Chapter 65: Showing Attention for No Reason
"Is there anything else?" Cen Yan didn't know what Cen Shuang was planning by staying here, so he just frowned and looked at her and asked.
"Sister, I just want to help you because I see you're working hard. Do you still need to boil medicine for Second Uncle later? How about I go and bring you food? I've served a lot of meat. I'll make a bowl for you. You can eat the meat here while boiling the medicine. How about that?" Cen Shuang suggested.
In order to help Wei Zan, she spent a lot of money.
He even gave the meat in his own bowl to Cen Yan.
"No need. I'll go eat first and then make medicine for my father later." However, Cen Yan was not interested at all. He picked up the prepared chicken soup and walked towards the second room.
Cen Shuang stayed where she was, stamping her feet in anger.
She had no choice but to go back to the house and wait for dinner to find an opportunity to take action.
By the time of dinner, Cen Yan discovered that Cen Shuang seemed to be circling around her all day, especially when she was cooking.
This really made Cen Yan alert.
In the evening, Old Man Cen, Cen Dajiang and Cen Dahe came back from working in the fields as usual. After cleaning up, they started serving the meal.
Cen Shuang was very active in helping to serve the rice today.
This made Old Mrs. Cen constantly praise her for becoming more sensible and hardworking.
Cen Yan, on the other hand, never refrained from work for a single day, but not only did he never receive a single word of praise, he was always scolded.
Cen Yan was not at all moved by this.
There is really no need to make yourself unhappy for someone who doesn't care about you at all.
"Sister, please sit down and eat." At this time, Cen Shuang handed Cen Yan a piece of steamed bun with a sweet smile on her face that she had always been reluctant to give in the past, and her eyes were full of expectation.
Cen Yan stared at her for a while, raised his hand to take the steamed bun, broke off a small piece and put it into his mouth.
After just a small sip, she knew what Cen Yan was up to.
It was not in vain that I learned about hundreds of kinds of herbs these days.
Now, she can tell which herbs they are just by smelling them, and then judge based on the rumors circulating outside...
Cen Shuang must have added saffron into this steamed bun!
The steamed buns were freshly made in the evening, and Cen Shuang was staying in the kitchen to help.
I just don’t know if she only added saffron to the steamed bun she was eating, or if she added it to all of them…
This thing is not poisonous, but it will have some effects after women eat it.
If a pregnant woman eats it, she will have a miscarriage.
Long-term use may cause difficulty in getting pregnant.
While thinking, Cen Yan ate steamed buns in small bites and ate some vegetables.
Even if she eats this thing, there is nothing to be afraid of.
After all, she had a space in her hands, so it was very easy to remove the medicinal properties of saffron.
But the question is, where did Cen Shuang get these saffron?
There's no way a little girl like her could accomplish this.
Soon, Cen Yan thought of someone.
That's Wei Zan.
Almost immediately, she was absolutely certain that it was Wei Zan who did it!
Only he has this motive!
Cen Yan ate a whole steamed bun in front of Cen Shuang, which made Cen Shuang feel relieved.
She marked this steamed bun and left it specially for Cen Yan.
After all, there are so many people in the family. It would be bad if any of them were eaten by me or Yu.
Cen Shuang decided to help Cen Yan every day in the future, and take the opportunity to do something to make her eat saffron every day, so that she would never be able to have children in her life...
The meal is finished.
Cen Yan and Li cleaned up the dishes as usual.
Cen Dahai had also finished eating, and Li brought the food over and ate with him.
"Cen Yan, your father has been lying down for another day. He should be almost well now, right? Can he get up and work early tomorrow morning?" Cen Dajiang asked, wiping his mouth.
"No." Cen Yan refused firmly, "My father's injury will take at least five or six days to heal completely!"
"What? Another five or six days!" Cen Dajiang felt aches all over his body when he heard this. "Hasn't he woken up? Besides, there are no serious injuries. Aren't his arms and legs fine?"
"Uncle, have you forgotten how much blood my father lost that night? He still has a bruise on the back of his head. He must wait for the bruise to completely dissipate. Otherwise, if he goes to work in the fields with you now, even if he can swing the hoe, I'm afraid he will fall down again with one hit." Cen Yan said.
Her words made Cen Dajiang feel guilty.
After all, the scene of Cen Dahai bleeding from his head that night is still vivid in his mind.
It was he who injured Cen Dahai and almost killed him.
But he really couldn't stand the days without Cen Dahai working in the fields. He had to do everything, and he was really exhausted!
However, since Cen Yan had said so, he didn't dare to say anything else.
What if she gets unhappy and takes the kitchen knife again?
Not only Cen Dajiang thought so, but people from the first, third and principal wives of the old Cen family also thought so.
"This girl is becoming more and more lawless. Can't we teach her a lesson? If every time we ask her to do something, she takes a kitchen knife to chop people, then wouldn't she become the prince of the family's prison, and no one would dare to control her? Mother, you have to find a way to teach her a lesson!" As soon as Cen Yan left, Cen Ying said to Old Lady Cen indignantly.
Old Mrs. Cen also couldn't stand it.
Cen Yan is becoming more and more powerful now.
But Cen Dahai is not in public now, so she can't use his filial piety to punish Cen Yan.
"Just be patient! Once that rebellious son from the second house is fully recovered, we can deal with this damn girl!" Old Mrs. Cen took a deep breath and said viciously.
"Then we have to wait for several more days!" Cen Ying felt desperate, but there was nothing he could do.
On the side, Cen Shuang listened to the conversation between her grandmother and her aunt, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
No one in the family likes Cen Yan.
Then her plan will surely be implemented smoothly!
…
…
Cen Yan's current fierceness makes everyone in the old Cen family somewhat afraid of her.
Thanks to this, Cen Dahai was able to have a good rest for a few days.
And during these few days, the village was in turmoil.
Regarding those rumors last time, Cen Yan said that after Cen Dahai recovers, he will find a way to prove his innocence.
However, before Cen Dahai could recover, new rumors emerged.
Early in the morning that day, Old Man Cen came back from working in the fields with a gloomy face.
Cen Dajiang and Cen Dahe seemed to have been taught a lesson by him. The two of them were as obedient as two quails, lowering their heads to wash their faces and hands, not daring to say a word.
Before they finished washing their faces, they heard a sudden "bang".
But Old Man Cen was so angry that he threw the towel heavily into the basin, and then shouted angrily at a busy figure in the kitchen: "Cen Yan! Come out!"
"Grandpa? What's wrong?" Cen Yan came out immediately when she heard someone calling her.
As soon as she reached the kitchen door, a basin of water hit her on the head!
