Chapter 129 The Unexpected Money
Su Jiuyue smiled. When she married, she didn't know her husband was mentally handicapped. When she knew it, she didn't believe that he would be cured.
However, she didn't care. She would treat whoever was good to her.
Wu Xiyuan was kind to her, so she didn't care whether he was a mentally handicapped or a normal person.
"No one knows. Maybe Xiyuan will recover when we wake up tomorrow morning."
Liu Cuihua agreed. "You're right. I shouldn't be so anxious. Let's be patient. When Xiyuan recovers, he can take the imperial competitive examination. Maybe he will become an official and you'll be the official's wife!"
Covering her lips, Su Jiuyue smiled. "Interesting. Then he must work hard. When he becomes an official, you'll be the official's mother!"
When they talked and laughed, the time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.
Then, Su Jiuyue pulled out all the silver needles from Wu Xiyuan and dressed him again.
"Xiyuan, how do you feel?"
Lying in bed, Wu Xiyuan turned over and blurred out a word, "Sleepy."
Su Jiuyue pulled up the quilt and covered it for him, gently telling him, "Take a nap first. I'll wake you up later. Don't sleep too long, or it's hard to fall asleep at night."
Wu Xiyuan answered her and fell asleep.
Seeing Wu Xiyuan asleep, Su Jiuyue left the room and closed the door.
Liu Cuihua was waiting for her at the door. As soon as she came out, Liu Cuihua stepped forward. "Did Xiyuan fall asleep?"
Su Jiuyue nodded. "Yes, he's asleep. Mom, I'm going out. Please wake him up later. Don't let him sleep too long."
"I'll." Liu Cuihua answered. Every time after acupuncture, Wu Xiyuan would feel sleepy, so they had been used to it.
"Where are you going?"
Speaking of it, Su Jiuyue felt a little embarrassed. "Mom, I met Yang Liu in the town before. She gave me some money and asked me to bring it to her mother. I've been so busy these days that I totally forgot it. Now I remember it, so I really have to fulfil my promise."
Hearing that, Liu Cuihua was also stunned. The relationship between Yang Liu and Su Jiuyue was a little awkward. She thought that if they met on the road, they would avoid each other far away.
But she didn't expect that these two people were still in contact. Liu Cuihua really couldn't figure out what these young people today was thinking.
"Yang Liu? Have you seen her? I haven't heard from her for a long time. How is she?" In fact, she didn't blame Yang Liu. If it weren't for the fact that Yang Liu was a good child, she wouldn't have been engaged to Xiyuan. However, her father was a little unreliable and treacherous. Thinking of this, Liu Cuihua was angry.
"She said she was fine. And she asked me to tell her family that there was no need to worry about her and they'd better not visit her, but I think..."
She didn't continue speaking, but Liu Cuihua kept asking, "What do you think? Is she in trouble?"
Su Jiuyue shook her head, as if hesitating whether to tell her or not.
Liu Cuihua said, "I'm your mother. You can trust me."
Biting her lower lip, Su Jiuyue raised her eyes to look at her. "Mom, you can't tell others what I've told you!"
Liu Cuihua gestured that she would keep it a secret. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
"I think Yang Liu became the concubine of Mr. Cui..."
"What? Is that true?" Liu Cuihua was surprised.
"Of course. How can I joke with you about this? It's related to her reputation." Su Jiuyue hurriedly defended herself.
Liu Cuihua sighed. "Well, I really can't tell Yang Dali about it. He is not a good man. It's hard enough for Yang Liu to be a concubine. If he knows it, he will definitely ask her for money. It's really bad luck for Yang Liu to be his daughter!"
"Each person has his life. Not everyone is as lucky as me." Su Jiuyue agreed with Liu Cuihua.
Knowing that Su Jiuyue said this to please her, Liu Cuihua was also happy. She was afraid that Su Jiuyue didn't realize that she had lived a happy life. Fortunately, Su Jiuyue knew how to show gratitude to her and was not so picky.
Liu Cuihua stretched out her index finger to nod on Su Jiuyue's forehead. "Jiuyue, you're so honeymouthed. How can I not treat you well?"
Wobbling, Su Jiuyue looked at her with a smile.
Liu Cuihua felt that her daughter-in-law was really a treasure. Although Su Jiuyue looked gentle, she really had a great ability to control people's minds.
She waved to Su Jiuyue. "Then hurry up. Go early and return early, or Xiyuan should wake up later."
Answering, Su Jiuyue went out with her small purse.
Yang Dali's house was located in the east of the village, half an hour away from her house.
Standing in front of the door, Su Jiuyue looked inside through the fence. "Is anyone home?"
After two cries, the thick curtain of the middle room was picked out, and a young woman wearing a long black coat with patches came out. "Who are you?"
Su Jiuyue recognized it was Guiniang, sister-in-law of Yang Liu.
"Madam, I'm looking for Mrs. Qian."
Guiniang knew that she was the new daughter-in-law of the Wu family, but she also knew that the relationship between the two families was not good. Therefore, she really didn't know why Su Jiuyue came here.
Although she was full of doubts, she couldn't drive Su Jiuyue out now that she was here.
"Come in." Guiniang opened the fence and invited her in.
As soon as she turned around, she shouted to the house, "Mother! Wu Xiyuan's wife is looking for you!"
In Xiayang Village, there was only one Wu family, which had a bad relationship with their family. Mrs. Qian didn't know what she was going to do.
In spite of confusion, she still came down from the Kang to welcome Su Jiuyue.
As soon as the curtain was opened, she immediately smiled. "It's you. Xiyuan's wife! What a rare visitor! Come in. Please come in!"
Su Jiuyue came to deliver the money to her and he couldn't give it to her in the yard so carelessly, so she followed her into the house.
Mrs. Qian didn't expect that after talking with them for a while, Su Jiuyue still didn't tell them what she was doing here.
Seeing this, Mrs. Qian guessed that there was something that was hard for her to say in front of her daughter-in-law.
After thinking for a while, she said to Guiniang, "Guiniang, go to add some firewood to the Kang."
Guiniang retreated from the room with a reply. At this moment, Mrs. Qian said, "Girl, let's come straight to the point. If you have anything, just tell me."
When Guiniang left, Su Jiuyue quickly took out the money from her purse and put them on the table.
The sound made Mrs. Qian stunned.
She looked at Su Jiuyue suspiciously. "Girl, what do you want?"
Su Jiuyue packed her purse, explaining, "Mrs. Qian, Yang Liu asked me to give you the money."
