Chapter 974: Chapter 974: Good Feelings (3)

Cui Qingrou was reluctant to scare her nephew and comforted him softly, "Your grandmother is alright, but she’s getting on in years, and if you don’t go back now, it may not be the same."

Originally, Cui Pingan wanted to act spoiled towards his aunt and stay at the Mo Family for a few more days, but upon hearing his aunt say this, he immediately dropped the idea, "Mmm, nephew will go back with aunt and will definitely not make grandmother, aunt, and Uncle worry about Xiaoqi anymore."

Cui Qingrou looked at him with a satisfied expression, "Xiaoqi has really grown up!"

"Auntie..." Cui Xiaoqi scratched his head embarrassingly, filled with gratitude towards Mo Yan. In the past, he had been too careless, never considering things from his grandmother and their perspective. This time when he returned, he was determined to sincerely apologize to his grandmother.

Cui Qingrou had planned to offer her thanks and then take Cui Pingan back to the Cui family, but the fellow insisted that one must finish what one starts, and he was determined to complete a day’s work before willing to leave.

Aunt and nephew argued for a while, and eventually, Cui Qingrou admitted defeat, allowing Cui Pingan to go.

The jobs that Cui Pingan did every day were only two: chopping wood and carrying water to water the vegetable garden. Both tasks required strength. If it had been the Cui Pingan of before, he would need to rest for half an hour after chopping wood for just a quarter of an hour, and he could only carry two and a half bucketfuls of water. Now, his health had improved a lot, and his strength had grown, so he could continuously chop wood for half an hour without a problem, and each time he carried water, he could carry two full buckets.

Cui Qingrou watched, her heart aching yet also filled with pride. She had already felt that her nephew’s spirits were better, and he seemed stronger, but it was only after seeing him work with ease that she became even more certain that his health had indeed improved.

Upon learning that Mo Yan had been consistently helping her nephew recuperate, Cui Qingrou was extremely grateful and thanked Mo Yan once more.

Mo Yan accepted her thanks with a guilty conscience and silently reminded herself that she must ensure Cui Pingan’s health improved, or else she would feel unworthy of these thanks!

With her current medical skills and no practical experience, without relying on the Spirit Spring Water, she had no confidence in improving Cui Pingan’s health. This time, she had treated Cui Pingan as a guinea pig; though the medicine she used was carefully formulated, it had never been tested on anyone else, so no one knew if it was actually effective or if it would bring new burdens to his health.

If it weren’t for the Spirit Spring Water, Mo Yan wouldn’t dare to risk someone else’s health even if she were given a thousand times more courage. Fortunately, the medicinal herbs she mixed turned out to be reliable, and even without using Spirit Spring Water, Cui Pingan’s condition improved day by day, and there were no adverse reactions. This showed that the prescription Mo Yan had developed was very suitable.

Cui Pingan’s health wasn’t fully recovered yet. Mo Yan, based on his current physical condition, modified some of the ingredients and prepared another ten prescriptions for him to continue taking after returning home. After he finished these medicines, he was to visit Du’s Medical Hall and see Doctor Du. If there were no issues, he wouldn’t need to take any more medicine.

Cui Qingrou offered another round of thanks, once again feeling emotionally that such a wonderful girl could not become her nephew’s wife.

At lunchtime, Mo Yan made a table full of delicious dishes to treat Cui Qingrou.

For the first time, Cui Qingrou couldn’t control her appetite and ended up feeling slightly stuffed. Watching her nephew devour his meal and consume four bowls of rice, she suddenly understood why he was reluctant to leave.

After the meal, Cui Pingan rested for half an hour and then continued chopping wood. Once the firewood was done, he picked up the buckets and carried water from the Xiaoqing River to water the Mo Family’s backyard vegetable garden.

The Mo Family had a well, and they used to draw water directly from the well to water the garden, but in order to strengthen Cui Pingan’s body, Mo Yan deliberately had him fetch water from the farther Xiaoqing River.

Cui Pingan made twenty trips back and forth, and it wasn’t until the setting sun dipped low that all the fruits and vegetables in the garden were watered.
