Chapter 228: Cowshed Riot



On days when he doesn’t have to work, Xu Zhiyi sleeps until he wakes up naturally.

Originally, she wanted Shen Zhaodi to sleep with her last night, but she felt a little embarrassed and was afraid of bothering her.

Before Xu Sheng came to live here, Xu Zhiyi asked Carpenter Tan to make a single bed for him, which was the bed that Shen Zhaodi slept on.

Xu Zhiyi had prepared the quilt a long time ago, so it would be useful if Mr. Xu came again.

Shen Zhaodi slept soundly and looked full of energy.

Xu Zhiyi feels really comfortable here. There is an indescribable faint fragrance in the wooden house, just like the scent of medicine on Xu Zhiyi's body.

It smells so comfortable and makes you fall asleep sweetly.

Shen Zhaodi was very familiar with Xu Zhiyi's kitchen and even made breakfast.

She was originally embarrassed to touch the owner's things. Xu Zhiyi had reminded her of this before going to bed last night. Xu Zhiyi knew that she might go to bed late.

Chen Zhaodi felt embarrassed and left as soon as she woke up, so she cooked pumpkin porridge for Wei on the stove.

There was a note left for her on the table.

Xu Zhiyi drank the sweet pumpkin porridge slowly and leisurely, adding a plate of pickles, feeling very comfortable.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, if they were at Xu's house, they would definitely be woken up very early, because Jiang's mother would not let her children sleep in.

After arriving in Xiangyang Village, she felt much more at ease without Jiang's mother nagging her.

Xu Zhiyi looked at his watch and found that it was not too late, around eight o'clock.

After finishing the meal, Xu Zhiyi went to pay New Year’s greetings to Grandma Dong.

Xu Zhiyi went to the Pei family, "Grandma Dong, Happy New Year! Wishing you prosperity! Wishing you prosperity!"

Grandma Dong smiled and said, "Happy New Year, Zhiyi~" and took out a red envelope from her pocket.

"I still have a red envelope, thank you Grandma Dong." Xu Zhiyi smiled, and the dimple on her cheek was faintly visible.

"Of course I have, as a child."

Pei Yan came over from the backyard, and Xu Zhiyi waved the red envelope at Pei Yan.

"I have one too." Pei Yan had just finished speaking.

Fang Hai's voice came from outside the door.

"Grandma Dong, I'm here to wish you a happy new year."

Fang Yingzi followed closely behind Fang Hai.

They both wished Grandma Dong a happy new year.

Grandma Dong gave each of the siblings a red envelope. After thanking them, the two siblings were happy to receive the red envelopes.

The Fang siblings did not visit their own relatives, but they had an uncle with whom they rarely interacted.

When Fang Hai and his sister were young, the village chief suggested that Uncle Fang help take care of them for two years. Now that Fang Hai has grown up, he is able to be filial to his uncle.

But Uncle Fang’s wife was unwilling to feed two freeloaders and refused to agree.

Uncle Fang didn't take the brother and sister home, but he would occasionally send them some food secretly.

Fang Hai and his sister went to pay New Year's greetings to their uncle early in the morning. They were very polite. No matter what, Fang Hai was still grateful to his uncle.

Any more closeness is gone.

Compared to Uncle Fang's side, the Pei family is much closer.

Grandma Dong likes the little ones around her. They are all pitiful, well-behaved, sensible and capable.

"Sister Zhiyi, what are you doing today? How about we play cards together?" Fang Hai just got familiar with the rules last night and kept losing. The game was over before he even started.

I'm really itching to do it.

"Let's go later. I have to go out." Xu Zhiyi said.

"OK."

Xu Zhiyi and Pei Yan went out together.

Xu Zhiyi hasn't wished his master a happy new year yet. As Chu Jueming's little apprentice, he is right next to them and has to wish his master and his mistress a happy new year.

Pei Yan went with her.

Unexpectedly, before I even reached the cowshed, I discovered there were people there, making a lot of noise.

It was Fu Huaijin who had come to the cowshed, carrying the child. Amidst the clamor of voices, the sound of a child crying was mingled with the noise.

Xu Zhiyi was afraid that something was wrong, so he looked at Pei Yan and quickened his pace.

As I got closer, I saw that not only Fu Huaijin was there, but also Cui Leling, Xi Ruxue, and Meng Weize.

Song Lan stood next to Fu Huaijin, the expression on her face didn't look anxious, but rather inexplicable and unpredictable.

"Doctor Chu, my child has been crying. Can you please take a look at what's going on?" Fu Huaijin was anxious.

Chu Jueming quickly took the child and asked, "How long have you been crying?"

Chu Jueming's eyes flashed, "It's the middle of the night!"

"The child's forehead is very hot, he has a fever. This is ridiculous! The child has had a fever for most of the night, what have the parents been doing?" Chu Jueming was angry, blowing his nose and glaring.

Xu Zhiyi quickly observed everyone's reactions.

Cui Leling crossed her arms across her chest, looking as if she was enjoying the show.

Xi Ruxue looked at Chu Jueming worriedly, feeling sorry for such a young child suffering.

Meng Weize put one hand in his pocket and looked a little impatient.

"Hurry up, take the child to the clinic." Chu Jueming asked Fu Huaijin to hold the child.

The medicine box and needles are all in the clinic, so you have to act quickly.

"Okay!" Fu Huaijin hurriedly carried the child over.

Although Chu Jueming looked older, his movements were not slow at all.

Even though he saw Xu Zhiyi and Pei Yan, Chu Jueming nodded and said nothing.

Cui Leling and others followed him to the clinic like little followers.

Cui Leling snorted coldly when she passed by Xu Zhiyi.

When Pei Yan saw the new educated youth's attitude towards Xu Zhiyi, he knew that there must be a conflict between them.

"Zhi Yi? What's going on with that person?" Pei Yan asked.

"Maybe her brain is not working well. Last time she asked for directions, I didn't give her directions. When she saw me, her eyes weren't eyes and her nose wasn't a nose," said Xu Zhiyi.

"Um."

"Ayan, let's go and take a look. In case the master needs help, we can run errands for him." Xu Zhiyi said.

"good."

Xu Zhiyi and the other person were not slow in their movements. When they arrived, they actually heard Fu Huaijin arguing with Song Lan.

Fight? They have a close relationship, how could they fight?

After entering the clinic, the first thing we saw was a group of three people watching a show.

No one tried to dissuade the two.

One had a forbearing look on his face, the other was crying.

"Lanlan, I'm very worried about the child's illness. I don't mean to blame you. You said that if you had discovered it earlier, the child wouldn't have had a fever for so long. You just heard it. If the fever lasted longer, the child might very likely become a fool!" Fu Huaijin said righteously.

Song Lan felt wronged and wanted to cry, "Brother Huaijin, I really didn't mean it. How could I not feel sorry for my child? I was too tired these days and didn't notice that something was wrong with the child."

Cui Leling exaggerated, "The child is always by your side. How could you not know whether he is sick? Don't you pretend?"

Song Lan secretly resented, "Cui Zhiqing, why are you trying to sow discord between us? How can I not feel sorry for the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to? Are you saying this to make Brother Huaijin blame me? What are you up to?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Cui Leling and Xi Ruxue's expressions changed.

No matter how dumb Cui Leling was, she knew that she couldn't say this casually.

This peasant woman is throwing dirty water on her!

"Nonsense! You are just a peasant woman and you are not worthy of Brother Fu at all." Cui Leling spoke without thinking and said everything that was on her mind.
