Chapter 444: Busy supporting the family in the foreign land
In the next two days, except for eating, Wei Miao was forced to lie on the bed by Xu Ayu.
At this moment, she looked at the medicinal food in Xu Ayu's hand with a bitter face.
"Mom, I'm as strong as a calf, I don't need this."
Xu Ayu sat beside her bed and spoke in a rare gentle voice:
"This is a very important time for a girl, so you must take it seriously. This five-red soup is a recipe passed down by my grandma. Drink it when you have your first period so that you won't suffer in the future."
Wei Miao took it and drank it all in one gulp, sticking out his tongue repeatedly.
They are both delicious when eaten alone, but when cooked together, they have this dry and weird taste. I wonder who invented this...
Xu Ayu watched her drink it with a smile, then showed a satisfied expression. He held her hand and told her a little shyly about a girl's first menstruation and what she needed to pay attention to when it came every month thereafter.
She was not allowed to touch cold water or eat cold food, and was even reminded awkwardly that it was better for her to stay away from people during the next few days.
"Someone with a sensitive nose can smell it out, and then they will reveal your identity, and A Miao will become a grown-up girl in the blink of an eye..."
Wei Miao was very educated. She had indeed never read what Xu Ayu said in any book.
So out of curiosity, he asked carefully. Xu Ayu was embarrassed at first, but later he spoke fluently.
She sat on the edge of the bed and chattered, and Wei Miao pulled the quilt and listened attentively.
A simple conversation completed a heritage in the simplest era.
After Xu Ayu finished speaking, he put his hand on Wei Miao's forehead and said, "When Xiao Qian has her period, her stomach hurts and she also has a fever. That's why no one taught her to stay here."
Wei Miao rolled over and pressed his face against her warm palm. "Old Monk Zhishang is so powerful, why didn't he prescribe medicine for Xiao Qian?"
Xu Ayu just felt that her daughter was well-behaved when she heard her talking nonsense. "It's too late to hide this kind of thing, how can you talk about it casually?"
Wei Miao thought of the women with bound feet he saw outside, and remembered what Brother Lu said about the sadness of this era, and suddenly fell silent.
Even Xu Ayu, a outgoing and cheerful mother of four, felt so embarrassed when talking about such things, let alone others.
"Mom, even though I've grown up, I still want to be the eldest son of the Wei family..."
Wei Miao acted coquettishly. She was not afraid of Xu Ayu and the others restraining her. Instead, she thought of the ambitious Bai Meigui and Hu Na who was determined to escape her fate.
Being a woman has a hard life, and a beautiful woman will be reduced to a plaything. She has a smart brain but no strong body. She doesn't want to experience the scene of being scratched by a lioness when she was a lion again.
Xu Ayu gently stroked her prickly hair and nodded slightly.
Now she and Wei Ada already know that their daughter likes her current state very much, and they no longer persuade her to dress up like a daughter.
When the child was young, she didn't understand and had no choice, so she could only be manipulated by them and become a boy. Now that the child has grown up and has her own ideas, she wants to do the same. If you continue to manipulate her out of guilt, you are the hateful parents.
Wei Miao also asked about the chest pain, and Xu Ayu only had a vague idea about it.
“It still hurts?”
Wei Miao looked at Xu Ayu with envy, only to realize that not everyone feels pain.
“By the way, when Mr. Zeng left, he asked Ala to give the key to the house opposite to Nong.”
Wei Miao watched Xu Ayu untie his belt and take out a brass key.
"Did he say anything?"
Xu Ayu thought for a moment and said awkwardly:
"He just said that mountains and rivers will always meet each other..."
"Have you seen Huang Xiaoan?" Wei Miao asked.
Xu Ayu slapped his thigh and said suddenly:
"The day he left was the morning before New Year's Eve. Mr. Zeng was followed by seven or eight very sturdy men, but Huang Xiaoan was not there. He had come to my house the day before to serve Mr. Zeng food."
Xu Ayu actually didn't like Huang Xiaoan very much. Although he was well-behaved and polite, when he looked at people he seemed to be looking through his nose, with his eyelids always looking down.
"However, Xiao Qian secretly told me that Huang Xiaoan always makes Mr. Zeng unhappy..."
Wei Miao knew that Huang Xiaoan was the person sent by Qinmin Building to supervise Mr. Zeng.
But how could a person who could easily know the content of the Japanese cabinet meeting be monitored?
But Mr. Zeng's ideals and ambitions are in line with those of his master, so there is no need to do this.
"You said Mr. Zeng and Xiao Qian were such nice people, but they left without saying goodbye. They only took two suitcases with them, nothing else."
Xu Ayu had heard from Wei Miao that the houses opposite were two connected ones, with the upstairs leveled and planted with delicate flowers and plants.
Those who are more expensive can buy a house.
"Mr. Zeng was wearing a white fox fur cape and holding a pot of blooming black orchids in his arms. I looked up and saw him nodding and smiling at me. My heart started pounding and I had difficulty breathing. I almost thought he was a seductive goblin..."
Wei Miao thought of the scene Xu Ayu described and was overjoyed. "Mom, is it a flower spirit?"
Xu Ayu didn't mind his daughter's jokes and continued to tell her interesting stories in the alley.
"Everyone in the alley knows that Mr. Zeng is good-looking, but unfortunately the Zeng family is very deep, and most people don't dare to disturb them. Mrs. Huang knocked on the door twice under the pretext of looking for her dog, but Xiao Qian sent her away each time..."
Speaking of Mrs. Huang, Wei Miao thought of her cousin a few days ago, "When did Mr. Huang's cousin come?"
After Wei Miao asked, he saw Xu Ayu's face change a little. Just as he was about to ask more, a voice came from outside the door.
"Just lie down and I'll go and see."
Xu Ayu got up and left, a little absent-minded, and didn't even take Wei Miao's bowl of medicinal food.
Wei Miao stared at her back and frowned when Ali jumped in from the open window.
The warm spring sunshine and blue sky and white clouds outside the window make people feel relaxed and happy.
"Meow~"
This guy was out for two days and two nights and only came back at noon today, so Wei Ran should be fine.
I'll call Brother Wu later and there's no need to look for Aunt Wei's residence.
After searching for the past two days, Wei Miao had guessed that Second Aunt Wei should not be in the French Concession.
No wonder Wei Ran skipped class.
Thinking of what Mr. Zeng said when he called her a few days ago, she considered whether to tell Xu Ayu and Wei Ada.
Seeing Wei Ran’s abnormal behavior now, I’m afraid he has already seen his biological father.
I just don't know why he is still at home?
When Wei Miao was wondering, he heard a commotion outside, and it was quite loud.
She got out of bed and put on her shoes. When she opened the door to go out, she picked up the new clothes that Xu Ayu had made for her and put them on.
"Brother, this is how you take care of your brother's child. Ala came home and curled up at the door, all burnt out."
Second Aunt Wei wore a dress and leather shoes, and had her eyebrows and lipstick drawn. She pointed at Wei A's big nose and refused to give in.
Wei Ada ignored him and looked at Wei Ran distressedly, "Aran, are you sick?"
Wei Ran also changed into a brand new dress, and the little boots on her feet were polished to a shine.
When he heard Wei A's big talk, his nose felt sore, his eyes turned red, and his body swayed a few times before he could barely stand still.

Hahaha, is Brother Ran an ungrateful bastard?
