Chapter 4 Wake Up
"Tiange, Tiange!"
Mo Tiange opened his eyes blankly when he heard his mother's crying.
"Tiange!" The fourth lady of the Mo family who was guarding her cried with joy, "You are finally awake."
Her eyes slowly focused and she shouted blankly: "Mom."
"Mom is here. Do you feel uncomfortable? Tell me quickly."
She looked confused and then she touched her stomach: "So hungry."
The fourth lady was stunned and then smiled with tears in her eyes: "You kid, you ran into the ancestral hall rashly and fell off the chair. The master frightened you. You are so sad. When you wake up, you know you're hungry. Mom goes to make food for you, wait."
She nodded: "Yeah."
The fourth lady hurried to the kitchen, but when she stepped out, a flash of eyes suddenly appeared in front of her, and she quickly supported the wall. Her blue-white face looked good for a long time before she recovered.
Mo Tiange got up and looked around. Everything had not changed. He couldn't help but hold his chin and said to himself: "Is it a dream?"
When she thought about it, many strange words and gestures suddenly appeared in her mind, which scared her.
Those words were strange, completely different from what she had learned, but for some reason, she intuitively recognized them.
"Is it true?" She slowly recalled everything in her dream. She couldn't understand the meaning of many words, but those words were deeply engraved in her mind.
Immortal, are there really immortals in this world? Can she also become an immortal and fly around in the sky?
But when she thought of the ancestor saying that her mother was not saved, her expression became dim again.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and someone entered the yard: "Fourth Lady, is this cooking?" Mo Tiange heard that this was the voice of Aunt Awang next door.
Then there was my mother's gentle voice: "Yes, Tiange fainted and didn't eat for two days, and she was so hungry."
Aunt Awang smiled and said, "The child is awake? That's all. There's nothing valuable in our family. Just these eggs and fruits to replenish Tiange's body. Oh, your face is so bad. Come on, sit and rest for a while. I'll do these."
"How can I be so embarrassed? My sister-in-law always gives us her eggs, so how can I still bother you?"
"What's the matter? Frying a few side dishes is not a trivial matter. Your family has helped us a lot in the past. Back then, I was the head of the family and I was no longer lame thanks to my fourth aunt's help. Don't be polite."
The fourth aunt said her father, and Mo Tiange knew it. She had heard it sporadically. Her father was not only knowledgeable, but also had medical skills. She was obviously a scholar, but her strength was greater than others. Uncle Awang said that this was a skill. After his father lived in the village for several years, the villagers didn’t have to look for outsiders to see a doctor, and his father would go to help with building a house and digging a well.
I heard Aunt Awang say again: "How can a girl enter the ancestral hall, Tiange, how can a girl enter the ancestral hall? Fortunately, everyone sees that she is young and hit her head again. How is she doing now? Is her head okay?"
"When you wake up, you say you're hungry, it should be nothing."
"That's good. But, in this way, how can you take care of Tiange with your body? Is your family asking you to go back?"
Tiange knew that his mother didn't say anything, but she didn't. Grandma didn't like her, nor did she like her, uncles and uncles were not close to her, and grandpa was also very cold to them. In that family, except for Tian Qiao, who was nice to her, no one else paid attention to her.
Aunt Awang is right. My mother is so sick, how can she take care of her? She wants to get better and take care of her mother.
She cheered up and jumped off the bed, but her head became dizzy again.
There were a lot of things flying around in her mind. She knew it was left by the ancestor who spoke to her. It was a thing called Su Nujue. She didn't understand it very much, but she seemed to know what to do.
The door was pushed open, and the fourth lady and Aunt Awang walked in with their own food.
When Aunt Awang saw her, she smiled: "Can Tiange get out of bed? How about it? Does the head-bump hurt?"
She shook her head: "I'm fine, Aunt Awang."
"It's fine. Come and have a meal. I haven't eaten for two days. I'm so hungry, aren't you?"
"Yeah." She nodded, turned to see her mother put the food on the table, and said to her: "Tiange, come and have a meal."
When she saw her mother's face, she was terriblely pale, she was a little worried: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
The fourth lady shook her head and smiled comfortably: "Don't worry, I just haven't had a good rest, it'll be fine after a while."
She was not suspicious and took the meal she handed over. The mother said she hadn't eaten for two days and didn't feel it just now, but now she smelled the fragrance of the food and felt really hungry.
Seeing her voracious look, the fourth lady and Aunt Awang couldn't help but smile at each other.
"Slow down, no one will rob you, be careful to choke."
After having something in his stomach, Mo Tiange slowed down and looked up and said, "The rice cooked by my mother is delicious, and the beans fried by Aunt Awang are also very fragrant."
These words made both adults laugh.
Aunt Awang talked for a while here before leaving. Before leaving, she said to the fourth lady: "Although Tiange woke up, I don't know if there is any inappropriateness. Let's ask the doctor to come and have a look."
The fourth lady nodded: "I just regret that my body is useless, and I have to bother Brother Awang to hire a doctor again."
"If you say anything, distant relatives are worse than close neighbors. It is appropriate to help each other. In the afternoon, I will ask the head of the family to go to the town, so you can rest at home, I'll go back."
"Yes, sister-in-law is gone."
As soon as Aunt Awang was sent away, the fourth lady discovered that her little niece was coming.
"Da Qiao, why are you here?"
Mo Tianqiao replied timidly: "Second aunt, how is Tiange like? I'll take a look at her." Because the fourth lady has been sick all the time, she is not allowed to come at home. Tianqiao is very strange to this fourth lady.
"Tiange is awake, you are really interested. Come in and sit down."
"Um."
Seeing Mo Tianqiao coming in with his mother, Tiange jumped up: "Tianqiao!"
"Tiange, have a good meal!" The fourth lady looked at her reproachfully, then smiled and said to Mo Tianqiao, "Tianqiao, sit for a while, and the fourth aunt will give you a bowl of noodles, should you eat long noodles or dragon beard noodles?"
Mo Tianqiao quickly shook his head: "Second aunt, no need, I've been eating." The family said that she could not go to the fourth aunt's house to eat. Although she didn't take it seriously, she could not be too casual when she was a guest at other people's house.
The fourth lady didn't force herself, so she went to the kitchen to pick up a few fruits sent by Aunt Awang, washed them and took them over: "Eat the plums, this is the fresh plums sent by Aunt Awang next door, and the fresh plums picked."
Mo Tianqiao hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Fourth Aunt."
Seeing that she was so polite, the fourth lady praised her for a few more words before entering the inner room and letting the two children talk.
"Tiange, why did you fall in the ancestral hall? I heard from my father that you even threw down the spiritual position of your ancestors."
Mo Tiange was about to say what she saw, but hesitated for a moment: "I... I was accidentally."
"Grandpa was very angry when he heard about it. He said that it was disrespectful to his ancestors. The girl entered the ancestral hall and threw the ancestor's spiritual position. Originally, Grandpa said that he would punish you, but other grandpas said that you are still young and ignorant and there is nothing to punish, so Grandpa is not angry anymore."
When she heard that she made her grandfather angry, Mo Tiange buried her head in the food. She was very afraid of her grandfather because she didn't like her mother and didn't like her.
"But it's okay now. Where did you hit it, does it still hurt?"
"My head hurts a little, everything else is fine." Thinking of the ancestor tablet she fell down, she was a little confused, "Tian Qiao, why can't girls enter the ancestral hall? The ancestor at the top is also a girl?"
"Ah? How did you know?"
"I...I saw the name, it should be the name of a woman." She would tell Tian Qiao about anything she had, but for some reason, she thought it was incredible, so she should not tell others about such an incredible thing first. Especially when the person said that her mother was not saved, she didn't want her mother to know.
"I don't know either, I'll go back and ask my grandpa."
"Forget it, don't ask, otherwise grandpa will be angry again."
Mo Tianqiao thought about it and felt that it was the case, so he stopped talking and asked her, "When will you go to school?"
"Let's go tomorrow, I'm ready."
"Okay, I have something fun to take to school tomorrow to play with."
"OK."
In the afternoon, Uncle Awang next door went to the town to invite a doctor. When he saw Mo Tiange jumping around, he took the pulse and said that he didn't need to take medicine anymore. It was very good.
The fourth lady finally felt relieved. She went to the kitchen herself, fryed a plate of vegetables, fryed tofu with minced meat, and asked Aunt Awang to buy pig's trotters from the butcher in the village, and stewed a can of pig's trotter soup.
When Mo Tiange saw these, he was very greedy. There were no common meat and fish at home, let alone so many good dishes.
The fourth lady divided some pig's trotter soup and asked Mo Tiange to send it to the next door. The mother and daughter had a good dinner and went to bed to rest.
