A soft-waisted educated youth has sex with a loyal dog and a rough guy in the 1960s

Chapter 1267 Not so good

This farce, initiated by Granny Yang, ultimately ended with Ma Hongguo and Ma Jianshe apologizing and pleading.

If it weren't for He Hongjin and the villagers supporting him, Ma Hongguo probably would have knelt down on the spot.

In rural society, while villagers may openly express their sympathy, who among them doesn't secretly laugh at the Ma family?

He Hongjin dispersed the crowd.

Ma Hongguo had just finished pleading with Li Dachui to settle things, then his eyes reddened, and he slapped his face repeatedly before pleading with He Hongjin again:
"Hongjin, you know the old woman in my house. This matter has become so complicated... I'm too ashamed to go see Xiao Liu and his wife again. I just beg you to help me and pass on a message to them, asking them not to take it to heart!"

He Hongjin knew about the Ma family's situation, and although he was unhappy about it, he couldn't say anything on the surface.

He simply waved his hand and said:
"Alright, the kids are much more easygoing than we are. You should go back now! Hurry up and eat lunch so it won't affect your work in the fields this afternoon."

Ma Hongguo was moved to tears and nodded repeatedly.

After Li Dachui finished greeting He Hongjin, got on his bicycle and rode ahead with Ma Jianshe, Ma Hongguo headed home.

The old man, hunched over, walked back under the blazing sun.

Considering what has happened these past two days, watching from afar, one feels both distressed and sorry for the people involved.

He Hongjin withdrew his gaze, shook his head, put his hands behind his back, sighed, and went into the house.
"How are you? Is the person in the explosives okay?"

Lu Miao was very easygoing about this matter; what could possibly happen to her?

The only downside is that I've been coughing ever since I got back yesterday.

When her throat was sore, she had little appetite.

I only had some rice porridge when I got up this morning.

Just now, Tian Guihua came in and told her to eat first, but she shook her head and couldn't muster any enthusiasm.

He Hongjin muttered:

"Other people can't even get a drop of meat all year round, but you're a lucky guy, you can't even eat big fish and meat."

Chen Guifen clicked her tongue and glared at him, then nudged him with her elbow.
"What are you saying? The child isn't eating because he's not feeling well."

"Humph……"

"If you don't have a good appetite, try a different flavor. Eat something light for the next couple of days. You have to eat something, you can't skip it."

Chen Guifen sat down next to Lu Miao and patted his hand to comfort him.

Although it's not yet very hot this season, it's currently midday when the sun is at its strongest.

Even sitting indoors, one can feel a sense of restlessness.

But Lu Miao's hands were still icy cold to the touch, which made Chen Guifen even more worried.

He Hongjin just snorted and turned his face away.

When Chen Guifen spoke to Lu Miao, he turned his head and glanced at Lu Miao's expression.

Lu Miao nodded with a smile:

"I know, Auntie. I'm just not that hungry right now... I knew the inspection team was coming this morning, and I thought they would stay for lunch, so I specially asked my second sister-in-law to kill a chicken. It's lunchtime now, so Uncle and Auntie, please eat together here!"

Chen Guifen shook her head, and He Hongjin spoke first:

"Let's not eat here today. Your aunt had already prepared sweet potatoes at home when we arrived. It's fine if she didn't cook them, but in this hot weather, they'll go bad if we don't eat them."

Lu Miao nodded gently and told Fu Jingyou to get a bowl so they could take some of the chicken her second sister-in-law had cooked and eat it.

Fu Jingyou did as instructed, and He Hongjin did not stop him.

But just before leaving, He Hongjin turned around and said:

"Don't take the Ma family's affairs to heart. Everyone in the village knows that Jianshe's mother is unreasonable. Just look at Jianshe and his father's attitudes, and ignore everything else."

Lu Miao smiled gently:

"Uncle, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

He Hongjin nodded with his hands behind his back.

Fu Jingyou carried a bowl of oily stir-fried chicken and delivered it to them at the door.

Fu Jingyou handed over the bowl of stir-fried chicken and waved it over:

"Minrui, come here."

"What are you doing, Uncle?"

He emerged from the kitchen with keen insight. Fu Jingyou patted his head and said:

"You can go back to your parents' house for lunch today."

"Hmm~ No way!"

He moved his foot back rather reluctantly.

Fu Jingyou quickly grabbed his little elbow and said:
"Your uncle packed a chicken leg for you separately. Go back and eat this meal, then come back this afternoon. Your uncle will give you a haircut then."

Fu Jingyou handed the bowl of stir-fried chicken to Chen Guifen.

He immediately glanced at his mother-in-law's hand.

Seeing that there was indeed half a chicken leg sticking out from the edge of the bowl, Minru pouted and reluctantly let Chen Guifen lead him down the slope in front of the door.

Lu Miao asked only after the person had walked away:

"It's so hot outside, why do you insist on going back to eat?"

Fu Jingyou looked away from her, took her hand with one hand, patted Minjie's head with the other, and led them both to the kitchen.
"My sister-in-law is not doing well."

"Huh? What?"

Lu Miao stared at Fu Jingyou in surprise.

Although it was unbelievable, considering his insistence on letting Minrui go back, Lu Miao vaguely guessed what was going on.

Lu Miao had heard that Zhao Lanxiang was ill before, but he never expected it to be so serious.

On the small table by the back door of the kitchen, Tian Guihua had already set out the food, dishes, and chopsticks.

Lu Miao, holding a bowl of rice, picked up the last chicken leg from the large bowl and gave it to Minjie.

Minjie took the chicken leg and said:
"Thank you, Auntie!"

"Sweetie, time to eat~"

Lu Miao laughed and picked up a chicken wing tip for herself, eating it slowly.

Tian Guihua, who was standing nearby, shook her head helplessly as she watched this scene.

Just now, Zhao Lanxiang was mentioned, and Lu Miao chatted about it for a bit at the dinner table:
"Didn't you see a doctor? What did the doctor say?"

Fu Jingyou said:

"They said they had found a barefoot doctor from the village to come and see him several times."

Fu Jingyou didn't know anything else either.

Lu Miao was still sick at home, so He Hongjin and Chen Guifen usually came over, and he rarely went to the He family's house.

Today, he made a trip there because Captain Li needed to notarize the documents for the client.

I didn't notice it at first.

After sitting in the He family's courtyard for a while, Fu Jingyou noticed something amiss in the main house. He asked Chen Guifen privately and found out what was going on.

Lu Miao pondered for a moment and said:
"The barefoot doctors in the village can only treat minor ailments like headaches and fevers; they can't handle anything more complicated. If there's no improvement, you should be taken to a proper hospital; you can't delay..."

If any problems arise, early detection and treatment are crucial.

If we drag this out, it might really cause a delay.

Fu Jingyou nodded slightly, took a bite of rice, and said:

"I'll talk to my aunt and uncle about it later."

"Ah."

Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou's relationship with Brother He and his wife had soured, and they originally didn't plan to have any further involvement.

But the situation is special, and whether they contribute money or effort, they have to step forward.

The old man is soft-hearted.

Even if Uncle and Aunt were still angry with Brother He and Zhao Lanxiang, with these past few years of buffer time, their anger would probably have worn off long ago.

If anything happens to Zhao Lanxiang, Brother He's life will be difficult in the future. His uncle and aunt may not say anything on the surface, but they will definitely still be worried about her.

Both elders are quite old.
I don't need them to help me with anything else; I just need to take good care of my health in my daily life.

As for the rest, we should try not to cause them any trouble.
