87 Investigate the Profound Mysteries on Her
Only then did Old Madam Wang know that ever since Little Ah Yu came into possession of the special water, she had tried to let the entire family drink it.
Including the water vat at home, there was also water from Little Ah Yu inside.
Wang Chuangui, who looked unhealthy, and Old man Wang had already received additional care from Little Ah Yu.
Previously, Old Madam Wang thought that Little Ah Yu liked to serve water to the family. Now that she thought about it, the child probably took advantage of that time to change the water, right?
Old Madam Wang had a complicated expression. “Good child, you’re too considerate.”
Little Ah Yu tilted her head and revealed a very obedient smile. “Grandma, Ah Yu likes the people in the family. Ah Yu likes you. We have to be healthy!”
Meatball often said these words to Little Ah Yu.
Previously, although Little Ah Yu’s language skills and communication ability had returned to normal, there were some words that she did not understand. Meatball took the opportunity when Little Ah Yu went to the spatial pocket to farm to tell her stories and expand her vocabulary system.
However, when facing a brat who kept asking ‘why’, Meatball often felt very helpless.
“Ah Yu, don’t tell anyone about you and that elf in the future, including your mother. Don’t even tell Grandma after some special situations happen,” Old Madam Wang said to Little Ah Yu very seriously.
This puzzled Little Ah Yu. Why couldn’t she tell them? They were family.
Moreover, there were things that children did not understand. They definitely had to tell the adults.
Old Madam Wang saw the confusion in Little Ah Yu’s eyes, but now that she was telling the child about the complicated human nature, and the child could not understand it, she decided not to say anything.
“Just listen to Grandma. You’ll understand in the future.”
Little Ah Yu did not understand, but she nodded. “Ah Yu understands.”
Old Madam Wang composed herself and planned to visit her second son first.
She wanted to see if it was really as Ah Yu had said, and she had given her second son water, but her second son still had no reaction.
It either meant that the water could not treat illnesses or that her second son’s leg could not be saved.
“Ah Yu, Grandma likes the things you gave me today very much.” Old Madam Wang stroked Little Ah Yu’s head and planned to cook a delicious meal for her today.
She had only been adopted for a month, but she was already thinking about the Wang family. They could not let her down.
As for the child’s secret, she had to protect it at all costs.
She had to be an evil person again.
“Wang Wulang! You only know how to play around all day long. Why didn’t you bring your sister along? Come back quickly, or I’ll break your legs and let you lie down with your Second Uncle!”
When Wang Wulang, who was outside the courtyard, heard this, he hurriedly ran back and pulled Little Ah Yu away.
“I understand, Grandma. I’ll bring Sister Ah Yu to play. Don’t worry, we’ll be back on time for lunch!”
“Even if you forget yourself, you won’t forget to eat!” Old Madam Wang was very relieved about this.
Wang Wulang chuckled and did not answer. He just slipped away.
“Sister Ah Yu, let’s go catch some pheasants!”
He had heard just now that the children in the village had all gone to the mountains. They seemed to have discovered a pheasant nest. He had to go quickly lest he couldn’t make it in time.
He had specially waited outside, wanting to bring Ah Yu along.
On the other side, Old Madam Wang saw that there was no one else at home and walked into Wang Chuangui’s bedroom. At this moment, Wang Chuangui was struggling to sit up.
Unexpectedly, he met Old Madam Wang’s gaze.
Old Madam Wang :”...”
Wang Chuangui: “...”
Seeing that her second son could sit up on his own, what else did Old Madam Wang not understand?
“I think your wings have hardened. Now that your body has recovered, you’re still lying on the bed waiting for me to serve you, right?” Old Madam Wang walked over quickly and looked at Wang Chuangui with disappointment. “You can sit up on your own and still need me to serve you food every day. Do you think you’re very capable now? I thought that you were the smartest child in the family and could see the difficulties in the family. You’re much more sensible after all. I didn’t expect you to be so unmotivated!”
These words were a little heartbreaking. Even those with a little pride could not stand it, let alone Wang Chuangui.
Without thinking, he hurriedly said, “Mother, I was about to tell you. Two days ago, I felt some sensation in my legs. Last night, I vaguely felt that my hands were stronger. I just wanted to see if I could sit up-”
Old Madam Wang interrupted him. “Who are you bluffing?! Can you recover in a day or two? Then have you been lying down for nothing for the past five years? How much soup and medicine did I spend on you in the previous five years? How much good food did you eat? You told me that you’d suddenly recovered in the next two days. Are you trying to erase the credit of the family?”
Initially, Wang Chuangui thought that his legs had really recovered during this period of time.
Previously, no matter how much medicine he took or how many rounds of acupuncture he went through, it was useless.
But now that he heard his mother’s words, Wang Chuangui could not help but think deeper. Was it really the medicine from a few years ago that was slowly taking effect?
Otherwise, how could there be any divine medicine in the world that could instantly make his legs regain feelings?
“Mother, I was wrong!” Wang Chuangui decisively admitted his mistake and said to Old Madam Wang, “I was just about to tell you about it. After my legs regain sensation, will they slowly recover? The medicine will no longer need to be so expensive. There are still so many debts-”
“Alright, just focus on recuperating. You don’t have to worry about anything else. Since your legs have begun to recover, don’t be idle. Do what you have to do.” Seeing that Wang Chuangui’s thoughts had been successfully led astray by her, Old Madam Wang said calmly, “If you’re ambitious, fix your legs as soon as possible. Then, I’ll send you to school.”
Wang Chuangui was dumbfounded. “Ah? But I’m going to be 31 this year. It’s probably too late to study now, right?”
He did not expect that he still had to go to school when he’d already rounded the corners of the great 30s and moving towards his 40s.
He had already forgotten about going to school, but his mother still remembered!
“Some people are still taking the Imperial Examination at the age of 80. You’re only 31 years old. How is it late?! I think you’re just lazy. You lazy thing, don’t say that you’re my son when you go out!” Old Madam Wang was indignant at first, then she said with a sad expression, “I originally thought that if I gave birth to four sons, one of them would be able to bring honor to our ancestors and let me enjoy the life of a noble Madam. Looks like I’m still dreaming...”
Usually, Old Madam Wang would scold him here and there, and she rarely yielded. Now that she said this to Wang Chuangui, how could he stand it?
He could only wipe his tears and kowtow to Old Madam Wang a few times on the bed.
“Mother, if you say that, you’re flattering your son! Your son will definitely get better. I’ll definitely take the Imperial Examination well and earn you the proper title of Madam!”
After receiving the promise, the expression on Old Madam Wang’s face disappeared and she instantly regained her composure. “Alright, then recuperate well and recover early. I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”
...
Wang Chuangui was dumbfounded when he saw his mother’s expression change so quickly.
After Old Madam Wang left, Wang Chuangui was still a little stunned. “What was I going to say to Mother?”
At this moment, Qin Huai, who lived in Hu San’s house, was looking out of the courtyard for the 30th time.
Chi Jia, who was carrying two buckets of water, came in. When he saw this, he could not help but say, “Young Master, don’t look anymore. Miss Ah Yu isn’t coming. She went to the mountains with her brothers. All the children in the village have gone.”
Qin Huai silently moved his body in another direction and said in a low voice, “You talk too much. I didn’t ask you.”
“Since Young Master is not interested, I won’t say where they went.”
“Wait.” Qin Huai held his chest and said weakly, “I’m not feeling well. Bring me to investigate the mysteries of her and see if she’s behind it.”
Chi Jia: “...” Young Master, your acting skills are a little immature.
You never say so much usually!
