On the other hand, those young couples only eat three meals a day together, why should she go and join in? No way.
Zhu Qinghao tried to persuade her once, but seeing that she insisted, she didn't say anything more. However, she would occasionally pass some of the good stuff to Sheng Yi through the courtyard wall.
However, although Zhu Qinhao's three meals a day were taken care of, the fatigue in her body could not be relieved when she hadn't adapted. Even with the spiritual spring water, it was impossible to make her lively and energetic again.
So for the first few days, she had no appetite for the delicious food Sheng Yi made, and she would only eat a few bites after Sheng Yi coaxed and pleaded with her.
In just a few days, Zhu Qinghao visibly lost weight.
Because of her poor health as a child, Zhu Qinghao was already thin, and this further thinning made Sheng Yi feel sorry for her, so he tried even harder to feed her.
At the same time, he would find time in the morning and afternoon to help Zhu Qing with some chores, and only when it was almost time to cook would he go back to continue cooking.
With everyone in the village working together, Sheng Yi's actions naturally came to the attention of others.
Some offered their blessings with smiles, while others gritted their teeth and felt envious; still others whispered behind their backs that the two were immoral...
But neither Sheng Yi nor Zhu Qinghao cared about any of this.
After those few days, Zhu Qinghao and Si Tian gradually adapted to the autumn harvest, regained some vitality, ate well, and felt less uncomfortable all over.
Sheng Yi saw this and breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Zhu Qinghao had a good appetite, he thought about making up for the losses he had incurred before, so the meals he sent to the fields at noon became even more plentiful.
Every day, he would watch Zhu Qing finish her meal, then return the dishes and chopsticks to be washed, and then come over to help with the chores. Taking this opportunity, he would also bring Zhu Qing some extra food for her.
When the aunties in the same group saw him, they all praised Sheng Yi.
But it wasn't that no one had other ideas. For example, Huang Ying, in a corner unknown to others, had her eye on Sheng Yi.
During this autumn harvest, she was assigned to the next group, so she could easily see what Zhu Qinghao and the others were doing.
When she first saw Sheng Yi bringing food to Zhu Qinghao and helping with chores, she couldn't stand it; to be precise, she was jealous.
So a long time ago, she had said to Zhou Chunli in a sarcastic tone:
"How shameless! They're only engaged, not married yet. Who are they trying to impress with this act? I'd like to see how long he can keep this up!"
Zhou Chunli has always been Huang Ying's lackey. She had a past conflict with Zhu Qinghao and the others, so naturally she couldn't stand seeing Zhu Qinghao doing too well and joined in the sour grapes.
"Exactly! Zhu Qing, a perfectly good young lady, actually lets men come and go from her room so freely. Who knows if they've already... Ugh, how shameless!"
Looking at Sheng Yi's handsome face and his meticulous care and attention to Zhu Qinghao, Huang Ying was filled with hatred.
How could such a good man have fallen for Zhu Qinghao?!
It must be that slut Zhu Qinghao, with that foxy face, flaunting her charm and seducing him!
The more Huang Ying thought about it, the more convinced she became that this was indeed the truth.
No, she had to find a chance to expose Zhu Qinghao and let Dr. Jiang know what kind of slut she was. She didn't believe Dr. Jiang would be able to tolerate it then.
If they can't stand it, then the only option will be to break off the engagement, right?
Once the engagement is broken off, let's see how Zhu Qinghao will still be so smug in front of her!
Moreover, knowing Zhu Qinghao's true colors and announcing the engagement, Doctor Jiang will definitely be very sad, and then I can go and comfort her wholeheartedly.
Perhaps, she can also...
