The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 86 Investigate the Mystery Within Her
Only then did Grandma Wang realize that after Xiao Ayu obtained the water from the space, she had tried giving it to the whole family to drink.

Even the water tank in their house contained water that Xiao Ayu had put in it.

Wang Chuangui, who looked unhealthy, and Old Wang Tou, had both received extra care from Xiao Ayu.

Grandma Wang had previously thought that Xiao Ayu liked to bring water to her family, but now that she thought about it more carefully, she guessed that the child had changed the water during that time.

Grandma Wang's expression was complicated: "Good child, you're so thoughtful."

Little Ayu tilted her head and gave a very sweet smile: "Grandma, Ayu loves everyone in the family, Ayu loves you, and we all want to be healthy!"

These are the words that Tuanzi often says to Xiao Ayu.

Although Xiao Ayu's language system had returned to normal, there were still some words she didn't know. So, Tuanzi took advantage of the time when Xiao Ayu went to the space to farm to tell her stories and expand her vocabulary.

However, Tuanzi often feels helpless when faced with a child who is always asking "why".

"Ayu, you must never tell anyone about you and that spirit again, not even your mother, and not even your grandmother in special circumstances," Grandma Wang said very seriously to little Ayu.

This puzzled Xiao Ayu. Why couldn't she tell them? They were family.

Besides, if a child doesn't understand something, they will definitely tell an adult.

Grandma Wang noticed the confusion in Xiao Ayu's eyes, but she knew that the child wouldn't understand if she talked about the complexities of human nature, so she simply stopped talking about it.

"Just listen to Grandma, and you'll understand later."

Little Ayu seemed to understand, but didn't quite, and nodded: "Ayu understands."

After calming herself down, Grandma Wang decided to go see her second son first.

If what Ayu said is true, and she gave her second son water, he still didn't react at all.

This either means the water couldn't cure the illness, or it means the second son's leg was beyond saving.

"Ayu, Grandma really likes the things you gave her today." Grandma Wang patted little Ayu's head, planning to cook a nice meal for her at noon.

She had only taken in a baby less than a month old, yet the child was so devoted to the Wang family. They could never betray such a pure and innocent heart.

But she was determined to protect the child's secret at all costs.

I'll inevitably have to play the villain again.

"Wang Wulang! All you do all day is play around! Why don't you bring your sister with you? Come back right now, or I'll break your legs and make you lie down with your second uncle!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Wulang, who was outside the courtyard, hurriedly ran back, grabbed Xiao Ayu, and ran off.

"Grandma, I know! I'll take care of little Yu. Don't worry, I'll be back for lunch on time!"

"Even if you forget yourself, you won't forget to eat!" Grandma Wang was very reassured about this.

Wang Wulang chuckled, didn't answer, and simply walked away in a flash.

"Sister Ayu, let's go catch a pheasant!"

He had just heard that the village children had all gone into the mountains, apparently having discovered a pheasant nest. He had to hurry, lest he miss it.

He waited outside on purpose, intending to bring his sister Ayu along.

Meanwhile, seeing that no one was home, Old Mrs. Wang went into Wang Chuangui's bedroom, where Wang Chuangui was struggling to sit up.

Suddenly, their eyes met. Old Mrs. Wang's. Old Mrs. Wang: "..."

Wang Chuangui: "..."

Seeing that her second son could sit up on his own, what else could Grandma Wang not understand?
"I think you've grown up and are healthy enough to lie in bed waiting for your old lady to serve you, haven't you?" Old Mrs. Wang walked over quickly, her eyes filled with disappointment as she looked at Wang Chuangui. "You can sit up on your own now, but you still need your old lady to serve you meals every day. Do you think you're so capable? I thought you were the smartest child in the family, and you could see the family's difficulties. You were supposed to be quite sensible. I never expected you to be so unambitious!"

These words were somewhat malicious; anyone with a modicum of self-respect would find them unbearable, let alone Wang Chuangui.

Without thinking, he hurriedly said, "Mom, I was just about to tell you. A couple of days ago I felt some feeling in my legs, and last night I vaguely felt my hands were stronger. I was just trying to see if I could sit up—"

Grandma Wang interrupted him: "Are you kidding me? You think you can get better in a day or two? Did you lie there for nothing for the past five years? How much money did I spend on medicine and food for you in the past five years? And you're telling me you're suddenly better in just a couple of days? Are you trying to erase all the hard work our family has done for you?"

Wang Chuangui originally thought that his leg had really gotten better during this period.

No matter how much medicine I took or how many times I had moxibustion and acupuncture, it was all to no avail.

But now that he heard his mother say that, Wang Chuangui couldn't help but think more deeply. Was it really the medicine from a few years ago that was slowly taking effect?

Otherwise, what kind of miraculous medicine could restore sensation to his legs so quickly?

"Mother, I was wrong!" Wang Chuangui readily admitted his mistake, then said to Old Mrs. Wang, "I was just about to tell you that now that I can feel my legs again, I hope they'll gradually get better. That way, the medicine at home won't be so expensive anymore, and we still have so much debt—"

"Alright, just focus on getting better. You don't need to worry about anything else. Now that your leg is starting to heal, don't just sit around doing nothing. Do what you're supposed to do." Seeing that Wang Chuangui's thoughts had been successfully swayed by her, Old Mrs. Wang said calmly, "If you're going to live up to expectations, then get your leg back in shape as soon as possible, and then I'll send you back to school."

Wang Chuangui was dumbfounded: "Huh? But I'm almost 31 this year. If I start learning now, it might be too late, right?"

I never imagined that I'd still be going to school when I'm almost forty.

He had completely forgotten that he had ever gone to school, but his mother still remembered!

“People are taking the imperial examinations at 80, and you’re only 31. What’s the rush? I think you’re just lazy. You lazy bum, don’t go out and say you’re my son!” Old Mrs. Wang was indignant at first, then her face fell with sadness. “I thought that if I had four sons, at least one of them would bring honor to the family and let me experience the life of a noblewoman. It seems that I, an old woman, was just being wishful thinking…”

Grandma Wang usually scolds and rarely backs down, so how could Wang Chuangui bear it when she said this to him?

He could only wipe away his tears and kowtow several times to Old Mrs. Wang through the bed.

"Mother, you're making me feel terrible! I'll definitely get better and study hard for the imperial examinations so I can earn you a title of Lady!"

Having received the promise, Grandma Wang's expression vanished, and she instantly regained her composure: "Alright, then you should take good care of yourself and get well soon. I have other things to do, so I'll be going now."

Wang Chuangui was completely dumbfounded when he saw his mother's expression change so quickly.

After Grandma Wang left, Wang Chuangui was still a little confused: "What was I originally going to say to Mother?"

At this moment, Qin Huai, who was staying at Hu San's house, had looked out of the courtyard for the 30th time.

Chijia, who had just helped carry two buckets of water, couldn't help but say upon seeing this, "Young master, don't look anymore. Miss Ayu isn't coming. She went to the mountains with her brothers. All the children in the village have gone too."

Qin Huai silently shifted his body in a different direction and said in a low voice, "Don't talk back, I didn't ask you."

"Since you're not interested, I won't say where they went specifically."

"Wait a minute." Qin Huai clutched his chest and said weakly, "I'm feeling a bit unwell. Take me to check on her and see if she's the one behind this."

Red Armor: "..." Young Master, your acting is a bit immature.

You've never talked this much before!
