I, the Heir of Heroes

Chapter 130 Eighth Apocrypha NO.4 The Outside World

There were teardrops in his eyes, and he stared straight at the mother-in-law lying on the tatami, Mu Jun was very worried.

Kneeling aside, Jia Luo quietly waited for the diagnosis result.

Fortunately, I just accidentally slipped my foot on the stairs in front of the house, and my old and fragile body couldn't stand such a toss, so I passed out.

"It's not a big problem, but the sprained ankle is a bit serious, and I need to rest for a while. And my mother-in-law is getting old, so don't overwork, just stop and rest for the next month..."

Silently put away the medical box, the doctor found from the village slowly told the specific situation of the mother-in-law.He simply applied some healing ointment, wrapped it in gauze and left.

They are all neighbors in the neighborhood, and it is a trivial matter to help such a favor.

Quite politely thanking and seeing off the mother-in-law who was lying down and resting, Jia Luo walked back into the house.At this time, the mother-in-law had already opened her eyes, recovering from the severe pain just now.

"I'm getting old and useless. I'm sorry, Mu Jun, Jia Luo, I made you worry."

There was a hint of weakness hidden in the tone of his voice.

Mu Jun didn't see the forced smile on his face, but this behavior obviously made him show a reassured expression.

"I'm going to fetch water for my mother-in-law."

Noticing her dry lips, Mu Jun rarely obediently cared, and ran into the kitchen with bare feet, ignoring the cold wooden floor.

It wasn't until the thin figure disappeared that Jia Luo set his sights on the mother-in-law again.Such a small disguise cannot hide from Jia Luo's eyes.However, seeing his mother-in-law shaking her head slightly, he gave up his plan to persuade her.

Feeling the pain hidden under that face, Jia Luo frowned, then moved his legs closer.Under the mother-in-law's surprised gaze, her flat hands gently placed on her injured ankle.

An imperceptible fluctuation was overlaid there.

The mother-in-law was stunned, the warm feeling like the sun replaced the original pain, and the slightly trembling and unconsciously tense body gradually relaxed.

After just a few seconds of contact, the pale mother-in-law's complexion turned a little rosy, and her stiff face relaxed visibly to the naked eye.

"For the time being, it can only be done to this extent..."

Withdrawing his palm naturally, Jia Luo spoke calmly.

The injury did not improve much, but the pain suffered by the mother-in-law was greatly reduced.Taking a deep breath, the mother-in-law opened her slightly closed eyes, staring at Jia Luo with a sudden confusion after that moment of doubt.

"It's done well enough, Garosang, thank you."

— This is nothing to be thankful for.

Seeing Mu Jun approaching with a bowl carefully, Jia Luo nodded and got up to leave.

It seems that the mother-in-law is fine, and now she can't move for the family recently.

The heavy responsibility of taking care fell on Jia Luo's head.

……

With Jia Luo's learning ability, simple cooking is not difficult for him.I have specially observed the steps of my mother-in-law's meal preparation before, so I am familiar with it when I repeat it.Even a small improvement in some aspects can make the taste of the food better, but standing on the bench is a bit inconsistent with the busy figure in the kitchen.

Fortunately, such days did not last too long. After a few days of recuperation, and after changing the ankle ointment three times, the mother-in-law was barely able to stand up alone and walk around the house.

The old body is not as vibrant as it was then, and neither is it in terms of self-recovery.If you want to avoid sequelae, you must still stay at home to recuperate and reduce going out.

However, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Although there are usually some mountain wild vegetables and river fresh food to subsidize meals, but things like firewood, rice, oil and salt still need to go out to buy.

There is still a long time before her mother-in-law fully recovers. Now she cannot go through such a trek, and it is unreasonable to borrow from the neighbors every day.

"I'll go."

Facing the dwindling food and daily necessities in the house, and noticing the embarrassment on the mother-in-law's face, Mu Jun raised his hand first to signal.

He was very excited at a young age. Although he didn't know what to buy, how to buy it, or where to buy it, he set an "example" out of curiosity.

Sighing helplessly, the mother-in-law did not agree, ignoring Mu Jun's naughty actions.

In her opinion, at Mu Jun's age, it is indeed time to get to know the outside world, but now it is not appropriate to let him go there alone.

"give it to me."

Noticing the way she turned to look at him, Jia Luo nodded understandingly.Jia Luo, who went back and forth alone not long ago, is indeed the best candidate.

"Hey, mother-in-law, what about me, what about me?"

"...Then you can come with me, but you must remember that no matter what happens on the road, you need to listen to Garosan, you understand?"

The sooner children from poor families become independent, the better.

Unable to stand Mu Jun's coquetry, the mother-in-law hesitated for a moment, and then agreed with doting eyes.

Looking at the ostentatious figure who was cheering and running outside the house, Jia Luo asked her mother-in-law:

"is this okay?"

"What's wrong, I'm very relieved of Garo-sang."

"Who will take care of the mother-in-law..."

"Well, I can barely move around now. Besides, leaving Mu Jun at home may not be very convenient."

Hehe smiled, as if in relief.
