Chapter 4 The more I read, the more I hate it (1/2)



It was the first month of the year, and the Shen family was still immersed in the joy of the New Year, when suddenly a crazy wandering Taoist priest came to their house to beg for alms.

Shen Chang took a roast chicken and gave it to him.

At that time, the crazy Taoist touched his forehead and said something incomprehensible.

"If you have good intentions, someone will help you get through this difficult time."

By the time she reacted, the crazy Taoist priest had already left with a big laugh.

Now that I think about it, the Taoist priest must have been referring to today.

Thinking of this, she once again cast a grateful look towards Old Mrs. Huang.

"Don't just stand there, help the old man up quickly and ask the doctor to come over and take a look."

Naturally, no one dared to disobey Mrs. Shen’s words.

The doctor came to check and confirmed that both Old Lady Huang and Shen Chang were fine.

"The old lady is old, and this fall might leave her with a chronic illness. She should be more careful."

These words made Mrs. Shen's eyes red again.

Old Mrs. Huang comforted her, "Madam, it is my honor to save the young master."

Immediately, Mrs. Shen asked someone to get a silver note worth one tael and insisted on giving it to Old Lady Huang.

Old Mrs. Huang did not accept it. Although she was a country woman, she had lived two lives after all.

Knowing that asking them for a favor is far more beneficial than taking a small reward.

Seeing that she refused to accept it, Mrs. Shen felt even more grateful. She had originally thought that it was too little, but Mrs. Huang's words seemed genuine and did not sound false.

"In that case, I won't say much. I'll bring Chang'er to visit you some other day."

Old Mrs. Huang refused again and again, saying that it would be enough if she could visit the young master in the future.

As soon as these words were spoken, Mrs. Shen immediately understood and agreed, saying that the two families would become relatives in the future.

Old Mrs. Huang bought some medicine and two strings of candied haws, then hurried back home.

The family started to boil the medicine without stopping.

Tao Chunhua was so angry that her cheeks puffed up again, "I really gave this money-losing guy medicine. With this money, I might as well buy some meat for my son and me to enjoy."

Old Lady Huang poured a bucket of water over his head, "You and your mother are the most greedy in the family. You look like the reincarnation of starving ghosts!"

Tao Chunhua was soaked all over, especially her hair, which was dripping with water.

She looked at Old Lady Huang in disbelief, "Mom, you actually splashed water on me?"

Old Mrs. Huang glared, "Don't you know that I'm a shrew?"

Tao Chunhua could hardly believe her ears. Why did her mother-in-law suddenly become like a different person today?

In the past, her mother-in-law was very obedient to her and only targeted the eldest son's family.

Now……

How did it change?

Old Mrs. Huang followed the doctor's instructions and boiled the medicine and brought it back to the room.

Huang Jingjing has woken up and is talking to Chen Jingui, whose eyes are red.

Old Mrs. Huang said distressedly, "My dear, go lie down for a while. I will feed my good granddaughter the medicine."

"Milk." Huang Jingjing was a little flattered. She quickly struggled to get up, took the bowl and started drinking.

Old Mrs. Huang quickly took out the candied haws hidden in the basket and said, "My dear, have some."

"Tanghulu?" Huang Jingjing's eyes lit up immediately, but she quickly said, "Grandma, I don't want to eat it. I'll leave it for my brother."

The younger brother she was referring to was Tao Chunhua's son Huang Xiaoman.

When Mrs. Huang heard this, her face suddenly darkened. "If I don't give him food, how can he compare to my sweet baby?"
