The old lady handed over the steamed egg. Jian Yuelan was too embarrassed to say, "Let's eat together."
"You eat."
The old lady refused, "Eat quickly, you're tired of taking care of the children."
The old man and the others also followed suit to persuade her. Jian Yuelan wanted to say that she was not tired, but she could not refuse the kindness and had to eat.
Aunt Hu is a very good cook. The steamed eggs are tender and smooth. Considering the taste of the children, she uses very little salt and the egg smell is a bit strong.
Jian Yuelan ate with gusto and praised Aunt Hu's cooking skills, saying that it was a thoughtful gesture and should not be rejected.
After dinner, the child was still asleep, so she wanted to clean up the dishes, but Uncle Hu stopped her, "No need for you, your Aunt Hu and I will do it."
"Yes, you're exhausted from the car ride and you encountered spies. You should take a rest."
After the old lady spoke, Jian Yuelan had no choice but to go back to the house.
She was really tired, so she took a bath and fell asleep holding the baby in her arms.
In the middle of the night, the baby was hungry, so Jian Yuelan got up to make milk powder for him. She heard voices outside, and it was Ye Linxing who came back.
A few minutes later, he entered the room and found both mother and daughter awake. He whispered, "Did I wake you?"
"No, Doudou is hungry."
The little boy leaned in her arms, eating his meal with his bottle in hand, not even bothering to glance at his father.
Ye Linxing was already used to it, so he didn't rush over. Instead, he took some clean clothes and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower before coming to the bed with his body still steaming, and hugged Jian Yuelan.
"Wife, I may be busy for a while."
This means that he will have no time to accompany his grandparents from now on, and only she and Dou Dou can show their filial piety.
"Is it complicated?"
"Um."
He responded, "This incident involves the coordinated efforts of several departments, and I am one of them."
Having said that, he lowered his eyes to look at Jian Yuelan, "What's going on with that poison?"
"The useless medicine Dad gave me."
"Taking this useless medicine can make life worse than death?"
"cannot."
Knowing what he meant, she didn't keep him in suspense. "Remember when I untied Chu Qiuyun?"
"Remember, you did something wrong?"
"I stuck an embroidery needle in her."
Ye Linxing's eyes suddenly widened, "How could she not feel the needle entering her body?"
“Normally, yes.”
But Chu Qiuyun was in an abnormal situation at the time. As soon as she entered the soft sleeper compartment that was converted into an interrogation room, she discovered that Chu Qiuyun had been tortured.
"The pain of an embroidery needle entering an acupuncture point is nothing compared to the pain you caused her."
"As long as I don't make any big movements, I don't feel anything. But once I do, I feel unbearable pain and my whole body becomes weak."
Ye Linxing suddenly realized that it was no wonder that she suddenly jumped up and fell to the ground when the rope was untied.
"Can the needle be taken out?"
"Can."
She nodded, "It's just going to be a bit hard, and I'll have to have surgery."
Ye Linxing, who had never expected her to give such an answer, was stunned for a moment and hesitated, "Wife, tell me the truth, what will happen to Chu Qiuyun if we don't have surgery to remove the needles?"
"Life is worse than death."
Jian Yuelan smiled coldly, "It's not a fatal point, so it won't kill you, but the needle will shift, and the process will be uncomfortable."
