C406 Strenuously Probing
"To the restaurant in town. I want to treat Aunt Qiong to a good meal." Su Cuiyun ordered her bodyguards to take them to the town.
"No need, no need." Aunt Qiong waved her hands repeatedly. Facing such a passionate Su Cuiyun, it was really hard for her to adapt for the moment. Could distance really produce beauty? She no longer worked at Mu Family, but was instead treated well by Su Cuiyun?
"Yes, Aunt Qiong has worked hard at Mu Family for so many years. As the owner, I should have done my duty as the host." Su Cuiyun said with a faint smile, her eyes twinkling.
"How can I accept this." "Aunt Qiong only felt that it wasn't good to be like this. She had the feeling that she was going to eat someone until their mouth turned soft and their hands were short." "No, if you have anything to say to me, then just say it. I won't be eating."
"Then you're not giving me any face." Su Cuiyun pretended to be angry as she said.
While they were talking, the car had already arrived at the entrance of the restaurant. Aunt Qiong followed her into the restaurant.
The bodyguard was waiting outside the door. Su Cuiyun brought Aunt Qiong into the private room and ordered a few dishes.
After personally pouring Aunt Qiong a cup of tea with green leaves floating on it, Su Cuiyun started to talk about her worries.
"Aunt Qiong, you have been in the Mu Family for so many years. I really admire you from the bottom of my heart. " Su Cuiyun muttered to herself.
"You …" Aunt Qiong looked at her doubtfully. She felt a chill run down her spine. Before she got on the car, she suspected that Su Cuiyun had changed her nature, but now she felt more and more uneasy.
According to common sense, there was probably a problem with this sudden change.
"Xiaoyou fainted today, so why don't you give her the plum blossoms? I'm a bit ashamed of being a mother, so my cooking is not as good as yours." Su Cuiyun asked tentatively.
"Car sickness?" Aunt Qiong's expression changed slightly. She immediately thought back to what her relatives at the pharmacy had said. Mu Xiaoyou was clearly pregnant. Did Su Cuiyun think she was seasick?
"Yeah, she's always been good at car sickness, and so is this kid. It's so hot today, and she even went to a pharmacy in town to buy medicine for her classmates." My daughter is innocent and naive, and is being used as a errand boy. She doesn't notice at all. " Su Cuiyun shook her head helplessly. Her words sounded rather similar.
"Buy medicine for your classmates?" Unconsciously, Aunt Qiong heard the words of her relatives.
Mu Xiaoyou vomited in their shop. According to her family's many years of medical experience, she definitely could not have seen wrongly.
However, Su Cuiyun's main intention in treating her to a meal was probably to shut her up.
"Oh …" Aunt Qiong responded with a sudden realization, "Actually, you don't have to spend this money on it. It's not a big deal to eat a few plums."
Su Cuiyun raised her eyebrows. She didn't know if Aunt Qiong really believed this reason or if it was just to fawn on her.
The dishes were served. There was a simple plate of stir-fried hollow vegetables, a stack of Red Braised Meat and a plate of cucumbers. Su Cuiyun replied with a polite smile, "The weather is too hot. It's good to have something light."
Aunt Qiong did not touch her chopsticks. "I only had lunch earlier. I really can't eat anymore."
Su Cuiyun didn't force her to eat it. She only faintly opened her mouth and asked, "Aunt Qiong, I seem to recall that you have a relative who works at that pharmacy. I just want to ask, what kind of medicine did my family's Quiet And Steadfast buy for our classmates?"
"How should I know?" Aunt Qiong quickly reacted. Su Cuiyun was checking to see how much she knew. "Today, I went to that shop and bought two boxes of Patchouli Vitality Water. After I bought them, I left."
Su Cuiyun looked at her doubtfully. It would be a good thing if Aunt Qiong didn't know that Mu Xiaoyou was pregnant. But, did she really not know?
"Sigh, I'm just asking casually. This girl has grown up and doesn't talk about things with her family. I'm worried that she might have made some bad friends. You need someone else to help you buy a medicine for her. What kind of parents must bring up a child like her? " Su Cuiyun clicked her tongue twice and unconsciously reprimanded the others.
"I'm helping my sister-in-law with her work. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first." Aunt Qiong stood up and stopped chatting with Su Cuiyun.
"I'll take you there." Su Cuiyun stood up as well. Judging from her attitude, she could be considered quite calm. Perhaps it was just a coincidence that she was talking to him.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. There's a motorcycle in town. It'll only cost a few dollars." Aunt Qiong really couldn't afford to touch Su Cuiyun's car.
After sending Aunt Qiong off, Su Cuiyun bagged the remaining dishes on the table and took them back with her. Since Aunt Qiong said she didn't know, then she would pretend that she didn't. If anything happened in the future, she would just push the blame onto her.
After being locked up by her for a day, Mu Xiaoyou had completely lost all her strength.
"Mom, I'll listen to you. I'll kick this kid out. I'm so hungry. " After being starved for a day, Mu Xiaoyou no longer had the strength to struggle against Su Cuiyun. She was hungry and wanted to go to the bathroom. At this moment, she couldn't even remember the love between her and Zhan Yufei. All that was left was to face reality.
"Mom, open the door." Mu Xiaoyou's voice had turned hoarse. She was still young and didn't usually suffer much, so she couldn't bear it after just a short while.
Su Cuiyun softened her heart and took the key to open the door for her. After helping her to the toilet, he instructed Little Chen to cook for her.
"You You, listen to your mother. It's such a good day at home, but do you know how much it hurts to have a baby? " Su Cuiyun was a kind and patient person.
"I know, I don't want to suffer anymore. "If you don't want this child, then don't. I'm still so young, so it would be embarrassing if I told others." Mu Xiaoyou sobbed and washed her face with cold water. It had only been a day of torture, but it had already destroyed her will.
"That's right, You Huan is my mother's flesh and blood. Is it not good for You You to always be my mother's flesh and blood?" Su Cuiyun helped her to rub the soap from her hands. Mu Xiaoyou felt some comfort in her heart. It was fine as long as she was willing to listen to her.
Little Chen cooked warm porridge for Mu Xiaoyou. After she was done, she went to clean the windows at home, especially leaving some space for Su Cuiyun and Mu Xiaoyou.
"..."
At night, the cicadas' cicadas' cicadas' cicadas' cicadas' cicadas' cicadas' cicadas' died away, replaced by the croaking of frogs. At the foot of the mountain, the farmers' lights had lit up early. The night was not as hot as during the day, and harvesting grain became a job during the night. Since Aunt Qiong was helping her sister-in-law with her work, she naturally didn't dare to slight her. If you grind until the harvest time, it will be rainy season. If you don't dry the grains, you might get mildewed.
With the light from the farmhouse, there was light at night, and the night was not as hot as during the day, so it was hard for people to work in the heat.
Aunt Qiong was in charge of harvesting rice, and large beads of sweat dripped into the ground.
"I'm looking for Aunt Qiong." It was a cold and familiar voice, yet she was wearing a mask and wore it so tightly that no one could recognize her.
"Sister-in-law QiuQiong, I'm looking for you." Aunt Qiong's sister-in-law called out.
Most of the people at the foot of the mountain were relatives of the neighbors, so they were naturally quite familiar with the place.
"Sigh." Aunt Qiong straightforwardly answered and threw the cut grain onto the ground. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and walked to the girl with the mask on. She looked at her with doubt in her eyes.
Mu Qingqing took off her mask and looked at Aunt Qiong, who had been bringing her along since she was young. Her eyes seemed to be slightly moved.
She really wanted to see Aunt Qiong.
"Qingqing …" Aunt Qiong took off her bamboo hat and looked at Mu Qingqing in surprise. Little girl, didn't you already … "
Mu Qingqing's grave was already repaired, so why would she appear here?
Aunt Qiong stretched out her hand and touched Mu Qingqing's stomach. It was slightly hard, but it proved that she had a complete physical body and was not dreaming.
"Aunt Qiong, I'm not dead. They buried an empty coffin." Mu Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled, pulling Aunt Qiong's hand.
"They, why did they do this?" Aunt Qiong's heart was even more agitated. Since Mu Qingqing did not die, there was no reason for Mu Family to hold a funeral for her.
"Aunt Qiong, come with me. There's someone helping you out over there." Mu Qingqing pouted, gesturing for her to look behind her.
He didn't know when it happened, but there were a few strong men in the gang behind him, and they were very fast in harvesting the rice.
"Eh, I didn't invite that many people!" Aunt Qiong's sister-in-law panicked. How could she have so much money to give to these people?
"No money!" It's free! " Mu Qingqing added.
"Then, how can I be embarrassed?" Aunt Qiong's sister-in-law wiped the sweat from her forehead shyly. She was still very happy. With so many people helping her to cut the rice for free, it would soon be done.
Since the work behind her had been arranged, Aunt Qiong could naturally follow Mu Qingqing.
After getting on the fiery red sports car, Aunt Qiong wiped her hands on her peasant pants in embarrassment. "Little girl, I think it's better if I get off. This car must be very expensive."
"There's no need for that. Aunt Qiong, you have watched me grow up and helped me so much. If the car is dirty, you can just wash it once." No matter what clothes Aunt Qiong wore, in my heart, it was always that kind and beautiful Aunt Qiong. " Mu Qingqing stepped on the gas pedal, which wasn't very fast, but brought Aunt Qiong to a farmhouse to enjoy.
"Little girl, did you eat honey? Your mouth is so sweet." Aunt Qiong looked at her reproachfully, but in her heart, she was happy. That modesty had been resolved by Mu Qingqing.2
"Have you been hiding in your house this year?" Aunt Qiong asked curiously.
"No, they abandoned me." She had nothing to hide from Aunt Qiong.
"Your father and your grandfather both valued you greatly since you were young. How could they be willing to abandon you?" Aunt Qiong recalled that Mu Anren and Mu Xiutan both liked their eldest daughter a little more. She also knew the rules of Mu Family. Logically speaking, Mu Qingqing would not be abandoned by Mu Family.
"Being abandoned is being abandoned. Aunt Qiong, do you remember how I left the country?" Mu Qingqing threw the question to Aunt Qiong, asking her to slowly reminisce about the past.
It was naturally to accompany Mu Xiaoyou to go abroad to participate in the piano competition, and she never came back.
"I lost my memory and they took my passport and got a driver to take me to a strange and remote place. After entering that village, I would never be able to get out. In order to escape, I accidentally ran into a forbidden area's forest. If it wasn't for someone who was kind enough to save me, I would already be a dried up corpse. " "Mu Qingqing explained in an ordinary tone the reason for her 'death'.
