After a night of sleep, Qi Mu woke up slowly. The pain in her entire body and the sunlight shining through the window made the corner of her mouth twitch.

Why does it hurt more than yesterday …

Qi Mu blinked his eyes, wanting to cry but had no tears.

She only had a pair of eyes left, and it didn't hurt.

"Mu Er is awake. How is it?" Does it hurt? "

With reddened eyes, Yang Lili pushed the door open and brought in a basin of water, placing it at the foot of the bed. She poured the towel into the water, twisted it a bit, and then squeezed it again.

"No …" "It hurts."

Qi Mu actually wanted to smile at this cheap mother of hers, but unexpectedly, the smile dragged the wound on her face, causing her to grimace in pain. She couldn't even speak properly.

This pain made Qi Mu's heart panic. She remembered that when she fell off the cliff yesterday afternoon to catch a rabbit, something had scratched her face …

Did he lose his looks?

Qi Mu felt a little bitter in his throat as his eyes suddenly dimmed.

She wasn't a person that highly valued one's looks, but she was also a woman. There was no woman that was willing to disfigure their appearances.

Looking at her daughter, Yang Lili forced a smile and quickly said:

"Mu Er …" "Doctor Fang said to take good care of them and not touch the water. They'll be fine, there's a plaster for Scar in the town's small hospital. After Mother makes lunch, she'll go there and buy it for you …"

"Mother, it's alright …"

There's no money in the house, don't spend it on this.

Doctor Fang said that you fell down after climbing the mountain for a while, and ended up with injuries all over your body. In addition, you were too tired, which was why you fell down. Luckily, your bones weren't broken, and you didn't suffer too much.

"And your face, what in the world happened? How could there be such a deep wound, what a sin …"

"Are you hungry? Look at what I'm saying. Auntie Lin is very warm-hearted, she sent a few eggs home. Mother is still in the pot even after cooking with the rice. Mother will bring it over to you right now to properly supplement …"

Yang Lili kept talking, and didn't give Qi Mu a chance to speak. Looking at her daughter's ferocious red face, her nose turned sour, she lowered her head and quickly wiped her face with her sleeve. She was about to leave.

Qi Mu laid on the bed and looked at Yang Lili's thin back as she carried the water basin out of the room. He smiled slightly. The corner of his mouth twitched in pain, causing her to grimace again. However, there was an indescribable happiness in his heart.

Perhaps, being cared for like this was too warm. This was something she had never received before in her previous life.

It was worth it to risk their lives for this family.

However, she was a cheap mother. From the moment she entered the door to the moment she left the house, she was not even given a chance to speak. She really had a headache, and there were still a lot of things she wanted to ask.

She had no recollection of what had happened to her Twisted Blue after she fainted … Those were all exchanged for the scar on her face. It was extremely important …

She remembered that in the entire Niu Manor, there was only one barefoot doctor. He had lost his way many years ago, walked to the Niu Manor, and was left behind by a powerful Lee family.

Could it be that he went to look for Lady Li and Li Zhiqing? The former was still alright, after being beaten and scolded left and right, the mother-wife relationship had been a problem since ancient times. The latter, alas … Eating people without spitting out their bones, with the pure and kind character of a cheap mother, how could she possibly win against him?

Seeing the color of the sky, Mom probably took care of her and didn't go to the fields. Who knew how many harsh words Zhang Chunji had accumulated for Mom.

The rest of the people in the Ye Family were probably the same, their days at home were going to be difficult.

How could they allow someone to just eat and not work? Furthermore, dragging her down required her to go to the hospital. No one in the village who didn't have any sickness or suffering could afford to stay put. They didn't even have the money to pay for it.

Then there was his sister. Originally, he had planned to pick her up this morning, but now that she couldn't even manage him, how could he pick her up?

Thinking about his family's predicament, Qi Mu closed his eyes and his expression gradually became tranquil.

It was already like this for now. What else could he do? When water comes to earth, to cover; when a soldier comes to block.

The door creaked, and Yang Lili came in with a bowl of egg rice soup.

"Mu Er, mother will feed you some food. You didn't eat anything last night, so you added eggs and nourished your flesh. It's good for your health."

"Right."

"En!" Qi Mu replied. She moved her body in an attempt to get up. The pain made her frown.

"Don't move, I'll be careful."

Seeing that, Yang Lili put down the bowl and quickly said.

"..."

Yang Lili sat on the bed, holding a bowl, and lowered her head to the spoon in her spoon. She blew gently on it, and then carefully fed it to Qi Mo. As she ate, there was no taste in her mouth, but her heart was filled with sweetness.

The sunlight fell on Yang Lili's face. It was soft and beautiful, and the lines at the corners of her eyes added a maternal radiance. The concern in her eyes was deep to the heart.

Under the protest of Qi Mu, Yang Lili insisted on feeding Qi Mu an egg and rice soup. After that, she smiled gently at Qi Mu and said:

"Mu Er, mother will go to the main house to do some work. When your father and Yang Yang return, I will be back soon. Stay here and don't move."

"Right."

Qi Mu nodded obediently.

Even if he couldn't land, he still had to go to the main house? How could it be so easy to live a good life?

Yang Lili saw that Qi Mu had responded, so she turned around and left. Just as she was about to close the door, she repeatedly warned:

"Mother is keeping all the grass you picked. Don't worry, don't move."

"Also, I don't need you to cook for lunch. You just need to rest. Mother will cook when we get back."

"Don't worry about picking up your little sister. Mom will pick her up in the afternoon. Our family can now afford to continue living, so there's no reason for us to keep it at Yang's house."

"..."

After saying some more words, Yang Lili left.

Qi Mu turned his head to look out of the window, deep in thought. It was unknown what he was thinking.
