Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 145 Coward

Li Zi and Xiao Huai next to them were also looking at Tao Qiuyi eagerly, waiting for her answer.

Under the eager gazes of the three, Tao Qiuyi smiled and answered every question, "Your situation is special. It won't take too long. A few days at the fastest, half a month at the slowest."

After getting her affirmative answer, Wei Jingyuan felt relieved. Following Tao Qiuyi's instructions, he slowly stood up, then slowly took a foot forward and tentatively put his body weight on it.

"Sister-in-law..." Li Zi just called out, and when she saw Tao Qiuyi put his index finger on his lips, meaning not to disturb her, she stopped talking decisively.

Tao Qiuyi glanced at Xiao Huai, who immediately understood what she meant. He pulled Li Zi to sit by the fireplace, took out the elementary school textbooks that Tao Qiuyi had bought for them, and studied quietly.

Following Tao Qiuyi's instructions, Wei Jingyuan carefully moved his injured leg, which had been unused for two years, and began to move step by step. His movements were clumsy and looked very funny.

Especially since his body was still wobbling, as if he would fall down at any moment.

Tao Qiuyi watched him from the side, and except for occasionally giving instructions, he just looked at him like that most of the time.

Gradually, Wei Jingyuan adapted and began to walk slowly, taking every step steadily.

No, he can adapt so quickly? Tao Qiuyi's eyes showed surprise.

At his current rate, he wouldn't need several days of rehabilitation. With a good practice this afternoon and adequate rest, she was confident he'd be able to walk normally by tomorrow.

Walking to the table, Tao Qiuyi bent down to move the long bench a little, stood up, took the thermos in the middle of the table, poured a glass of water and placed it on the table.

He turned around and looked at Wei Jingyuan who was walking slowly towards him. "Okay, come here and sit down and rest for a while. Have a glass of water."

"No, I can still practice for a while." Wei Jingyuan refused without thinking.

Being able to walk again felt like a dream to him. The excitement and disbelief in his heart were beyond words. He desperately wanted to walk a little longer to prove that he was not dreaming.

He had never dared to think about walking normally before, and he was even mentally prepared to be lame for the rest of his life.

"I think you should understand the principle that more haste makes waste." After saying that, Tao Qiuyi didn't look at Wei Jingyuan again. He poured himself a glass of water, sat down at the table, and drank it slowly.

Wei Jingyuan was shocked. Yes, haste makes waste. She had finally healed his injured leg. If he didn't listen to her, something bad would happen to him...

Suppressing his thoughts, Wei Jingyuan slowly walked to the table and sat on the long bench next to Tao Qiuyi.

He picked up the cup of water on the table and drank it in one gulp, then put the cup down and looked at Tao Qiuyi. When he met Tao Qiuyi's smiling gaze, Wei Jingyuan was stunned.

I forgot what I wanted to say.

Tao Qiuyi supported his chin with one hand, looked at Wei Jingyuan with a smile and said, "Rest for half an hour, then stand up and continue walking for another half an hour, and then rest for another half an hour."

"You don't have to go anywhere this afternoon. Just practice walking around the house."

"Okay." Wei Jingyuan responded softly.

Tao Qiuyi continued, "Also, although the tendons in your legs have been repaired, and you can walk and jump like a normal person, it was repaired quickly with strong medicine, so you need to recuperate for a while."

"Okay." Wei Jingyuan nodded, and then added, "I'll listen to you in everything."

"Are you really going to listen to me in everything?" Tao Qiuyi asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Really." Without the slightest hesitation, Wei Jingyuan nodded heavily and repeated, "I'll do whatever you say."

"Wei Jingyuan, I will remember what you said." Tao Qiuyi looked at him with a smile, he looked casual and lazy, but the look in his eyes was extremely sharp.

"Yeah." Wei Jingyuan nodded again, his expression full of seriousness.

But for some reason, being scrutinized by her with such a sharp gaze, he actually felt a little nervous. He was telling her the truth, his heartfelt words, so he wasn't guilty, but nervous. Standing up and taking the middle thermos, Wei Jingyuan filled his own cup, then took Tao Qiuyi's and poured half a glass into hers as well.

"Thank you." Tao Qiuyi thanked him.

"You're welcome." Wei Jingyuan put the thermos back in its place, sat down and continued drinking tea.

Maybe the distraction just now worked, and he suddenly felt less nervous.

Picking up the teacup, Tao Qiuyi took a sip, her eyes fixed on the bamboo cup in her hand, lost in thought. She had seen Wei Jingyuan's nervousness just now. Yes, he was nervous, not guilty.

He listened to her no matter what she said, not just casually but sincerely.

To be honest, she was very happy that Wei Jingyuan and his two siblings were willing to listen to her, which proved that her kindness to them during this period was not in vain.

People who know how to be grateful are generally not bad people.

Tilting her head, Tao Qiuyi looked at Li Zi and Xiao Huai who were sitting in front of the fireplace reading. Li Zi was the first to accept her, so she treated Li Zi the best.

Noticing that she was looking at his younger siblings, Wei Jingyuan said calmly, "They are both young, but they know who is good to them, and they will listen to you."

"Yes, they are good children who know how to be grateful." Tao Qiuyi nodded.

"I also know how to be grateful." Wei Jingyuan said this very quietly, so quietly that he felt that he was the only one who heard it.

He...what did he say? Tao Qiuyi had very sensitive hearing, so she naturally heard what he said clearly, but she didn't understand what he meant by it.

With a turn of his eyes, an idea came to Tao Qiuyi's mind. He turned his gaze back to Wei Jingyuan, "Did you just say something?"

He did say it, but Wei Jingyuan didn't dare admit it. He could only shake his head and deny it, "No."

"Coward." Seeing that he didn't admit it, Tao Qiuyi snorted coldly.

Knowing she was talking about him, Wei Jingyuan's face flushed red, and he screamed madly in his heart, "She heard it, she heard it, she actually heard it..."

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside, and they were coming towards their house. Tao Qiuyi knew how many people were coming just by listening to the footsteps, and raised her eyebrows and sneered.

Li Hongying came to cause trouble again with her two sons and two daughters-in-law.

Wei Jingyuan also heard the footsteps and turned his head to look towards the door.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and along with the knock came Li Yuegui's shouting.

"Jingyuan, Qiuyi, open the door!"

Wei Jingyuan looked at Tao Qiuyi, silently asking what she meant. Tao Qiuyi raised her voice and asked, "Who is it?"

The little bitch asked even though she knew the answer. Li Yuegui was so angry that she wanted to curse, but when she thought about the purpose of everyone coming to find Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi, she forced herself to hold back and didn't curse.

"I," Li Hongying replied in a deep voice, her tone very unhappy. "Why don't you open the door quickly and let us in? It's so cold outside, what's the point of you not opening the door?"

"I'm your elder. Are you deliberately trying to freeze us to death by making me wait at the door?"

The word "intentional" is very serious.

In the room, Li Zi and Xiao Huai had put down their books and came to Wei Jingyuan and Tao Qiuyi.
