Ugly girl only wants to farm

Chapter 49 Giving up on oneself

Seeing that he was on the verge of a breakdown, Xu Chaoyan decided not to argue with him anymore. She simply softened her voice and said gently, "Let me help you to bed first. I just cured your cold, so don't catch it again. Don't take what your second uncle said to heart. He just doesn't like our family living a peaceful life and is trying to sow discord."

Meng Jiuhe couldn't accept that his leg was crippled and he would never be able to stand up again. When he saw Xu Chaoyan come over to help him up, he couldn't hold back his anger any longer and yelled at her, "Can you get away from me? I don't need your sympathy or your pity. Are you very satisfied with my current state? Do you want to laugh?"

Xu Chaoyan silently repeated to herself that he was a patient and she couldn't argue with him. She took a deep breath, prepared herself, and smiled, "Husband, what are you saying? How could I despise you? I loved you so much before, and my father went to great lengths to get me married into your family. My heart for you is as clear as day. As long as you don't despise me, that's enough."

As Xu Chaoyan said these insincere words, she felt herself about to climax.

Meng Jiu ignored her words, staring blankly at his legs. Suddenly, he raised his fist and punched his legs repeatedly, roaring, "It's all because these legs are useless! Why didn't you just kill me? Why make me live in this world in such a shameful way, suffering endless humiliation?"

Meng Jiuxia was the first to hear the commotion from her older brother's room. She rushed in and saw her brother sitting on the floor looking dejected, hitting his legs hard. She quickly grabbed his hands and said anxiously, "Brother, what are you doing? Are you planning to give up your legs?"

Meng Jiuhe: "Little sister, even you are lying to me."

Meng Jiuxia looked away guiltily, avoiding his gaze: "When did I lie to you? The doctor said that you should cooperate with the acupuncture and rehabilitation training, and you will be able to stand up sooner or later. Also, don't take what your second uncle said too seriously. You know that your cousin is mediocre and has been overshadowed by you all these years. Your second uncle's family is very concerned about their reputation. He just came to kick you when you're down. If you really give up on yourself like this, we will really fall into their trap."

After hearing her words, Meng Jiuhe regained some of her composure: "You all go out first, I want to be alone for a while."

Meng Jiuhe spoke calmly to the two of them.

After exchanging a glance, Xu Chaoyan and her sister-in-law gave each other a look. Once Meng Jiuxia received Xu Chaoyan's message, she agreed.

"Big brother, let me help you to the bed first, and then I'll go out, okay?"

Seeing that Meng Jiuhe did not refuse, the two quickly helped him to the bed, brushed off the dust, and tucked him in.

After the two went outside, Meng Jiuxia looked worried: "Mala Flower, what are we going to do now? I originally wanted to keep it from him, but who would have thought that troublemaker would come and expose someone's secret? He's really done a lot of harm."

Xu Chaoyan comforted him, "I don't know what to do either. Let's just take it one step at a time. By the way, you've been in a bad mood lately, so be careful what you say. I'll keep an eye on your brother's condition tonight."

When it was time to eat, Meng Jiuxia brought the food to the room early. She saw her older brother lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. He didn't respond when she called him. Seeing his empty and lifeless appearance, her heart broke. Her older brother used to be such a proud person. Now his legs were crippled and he could no longer stand up. It was a huge blow to him.

She wanted to say a few words of comfort, but didn't know how to start: "Brother, why don't you eat something first? I made your favorite dish today."

Meng Jiuhe ignored her and continued to stare blankly at the top of the tent.

Meng Jiuxia muttered to herself, "Then I'll leave it here for now, and you can eat it whenever you want, okay?"

No one disturbed him all afternoon. When night fell, Meng Jiuxia brought him his meal as usual. Seeing the untouched food from lunch, she couldn't hold back her tears any longer and they streamed down her face. Her voice choked with sobs as she said, "Brother, don't be so hard on yourself. Let's eat something first, get better, and slowly recover. You'll definitely be able to stand up again. That miracle doctor said there's still a chance your leg can heal."

When Xu Chaoyan saw her sister-in-law return with the untouched food, she looked dejected and frowned. What was wrong with this man? He was acting like a woman. It was just a leg injury! The doctor said that if he exercised actively, he would still have a chance to stand up. What was he up to by going on a hunger strike?

She took the warm bowl of medicine back into the room and saw that Meng Jiuhe was still in the same position as before, without any change: "I brought you your medicine, drink it while it's hot."

Meng Jiuhe said indifferently, "Why waste this money? My leg is useless anyway, so don't worry about me anymore. Go back to where you came from!"

Xu Chaoyan thought to herself, "I also want to go back to my own home and find my own mother, but it's not possible right now. I don't know where my cheap father has gone. Apart from this Meng family's courtyard, I don't even have a place to stay. In order to save my life for the time being, I have to stay here."

She deliberately put on a stern face: "Why are you talking nonsense? These medicines were bought with my dowry money. Don't waste them. You know the current situation at home. Stop acting like a child. You are an adult and should shoulder your responsibilities. Hurry up and drink these medicines. I will accompany you for rehabilitation training from now on."

Meng Jiuhe found it very annoying to hear her chattering on and on. Her mind was already in a mess, and listening to Trumpet Flower's incessant chatter only made her more irritable.

"Can you please leave? Don't worry about me, I want to be alone. Can't you even grant me this small request?"

Xu Chaoyan: I'd like to be alone with you, but you have to eat and take your medicine obediently. It's all my money, isn't it? It hurts, doesn't it?

When Meng Jiuhe saw Xu Chaoyan standing there holding the medicine bowl, he looked at her with disgust and said, "Get out of here. Seeing your face reminds me of that humiliating night."

Xu Chaoyan then realized that she had forgotten to wear her veil.

She then pulled a veil from her person and covered her face: "Husband, are you not nauseous now? Let's drink the medicine first and I'll go out right away, okay?"

Meng Jiuhe glanced at her: "Don't call me. Don't you have any shame? Can't you see how disgusted I am with you? Fine, if you're not leaving, then I'll leave."

Before Xu Chaoyan could react, Meng Jiuhe fell to the ground with a thud.

Xu Chaoyan was so angry that she wanted to pry open his head to see what was inside. Could it be that he bought his scholar's degree?
