Chapter 97: A Doctor's Kindness

-

After returning to the village from the county town, Jiang Wanying brought the news to Li Wei overnight.

Li Wei jumped up from the bed in shock. "You...what did you say? Brother Chuan, are you really willing to get engaged to me?"

Jiang Wanying quickly covered her mouth and shushed her, "Keep your voice down. You can't let your grandfather and the others know about this yet, or they'll definitely get suspicious. When my third aunt comes back to propose, remember to act surprised."

Li Wei blinked and nodded blankly. Jiang Wanying then released her hand and warned, "Also, to be on the safe side, don't mention your plan to go to school to Grandpa Li and the others for the next two days."

"I see."

Li Wei's heart was beating rapidly. She pinched her cheeks in disbelief. When she felt the pain, she realized this wasn't a dream. "How did you convince him to agree?"

"Isn't he afraid of being urged to get married? He's eager for such a good thing! I know what you feel. From now on, you can stay by his side and love him with a clear conscience. Be brave and win him over!"

"Okay!" Li Wei's pearly teeth gradually revealed, and her eyes suddenly brightened. Her expression was filled with shyness and eagerness. She excitedly reached out and hugged Jiang Wanying, her voice sweet and full of gratitude, "Yingying! Thank you for doing this for me!"

Jiang Wanying patted her back with a smile, "There's no need to thank me between you and me. Well, it's getting late, and I have to go home too. You should get some rest early."

The next morning, Jiang Wanying was having breakfast when guests came to her house.

Liu Liying came in carrying two bags of brown sugar and a few eggs. Xu Hongping quickly stood up and greeted her, "Sister Liying, what are you doing?"

"Didn't you say a few days ago that Yingying was having her period? I went to the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday and bought some brown sugar and eggs. You can make some brown sugar water for her to drink, and give her these eggs to nourish her body."

"Oh, you are too polite!" Xu Hongping smiled and pulled her into the main room to sit. After spending some time together, she already understood that Liu Liying treated her husband like an elder brother, and she had been worrying too much before.

Moreover, Liu Liying is a generous and upright person, and she feels that she has met her too late.

"Yingying! Look at all the good things your Aunt Liying brought you, and you haven't even thanked her yet."

Jiang Wanying was holding a steamed bun in her hand and was about to eat it. When she heard the voice, she turned around and quickly swallowed the pickled vegetables in her mouth. "Auntie - hey, you just came, why are you spending money?"

Liu Liying took her hand and sat down with a smile, "These are all for your health. Just tell me what you want to eat. You're welcome!"

Jiang Wanying's eyebrows moved slightly, and she smiled with pursed lips, "You are so kind! Brother Lu has such a good mother like you, it's really enviable!"

"That's great! If you don't mind, just marry into my family. I will definitely treat you like my own daughter!" Liu Liying smiled with her eyebrows bent. These days, the more she looked at Jiang Wanying, the more she liked her.

Apart from being a bit greedy, there is basically nothing bad to find elsewhere.

But what's wrong with being greedy? Being able to eat is a blessing. Liu Liying saw Jiang Wanying was so skinny and wished she could eat more and become plump so that she could get married and have children.

When Jiang Wanying heard this, the smile on her face froze. "Brother Lu is too outstanding. I don't have any skills. I'm afraid I'm not worthy of him."

Seeing her backing out, Liu Liying immediately said, "What else can he do besides being a soldier? He can't even find a wife. I think he's going to be single for the rest of his life!"
