Chapter 46: People can sleep for decades after death

The two of them were just discussing coming back together, and with Pan Wenlan by their side, others couldn't make any rumors.

Lin Xiuzhi touched Chu Sangning's hand and said distressedly, "Oh, you are so wronged now. Auntie will kill a chicken for you to nourish your body."

Chu Sangning waved his hands hastily. No one was rich now. The Jiang family only had four chickens, which were still being kept for laying eggs. It would not be a good idea to kill them for his own health.

"Auntie, no need. I'm fine. I feel healthy and everything I eat tastes delicious."

"Mom, I'm going to the kitchen to boil water and cook the chicken." Jiang Xingyan was a man of action. He walked towards the kitchen right after he said that. Chu Sangning didn't even call him to stop.

Seeing Chu Sangning's worried expression, Lin Xiuzhi smiled and said, "Of course not. You caught the chicken, so no one would say anything if I gave it to you. If Pan An hadn't been naughty and insisted on dragging you to catch a wild chicken, you wouldn't have fallen into the trap."

"Auntie, you can't say that. If it weren't for Pan An, I would have fallen into the trap and no one would have saved me."

Chu Sangning couldn't let Jiang Pan'an take the blame for him. They went there together, and he didn't see the road clearly and fell down. It was not Pan'an's fault.

Lin Xiuzhi and Jiang Xingyan went to the kitchen to kill a chicken, while Chu Sangning sat in the yard basking in the sun. It was just noon, the weather was just right, and people who were sunbathing felt warm.

Suddenly, a little head popped out from the door next to him. Jiang Panan poked his head out, and seeing Chu Sangning, he ran over excitedly.

"Sister, are you okay?"

"It's okay, everything is fine." Chu Sangning comforted Jiang Panan. He must be very scared when he fell and got injured, and it was not his fault.

"Sister, I'm sorry." Jiang Pan'an hesitated for a long time, stood in front of Chu Sangning, and apologized softly, "If I hadn't dragged you to catch rabbits, you wouldn't have fallen in."

"I wanted to catch rabbits too. It's not your fault."

When the others came back from work, Lin Xiuzhi and Jiang Xingyan had already prepared the meal, and Pan Wenlan couldn't help much.

There was stewed chicken soup, fried chicken, and a dozen buns. Looking at the food on the table, Jiang's father picked up his chopsticks and said, "Let's celebrate Chu Zhiqing's discharge from the hospital today."

Chu Sangning felt embarrassed for a moment. She might be the first person who fell into a pit while catching prey and ended up in the hospital.

Lin Xiuzhi noticed Chu Sangning's strange look and glared at her old man. He was really bad at talking. He insisted on saying something she didn't like. She interrupted everyone and said, "Eat, hurry up and eat. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

After dinner, the captain's wife came over with a few eggs in her hands. "Chu Zhiqing, are you okay? Have you recovered?"

Chu Sangning thought she was coming to ask about her work situation, so she stood up and replied, "Okay, I can start work this afternoon."

"No, you haven't recovered yet." Jiang Xingyan said after hearing this.

Chu Sangning said, "Okay, I know my own body. Cutting pig grass is not a very tiring job. I can do it."

Jiang Xingyan looked at the captain's wife with a serious expression: "Don't worry, Auntie, the pig grass collection won't be delayed." He could go and collect pig grass early and go home, so that he wouldn't delay things at home.

The team leader's wife was confused by their singing of the same tune. She came here just to take a look, not to go to work. The girl came from a faraway place to go to the countryside to build the motherland, and she hadn't been there for long when she injured her head again.

Jiang Zong was so worried that his hair was falling out at home that he sent his wife to check on the situation. If anything serious happened, people in the county would think that their Changxing Village captain was not doing a good job.

"No, no, Chu Zhiqing, just take a good rest. There's no rush to go back to work. After you take your leave, it's Zhao Zhiqing who's doing the work now. She's Yiping's wife, the one you came with."

After Chu Sangning was injured and hospitalized, no one was doing the job of cutting grass for pigs. The villagers thought the work points were too few, the children could not finish the work, and it was a waste of energy for the adults to do it. Just when Jiang Zong was about to draw lots to decide, Zhao Jiayun came to his door in a hurry.

He was called to go collect grass for pigs. Old Mrs. Luo who followed behind him couldn't stop him or persuade him, so she could only let Zhao Jiayun change his job.

"Okay, thank you for your concern, Auntie." Chu Sangning still had gauze wrapped around his head. He stood there weakly, his face pale, and he looked like he had suffered a lot.

After everyone left, did Chu Sangning realize that he was unemployed?

She was just thinking about it in her mind, but she didn't expect to say it out loud. Jiang Xingyan enlightened her after hearing it, "This is not considered unemployment, and health is the capital of revolution. Only when you are healthy can you do a good job."

"Okay, okay, Jiang Xingyan, you're so nagging." Chu Sangning tilted his head and looked at him with a smile, his words full of teasing.

"You have to listen to her nagging." Lin Xiuzhi and everyone else in the family went to work, leaving only the two of them at home.

Feeling sorry for her son's injury, Lin Xiuzhi refused to let Jiang Xingyan go down to help, so he had to tidy up the house and do some small things within his ability.

Chu Sangning started to feel sleepy after taking a packet of medicine after dinner, but she still forced herself to stay awake and talk to Jiang Xingyan in the yard. Jiang Xingyan was not good at speaking, so it was Chu Sangning who kept talking.

After a few minutes, there was no sound from Chu Sangning. Jiang Xingyan poked his head out of the kitchen worriedly and saw that the person had fallen asleep in a chair, curled up in a ball.

He quietly went back to the house, took out a coat and put it on Chu Sangning. Although the weather was warm, it was cold when sleeping. Covering herself more would prevent her from getting sick easily.

Then she continued cleaning the kitchen. The noise was so quiet that if it weren't for the dust, you would have thought there was no movement in the kitchen.

The Jiang family enjoyed a peaceful time, but the Luo family was in turmoil.

Ever since Zhao Jiayun and Luo Yiping got married, He Yueyang somehow started hanging out with Zhao Jiayun again, and would go to Luo's house every few days, which made old lady Luo unable to bear it any longer.

With only half an hour left before work, Luo Yiping held a sickle and Old Lady Luo carried a hoe. Looking at the tightly closed door, Old Lady Luo still cursed: "You really married a lazy woman."

She was lazy when working in the fields and could not finish one acre of land in the whole morning. She even asked her son to help her when she couldn't finish the work. Old Mrs. Luo didn't know how Zhao Jiayun had the nerve to say this.

Capable kids can do things more efficiently than she does.

I used to do some work, but now I do nothing at all. I don't know what's wrong with me that I have to switch to a job of cutting pig grass. The work points are so low.

"Yiping, you need to take good care of your wife. Look at what she is like now. She doesn't cook at home, doesn't do any housework, and just lies in bed all day long."

"You can't sleep at any time. When you die, your eyes will close and your legs will kick. No one will disturb you for decades."
