A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best
Chapter 57 Come to the door
Finally, when Si Chengxu felt that he could not bear it any longer, Li Xiaoxiao stopped what he was doing, swiftly put the things into the space, disinfected the wound again, and bandaged it.
At this time, Si Chengxu was sweating from the pain, but he tried his best to endure it and did not cry out in pain during the whole process. Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but admire him. What great willpower this must take.
"I'm going to boil the medicine. Don't move. I bought you clothes in the county today. I'll call my father to change you." Li Xiaoxiao was a little out of breath due to exhaustion. Sun was not in good condition right now. She had to boil the medicine by herself. Besides, Si Chengxu was in so much pain all the time. Sweating too much would not be good for the wound.
Si Chengxu only nodded lightly and watched Li Xiaoxiao's back as she left. She had too many secrets. The technique she used to sew his wound just now was definitely the best in history. He was unconscious and didn't see it the first time, but he saw it clearly this time. Even the most experienced imperial physician in the palace had never done this, but she performed the whole set of movements smoothly and skillfully. Who is she?
Soon Li Xiaoxiao prepared some medicine and brought it to him. His wound was only a surface tear of the skin and flesh, not too serious. He would be able to get out of bed and walk tomorrow. I originally wanted to send him away, but it seems like I’ll have to wait a few more days.
After dinner, the family sat together and talked. Zhao Lai Xi would definitely not let go of what happened today. He spent so much money but got nothing in the end.
Sun sat next to Li Ruolan, looking sad, with sorrow in her eyes almost overflowing. Li Dahai was also sighing, wondering what to do if Zhao Laixi came again tomorrow.
"Dad, Mom, don't think too much. We have separated long ago. We did not accept the betrothal gifts. We do not acknowledge this marriage." Li Xiaoxiao advised them. It was not a big deal in the first place, but it made them so worried, as if the sky was about to fall.
"If he dares to come again, I will never forgive him. He is forcing a woman to stay."
"But your grandmother has been admitted." Sun said softly, obviously not believing what Li Xiaoxiao said.
"The marriage is settled only with the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. He doesn't have either of these, so why should he marry my sister?"
"What should we do if he comes to make trouble again tomorrow?" Li Dahai had never met Zhao Laixi, but he knew from Sun's description that the man was not a good person.
"If he comes, I have my own way to deal with him, so don't worry." Li Xiaoxiao assured them.
Sure enough, the next day, Zhao Laixi came to the door, accompanied by the village head and several villagers from the same village.
Zhao Laixi stood at the door and yelled, "You bastards, you dare to put chin beans in my wine, get out of here now."
Yesterday, halfway through drinking, he started having diarrhea. It started with one person, but later all of them had to run to the toilet. Realizing something was wrong, they went to the inner room and saw that Li Ruolan had run away. Zhao Laixi knew it must have been done by a member of the Li family, but he couldn't help the stomachache. He didn't have to run to the toilet until the second half of the night. He was completely exhausted. He finally made it until dawn and went to find the head of their village.
Hearing the noise, Li Xiaoxiao carried a quiver on his back and held a bow and arrow, walked out the door, and said to Sun and Li Dahai, "Don't go out, I'll go take a look, don't worry I can handle it."
Li Dahai wanted to speak up to stop her, but Li Xiaoxiao had already walked away.
The door opened with a creak, and Si Chengxu strode out. He was wearing the new suit. He had a straight and slender figure and a handsome face. Standing in the crowd, he would definitely be someone that could be spotted at first sight.
"I'll go with you." The voice was low and unyielding.
Seeing that he had recovered well, Li Xiaoxiao went out first without saying a word.
Si Chengxu raised his legs and followed her. Li Xiaoxiao was not tall, only reaching his shoulders, but he saw her walking with big strides, looking free and natural, without any of the affectation of those women. He didn't know where she got the courage to face them alone.
Li Xiaoxiao opened the door quickly, and Si Chengxu followed her. After going out, he did not forget to close the door again to prevent anyone from sneaking in.
"I thought it was someone's cat or dog barking here." Li Xiaoxiao glanced around with a sharp gaze. The bearded man in the lead was Zhao Laixi. He looked like a bear and yet he wanted to marry her sister. He didn't even take a piss to see what he looked like.
There was also a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with his head held high and chest puffed out, his hands behind his back, his clothes neatly dressed, his hair combed neatly, and he stood straight and proud. He was probably the head of their village. If you didn't know him, you would think he was a high-ranking official in the court. Oh no, even high-ranking officials were not as impressive as him.
There were a few other people whispering to each other.
"Are you Li Xiaoxiao?" Zhao Lai Xi asked uncertainly. Old Mrs. Li had said that Li Xiaoxiao was a difficult person to deal with, but today she turned out to be nothing more than a skinny little girl.
"Yes, I am the famous Li Xiaoxiao." Li Xiaoxiao glanced at him with a proud tone.
Zhao Lai Xi couldn't do anything about it in one sentence. What a bullshit fame.
Si Chengxu raised the corners of his eyes slightly.
"It was you who put croton seeds in the wine yesterday. I almost died in the toilet. You better hand over Li Ruolan, or I'll show you how I'm going to take care of you." Zhao Laixi threatened. His anus was still hurting and it hurt when he walked.
"I don't know what you are talking about. Yesterday you raped a girl, and I haven't reported you to the government yet, but you came to my door yourself. It's a good opportunity for us to go to the county magistrate together and let him judge the case." Li Xiaoxiao's words were sonorous and powerful.
Zhao Laixi's arrogance immediately subsided a lot. He was not in the right in the first place. Since ancient times, people have been afraid of officials, and he was no exception. Thinking of so many people around, he couldn't afford to be afraid of a little girl.
"I spent thirty taels of silver, and the county magistrate can't be on your side." Zhao Lai Xi shouted at the top of his voice.
"My family has long been separated from the Li family. When will it be their turn to decide my sister's marriage? Go find whoever took your money."
"Hehe, your matter is really hard to argue. Why don't we go to the Li family and see what they have to say." Zhao Jiatunlizheng cleared his throat, looking a little impatient. He was sleeping with his wife in his arms early in the morning, but Zhao Laixi dragged him here.
Zhao Laixi, who was about to retort, realized that this made sense. The Li family had taken his money, so how could they just sit there and act as if nothing had happened? He agreed immediately.
Li Xiaoxiao also agreed. She told the Li family to spit out what they had eaten. She turned around and went home to put down her bow and arrow. She said a few words to Li Dahai before heading towards the Li family. Si Chengxu followed her without saying a word. Li Xiaoxiao did not stop him. Anyway, he had already passed the clear road, so it was up to him to go if he wanted.
There is not much work in the fields at this time of year. The third brother, Li Dahe, went to the county town to work as a farmhand, and the fourth brother, Li, was the only strong laborer at home. After finishing breakfast and just walking to the door, he wanted to take a walk in the fields.
The loud knocks on the door startled him. Before he could curse back, Zhao Laixi's angry voice came from outside the door: "Open the door, open the door quickly."
