When Yue returned to the village in September, he won the attention of the entire village.
Of course, no one knew that Yue Jiuyue was in the carriage as it traveled through the village. But the children were very curious, so they followed it all the way to Yue Jiuyue's house. Once they found out that the person who got out of the carriage was Yue Jiuyue, they scattered in all directions.
Then Yue Jiuyue made headlines in Linjiagou Village.
#Why did the rural widow take a horse-drawn carriage home?#
#A widow with many children and grandchildren is going to remarry#
#The unusual hobbies of the rich are actually...#
Only a small number of people were discussing how Yue Jiuyue's family had made a lot of money, built two houses, and even bought a carriage. They then made sarcastic remarks that made people angry.
Of course, no matter what gossip the villagers spread, it wouldn't reach Yue Jiuyue's family. They didn't interact much with the villagers to begin with, and after the last incident, they stopped going to the village altogether.
As for leaving and returning to the village, that's unavoidable, just a matter of exchanging a casual greeting. They don't want to stop and chat with those people.
"Mom! You're back!"
While curiously watching the carriage outside the courtyard gate, Madam Liu welcomed Yue Jiuyue into the house.
She was in a pretty good mood. Although she was still a little worried about the three people in the room, the doctor said they were fine, so her worries were limited.
"Yes, the doctor examined you, right? What did they say?"
Yue Jiuyue asked, still feeling uneasy.
Her concerns differed from Liu's. Yue Jiuyue's concern stemmed from humanitarianism, much like calling an ambulance if she saw a stranger seriously injured on the street. She was now in that state of mind—having already made the call and the ambulance had taken the patient away, all that remained was for the doctor to heal the person.
"The doctors have all examined me and said it's just superficial wounds, and they haven't even prescribed any medicine."
Liu replied with a hint of resentment.
My head is so swollen I can't even recognize myself! The doctor's already come, how can they not even prescribe any medicine? I'd appreciate it if the swelling could go down sooner!
Liu had not yet noticed the change in her mindset.
If this had happened before, whether it was shortly after Yue Jiuyue transmigrated or before, Liu Shi would never have thought this way.
Back then, the family was so poor that even mice wouldn't visit. If the three Lin brothers had been beaten like this, Liu would have had no heart to think about medicine, and she might not even have been willing to use water for cold or hot compresses!
Now, it's just that I've made some money selling sweet potatoes, which has given me some confidence.
"Oh, it's alright. Go and make a couple of dishes, and roast some sweet potatoes. We called Dr. Li and the others over at this hour, and they probably haven't had lunch yet. It's a good opportunity for them to try our sweet potatoes."
Yue Jiuyue instructed Liu to cook, but hesitated whether to ask Doctor Li about the children's condition again. She felt that Liu already knew, so it would be redundant to ask again. So she paced back and forth at the door of the main room.
"Grandma!"
Little Man'er ran over from somewhere and hugged Yue Jiuyue's leg.
"What's wrong, Xiaoman?"
Yue Jiuyue lifted Xiaoman'er up by her armpits and held her in her arms.
"Grandma, what's that?"
The little girl pointed to the carriage parked at the gate and asked curiously.
