Chapter 131: Chapter 132 Nausea
Reflecting on the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills in her space, Xu Ying planned to grind them into powder when she got back and give her sister-in-law a little bit at a ti, which should help treat her brain ailnt.
“Auntie, I bought so pork, and this duck was given by soone from the factory. Please see how you’d like to prepare it.”
Mother Zhao felt sowhat embarrassed upon seeing Xu Ying. She had wronged the girl that afternoon, and it was fortunate that Xu Ying hadn’t taken offense; otherwise, what would she have done if she had vented her anger on her daughter?
She was very polite to Xu Ying, “We could cook the pork for dinner tonight, and the duck can wait until tomorrow.
“When are you leaving tomorrow? We can slaughter it before you go.”
Though Eldest Sister-in-law Xu seed fine now, Xu Ying still felt sowhat uneasy and intended to observe her for one more day and also take the opportunity to inquire about hiring soone before leaving.
...
“We’ll leave tomorrow afternoon, catching the last bus.”
Mother Zhao wished they could stay longer to spend more ti with her daughter and nodded in agreent at once, “Alright, then we’ll butcher the duck at noon tomorrow.”
For dinner, Mother Zhao stir-fried the pork and made a large pot of mixed stew; several pounds of pork went into it. The Zhao family, working at the at factory, naturally didn’t lack pork offal.
Mother Zhao added pork liver and large intestines into the mix. Every person at the al ate until their mouth was dripping with grease.
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu, however, didn’t find the al as appetizing and thought it was not as delicious as what her little aunt made.
Especially upon slling the large intestines, she felt her stomach churn tumultuously and couldn’t help but cover her mouth and rush to the kitchen to retch.
Mother Zhao was confused, “What’s the matter, it’s not another headache, is it? The at slls wonderful; why would you throw up?”
Xu Ying, on the other hand, was delighted and quickly set down her utensils and ran into the kitchen, asking Mother Zhao in wonder, “Aunt, could it be that my sister-in-law is pregnant? She was like this when she was carrying Shitou and Hu Zi.”
At those words, Mother Zhao’s face lit up as if the clouds had parted, slapping her thigh with a beaming smile, “Oh my, could she really be pregnant!”
“That doctor today really, he didn’t find it out either, we’ll have to go back again.
Lingzi, hurry up and have sothing to fill your stomach, tomorrow I will take you back to the hospital for another check-up.”
It was easy for Mother Zhao to say, but Eldest Sister-in-law Xu had no appetite at all; the sll of the pork alone made her want to vomit.
Xu Ying, though she had never been pregnant, had taken care of pregnant won in the future, and she understood all too well the feeling of being unable to stomach anything.
“Sister-in-law, is there anything specific you want to eat? I’ll take you out and buy sothing.”
Hearing this, Mother Zhao quickly interjected, “Why spend money eating out? Lingzi, what do you want to eat? Tell Mom, and I’ll make it for you.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu shook her head, she had no appetite at all upon slling the pork.
Xu Ying was worried. What if the child in her sister-in-law’s belly got hungry without eating?
“I’ll go out for a walk and see if I can buy so fruit or sothing sweet.” After saying this, she got up and left.
Mother Zhao was surprised at this scene, which was completely different from how her daughter had previously described things. She looked at her daughter with a playful squint, “Is your little aunt really that good to you?”
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu grinned, “Didn’t I tell you last ti? My little aunt has beco sensible now. She’s nicer to and even more filial to my in-laws.
So, you see, there’s no need to worry; I’m living a good life at my in-laws’!”
Mother Zhao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; they say for thousands of miles the mother worries about her child. With her daughter married off so far away, her heart was always filled with fear that her daughter might be mistreated by her in-laws. Now, seeing that her daughter’s little aunt was so good to her, she felt reassured.
“Kindness begets kindness; you should treat others well if they are good to you, do you hear ?” Mother Zhao looked at her daughter and imparted her wisdom.
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu hurriedly nodded her agreent.
Xu Ying went out briefly but only wandered around outside for a short while before she ca back with seasonal fruits taken from her space.
She brought quite a lot, carrying big and small bags: winter dates, pears, apples, and even peaches and grapes — all premium quality from her space, beautiful and sweet.
“Sister-in-law, see if there’s anything you fancy.” Xu Ying placed a heap of fruits on the table.
Zhao Shufeng’s eyes widened with shock, “So many fruits, that must have cost quite a bit of money.”
Plus, these fruits aren’t easy to co by.
His sister is really living the good life.
Mother Zhao was even more astonished, “You girl are too honest. Couldn’t you have just bought a little less? Why buy so much? Even if your sister-in-law is precious, she doesn’t need to eat that many.”
What a family.
Xu Ying smiled and didn’t mind at all, “As long as my sister-in-law likes it, that’s good. See which one you want to eat.”
Seeing Xu Ying’s intention to wash the fruits for her daughter, Mother Zhao felt a pang of sympathy, “I can wash them later. You better eat quickly, don’t go hungry.”
The daughter of her in-laws was soone else’s treasured child too; she couldn’t let her own daughter keep ordering soone else’s child around.
This girl was just too kind.
Eldest Sister-in-law Xu, slling the pork scent in the air dissipate a lot, finally found so appetite and pointed at the grapes and winter jujubes, “Mom, I want to eat these.”
Mother Zhao indulged her with a loving face, “Alright, alright, alright.”
The heart is won over by reciprocation; with Xu Ying being so good to her daughter, Mother Zhao’s heart was full of touched feelings.
Mr. Zhao felt the sa, waving Mother Zhao over, “Whatever else we have that’s delicious, let’s get it out quickly and let Yingying have so.”
Mother Zhao thought for a mont; she still had two bottles of Malt Milk Essence in her cabinet, so peach crisps, and a few bottles of at sauce from the at factory.
She hurried back to the room, emptying the cabinet of its items, “Yingying, eat all of these. The kids at my ho are all grown up and don’t need them.”
Yang Shufeng, seeing this, suddenly pulled a sour face. He was even younger than Xu Ying; what about him? Didn’t he deserve to eat too?
Xu Ying, feeling Mother Zhao’s enthusiasm, also felt ward, “Aunt, it’s not necessary. We have these at ho too. Leave them for Shufeng to eat.”
Once Yang Shufeng heard her say this, he suddenly looked awkward and shook his head, “I’m a young man; what do I need these for? It’s the girls who should be pampered. Take them back and enjoy them yourself.”
“Oh, quite the tsundere,” Xu Ying thought to herself.
“Well, I’ll take a few bottles of at sauce. I haven’t tried the at sauce from the at factory before!” Xu Ying wanted to taste it, ideally to co up with a good money-making idea.
Mother Zhao smiled and agreed, “Okay, Aunt will pack them up for you.”
After dinner, Mother Zhao took her to the room, “You’ll stay here tonight. Your sister-in-law will be with in one room; it’s been too long since we’ve caught up, and I want to chat.”
Xu Ying understood and nodded.
Seeing her so considerate made Mother Zhao even happier, oh my, no wonder her daughter-in-law’s mother treasures this girl so much.
If she were her daughter, she would be willing to treat her like a treasure too.
Pretty, sensible, and with strong work capability.
As Mother Zhao prepared to leave, Xu Ying asked, “Aunt, do you know a girl nad Cheng Yinglan?”
Mother Zhao found the na sowhat familiar but couldn’t recall it at the mont.
She shook her head, “I don’t know her. Is she from our compound?”
“No, but she’s from the sa county,” Xu Ying inquired, simply trying her luck, not too disappointed when Mother Zhao didn’t recognize the na.
Mother Zhao left the room, but the na stayed in her mind.
Suddenly, it clicked in her brain. She thought of it and wanted to rush to Xu Ying’s room to tell her, only to find the lights out, so she decided it could wait until the next day.
