The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it

Xier, who was standing next to her, perhaps because she was too young to experience the feeling of sorrow, had a look of indifference on her little face. In comparison, Xie Qifen's nervousness seemed unnecessary.

Seeing this, Su Yu couldn't help but smile slightly, feeling secretly proud.

She thought that the fact that Xie Qifen was able to leave the house to buy medicine was undoubtedly a sign that the "husband-controlling skills" she taught her were beginning to show results.

"Sister, is the method I mentioned effective? As a man, you need to be careful. If you let your guard down for a moment, it will easily lead to trouble."

Su Yu said this half-jokingly and half-seriously, with a sly gleam in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Xie Qifen's face slightly turned red, and a sense of emptiness inexplicably rose in her heart: "I... I haven't tried it yet!" Hidden in these words was hesitation and a hint of fear of the unknown result.

Su Yu's suggestion was undoubtedly a gamble for Xie Qifen. Whenever she thought of it, her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand.

The idea of ​​trying has come up many times, but I have always been unable to put it into practice because of the high wall called "concern" in my heart.

But the money has been paid and the medicine has been purchased. Perhaps when Meng Yuanyou learned where the money went, he would feel distressed, but also understand the painstaking efforts made for his health and soften his heart.

Su Yu deeply understood that most women of this era regarded their husbands as the heaven in their lives, and asking them to suddenly become tough and independent was as difficult as moving mountains and filling the sea.

"Well, I wish you all the best in advance."

Su Yu said this, but he couldn't help but worry about his sister-in-law in his heart.

She knew Meng Yuanyou's temper very well. If she found out that He Dasao bought the medicine on her own initiative, she would probably be criticized and would not let it go. It might even cause a bigger storm.

As it turned out, Su Yu's worries were not unnecessary.

When Xie Qifen carefully carried the bowl of hot medicine and walked towards Meng Yuanyou with anticipation, his face suddenly became clouded.

Meng Yuanyou also secretly sought medical treatment and medication, but to little avail.

I have felt a slight improvement recently, but it is still unstable. I am planning to take a few more doses to consolidate the therapeutic effect.

Unexpectedly, his woman was smart enough to interfere.

He was furious, thinking that if the matter became known, how would his face be saved? For a moment, his anger burned like dry wood that had been ignited.

He waved his hand violently, and the bowl of medicine soup flew straight towards Xie Qifen like an out-of-control arrow.

The moment the scalding liquid penetrates the clothes and touches the skin, although it does not cause severe burns, the needle-like pain is enough to be remembered.

Looking at the mess on the ground, feeling the burning pain on his body, and thinking about the value of the medicine, the last line of defense in Xie Qifen's heart collapsed.

She raised her hand, and the emotions that had been accumulated for many years burst out at this moment. The crisp sound of a slap resounded throughout the courtyard and landed heavily on Meng Yuanyou's face, catching him off guard and leaving him stunned.

"Meng Yuanyou, do you think that my kindness to you is what you deserve? If you don't make progress yourself, how can I complain? When have I ever made you lose face outside? Now I am just thinking about your health. You treat me like this just to see a curator and take a few doses of medicine. You beat and scold me at every turn. What hope do you have in this kind of life?"

Years of forbearance and grievances, once they found an outlet, were like a long-imprisoned torrent that instantly broke free from its shackles. Xie Qifen's voice carried a power that could not be ignored, as if she wanted to let everyone in the village know her grievances and awakening.

What Su Yu said did make sense. She was not wrong at all. Meng Yuanyou was unreasonable, so why should she accommodate him and compromise?

The sunlight filtered through the sparse window lattices and fell onto Xie Qifen's furrowed brows. The frustration and anger seemed to have found a gap for release under the light.

Seeing the broken porcelain pieces and the spilled medicine on the ground, Xie Qifen felt a surge of anger, just like the unhealable crack in her heart.

She sneered, with a determined gleam in her eyes. Since her life was already shattered, she might as well make it more thorough.

She waved her hand suddenly, and the teapot, dishes and bowls on the table fell to the ground. The crisp sound of breaking echoed in the small space, like the cry from the depths of her heart.

"You are a coward with nothing but pretense!"

Xie Qifen shouted angrily, picked up the wooden chair beside him and threw it at Meng Yuanyou like a storm.

Words and actions echoed each other, and every curse was accompanied by a throw, filling the air in the room with a thick smell of gunpowder.

Meng Yuanyou seemed helpless in the face of this sudden storm. He tried to dissuade them, but every time he opened his mouth he was interrupted by flying objects. He had to dodge left and right, as if he was playing a game of avoidance with no ability to fight back.

"I must have been blind to commit myself to a loser like you!"

Every scold was like a heavy hammer, hitting Meng Yuanyou's heart.

As Xie Qifen's scolding became more intense, the fear in Meng Yuanyou's heart rose like a tide.

He knew very well that such a quarrel would undoubtedly expose his incompetence and become a laughing stock in the village.

Life in the village is peaceful and monotonous, and any disturbance can cause an uproar.

The quarrel in the Meng family quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding neighbors. The crowd gathered like a tide, surrounding the Meng family's courtyard.

Although the noise penetrated the courtyard walls, the specific reason remained a mystery, causing everyone to speculate privately.

Amidst the discussions, Old Man Niu and Old Lady Niu looked extremely ugly.

They knew very well that if the reason behind the quarrel were leaked, it would be a devastating blow to Meng Yuanyou.

The two exchanged anxious glances, and Meng Yuanyou's mother, Zhao Sanmei, hurried out the door, trying to calm the situation that was about to get out of control.

"It's just a momentary quarrel between the couple. It will be over soon. Please go back."

Zhao Sanmei's tone was pleading as she tried to disperse the crowd.

However, there are always some people who refuse to give up and insist on finding out the truth.

"Aunt Zhao, although Sister Qifen is usually impatient, she is also a reasonable person. Why is she so abnormal today?"

The curious people kept asking questions, and Zhao Sanmei forced herself to smile and tried to get away with it.

At this time, Meng Yuanyou's father, Meng Yuanfeng, could not bear it any longer. He frowned and shouted in an unquestionable tone:

"Every family has its own troubles. If you all gather around to watch the fun, aren't you afraid of trouble? Just go away!"

Under Meng Yuanfeng's tough attitude, the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving the house in a mess.

Xie Qifen leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. After the anger, there was deep fatigue.

Meng Yuanyou's voice echoed in the room, mixed with astonishment and confusion:

"Are you...crazy?"

Xie Qifen snorted coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes: "I just hate that I realized it too late. The humiliation I suffered in the Meng family over the years was all because of my blindness."
