Chapter 25: People's Words Are Fearful
Old Lady Liang wiped the dust off her face with her thumb and said with a smile, "Look at you, be careful! I'll do the fire-making thing, so don't get involved!"
"Grandma, it's okay. I just blew too much air accidentally. It doesn't hurt, just some dust fell." Liang Huanxue washed her face and came back to continue lighting the fire.
Just as lunch was ready, people working in the fields came back one after another.
Liang Jiajiang drank a bellyful of cold water, sat down and started to eat the steamed buns with his hands, but was slapped by Old Lady Liang, "Take the chopsticks!"
He reluctantly went to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks, and also brought Liang Huanxue to sit beside him.
"Hey, be careful!" Old Mrs. Liang looked at him holding the bowl and chopsticks in one hand and Liang Huanxue in the other. She was afraid that he would drop the bowl and hurt Liang Huanxue.
But he was very steady. Not only was the bowl fine, but even the chopsticks on it did not fall down.
"Mom, our family is stable, don't worry. I think he's suitable for practicing acrobatics. Maybe he can make a lot of money." Liu Chunhua couldn't stand the sons of other families being more capable than her son.
Liang Wenxuan's becoming the shopkeeper made her feel very unbalanced, so she couldn't help but say something sarcastic about Liang Jiajiang to make herself feel better.
Wang Xifen was unhappy when she heard this. "You don't need to tell me what my son should do. Just take care of yourself."
Liu Chunhua didn't intend to stop talking, and continued: "Second sister-in-law, look at you, isn't what I said wrong? If you are good at juggling, you can earn a lot of money in three to five days!"
"Second aunt, why don't you go and make so much money from playing tricks? I think you have a pretty good mouth, you can use it to hold the bench and make a lot of money!" Liang Jiajiang didn't like this second aunt in the first place, and when she made fun of him, he naturally didn't get polite.
Liu Chunhua immediately dropped her chopsticks and said, "How...how can you talk like that?"
"You asked for it yourself." Liang Yuanshan glanced at her sideways, "Why don't you pick up your chopsticks!"
Liu Chunhua gritted her teeth, picked up the chopsticks and said nothing more.
However, she bore a grudge against Liang Jiajiang in her heart and was thinking about when to teach him a lesson.
After dinner, the workers rested for a while and then went back to the fields.
Liu Chunhua was still lazy and did not go with them.
This gave Liang Huanxue a chance to get her shoes back.
She sneaked into the room and looked around, but found no trace of the shoes.
So he went to Liu Chunhua again, wanting to see if she was hiding beside the bed.
As soon as he got closer, Liu Chunhua turned over.
She stroked her forehead, hummed twice, and started snoring again.
Liang Huanxue searched around the bed but still couldn't find her shoes.
Where can Liu Chunhua hide her shoes?
It's impossible that he still has it on him?
Liang Huanxue looked into her arms and found that the shoes were really hidden on her body.
Liu Chunhua is really a careless person. She even sleeps with a shoe in her arms.
Liang Huanxue stretched out her hand and tried to take the shoes out of her arms.
But Liu Chunhua seemed to have sensed something and not only did she not let go, she held the shoes even tighter.
Liang Huanxue didn't dare to use too much force, for fear that Liu Chunhua would wake up.
She suddenly remembered that there was a kind of flower in the space, whose pollen could make people temporarily faint, so she pulled a flower out of the space and placed it in front of Liu Chunhua.
While snoring, Liu Chunhua took a deep breath, inhaling all the pollen, then sneezed heavily and opened her eyes.
"You..." When she sneezed, her eyes were filled with tears, so her vision was blurry and she couldn't see clearly who was in front of her.
Liang Huanxue quickly lay on the ground, because there was a brick bed in the room and there was no place to hide under the bed.
So Liang Huanxue could only pray in her heart that she would pass out quickly and not see her.
Liu Chunhua leaned over, trying to get a clear look at the person, but her head suddenly felt dizzy and she fell back onto the bed with a thud, unconscious.
Liang Huanxue did not get up immediately. After making sure that the person on the bed was motionless, she stood up slowly.
She patted Liu Chunhua gently, and seeing that she did not wake up, she boldly pulled the shoes out of her arms.
As a result, as soon as I went out, I met Mrs. Liang.
"How did you get out of this room? What are you holding in your hand?" Old Mrs. Liang was wondering how she got out of Liang Yuanshan's room when she saw what she was holding in her hand.
After seeing clearly that it was a shoe, Mrs. Liang looked even more puzzled, "Why did you steal your aunt's shoes?"
"Grandma, look carefully, where did my aunt get such shoes?" Liang Huanxue handed the shoes to Grandma Liang.
Mrs. Liang knocked on the shoes carefully and found that the workmanship and embroidery were indeed not from her family. "Whose shoes are these and where did they come from?"
Liang Huanxue thought about it and told her about Fu Shushu.
"What a bastard!" Mrs. Liang cursed before she even finished listening. "How could she be so heartless?"
"That's why I took the shoes back and gave them to Sister Fu Shushu so that she can feel at ease. I was afraid that without the shoes, she would gossip around in the village and make Sister Fu Shushu feel uneasy."
Liang Huanxue knew that what people said could be scary.
If Liu Chunhua spread rumors everywhere, even if the things never happened, people would take them seriously.
"Xue'er, return these shoes to Fu Shushu, and tell her that I have chosen her as my granddaughter-in-law, so she doesn't have to worry." Old Mrs. Liang liked Fu Shushu very much, and had wanted her to be her granddaughter-in-law for a long time.
But Liang Weijiang had not responded because of what happened last time, so she could only worry.
"Grandma, I'm here to find Sister Fu Shushu and tell her what you said. She will definitely be very happy." Liang Huanxue took the shoes and quickly arrived at the door of Fu Shushu's house.
"Xue'er, why are you here?"
"I have done what I promised you before."
"Thank you so much."
"Are you boiling the medicine?"
"right."
Her father had just been able to walk, but he was already thinking about going out.
As soon as Liang Huanxue entered, she heard Master Jia groaning non-stop, and it seemed that he was seriously injured.
"My dad has been stuck in the house for so long and wants to go out for a walk, but...how can he do that in this state? I advised him to take it slow, but he got impatient with me." Fu Shushu was afraid that one day when she went out, her dad would make trouble at home again.
"How about asking someone to make a wheelchair for you?" Liang Huanxue could understand Fu Shushu's father's feelings.
After finally being able to stand up, of course I wanted to go out for a walk.
But his health would not improve for a while, so going out for a walk was a luxury.
However, you can take a stroll in a wheelchair.
"Wheelchair? What is that?" Fu Shushu had never heard of a wheelchair.
