The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 203 Blocking People
Outside the door, Zhao's voice finally returned, but the crying scream and trembling accusation shook the entire yard.
There were traces of tears on her face, her eyes were wide open, and her fingers were trembling as she pointed at Xie Xinghua. Every word she said seemed to be spoken with all her strength. The emotions of fear and anger condensed in the air into a force that could not be ignored.
The people in the village moved at the news, and the gossip spread quickly. Those villagers who had witnessed the incident were all frightened when they recalled the flash of the cold knife in Xie Xinghua's hand.
They rushed around to tell others, and soon, figures looking for the village director could be seen shuttling from one end of the village to the other, with anxiety and anticipation written all over everyone's face.
Inside the kitchen, Xie Xinghua's actions came to an abrupt halt because of Su Yu's reminder. The dough was hanging in the air, and her hands were frozen above the steaming heat.
Su Yu's eyes were warm and firm, and her words were like a gentle spring breeze, slowly soothing Xie Xinghua's anxiety.
At that moment, the air in the kitchen seemed to freeze, leaving only Su Yu's gentle comfort echoing in the space.
When Su Yu mentioned Daya's safety and the high ransom, Xie Xinghua's world seemed to lose its color in an instant.
Her body swayed like a leaf about to wither in the wind. Fortunately, Su Yu's timely and firm hand gave her support and prevented her from falling.
One hundred taels of silver was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for this family. It not only represented wealth, but also a huge rock pressing on their hearts, making it hard to breathe.
Su Yu's next words were like a ray of light, penetrating the haze in Xie Xinghua's heart.
Curing the trafficker's disease in exchange for Daya's freedom sounds like a gamble, but it is full of hope.
The light in Xie Xinghua's eyes rekindled, which was the expectation for the future and the endless gratitude to Su Yu.
In the end, Xie Xinghua's kneeling thanks was not only an expression of gratitude for Su Yu's help, but also a declaration of the long wait for the next seven days.
Su Yu's response was full of understanding and support among family members, making the family relationship even deeper.
Xie Xinghua leaned against the table, counting down the time silently in her heart. Every passing second seemed to be a step towards Daya's return.
At this moment, her heart was not only full of expectations, but she also secretly made up her mind that for Daya and for this family, no matter how many difficulties there were in the future, she would face them bravely.
As she slowly approached the fire, warm light enveloped her, as if indicating that the fire of hope had been ignited and light was about to come.
He grinned happily and said, "Oh, the Zhao family is finally going to split up. This is what I have been looking forward to! I have to fill my stomach first and have the strength to have a good argument with her."
"Da Ya is a very stubborn child. She always blamed me for not living apart from her grandmother earlier. In the end, it was me, as a mother, who accidentally dragged her down this time."
"When our eldest daughter comes back tired and exhausted, and sees that Zhao and I have gone our separate ways, she will surely smile like a flower, and be so happy in her heart. Oh, it's so beautiful just to think about it."
Su Yu looked at Xie Xinghua's eyes that were sparkling with hope, and his heart couldn't help but soften. He really couldn't bear to tell her the cold reality right now and break this rare expectation.
However, Daya’s desire to go home is no longer as strong as before.
After all, there was a man named Zhao who was determined to kill her and was eyeing her covetously.
Alas, let’s leave these complicated and confusing matters to be resolved slowly in the future.
Children's minds are fickle. Maybe after Xie Xinghua's sweet words, Daya's attitude will change.
Beside the stove, the water was boiling happily, making gurgling sounds. Xie Xinghua lightly threw the noodles into the pot one by one, and they quickly floated to the surface of the water like happy little fish.
Then she carefully added a few green cabbage leaves to dance with the noodles in the boiling water.
Before serving, Xie Xinghua deftly added a few drops of crystal lard and sprinkled a pinch of salt. It was simple, but fragrant, and a bowl of fresh and refined noodles was ready.
Su Yu pursed her lips, as if she could smell the tempting aroma. At this moment, her stomach made a protesting sound. Although a busy morning resulted in a table full of dishes, she did not have time to taste even a bite.
"Sister-in-law, your cooking skills are amazing. The aroma is so tempting! Do you have any extra? Give me a bowl to satisfy my craving."
Seeing Su Yu's greedy look, Xie Xinghua felt a warm current in her heart and replied with a smile: "Yes, I made some more today. Second brother, Xier, you guys should come and try it too!"
Indeed, Xie Xinghua's preparations today were extremely sufficient. During this period of time, she always liked to cook a lot, and she ate in big mouthfuls, as if if she ate less, Zhao would be taking advantage.
Although Jiang Ziling and Xier had already had lunch, they couldn't resist Su Yu's relish and couldn't help but try half a bowl each.
Xie Xinghua herself was busy bringing the food into the house and taking care of her family first, and she didn't even have time to eat a bite.
In the courtyard, Zhao still looked distraught, holding her money box tightly and refusing to let go.
On the side, Jiang Xunzhong was packing his luggage silently.
The neighbors around noticed the huge wealth in Zhao's money box and were curious about the upcoming division of property. They gathered around the place and were unwilling to leave.
Upon hearing the big news of a knife attack in the village, the village director rushed over in a panic, his face pale and obviously frightened.
Human life is of paramount importance; he understands this better than anyone else.
Xie Xinghua is usually a very obedient person. When something happened, she was probably forced into losing her own opinion.
But no matter what, one must take responsibility for hurting others. What will happen to her family if she is sentenced to a heavy sentence?
With a heavy heart, the village director walked to the gate of the courtyard, grabbed the person next to him and asked, "Is he okay? Why didn't you stop him?"
"It's okay. No one was hurt. They just hit the box. Now, they are busy discussing the division of the property."
Hearing this, the village director finally let go of his worry. His throat was so dry that it was smoking, and he swallowed several times.
Well, as long as people are safe, that’s more important than anything else.
As for dividing the family, that is not impossible.
There is chaos in this family day after day, and sooner or later there will be a big mess.
He calmed himself down and stepped into the yard.
When Zhao saw the village director coming, she felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw. She crawled over almost on her knees, holding the box with the axe stuck in it in her arms.
"Village chief, you have to give me some advice!"
The strange, pungent smell that emanated from her was like a mixture of stale mildew and cheap spices.
