Chapter 95 What happened to Aunt Wu?
Chen Xiaojuan was wearing an old blue flowered jacket and a small bun on her head, but the gold and silver jewellery she had worn before were gone.
Ever since that time when the foolish young master of the Wang family accompanied Nanny Li to send her back, he has never come to see her again.
Zhou Cuihua took away all the fine clothes and gold and silver jewelry she had gotten from the Wang family, saying that she could not wear them at home.
At this time, she was standing a few steps away from Baoya, with a sullen face, staring at Baoya hard.
"What are you doing?" Baoya held the futon in her arms and glared back at Chen Xiaojuan.
This is right at her doorstep, she is not afraid of Chen Xiaojuan!
Chen Xiaojuan clenched her fists. Her family's woodshed burned down, and her mother scolded her for being an unlucky star and gave her a beating.
But she just felt that it must be Baoya, the troublemaker, who made their family so unlucky!
"Hmph!" She snorted. "Just wait! If my dad hunts a wild boar, our family will be rich too! We'll definitely live better than yours!"
"What does that have to do with me?" Baoya pouted, not wanting to talk to her any more, so she turned around and left with the cushion in her arms.
"Stop!" Chen Xiaojuan yelled at the back, "Baoya, I'm not the unlucky one! You are! Just wait and see! I'm the benefactor of the young master of the Wang family, and I'm more fortunate than you!"
Baoya ran home without stopping. Yunhua came out to greet her and saw this scene.
Yunhua picked up Baoya and glared at Chen Xiaojuan: "Go back to your home! Our Baoya is not a jinx!"
"At such a young age, you already know how to compare yourself to others and say such things!"
Yunhua's cry startled Chen Xiaojuan, who pursed her lips and dared not say a word.
She gritted her teeth, glared at Yunhua, and carried Baoya into the house, feeling angry.
My family has been so unlucky lately, it must be Baoya’s bad luck!
When Dad comes back from hunting a wild boar, her family will be able to eat meat, and she can also benefit from it and drink some meat soup to satisfy her craving.
Maybe with the money from selling the wild boar, I could open a shop in town like the Yun family...
Chen Xiaojuan clutched the cuffs of her clothes with her dirty little hands. She still had the Wang family as her backing. What did Baoya have? She definitely couldn't compare to her!
"Look, look, look! What's there to see? Come back and feed the chickens and ducks!"
Zhou Cuihua's roaring voice like a Hedong lion came from behind. Chen Xiaojuan shuddered, shrank her neck, turned around and ran away swiftly.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky until after noon, when a cloud suddenly floated in from nowhere and the sky became overcast in the blink of an eye.
After the Yun family finished their lunch, Zhao Zhilan told her three sons to drive the donkey and cow into the barn in the yard and collect the dried sweet potatoes drying in the yard. At this rate, it might rain soon.
As a result, just as Yun Erlang put the dried sweet potatoes into the house, the sky suddenly turned dark, with dark clouds covering the sky. It was very gloomy and it was as dark as night.
Zhao Zhilan asked the children to go into the house to practice calligraphy and not run around in the yard. She and her three daughters-in-law also gathered together to cut cloth to make winter clothes for the children.
The heavy rain came suddenly, like a bucket of water pouring down.
Baoya, Yun Chenglu, Yunhua and Yunyue brought small stools and sat in the main room to write. When it started to rain, the four children could no longer write.
Small stools were placed in a row. I sat at the door and watched the big raindrops hitting the ground.
The rain flowed down from the eaves like a small waterfall.
"Baoya, you're so accurate, it's really raining." Yunyue sat next to Baoya and stretched out her little hands to catch the rain.
As a result, when he stretched out his hand, his delicate little palm was hit and hurt, so he quickly pulled it back.
She stuck out her tongue at Baoya, curious about Baoya's apprenticeship.
"Baoya, what did your master teach you?"
Because those villagers insisted on going up the mountain, Liu Lizheng was invited, and it was no longer a secret that Baoya became a disciple of the hermit master.
Naturally, the other people in the Yun family also knew about it, but since there were so many miraculous things that happened to Baoya, it was not so difficult for everyone to accept it.
He Chunxiu and Yun Sanlang were even more surprised, and immediately decided not to take Baoya to the town shop to help out in the future. After all, learning from experts is more important!
The secret of Yun Chenglu's sudden love of learning was also revealed. Wang Cailian and Yun Dalang were overjoyed and became the main force in supervising Yun Chenglu's calligraphy practice.
With Baoya and Yun Chenglu to compare with, the second wife's family naturally urged the two girls, Yunhua and Yunyue. Although they did not become disciples, they also had to learn and improve. The children of the first and second wives were so good, they could not be outdone.
Baoya thought for a moment when faced with Yunyue's question: "Well, actually, he just taught me how to cook, and then... running laps, chopping bamboo, splitting wood, and squatting."
As she recalled the "hard" days she, Xiao Jing, and her second brother spent practicing in Peach Blossom Spring, her brows furrowed. "Why do I feel like he's just looking for someone to do hard labor?"
Yunyue was originally jealous when she heard that Baoya and her second brother both knew experts, but after hearing this, she immediately lost interest.
She reached out and patted the back of Baoya's hand, and said seriously, "Hey, learning anything is not easy. You have to work hard and don't give up halfway."
"Yeah!" Xiao Baoya nodded and responded seriously.
Although learning martial arts is a bit tiring, she really enjoys learning to cook and will never give up!
Several children were sitting in the main room, talking and watching the heavy rain. Zhao Zhilan and her three daughters-in-law were making clothes in the east room, while the three men of the Yun family were talking and chatting in the west room.
The rain was getting louder and heavier, with thunder striking from time to time, but everyone felt at ease staying at home.
However, the silence did not last long as it was interrupted by a thrilling knock at the back door.
Yun Chenglu quickly stood up and opened the door.
As soon as the back door was opened, the heavy rain outside gradually came in and wet his clothes.
Baoya and the others couldn't sit still anymore, so they stood up and ran over in small steps.
"Second brother, who is it?"
Because she was afraid that she would get wet by the raindrops, Yunhua kept her and Yunyue behind her.
"It's Aunt Wu."
Yun Chenglu replied while talking to the woman standing outside, who was soaked all over: "Auntie, please come in first. If you have anything to say, come in and tell me."
Wu Dongmei was wrapped in an oilcloth and holding an umbrella, but the rain was too heavy and she was still soaked all over, looking very embarrassed.
Yun Chenglu let her into the house, asked her to sit down and rest, and then he went to the east room to call the adults.
Baoya was very sensible and went to get her a handkerchief, while Yunhua and Yunyue went to pour her a bowl of hot water.
Wu Dongmei's face was pale and her lips were trembling. She took a few steps, but before she could sit on the stool, her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
"Aunt Wu, what's wrong with you?!" Baoya came back with a handkerchief and was shocked when she saw this scene.
"Auntie, it's okay, it's okay..."
Wu Dongmei's lips trembled, her eyes turned red, and tears flowed down like beads from a broken string.
She sobbed with a trembling voice, "Baoya, you must save your Uncle Yang!"
