Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 1584 - 1586: What’s Wrong with Her Body?

Yang Dong was pondering whether he should avoid suspicion or refuse her offer.

But Li Chuntao just got on the carriage, leaving him unable to say no.

He tugged at the corner of his mouth, oh well, since that’s the case, let’s go together.

So he said, "Let’s go buy some rice, flour, meat, and other food at the market. The carriage can’t enter the market, so I’ll find a place to park it first, and then we can walk in."

"Alright, let’s go quickly then. Just right, I need to buy a few things too," Li Chuntao smiled.

Actually, she had noticed Yang Dong’s conflicted and troubled expression, but she wanted to follow him anyway, so she ignored it.

Yang Dong carried on, drove the carriage to a spot close to the market, and parked it there.

So the two of them got down from the carriage and headed toward the market.

As soon as they entered the market, a child from a meat stall waved in their direction, shouting, "Chuntao sister, Chuntao sister, you’re here, haven’t seen you in a long time."

Yang Dong was quite surprised that Li Chuntao knew someone at the market.

Seeing Yang Dong’s surprised expression, Li Chuntao just smiled at him and walked towards the meat stall, saying to the child, "Sister has been busy with some things at home lately, have you been behaving well?"

"Of course, I have been, I’m even helping my mom look after the meat stall," the child said proudly.

At that moment, a woman came out from the meat stall, and upon seeing Li Chuntao, smiled widely, "Ah, Chuntao’s here, how’s your health? Feeling better?"

Being asked about her health made Li Chuntao feel a bit awkward; she worried Yang Dong might overthink things, so she quickly replied, "I’m much better, thanks for your concern, Ma’am."

At this moment, Yang Dong indeed was overthinking; he wondered, what’s wrong with Li Chuntao’s health? Why did the woman ask like that?

"That’s good to hear," the woman said as she cut off a piece of meat, about two or three pounds, and handed it to Li Chuntao, "Here, Chuntao, take this home to nourish yourself and have a little treat."

Seeing the woman’s enthusiasm, Li Chuntao declined, "No, no, Ma’am, you know I don’t eat meat."

Despite her words, the enthusiastic woman insisted, pulling Li Chuntao’s hand to give her the meat, "This meat has fat and lean portions, you can use the fat to make dishes, if not for you, give it to Alu."

The child beside them chimed in, "Sister, meat is so delicious, why don’t you eat it?"

"Sister is afraid of getting fat," Li Chuntao confessed with a slightly embarrassed smile. She knew meat was delicious; she used to eat it a lot, only recently had she stopped.

"Sister, what’s there to fear about getting fat? You’d still be as pretty as you are now even if you were."

"..." Li Chuntao didn’t quite know how to respond. She didn’t think she looked good when she was heavier, so she just chose not to continue the topic and instead turned to Yang Dong, "Do you want to buy meat? This woman’s meat is very fresh and good, if you want to buy some, get it here."

Yang Dong was still in a daze, thinking, is Li Chuntao’s health really that fragile? If she’s not well, why doesn’t she eat meat?

After all, eating meat could help her regain her strength, just as he was thinking this, he heard Li Chuntao’s question, and just as he was about to answer, the kid beside them spoke first.

"Sister, who is he? Is he your fiancé? The future brother-in-law?"
