Chapter 61 Standing by the stream, not moving at all

Although Xingxing woke up once at night, Mrs. Wei was always worried that she would get a fever due to shock. Fortunately, after Xingxing woke up at night, she replied a few words in a daze and fell asleep again. There was no sign of fever until she fell asleep, so Mrs. Wei was relieved.

However, Grandma Wei still woke up three or four times during the night to touch her granddaughter who was sleeping soundly beside her and to check if her body temperature was still normal.

In the morning, Xingxing became a lively little girl again.

Several of her brothers came to see her, and seeing that she was sitting well on the kang, eating egg custard in small bites, they felt relieved and went to school together.

Seeing that Xingxing was almost recovered, Grandma Wei smiled and said, "My dear grandson, you can go with grandma to thank the two aunts who saved you."

Xing Xing nodded her head: "Grandma, do you know how Yaya is doing?"

She was a little worried.

Mrs. Wei touched Xingxing's little head and said, "When we return from the homes of the two aunts who saved you, we will take you to see Yamei'er."

Xing Xing happily responded: "Okay! I'll listen to Grandma!"

Mrs. Wei's eyes were full of kindness.

One of the two women who saved Xingxing and Yamei'er was an aunt from the south of the village. When she saw that Grandma Wei had taken such a generous gift and brought her granddaughter to thank her in such a serious manner, she was surprised and delighted. She repeatedly waved her hands to refuse: "If a child falls into the water, who would not save it if they see it..."

Mrs. Wei thanked her again and again and offered more gifts. Only then did the lady accept the bamboo basket covered with red cloth with some embarrassment.

After Mrs. Wei left, her naughty son rushed over and lifted the red cloth, shouting, "Mom! There are so many things! There is meat, fish, and eggs!"

Everyone in this aunt's family praised her, saying that the Yu family was so grateful and repaying their gratitude. They were a really good family to get along with!

The other aunt who saved the man was Zhou Wu’s mother.

She had always had a good relationship with Mrs. Wei, and they often chatted under the elm tree in their spare time.

"Auntie Wei, look how polite you are! Xingxing has to call me auntie, and I just saved her. Why are you so formal?" Zhou Wu Niang pushed the bamboo basket in Auntie Wei's hand.

Mrs. Wei had a good relationship with her and said with a smile, "Well, since you saved Xingxing, it is only right that I should give you the gift. Just accept it."

Having said that, Mrs. Wei directly handed the bamboo basket to Zhou Wu's mother and placed it on the table beside her, with a look that showed that she would not accept the offer.

Zhou Wu Niang said, "Ouch!" and said, "Okay, I'll take it."

Zhou Wu Niang stretched out her hand and beckoned Xing Xing to her side, looking her over and over: "…Our Xing Xing is indeed blessed with good fortune, nothing will happen to her!"

Xing Xing raised her little face and said sweetly, "I have to thank Auntie for saving me!"

These words made Zhou Wu's mother feel very comforted.

She and Mrs. Wei laughed and said, "No wonder they say that ladies are caring... Look at me, I only have one boy, and he gets up early and goes to school late every day..."

At this point, Zhou Wuniang remembered that Wei Pozi's family had sent four boys to school. She smacked her lips and said, "Come to think of it, can your family afford the school expenses for four boys?"

Mrs. Wei just said, "Let the brothers study first. Look at your son Qian'an, he is very good at studying and has a promising future... It can be seen that there is no harm in reading more books."

Mrs. Wei patted Zhou Wuniang's hand and said, "You were farsighted back then. You gritted your teeth and supported Qian'an's education."

These words really touched Zhou Wu's mother's heart!

She just felt closer to Mrs. Wei and tightly grasped her hand: "Mrs. Wei, you still understand me!"

Zhou Wu Niang said this, hesitated again, and moved closer to Mrs. Wei: "...Speaking of which, there is something I have been hiding in my heart, and I don't know whether I should say it out."

Mrs. Wei's heart skipped a beat: "What's going on, Wu Niang? Are you going to hide it from me?"

Zhou Wu Niang hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "Auntie, it's not that I'm hiding something from you... It's just that, didn't I hear Xiang's Yamei'er crying for help yesterday, and I hurried over with her? As a result, when I ran over, I saw Xingxing and Yamei'er playing in the creek, and the newly married daughter of the Xiang family, Mao, was standing by the creek, without making any movement at all!"

Mrs. Wei took a breath of cool air.

Xingxing was obviously frightened by the incident of falling into the water yesterday, so Mrs. Wei was reluctant to ask her about what happened at that time.

She had originally been thinking of coming over today to talk to Friday's mother and see what the situation was.

As a result, I heard these words!

On the one hand, Mrs. Wei felt her back crawling with fear, but on the other hand, she instinctively felt that the little girl brought by Mrs. Mao, who was less than ten years old, could not be so vicious and must have been frightened.

Zhou Wu Niang saw that Mrs. Wei was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She knew that the news she had heard was indeed a bit shocking. She coughed and lowered her voice: "...But I can't say for sure. Maybe Xing Xing and Ya Mei'er fell into the water too suddenly, and the little girl was frightened."

Mrs. Wei also nodded slowly, more willing to believe that this was the case.

Zhou Wu's mother chatted with Mrs. Wei for a while longer before Mrs. Wei took Xingxing and left, saying that she was going to Xiang's house to see Yamei.

Zhou Wu's mother warmly escorted Wei Po's daughter Xing Xing out of the house and said, "If your boys have any problems with their studies, just ask my Qian An."

Mrs. Wei smiled and responded, "Okay, I will!"

After leaving Zhou Wu Niang's house, the smile on Mrs. Wei's face faded a little.

She was still affected by Friday's mother's words.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Mrs. Wei decided to take Xingxing to see Yamei.

The two little guys get along very well. If Xiang Shan's new wife treats Ya Mei'er harshly, she should help poor Ya Mei'er even for Xing Xing's sake.

Mrs. Wei made a decision and took Xingxing to the Xiang family.

Yamei was not as lucky as Xingxing. She had a fever all night yesterday and just woke up this morning. She was still a little weak and was lying on the kang listlessly.

Xingxing looked at her little friend lying on the kang, looking listless, weak and pale, and tears came out of her eyes.

“Bud…”

Because his daughter was sick, Xiang Shan did not go out to work in the fields today, but stayed at home to take care of her.

Mrs. Mao was there too. Seeing Xingxing about to cry, she hurriedly said, "Oh, little girl, you shouldn't cry in front of a patient. It's unlucky."

This was not pleasant to hear, and Mrs. Wei was not very happy about it.

She thought, her granddaughter is praised by everyone, she is well-behaved and lucky!

But when it comes to your mouth, it becomes something unlucky, ha!

Xing Xing was very obedient. She was afraid that if she cried, Ya Meier would be upset, so she quickly wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "I won't cry!"

Mao looked at Xiang Shan and said to Xing Xing, "Speaking of which, when you and Ya Ya go out to play in the future, don't go near the water. My daughter Afu cried all night yesterday, and I feel guilty for not being able to stop you."

Mrs. Wei sneered in her heart, this Mao was really a difficult person to deal with.

This is to put all the problems on Xingxing and Yamei!
