After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes
Chapter 10: The Abandoned First Wife (10)
When her great-aunt saw Zeng Min take out so many mushrooms and two wild animals, she hurriedly stopped her, telling Zeng Min not to let go and to keep them to nourish herself and Xiao Anlin.
Zeng Min didn't wait for her to catch up, and headed towards her aunt's house with her things. Before she even reached the next door, the sound could be heard.
"Xiao Anlin, are you home? Mom is here to pick you up." Xiao Anlin, who was inside the house, heard Zeng Min's voice and quickly got up from the floor of the main room and ran to the door to greet Zeng Min.
Before even seeing Zeng Min, he started calling out "Mom, Mom!" while pulling on his uncle who was playing with him, saying, "Uncle, my mom is here! Come on, let's go see her. I can hear my mom's voice."
You could hear the joy in her voice; she was clearly delighted to hear her mother's voice.
Zeng Min placed the two wild animals and mushrooms on the stone bench in front of her uncle's house. When she saw her son and younger cousin come out, she quickly bent down and picked up her son.
I wanted to kiss my son, but I gave up when I saw his dirty face.
She asked her little cousin, "How was it? Was Xiao Anlin well-behaved at home? Did he disturb you? Thank you for your help today, little cousin. Come to my house for dinner later. I found some wild animals today." As she spoke, she raised her chin, feeling that she was very proud of herself and had a great day.
My little cousin looked at the dirty little Anlin and said honestly, "Little Anning is very well-behaved at home. She doesn't make a fuss. I won't go to dinner; I'll eat at home."
Looking at my little cousin's shy and bashful expression, he was so well-behaved. I really wanted to pat his head, but I resisted. He's also good-looking and very polite. My uncle's family, except for my aunt, are all good-looking!
Unfortunately, my three younger cousins are all too young.
"You helped me take care of Xiao Anlin today, so it's only right that I treat you to a meal. Don't eat at home for a while, okay? I'll go home and cook. Come over to my house for dinner when it's ready." Seeing her aunt return home, Zeng Min carried Xiao Anlin home.
Zeng Min brought Xiao Anlin home and began preparing dinner. She clumsily handled the chicken and rabbit meat, while Xiao Anlin watched curiously from the side.
"Mom, we're having something delicious to eat today!" Xiao Anlin said excitedly.
Zeng Min smiled and rubbed her head against his. "That's right, you little glutton. You'll be able to eat delicious chicken and rabbit meat soon."
The mother and son were still interacting sweetly.
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard. Zeng Min went to open the door and saw Tu Mingcheng standing there.
"Why are you here?" Zeng Min asked, somewhat surprised.
Tu Mingcheng was carrying a basket filled with fruits and vegetables. "I was passing by and brought you some food," he said with a smile.
Holding up her dirty little hands, she said somewhat embarrassedly, "How could I take advantage of you? You've already given me several prey today."
Zeng Min invited him inside to sit down, and then went to deal with the chicken and rabbit meat that she had made a mess of.
When Tu Mingcheng saw this, he quickly told her to wash her hands, and he went to help her.
When Zeng Min saw him go to prepare the meat, she washed the pot, scooped a few ladles of water into it, and started a fire to boil the water.
Tu Mingcheng washed the chicken, chopped it into pieces, rinsed it in a basin, put it in a pot of boiling water, added some ginger and cardamom, then added the washed mushrooms and stewed them with the chicken. He also added some salt, covered the pot, and brought it to a boil over high heat for forty minutes before serving.
While waiting, Zeng Min took a few dried chilies and poked them into the charcoal ash in the stove hole.
Upon smelling the pungent aroma of chili peppers, use tongs to remove them, blow off the dust, and then crush them in a wooden mortar and pestle.
Add some chopped green onions and cilantro, a little salt, and some fermented black beans from my aunt's house to make a fragrant dipping sauce.
After dinner, the two sat in the courtyard chatting, and Zeng Min never asked him what he had come for.
Tu Mingcheng inquired about Zeng Min and Xiao Anlin's recent situation, and the atmosphere became relaxed and pleasant.
After dinner, Tu Mingcheng said goodbye and left. Zeng Min watched his departing figure, a strange emotion welling up inside her.
It seemed that Tu Mingcheng had developed some goodwill towards her because of their time together today. Zeng Min curled the corners of her mouth, revealing her confidence that she was determined to win him over.
As soon as Tu Mingcheng arrived home, he saw his mother sitting at the door: "Mom, it's already dark, why are you still sitting at the door?"
Wang Guiying looked at Tu Mingcheng, hesitant to speak, and asked, "Where did you go today? Didn't you eat at home? What time did you get home?"
Wang Guiying asked this question with a hint of cautious probing.
"I visited Zeng Min and Xiao Anlin," Tu Mingcheng answered truthfully.
Upon hearing this, Wang Guiying's expression changed instantly. She stood up and asked nervously, "Why did you go to see them?"
Seeing this, Tu Mingcheng quickly explained, "Mother, don't misunderstand. I was just passing by and was delivering some food."
Wang Guiying frowned. "You should avoid contact with her in the future. She's divorced and has a child. What if people misunderstand if you get too close to her?" Wang Guiying didn't even bother to find out why Tu Mingcheng, who lived at the edge of the village, would pass by Zeng Min's house.
Tu Mingcheng: "Mom, don't say such harsh things. Zeng Min is a good woman."
“I don’t care, you just need to stay away from her,” Wang Guiying said firmly.
“Don’t forget, you’re already married and have two children. Even if your relationship isn’t good, you have to put up with it for the sake of the children.” Wang Guiying became more and more worried, so she continued to patiently persuade him.
“Even if you don’t think about yourself, you should at least think about Zeng Min and her child, right? He’s just divorced, and you’re getting close to him. If you were single, it would be fine, but you’re a married man with a child. If people find out, they won’t just scold you; they’ll only scold Zeng Min for being unable to hold on, for being a seductive vixen.” Wang Guiying lowered her voice, trying to reason with Tu Mingcheng and appeal to his emotions, attempting to persuade his restless heart.
Although Wang Guiying disliked her youngest daughter-in-law, she also didn't want her youngest son to abandon his wife and children and become an ingrate.
Seeing that Tu Mingcheng didn't speak, Wang Guiying added, "Think it over carefully," and went inside.
Wang Guiying went inside and lay down, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Tu Laodie watched his wife rubbing herself, unable to sleep, as if she had lice on her body.
He asked, "What's wrong? You're tossing and turning, keeping me awake. Is something bothering you?"
Wang Guiying was furious and sat up abruptly: "You know nothing! Do you know where that brat Tu Mingcheng went today? He actually went to Zeng Min's house!"
I saw them walking down the mountain together today, and I felt something was off. You think they just met for the first time? And what was he doing at her house? I'm worried that kid might do something wrong.
Old Man Tu sighed, "Ah, my youngest son is suffering too. What's the use of marrying a wife like that? They still sleep in separate beds every year. If it weren't for their two grandsons, they would have divorced sooner or later. And my youngest daughter-in-law is always causing trouble. What man can stand that?" Old Man Tu was also worried about his youngest son.
"Never mind, let's go to sleep. We have to go to work tomorrow," Wang Guihua sighed softly and lay down again.
As Wang Guiying drifted off to sleep, Old Man Tu said again, "Keep an eye on them from now on, don't let anyone find out, it won't sound good."
