Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook
Chapter 349 The Hunter's Little Darling 6
Xie Qingyu's eyes were not congenital; she injured them accidentally last year.
The doctor initially said there was a possibility of recovery, but after such a long time, I can only see some light and haven't fully recovered yet.
Because of her eye problem, Xie Qingyu's arranged marriage was called off.
However, her father naturally wouldn't tell anyone back home about this.
So they didn't know that Xie Qingyu, who was sent back, was actually blind.
"I hurt myself by accident. Father was afraid that Grandma would worry, so he didn't dare to say anything." Xie Qingyu's words were an excuse.
Fu Bao should be able to tell too.
"It's such a pity, sister. You're so beautiful, but your eyesight is failing." Fu Bao's words seemed to express regret for Xie Qingyu, but in reality, they held no affection for her.
His gaze even lingered on Xie Qingyu's face.
"There's nothing we can do about it. You study in town, so you must know a lot of capable people. If you have the chance in the future, you can try to find out if anyone can cure your eyes."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely find out for you." Fu Bao's voice carried a hint of flattery.
Xie Qingyu glanced in his direction and nodded at him.
The short walk to the main room took Xie Qingyu quite a while, and with Fu Bao by her side the whole time, Xie Qingyu couldn't even reach out to check if there were any obstacles in front of her.
We could only roughly find the direction of the main room door by relying on the changes in light.
Moreover, when Xie Qingyu entered the main room, Fu Bao was following behind her.
Xie Qingyu stepped in, then pulled her foot back the instant she did so.
“The food is on the table inside. I asked Grandma to save it for you,” Fu Bao said.
Xie Qingyu forced a smile at him, "I haven't washed my face yet."
Xie Qingyu walked into the courtyard again. She didn't know what had gotten into Fu Bao, but her gaze made her feel uncomfortable.
As Xie Qingyu walked out, Xie Sanya returned.
"Sister Qiu, you're back." Xie Qingyu keenly recognized the footsteps.
Last night, the two of them slept in the same room, and Xie Qingyu could still tell the difference between her walking sound and that of others.
"What are you doing standing in the yard? Hurry up and finish your meal and get back to work." Sister Qiu wasn't in a good mood.
"I haven't washed my face or eaten yet," Xie Qingyu stated with a hint of helplessness in her voice.
Without saying a word, Sister Qiu walked up, grabbed Xie Qingyu's arm and pulled her aside, then fetched water with a clanging sound. "Hurry up and finish washing up, then come up the mountain with me."
“She can’t see, so let her stay home and rest. What can she do by coming up the mountain with you?” Fu Bao said somewhat disapprovingly.
“Now is the perfect time to pick chestnuts. She can’t see, so she’s picking them up under the tree. We can’t just let her eat for free.” Sister Qiu’s voice was equally unfriendly as she spoke to Fu Bao, but she explained her reasoning, clearly not wanting to offend anyone.
The siblings don't act like siblings at all.
While the two were talking, Xie Qingyu had already washed her face and rinsed her mouth.
"It'll get hot soon when the sun comes out, so hurry up and pack your things. You can eat on the way," Sister Qiu said anxiously.
She spoke quickly and went straight to the main room to get half a steamed bun for Xie Qingyu.
They were only able to eat cornbread because Fu Bao came back; they rarely saw such dry rations.
After Qiu Jie came out, she stuffed the cornbread into Xie Qingyu's hand and then went to carry her basket.
Today her mother is going to help in the fields, so she has to pick chestnuts by herself. If she doesn't pick enough, her grandmother will definitely be unhappy when she gets back, so she has to make the most of every minute.
Especially now that Xie Qingyu is also involved, it's even more of a waste of time.
Qiu Jie grabbed her basket, pulled Xie Qingyu along, and went out the door, completely ignoring Fu Bao behind her.
Anyway, he definitely doesn't have to do any work.
Xie Qingyu was dragged up the mountain by Sister Qiu, and the journey was indeed difficult.
And traveling while eating cornbread is so choking it can really kill you.
Xie Qingyu reluctantly ate two bites and then put the food away, reassured herself and continued on her journey with Sister Qiu.
This was the first time Qiu Jie had taken the initiative to talk to Xie Qingyu.
Previously, I just pretended not to see it.
"Lift your foot," Sister Qiu said sternly. "There's an uphill slope ahead."
Going into the mountains when you can't see is really not a good choice.
Although Qiu Jie could give some pointers in some places, Xie Qingyu stumbled along the way due to the many bumps and uneven ground, and almost fell several times.
Sister Qiu didn't say a word, she just supported her to prevent her from falling.
With so many sharp rocks, if you fall, your face will be badly injured.
Qiu Jie's gaze involuntarily drifted to Xie Qingyu. Such a beautiful face... what if she got hurt...?
Perhaps because she was with Xie Qingyu, Sister Qiu didn't go inside much today.
It's chestnut season now, and they're everywhere on the hillsides, so you won't have trouble finding them.
The location that Sister Qiu chose was not too far away; she could faintly hear other people's voices. The location was alright.
“You wait for me under this tree,” Sister Qiu said.
Xie Qingyu stood there for a while before she heard the sound of the branches swaying, followed by a series of crackling sounds.
Then Sister Qiu jumped down.
"Come on, pick them up under this tree. They've all fallen to the ground. Just be careful when you're looking, don't prick your hands." After saying that, Sister Qiu walked to the side.
Xie Qingyu didn't say anything, but squatted down and began to feel around for chestnuts.
Chestnuts in their shells were indeed a bit tricky, especially when Xie Qingyu couldn't see them; she would get pricked every time she touched one.
Therefore, Xie Qingyu's speed could not be increased.
However, Sister Qiu didn't expect her to be very efficient when she brought her along. No matter how much Xie Qingyu did, she didn't say a word and just silently ran from one tree to another.
By the time Xie Qingyu had almost finished picking up all the fallen leaves from the tree, Qiu Jie's basket was already half full.
Seeing this, Sister Qiu found another tree for Xie Qingyu, but this tree clearly had fewer chestnuts, indicating that chestnut resources were still somewhat scarce.
Sister Qiu didn't say anything, she just worked silently.
I left home in the morning and didn't return until evening.
The meal we ate in between consisted of chestnuts from Sister Qiu.
Xie Qingyu fumbled to divide her morning cornbread in half and gave one half to Sister Qiu.
Qiu Jie didn't say anything, silently took the water, and then gave Xie Qingyu some of the water she had brought.
"Can your eyes be cured?" After finishing their meal, the two sat on the floor to rest, neither of them getting up immediately.
Xie Qingyu nodded, "The doctor said I could recover, but I don't know when I will."
"Then it's better not to," Sister Qiu said.
Xie Qingyu looked toward Sister Qiu in the direction of the voice, waiting for her next words.
"If you do that, you'll be sold off." Sister Qiu said this as if she were somewhat embarrassed.
