Chapter 17 Is her illness a difficult and complicated one?
Ye Xiaomei uttered uncontrollably murmurs, it was so terrible, the only bit of clarity left in her mind forced her to stand up, but her face was buried in the man's neck, she bit it helplessly.
"Hmm!" Ma Qijun's body tensed and a suppressed moan came from his throat.
He was going crazy. This soft and boneless bite seemed to be teasing him. Electric currents were emitted where his teeth bit. If he continued like this, all his soldier's willpower would soon be shattered.
"Ye Xiaomei." Ma Qijun used his remaining consciousness to help her up with one hand, but he had to keep his hand on her waist. Seeing her dazed look, he was afraid that she would fall if he let go.
"Are you feeling unwell again?"
"Uh, I... I'm so hot." Ye Xiaomei twisted Ruan Ruowugu's body in pain, a gleam of crystal in her eyes.
"Sit down quickly." Ma Qijun pulled her to his chair, turned around quickly, picked up a book and placed it on the "tent", then quickly opened the teacup and drank a few gulps of bitter tea.
At this moment, he could not taste any bitterness. He just felt that his smoking throat had been relieved. Then he turned around and looked at Ye Xiaomei.
She sat paralyzed in the chair with her eyes as charming as silk, a look of pain and shame on her lips.
After a long time, Ye Xiaomei felt that her body had regained some strength. Then the feeling of embarrassment came over her. She almost lost control just now. At this moment, the air was still filled with the smell of sweat.
"Well, ah, I'm so hot, I'm so hot..."
"..." Ye Xiaomei felt a numbness on her back and she almost fell off the chair. She looked carefully and saw Xiaohong jumping up and down on the crossbar in the cage in the corner, imitating humming sounds with her mouth.
"Shut up!" Ye Xiaomei and Ma Qijun said in unison. Suddenly their eyes met, and Ye Xiaomei's cheeks turned red.
What should I do? I thought I bought a lucky charm that would make me rich, but now it seems I bought a bad luck.
"It's time to eat!" Wang Lan shouted in the yard.
At the dinner table, Ye Xiaomei lowered her head while Wang Lan brought a plate of chicken stewed with mushrooms to the table, and also fried a few vegetarian dishes:
"Xiao Mei, are you not feeling well?" Why is your face so red?
"She is a little malnourished." Ma Qijun continued.
"Well, you have to eat more. When you marry into my family, I will definitely feed you every meal."
Wang Lan was busy picking up food for Ye Xiaomei, but she just focused on eating without saying a word.
Thinking about what happened just now, Wang Lan couldn't help it. She was worried that Xiao Mei was angry after hearing those words:
"Xiao Mei, don't take what those people say seriously. This matter has a story behind it. Li Sixi's daughter-in-law worked in a textile factory. Within two months, she started dating a front-line manager in the factory. Later, she ran away from home for a week."
As Wang Lan spoke, she picked up a large chicken leg and stuffed it into Ye Xiaomei's bowl.
Ma Qijun standing by had a blank expression on his face, even a little impatient. He didn't understand why women were so fond of gossiping about these things.
Wang Lan continued, "Later, her son went to look for her, and at least he found her. Then the news of her pregnancy spread. Her daughter-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy last year, and the neighbors thought the boy didn't look like her son.
Maybe you have heard too much gossip and can't stand seeing others do better than you. So, Xiaomei, don't worry, I believe you. Don't listen to the gossip outside. Just live your life well. And in the future, if Qijun doesn't love you, I will teach him a lesson."
Ma Qijun finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his mother was sensible. But what did the last sentence mean? Ma Qijun felt as if his heart was being grabbed by a cat every time he looked at Ye Xiaomei. Looking at her weak and boneless appearance, who would be willing to bully her?
"Well, Auntie, don't worry. I don't like to worry about other people's affairs." Ye Xiaomei finally figured out that Auntie Wang said so much just because she was afraid that she would care about what happened just now.
"That's good, that's good." Wang Lan smiled happily: "Eat some chicken liver, it's good for replenishing blood."
Ye Xiaomei was almost full of food. She had never been so full before. Looking at the chicken liver in the bowl, Ye Xiaomei smiled and stuffed it into her mouth.
Seeing Auntie Wang take another bite, she quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks: "Auntie, I'm full."
"Are you full? Okay, I'll pour you some tea."
Wang Lan got up and reached for the teapot. At the same time, Wang Lan looked at her future mother-in-law's clean bowl, but she was only concerned with picking up food for herself and didn't eat a single bite.
At that moment, Ye Xiaomei felt something stuck in her throat, her nose felt sore and she almost wanted to cry. She had never been valued so much in her life.
"Mom, barley tea." Ma Qijun shouted at this moment.
"Need you to tell me? Barley tea is digestible." Wang Lan returned to the table with a cup of tea full of barley aroma and handed the quilt to Ye Xiaomei.
"Thank you, auntie." Ye Xiaomei took it with both hands and took a small sip.
"Be careful of the burns!"
Wang Lan and Wang Qijun, mother and son, said the same thing.
This made Ye Xiaomei feel extremely embarrassed. She felt that her choice to take care of Ma Qijun was the right one and it was worth it.
Ma Qijun and his mother looked at each other, and his mother's eyes showed affirmation. This boy finally learned to care about girls.
After dinner, Ye Xiaomei had no idea that "eating for free" existed in her dictionary since she was a child, so she had to do some work. Who would have thought that she would be pushed and dragged to the new house by Wang Lan?
In an instant, the air became still.
Ma Qijun looked at Ye Xiaomei, licked his lips and turned his face away pretending to drink tea. The bitter taste brought him back to reality and the fragrant and soft scent of Ye Xiaomei instantly appeared in his mind.
His eyes became gentle. No matter what, this woman was destined to be his.
"Brother Ma, I have to go back and take care of the rabbit." Ye Xiaomei fetched water and fed the rabbit, then packed up everything and wanted to escape from this near-crime scene.
"bird."
Ye Xiaomei was about to leave with the bamboo building on her back, but suddenly stopped.
"Um, uh, I'm hot, I'm hot."
Ye Xiaomei felt a tightness on her back: "Brother Ma, keep it for now. I don't have time to take care of it recently."
After saying that, Ye Xiaomei ran away. If she brought this dog home and it started talking nonsense, it would be really fatal.
When buying the rabbit, she knew that Mr. Xie had asked her for money, and he even said that the rabbit was already pregnant when he gave it to her, so he didn't charge her. Otherwise, Ye Xiaomei would not have spent ten dollars to buy this loser.
At the Ma family, Ma Qijun looked at his palm, where the soft fragrance of Ye Xiaomei still remained.
However, Ma Qijun calmed down and began to wonder, malnutrition? He had seen this girl getting up early and working in the fields, and she didn't look weak at all.
He thought she had heatstroke before, but that's clearly not the case. Today, it was almost noon and she was still smiling at the bird cage on the crowded street. If he hadn't gone to change the medicine, he would have worried that the girl had heatstroke.
But when we chased him to the village entrance, we found that the small body had been carrying the big bamboo building for several hours without any signs of heatstroke.
Could it be that he had some strange and difficult disease that he dared not tell anyone about?
This must be the case, otherwise why would a country girl read medical books? Obviously she wanted to treat herself.
"Heizi..." Ma Qijun shouted.
