"Ye Weiwei, did you really save Wu Dayou's wife and child? When did you learn medicine?"
As soon as Ye Weiwei returned to the dormitory at the educated youth settlement, Xu Meijun greeted her and asked her questions.
Ye Weiwei handed the basket to Chen Jiali, who was preparing to cook, saying, "I picked some mushrooms and a few wild eggs on the mountain today. Let's add some vegetables to the meal."
Chen Jiali took the eggs and her eyes lit up when she saw there were six wild eggs. "Weiwei, you're so lucky! You found so many wild eggs! No wonder everyone in the village calls you a lucky charm! Don't worry, leave the cooking to me!"
When the people in the courtyard heard that Ye Weiwei had brought out wild eggs to add to their meals, they were all very grateful.
Xu Meijun pulled Ye Weiwei along, "Tell me quickly, are the rumors in the village true?"
Ye Weiwei was truly impressed by how quickly gossip spread in the village. She had only left Wu Dayou's house and chatted with Liu Guilan for a while, but the news had already reached everyone in the educated youth settlement.
However, there was no point in hiding this, and Ye Weiwei had already come up with an excuse.
"I only learned a little bit from my grandfather when I was a child."
Xu Meijun rolled her eyes. "You're kidding me. If you really learned a little bit, could you have pulled Wu Dayou's wife back from the brink of death? I heard from the villagers that when Wu Dayou's wife was in such a condition, the midwife came and said there was no hope and told them to prepare for the worst. Ye Weiwei, you're really not honest at all!"
Ye Weiwei winked mischievously, "Then what do you want me to say? Do you want me to say that I am well-versed in medical principles and have superb medical skills, that I can not only bring the dead back to life but also revive them?"
Xu Meijun was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. "You...you're so shameless! How can you brag like that?"
Ye Weiwei looked at Xu Meijun helplessly, "Look at this, when I'm modest you say I'm not honest, when I'm not modest you call me shameless, this is so hard for me."
Xu Meijun stared blankly at Ye Weiwei for a while before she reacted and glared at her angrily with her hands on her hips, "You, can't you speak properly? You're being completely unreasonable!"
Ye Weiwei patted Xu Meijun on the shoulder, "Alright, you're so easily teased. I know you're just concerned about me."
Xu Meijun awkwardly slapped Ye Weiwei's hand away, and said stubbornly, "Who cares about you! Don't be so conceited! Humph!"
After saying that, he rolled his eyes and left.
Ye Weiwei: ……
Even if she's just being delusional!
Look at that eye roll, so cute!
Inside the dormitory, Ye Wanwan listened to Ye Weiwei and Xu Meijun playing around outside, and felt extremely resentful.
Birds of a feather flock together, they're both vixens!
Seeing Ye Wanwan staring at Ye Weiwei's recliner, Li Jing couldn't help but ask, "Ye Wanwan, do you also think this recliner takes up too much space? Ye Weiwei, really, our dorm is so small and you still bought this thing. Look, there's no room to even step off the kang (heated brick bed) over there."
Ye Wanwan sneered inwardly upon hearing Li Jing's words. What did Li Jing mean? Who was she trying to instigate?
You want to use her as a pawn?
Don't you even know your own limitations?
However, looking at the recliner, Ye Wanwan suddenly had a thought, and a thoughtful expression appeared on her face. "I also think it's a bit strange that she insisted on buying this recliner. She probably thinks there's something special about it!"
After saying that, she casually brought up the past, "Weiwei has always been very lucky since she was a child. It's not wrong that the villagers say she's a lucky baby. I remember that she often found things that we couldn't find when she was little. Once she even took out a gold bar from a hidden compartment under her grandfather's desk and played with it, which amazed all of us. She was very good at finding treasures."
Li Jing was completely unable to think; her mind was filled with thoughts of hidden compartments, gold bars, and other treasures.
Her gaze towards the recliner became intense.
Could there be some hidden treasure inside this recliner?
Ye Wanwan looked at Li Jing's greedy appearance and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
Zhao Mingzhe recently told her not to provoke Ye Weiwei anymore. If she doesn't show up, then let this idiot cause trouble for Ye Weiwei, right?
If we manage things properly, we might be able to give that little bitch Ye Weiwei a big gift!
The next day, when Ye Weiwei finished work, Wu Dayou came to the educated youth settlement to return her bicycle and gave her two red-skinned eggs.
Ye Weiwei happily accepted it.
In rural areas, when a family has a new baby, they will distribute red-shelled eggs. This serves two purposes: first, to share the joy with relatives and friends, and second, to show that the family values and likes the child.
Ye Weiwei knew exactly what kind of person Wu Dayou's mother was. If it weren't for the large number of people in her family yesterday, and Liu Guilan's support, even if Ye Weiwei had saved Zhao Yue'e and the child, she could have falsely accused Ye Weiwei of turning her perfectly good grandson into a granddaughter and made her compensate her for her grandson.
Last night, Liu Guilan whispered to her that Wu Dayou's mother must have let someone see that Zhao Yue'e's belly was a girl and didn't want the baby, so she deliberately made Zhao Yue'e fall to try to make her miscarry. That's why the old hag chased them away at the beginning and wouldn't let them save her.
Therefore, these red eggs must have been prepared by Wu Dayou and his wife themselves.
Although Wu Dayou looked haggard, he had a look of relief and joy on his face when he talked about his children and wife, which showed that he was not a sexist.
Ye Weiwei asked Wu Dayou to wait while she went to her dormitory to get a bag of brown sugar and a bag of milk powder for him.
Judging from the way Wu Dayou's mother looks, it's impossible for her to help with postpartum care; these are the things they need.
Upon seeing the brown sugar and milk powder, Wu Dayou immediately waved his hand and refused. Ye Weiwei had saved his wife and child's lives, and he was already grateful beyond measure. How could he possibly accept anything from his benefactor?
"Take this." Ye Weiwei stuffed the things into Wu Dayou's hands. "Your wife lost too much blood and needs to replenish her qi and blood. She was born prematurely and hasn't started producing milk yet, right? The baby is already weak, and if she doesn't eat something nutritious, it will be hard for her to survive."
"I..." Wu Dayou's eyes were filled with tears. After hearing Ye Weiwei's words, the things in his hands felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, but he was no longer willing to return them.
"Ye Zhiqing, from now on, my life belongs to you. If you need anything, just come to me."
Ye Weiwei chuckled, "What would I do with your life! These things are nothing to me."
Wu Dayou, however, thought differently. “It’s nothing to you, but these things don’t just fall from the sky. Besides, these can save my wife and children’s lives. I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life.”
Seeing that he was about to cry again, Ye Weiwei quickly waved her hand and sent him away.
Ye Weiwei turned around and saw Ye Wanwan looking at her, looking like she wanted to say something but couldn't. Ye Weiwei sneered inwardly and didn't even bother to give her a glance.
"Weiwei, you're still so trusting. Be careful not to get scammed!"
