The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 14 Evil comes with evil consequences
Although his words were full of disdain for Jiang Youfu, they also revealed a hint of surprise at the tenacity of life.
Jiang Ziling responded in a deep and powerful voice: "The wicked will be punished by God, there is no need for us to worry too much."
There was a sharp light in his eyes, as if expressing his firm belief in justice in the world.
Su Yu nodded slightly and agreed: "That does make sense. Even if he is lucky enough not to die, he must have been badly injured and in excruciating pain. This can be considered a punishment for his evil deeds."
After experiencing this sudden change, when the couple returned home, the east was already slightly bright, and the dawn light quietly fell, announcing the arrival of a new day.
The courtyard door creaked open, and the young daughter Xier came into view. She stood alone in front of the door, her eyes filled with tears and her face pale. She was obviously awakened by the previous noise. After waking up, she did not see her parents and her heart was filled with fear and helplessness.
Su Yu was heartbroken. He quickly stepped forward, took Xier into his arms, and gently wiped away the cold tears on her cheeks.
Looking at her daughter's shivering body, she thought to herself that the child must have been waiting alone in the cold night wind for a long time.
Jiang Ziling was also heartbroken and walked over quickly. Xier broke free from Su Yu's arms, threw herself into her father's arms, buried her head deeply in his broad chest, and sobbed silently.
Jiang Ziling patted her back gently and comforted her softly until Xier's emotions gradually calmed down. Then he carefully carried her back to the warm bed and patiently coaxed her into sleep again.
The twists and turns of this night made Su Yu completely lose sleep, so she simply got up and walked to the stove to prepare breakfast for her family.
The firewood crackled, a pot of hot water gradually boiled under the licking of the fire, and the sweet potato porridge was also rolling happily in the pot, and the orange-yellow color looked particularly tempting in the morning light.
However, looking at this pot of light sweet potato porridge, Su Yu always felt that something was missing.
She remembered that Jiang Ziling often brought back a few fat rabbits from the fields these days, adding a bit of richness to the originally bland dining table.
Over time, they almost forgot about going to the river to fish.
Now that there is very little rabbit meat left, Su Yu decided that it was time to return to fishing and give his family a change of taste.
Having made up his mind, Su Yu immediately took action.
While the porridge was cooking, she quietly walked out of the house and set foot on the path leading to the river.
At this time, the sky was already turning a light pale white, and all things were gradually waking up under the baptism of the morning light.
With his familiarity with the flow of rivers and the principles of light refraction, Su Yu quickly found the best fishing spot.
Her eyes were sharp, her hand was holding the harpoon, her movements were precise and agile, and soon, several lively fish fell into the wooden barrel. The clear river water splashed her skirt, but failed to affect her joy of the harvest.
Carrying the fully loaded wooden barrel, Su Yu returned home along the winding path.
Jiang Ziling was busy at the stove, holding a wooden spoon and gently stirring the sweet potato porridge in the pot. When he saw Su Yu suddenly appear, he couldn't help but ask, "Where have you been?"
Su Yu raised the heavy wooden barrel in his hand, with a proud look on his face: "I went fishing, how was it, a good catch, right?"
Jiang Ziling looked at the fish jumping around in the bucket and suddenly realized, "So you went to the river. I thought all the fish nearby were caught!"
Su Yu teased playfully, "Is it far? I think it's because you don't have good legs and feet that you think it's far!"
Jiang Ziling was not angry. Instead, he smiled and admitted frankly: "Well, what you said does make some sense."
Su Yu handled the fish meat skillfully. She carefully removed the fish bones and checked repeatedly to ensure that every bite of fish meat was delicate and boneless.
Then she put the chopped fish into the pot and slow-cooked it with the sweet potato porridge.
In an instant, the aroma of fish and rice intertwined and filled the entire kitchen. She sprinkled a little salt and green chopped green onions, and the aroma of this bowl of fish porridge became more mellow and attractive, and its deliciousness was unparalleled.
On this ordinary morning, a bowl of hot fish porridge not only warms the stomach, but also warms the heart.
The little girl Xier sat at the dining table, her round eyes sparkling with excitement. The chopsticks in her hand danced quickly, picking up pieces of tempting dishes and eating with relish, with shiny soup hanging from the corners of her mouth.
Ever since the gentle and amiable elder sister, Su Yu, came into the family, Xier's eating quality has improved dramatically as if by magic.
The originally slightly thin little face is now plump and round, with a healthy blush, like a peach illuminated by the rising sun, making people want to pinch it gently.
After breakfast, Su Yu stood in the simple but tidy kitchen, skillfully organizing the items that she had carefully prepared over the past two days. She had considered every detail carefully and meticulously.
She turned and looked at Jiang Ziling who was busy in the main hall. Her bright eyes were full of determination and resolve. "The Zhao family should have no time to pick a fight with us these days. I have to take this opportunity to go into the mountains."
When Jiang Ziling heard this, he felt an indescribable worry in his heart.
He knew very well that the mountains were full of dangers and wild beasts, and it was especially dangerous for a woman.
However, looking at Su Yu's resolute look, he knew that his dissuasion would only seem pale and powerless.
He sighed deeply and could only repeatedly remind them, "Be careful. There are many ferocious beasts in the mountains. Don't go too deep. Regardless of whether you can collect herbs or not, you must return home before dark. Remember, remember."
Su Yu smiled slightly, the determination in her eyes intertwined with Jiang Ziling's concern. She nodded solemnly and responded, "Don't worry, I will be careful."
Then, she carried the bamboo basket full of necessary items on her back and, with firm steps, set out on the road leading to the mountains.
Jiang Ziling watched her figure gradually disappear at the end of the winding mountain road, and the prayers in his heart surged like a tide: "God bless her, don't let anything happen to her!"
Su Yu walked southeast along the winding Sweet Potato Hill. The sunlight shone through the lush leaves, casting mottled shadows and paving a golden road for her.
Her target was the thatched hut hidden in the mountains and forests that Jiang Ziling had mentioned. In case she could not go down the mountain at night, it would at least provide a shelter from the wind and rain.
Along the way, she was like a vigilant cheetah, scanning the surrounding environment with sharp eyes. At this moment, she was still at the foot of the mountain, the sun was shining brightly, and she occasionally encountered some small animals, such as agile hares, pheasants flapping their wings ready to fly, and those unnamed birds singing on the branches.
This time he went into the mountains not for hunting, so when facing these creatures, Su Yu just admired them quietly and had no intention of invading them.
