Becoming the Villain's Discarded Wife -
Chapter 274
Chapter 274: Chapter 274
Nanzhi only opened her eyes after lying down for seven days straight.
Zhiyu, seeing his mother awaken, thought she would just sit up and laugh blankly as she did these days. He climbed onto the bed intending to cover her with a blanket, but then noticed that her eyes were clear, no longer foggy as they had been.
"Mother?"
Nanzhi felt a headache. Seeing Zhiyu, she immediately voiced the doubt in her heart: "Why are you not at the Academy? At such a young age, you shouldn’t be skipping school."
Zhiyu, who was about to hug his mother, was stopped by her question.
"Mother, today is a break day, there’s no need to go to the Academy." The little guy curled his lips, somewhat unhappy.
"Is that so." Nanzhi felt her head ached and had no memory of the past few days.
Zhiyu watched his mother’s dazed expression, sighed like a little adult, fetched a cup of water and said: "Mother, drink water."
"Ah, good. Gougou is really obedient." Nanzhi took the cup of water from the child, feeling a bit moved.
Her son had grown up now.
But Zhiyu seemed to have received a major blow, retreating a few steps, disbelief written all over his face.
"Gougou, what’s wrong with you?"
Nanzhi was somewhat puzzled by the little one’s behavior. What was wrong with him?
"Grandma! Grandma!"
The little guy ignored Nanzhi’s words, just ran out of the house.
As he ran, he was calling for Grandma Lin.
Grandma Lin, who was originally sunning in the yard, heard the cry of her little grandson and thought something had happened. She quickly put down her needlework and ran into the house.
"Zhiyu, Zhiyu, what happened?"
Seeing Grandma come, the little guy cried out loud.
"What’s the matter? Did you fall? Or did you get hurt?"
While asking, Grandma Lin carefully inspected the child’s body, fearing that he had bumped into something.
"Mother, mother woke up." The little guy spoke through his tears and snot, not looking like his mother had woken up, but rather like she was gone.
Grandma Lin’s movements paused, she slapped the little butt once thinking he was making mischief: "Your mother has woken up, what are you crying for."
"Mother, mother called me Gougou." The little guy cried and pouted, looking like he had been abandoned.
The smile froze on Grandma Lin’s face.
No one had called Zhiyu Gougou since he got his formal name.
For one, Zhiyu would be unhappy if called Gougou.
Secondly, calling him Gougou was forbidden by the elders.
"Little darling, what’s the matter, what happened?" Grandma Lin stumbled to open the door. In the room, Nanzhi sat on the bed in a daze, not moving.
"Mother?" Nanzhi seemed to be taken aback when she saw Grandma Lin, then uncertainly called out.
"What happened to you?" Seeing her hesitation when calling her, Grandma Lin had many thoughts racing through her mind.
Had she lost her memory?
Or had the original owner of the body Nanzhi was inhabiting returned?
"I just feel a little dizzy in my head, I can’t remember things." Nanzhi patted her own head, frowning.
"What happened to Zhiyu just now? Why was he crying so desperately?"
Nanzhi asked while rubbing her head.
On hearing her words, Grandma Lin let go of her worries: "He was scared by you, I thought you had some kind of amnesia, it scared me to death."
"No, I just feel a little confused in my head. I just blurted out Gougou."
After Nanzhi explained, the little guy wiped his tears, crawled into her arms.
"Zhiyu was frightened by mother."
"It’s ok, It’s ok now." Nanzhi rubbed the little guy’s head, held him tighter.
"Mother, how long have I been lying down? I feel achy all over."
"You’ve been laying there for a whole seven days now." Mother Lin sighed, her expression somewhat complicated as she watched Nanzhi.
Tales about her own daughter could practically fill a booklet by now.
"What, what about the restaurant." Nanzhi’s mind went blank, then she thought of Shen Miaomiao and relaxed.
Miaomiao is an intelligent girl, she should be able to manage the restaurant well.
"Miaomiao is looking after it. Your incident scared her, these days she’s been running both the restaurant and the house." Speaking of Shen Miaomiao, Mother Lin had a bit of a smile on her face.
Miaomiao really is a good girl.
She just didn’t know who could be lucky enough to marry such a good girl in the future.
"That’s good."
Nanzhi gave a hehe laugh and scratched her head.
"Fatty, can you remember what happened? Miaomiao said that you suddenly fainted when you were on your way home with her."
Mother Lin looked worried. If there was something wrong with her body, the doctor said there was nothing wrong.
But the elder brother said that when the doctor first took Fatty’s pulse, it was very weak, and it gradually stabilized.
No reason, how could a person just faint?
After trying hard to recall the situation at that time, Nanzhi shook her head: "I can’t remember."
Her mind was currently a mess; a lot of it was very blurry.
"Then do you want to get up and walk around, Mother will cook a bowl of noodles for you?"
She had only been given some porridge to drink for the past few days, not to starve her.
Although Nanzhi had clearly gained weight now, Mother Lin was still a little worried.
The stomach that was originally not feeling anything, after Mother Lin’s words, immediately started to feel hungry.
"I want to eat meat soup noodles, with added spice." Nanzhi smiled, feeling that her mouth was very bland.
"The doctor said, you should eat something light."
Mother Lin left these words behind and left the room.
Nanzhi stretched her arms, feeling very weak all over, it took a while before she slowly got out of bed.
She needs to wash up and go check on the restaurant.
She didn’t expect this to happen before, she only left a little over two taels of silver for Uncle Ping, the workers’ salaries haven’t been paid yet.
After washing up and changing clothes, Mother Lin also cooked the noodles.
The clear soup with only a few green onions added, not even an egg.
Nanzhi looked at the noodles in the bowl with a hint of helplessness, ate it in a few bites, then hurriedly left with Zhiyu.
Watching Nanzhi holding Zhiyu and leaving, Xiaomi in the corner was a little envious.
His injuries were not heavy but not light either, after applying medicine, it was still bruised now.
It was Mother Lin’s kind heart, she saw him pitifully, and let him stay at home.
He was afraid of being driven out for eating white rice, although he couldn’t do much help, he also picked up some work that he could do.
"Xiaomi, you go to the backyard to pick up the eggs, I’ll sweep the front yard." Mother Lin saw him shorter than the broom yet struggling to sweep the floor and felt a little distressed, so she only asked him to go to the backyard to pick up eggs.
"Okay." Xiaomi put the broom away, and then he hurried to the backyard.
"Mother, are you going to the restaurant?" Zhiyu asked, looking up and holding Nanzhi’s hand.
"Yes, mother needs to go to the restaurant." Nanzhi’s words paused, as if she had thought of something, and then she asked, "Zhiyu, who was the boy in the yard just now?"
How come she hadn’t seen him before?
"It’s the big brother who stole Zhiyu’s purse."
"Is that so?"
Recalling the little beggar who had stolen her purse before, Nanzhi understood.
It must be the same one.
