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

Chapter 33 Who is she?

Tao Qiuyi went over to help Li Zi light the fire, but ended up filling the kitchen with smoke, which made the three of them cough continuously.

It was only after Xiao Huai peeled the rabbit skin, washed his hands, and took over the fire that the smoke dissipated.

Tao Qiuyi didn't feel embarrassed at all because she didn't know how to make fire. She just lamented that she had no talent for making fire and cooking.

"Li Zi, do you still remember the uncle and sister-in-law I invited to be witnesses when we divided the family property at noon?" Seeing that Li Zi was free, Tao Qiuyi pulled her aside and asked.

"Remember." Li Zi nodded. She would never forget what happened today.

"Do you know where their home is?" Tao Qiuyi asked.

Li Zi answered without hesitation, "I know. It's not far from our house. In fact, the houses of all the households in our first and fourth teams are next to each other. It's not far to walk around."

"Okay, let's get a frame to put the fungus in and go to the uncle and sister-in-law's house to thank them." Tao Qiuyi instructed Li Zi to get the frame, while she told Xiao Huai to keep an eye on the heat.

Watching the two of them leave in a hurry, Xiao Huai couldn't help but curl his lips. It would be great if they could live like this in the future.

Tao Qiuyi told his fourth uncle that he was touched when he and Xiaoli were under her care.

No matter how powerful Tao Qiuyi is, or how she treats others, the warmth she gives to the three siblings is enough.

Wei Jingyuan took a nap. He didn't know how long he slept, but he was woken up by hunger. Before he opened his eyes, the aroma of meat hit his nose, making him feel even hungrier.

When he lifted the quilt, a biting cold hit Wei Jingyuan. He looked down and realized that he was not wearing any clothes.

Who took off his clothes?
"You're awake." A soft voice sounded. Wei Jingyuan knew who it was without even looking. He quickly pulled the quilt over himself and wrapped himself tightly.

Tao Qiuyi was stunned by his actions, then the corner of his mouth twitched, "Do you really need to do that?"

As for being like a young wife? It made her think that she was the kind of bully who robbed a famous woman.

"As for that." Wei Jingyuan looked at her expressionlessly and said to her in a deep voice, "You go out first. I need to get dressed."

"Just wear your clothes. I'm not stopping you." Tao Qiuyi stood by the bed with her arms folded over her chest, looking at Wei Jingyuan who wrapped himself up like a silkworm cocoon, speechless.

"Hey, you're a grown man, why do you have to be so shy? We even have a marriage certificate, and it was written and stamped by the captain himself. Why are you being so defensive of me?"

Speaking of the marriage certificate, Wei Jingyuan also remembered what happened at noon and asked in a deep voice, "When are you going to go find the marriage certificate written by Fourth Uncle?"

"This morning." Tao Qiuyi replied.

This morning, after he left, Wei Jingyuan no longer wanted to ask her how she had tricked her fourth uncle into writing a marriage certificate for him and Tao Qiuyi without his presence.

Because his fourth uncle was one of the few elders who treated him and his younger siblings well after his parents passed away. He longed for him to get married, hoping to find someone who would not despise him for being disabled and could take care of him and his younger siblings.

But Fourth Uncle forgot that he would only be a burden to the girl if he continued like this.

"Why do you suddenly want to marry me?" Wei Jingyuan stared at her face.

He didn't believe her because of what Xiao Huai said before he was called away this morning, nor did he believe that she wanted to marry him to repay him because he saved her.

The drama of promising oneself to someone is not suitable for a lame man like him.

"I'm happy." Tao Qiuyi had expected him to ask this question and had already thought of what to say.

"You just marry a stranger when you're happy?" Wei Jingyuan was so angry that he laughed. Is there anyone who would marry a stranger when they're happy? He said with certainty, no.

"You're not a stranger, you're my savior. I owe you my life back, and I'm repaying you with my life." Tao Qiuyi couldn't help but burst out laughing after she finished speaking. Wei Jingyuan's face darkened immediately, "Do you believe that?"

He doesn't believe it anyway.

"Yes." Tao Qiuyi answered seriously.

Wei Jingyuan was left speechless by her.

She went up the mountain to kill a wild boar last night and exchanged it for a lot of food and meat. Today, she dared to go into the mountains alone to pick mushrooms and fungus.

She beat up her powerful grandmother, her tough aunt, and her unreasonable third aunt, and she could even hold him...

The terms she proposed when dividing the family property, and her subsequent threats to change her mind, forced my eldest and third uncles to compromise. And then there were the words she used to mock my grandmother: exhausting thought, toiling away, giving generously, devoting oneself, extorting…

An uneducated rural girl would not know these words.

And the wound on his back didn't hurt after just four or five hours. Xiao Huai said it was because he applied the ointment she made. Xiao Li also said that he had a fever and she found the antipyretic medicine for him.

There are signs that...

Suddenly seeing her reaching out to pull the quilt, Wei Jingyuan came back to his senses and grabbed the quilt tightly with both hands.

"What are you doing?" He looked at her warily.

"Don't put on your clothes yet. Let me see if the wound on your back has healed." Tao Qiuyi said as a matter of course: "After applying my ointment, the wound will definitely heal quickly, but the prerequisite is that the person has a good physical foundation. Obviously, Wei, your body has been seriously damaged, so it is naturally slow to absorb the effects of the medicine."

She was too busy before and he was drowsy with a fever. She didn't want to disturb his sleep so she didn't check the injury on his back.

"Didn't you say you don't know any medical skills?" Wei Jingyuan stared at her sharply. "Since you don't know any medical skills, and you examined my injuries but can't heal them, isn't that a waste of time?"

Tao Qiuyi rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't have any medical skills, but I have eyes and understand pharmacology. Anyone can see the simple injuries, okay?"

She didn't like to talk too much, but she was really afraid of his dying appearance. If she wasn't sure to what extent the pill could change a person's body, she would have wanted to give him a pill.

She hadn't meant to hide his abilities anyway.

"No need." She refused to go out, and Wei Jingyuan had no choice but to throw away the quilt and quickly put on his cotton jacket, fearing that she would rush over to look at the wound on his back.

"Aren't you cold dressed like this?" Tao Qiuyi's temples were throbbing. It would be strange if he could keep warm by wearing a cotton jacket without any underwear.

"It's not cold." Wei Jingyuan spat out the two words coldly. He has always dressed like this. He is used to it and it doesn't matter whether it's cold or not.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, his dark eyes searched for his crutches.

His words made Tao Qiuyi frown. Perhaps it wasn't that he wasn't cold, but that he didn't care. Her heart ached for no reason.

"No need to look for it. Your crutch is broken. Xiao Huai said he will make you a new one tomorrow. You will be staying in bed to recuperate in the next few days anyway, so it doesn't matter whether you have a crutch or not."

Wei Jingyuan remained silent.

He was sure that she... was not Tao Qiuyi.

If she is not Tao Qiuyi, then who could she be? Where did the real Tao Qiuyi go?

What was her purpose in marrying him?
