Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1424: Don’t Want To See Them
An hour later, the relatives finally finished their tea, made their pre-orders, and were willing to leave.
After Mother Pan sent them off, she sat beside her daughter-in-law and asked, "Xue'er, are you sure your friend can meet this demand?"
"The number of grains and other things your aunts ordered is not small at all. If you fail to get the stuff, you might be blamed by them."
Bai Xue'er folded the paper and put it in her bag before she turned to her mother-in-law and said, "Mother, don't worry. This friend of mine is actually Lu Jueyu."
When Mother Pan heard her words, she was taken aback.
After a moment, she said, "Jiajia said that their brigade had a good harvest last year and they got a lot of grains. But no matter how many grains Jueyu receives, it's still impossible for her to sell so many."
"Mother, I had asked Jueyu to help me buy some grains before. While she hasn't replied to my letter yet, I'm sure that she and her husband are able to sell the grains," Bai Xue'er replied confidently.
"How can you be so sure? What if they are unwilling to sell the grains?" Mother Pan asked again.
Lowering her voice, Bai Xue'er explained slowly, "Mother, you must have noticed that the distribution of the supplies was delayed last month. The reason is because the government no longer has any reserve grains."
"But even if it was delayed, we still received the supplies after all. What's more, this matter and that matter are different," Mother Pan said with doubt.
Bai Xue'er smiled and said, "It's because my husband was able to buy 100 tons of rice from his maternal cousin, and the supplier of those grains is actually the Li family."
The moment Mother Pan heard this, she was so shocked that her mouth fell open. It took her a while to regain her composure before she asked, "Does the Li family have that kind of ability?"
Bai Xue'er nodded and said, "Jiajia told me that her husband and his brothers often go to the mountains and they actually found several grain fields there. Those grains, vegetables, and mushrooms were all harvested from the mountains."
Hearing this, Mother Pan felt confused and asked, "If the mountains have so many resources, why didn't the government claim the mountains? If they are able to harvest grains and distribute them to the stores, wouldn't that be better?"
"From what I heard, while the mountains have a lot of resources, they are very dangerous. The deeper the area, the more wild beasts there are. Several people died years ago after being eaten by a tiger. There are also people who have seen wolves and wild boars in the mountains," Bai Xue'er said.
"With how dangerous the mountains are, the government won't bother to claim them and take the risk. What if they couldn't find anything and the soldiers got killed by the wild beasts instead? It would be a huge loss to the country," she added.
After listening to her daughter-in-law's explanation, Mother Pan finally realized that her son-in-law not only spent money, but also risked his life going into the mountains.
Even a biological son might not be willing to risk his life for his parents. For him to do so much for their family, it was no longer just the filial piety of a son-in-law.
Reaching this conclusion, Mother Pan let out a sigh and said, "Jiajia is very blessed to be able to marry Lingyun. Thanks to her blessing, our family has been able to survive this hard time."
Bai Xue'er smiled and said, "Jiajia is our family's lucky treasure. In the future, she will live a good and happy life. Mother, you can rest assured now."
Mother Pan nodded and said, "You are right."
After chatting with her mother-in-law for a while, Bai Xue'er took her leave and went home to write a letter. On her way to pick up her son from school, she sent the letter using express courier. It would take one or two days for the letter to arrive at Xie Village.
At the same time, in the coastal city, Han Yuluo was sitting across from Han Liling in her bedroom.
Looking at his niece, he asked, "Liling, do you want to go back to Xie Village?"
Hearing this, Han Liling thought for a long time before she shook her head and said slowly, "Uncle, I don't want to see them."
It had been more than four months since she came here, underwent therapy, and took her medicine. While she no longer stuttered like before thanks to the therapy, her speaking speed was still slow.
Han Yuluo nodded and reached out to gently rub his niece's head while saying, "Since you don't want to go back, then Uncle will ask the doctor and nurse to take care of you for a while. After Uncle and your Aunt Huang get the marriage certificate, we will come back as soon as possible."
When Han Liling heard this, she looked at her uncle and asked, "Uncle, will my sister go with you too?"
Han Yuluo nodded again and replied, "We can't send both of you to stay in the hospital dormitory, so your sister will have to go back to the village with us."
When she heard her uncle's words, Han Liling frowned. Seeing her like this, Han Yuluo didn't rush her and waited patiently.
After thinking for a long time, Han Liling finally asked, "Uncle, if I go back with you, can I not stay with them?"
The moment Han Yuluo heard this, he smiled and said, "Of course you can. If Liling doesn't want to see them, then we won't see them."
"But Liling wants to see my brother, Aunt Jueyu, and also Doctor Yu," Han Liling added.
"Okay, Uncle will bring your brother to see you, and we will visit your Aunt Jueyu and Doctor Yu," Han Yuluo said.
When she heard her uncle's words, Han Liling finally smiled and threw herself into his arms, saying, "Thank you, Uncle!"
