living in the season when the kang is not heated. After you and Xiaoxuan get married, bring Xiaofeng to live with us."

"We can talk about bringing Xiaofeng to live with us after we get married. Now let's talk about the land." Mu Chenze tried to persuade her, "Mom, when our village develops that area in the future, the value of the houses there will definitely increase."

"If you want your house to appreciate in value, you could consider buying a house in the city. Anyway, I don't agree with buying land near Xiaoxuan's house."

"People in the city can't even afford to buy houses, so there's no chance for us to get a share. Unless someone happens to want to sell a house in the city and we find out first, we can buy it."

"Don't you have a classmate in the city? You can ask him to help find out."

"But……"

"No buts! I absolutely won't agree to buying land near Xiaoxuan's home."

Qin Mahua's attitude was very firm, so Mu Chenze stopped discussing it.

Helplessly, I returned to the bedroom, took off my shoes, and lay on the kang to think.

His family does have an empty house, which would be big enough for Xiaofeng to live in after he and Xiaoxuan get married, but Xiaofeng refuses to come.

We must find a way to have the best of both worlds.

In fact, my mother's analysis was correct. It is indeed convenient for Xiaoxuan's family to go to the sea, but the humidity is indeed heavy. If you live there for a long time in the season when the kang is not heated, it will increase the humidity in the body.

Once the dampness is heavy, various diseases are likely to occur.

Unable to think of a solution for the time being, he simply took out a pen and paper and continued writing love letters to Xiaoxuan.

When Chu Xuan and her brother came to his house for dinner in the evening, he secretly slipped the love letter to Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan planned to look at it again when he got home, so he quickly put it in his pocket.

After dinner, Qin Mahua called Chu Xuan to her room to chat.

Chu Xuan could guess without asking that Aunt Qin did not agree with Mu Chenze buying land near her home.

Aunt Qin has always been kind and would not be estranged from her because of this matter. She probably hopes that she can persuade Mu Chenze.

As expected.

"Xiao Xuan, I asked you to come to my house to talk because I want you to help me persuade Xiao Ze. Can you persuade him to give up the idea of ​​buying land near your house?"

"Aunt, he just mentioned this to me today. I've thought about it. While it's certainly convenient for fishing there, it's not really suitable for living. I'll try to persuade him. After we get married, he and I will live here."

Qin Mahua looked contented. "It's definitely a blessing for Xiaoze to marry you. Xiaoxuan, don't worry. I will raise Xiaofeng as my son from now on. I've already prepared his room."

"Aunt, thank you! We'll talk about it later. Maybe my mom will live here permanently after she comes back, so we don't have to worry about Xiaofeng being lonely over there."

In fact, this is what Chu Xuan just thought of.

In her previous life, she had a bad relationship with her biological mother, and her biological mother did not live here permanently.

In this life, she and her biological mother want to repair their relationship, and her biological mother is very likely to stay for a while longer.

Light up the kang in advance to remove moisture. A warm house is more suitable for my mother to recuperate.

When the weather gets hot next year and the kang is no longer suitable for living, we will think of other solutions.

Chu Xuan and Qin Mahua chatted for a while, and then Chu Xuan said goodbye.

Mu Chenze sent Chu Xuan and her brother back home.

On the way back, Mu Chenze took the initiative to say, "Tomorrow I want to take Xiaofeng to see Doctor Zhang to take his pulse and prescribe some medicine."

Because he found that Xiaofeng had grown taller recently but his weight had not increased much, and he probably thought it was because there was moisture in his body.

I remember Doctor Zhang said that excessive dampness can cause obesity or weight loss.

If his mother hadn't mentioned that the humidity was even worse in Chu Xuan's area, he wouldn't have thought of this.

Chu Xuan has been taking Chinese medicine to regulate his body, and after moving in, he has not been affected much by the dampness, but Xiao Feng has never taken any treatment, so he will definitely be affected.

After being reminded by Mu Chenze, Chu Xuan suddenly felt that she was not doing her job as a sister well. "I'll take him there. I neglected it."

Having said that, he looked at Chu Feng with an apologetic look on his face, "Xiao Feng, I'm sorry! I was so busy taking care of myself that I didn't even take you with me."

Chu Feng didn't mind at all. "Sister, you've made sure I have enough to eat, enough clothes to wear, and a spacious and bright house. You've done me no wrong! I don't need to take any care of myself. I've been growing taller. It's just that I haven't gained any weight in over a month because I've eaten so many delicious foods..."

Mu Chenze advised, "After conditioning your body, the food you eat will not be wasted and can be absorbed by your stomach and intestines. If you don't condition your body, any good food you eat will be directly excreted..."

With just a few words, Chu Feng was completely convinced and said that he would definitely go see a Chinese doctor tomorrow.

After returning home, Chu Feng consciously went back to his room, leaving space for his brother-in-law and sister to talk in private.

Mu Chenze glanced at Chu Xuan's pocket and asked, "You haven't read the love letter I wrote to you yet, right?"

"Not yet. Thanks to you for reminding me today. Otherwise, if Xiaofeng develops any underlying illness in the future, I will regret it."

"Xiaofeng's condition isn't as serious as you think. Don't blame yourself. You've been so busy since the separation that you might have neglected Xiaofeng's condition. It's understandable. But I blame myself. As Xiaofeng's brother-in-law, I didn't think of taking him to see a Chinese medicine practitioner sooner. He's become increasingly thinner in the past month, and it feels like he'll collapse if the wind blows."

"Let's go with him tomorrow."

"good."

"By the way, give up the idea of ​​buying land from my house right now. This place is really not suitable for living in the season when there are no kangs. We can discuss it in detail after my mother comes back."

"Okay. Actually, I just realized this as well." Mu Chenze gently held Chu Xuan's hand, "Xiao Xuan, can you write me a reply?"

Last time I sent Xiao Xuan a love letter of more than twenty pages, but she was always busy and didn't reply a single word.

I have to ask for some benefits this time.

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "We see each other every day. If I have anything to say, can't I just tell you directly?"

Mu Chenze responded seriously, "Then I want to hear you say that you like me and you love me. Tell me now!"

Chu Xuan's face flushed red. "Let's write a reply! Go back first. I'll reply right away after I finish reading this letter."

"Okay. It's a deal. I'll come over tomorrow morning to ask for it. By the way, don't worry about asking for leave for Xiaofeng. I'll go to the village office and call the school duty room to ask for leave later."

Chu Xuan couldn't help but admire Mu Chenze's attentiveness, "Okay."

"Leave."

Mu Chenze gently squeezed Chu Xuan's palm before letting her go and turning away reluctantly.

Chu Xuan said softly, "Go slowly on the road and watch your step."

Mu Chenze walked out a few steps, looked at her again, and waved his hand, "I will. Quickly lock the door!"

He made sure Chu Xuan closed the door before leaving.

After making a phone call at the village office, he was on his way home and heard rustling sounds when passing by a small wood.

"Dashan, shall we go to your house?"

"My house is not convenient. Xiaozhi and Feng Shuai are staying at my house today."

"How about going to my house?"

"That won't do. You have an old hag at home. If she finds out, we'll both be in trouble."

“What if someone passes by?”

"Don't worry! There's no one!"

When Mu Chenze heard this, he had already realized that Chu Dashan and a woman were doing something unspeakable in the woods.
