Chapter 18 The score rises rapidly】
"But Zhenghua is in so much pain, we can't just leave him alone." Granny Li said anxiously.
Old Man Ye had a gloomy face and a very complicated expression. If
he doesn't call a doctor, his son will die of pain.
But if he calls a doctor, his son will be arrested and sent to jail for stealing!
This is not easy to handle.
"Dad, I'll take Zhenghua to the hospital."
At this time, Chen Yulan walked into the bedroom with a simple mask that had just been sewn in her hand.
She put it on Ye Zhenghua to cover the wound on his mouth from when he fell, and said to Old Man Ye and the others: "Just say that he drank alcohol and caught a cold in the night wind on the way back."
Old Man Ye's expression relaxed: "Let's do this, Zhenghua's wife, you've worked so hard."
Now everyone gathered at the end of the village, and they haven't started looking for the thief yet.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Yulan supported Ye Zhenghua and limped out of Xiangyang Village.
However, when they passed by a villager's house, the door suddenly opened from the inside.
A young woman who looked to be in her teens or twenties walked out with a lantern in her hand.
Both of them were shocked by the sudden encounter.
After Chen Yulan saw the other person's face clearly, her heart was pounding: "Isn't this Shengying? Where are you going so late at night?"
The young woman in front of her was Wang Shengying, the daughter of the team leader and the director of women's affairs.
"My mother said that Ye Qingyue's family was robbed, and the village wanted to find the thief, so she asked me to deliver the lantern."
Wang Shengying said, looking at Ye Zhenghua, "What's wrong with Uncle Zhenghua?"
At this time, Ye Zhenghua was supported by Chen Yulan, with his head down and his appearance could not be seen clearly.
But Ye Zhenghua was shaking so much from the pain that it was impossible not to pay attention to him.
Chen Yulan noticed her gaze and her heart skipped a beat.
Now Wang Shengying's parents are helping Ye Qingyue.
If Wang Shengying finds out something, she will tell her parents.
Then the fact that Ye Zhenghua is a thief cannot be hidden.
"After work today, he went out to drink with his friends in the county. When he came back, he was caught in the night wind and caught a cold. He kept sneezing. We are afraid that he will infect the elderly at home, so we might as well send him to the hospital now."
After Chen Yulan said this, Wang Shengying also smelled the alcohol.
"Is that so."
Wang Shengying didn't ask any more questions, and hurried to give the lantern to her parents. After saying a few polite words, she left.
Chen Yulan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took Ye Zhenghua away.
Wang Shengying, who had just separated from them, stopped and turned to look at the two people's limping backs, and suddenly found something wrong.
"Isn't there a clinic in the village? Why go to the county hospital instead of going far away?"
...
The next morning.
Qian Yun brought the people who were repairing the house to knock on the door. Ye Qingyue resisted the sleepiness and went to greet them.
Qian Yun helped to watch the house repairs to prevent anyone from slacking off.
"You haven't eaten breakfast yet?"
Qian Yun took out a few vegetable dumplings from the cloth bag and handed them over, "I made them for you."
"How can you say that?"
Ye Xianghong spoke, not letting Ye Qingyue and Ye Feng take it, "We divided the food, there is enough to eat."
"The house is not repaired yet, the kitchen is not usable, and it will be quite late when we finish cleaning these things. You haven't eaten in the meantime, aren't you hungry?"
Qian Yun was very enthusiastic. She forced the vegetable dumplings into Ye Xianghong's hands, "Xianghong, don't be polite with me. When I just gave birth to Wan Shengying, I was in poor health and had to work in the fields. You helped me a lot. Otherwise, I might have starved to death if I didn't earn a mouthful of food at that time!"
The reason why she stood on Ye Qingyue's side from the beginning was not only because this family was pitiful, but also because of the kindness that Ye Xianghong had helped her.
Ye Xianghong couldn't refuse and had to accept it.
"I'll take care of this, you guys go to my house and take a shower."
Qian Yun added, "I've already told Shengying that there will be hot water when you get there."
Ye Xianghong thanked her again and again, carrying the food for the split family, and took Ye Qingyue and Ye Feng to Qian Yun's house.
Captain Wang went to the county to report the police, and only Wang Shengying was at home.
With Qian Yun's advance instructions, she prepared everything.
Ye Qingyue finally took a hot bath and sighed comfortably.
If she didn't take a bath, she would really go bad.
The conditions in this era were still too poor, and the only way to take a bath was to use a red foot basin.
There was no shower, and there was no bathtub that Ye Qingyue liked the most.
As a doctor, he was more or less a germaphobe, and was particularly picky about such things.
"When the system is restarted and the space is opened, I must take a hot bath with milk bath salts!"
Ye Qingyue twisted the towel, missing the oversized bathtub in the space.
The countdown to the opening of the space is 48 hours.
After taking a bath and eating the vegetable dumplings sent by Qian Yun, Ye Qingyue counted the rations she brought out. She would give a big bowl of thick porridge to each of the people who helped repair the house, and stir-fry two side dishes.
There would be enough food left for four or five days, which was enough to get by.
When the space is opened, her family will not have to worry about food and drink, they just need to think about what to do next. After
being reborn, in this era of reconstruction, Ye Qingyue has too many ideas in her mind.
However, if she wants to turn the ideas that came to her mind into a serious plan, she still has to think about it carefully.
After a busy day, Ye Qingyue borrowed bowls and chopsticks from Wang Shengying to put the porridge and vegetables in, and asked Ye Xianghong and Ye Feng to carry the things back first.
"Sister Shengying, here."
Ye Qingyue took out fifty cents from the cloth bag in her arms and stuffed it into Wang Shengying's hand.
"Why are you giving me money?" Wang Shengying was stunned.
Ye Qingyue said, "My family borrowed your hot water to take a bath and used the kitchen, so I have to give you some money for firewood, right?"
"How much is firewood worth? I picked it up from the mountains. Fifty cents is too much. No, no!"
Wang Shengying waved her hand and wanted to return the fifty cents to Ye Qingyue.
Ye Qingyue dodged with a smile, "Sister Shengying, your parents helped my family a lot during the division of the family. I can't take advantage of your family anymore. Just take the money. I'm leaving."
After saying that, Ye Qingyue ran away without waiting for Wang Shengying to answer.
"This person..."
When Wang Shengying reacted, Ye Qingyue was gone. She had no choice but to take the fifty cents and muttered, "She's not as bad as the rumors say."
People in the village said that Ye Qingyue looked weird and was a fox spirit who loved to cheat men and take advantage of them.
She is one year older than Ye Qingyue. When she was in school, she always heard classmates say that some male classmates liked Ye Qingyue and threatened to break up with their boyfriends, so she didn't have a good impression of Ye Qingyue.
Now that she has contact with Ye Qingyue, Wang Shengying feels that although Ye Qingyue looks too charming and looks frivolous, she is very polite in her words and deeds, which makes people feel comfortable.
After using her kitchen, Ye Qingyue cleaned it inside and out, and also cleaned up the corners that her mother usually ignored.
If she is really the lazy and vixen who lives on men as rumored, can she be so efficient?
In Wang Shengying's heart, Ye Qingyue's score soared.
...
Leaving Wang Shengying's house, Ye Qingyue caught up with her mother and brother.
It's not that she was fast, but Ye Xianghong and Ye Feng were blocked halfway.
The person who blocked their way was not someone else, but Ye Qingyue's grandmother, Granny Li.
She was holding Ye Xianghong's hand and was saying something.
Unlike her submissive attitude towards Old Man Ye, Granny Li had a stern face when she spoke to Ye Xianghong.
Even from a distance, one could hear the reprimand in her tone.
Ye Qingyue narrowed her eyes and strode over.
"Grandma, what are you doing?"
