Yu Chunmiao pointed at herself with a dazed expression and said, "Do you know how I died?"
Qi Chong was puzzled; wasn't she living just fine?
Before he could respond, Yu Chunmiao continued as if talking to herself, "It’s all trivial. I treated it so well, yet it left me. It only cared about its little lover and even kicked me on the way out. I gave my heart to it; how could it treat me like this?"
Qi Chong felt a heaviness in his chest, worse than after drinking Men Er Quan.
"Who is Xiao Wei?" Yu Chunmiao's heart had died for him. She was not only sad for her mother but also for this Xiao Wei. This person must have meant a lot to her.
No wonder she had been ignoring him these past few days; it turned out—
Yu Chunmiao's cries pulled Qi Chong from his gloomy thoughts. He watched as she sobbed loudly, shouting, "You have no heart! You deserve to be abandoned!"
Her cries attracted the entire Qi Family.
As soon as Chen Ruolan entered the house, she caught a strong smell of alcohol. Seeing Yu Chunmiao crying uncontrollably, she understood everything.
"Yuan Er, quickly put away the alcohol. Qi Rong, go get some water for your sister-in-law to drink."
The two brothers sprang into action.
Chen Ruolan approached Yu Chunmiao and wiped her tears, saying, "Just tell me what’s wrong; why drink so much?"
She then slapped Qi Chong lightly on the shoulder and scolded, "Your father wouldn’t dare drink that much; how could you let her?"
Qi Chong's eyes were red, his voice trembling as he said, "She’ll fall asleep soon; Mother, please help her back."
Qi Rong brought a bowl of water. Chen Ruolan held it to Yu Chunmiao's lips. She cooperatively took a couple of sips before falling asleep as Qi Chong had predicted.
After settling Yu Chunmiao down, Chen Ruolan went to Qi Chong's room.
Seeing his son with red-rimmed eyes and a sorrowful expression, she asked, "What happened with Yu Chunmiao today? What’s wrong with you?"
A mother knows her child best; she could tell something was troubling him.
Qi Chong furrowed his brow and shook his head. "Mother, when you bought Yu Chunmiao, was she really just a blank slate without any emotions?"
Chen Ruolan had been puzzled by that too. They had done their homework before buying her and even visited Old Pine Village to observe her.
At that time, Yu Chunmiao had shown no expression; it was hard to tell if she was happy or sad. All they knew was that she worked efficiently—washing clothes, feeding pigs, and watering the vegetable garden.
She had bought her because of her ability and low price. She had indeed done her research and seen for herself. That day when she was watering the vegetable garden, her sister-in-law had slapped her across the face. The redness on her cheek had pained Chen Ruolan to see; yet Yu Chunmiao hadn’t even covered her face and continued working as if nothing had happened.
She said she was knocked unconscious by her father, and when she woke up, she suddenly became enlightened.
Qi Chong exhaled deeply, voicing all his doubts. Even if she had become enlightened, he recognized Banxia, while others did not. She knew how to handle the Apple Snail when others were too afraid to touch it. In no time, she could come up with a design for a toilet and even draw it out. After watching Doctor Yu perform a procedure once, she could bandage his leg perfectly.
Was this enlightenment? This was clearly not her.
Mother, she has someone in her heart now; it’s not me.
Chen Ruolan firmly disagreed, "Nonsense! How could you not know how she feels about you? She didn’t even speak before; where would her feelings come from?"
Seeing her son’s melancholic expression, Chen Ruolan realized he was becoming emotional. After all, who would care about whether their purchased bride had feelings for them?
Qi Chong gritted his teeth and said, "She was bought by you; it’s only natural that she treats me well out of necessity."
It wasn’t surprising that Qi Chong thought this way; being so crippled around her was not beneficial for him. Since the fact of being bought was established, it would be better to focus on getting himself healed wholeheartedly.
She was so smart; it was only natural for her to plan for her future.
