Chapter 93 The Courtyard



This is quite distressing; regardless, it was a precious life.

When Grandma Jiang found out, she sighed heavily, "Every family has its difficult times. In the future, lend a helping hand if you can, and at least don't push people to the brink of death."

“Hmm,” Jiang Nuan said with a look of annoyance, “I always thought their family was struggling, but I didn’t know the specifics. I should have helped them sooner.”

She initially planned to wait a few days until she had some spare money after selling the cabbages before helping out, but now she realizes that not everything goes according to her wishes.

The news about Huang Ye eventually got out.

Many people saw the Huang brothers transporting people in an oxcart, and after learning about the situation, many went to help.

This newly emerged major event attracted the attention of everyone in Huangjiakou, and no one even questioned the fact that Jiang Nuan's family had suddenly acquired an extra cow.

Knowing that Huang Ye's wife hadn't gone with them, Jiang Nuan packed some nourishing brown sugar, flour, and meat bones, and led her three daughters-in-law to deliver the gifts.

When they arrived at Huang Ye's house, they were surprised to find a group of women gathered in the courtyard.

Everyone was holding something in their hands; some had a few eggs, some a packet of brown sugar, and some a scoop of flour...

Those who really had no money took half a bag of wild vegetables they had picked themselves.

In short, no one came empty-handed.

Upon seeing Jiang Nuan arrive, the previously lively atmosphere suddenly changed, and everyone subtly took a step back.

"Fifth sister-in-law, you've come to visit too?" a woman greeted with a smile.

After nodding in greeting, Jiang Nuan asked, "Fourth Sister-in-law, is it the same?"

“That’s right,” a worried look appeared on the woman’s face. “Such a big thing has happened, it would be inexcusable not to come and see.”

Everyone in Huangjiakou knew about Huang Ye's situation, but every family was tightening their belts to make ends meet, so they wanted to help but were powerless to do so.

However, after such an incident, I still couldn't help but feel a bit guilty.

They've watched me grow up since I was a child, so how could I really be indifferent?

"Thank you, aunties and sisters-in-law," Huang Ye's wife wiped away her tears and bowed deeply. "When my husband comes back from town, my husband and I will personally come to thank you."

Even if it's just carrying someone on her back, she'll carry them across.

This is something the couple owed.

“What are you saying?” Sister-in-law Huang said disapprovingly. “It’s just a little something. Why are you saying thank you? We’re all from the same family. How can we not lend a hand?”

“That’s right,” someone in the crowd echoed. “Huang Mu’s wife, don’t worry. We found it early and sent it away quickly. Your husband will be fine.”

"Yes," Huang Ye's wife said, her voice choked with emotion, "Thanks to the aunties' kind words, the husband will surely be safe and sound."

She was very worried, and she was very grateful to those who talked to her.

Jiang Nuan, who hadn't been able to get a word in edgewise for a while, silently handed over what she was holding. "This is a little something from Fifth Aunt. Keep it to nourish Huang Ye. I'll come see you again next time."

After saying that, Jiang Nuan left with her daughter-in-law.

Since she's ruining the atmosphere here, she can't be so tactless.

After Jiang Nuan left, the atmosphere in the courtyard was quiet for a moment.

Then, murmurs arose.

"Why do I feel like Aunt Wu isn't as scary as she used to be?" a young woman's voice rang out.

“I think so too,” a slightly older woman echoed. “He’s become much more peaceful, unlike before, when he would be gloomy and hostile to everyone, as if someone owed him ten taels of silver.”
