Chapter 132 You don’t believe me
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Gu Jing. He's been following me all along. Isn't he your confidant? Isn't he the spy you sent to keep an eye on me?"
Su Yiran looked at Gu Yanli, becoming more and more agitated as she spoke. After saying a lot, she took a deep breath to calm herself down. "Ayan, I'm very tired. You know what this is like, so please don't ask me anymore."
She didn't have the energy to deal with it repeatedly.
"You do not trust me."
Gu Yanli held Su Yiran's hand and said, "Yiyi, you don't believe me. I've said before that I don't mind you making friends."
"I do not have."
Su Yiran tried to pull her hand away, but the other person was holding it tightly, and she didn't dare to use force, for fear of aggravating his wound.
"Ayan, I really didn't see him. If I run into him again next time, I'll definitely say hello to him and tell you, okay?"
Su Yiran said softly, "Ayan, I went to see my father today. The doctor said his condition hasn't improved. I'm not in a good mood, and I want to rest. Can we talk about it tomorrow?"
Gu Yanli met her gaze, his heart clenched, and he slowly released her hand.
"I knew Ah Yan... she cares about me the most. You should get some rest too."
Su Yiran smiled at him and lay down on the bed in front of him.
Gu Yanli turned and left the room.
The next few days.
Su Yiran and Gu Yanli almost never meet.
When Su Yiran woke up in the morning, Gu Yanli was already up. When she returned in the evening, he was still working in his study.
After a few days of rest, He Rui was much better. It was the weekend, and he insisted that Su Yiran accompany him to play.
"Auntie, you promised me that you would take me out to play once I got better. I'm all better now, so you can't go back on your word, okay?"
"I won't go back on my word."
Su Yiran gently rubbed He Rui's head. For the two-day weekend, she had specially chosen a farm in the suburbs.
He Rui grew up in luxury and had never seen natural chickens, ducks, fish, or crops. Now that he sees them, he finds everything strange and wonderful.
There are many children at the farm who are the same age as He Rui, and these children play together all day long.
We would go to the greenhouse to pick strawberries, pick vegetables in the fields, and sometimes chase after the free-range chickens and ducks, causing a lot of chaos.
Su Yiran stayed at a local farmer's home and chatted with the old woman.
"You look so young, yet you have such a big child."
The old woman brewed a bowl of local tea for Su Yiran. The tea was fragrant and rich, and it was all grown locally.
The old lady has a daughter and a son. Her son has twins. The couple works away from home, leaving their children with the old lady. They come back to visit every few days.
The old woman's daughter married far away and I heard she just gave birth to a daughter. Her in-laws aren't treating her very well, and she's saying she wants a divorce and to come back.
The old woman's eyes would well up with tears whenever she mentioned this.
The woman felt terrible when she saw the elderly woman in her seventies shed tears in front of her.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away.
For a woman who marries far away, if her husband's family is good, there's nothing to worry about. But if her husband's family is not good, even if her own family wants to support her, the distance between the two places will make her less assertive.
"Grandma, that's my nephew."
Su Yiran took a sip of tea. "It's really good, so fragrant."
"If you like to drink it, I'll bring some back for you when you go back. It's homegrown, not worth much, not as good as expensive tea from outside."
"Who said that? I think this tastes better than anything I've ever had."
"As long as you like it."
The old woman smiled and said, "Your son and your father went out to play. Aren't you going with them?"
Son's father?
Upon hearing this, Su Yiran offered no further explanation.
As people get older, they tend to forget things.
This is not important, and there's no need to explain it further.
Following He Rui was Gu Jing.
The people at the farm are simple and honest, but He Rui is young and she's worried about him not having anyone with him.
"I...cough..."
Su Yiran suddenly coughed a few times.
The old woman reached out and felt her forehead, then patted her shoulder. "You silly child, you're drinking tea even with a fever!"
The old woman took the teacup away from her and poured her a glass of warm water. "Do you have any medicine? Have you taken your medicine?"
"I have."
Su Yiran looked at the old woman, a smile playing on her lips. She took a fever reducer from her bag and gave it to her with warm water.
Before leaving the house, she felt a little dizzy. She had planned to lie down for a while, but she didn't want to spoil He Rui's mood, so she prepared her medicine and went out.
"No wonder you don't want to go out. You're sick, you should be resting. Why are you still out? Does your husband know?"
The old woman muttered to herself, "She doesn't seem to know anything; she's having a great time playing with the child."
Su Yiran said, "It's my fault for not saying it. The children finally get to come out and have some fun, so there's no need to tell them these things. I'm in good health; I'll just take some medicine and I'll be fine."
"It's up to you. You're in charge of your own body."
The old woman didn't interfere much and took out the vegetables to pick.
Su Yiran also helped, and she was quite skilled at it.
Looking at the vegetables she had picked, the old woman couldn't help but praise, "I thought you city people wouldn't know how to cook this, but it turned out quite well."
Su Yiran was taken aback.
She hadn't picked these vegetables in a long time.
When she was little, her family grew some of these plants, and whenever she saw her parents picking them, she would go over and join in the fun.
She didn't even notice unless the old woman said anything.
She actually remembered.
“My son and his wife live in the city and always like to eat out. It’s expensive and not clean. Every time I ask them to cook for themselves, they say they’re too busy and don’t have time.”
The old woman asked, "Girl, are you all very busy in the city and don't have time to cook for yourselves?"
"..."
Su Yiran didn't know what to say for a moment.
The old woman didn't dwell on her answer and continued talking about other things.
night.
The old woman's daughter returned with her newborn daughter.
Carrying large and small bags, they got off the bus at the village entrance, the baby in their arms still crying.
Su Yiran was taking a walk after dinner when she happened to run into them.
She helped her carry her luggage and arrived at the old woman's house, only to find out that this was the old woman's daughter.
She hadn't even finished her postpartum confinement period when she came all the way back; it broke her heart to see her like that.
But this is someone else's family matter, and it's none of her business to worry about it.
He Rui idolizes Gu Jing and keeps pestering him to play with him.
Seeing that it was getting late, Su Yiran waved to He Rui, "Rui, it's time to go back to sleep."
"Okay, Auntie."
He Rui agreed and followed her back.
He Rui was very well-behaved; after taking a bath, he went to bed and fell asleep.
After playing all day, he was tired and fell asleep in no time.
They lived on the third floor, while the old lady and her family lived on the second floor. The soundproofing was poor, and she could faintly hear the children crying.
It lasted for a long time.
Fortunately, they were eventually appeased.
Su Yiran took her medicine and wanted to lie down and take a nap, but she felt depressed and couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did, so she got up and went to the hanging chair on the balcony.
