A Happy Event in a Farming Family: Marrying a Hunter

When Yunlu woke up, she felt a little dizzy. She smelled a strong Chinese medicine odor that made her feel nauseous.

"mother……"

"Are you still feeling unwell?" Qin Zheng asked, leaning down, then suddenly realized something and took a few steps back. "Do you want some water? The village doctor said you have a fever."

It turns out he was sick.

Yunlu didn't actually feel too uncomfortable, and her body didn't seem to be in any way wrong. Could it be related to her fox mark?

She forced a smile and ruffled the heads of the two little ones. "Mommy will be fine after a nap. Come on, go out and play."

The two children clearly didn't believe it, staring at Qin Zheng expectantly.

Qin Zheng seemed somewhat helpless as he took the medicine over, scooped up a spoonful, blew on it to cool it, and fed it to her lips, saying, "Drink the medicine first."

Yunlu really wanted to say that she should just gulp it down to avoid suffering, but seeing how seriously Qin Zheng was feeding her the medicine, she couldn't bring herself to say it.

"Open your mouth."

Yunlu opened her mouth and drank it. It wasn't too bitter. She smiled and said, "This medicine isn't very bitter. It even tastes a little sweet."

Xiaoyu's eyes lit up when she heard the word "sweet," and she insisted on tasting the medicine. Yunluo doted on her, and Qin Zheng had no choice but to let her sip the medicine with a spoon. The little girl's face scrunched up like a twisted dough stick, and she stuck out her tongue, "Mother is lying, it's bitter."

"Medicine is bitter," Qin Zheng said.

Yunlu's face flushed slightly. She wanted to ask if she thought the medicine wasn't bitter because she was in a good mood.

Hehe, I can't tell!

After she finished the whole bowl of medicine, Qin Zheng fed her a small half bowl of water, but noticed that Yun Luo's face was a little red. Qin Zheng suspiciously touched her forehead and asked, "Do you have a fever again? Why is your face so red?"

Yunluo, "..."

Qin Zheng patted her, then used one hand to touch his own head. Yun Luo felt guilty and quickly moved his hand away, saying, "The medicine made me a little hot, it will be fine in a bit."

"By the way, you don't need to cook tomorrow. I've sent someone to deliver a message to Zhou Hao's family. You can just rest at home."

Yunluo wasn't so pretentious. "Alright, it's market day tomorrow, and I'll go to town to sell the eggs."

Qin Zheng frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he said, "Okay, you can stay home in the morning and wait for me. I'll come back to pick you up at noon."

"I……"

"That's the decision!" Qin Zheng didn't give her a chance to object.

Okay, Yunlu thought she shouldn't bother him.

Since someone was there to answer, it was actually easier for her. "By the way, Brother Qin, remember to send a few to Brother Zhou's family. Also, Aunt Zhang's family has a lot of people, so send four over. That should be enough for one meal. Give two to my mother's family and three to Fatty's family. Let them have a taste first. If we make more later, we'll send more. What do you think?"

"it is good."

Day two.

Yunlu got up. Breakfast had been prepared long ago and was warming in the big pot. She thought of Qin Zheng busy in the kitchen early in the morning, and her heart felt warm.

After breakfast, she didn't rest. She poured the preserved eggs into a large winnowing basket. Every household has these, which are convenient for drying things on weekdays.

She then proceeded to select each egg one by one. Choosing preserved eggs is quite an art. If you weigh them in your palm and they wobble slightly inside, they are good. After this round of selection, only a few were not good. She kept them to eat at home and then set aside a small portion, packed them up, and went out.

After delivering the two groups, only the mother's place remained. As Yun Luo passed by the main gate of the Yun family, Yun Lan was sitting on the threshold, craning her neck to look.

She was looking in the direction of the Li family's house.

As for feelings, Li Pinglang hasn't shown up since yesterday.

Such a big thing, and you didn't even offer an explanation? You're not a real man.

Look at her, Yunlan is practically a statue waiting for her husband.

She sighed. Yunlan heard it, but just glared at her fiercely without arguing with her. Instead, she started sobbing and shedding tears.

Yunlu had never seen her not get angry before, and asked suspiciously, "Are you alright?"

"What do you know? My brother wrote me a love poem, it's so touching. I'm just feeling moved, what do you know!"

Feelings are running high here, like a melancholy poem.

Yun Luo scoffed, "What's so interesting about such a sour poem?" She turned to leave, but Yun Lan grabbed her arm, "What are you laughing at? Can your Qin Zheng even write one? He probably hasn't even said a word to you."

"Of course! Brother Qin is a real man; he always does more than he says. Look, he didn't say anything and just married me. Unlike some people, who talk a good game but don't deliver. Why don't you ask him to marry you right away?"

After giving Yunlu a good scolding, she felt refreshed and relaxed.

Yunlan was furious. She grabbed the sole of her shoe and was about to hit him when Yunlu ducked down. The person coming from behind her was caught off guard and was hit directly by the sole of her shoe.

"Oh dear, Yunlan, are you trying to rebel?" Yun Gui rubbed his back, looking listless. His eyes were swollen, and the dark circles under his eyes were almost like those of a national treasure.

What's even more alarming is that his face was as white as a ghost.

Yunlan covered her mouth, "Third Uncle, are you possessed by a ghost? What's wrong with you?"

"Nonsense! You're the one who's possessed by a ghost! I've been looking for you all night, haven't I? You brat, when did you get back?" Yun Gui scolded as she spoke, then noticed someone beside her and tried to reach out and lean on them.

Yunlu avoided the question, her smile carrying a deeper meaning. "Third Uncle, you're really good to Sister Lan."

Why did she feel that her third uncle looked like he had been completely drained?

Yun Gui glared at her resentfully and said irritably, "What do you know!"

Hearing the noise, the people inside came out one after another. Seeing Yun Gui like this, they were quite frightened. When they heard that he had been looking for Yun Lan all night, they were heartbroken.

Zhao Chunzhi and the old lady each carried the man into the house, followed by a large group of people. The old lady even declared that Yunnan and Guizhou had worked hard to find him, and that she would cook him a poached egg to help him recover.

Yun Luo scoffed. "Get well soon so you can go serve Widow Wang?"

She covered her mouth and laughed for a long time before going to the backyard.

When they went inside, Yun Shaojie was chopping wood in front of the house. Yun Luo put out a preserved egg, looked around, and didn't see Zhou Rong. "Where's Mother?"

“I sent a letter back last night saying that my grandmother is sick and that my mother should take care of her for a few days. She won’t be able to come back for a while.”

Yunlu helped gather the firewood. "These days aren't the busy farming season, so it's fine if Aunt is busy. But there are still cousins, so why does Mother need to take care of them?"

“My cousin is unreliable, and my older cousin… only Mom can take care of her. Sister, I plan to go see Mom tomorrow and see what’s going on.”

"Okay, I'll go with you."

She wanted to see what kind of monsters and demons were over there.

"By the way, sis, there's something..." Yun Shaojie whispered something in Yun Luo's ear, and Yun Luo's eyes lit up. "You really saw it?"

“It’s true. I was washing my shoes by the river that day. Uncle didn’t see me. Sister, what do you think Uncle was doing sneaking off to town?”

"What else can he do but find women!" I just don't know if Uncle San's woman is Widow Wang or Widow Zhang.

Tsk tsk tsk!

I never would have guessed that my third uncle had this skill.
