Chapter 163 Ask a Question
"This Ning girl looks pretty good." Meng said with a smile while picking up the pillows.
"How did you figure that out?" Zhuang Yutian raised his eyes, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Meng.
"When I was talking to her just now, I saw that she looked calm and her eyes were clear. She was much more mature than other girls of the same age. She was not overly shy and was very calm and confident. It was really rare."
Mrs. Meng smiled and said, "The most important thing is that when I said I wanted to give her the purse, she was neither too happy nor too reluctant. From the look on her face, she seemed to be unsure of what I was thinking and was afraid to draw any conclusions. I knew she was not a rash person."
"She is so young, but she can act like an adult. I heard you say that you can take good care of your mother-in-law. The tofu shop is doing a booming business. It can be seen that this Ning girl is not a simple person. Who knows, she will be blessed in the future."
"Speaking of which, if you want to help Ning girl, since she runs a tofu shop, why don't we help her attract more business in the county so that Ning girl can earn more?"
Meng took the tea, took a sip, looked at Zhuang Yutian and smiled.
"We don't have to worry about this." Zhuang Yutian said, "Ning's tofu shop is doing very well. Several shops in the county town have a worker come to the tofu shop to deliver tofu every day. We just added two tofu pots."
"I heard that Miss Ning has made dried tofu, thousand sheets and other things again. The salted duck eggs are also delicious. Recently, she is growing some bean sprouts. They all taste good. There will be no worries about not being able to sell them in the future."
"You are really stupid." Mrs. Meng rolled her eyes at Zhuang Yutian and said unhappily, "Whether someone can use it or not is one thing, but whether you have the intention to do so is another. You have to show your style and let others know that you are thinking about them. Otherwise, it will show that you are immature, right?"
"That's right..." Zhuang Yutian scratched his ear, thinking, "It's just that the tofu and other things sold in the county were all arranged by Ning girl. We don't know if there is any secret. If we rashly attract business, we don't know whether it is good or bad."
"If I do something bad with good intentions, not only will I not be able to help others, but I will also cause trouble. That would be bad."
"That's right." Mrs. Meng nodded: "Then have you ever thought about whether she needs anything else?"
After all, he has no parents, needs to be self-reliant, and has to support his younger sister. Meng felt that he definitely needs help.
"Let me think about it..."
Zhuang Yutian sat on a stool, counting on his fingers, and muttered, "I heard that Ning girl is planning to build a house, and it's inconvenient to always live in Hua the butcher's house, but the village head uncle has taken over this matter. Now my aunt's nephew has almost filled the hole. If we intervene, it will seem like we are fighting for something, and it won't look good in the eyes of the village head uncle."
"As for other things, apart from the tofu shop business, I don't think Ning lacks anything..."
Zhuang Yutian's face was immediately dejected, but suddenly a light flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but slap his thigh: "Oh, I remember now."
"What did you remember..." Meng was startled by Zhuang Yutian's sudden shout. She hurriedly looked at Wen, fearing that Zhuang Yutian's loud shouting would wake her up.
When he saw that Wen was still sleeping soundly, he breathed a sigh of relief and signaled Zhuang Yutian to keep the noise down and not to lift the roof off.
Zhuang Yutian scratched his ear awkwardly, and moved closer to Meng, lowering his voice even more: "I just suddenly remembered that I could do something to help Miss Ning."
"What's the matter?" Seeing Zhuang Yutian's excited look, Meng became curious.
"Think about it, Miss Ning has suffered a lot in the past few years. Even now that she has finally started this tofu shop, she can't feel at ease. Why is it so?" Zhuang Yutian said with a wink.
"You mean..."
“That’s it…”
"If that's the case, it's not impossible..." Meng raised her eyelids and nodded thoughtfully. ——Zhuang Ruman felt that these days were particularly difficult.
Firstly, it was because of the injury on the buttocks.
Not only did the dung fork pierce him very deeply, but he was also hit by that idiot Zhuang Yucheng that day, and the wound was connected to the cloth strip. When he peeled it off, some flesh was torn off with it, and he almost fainted from the pain.
Moreover, it has been getting hotter these days, and the wound seems to have no chance of healing. Not only is it festering and uncomfortable, but I have to sprinkle that precious medicine powder on it twice a day. And every time I sprinkle it, it feels like being stabbed with a knife, and it hurts excruciatingly.
I lay in bed all day, unable to move. The slightest movement would cause terrified pain. I could only lie in bed obediently, not daring to move. I felt like a useless person.
That would be fine, but the most important thing is that Zhuang Yucheng seems to be staying at his house these past few days. He comes to his house all day long for no reason, yelling at him and scolding him. When the scolding gets too severe, he even resorts to violence.
I don't know which bastard is at the door of his house, but he always pours his excrement and urine from the previous night at the door of his house. In broad daylight, it attracts a swarm of mosquitoes and flies, which just buzz around the door. It's disgusting to look at.
The mosquitoes and flies kept flying into the house, forcing Zhuang Rumen to keep driving away those annoying little creatures to avoid being bitten.
He was unable to move these days and could not work in the fields. Only Song, Zhuang Qinghe and Zhuang Yuanzhong did the work in the fields.
It was fine that Song was there, as she usually listened to him. Zhuang Yuanzhong was also a good person. Although he was small and weak and worked slowly, he was very diligent. He was even sick from exhaustion these past two days.
Only Zhuang Qinghe was truly hopeless. In the past, she could still move around and do some work because he beat and scolded her. But these past few days, probably because she saw him lying on the bed unable to move and unable to beat her, she became indifferent to what she said.
He eats and drinks all day long, and doesn't work in the fields. He just washes his hair and face, and takes care of his fat face.
Seeing that there was so much work to do in the fields, and it was almost time to harvest the wheat, if the wheat grew and matured in the fields, with wheat seeds scattered all over the ground, wouldn't this season's harvest be wasted? Thinking of this, Zhuang Ruman was furious.
As a result of this anger, the wounds on his body healed even more slowly. Because of the anger and the hot weather, he felt irritated all over. Blisters appeared on the corners of his mouth and he had difficulty speaking.
But these are not the most important things. What is important is that Zhuang Yuanren is back.
When he came back, he didn't look very happy.
Zhuang Ruman's heart skipped a beat and he immediately felt that something was not going well.
