I Helped My Boyfriend Get Rich

Chapter 23

The pain at the back of Tao Yin's head caused her to open her eyes. She reached out and touched her head. Sure enough, it was wrapped in bandages.

In her previous world, after Tian Fang's restaurant opened, business became more and more prosperous. On the second day of her birthday, she woke up and saw the scene in front of her.

Tao Yin was thinking about the plot of this world when the dilapidated wooden door in front of her was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

"Ah, if you're awake then hurry up and get up. Who did you learn from? You're still lying in bed in the morning. I'll say it right here. You're in your own home now. If you continue to be so lazy after you get married, do you want our old Tao family to be criticized behind our backs?"

Tao Yin frowned and looked at the woman who came in with a fan without knocking.

She was not even sixty years old and had a mean face. One of her front teeth was missing, but even so, she could still scold her without any hesitation.

"Grandma," Tao Yin called out obediently. Then, she heard Chen Guihua complaining to her.

"I see that you're fine. You just knocked your head. You'll be alive and kicking after a nap, right? Your mother is making a ruckus. What's the point of crying? How can a little girl be so delicate?"

Chen Guihua angrily glared at Tao Yin, who was only wearing a thin layer of clothing and sitting on the bed. She ordered, "Get up later and coax your brother. Look at how you scared him. He ate half a steamed bun last night."

Chen Guihua was talking about Tao Yin's second uncle's son, Tao Jie. He was seven years old this year. Second Aunt doted on this boy who had been born with great difficulty. Chen Guihua also watched her precious grandson grow up in front of her.

Yesterday, Tao Yin was knocked down by Tao Jie and hit his head on the wall. Tao Jie was often nagged by Tao Yin's mother, Li Lan.

No matter how angry Li Lan was, she couldn't stop Chen Guihua from protecting Tao Jie. Li Lan made it clear that if her daughter was fine, it would be fine. If something really happened to her daughter, she wouldn't let her second uncle's family have an easy time.

Chen Guihua kept a straight face and disdained Li Lan, but her heart was still trembling. Li Lan had been married to her third uncle for so many years and had given birth to Tao Yin. Chen Guihua knew that this daughter-in-law wasn't easy to control. Not to mention, Li Lan's brothers were still promising. If the Li Lan's family really made trouble, it would be troublesome to deal with them.

Therefore, Chen Guihua groped her way out of bed this morning to see how her disappointing granddaughter was faring. Seeing that Tao Yin didn't look like she was about to die, she was relieved. The resentment in her heart rushed to the top of her head, and she scolded Tao Yin right to her face.

Tao Yin's head was buzzing. He thought that he might have a concussion, but he didn't know if it was serious.

Looking at the chattering Chen Guihua in front of her, Chen Guihua became more impatient. The original owner was tortured to death by her patriarchal grandmother, which made her a little angry.

"Grandma, Tao Jie knocked me unconscious yesterday. Did Tao Jie come to apologize to me?"

Chen Guihua looked at him with a surprised face: "What?"

Tao Yin calmly explained to his grandmother: "You see, he knocked me down so badly. Didn't he come to apologize? When I came back, I wanted to talk to my mother and ask her to take me to the hospital in the city. I feel a terrible headache. I don't know if my brain is damaged.

Grandma, you should come with us. Otherwise, second aunt will say that we are extorting money from her. I heard that the hospital in the city doesn't charge cheap. "

"Your mother is a doctor. Why does she want to go to the city? It's a waste of money!"

Tao Yin shook his head: "Grandma, you don't know. My mother said that some diseases can't be seen with just the eyes. If we go to the city, there are machines there. The doctors in the city can see the patients with just a glance. It's very advanced!"

Chen Guihua opened her mouth. She was so anxious that her face turned red. She wanted to scold Tao Yin loudly, but when she saw the other's frightened and weak appearance, she didn't dare to speak. She was afraid that if she scared the other party, she would blame it on her.

This wretched girl, after being knocked awake, she had learned to be smart. Could it be that her head was damaged?

Chen Guihua didn't believe it, but she didn't dare to jump to conclusions.

"How serious can a child be?

Isn't it because you are absent-minded all day long? You don't even look at the road when you walk! "

Chen Guihua was caught off guard by Tao Yin's words. She didn't dare to ask Tao Yin to do any work. She waved her rough hand: "I'm going to the field. You can do whatever you want. Make lunch for me. Your mother went to the second team to see a doctor. She won't be back until the afternoon."

Chen Guihua finished speaking hastily. She picked up a shovel from behind the door and ran to her own field. Her back was strong and vigorous.

Tao Yin watched her leave and stood up by the edge of the bed. He hadn't eaten for two meals, so his stomach was very hungry.

Following his memory, he walked to the stove and opened the lid. There was indeed a steamer inside. There was a steamed bun and an egg on it. In this era, white flour noodles and boiled eggs were considered exquisite food.

It had been less than a year since each family got their own fields. Even if the harvest was good, with so many people in the family, they couldn't get much. Most people chose to get some coarse grain and swallow it with boiled water. There weren't many people who ate fine grain.

Tao Qingchang and Li Lan were husband and wife. One was in charge of the fields, and the other was a barefoot doctor in the brigade. After the Tao family separated, their family of three was the standard of living in the village.

The man worked hard in the fields, and the woman went from house to house to see a doctor. They also received a lot of money. Even if they didn't have money, they would still embarrassedly give them a basket of eggs or a bag of noodles.

Other people could only envy them.

Tao Yin silently finished the steamed bun and egg. He boiled some hot water and poured it into the kettle. When his parents came back, they would have hot water to drink.

Tao Yin knew that there were steamed buns and eggs in the pot because of the original owner's memory.

In his previous life, the original owner was very afraid of Chen Guihua. When Chen Guihua asked her to work in the fields for her, the original owner didn't dare to refuse. She could only starve and work in the fields for Chen Guihua.

After a busy morning, he dragged his tired and hungry body back home. He saw that there was a handful of egg shells beside the pot he opened. Li Lan had left them for Tao Yin to eat, but Chen Guihua had secretly eaten them.

The original owner didn't complain to Li Lan. He just thought that it was filial piety to his grandmother.

But in the end, his grandmother made the decision to marry him to the shameless man in the neighboring village. In the end, she was beaten to death.

Tao Yin had seen people who favored boys over girls, but he had never seen an old lady who was so biased. She would make her own granddaughter suffer so miserably.

After figuring out his current situation, Tao Yin took the bowl to the well and planned to wash it.
