When Ning Huan saw how frightened the four little ones were, her expression changed immediately. She had already tolerated Yao Shi for long enough, but seeing the little ones being tormented by Yao Shi like this, she couldn't bear it any longer.
She asked sternly, "What do you mean by 'carrying you on my back'? I called you just now, and you pretended not to hear me. You wouldn't come out no matter how much I called you. Did you expect me to go inside and drag you here?"
When Yao saw that Ning Huan dared to speak to her like that today, she glared at her and scolded, "You brat, how can you talk to your mother-in-law like that? I am your mother-in-law, it is only right that you call me that a few more times!"
She was already seething with anger from being bossed around by Ning Huan all day. If she couldn't vent her anger on Zhou Jing'an, could she at least not vent it on this little bitch Ning Huan?
Actually, Yao heard Ning Huan calling her earlier, but since she had just seen Ning Huan bathing the four little ones, she thought Ning Huan was calling her to do chores, so she pretended not to hear.
But I never expected that Ning Huan, that bitch, would invite her out to eat roasted fruit. She must have done it on purpose!
The four little ones were afraid that if their mother and grandmother started arguing, the house would become a mess again, so they quickly pulled Ning Huan aside and whispered, "Mother, don't argue with Grandma."
"Mother, we're alright, don't be angry with Grandma."
Looking at Yao Shi again, she didn't seem to be in the mood to argue with Ning Huan. She ate an orange, then a longan, and then put a red date in her mouth.
Ning Huan felt utterly helpless. No matter what, Yao Shi was still her mother-in-law, and as her daughter-in-law, she couldn't do anything to her.
But thinking about what she had just said to Aunt Xiufen on the mountain, she figured that Yao wouldn't be able to have a peaceful day after tonight, so she held back.
When it was time for dinner, she still ate in the kitchen with the four little ones. Even though it was just Zhou Jing'an and Yao Shi in the house, Yao Shi could talk for half a day.
Before going to bed, the four little ones looked at Ning Huan expectantly and asked, "Mommy, will we still not be able to sleep well tonight?"
"Mommy, Grandma's snoring is so loud, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"Mother, I want to sleep with you too."
Ning Huan thought about it and realized that the house in the backyard was actually about the same size as her own house. If they squeezed in a little, they could actually sleep together.
"Alright then, you four little ones, grab your blankets and come with me to the house in the backyard to sleep."
Upon hearing Ning Huan's agreement, the four little ones cheered and quickly grabbed their blankets, following Ning Huan to the backyard.
Because Ning Huan had lit a fire early on, the house was very warm.
Before going to sleep, the four little ones heard a long-awaited bedtime story again, and they were all very happy.
That night, only Zhou Jing'an was tormented by Yao's snoring. The next day, when Ning Huan brought the medicine she had prepared to Zhou Jing'an, she couldn't help but laugh when she saw the dark circles under his eyes.
Zhou Jing'an suppressed his anger: "What's so funny? It's just that I didn't sleep well."
Ning Huan readily agreed, "Yes, yes, it's just that I didn't sleep well."
Before the two had exchanged more than a few words, Yang's voice came from the doorway: "Sister, Ninghuan, Brother Jing'an, are you awake?"
Upon hearing Yang's voice, Ning Huan and Zhou Jing'an exchanged a glance, immediately understanding what was going on.
Ning Huan went out and replied, "Sister-in-law, we're all awake. Is there something urgent that you came so early?"
Yang was accompanied by Aunt Xiufen and Zhu Dali. Seeing these three people, Ning Huan became even more certain, but she still pretended not to know anything: "Aunt Xiufen? Brother Zhu? Why did you come with us? Did something happen?"
Yang looked somewhat embarrassed, Zhu Dali stammered for a long time without being able to say anything, and Aunt Xiufen didn't know how to bring it up either.
Finally, Yang paused and said embarrassedly, "Sister, it was last night, right? The village found those two people having an affair, and Aunt Xiufen caught them red-handed."
Ning Huan asked in confusion, "Huh? Really? Who are those two people?"
Zhu Dali scratched his head: "Uncle Zhou got together with Liu Feng from the neighboring village. Now both of them have been taken to the village chief, and nobody knows what to do."
"So the village chief and some elders want you and Jing'an to go there. But Jing'an is not feeling well, so you'll have to go by yourself."
According to normal custom, Zhou Dashan and Liu Feng should have been reported to the government and executed by drowning in a pig cage. However, Zhou Dashan was Zhou Jing'an's biological father, and the village chief thought that he should at least consider Zhou Jing'an's feelings and discuss it again.
Ning Huan paused for a moment, then said, "My husband can go too. Let's pack up and get ready to go."
Now, not only were the three Yangs puzzled, but even Zhou Jing'an was somewhat confused: "How can I go with you?"
Ning Huan smiled faintly: "Actually, I've been making something for you all this time, and I just happened to take it out and try it out today."
As she spoke, she went to the backyard and, when no one was paying attention, took out a wheelchair from her consciousness space. Recently, she had been trying to make one for Zhou Jing'an in her consciousness space at night when no one was around.
I originally thought I wouldn't need it for a while, but I didn't expect it to make its grand debut today.
Zhou Jing'an frowned when he saw the wheelchair. He had never seen such a strangely shaped chair before. It looked like a car and a chair at the same time, and it even had wheels underneath. Could it actually move?
Ning Huan smiled and said to him, "I'll lift you into this wheelchair and then push you around. That way you can get out."
Zhou Jing'an found it very novel: "This chair can move? I can sit in it and go outside?"
Ning Huan nodded: "You'll know once you sit down."
He was about to step forward and hug him when Zhou Jing'an frowned, somewhat reluctantly saying, "You don't need to hug me. I can sit on it myself."
How could a grown man like him let a woman hug him? If word got out, wouldn't he lose face?
But Ning Huan stopped him, saying, "Don't try it yourself. What if you hurt your leg again? It would be a loss. The important thing right now is to go to the village chief's place to see your father and Liu Feng. Stop being so dramatic."
As she spoke, Ning Huan picked up Zhou Jing'an and placed him in the wheelchair, causing Zhou Jing'an's face to turn red.
Because the original owner of this body was very strong, and Ning Huan used healthy exercise to lose weight, she was always very strong and able to carry Zhou Jing'an.
