Ugly girl only wants to farm

Who is she trying to impress? She's clearly the one who's been wronged, yet she's putting on this act of deep affection for her grandchildren. She's never been particularly kind to them before, but she puts on this show as soon as her older brother comes back.

Meng Jiuxia went back to the kitchen to boil a pot of water and then quickly tidied up the bowls and chopsticks. His grandmother talked to her eldest grandson for a long time before reluctantly letting him go back into the house.

Before leaving, she said to him, "Grandma will make you something delicious tomorrow morning. It hurts to see how thin you are. Go back and get some rest."

Li San Niang also urged her son to hurry back: "You must be tired after studying these past few days and rushing back today."

Meng Jiu dawdled and didn't go back to his room. He didn't know how to face Xu Chaoyan. Just seeing her made him feel nauseous. He had only managed to finish his meal by enduring that nausea.

The two of them were going to stay in the same room again tonight, and he didn't know how to get along with them. He looked preoccupied.

Seeing that there was still a faint light shining from the kitchen, Li Sanniang put on her clothes and pushed open the door: "Jiuhe, what are you doing here? Why don't you go back inside and rest? Your wife is waiting for you inside."

"Mother, you go to sleep first! I'll soak my feet now, and then I'll go to the study to review my lessons. I've fallen behind too much lately, and I want to put in more effort." Meng Jiuhe said somewhat stiffly.

She gave birth to the son, so how could she not understand? She took a foot-wiping cloth from the side and handed it over: "The water is getting cold. Hurry up and wipe your feet. Your wife is easy to get along with and a good person. Treat her well. Don't judge a person by their appearance. No matter how good-looking someone is, if they have a vicious heart, it won't work. In a family like ours, it's already good that you were able to get a wife, let alone with the sick and old in the family."

Meng Jiuhe lifted the water out of the wooden basin, intending to pour it out: "I understand. You should go back and rest. By the way, is Dad's leg any better? Should we find a doctor to take a look?"

Li Sannian urged him, "Go back quickly, don't neglect your wife. This water maid is the one you'll spend your life with after you've gone to fetch your wife."

Meng Jiuhe said with some dissatisfaction, "Mother, you know what she used to force me to marry her. I really can't stand this kind of despicable behavior."

Li Sanniang said earnestly, "We chose her ourselves, so don't complain about her here. Don't let outsiders laugh at us. Go and rest! You've gone stupid from reading too much."

Urged by his mother, Meng Jiuhe put the wooden basin down, picked up the oil lamp, and first escorted his mother back to the house. As he knocked on the door, Li Sanniang said, "Go back first, I'll watch over you."

Under his mother's watchful gaze, Meng Jiuhe slowly walked into his room. His mind was in turmoil, and he didn't know how to face Xu Chaoyan.

I had originally planned to spend the night in the study, but my mother found out.

He walked step by step, as if each step weighed a ton, requiring immense effort.

Xu Chaoyan, however, was sleeping soundly inside the house. She had originally thought that Meng Jiuhe would come back to the house, but upon reflection, she realized that the two of them had only spent one hurried night on their wedding night.

Moreover, Meng Jiuhe never set foot here again that night.

She thought to herself, "I can't care!"

Since there was nothing to do for entertainment anyway, she felt sleepy, yawned widely, and then collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.
