Chapter 899 The ignorant young man
Tao Hongying felt uncomfortable when she thought about it. She drank two glasses of water in one breath, then hugged her mother-in-law's arm and said, "Mom, what should I do? This girl is so pitiful and distressing! Can we think of a way to help? Her?"
Old Mrs. Li also fell silent.
Suddenly she remembered that her husband had just passed away and she was raising four children by herself.
At that time, she was just like this girl. She had done nothing wrong but had a miserable life, but a lot of people were pointing fingers at her.
Everywhere she went, people avoided her, as if she was some kind of dirty thing.
If someone can't see it, give her a hand, and there will immediately be rumors that she is seducing others...
Over time, she became fierce, with a cold face every day, unwilling to accept the kindness of others, because she was afraid of hurting others.
I would rather suffer and be burdened, with tears flowing down my stomach.
But at that time, she was already in her thirties and had four sons by her side.
But this coral girl is still young.
I'm afraid I will suffer even more pain. If I don't pay attention, my whole life may be ruined...
“If it’s true as you said, even if this girl has no connection with Jiayi, our family will still help.” Mrs. Li sighed and responded.
Tao Hongying immediately became happy and asked: "Mom, after we talked it over, this girl finally agreed to accept some simple daily necessities.
"Besides, this girl is still sick. I want to divide the medicine pills that Fu Niu'er brought us into two to treat colds and colds. Do you think that's okay?"
“Just watch the arrangements,” Mrs. Li said without stopping her daughter-in-law from making arrangements. “Since you know this girl is going to be strong, you should pay more attention.”
"I know, mother." Tao Hongying nodded, "On the way just now, Xia Qing told me that this girl's house was burned to the ground, and her relatives and friends were all hiding.
"She usually eats in the wounded barracks and is not hungry, but the other women don't have any necessities. I am going to prepare some cheap and practical things for her."
“Go.” Mrs. Li agreed, and Tao Hongying got up and went out.
Hearing this, Wenjuan and others felt that the coral girl was pitiful and had nothing to do, so they also followed Tao Hongying to help.
When Mrs. Wen saw that the room was quiet, she said to Mrs. Li: "Auntie, I see that the coral girl doesn't seem to be completely heartless about family justice.
“It’s just that she is too strong, and she is afraid that her reputation will harm her family, and she is also afraid that people will say that she is taking advantage of her kindness.
"As for Jiayi... I think he is also a little tempted, but he is just a stupid young boy who wants to be nice to other girls, but he doesn't know how to do it.
“Xia Qing heard from the women in the camp that when the girl was recovering from her injuries, Jiayi hired an older woman to take care of her, and later gave her money to buy food and supplements, but the girl refused to take it.
"Because outsiders gossip a lot, he is also afraid that if the girl doesn't like him, it will ruin her reputation.
“If both sides avoid it, it doesn’t mean they are alienated…”
Mrs. Li's eyes lit up when she heard this. She grabbed Mrs. Wen's hand and asked in surprise, "You mean, Jia Yi has become enlightened and is interested in this coral girl?"
Mrs. Wen smiled and nodded, "This is also my guess, but it should be close to ten.
“Auntie, let’s try it out, for example, send the things to the military camp and ask Jiayi to deliver them to the coral girl.
"Getting married is a lifelong event. It takes two children to have more contact and understand each other's temper and conduct before they can make a decision."
"Yes, what you said makes sense." Old Mrs. Li slapped her thigh, "That's it! I'm going to find Hongying. She has a bad temper, so don't just send the things over after preparing them!"
After saying that, she stood up to leave, but Mrs. Wen couldn't help but joked, "Auntie, do you really not mind that this girl is an orphan? And there are also rumors that she is arrogant..." Mrs. Li blamed Wen for patting her. The lady laughed and scolded: "Forget it if others say it, you are a talented woman who has read a lot of books, you can't be so stupid.
“What’s wrong with the orphan girl? Our family used to be a runaway family, and they were driven around like dogs by others. We all came from a miserable background, and no one is nobler than the other.
“It’s even more of a joke to talk about denying relatives. When Zhensheng’s father died, some people still called me a denyer!
“It’s all farts, look at how good our family’s life is now!
“As long as the girl is a good girl and Jiayi likes her, our family will like her!”
After saying that, she walked away in a hurry, leaving Mrs. Wen rubbing her arms and laughing.
Yue Ya'er ran in from the yard. Seeing her mother's gentle smile, she asked, "Why is my mother secretly smiling?"
Mrs. Wen picked up her daughter and kissed her, "Because Mom is so happy. This life is so wonderful and happy!"
Yue Ya'er didn't understand, but she hugged her mother and smiled, showing a few white teeth...
In Hailan Army, Liu Yang and Jiayi gathered in the tent to have lunch.
Liu Yang smiled narrowly and asked: "The fourth aunt and Mrs. Wen came over this morning. What happened to Miss Hualou? When will the engagement be made?"
Jiayi frowned, slowly picked up the rice in the bowl, and replied vaguely: "I didn't say anything about the engagement."
"You didn't say it? Why didn't you say it?" Liu Yang was surprised and asked Jiayi, "I'm still waiting for you to get married and get a wife together. Why aren't you in a hurry?"
Jiayi threw down the bowl and chopsticks, "This is not something I am in a hurry for. I haven't even said a few words to Miss Coral, so why should I be anxious?"
He rolled up his sleeves irritably and added: "Furthermore, the fourth aunt said that Miss Coral is worried that her reputation will be bad, which will cause me to lose face.
“She even refused our family’s offer of help, let alone an engagement.”
Liu Yang was also worried, and after a long while he said: "That girl looks a bit stubborn, and she does have a bit of a reputation... So what should I do? That's it?
"I'm not urging you, I just think this girl is quite similar to you, and she has such energy in her. If you two get married, you will definitely live a good life in the future."
Jiayi recalled that day when the coral girl was covered in blood and standing on the boat, as bright as a flower blooming in the fire.
His heart suddenly beat a little fast. He quickly picked up the bowls and chopsticks and said, "Let's eat first. My grandma is here. She must have some ideas. I'll ask when I go back in the evening!"
Liu Yang couldn't help it, and it was indeed not a matter of urgency.
The two of them had eaten and were just about to patrol the camp when soldiers came in with two packages.
Jiayi was surprised and felt a little embarrassed after asking.
Liu Yang laughed and pushed him out, "Hurry up to the wounded barracks and deliver it to Miss Coral. This is definitely an opportunity created by grandma for you!"
Jiayi turned around and wanted to enter the tent.
Liu Yang refused to live or die, and he was helpless by his family's obligations. He shouted: "I want to change my clothes, and I was covered in sand during training!"
Liu Yang laughed and then let him go.
Soon, Jiayi, who had changed into clean clothes and pants, carried two packages and went to the wounded barracks.
As a result, as soon as he entered the wounded barracks, he saw several people gathered around a tent to watch the excitement and point.
There was a lot of noise in the tent, as if someone was yelling...
