Chapter 159 - Chapter 159: Chapter 159: Regret (2/2)

Zhuang Yucheng and Zhuang Yutian, the two brothers, were ashamed and wished they could find a hole to crawl into.

“We really didn’t know about this. Thank you, Miss Zhuang for taking care of Aunt Wen. We will go to see her right away.”

Zhuang Yucheng thanked Zhuang Qingning, and he hurried off to see Aunt Wen with his wife and children.

Zhuang Yutian let his wife take their children to see Aunt Wen, then took the prescription from Zhuang Qingning, “Thank you so much for looking after my aunt here.”

She must have been taking care of Aunt Wen all night as she had a purplish circle under her eyes.

Even though she was only leasing the tofu shop from them, she was so attentive in taking care of Aunt Wen, which was commendable.

Zhuang Yutian’s admiration for Zhuang Qingning increased even more.

“Uncle Yutian, you’re too polite,” Zhuang Qingning smiled slightly, “When we first started, Aunt Wen took care of my sister and me. She rented us the tofu shop so that we could make a living. It’s our duty to take care of Aunt Wen, Uncle Yutian, please don’t worry about it.”

“This prescription was written by the doctor just now. He recommended that the medicine be taken according to the prescription for three or four days. It should be made into a highly concentrated decoction, to be taken half an hour after meals. The patient must rest quietly and avoid spicy and stimulating food. Uncle Yutian, you need to take good care of Aunt Wen during these days.”

“Yes, we must take good care of her.”

Zhuang Yutian agreed repeatedly, his face becoming even more embarrassed when he remembered that they had caused Aunt Wen’s sickness with their own carelessness.

“We’ll take care of here, Miss Zhuang, you can rest assured. You must be exhausted from last night, hurry home and have a rest.”

“In that case, my sister and I will go home first. Please pass on our words to Aunt Wen, Uncle Yutian.”

After that, Zhuang Qingning and her sister Zhuang Qingsui headed home while Zhuang Yonghe quickly began selling tofu and tofu pudding along the streets.

The two brothers Zhuang Yucheng and Zhuang Yutian hurriedly started taking care of Aunt Wen while also rushing to get medicine from the town.

Aunt Wen wasn’t feeling too well at this point; she felt weak, and though she found her sons very displeasing to look at, they also didn’t have the energy to argue with them. However, her well-behaved daughters-in-law and lively grandchildren were around, which made her feel a bit better, and she had no energy to complain about her two sons.

The two brothers knew the reason and did not mention what happened the day before, instead, they were busy making arrangements for the night and buying some tonic foods.

“Mother, what would you like to eat this morning? I’ll cook for you.” The eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Meng, asked.

“Just had half a bowl of tofu pudding, not hungry yet. Wait until noon to cook.” Aunt Wen replied.

“Mother, have you had breakfast?” Mrs. Meng was surprised.

“Not lying to you, I really did eat.” Aunt Wen nodded, looking puzzled as she saw the surprise on Mrs. Meng’s face, “Why do you ask?”

“Oh, it’s nothing. I just saw a warm bowl of tofu pudding in the stove and thought it was prepared for you. I was going to say that only having tofu pudding might not be satisfying, so I asked if you wanted to eat something else so I could cook it for you. But since you’ve already had breakfast, then let’s listen to you and wait until noon to cook.” Mrs. Meng laughed.

Aunt Wen’s face instantly darkened.

There was still a bowl of tofu pudding on the stove and that bowl should have been Zhuang Qingning’s..
