The gentle big sister from the past had returned. That wasn't right either. His big sister had become even gentler than before she was disfigured. Her words were also warm.
How nice!
Ye Qingfeng hurriedly raised his hand to wipe his tears. He felt quite embarrassed to cry at such an old age.
When he raised his hand, Ye Qingyu saw the wound on his hand and couldn't help but grab it with heartache. Seeing that it was covered in wounds from cutting grass and the fresh small scratches, she couldn't help but ask with heartache,
"Does it hurt a lot? When I recover, I'll go cut the grass. You rest at home."
"…No, it doesn't hurt." Ye Qingfeng blushed slightly when his sister held his hand and asked him so gently. He quickly retracted his hand in embarrassment.
"Big sister, I'll go get you some rice. Go wait in the room."
After saying that, Ye Qingfeng darted out like a monkey. He was so fast that it was as if a wolf was chasing him.
Ye Qingyu looked at his back and couldn't help but smile. She felt that her second younger brother was very cute.
She did not fight with him. Instead, she took this opportunity to turn around and go to the central room to visit her sick grandfather.
-
"Grandpa." Ye Qingyu came to the bed and looked at the thin and lifeless old man on the bed. She didn't know if it was because of the original owner's influence or because she was emotional, but her nose stung and her eyes immediately turned red.
"Qingyu, you're awake? That's great!" When Grandpa Ye saw his eldest granddaughter, his originally dim eyes immediately lit up. There were tears in his eyes as he said angrily and anxiously.
"You silly girl, how can you jump into the river and court death?! You're making your grandfather's heart ache! It's all my fault for being incompetent. Not only did I cause the incident at the tofu shop back then, but I also became a burden to you all.
"If we didn't treat me and spend all the family's money, we wouldn't be too poor to treat your face so that you couldn't get married, let alone let our family live such a hard life… It's all my fault! It's all my fault!"
"Grandpa, don't say that! You're the backbone of the family. With you around, we'll be at ease!" Ye Qingyu hurriedly held her grandfather's hand and said sincerely.
"Grandpa, I wasn't in my right mind these few years. I was wrong and have always blamed the heavens for what happened! I figured it out after surviving this calamity. Liu Junsheng isn't a good person and isn't worth my attention.
Although I'm disfigured, I can read and embroider. No matter what, I can help the family earn money and help the family live a better life. When our family gets better and I really can't get married, I'll find a poor boy who doesn't mind my looks as your grandson-in-law. Grandpa, what do you think?"
Ye Qingyu said that purely to make her grandfather happy. She was not anxious at all about getting married.
However, it was also very embarrassing for a woman during this time to not get married after turning 18.
Moreover, with this body, she was about to turn 19 years old and become an ugly old girl. Although her family did not say anything, they were anxious about her marriage and their hearts ached.
"Good, good, good!" When Grandpa Ye heard his granddaughter's determination, tears welled up in his eyes. He repeatedly said "good" excitedly, and a dazzling light appeared on his pale face as he held Ye Qingyu's hand tightly.
Ye Qingyu also smiled and secretly took her grandfather's pulse. She realized that her grandfather's body was weak and his internal organs were injured. His pulse was also blocked. He must not have recovered fully after being caned in the past. After that incident, he was angry and could not recuperate well. His condition became even worse.
She knew of a few old prescriptions. One of them could treat her grandfather's illness, but she didn't have money for it now…
