Ugly girl only wants to farm
Chapter 54 Encounter with Aunt
Meng Jiuxia looked surprised: "How did you know about such a secret thing as morning glories? I never thought my second aunt was this kind of person. I really couldn't tell from her usual behavior."
Meng Jiuhe also looked surprised, but he didn't show it so obviously.
Xu Chaoyan chuckled twice: "I made it up, and that woman believed it. It seems her husband is indeed not honest with her."
When they arrived at the town clinic, it was the same doctor as before. Upon seeing that Meng Jiuhe had woken up, he exclaimed that he was very lucky and that his leg was showing signs of improvement, but it would probably be difficult for him to fully recover.
Meng Jiuhe's face changed instantly. The doctor was still babbling on and on, and Xu Chaoyan's eyes were practically twitching from blinking so hard, but the man still didn't get the hint.
"Doctor, could you take a look at me? My stomach is a little uncomfortable."
After finally managing to divert the man's attention, he made another startling statement: "This lady's pulse is stable, and there is nothing wrong with her. It's just that she is a bit cold-sensitive and may have fewer children in the future. In the future, have your husband warm your feet in the winter to prevent them from getting cold. However, since she is still young, just get some medicine and take good care of her. She will definitely have many children and grandchildren in the future."
The room suddenly became very quiet, and Xu Chaoyan's face visibly turned red. This doctor was really bringing up the very thing he shouldn't have, making him feel embarrassed and unable to look at anyone. He had only intended to change the subject, but he had ended up getting himself into trouble.
Meng Jiuhe turned his head away immediately. Seeing him shrink into a quail, Xu Chaoyan could only force a smile and say, "What you said makes sense. We will keep it in mind."
However, Meng Jiuxia was a little anxious and quickly said, "Doctor, please quickly prescribe a prescription and get the medicine for her. She should be properly treated. Other people who are about the same age as my brother already have children crawling all over the place. My brother has only been married for a short time, and she still has few children. Is she able to have children or not? If she can't have children, it's good to treat her illness as soon as possible."
Xu Chaoyan wanted to find a hole to crawl into. Could this sister-in-law please stop talking? Didn't she see her winking?
"Young lady, there's no rush. Let's wait until your older brother recovers first."
Xu Chaoyan looked Meng Jiuhe up and down. Meng Jiuhe felt embarrassed by Xu Chaoyan's disdainful look and glared at her without any shame.
"Take this prescription to get the medicine. When you get back, don't do any strenuous exercise. Young people should be more restrained. There's plenty of time in the future, so take it easy and get your health back first."
Xu Chaoyan: My heart is in turmoil, how can this be blamed on me?
Meng Jiu coughed and tried to explain, "Doctor, you may have misunderstood. I accidentally fell off the bed."
The doctor stroked his beard and said, "I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. I've seen all sorts of strange and unusual things. Enough said, I know everything."
"Doctor, you need the medicine, right? I'll go right away."
Xu Chaoyan found it quite amusing to see Meng Jiuhe's face flushed and his expression of being misunderstood. She never expected him to have such a day, and she covered her mouth to chuckle to herself.
"What? You want five taels of silver for just this? Are you robbing me?"
Xu Chaoyan looked at the string of medicine packets with a pained expression. She only had one tael of silver and some copper coins left. She had originally planned to buy some coarse rice to take home and make do for a few days.
Shopkeeper: "Young lady, you can't talk nonsense. We're here to do legitimate business. Don't ruin our reputation. The herbs here are quite expensive."
"Little sister, go out and see if she can stop getting the medicine. She doesn't feel pain anymore."
Upon hearing this, Meng Jiuhe propped himself up to get up.
Xu Chaoyan looked at the silver with reluctance, afraid that she would change her mind, and quickly handed it over: "Give me the medicine?"
Meng Jiuxia: "Big brother, before I could even say anything, Trumpet Flower said she'd got the medicine. Look at this..."
When Meng Jiuhe saw her return carrying a bag of medicine, his brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly.
"How about we take it back? I'm fine."
Xu Chaoyan waved the medicine packet in her hand: "Never mind, you're in so much pain your face is pale, getting better is the priority."
Meng Jiuhe remained silent.
"Sister Yan, what brings you to town? Didn't you say you were getting married?"
A woman stared at Xu Chaoyan, who was still searching her memory.
The woman grabbed her arm and said, "Why are you at the clinic? Are you here for that kind of thing?"
Xu Chaoyan: ? ? ?
Seeing that she didn't understand, the woman said tactfully, "Is it because your in-laws are pressuring you? It's indeed worrying that you're married and not pregnant. Don't let them take advantage of you. Having a child isn't just your responsibility."
Xu Chaoyan blushed instantly, unsure of where to put her hands.
Today is truly an unlucky day. Besides, she's only been married for a short time. This pressure to have a baby is so sudden and unexpected.
Meng Jiuhe lay there, his eyes darting around. Xu Chaoyan rolled her eyes at him, thinking, "What a man! He doesn't even know how to say a word. Whatever, no one else is embarrassed. Why should I care so much?"
"Thank you for your concern, Auntie. My marriage is still in its early stages, so I'll just let things take their course."
"By the way, where did your father and the others move to? They didn't even send a message back. And you've gotten married, so your memory has gotten worse. I'm your aunt, aren't I? Even though we're cousins, you always liked to come to my room. I've always treated you like my own daughter."
After saying that, she said apologetically, "Your marriage is too sudden. Your aunt just happened to go back to her parents' home, and you got married before I had a chance to give you a dowry. Today is the perfect opportunity to make up for it."
Xu Chaoyan racked her brains for a long time but couldn't remember who had bullied her, so she could only reply with a few words: "Hello, Auntie, please forgive my gender."
The woman handed the basket over directly: "Don't be disgusted. Take this basket of eggs back to nourish your body. This is all the family can afford, so don't be distant in the future. I embroidered a few handkerchiefs for you before; come with me back to get them later."
Xu Chaoyan was very tempted by the basket of eggs, but when she glanced at the woman's worn-out clothes, she guessed that her family was not well-off and was just getting by.
She pushed the basket back: "Aunt, I can't accept this. I have something to do today, so I'll get the handkerchief next time."
The woman said with a stern face, "You just look down on your aunt. Your stepmother used to not let you come to our house to play, and now you're getting more and more distant from me. Your aunt doesn't have any daughters, so she's always been fond of you."
After she finished speaking, her eyes also reddened.
Meng Jiuhe coughed lightly, clenching his fist: "Well, please accept Auntie's kind offer."
The woman looked in the direction from which the voice came and said, "Who is this?"
Meng Jiuhe: "Hello, Auntie."
Xu Chaoyan continued, "She is my husband. I came to see him today because he accidentally fell the other day."
After examining him closely, the woman pulled Xu Chaoyan closer and whispered in her ear, "Didn't you take a fancy to your father's accountant's son before? Is this man even more handsome than that one?"
