Grandma Mo did bring a bowl of soup into the house; it was for Qin Shi to drink.
Because she didn't know when Su Nanxi would return, she wasn't in the mood to cook. But she couldn't let her eldest daughter-in-law go hungry, so she cooked a bowl of egg drop soup, ladled out a bowl of vegetables, and served it to Qin Shi.
Old Mrs. Mo had given birth herself and knew that pregnant women get hungry easily and feel very uncomfortable when they are hungry. So, no one was in a hurry, except for her eldest daughter-in-law!
Those are ordinary people; they wouldn't mind going hungry for a day. But we can't let her eldest daughter-in-law and the baby in her belly go hungry!
She didn't deliberately hide while cooking; those people were all far from the kitchen, so she just brought the food over to Qin Shi as soon as she finished.
I didn't expect that someone would still see it. So what if she saw it? Let her say whatever she wants!
"Hmm! My eldest daughter-in-law isn't feeling well, so I specially made her some medicinal soup. The doctor said that the medicine is only effective if an egg is added; it's a special soup for women. Would you like some too?"
Grandma Mo spoke half-truthfully, making Old Man Zhou so embarrassed that he turned his face away.
"No, I was just asking casually!"
Zhou Laosan assumed it was a drink for women to cure their illness and didn't dare to say anything more.
That's so embarrassing!
How could a grown man like him want to drink a woman's medicinal soup? If word got out, wouldn't he be incredibly ashamed?
Zhou Laosan didn't know what kind of decoction was for women, but he knew that such things existed. His wife had brewed decoction for her before, saying it was to nourish the body. It was very bitter and smelly, and it also made her feel a bit weak. She would need to eat something to replenish her body afterward!
So when he heard that eggs were to be added, he didn't doubt it, since eggs are very nutritious!
That makes perfect sense!
It's perfectly reasonable to replenish your body after taking the herbal medicine!
Seeing that Zhou Laosan remained silent, Old Lady Mo snorted inwardly. He was so quick to notice good food, but so blind when he needed help!
Seeing his grandson under the table next to him, he didn't even bother to lend a hand!
It's not like I can't move!
The table isn't heavy, and nobody wants to lift it. If someone were to run over it and get seriously injured, they'd have nowhere to turn for help!
She had so many granddaughters before finally getting this grandson, and she doesn't even know how to take good care of him!
well!
It's none of our business; it's someone else's problem, and they should be the ones worrying about it!
They all have their own families now, so who can control whom?
When Zhou Laosan looked down to pick up some food, he found that there was no food left!
Even the vegetable juice was poured out!
What's going on? Why didn't you leave him some?
If he's finished eating, what will he eat?
Then I thought, if we don't have any left, then we'll just fry some more. Even if he doesn't have meat to eat this time, he still wants to eat a few eggs!
But Grandma Mo calmly refused him, "Those eggs are limited in number! How many we eat can only be taken for cooking with everyone's consent! If anyone objects, then they can't be touched. More importantly, I don't have the key to lock the eggs! I can't cook them!"
Zhou Laosan was devastated. He wanted to eat something to cleanse his stomach, but why was it so difficult?
Now that there are no vegetables left, is he going to eat plain rice?
Grandma Mo snorted inwardly, thinking, "They're so ungrateful! This white rice is something many families can't even afford!"
She's picking things out here now, but when she gets back, she'll find she won't even be able to afford mixed grain rice!
Having a bowl of white rice to eat is already a blessing; we should be happy!
While Zhou Laosan was still fuming and thinking about what to eat, Su Nanxi returned with the group.
The Mo couple rushed out, their eyes fixed on Su Nanxi. Seeing that Su Nanxi was alright, they turned their attention to Mo Qinghe. Seeing that both of them were unharmed, they finally looked at Xiao Wu!
Xiao Wu didn't care about the order; it didn't matter to him. He wouldn't care about such trivial matters!
But some people were bothered. The four women on the donkey cart were very unhappy. Why didn't anyone come to check on them and ask if they were alright?
What kind of hospitality is this?
They were holding the child and didn't even bother to help, let alone check on the child's condition!
That's absolutely outrageous!
When the elderly couple heard their sarcastic remarks, they realized there were other people on the bus, so they came over and asked a few simple questions to show their concern!
However, the old couple was quite puzzled. Why didn't these people get off? The donkey cart wasn't high; they could jump off with a single leap. Even their youngest grandson, Mo Dongcheng, could jump off without needing anyone to help him!
Even an adult can reach the ground with just a step, so the two children are not small either; they can also reach the ground if put down!
I really don't understand!
Su Nanxi said to Old Lady Mo, "Mother, the matter has been resolved. The two children are fine. We went to see the most famous doctor in town, and we even saw three doctors. They all said they were alright! They caused trouble, and the police intervened. We did what we were supposed to do and have already given them compensation in public, two hundred coins for each child! This matter is over and we don't need to mention it again."
"Mother, they're going back. You're more familiar with the situation, so you should handle it. Just return the gifts they need to give! Follow the principle of reciprocity! Don't overthink it, don't worry about saving face!"
When Grandma Mo heard that these people were still causing trouble in town, she also got angry. No wonder Su Su was so angry!
How shameless of you!
Even the police were alerted, quite impressive!
It won't be until tomorrow; the news will probably have spread throughout the entire town. Bad news travels fast!
They're shameless enough to drag the Mo family into this mess!
The child was perfectly fine, but they insisted on seeing so many doctors, including famous ones!
The consultation fees charged by those doctors are beyond the reach of ordinary people!
Do they really think the Mo family's money grows on trees?
snort!
Pack your things and get out of here immediately!
Su Su is right, how to give a gift depends on what the person is giving!
She had been thinking of bringing them lots of things back with her when they went back, like cloth, chickens, ducks, and everything else she could think of. But now it seems she doesn't need to!
They don't need it!
They don't deserve it!
Since you're so capable, go buy it yourself!
Hearing Su Nanxi say this while still on the donkey cart, Yang asked in confusion, "We haven't eaten yet, we're all hungry, why are we going back already! We can go back after we've eaten!"
Mrs. Zhong chimed in, "That's right! The child is still hungry. He'll need to eat more meat to walk better! Let's come down first, you can go and put the dishes on the table."
The Zhou family, who had just been eating vegetables with their rice, suddenly brightened up and felt happy. Now that everyone was back, they could finally cook some meat!
Su Nanxi ignored these people and said to Old Lady Mo, "Mother, go ahead. It doesn't need to be done much. Once it's done, take it out. We'll see the guests out in a bit."
Grandma Mo nodded after hearing this, ignored the people, and walked straight inside.
Madam Yang was furious. "What kind of hospitality is this? Where is your manners? We haven't even eaten yet and you're already kicking us out!"
"Yeah! What does it have to do with me that you haven't eaten?"
