Chapter 512: You know a person’s face but not his heart



“I will just pretend I didn’t hear what you said today.

However, remember to be careful with your words and actions in the future, especially when you are outside.

After all, people’s hearts are hidden in their stomachs. You can know a person’s face but not his heart!”

After Huo Jingxuan finished speaking, he patted the village chief's shoulder emphatically.

Then he called Zhao Dashan and Zhao Dagui over and said, "Isn't your daughter still unconscious?

Why don't you hurry up and lead the way? I'll let my wife go and take a look at them.

You're going to be a bride tomorrow, is it okay for you to be unconscious now?"

Zhao Dagang and Zhao Dagui originally thought that Huo Jingxuan called them over because he wanted to hold them accountable for the beating, or to hold them jointly responsible!

After all, that vicious woman Cao Jinhua married into his family and is now the daughter-in-law of their Zhao family!

They never thought that they were doing this to treat their daughter's illness.

He immediately knelt down, kowtowed and expressed his gratitude.

Just now they were thinking about saving their daughter!

But when I thought about the fact that she was Mrs. Huo, how could she condescend to treat a peasant girl like them!

I wanted to speak countless times, but was defeated by my own cowardice.

They even secretly slapped themselves twice, secretly cursing themselves for being doomed, and trembled when they saw the nobleman's legs, and they didn't even dare to open their mouths.

They are not worthy of being a father!

After Leng Yue took Xiaohong and Xiaoliu's pulse, she found out that the reason they had not woken up yet was that they were hungry.

She looked at the Zhao family carefully, although they were not rich.

But it wouldn't be to the extent that my daughter would be starved to the point of fainting, right?

Leng Yue didn't say a word after taking the pulse, which made Xiaohong and Xiaoliu's parents very anxious.

I thought my daughter was in bad condition!

Afraid that Leng Yue was Mrs. Huo, they didn't even dare to cry loudly and just shed tears silently.

When Leng Yue looked around the room and accidentally saw them, she was startled.

"Why are you crying?"

It’s better not to ask, I can still hold it in!

When Leng Yue asked this, Xiaohong and Xiaoliu's parents burst into tears.

She ran to her daughters' beds in two or three steps, hugged them and rocked them while crying.

"My girl, you are still so young, why did you leave?

Do you have the heart to abandon father and mother and leave us, the old ones, to bury the young ones?

God, you are so unfair. You have to take me instead of you.

Anyway, I have lived to this age and it is enough, please let my daughter go!"

The two brothers Zhao Dagang and Zhao Dagui, who were very angry, immediately picked up the axe at home and rushed out of the yard.

He was still shouting, "Damn you vicious woman Cao Jinhua, it's all your fault.

Death is too easy for you. I will chop your body into pieces and feed it to the dogs.

I will shatter your soul and make you unable to be reborn forever!"

Leng Yue hurriedly stopped them. After all, they could still use Cao Jinhua's body!

If you chop it up and feed it to the dogs, that would be a waste.

"Stop, both of you come back."

Then he pushed Xiao Hong and Xiao Liu's mother and said, "You two should shut up and stop crying.

Your daughter isn't dead yet, yet you two are howling and shaking her.

Even if the good guys are not scared to death by you two, they will be killed by you two."

Upon hearing that their daughters were not dead, Xiaohong and Xiaoliu's mother hurried to check on their daughters' breathing.

He was indeed still breathing, and he sat down on the ground in excitement.

“It’s great to still have breath.

Fortunately, it was a false alarm, but we were scared to death."

Zhao Dagang and Zhao Dagui also hurried over to check their daughter's breath. After confirming that she was still breathing, they put down the axe in their hands.

Then he asked Leng Yue, "Madam Huo, since they are both alive, why are they still unconscious?"

Leng Yue got angry when this was mentioned, "How dare you ask? They fainted from hunger, did you know that?"

"What?

Fainted from hunger?" Xiaohong and Xiaoliu's parents asked in surprise.

"Impossible, how is this possible?

My family has never been one that favors boys over girls, and we always give priority to children when it comes to eating and drinking.

And ever since my daughter was favored by the military commander, I have been finding ways to make delicious food for her.

One reason was to teach her how to cook, after all, her future husband would be an official.

It's really unacceptable if you can't prepare a presentable feast.

If she loses her husband's face again, I'm afraid her life will be difficult in the future.

Another purpose is to provide nutrition for children.

Their husbands all work very hard, and they have to give birth to children for them as soon as possible.

They are still too young, and I’m afraid their bodies are too weak to conceive.

They are also afraid that they will not be able to carry the baby if they get pregnant, or that they are too thin and will suffer during childbirth.

Madam Huo, I, Zhuang, am an honest person and I would never lie.

If I tell a lie today, I will be punished by God."

Leng Yue felt that there was really no need for Zhuang to swear, and no one forced her to do so.

But when she saw Zhao Da Kui's wife looking at Zhuang with vicious eyes, she finally understood the reason.

It turned out that the oath was made for Zhao Da Kui's wife.

Next, Zhao Da Kui’s wife knelt down in front of Leng Yue.

"I beg Madam Huo to save my Xiao Liu. Now I don't believe anyone. I want to hear from my Xiao Liu in person what's going on."

When Zhuang heard her sister-in-law's words, she felt sad and anxious.

"Ask if you want, I have a clear conscience.

Zhang, please stop glaring at me. I haven't treated your daughter badly. I'll just leave this out for now."

Leng Yue saw that the two were still arguing with each other, but she saw that Zhuang's eyes were clear and firm, and she did not look like she was lying.

But Xiaohong and Xiaoliu were indeed fainted from hunger.

These two things were contradictory, and she had no other choice but to wake the person up and ask him what was going on. This was her only option.

Waking them up was a piece of cake for Leng Yue.

After two injections, the person woke up.

Leng Yue first fed each of them a bottle of glucose, and then let them drink some spiritual spring water.

Although I can’t say that Xiaohong and Xiaoliu can be full of energy instantly, but there is definitely no problem in replying a few words.

When Zhang saw that her daughter had woken up, she pushed Zhuang, who was about to come forward, to the side.

He came up and hugged his daughter and was about to cry, Leng Yue frowned.

Remind her kindly, "Business is more important, don't waste time, they are still sick!"

Zhang immediately held back the tears that were already in her eyes and the words that were already in her throat.

I asked my daughter, "Xiao Liu, tell me, why did you faint from hunger?

Your aunt didn't give you food to eat?"

As she spoke, Zhang did not forget to glare at Zhuang.

When Xiao Liu saw her mother like that and the harsh words she said, she immediately got angry.

"Mom, do you have no conscience when you say this?

Auntie would rather starve herself than let me starve."
