The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler Chapter 97 - Mutual Help

Chapter 97: Mutual Help

Guo Dayou could be ignorant of tea leaves, but he could not be ignorant of taste. He had lived for more than half his life and had never eaten meat fresher than this. There was no way that this was dead pork.

It tasted so d.a.m.n good!

Guo Dayou was so engrossed in eating that he forgot to wonder how the extremely poor Yu family could afford such a large table of meat dishes.

Du Jinhua had also forgotten her manners. She was chewing with her mouth, holding a piece of meat with her hand and getting another meat with her chopsticks from time to time. She was poking around with her chopsticks and even poked the rice into the dishes.

Yu Song was so angry that his face turned green.

By the time Uncle and Aunt finally finished cooking the egg custard and served it, the plates on the table had already turned into a tragic sight.

Aunt clenched her fists and took a deep breath.

“Egg custard! I want to eat it! Give it to me!” Guo Xianqiao saw the custard in her aunt’s hand.

There were scallops in the egg custard. Not only did it have the fresh fragrance of eggs, but there was also the salty fragrance of seafood. Coupled with a little green onion and fragrant oil, it was simply delicious.

Little Zhenzhen looked at the egg custard eagerly.

Guo Xianqiao could not wait for her aunt to give it to her and reached out to s.n.a.t.c.h it.

At this moment, Little Bruiser stood up and s.n.a.t.c.hed the egg custard. He scooped up the largest lump of egg custard and placed it in Little Zhenzhen’s bowl.

Little Zhenzhen received the egg custard and ate it heartily.

Guo Xianqiao was unhappy. She took the almost empty egg custard and glared at Little Bruiser resentfully.

Little Bruiser ignored her. He picked up his chopsticks and picked out the fish bones for Little Zhenzhen.

Other than Guo Xianyue, who was still relatively reserved, the rest of the Guo family’s table manners were ugly.

The Yu family barely ate any food during the meal. All of it entered the stomachs of the three Guo family members. If not for Uncle saying that there was still a lot of meat at home and they could continue cooking tomorrow, the Yu family would seriously suspect that their stomachs would burst at the table.

The Guo family was poor and virtuous. In fact, their days were not very good. Every bit of money was squandered by Du Jinhua on clothes. How could they have the spare money to buy fish and meat for their family?

The few of them ate until their stomachs were fat and round. They held onto the wall and returned to their respective rooms.

Guo Xianyue looked a little embarra.s.sed. She put down her chopsticks reservedly and said softly, “I’m full too.” Then she stood up elegantly and returned to her room like a young lady.

The Yu Family members looked at the leftovers on the table with indescribable expressions.

Aunt closed her eyes and said, “I saw that you guys didn’t eat much. In the kitchen…”

Halfway through, Du Jinhua’s voice came from the Guo couple’s room. “Are there still dishes that haven’t been served?”

Aunt’s nails almost dug into her flesh as she said calmly, “It’s all served. There’s no more hot food in the kitchen. We’ll make new ones tomorrow.”

Du Jinhua muttered unhappily.

No one in the Yu family said anything else. They lowered their heads and finished the food in their bowls.

“Sister-in-law, let Zhenzhen go to my place,” Madam Jiang said to Aunt.

Little Zhenzhen could not eat anything as there was a Guo Xianqiao who was fighting for food at home. It was not that Aunt was stingy, but that Guo Xianqiao was really a bag that could not be filled. She could eat too much! And she doesn’t share!

Aunt nodded and asked Madam Jiang to bring Little Bruiser and Zhenzhen back to the residence.

Yu Wan stayed behind to help Aunt clean up the kitchen.

Aunt boiled a large pot of hot water. Yu Wan sat in front of the stove and added wood to the fire.

Uncle limped in with his walking stick. Aunt ignored him with a dark expression. Uncle went around to her side and secretly poked her waist with his finger.

Yu Wan inadvertently saw this small action. Yu Wan suddenly felt that Uncle was a little cowardly and found it funny.

Aunt slapped his hand away impatiently.

“You’re still angry,” Uncle whispered.

Aunt threw the rag on the stove and turned to glare at him. “It’s all your fault! Why did you invite them over? Can’t you let them go to the city!”

“Shh, shh, shh. Lower your voice.” Uncle gestured for her to keep quiet and lowered his voice. “We’re all family. How can I stand by and do nothing when his family is in trouble? Besides, isn’t their brother-in-law’s house in repair so that anyone can’t live there?”

Aunt said angrily, “Only you would believe these words! Isn’t our house broken? The beam is broken! Little Feng is still repairing it! Even Luo Dongliang knows how to throw this burden, but you’re the only one who’s rus.h.i.+ng to take it!”

Aunt was so fierce when she was angry… Yu Wan silently lowered her presence. I am air, I am air, I am air…

Uncle glanced at Yu Wan, who wished she could shrink into the stove. He cleared his throat awkwardly and leaned close to Aunt. In a voice that he thought only the two of them could hear, he said, “You’ve suffered with me for so many years, but you can’t raise your head high in your maternal family. But our lives now aren’t difficult, and I don’t want you to be looked down on anymore. You have someone backing you up too. You can make decisions in the Yu family. You can make decisions according to your wishes.”

Uncle had never studied before. Usually, he could not say anything nice, but once he did, it warmed one’s heart.

Aunt turned around, her eyes red.

Yu Wan: Why is she seeing this display of affection here?

This was the feeling of helping each other, right? How nice.

She had never met anyone like this in her previous life. She did not know if she would be so lucky to meet someone she knew and stayed with in this life.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Yu Wan got up and returned to the house.

Yu Feng was about to send her off when Guo Dayou called him away.

“Wait for me, I’ll send you off!” Yu Feng turned around and instructed.

Yu Wan smiled and shook her head. The village was only so big. Was there a need to send her off?

Yu Wan opened the door.

Yu Song, who had been forcefully pressed into the blanket by his mother to recuperate, heard the sound of the door bolt. His eyes moved as he lifted the blanket and got off the bed.

It was already spring, but for some reason, the weather was suddenly cold and it was snowing lightly.

Yu Wan tightened the cotton jacket on her body and walked out of the old residence. As soon as she crossed the threshold, she saw a moonlight-like figure under a locust tree not far away.

Yu Wan took a closer look. “… Young Master Yan?”

She took a few steps forward to make sure she was not mistaken. She could not help but be even more surprised. “Why are you here? Have you been here long?”

Yan Jiuchao held a walking stick in one hand and a cloak in the other. When he heard Yu Wan’s words, he snorted and coldly threw the cloak at Yu Wan. His disdainful action seemed to be throwing something he didn’t want, but he threw it extremely accurately, covering Yu Wan’s body.

Yu Wan instantly felt warm. The cloak still had his warmth and a faint fragrance that belonged to him.

It seemed that her body was not the only thing warm…

“You…” Yu Wan looked around and guessed uncertainly,” Are you waiting for me? ”

Yan Jiu said angrily, “I need to change my dressing. Don’t you know!”

“About that… didn’t I tell Uncle Wan to change it for you?” Yu Wan said.

“Is he a doctor?” Yan Jiuchao’s tone became even colder.

In the past, Yu Wan would have been angry when he was so fierce to her. But tonight, Yu Wan only smiled slightly. “Have you been waiting for me for a long time?”

“No! Achoo!”

Young Master Yan’s sneeze betrayed him.

Yu Wan’s gaze landed on his frozen arm and the ground that was about to become an empty hole from his steps. She raised her hand to touch the cloak on her body.

Yan Jiuchao thought that she was going to return the cloak to him, so he snorted in disdain. He abandoned her and limped away with his walking stick.

Unexpectedly, Yu Wan only tied the ribbon of her cloak. Then, she caught up to him and gently… held his hand.
