Chapter 144: Gestures
"So Weiwei can forgive me now?" Yu Jinhuai sneered and looked at Song Weiwei with interest.
Song Weiwei turned her head away and stopped thinking. Even though she had not yet gotten over Yu Jinhuai's huge identity, she didn't want to talk to this man now.
"Why are you all standing? Sit down quickly." Gu Yuan's mother said while holding the dishes and looking at the people who were standing there in a daze.
The weird atmosphere was broken by her arrival.
"Mr. Yu, please do it quickly."
Lian'er walked aside and sat down, leaving a seat next to her and inviting Yu Jinhuai to come over.
Yu Jinhuai smiled at her and sat down beside her. Song Weiwei snorted coldly and sat between Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang.
Yu Jinhuai tilted his head in confusion as he watched Song Weiwei's series of actions. He didn't know how he had made the little woman unhappy again.
Gu Yuanniang had originally only cooked a few simple dishes, but when she saw Yu Jinhuai coming with a woman, she went to cook a few more dishes, which wasted a lot of time.
By the time all the dishes were served, Erbao was so hungry that he was chomping at the bit and was about to eat the dishes in front of him with his eyes shining.
"Slow down, little greedy cat." Xu Miaomiao stroked the girl's hair behind her head and spoke as she looked at her.
"This Erbao is a real good eater. In our place, girls are all known to eat in a gentle manner, but it's rare to see Erbao with such a good appetite." Lian'er looked at Erbao's appearance and said with a smile.
I thought it was a joke, but seeing that no one was smiling at all, Lian'er was a little at a loss.
Song Weiwei glanced at her unhappily, picked up a piece of pork ribs and put it in Erbao's bowl: "It's okay, eat more."
Didn't Lian'er's implicit meaning just now mean that Erbao was ungentlemanly and didn't act like a girl? Did she really think they couldn't hear it, Song Weiwei thought secretly.
Yu Jinhuai was also a little embarrassed, but after all, he brought this person back by himself, so he had to take care of it himself, so he picked up another piece of green vegetable and put it in Lian'er's bowl: "Eat more vegetables and talk less."
Xu Miaomiao and Gu Yuanniang were amused by Yu Jinhuai's serious look, but Song Weiwei only paid attention to the hand that Yu Jinhuai was picking up food for Lian'er and remained silent.
When Lian Er heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she spoke with a choked voice: "Did Lian Er say something wrong and made everyone unhappy?"
As he spoke, he picked up the handkerchief beside him and covered his nose with it, and tears as big as beans began to flow.
Xu Miaomiao was stunned by what she saw. She thought a girl like Dongdong was pretty enough, but she didn't expect Lian'er to be even worse.
She looked so pitiful to begin with, and she could cry at any time, which made anyone feel sorry for her.
But Song Weiwei didn't think so. Looking at the woman's appearance, she just felt annoyed and rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction.
"Madam Lian'er, that's not what I meant." Yu Jinhuai tried his best to explain.
But as soon as he spoke, his daughter cried even harder.
"At that time, our entire family suffered from famine in Xing County and starved to death. It was Mr. Yu who saved me, so Lian'er was able to escape. But now even Mr. Yu despises Lian'er, and Lian'er doesn't know what to do." As she spoke, tears fell down her face like they were free, and everyone was stunned.
"Since Mr. Yu is hiding from the people of the South Country, how could he save a woman so brazenly?" Xu Miaomiao said.
"Alas." Yu Jinhuai sighed: "I was not only avoiding Nangong's people, I also went to look for my master. I haven't seen him for a long time, so I left for a while."
"So that's how it is." Gu Yuanniang nodded in agreement.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were not on her, Lian'er fell silent, but her eyes were still slightly red, and she looked a little pitiful.
"Tsk." Song Weiwei made a dissatisfied sound and looked at Yu Jinhuai and said, "No matter how much you learn, you can't compare to my sister-in-law. She is very powerful. Your medical skills are nothing compared to hers."
After saying that, he glared at Yu Jinhuai with dissatisfaction before stopping.
Yu Jinhuai was not annoyed and smiled at Song Weiwei: "I can't say anything else. Madam Xu does have some medical skills, but it's still unknown who is better."
Gu Yuanniang sneered when she heard this: "Mr. Yu is too confident. Our Miaomiao was once a person who had to endure the plague."
"This plague is just a small virus I developed. If I can't even cure it, I wouldn't be qualified to be a doctor." Yu Jinhuai said with a laugh.
Lian'er, who was standing by, also echoed this and said, "Yes, Mr. Yu's medical skills are obvious to all. Madam Xu, as a woman, you should stay at home to take care of your husband and children, and stay out of the limelight."
"Haha." Xu Miaomiao chuckled and looked at Lian'er and said, "Then according to your idea, you should be a good wife and mother. What are you doing? Could it be that Yu Jinhuai is your husband?"
Hearing this, Lian'er blushed, and Yu Jinhuai, who was sitting on a plate, frowned and said nothing.
"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Gu Yuanniang at the side said, "Since both of you claim that you have the best medical skills, why don't you compete and see who is better?"
"This is the best solution for me." Song Weiwei also responded.
Lian'er, on the other hand, looked at Yu Jinhuai with some worry, and clenched the handkerchief in her hand.
"Okay, why don't we have a competition, Madam Xu." Yu Jinhuai also spoke.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Xu Miaomiao nodded: "In that case, how about we each take out a poison that we made and see who can solve it."
"Okay." Yu Jinhuai agreed immediately and looked at Xu Miaomiao without saying a word.
Xu Miaomiao took out a poison that she had discovered before from the space and handed it to Yu Jinhuai, and Yu Jinhuai also took it out and gave it to Xu Miaomiao.
"The rule is to see who can open the poison first."
Listening to Xu Miaomiao's words, Yu Jinhuai nodded in response.
The poison that Yu Jinhuai had was not difficult, and Xu Miaomiao quickly found a way to crack it. She immediately wrote the antidote on a piece of paper and rang the bell first.
Yu Jinhuai was a little panicked when he saw how fast she moved. He still couldn't find the antidote until the hourglass had run out. He could only lower his head and said, "I lost."
"Hehe." Song Weiwei laughed and patted Yu Jinhuai on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's not shameful to lose to Xu Miaomiao."
Lian'er, who was standing by, also stepped forward and comforted Yu Jinhuai: "Mr. Yu is already a very powerful person in Lian'er's heart. It doesn't matter if he loses."
The gentle tone gave people goose bumps. Seeing this, Song Weiwei walked aside in dissatisfaction.
