"Mother-in-law, it really has nothing to do with me. I don't even know who did it. They're saying I offended them."
After Sun Wei was beaten, I became very careful when I went out.
Liu Cuifang knelt on the ground, looking particularly aggrieved.
"Wei'er can't just be beaten for nothing. You'd better not cause any more trouble. If it weren't for the fact that you're pregnant, this matter wouldn't be over so easily."
Sun's mother said a few harsh words, but didn't intend to do anything to her, after all, she was pregnant.
"yes".
Liu Cuifang gritted her teeth. "Wei Yuyan, it's all that damned Wei Yuyan's fault! She made me feel so humiliated!"
"Brother-in-law, how's business in town today?"
Wei Yuyan thought that if business was bad, she should take a vacation early.
"Business is good today. It's sunny and there are a lot of people at the market."
My brother-in-law was eating heartily; he had eaten two steamed buns early in the morning while working, and they were already digested.
"That's good. If business is good, then we'll have to work a few more days."
Wei Yuyan said with a smile.
"It's not hard work, it's just a matter of getting up a little earlier."
My brother-in-law shook his head. "The weather's cold now, so the minced meat will keep longer."
They prepared the minced meat last night and put it in the well. They wrapped it up and steamed it the next morning, so they didn't have to get up too early.
"Tomorrow is the Little New Year, and I'd like to have them all come over for lunch. Then we'll go to town to buy groceries."
Wei Yuyan thought that since she would spend the New Year at home anyway, she could invite everyone to get together tomorrow at noon.
"I'll take the carriage with you tomorrow."
Wu Chen quickly chimed in, "Now that we have a horse-drawn carriage at home, it would be a waste not to use it."
"Okay, brother-in-law, I'll show you something good."
Wei Yuyan asked Chen Yu to go look at the ginseng.
December 24th, the eve of the Lunar New Year~
Wu Chen got up early in the morning, made breakfast, and waited for them to get up.
"Did you make breakfast today?"
Wei Yuyan was a little surprised; why was this guy so diligent?
"Before, my legs were bad and it was inconvenient, but now that I can walk slowly, how can I be lazy?"
From now on, I'll make breakfast. I might not be able to cook lunch and dinner very well, but I'll do the washing and chopping of vegetables and the washing of dishes.
Wu Chen served Wei Yuyan a bowl of pumpkin porridge and a peeled boiled egg.
"Then I can sleep in from now on."
Wei Yuyan didn't look up, enjoying her sweet pumpkin porridge, feeling quite pleased with herself.
This kind of life isn't bad, is it?
After the two finished breakfast, the others also started to get up.
"Sister, we're going to buy meat. We'll be right back. Breakfast is in the pot."
With my older sister at home, I don't have to worry about Xiaolei and Qianqian anymore, which is great.
"Okay, drive carefully."
The older sister led Yueyue downstairs.
At noon, the two tables were bustling with activity again.
The next morning, Wei Yuyan actually slept in late, thinking that it would be almost time to have breakfast before getting up.
The kitchen was still cold and deserted, which infuriated Wei Yuyan.
Upon arriving at Wu Chen's room, he didn't stand on ceremony and simply pushed him aside.
"Oh, you're still sleeping in here and saying you'd make breakfast, but you've left me hungry today."
Pushing open the door, I saw Wu Chen still lying in bed.
"sorry".
Wu Chen slowly opened his eyes, said "I'm sorry," and then closed them again.
At this moment, Wei Yuyan realized that something was wrong with him; it seemed that he was sick.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Wei Yuyan leaned closer, looked at his face, which seemed very red, and touched it with her hand.
"Ouch, it's so hot."
Unexpectedly, Wu Chen's face was very hot and red, indicating that he had a fever.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Hasn't brother gotten up yet?"
Xiao Lei also got up and saw his sister-in-law in his brother's room, so he came over to ask her what was wrong.
“Your older brother has a fever. Go quickly and call Dr. Qian to bring some fever medicine.”
Wei Yuyan was afraid that if his high fever continued, he might become mentally impaired, and then she would be doomed.
Not only do I have to take care of two younger children, but I also have to take care of a mentally challenged person. I really need to run away.
"good".
When Xiao Lei heard that his older brother had a fever, he ran out with his hair disheveled, not even bothering to tie it up.
Wei Yuyan wasn't idle either. First, she cooked sweet potato porridge. Even though he was sick, the others still needed to eat.
After putting the rice in the pot, I added cold water, found his towel, and started to cool him down physically.
Unbutton your clothes and wipe your chest, back, and armpits as well.
"What are you doing?"
Wu Chen felt someone taking off his clothes, opened his eyes, and grabbed Wei Yuyan's hand.
"I'm trying to cool you down because you have a fever. Otherwise, what do you think I'd want to do?"
Wei Yuyan was annoyed. Did he think she was after his good looks?
"Feel sorry…".
Wu Chen swallowed, his lips were dry from the fever.
Wei Yuyan wiped Wu Chen twice, then poured him some cool boiled water to drink.
"Dr. Qian has arrived."
Xiao Lei, with disheveled hair, arrived with Doctor Qian.
"Let me take a look."
Dr. Qian slowly put down his medicine box, then sat down by the bed and began to take Wu Chen's pulse.
"How is he? Is my older brother alright?"
Xiao Lei stood nervously to the side, watching intently.
"It's nothing serious, just a relapse of an old ailment that caused the fever. Take some medicine and you'll be fine tomorrow."
Dr. Qian put his hand down and said to Wei Yuyan.
"Do you have this medicine here?"
Wei Yuyan was worried that he might not have all the necessary medicines.
"I have some here, but I didn't bring it with me. Xiao Lei will have to come with me to get the medicine."
Dr. Qian picked up his medicine box and prepared to carry it on his back.
"How much for both?"
Wei Yuyan picked up the money bag, paid the money first, and then let Xiao Lei go over.
"What's wrong? Is someone sick?"
At this moment, the older sister came down with Yueyue.
"Wu Chen has a slight fever, but otherwise he's fine."
After explaining, Wei Yuyan quickly went to start a fire, otherwise the porridge would burn.
"Why would he suddenly have a fever? Did he catch a cold? It's been cold lately, let him cover himself with a new blanket."
Wei Yuhan knew that the three rooms above all had new quilts, but the bed below did not. Of course, new quilts would be warmer.
"I don't think so. The blanket on his bed isn't new, but it's not old either. It was made two years ago."
It's a quilt made for the wedding, and it's actually very warm when you cover yourself with it.
"I'll cook it, you go wash up."
Wei Yuhan noticed that her younger sister's hair was also messy, so she probably hadn't washed up yet.
"Um".
Wei Yuyan got up, scooped up some hot water, and began to wash up.
A short while later, Xiao Lei returned with the medicine.
"Xiao Lei, we'll decoct the medicine later. You should wash up and have breakfast first."
Wei Yuyan's sweet potato porridge is ready, there's no rush to take her medicine.
"good".
Xiao Lei nodded and obediently did as instructed.
"Big brother, are you alright?"
After Qianqian finished eating, she stayed close to Wu Chen, her eyes brimming with worry.
