Seeing Ning Huan's bewildered expression, Zhou Jing'an coldly said, "Have you finished acting?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Huan's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that he discovered my secret of transmigrating into a book?
Before she could speak, Zhou Jing'an continued, "What did you do at the Yang family next door today?"
So that's what you were asking.
Ning Huan breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little confused: "Why are you asking this? What did I act in?"
Zhou Jing'an snorted coldly. This woman was still able to keep pretending even now.
Every time she went to the Yang family next door, she would argue and cause trouble with the neighbors. Several times, she even forced them to come to her door, and then she would run away, leaving her and her children to help her out.
Thinking back to how Ning Huan had told him not long ago to take good care of herself and the four little ones, Zhou Jing'an felt like he had been blinded by greed; he had actually believed that Ning Huan would change.
It seems that her troublemaking and shrewish nature has never changed. How can such a woman raise four little ones well?
Just as he was about to scold Ning Huan for pretending to be confused, a voice came from outside the door: "Are your parents home?"
The four little ones were playing in the yard when they saw Grandma Yang standing at the door, followed by her uncle and aunt.
Da Bao got up and opened the door. Grandma Yang said with a smile, "Da Bao, we need to talk to your parents."
Little Erbao stepped forward, pointed to the house, and said, "My daddy is resting in the house."
The four little ones then led them into the house.
But they all felt a little ashamed, thinking that the bad woman must have caused trouble next door, and now Grandma Yang and the others had come to complain to their father.
Zhou Jing'an and Ning Huan heard the noise from inside the house. He angrily said to Ning Huan, "Look what you've done!"
Ning Huan was even more confused: "What did I do?"
As they were talking, the Yang family members entered the house. Upon seeing Zhou Jing'an, Yang Yong stepped forward and asked with concern, "Brother Jing'an, how is your injury?"
Zhou Jing'an nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Yang. I've been resting at home recently, and I feel my body is recovering."
Yang Yong replied, "That's good. Then you should rest well. If you need any help, just let me know."
"Thank you very much, Brother Yang."
Yang Yong exchanged a few more polite words, and Zhou Jing'an said calmly, "Brother Yang, what brings you here today?"
He had never had any dealings with the Yang family at the academy, so the Yang family's visit today must have been more than just a simple visit to check on his health.
Upon hearing Zhou Jing'an's words, Yang Yong clicked his tongue, and then Yang's mother-in-law stepped forward and bowed to Zhou Jing'an.
Grandma Yang said gratefully, "Jing'an, we owe you so much to your daughter-in-law today!"
Zhou Jing'an was stunned. He thought the Yang family had come to demand an explanation, but it turned out they were just there to thank Ning Huan.
What did this woman do?
Just as he was puzzled, Ning Huan stepped forward and said, "Grandma, you're too kind. I already said it was my duty. You even came to thank me in person tonight, which makes me feel really bad."
Grandma Yang said with a smile, "Jing'an's daughter-in-law, after you left this afternoon, we brewed the herbs you gave Xiaoshu and he drank them. He actually said he felt stronger. We really have to thank you!"
Yang Shi, who had been following behind Yang Yong, hesitated and said to Ning Huan, "Sister, it's all my fault for stopping you from coming to treat our Xiaoshu today."
After saying that, Yang wanted to apologize to Ning Huan.
Ning Huan quickly said, "Sister-in-law, you're too kind. It was just a small favor, no need to take it to heart."
Zhou Jing'an heard their conversation and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
It turns out that Ning Huan went to treat the Yang family's child in the afternoon, so I misunderstood her again.
The Yang couple thanked them repeatedly before leaving.
After seeing the Yang family off, Ning Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Jing'an looked at her and suddenly asked, "Is that Yang family child really alright?"
Ning Huan nodded and replied with a smile, "Yes, it's nothing."
As she spoke, she recalled the question Zhou Jing'an had asked her earlier. What exactly was it?
So she tentatively asked, "What did you mean by what you just said?"
Zhou Jing'an originally wanted to keep quiet and let the matter pass, but he didn't expect that the woman would bring it up again.
He coughed and then said, "It's nothing. What I was doing just now was..."
Zhou Jing'an paused for a moment, then said, "I thought you went to the Yang family to cause trouble today, and got into trouble like before. I... I misunderstood you."
When Ning Huan first heard that the villain was doubting her again, she couldn't help but roll her eyes. Then, he actually apologized to her.
Ever since she transmigrated to this world, Zhou Jing'an has always acted arrogantly.
He didn't even give her a kind look, let alone apologize. Ning Huan was surprised, but quickly recovered: "Yeah, it's okay. I know I didn't do well before, which is why you've been misunderstanding me."
The four little ones outside the house initially thought they would be embarrassed, but when they heard that Ning Huan had saved Yang Xiaoshu from next door, and that Yang's grandmother, uncle, and aunt had come to their house to express their gratitude, they felt very happy.
After Ning Huan and Zhou Jing'an made up, she originally wanted to go to the kitchen to brew some nourishing medicine for Zhou Jing'an.
Remembering that Zhou Jing'an had vomited blood after drinking tonic last time, she only gave him some spiritual spring water.
She had just brought it in when she was about to tell Zhou Jing'an about going to town to get him a doctor. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a loud bang coming from the room with the four little dumplings.
Then came the shouts of the little ones.
Ning Huan was startled and quickly ran over. When she opened the door, she found that the only bed in the room was a large bed made of various wooden planks.
Now, half of the bed board has collapsed into the ground, pressing down on the legs of the two little ones.
She quickly moved the bed board aside. Then she picked up her two younger children from the floor: "Are you two alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Then she carefully examined the two little ones and found that the second child was not injured, but the third child's leg was seriously injured and a piece of skin was knocked off his arm, and he was crying in pain.
With a tearful voice, the little boy asked, "It hurts so much! Am I going to die?"
Ning Huan shook her head and said, "Don't cry. You only hurt your leg and arm a little. It's okay. I'll put some medicine on you in a bit, and the pain will go away soon."
Seeing that the younger one was crying so hard, the second child also shed some tears.
The four little ones and the eldest one, who were not injured, secretly shed tears because they felt sorry for the injured third one.
I watched as the four little ones cried their eyes out.
Ning Huan sighed inwardly and hugged the four little ones into her arms.
She gently stroked the backs of her two little ones, Erbao and Xiaosanbao, and softly comforted them, "Don't cry, it'll be alright."
Hearing Ning Huan's comforting words, the four little ones gradually stopped crying.
