Chapter 189 Unrestricted Support, Anomaly Detected
By the end of the meal, the group had finished off the entire table of food.
Of course, it was mainly Wen Yingjie who ate the most.
After finishing his meal, Wen Yingjie slumped in his chair, completely unconcerned about his image, and didn't want to move at all.
"I'm so full, I don't want to move." Wen Yingjie burped, not wanting to move a single finger.
Xia Yuhuan was somewhat helpless upon seeing this.
Considering Wen Yingjie was a guest, she had prepared two extra dishes today, but to her surprise, they were all eaten up.
Even though she knew that men eat a lot and have strong fighting power, this fighting power still shocked her.
"I'll go make some digestive soup so I don't get indigestion and feel unwell later," Xia Yuhuan said, getting up and going to the kitchen.
Aunt Wang came to collect the bowls and chopsticks.
Wen Yingjie looked at Chi Yanzhou with envy: "You really got a good wife. How come she can do everything? If this gets back to those rascals in the army, how envious they'll be?"
Chi Yanzhou was proud and self-satisfied, and he made no attempt to hide it from his friends.
"It's no use if you're envious, my wife, she's mine."
As he spoke, he pointed towards the kitchen and then at himself, looking extremely proud.
Wen Yingjie rolled her eyes at him.
"I know it's yours, so stop showing off. Your smugness is making me want to punch someone."
Chi Yanzhou: "Wait until I'm better, then it'll be you?"
He looked disgusted.
Wen Yingjie laughed in anger: "Who do you think you are? If we really fight, we're evenly matched."
"Don't forget, with your current immobility, dealing with you would be a piece of cake for me."
Chi Yanzhou: "..."
Very good, keep him in check. Once he recovers, this kid will be the first one we deal with.
With the idea that a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle, Chi Yanzhou snorted and ignored Wen Yingjie.
Wen Yingjie smiled slyly, but he knew when to stop and didn't provoke Chi Yanzhou any further.
The two were chatting idly when they heard someone coming to find Xia Yuhuan.
"What's wrong?" Xia Yuhuan asked as she came out of the kitchen after hearing the commotion.
"Hello, Comrade Xia, I'm Aunt Zhuang's daughter, my name is Zhang Xiaohua." The visitor introduced herself first.
Then, looking embarrassed, he said, "I'm sorry, Comrade Xia, I might have to trouble you to brew the medicine for my old lady again."
"When I was heating the medicine at noon, I accidentally spilled it. The old lady has no medicine to drink, so I had no choice but to come to you for help. I'm really sorry to have troubled you."
Xia Yuhuan saw Zhang Xiaohua at the Zhuang family yesterday, but she didn't know her name.
Upon hearing this, she said, "It's alright. I'll prepare the medicine for Grandma Wang now. It will probably take about an hour. You can come back to pick it up in an hour."
Both families live in the same compound. It only takes a few minutes to get from the Chi family's house to Grandma Wang's house, so there's no need for Zhang Xiaohua to waste time waiting here.
"Oh, okay, thank you so much, thank you so much, you've gone to so much trouble," Zhang Xiaohua said repeatedly.
Xia Yuhuan went back into the kitchen to brew the medicine.
This morning, she brought down several days' worth of medicinal herbs, so she can take them directly when decocting the medicine.
The medicinal herbs are all the same; the main difference is the spiritual spring water.
Only she has this stuff, so naturally only she can brew the medicine to its full effect.
Wen Yingjie whispered to Chi Yanzhou, "The Zhuang family? Is it that Zhuang family? Who in their family is sick? Who is your wife preparing medicine for?"
"Yes, it's that family in the compound. My wife is helping Grandma Wang with her health." Chi Yanzhou didn't hide anything and said.
Wen Yingjie was shocked: "Grandma Wang's condition has been treated by so many top doctors, and they were all helpless. Your wife dared to take on the case? That's amazing."
Chi Yanzhou was actually unsure about Xia Yuhuan's treatment of Wang Aiping.
But that doesn't stop him from blindly praising Xia Yuhuan.
"My wife is definitely amazing."
Wen Yingjie wanted to roll his eyes again.
He felt like he was reliving all the eye-rolls he'd ever received in his life.
He hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "Is your wife confident? Grandma Wang is no joke; if this treatment causes problems, it could lead to serious issues."
Chi Yanzhou was silent for a moment, then calmly said, "I trust my wife; she wouldn't do something she wasn't sure of."
Wen Yingjie: "..."
Okay, okay, you have a wife, you're amazing, alright?
He didn't want to say a single word to Chi Yanzhou.
If he weren't waiting for Xia Yuhuan's digestive soup, he would have liked to just get up and leave.
Xia Yuhuan quickly cooked a digestive soup and brought a bowl to Wen Yingjie and Chi Yanzhou.
"Try it, but be careful, it's hot."
"Thank you, sister-in-law," Wen Yingjie quickly said.
Despite his lack of manners and decorum in front of Chi Yanzhou, he is quite well-behaved in front of Xia Yuhuan.
After drinking the digestive soup, Wen Yingjie stayed for a while before getting up and leaving.
Not long after he left, the agreed hour passed, and Zhang Xiaohua came to pick up the medicine.
Xia Yuhuan was somewhat surprised to see Zhang Xiaohua arrive empty-handed.
"Why didn't you bring a clay pot? Did you break the clay pot for stewing medicine?" Xia Yuhuan asked.
Zhang Xiaohua was even more surprised: "A clay pot? What clay pot?"
"It's the same casserole dish that Uncle Zhuang brought back this morning, just like this one," Xia Yuhuan said, as she went to the kitchen to fetch the medicine for Zhang Xiaohua.
Zhang Xiaohua took the casserole.
She was quite certain she didn't see the farmer at home.
Zhuang Weiming brought back a thermos when he picked up his medicine in the morning.
Having lived in the Zhuang family for many years and knowing Zhuang Weiming well, she immediately understood.
Zhang Xiaohua laughed and said, "Look at me, I'm getting old and forgetful, I forgot."
"I'll bring it to you together after the old lady finishes her medicine."
"Oh, it's okay, no rush. I have some at home. I can bring it over when I pick up the medicine tomorrow morning," Xia Yuhuan said.
"Okay, thank you for going through all that trouble again." Zhang Xiaohua smiled at Xia Yuhuan, thanked her, and then left with the medicine.
When she returned to the farmhouse, she saw Wang Aiping sitting in a wheelchair, sunbathing by the window.
"You're back? Did you apologize to Xia?" Wang Aiping asked.
"I apologized and thanked her. Comrade Xia was very easy to talk to and didn't mind at all. She helped me without saying a word." Zhang Xiaohua said as she got a bowl, put the medicine in it, and brought it to Wang Aiping to drink.
Wang Aiping tested the temperature and found it to be just right, so she decided to drink the medicine all at once.
"Hmm?" As soon as the medicine entered her mouth, Wang Aiping sensed something was wrong.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the medicine?" Zhang Xiaohua asked hurriedly.
Wang Aiping frowned and asked her, "Are you sure this medicine came from Xia's house?"
"Yes, ma'am, I saw Comrade Xia bring it out of the kitchen with my own eyes."
"By the way, Comrade Xia also asked me why I didn't bring the casserole that the gentleman brought back this morning."
Wang Aiping: "Wei Ming didn't bring the casserole back this morning, did he?"
Zhang Xiaohua nodded slightly.
There were some things she couldn't say outright, after all, they were just speculations about the master's family.
But to be honest, it is possible.
Wang Aiping immediately understood what it meant.
She gave a cold laugh in anger.
