Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Outside the room was a small courtyard. In the courtyard, there was a water tank filled with water. Lu Keer bent down and looked at her reflection in the water.

She was thin and small, with messy hair covering most of her face. Brushing her hair aside, Lu Keer saw a pair of phoenix eyes embedded in her palm-sized face. Her nose was pretty and her lips were beautiful. Lu Keer nodded with satisfaction. This girl had beautiful facial features, but unfortunately her skin was dark yellow, her body was thin, and she was usually very unconfident, giving people the impression that she was ugly and thin.

Lu Ke'er scooped a spoonful of water, avoided the cloth on her forehead, washed her face, and then stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking up. The green mountains in the distance were rolling. A thin mist rose from the mountainside, like a white veil covering the mountains.

From now on, she will live in this small mountain village.

Although she was caught off guard, she had no choice.

Lu Ke'er took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, then exhaled slowly, her mood gradually relaxing.

God allowed her to be reborn and occupy the body of the original owner, so she would live well for herself and for the original owner.

"Oh, isn't this Ke'er? I didn't expect you to be so lucky. I heard that your engagement was broken off the other day, how dare you come out here? If it were me, I would rather be hit to death." The door of the yard next door opened, and a woman in her thirties with high cheekbones and a pointed chin, wearing coarse cloth, was about to pour a basin of dirty water. When she saw Lu Ke'er with a cloth wrapped around her forehead, she shouted loudly.

Lu Ke'er recognized her. She was from the neighboring village of Majia Village. She was about the same age as Ji, but she liked to compete with Ji in everything. This woman was sarcastic and mean, and liked to spread rumors and gossip.

Lu Ke'er glanced over with a cold look.

Ji, who came right after, was so angry that she trembled when she heard this: "Ma Dani, our Lu family has never offended you. How can you say such hurtful words?"

"Wow——" The dirty water splashed towards the Lu family's yard and almost splashed on Lu Ke'er and Ji.

"Didn't your girl break off the engagement? Isn't that the truth? And you won't let people say it?" Ma Dani threw the basin to the ground, put her hands on her hips and started to curse, "Do you still think you are still a relative of the Su family in this town? You poor bastards, you still want to cling to them? They are not blind!"

"You..." Ji's face turned pale, her lips trembled and she couldn't speak.

"Besides, how could someone like you when you are so unlucky? They are quite kind of you to have delayed the marriage until now. Ji Li Niang, how could you give birth to such a useless daughter? She won't die even if she hits her head against a pillar. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, your girl won't be able to get married in the future! Who would marry an ugly, disfigured girl that no one wants? She'd rather die!"

The quarrel between the two attracted some neighbors who had gotten up early to work. They stood aside and watched the excitement, pointing and talking at Lu Ke'er.

Ji was so angry that the blood rushed to her head, and tears welled up in her eyes: "Ma Dani, how can you be so vicious? Ke'er grew up under your care, how can you ruin her reputation like this?"

In this world, once a woman's reputation is ruined, her life is ruined.

Lu Keer glanced at the arrogant Ma, then looked at the people around who were watching the fun and not minding the trouble. Suddenly, she raised her lips and said loudly, "Mother, why don't you understand? Aunt Ma said this because she likes Mr. Su! Some time ago, Mr. Su brought his son here, and Aunt Ma secretly told Mr. Su bad things about our family. I heard it all! Aunt Ma told Mr. Su that her Jin Feng is beautiful and capable, much better than me! She asked Mr. Su why he didn't choose her Jin Feng! She also said that as long as Mr. Su chooses her Jin Feng as his daughter-in-law, her family will not accept any betrothal gifts, and will even give her to his son!"

Wow--

The eyes of the onlookers widened as they imagined a big drama.

No wonder Su Xiucai wanted to cancel the engagement. Did he have other ideas? He didn't want a penny of betrothal gift, and he even gave away a virgin girl. Only a fool would not agree to this.

Some people were also disgusted by Ma Dani's behavior.

"This Ma Dani is so disgusting. She will do anything to get her daughter married in town. No wonder she always targets the Lu family and speaks ill of them all the time."

"You, you...bullshit! When did I tell Mr. Su about this?" Seeing that everyone around her looked down on her, Ma Dani was so angry that her pointed face turned pale and blue.

"Aunt Ma, do you dare to say that you don't have the intention of becoming Mr. Su's relative? Do you dare to say that you don't often say bad things about our Lu family? Do you dare to swear?" Lu Ke'er said in a loud voice.

Ma Dani glared at Lu Keer fiercely.

She didn't dare to swear. Because she really wanted to marry into the Su family, and she often complained to her maid Jinfeng that Lu Ke'er was ugly and could not compare to her at all. If it weren't for the Lu family's desire to repay the favor, the Su family would not have arranged a marriage with the Lu family. Under her constant brainwashing, her daughter Jinfeng felt that she was a golden phoenix, and that she should be the one to marry into the Su family. Therefore, she was jealous and resentful of Lu Ke'er, and mocked her every time she met her.

But Ma Dani didn't tell Su Xiucai directly. She just spoke ill of the Lu family in front of and behind others, and did her best to discredit the Lu family.

However, Lu Ke'er now revealed the desires that she had buried in her heart in this way and exposed them to everyone. How could she not be angry?

Ma Dani stared at Lu Ke'er and found that this girl who usually kept her head down, cowardly and self-deprecating, now stood up straight, with her head held high, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and looked at her calmly with a half-smile in her eyes.

"You stinky girl, you're looking for death! I'll tear you apart!" Ma Dani ran to hit Lu Ke'er angrily. Unexpectedly, she stepped on the water stains she had just splashed on the ground, and her feet slipped, and she fell on her back.

"Haha! Haha——" laughter was heard all around.

Ma Dani was lying on the ground, sweating from the pain. She was ashamed and angry, pointing at Lu Ke'er and scolding, "You stinky girl, you should have been hit to death that day! You are wasting our rice and grain if you live! Ha, I almost forgot, your house will soon become like Lao Lei's, right? When that happens, we won't take you in! You can just wait to be homeless and starve to death in the fields!"

"Don't worry, our Lu family has always been kind to others! God will help us! Not only will we not starve to death, but we will also pay off our debts as soon as possible!" Lu Ke'er looked around and spoke loudly.

"Is Lu Ke'er crazy? How dare she say such big words?" someone whispered.

"Oh, I admire her for having such ambition at such a young age! I never noticed it before." Others also said.

Lu Ke'er didn't care about other people's reactions. She looked at Ma Dani.

"Auntie Ma, do you know who is in the 18 levels of hell? Anyone who sows discord, slanders and harms others, is slick-tongued, makes clever arguments, or lies will be sent to the Tongue-Pulling Hell after death! When the time comes, the little ghost will pry open your mouth, clamp your tongue with pliers, and pluck it out alive. It won't be plucked out all at once, but it will be stretched and pulled slowly, and then you will be sent to the Scissors Hell and the Iron Tree Hell."

"Ah!" everyone exclaimed.

Ma Dany turned pale with fright.

Ancient people were very superstitious. The villagers lived in remote mountain villages all year round, with little information and most of them were ignorant. After listening to Lu Ke'er's story, they believed it halfway.

"Ke'er, how...how do you know all this?" asked an honest-looking uncle.

"Some time ago, I met a monk begging for alms at the entrance of the village. He told me this. He also said that good people will be rewarded, and bad people will be punished. It's not that there will be no retribution, but the time has not come yet. Look, right after she scolded someone, didn't Aunt Ma slip on the dirty water she had thrown at her?"

Everyone thought about it and felt it made sense, and nodded frequently.

"Then... why does your family always have bad luck? You even wanted to commit suicide." asked a tall and thin woman.

Lu Ke'er recognized her. It was Lin, who lived next door to Lei Qianggen's house. She was usually good friends with Ma Dani, and they both liked to gossip.

"I bumped into the pillar in the corner by accident that day, I didn't mean to die. Besides, my family has been unlucky in the past few years, and it's all because of that villain! The monk said that my family will eventually turn bad luck around! That villain, sooner or later he will suffer the consequences of his own actions!" Lu Ke'er's voice was cold and her words were sonorous.

A few years ago, Lu's father fell off a cliff and became paralyzed. Lu Ke'er was full of doubts. Lu's father was young and strong, and he was agile. He often went to the forest to cut wood. He was familiar with the terrain. How could he fall off the cliff? Lu Ke'er felt that something was wrong.

This is a good opportunity to throw a stone to test the waters. If that villain were here, he would definitely take follow-up actions after hearing this.

Everyone looked at the girl who was standing straight with sharp eyes, and fell silent.

It was as if they were meeting Lu Ke'er for the first time, and doubts arose in their hearts. Is this still the same self-deprecating and timid girl from before? Can a serious injury really change a person's personality?

Lu Ke'er doesn't care what others think. She can't be the Lu Ke'er of the past. Her changes will be revealed sooner or later. Why not take this opportunity to be her true self!
