Chapter 118 A scene on the sea
Aunt Jiang was startled. At first she thought something had happened to Ye Mingzhu. But when she heard the question about her recovery, she glared at Jiang Hongyu, calling him a troublesome child.
She put her hand on Ye Mingzhu's wrist and began to take her pulse. Her expression was calm at first, but after a while, a serious look appeared on her face.
She changed her hand to take the pulse, and asked Ye Mingzhu to stick out her tongue. She looked at her tongue coating, her eyes full of confusion.
Ye Mingzhu looked up and exchanged glances with Jiang Hongyu, both feeling a little heavy in their hearts.
Ye Mingzhu remembered that when Aunt Jiang diagnosed her with a cold, she had the same expression. Could there be something wrong with her condition again? But she clearly felt that she had gotten much better recently!
"Mom, I took Mingzhu's pulse and I think her illness has improved a lot." Jiang Hongyu couldn't help but say when he saw Aunt Jiang remained silent.
"Yes, Mingzhu's pulse has indeed improved a lot." Aunt Jiang put away the pulse pillow, her face full of confusion. "It's just that it's been so short, Mingzhu's pulse has improved too quickly."
"Mingzhu, what have you been eating recently?"
Ye Mingzhu guessed that it was because of the space, but it was a secret and could not be told. She pretended to think about it and then shook her head: "I always eat with my family, and we all eat the same thing."
That's right. Ever since Ye Mingzhu got married, they have been eating together.
Aunt Jiang couldn't understand this, and Jiang Hongyu was relieved.
"No matter what the reason is, as long as Mingzhu is okay."
"Maybe Mingzhu's body absorbs the medicine better. I'll write a new prescription. Hongyu can buy some herbs when he goes to town tomorrow. Mingzhu will recover quickly with her recovery speed."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces were filled with relaxed smiles.
"What good news is this?" Fang's voice came from outside.
"Third Aunt." Ye Mingzhu stood up from her chair, and the others asked Fang to sit down.
"You just sat for a while and then left. I was a little worried, so I came to check on you." The concern on Fang's face didn't seem fake, and Ye Mingzhu felt a little warmer in her heart.
"Aunt San, I'm fine. Mother just took my pulse and I'm in good health."
Fang's eyes lit up: "Is it Mingzhu?"
Aunt Jiang shook her head: "Mingzhu's body has recovered well."
A flash of disappointment passed across Fang's face. "It doesn't matter as long as you're healthy."
Fang came here in a hurry because she thought Ye Mingzhu was pregnant.
Although she knew that Ye Mingzhu had a cold and it was impossible for her to get pregnant so soon, what if she did?
There are many people in the village who often go to sea and get pregnant quickly after getting married. In addition, Lu Jingya was revealed to be pregnant right after getting married. Although everyone laughed at her behind her back, which young wife would not envy her for getting pregnant so quickly?
"It's okay, Mingzhu, you're still young, and your health is the most important thing."
Fang cheered up and said that in her mind, only with children can they be a family.
Aunt Jiang had heard some rumors in the past few days. She held Ye Mingzhu's hand with approval in her eyes.
"It's not good for a girl's health to have a baby right after she reaches marriage. Mingzhu is still young, so it would be better to wait a few years to have a child."
Fang also smiled and praised Aunt Jiang for her good work as a mother-in-law.
Ye Mingzhu and Jiang Hongyu felt a little awkward as they watched the two of them talking back and forth.
"Hongyu, didn't you say you were going to deliver something? Go ahead, I want to talk to your Third Aunt." Aunt Jiang noticed that the two were feeling uncomfortable.
Fang also said that she was fine and asked the two to go about their business.
Ye Mingzhu and Jiang Hongyu then walked out.
Jiang Hongyu went to pick up some more things. Ye Mingzhu took a look and found that there were not only snacks but also dry food made by Aunt Mo for them.
A flash of understanding flashed through her mind, these things should be given to Uncle Yan.
Jiang Hongyu avoided Ye Mingzhu's gaze and looked towards the door: "I'm going to town tomorrow, I have to tell Uncle Yan."
Ye Mingzhu smiled and said she understood.
Uncle Yan's house was in a remote area with few houses around, so they had to take a detour before reaching their destination.
This was Ye Mingzhu's first time here. Uncle Yan's cottage contrasted beautifully with the surrounding dead grass. If no one told her, she would have no idea that the house was inhabited.
"Is this house going to collapse?" Uncle Yan's hut was not short, after all, Uncle Yan was tall, but the whole hut had only two rooms, and some of the thatch on it was blown away by the wind.
The two cabins gave off a shaky feel, making people worry that they would collapse at any time.
Jiang Hongyu shook his head calmly: "Uncle Yan reinforces it every year, it's okay."
After he finished speaking, he naturally went into the hut. Ye Mingzhu stood at the door and looked inside. She saw a stove in the outer room, some firewood, and some bowls and plates in a cabinet.
There is a door between the outer room and the inner room. Through the gap in the door, you can seem to see the simple furniture inside.
The whole house was unexpectedly clean, in stark contrast to the outside.
"Let's go. Uncle Yan is not here. I put my things down." Jiang Hongyu came out of the house quickly.
Ye Mingzhu withdrew her gaze and nodded.
"When Uncle Yan first came, he was quite generous and gave a silver bead to a village child. Later, people kept coming to visit, so Uncle Yan stopped repairing the house."
Jiang Hongyu explained: "Later, the villagers saw that Uncle Yan was poorly dressed and his house was shabby, so they stopped coming."
Ye Mingzhu recalled that the original owner had no memory of this. She was still young at that time and was protected by her parents. She rarely came to such a remote place.
The two waited outside the house for a while, but Uncle Yan didn't show up. Ye Mingzhu looked at the sea level not far away and slowly walked towards that direction.
Jiang Hongyu was afraid that something might happen to her, so he followed her.
"I didn't expect that someone would go fishing so early? They are so hardworking." Jiang Hongyu pointed to the small boat on the sea.
There was only a small boat on the calm sea. Two people were throwing something into the sea, and then the boat quickly sailed away from the sea.
Ye Mingzhu frowned: "They are not going fishing, it seems that they are throwing things into the sea."
The two looked at each other in bewilderment. What was being thrown into such a remote sea? Judging by the size of it, it couldn't be garbage, could it?
Although it was far away, I could still see that it was a long object.
Ye Mingzhu's expression changed. "Could they be throwing people? I'll go talk to the village chief."
"Don't go." Jiang Hongyu held her back. "We're not sure what they threw. If they have bad intentions, it might cause trouble for the village."
Ye Mingzhu doesn't like trouble, but she can't bear to watch the murder happen.
"Go to my third uncle's house and drive the boat over, then tell him I want to go out to sea." Ye Mingzhu pushed Jiang Hongyu and ran quickly into the sea.
Jiang Hongyu failed to catch her. Seeing that Ye Mingzhu had taken off her coat and swam into the sea, he had no choice but to frown and go to Uncle Ye's house to borrow a boat.
Ye Mingzhu was very fast and reached the bottom of the sea in just a few breaths.
