Chapter 21 The words change as soon as they leave your mouth

“No, Big Aunt, this is what Grandma made especially for you, and I’m not hungry, I had an egg this morning.” He Yuan shook his head and refused, he wasn’t hungry at all, his stomach was full of food. If it weren’t for the fact that he had to follow her, he would have gone to show off to his friends. Looking at the noodles and egg in the bowl that were still warm, and then thinking about her stomach that wasn’t very hungry, He Wanqing felt a little bit like she couldn’t swallow.

 She didn’t know what was going on since she came back, she only ate dinner last night, but now her stomach felt full as if she had just eaten. Thinking about the two cancers she had before she died, and then thinking about her stomach that didn’t feel hungry at all, her heart sank. No way! She was reborn, could it be that lung-pancreatic cancer and stomach cancer could follow her? The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and the more panicked she became, the whiter her originally rosy face turned.

“Big aunt, what’s wrong with you, why is your face so pale?” Seeing his big aunt’s face turn white in an instant, He Yuan was startled, thinking that she was unhappy because he didn’t eat the noodles. He immediately reached out and took her hand that wasn’t holding the bowl and chopsticks and touched his stomach: “Big aunt, look, my stomach is full of food that hasn’t been digested yet.” Feeling her nephew’s warmth, He Wanqing touched his head: “Big aunt is fine, you go play for a while, I’ll eat the noodles and then we’ll go.” She carried the noodles to the bamboo chair where she sat last night, looking at the noodles in the bowl while doing mental construction: “I’m very hungry, He Wanqing, you’re very hungry, your stomach is very hungry!

” Whether it was the mental construction that worked, or her stomach was really hungry, not long after she finished speaking, her stomach growled with hunger. After realizing that she was hungry, her pale face turned red again, and her eyes welled up with tears. She bit into the poached egg while smiling at He Yuan. Her nephew was really handsome, he was indeed a member of the He family, he was definitely better than the white-eyed wolf.

Three bites and two bites, a bowl of noodles and a poached egg went down, just filling her stomach three-quarters full. She took the bowl to the well, fetched a bucket of water to wash it, washed her face again, wiped her face with oil, and sent the bowl back to the kitchen at Uncle He’s house. Then she took the cold boiled water she had just filled and went to the east field with He Yuan, who had been waiting for her. The two of them walked and greeted each other along the way. When they met someone who liked to ask questions, He Wanqing would stop and talk to them for a while, until both sides were satisfied, before continuing to the field.

“Big aunt, why did you talk so much to Third Grandma just now, didn’t you say before that she’s a gossip?” He Yuan, who was almost at the edge of the field, finally asked his question when there was no one to greet.

 “Of course, I wanted to use her mouth to spread the word. Okay, Er’dan and the others are playing over there, you go too, Big aunt will stay in the field and won’t leave.” Looking at the children playing in front of the field, He Yuan hesitated. “……. ” He really wanted to go play with his friends, but he didn’t want to break his promise to his dad. “Go, your grandma and the others are here, I’ll be fine, if I go anywhere, I’ll call you later.” Seeing the longing in his eyes, He Wanqing touched his cute face and pushed him towards the right side of the ridge: “I’ll go find your grandma and the others, go play by yourself! Remember not to go near the water.

” “I know, Big aunt.” He nodded at her back and ran quickly towards his friends on the side, forgetting everything he had just seen. Turning her head to look at her nephew, who was like a bird released from a cage, He Wanqing smiled and greeted the people working in the field. “Third uncle, you’re going to fetch water?” “Fifth aunt, you’re scattering the seeds crookedly, be careful that the captain scolds you!” “Zhang’s wife, slow down when you dig the holes, look at how scared Sister-in-law Xiufang is, she’s almost two miles away from you.” “Oh, Wanqing, didn’t you say that your wedding date has been set? Why aren’t you at home preparing for the wedding, and you’re still in the field? I think your sister-in-law is doing a good job for you, you can go home.”

 “Wanqing, I heard that you went to buy your dowry yesterday, what did you buy? You didn’t come back all day, you really worried your grandma and the others.” “That’s right, Wanqing, I heard He Cao’s mother say that she prepared two quilts, two enamel basins, and two thermoses for her, and towels and stuff, what did you buy?”

 “Fifth aunt, you’re joking, my wedding date isn’t even certain, unlike my cousin Cao, her life is stable, she has to prepare all those things.” “What? Your wedding date isn’t certain?” Fifth aunt and her workmates looked at each other, then dropped their hoes and rushed to the edge of the field in three steps. “Wanqing, tell us in detail, what’s going on? Yesterday, the Xu family was shouting everywhere, saying that you were getting married, how come overnight, the wedding date isn’t certain anymore?” On the other side, Zhang’s wife, who didn’t get an answer and wanted to say a few more words, heard this and, along with Xiufang, dropped their things and rushed over.

“Wanqing, tell us quickly, is it like the rumors, that the Xu family guy actually has someone else, but he doesn’t want to return the money to your family, so he’s deliberately forcing your family to withdraw the marriage?” “I heard that too, Wanqing, is that so?” Wu Xiufang recalled what everyone said in the other field yesterday afternoon, so she looked at He Wanqing curiously, wanting to know if it was true or not. Holding a water jug, He Wanqing’s smile instantly disappeared when she heard the questions from these people. She pretended not to know about the rumors and exclaimed: “What kind of rumors are there, I really don’t know!”

 “Fifth aunt, you know that the Xu family came to my house yesterday to set the wedding date, and you know what I said at the time. Anyway, if they don’t return the money, the tickets, and the dowry they promised, the sewing machine and the watch, then they can marry whoever they want, I’m not going to marry him.” “Wanqing, do you really not know about those rumors?” Wu Xiufang’s suspicious eyes swept over her, and when she saw her frankness, she withdrew her gaze. “I really don’t know, my uncles didn’t tell me when they came back.

Besides, I went to the county to buy my dowry yesterday, I came back late, and I haven’t had time to ask around, why don’t you tell me, Sister-in-law Xiufang?” It was also a good chance for her to see what version the rumors had become, so she could be mentally prepared. “……. ” The words “went to the county to buy dowry” made the four of them speechless for a moment. “Wanqing, aren’t there any things you like in the commune?

Why do you have to go to the county to buy them?” Zhang’s wife thought about the Xu family’s appearance and curled her lips in disdain. Seeing He Wanqing’s clueless expression, and she was still eagerly going to the county to buy her dowry, she shook her head. Thinking about the fact that her family was related to the Xu family, she didn’t mention the rumors from yesterday. After receiving a signal from Zhang’s wife, Wu Xiufang walked over and told her the rumors from yesterday.
