Hua Xiangyun had no time to care about Hua Zhiping anymore, because Tian Guihua's appearance had changed as she went in and out.
His face, which was originally peaceful and joyful, now shows bulging veins on his chin, indicating that he is about to suffer a bloody disaster.
Hua Xiangyun immediately stood up and went to greet her, "Grandma, where were you just now?"
Tian Guihua said, "I'm going to the front yard to talk to your Grandma Li about something."
Hua Xiangyun obediently brought over a stool. "Grandma, you've been busy since this morning, so please sit down and rest."
Now, as long as we keep an eye on Tian Guihua and prevent her from going out again until noon, this disaster will pass.
“My little darling is so considerate,” Tian Guihua said, feeling especially touched. “But I still need to chat with the people in the backyard for a bit, so I won’t go out this afternoon.”
When that time comes, I'll take my beloved granddaughter to see a play. Hmm, the stage is all set up, all that's missing is the lead actor.
Hua Xiangyun held Tian Guihua's hand and said coquettishly, "Grandma, some things can't be rushed."
Look, my brothers have already prepared the chicken. I want to drink the chicken soup you made.
My older brother's cooking skills aren't good enough; I'm afraid he'll ruin the food.
Hua Zhiping looked up at Hua Xiangyun in disbelief. This girl, just last time he cooked for her, she praised his cooking, saying it was better than anyone else's in the family. "..."
But seeing Tian Guihua's joyful expression, he could only purse his lips and say, "..." Whatever makes you happy...
“Your eldest brother has been cooking for me in the kitchen since he was little. Even if he’s slow-witted, he’ll still learn.” Tian Guihua still felt she should say something good about her grandson.
Hua Zhiping, “…” You might as well not say anything.
Unexpectedly, there was someone who would stab you in the back. "Grandma, my brother can stew that chicken, but compared to you, he's always lacking something."
Grandma, I really crave your cooking.
"You old woman, you've gone too far running around like this." Hua Guangzong stopped what he was doing. "Your granddaughter has already spoken up. Does she think things outside are more important than things at home?"
Tian Guihua glared with her triangular eyes, "I haven't even said anything yet, and you old man are already playing the good guy."
My little darling is my precious granddaughter, how could I not indulge her?
As she spoke, her expression changed instantly, and she looked at Hua Xiangyun with a loving expression, saying, "Grandma will listen to you. I'll go clean the pot and make soup right away. Little darling should have an extra bowl then."
Hua Xiangyun: "Okay..." As long as you don't go out, I can drink three bowls without any problem.
But things don't always go smoothly. Just as Tian Guihua put the chicken in the pot, someone called from outside the door.
"Aunt Hua, weren't you looking for Yinghua? She's back from work!" Chen Meili shouted from the backyard.
Tian Guihua responded, stood up and wiped her hands on her clothes, "Hey, wait for me, I'll be right out."
Hua Xiangyun had been watching her closely. Seeing that she was about to leave, she immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Grandma, I still want to eat fried peanuts."
Tian Guihua said, "Be good, Grandma will make it for you when she comes back. You and your brother stay here and watch the fire."
Hua Xiangyun saw Hua Zhiping still squatting by the stove tending the fire, winked at him and said, "My brother just said he was going to take my sister-in-law to the clinic. I can't watch the fire by myself."
The family's doting on Hua Xiangyun has resulted in her not knowing how to start a fire on her own, even though she's already quite old.
Hua Xiangyun is naturally no problem with these trivial matters now. In order to keep Tian Guihua, she can only keep winking and hinting to Hua Zhiping.
Hua Zhiping looked completely bewildered. When did he say that?
Besides, why would someone go to the clinic when they're perfectly fine?
Hua Xiangyun said, "My head isn't spinning anymore, can't you go and ask when I can change the dressing on this wound?"
"Oh, then I can go by myself. Why bring your sister-in-law? She can stay home and watch the fire."
Hua Xiangyun gritted her teeth, "I think my sister-in-law doesn't look too well today, so let's take her to the doctor."
Li Lijuan touched her face, silently asking Hua Zhiping, "Does your face really look that bad?"
Hua Zhiping, whether influenced by psychological suggestion or noticing the difference, nodded and said, "Indeed, your face looks a bit sallow today. We have nothing else to do today, so let's go take a look together."
I have to go to work tomorrow, and it won't be easy to ask for leave then.
Tian Guihua was equally concerned, "Lijuan, if you feel unwell, just say so. I also think your sister is right. Go see a doctor to put your mind at ease."
Seeing that everyone said she looked unwell, Li Lijuan was also a little worried.
Hua Zhiping didn't give her time to think. He grabbed her hand and walked straight out, saying, "Grandpa, Grandma, we'll be right back, it'll be quick."
Well, Tian Guihua also realized she couldn't go to the backyard, so she could only bring Hua Xiangyun, who was following her, to the door and say to Chen Meili, "I'll trouble Meili to make this trip. I have some things to do at home, so I'll go find Yinghua later."
Chen Meili kept looking at Hua Xiangyun behind her, "Xiangyun, you're much better now."
Hua Xiangyun held Tian Guihua's arm tightly and said, "Sister Liu, I'm still a little dizzy, but I can't stay lying on the kang all the time, so I'll go for a walk in the yard."
Looking at her pale face, which had become even thinner, Liu Meili said with heartache, "You've really suffered a lot this time. Your grandma needs to give you some good nourishment."
As he spoke, he stared at her bandaged forehead and said, "Once the wound is a little better, remember to see a doctor for a proper check-up, so that it doesn't leave a scar."
What a pretty girl! If she has a scar on her head, it will be hard for her to find a boyfriend.
At first, I thought Aunt Hua was making a mountain out of a molehill, but now it seems that those families went too far.
She used to be such a lively little girl, but now she looks so sickly.
Hua Xiangyun gave Chen Meili a weak smile, "Thank you for your concern, Sister Liu. I'm feeling a bit dizzy again. Grandma, please help me into the room."
Upon hearing this, Tian Guihua panicked and quickly supported Hua Xiangyun's shoulders, saying, "My little darling, don't scare me. Let's go lie down on the kang (heated brick bed) right away. I'll ask your grandpa to call the doctor."
"Grandma, I'm fine. Besides, didn't Brother go to see the doctor?" In the instant she turned around, Hua Xiangyun winked mischievously at Tian Guihua.
Tian Guihua felt relieved, but still called out nervously, "Meili, I won't entertain you any longer. Let's talk about it next time."
As she walked, she kept muttering, "You're such a disobedient child. You barely escaped with your life, and you insisted on coming out to put my and your grandfather's minds at ease. If something had happened to you, how would I explain it to your parents?"
"Old man, quickly close the gate. Was it too windy just now and blew on Little Darling?"
Chen Meili smacked her lips at the door, and before Hua Guangzong could come over to close the door, she turned around and went to share the latest news with the woman in the backyard.
"I saw Xiangyun today. Her face was pale, and she was so thin that she looked like a ghost."
It was so fragile that it teetered on the brink of collapse just by standing at the doorway and being exposed to a gust of wind.
Looks like he's incredibly lucky to have survived, but I'm guessing his health will suffer in the future...
