Chapter 147 Do You Really Like It?
Mr. Lu then raised his head and asked suspiciously, "Did you misunderstand something? I just said that I didn't do anything!"
"I know, I know, don't worry, Mr. Lu, I won't say anything nonsense."
Facing such a stubborn person, Lu Lao was speechless: "I really didn't do anything. Look at my arm. Can I still hold a needle?"
Old Master Lu knew that if she said too much, the other person would not believe her, so she simply raised her hand. In the past, she always used her right hand when giving acupuncture, but this time, this hand was just raised lightly, and it began to tremble violently.
Looking at this situation, it seems impossible to even hold a silver needle steadily, let alone insert the needle.
"Mr. Lu, what about your hand?"
Su Yaxian suddenly felt very upset. This was...
"I was beaten. The injury was too severe, and I didn't treat it in time. It's now like this. I've used silver needles on my hand all my life, but who would have thought that in the end I couldn't even save my own hand!"
Old Lu looked gloomy. She had never expected that in the end, her hand would be destroyed by the hands of the student she trusted most.
"I'm sorry!" Su Yaxian said apologetically.
"It wasn't me who healed Ning Zhiyuan's injury. It was Liangliang girl who healed him!"
Old Lady Lu sighed. She also knew that Ning Zhiyuan's identity was not simple. Looking at the person in front of her, could he accept Xia Liang?
"His condition was quite serious at the time, and Xia Liang learned it from me. In order to help her with acupuncture, Xia Liang experimented on herself. I felt so sad when I saw the needle marks on her body."
Su Yaxian's eyes widened in shock. She didn't expect that the person who saved her son was Xia Liang?
Did his son decide to marry Xia Liang just to repay his gratitude?
But there are many ways to repay a favor, and my son doesn’t need to do it this way.
"I have no other intention in telling you this. Xia Liang's girl is really good. She had a very hard life in the first half of her life."
Mr. Lu sighed, lowered his head, and continued to collect the wheat.
Su Yaxian's mood was extremely complicated. She didn't expect that the person who helped her son recover so quickly was Xia Liang?
But wasn't Xia Liang an educated youth? She probably didn't go to college, did she? Who did she learn medicine from?
She also wanted to use other methods to make Xia Liang give up Ning Zhiyuan. Now that she knew that Xia Liang was her son's savior, Su Yaxian suddenly felt a little reluctant.
"What happened to Xia Liang's background?"
Even if Xia Liang really saved Ning Zhiyuan, she shouldn't have cut off ties with her family when she got married.
"Liangliang's family didn't treat her well at all. They abused her when she was little, beating and scolding her. There was an educated youth in this village named Xia Jing. You should have met her, right?"
After Su Yaxian came to Yangliu Village, she also heard some things and naturally knew about Xia Jing's affairs.
"Xia Liang used to be very nice to Xia Jing, but Xia Jing was a bad person and she did all kinds of things to trick Xia Liang. Fortunately, Liang Liang repented in time and got rid of that blood-sucking sister as soon as possible."
"Her mother was even more outrageous. She knew Xia Liang was married and still wanted 200 yuan as a betrothal gift. When Xia Liang disagreed, she secretly beat her up and sold her. Fortunately, Xiaoyuan came to find her in time, otherwise..."
Su Yaxian didn't know how she got back, she thought Mr. Lu must be lying.
She met a woman on the road and stopped her to ask her questions. Unexpectedly, the woman said something even more outrageous than what the Xia family said.
I never thought Xia Liang’s family would be like this. If it were me, what would I do?
This was the first time Su Yaxian encountered such a thing. She suddenly felt that she was a little extreme. Maybe Xia Liang was not as bad as she thought.
However, she still has requirements for her daughter-in-law.
In the evening, Yang Xiaohong and Wang Bin indeed got a lot of small shrimps. These shrimps were not big, about the size of a thumb.
"Liangliang, whatever you say, I'll listen to you."
In the past, they also ate shrimps. Add some oil and chopped green onions to bring out the aroma, then put the washed shrimps in and stir-fry them until they are a little crispy. The taste is really good.
Xia Liang hasn't eaten shrimps for a long time, especially this kind of pure natural and pollution-free ones.
"Let me do it!"
Yang Xiaohong naturally raised her hands in approval, and Auntie Li did not argue: "Okay, I'll try your cooking skills tonight!"
“I need some leeks!”
Xia Liang was not polite and spoke directly.
Yang Xiaohong ran out. This girl went out to cut leeks.
Fried river shrimp with chives, this is Xia Liang's favorite flavor. First, fry the shrimp until crispy. If there is extra, deep-frying is even better. However, there is not much food at this time, so Xia Liang chose to add more oil to fry, otherwise Aunt Li would be distressed.
After frying the shrimps, add chopped green onions in hot oil to bring out the flavor. Then put the shrimps on top, add a little soy sauce, stir-fry for a few times, then add the chopped leeks, turn the heat to the highest, stir-fry quickly, and when the leeks are cooked, the dish is ready.
The strong aroma made Yang Xiaohong want to reach out and take one to taste.
Auntie Li patted her paw and said, "You are so old, and you still eat secretly! Let's go eat together later!"
Yang Xiaohong swallowed and muttered, "It smells really good. Mom, I think my sister's cooking tastes better than yours."
Hearing this, Auntie Li picked up the kitchen broom and said, "You silly girl, are you itchy again?"
Xia Liang giggled. She finally realized that Yang Xiaohong just liked to be beaten.
Xia Liang ate a little more at dinner, and you know what, it was really flavorful.
Tonight, Su Yaxian went to the new house with Xia Liang and the others. There were already two bedrooms in the yard, and it only needed a simple clean-up before people could live in it.
Seeing the simple courtyard, Su Yaxian frowned but didn't say much.
When she saw Xia Liang, her expression was a little complicated.
Suddenly she didn't know how to face Xia Liang. She used to think that this person was not good, had bad character, was not filial, and even deceived her son.
She could look at Xia Liang with a cold brow and a look of scrutiny.
But according to the information I got today, this person saved my son's life, and there was another hidden reason for severing ties with the family. If she was not the daughter-in-law of her son, Su Yaxian would still admire Xia Liang very much.
It is not something that most people can do for a child of eighteen or nineteen to cut off ties with his family so decisively.
But if you ask whether she likes him, the answer is no. The main reason is that she already has a better daughter-in-law in mind.
That was Meng Xiaoxiao. Compared to the stranger Xia Liang, she definitely liked the girl she had watched grow up since she was a child more.
And more importantly, Meng Xiaoxiao really likes Ning Zhiyuan.
And from what I've observed during this period, Xia Liang doesn't seem to have much affection for her son.
The relationship between the two might have been initiated by her son.
That night, Su Yaxian couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and kept thinking about her son's marriage.
She decided to have a frank talk with her son.
"Son, do you really like Xia Liang?"
