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

Xier nodded solemnly and firmly, her eyes showing a mixture of courage and uneasiness. She was looking forward to expressing herself freely like other children, but was also afraid of the pain brought by acupuncture.

Su Yu adjusted the gold needles on Jiang Ziling's legs from time to time while silently calculating the time. When everything was ready, she got up to prepare the hot compress materials needed next, silently praying in her heart that all these efforts could bring laughter to this family as soon as possible.

Erya and Sanya's eyes seemed to be attracted by an invisible magnet, glued to the scene in front of them. Even though sleepiness came like a tide and their eyes turned red from yawning several times, they did not want to move a step, as if if they left, they would miss the most exciting performance in the world.

It was not until Xie Xinghua's voice blew past their ears like a gentle spring breeze and reminded them several times that the two sisters exchanged glances reluctantly, their steps slow and heavy, as if every step was saying goodbye to something precious, and finally turned and left.

In the following days, Su Yu's life was filled with acupuncture treatments of various sizes, and her hands became a bridge of healing and hope.

Fortunately, Xier, the most worrying little patient, is making exceptionally good progress under Su Yu's careful treatment.

Although the little girl was young, when facing those gleaming silver needles, her tears kept rolling down her face, but she miraculously kept her body still, and swallowed the pain with a strength beyond her age.

Xie Xinghua was filled with gratitude when she saw how hard Su Yu worked.

In order to repay Su Yu for treating Jiang Wangshan, she led Erya and Sanya to take on all the chores in the household, from cleaning the house to cooking and washing clothes.

Xie Xinghua's kindness not only reduced Su Yu's burden, but also added a bit of warmth to this small family.

Especially when Erya tried to imitate Su Yu's way of cooking, the spatula seemed clumsy in her hand, but when the delicious dish came out of the pot, even Su Yu couldn't help but admire Erya's talent in cooking. This not only made Erya's face full of a sense of accomplishment, but also made her love the art of cooking even more.

Today, another market day has arrived, and Su Yu also has a consultation assignment at the hospital, so he has to prepare to leave in a hurry.

When Xie Xinghua saw this, she immediately stepped forward to help. Whether she was driving the carriage or packing the luggage, her movements were so quick and efficient that people could not help but admire her.

This tacit understanding and friendship makes everything around seem warmer.

However, all this seemed quite different in Zhao's eyes.

Zhao was already feeling unhappy, and seeing Xie Xinghua interacting so attentively with others made her feel even more upset.

Xie Xinghua not only helped with cooking and washing clothes, but also took the initiative to take on rough work such as feeding livestock. Her busy figure made Zhao's dissatisfaction snowball.

She originally wanted to find some excuse to cause trouble while Su Yu was out, but then she thought of Xie Xinghua's recent dominance, which was even more ruthless than Su Yu's, and she couldn't help but back off.

After all, no one wants the peace and tranquility that has been hard-earned at home to be disrupted again.

Zhao suppressed her unhappiness, carried Dazhuang on her back, staggered into the kitchen, and started cooking noodles.

Without Xie Xinghua's help these days, the elderly woman was almost bent over by the burden of life.

From chopping wood to make a fire, to preparing three meals a day, to washing clothes, cleaning the yard, and even taking care of all the trivial matters of Dazhuang, she had to do everything alone.

Due to financial difficulties, Jiang Xunzhong goes out before dawn every day and returns only after dark, making it difficult for him to share household chores.

Fang Qin was bedridden due to illness. Apart from waiting for meals, even small tasks like bringing bowls to the bedside had to be done by Zhao.

Although Zhao would complain every time she served the meal, Fang Qin knew her situation well and could only accept it silently without saying a word.

Fang Qin was puzzled by the change in Zhao's attitude. In the first few days after she returned, Zhao seemed to be concerned about her damaged reputation, so she avoided her and left her to fend for herself.

Fortunately, Xie Xinghua was kind-hearted and never forgot to bring her a warm meal every day.

But now, Zhao didn't even skip three meals a day, which made Fang Qin puzzled.

After repeated consideration, Fang Qin guessed that this might be because after Zhao separated from the eldest wife, only the three of them were left in the family to depend on each other, and Zhao tried to win her over so that she would have someone to rely on in her old age.

Thinking of this, Fang Qin's back seemed to straighten a little, and the inferiority complex caused by the loss of virginity gradually dissipated.

However, when Zhao walked into Fang Qin's room holding a bowl of hot noodles, she found her still lazily lying on the bed. Her suppressed emotions suddenly burst out, and her words were full of anger: "You only know how to sleep, you are so lazy!"

Unexpectedly, Fang Qin mistook "extremely lazy" as an insult, and instantly jumped up from the bed, her finger almost pointing at the tip of Zhao's nose, and asked harshly: "Who are you saying is rotten? You old witch! Do I have to be a widow for the rest of my life for that short-lived son of yours? Dream on!"

Fang Qin has now figured out that the harm she suffered was not intentional and she should not be held responsible.

All the misfortunes, in the final analysis, were caused by the bad luck of the Jiang family that implicated her.

Now, she found an excuse to relieve herself and was no longer as ashamed as she was at the beginning.

Faced with Fang Qin's reputation being damaged but she showed no remorse and even spoke back to him, Zhao was furious and almost rushed forward, intending to teach her a lesson.

Fang Qin fought back vigorously, punching and kicking him, warning him, "If you dare to touch a hair on my head again, you will be in trouble in the future!"

I thought this would scare Zhao, but unexpectedly, Zhao sneered and then put on a fake smile, as if she was really frightened by Fang Qin's threat. "Oh, my good daughter-in-law, don't say such things. I'm counting on you now. I see that you have recovered well, eat the noodles quickly, and then I will accompany you to the market to buy some new clothes."

The sudden change in Zhao's attitude made Fang Qin more and more convinced that she had gained the upper hand.

She snorted disdainfully and decided to get up and eat noodles.

After going through this incident, Fang Qin had become noticeably thinner, with her clothes hanging loosely on her body. She really needed to buy some new clothes to dress herself up.

"Okay, after we finish eating noodles and washing up, we'll set off."

As she spoke, Fang Qin's eyes flickered with an imperceptible determination and expectation.

Zhao responded softly, turned around with brisk steps and pushed open the door. The barely perceptible smug smile on the corner of her mouth looked particularly subtle under the weak sunlight, as if she was brewing an unknown plan in her heart.

In fact, Fang Qin's physical condition has improved significantly, although the pain in her hips is still a vague reminder.
