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

The pillar of the family has already met with misfortune. If anything goes wrong again, what will happen to the two young daughters? Xie Xinghua's cautious attitude made Su Yu sigh inwardly.

In this relatively peaceful era, even if one's family is poor, at least one can make ends meet, so people are often unwilling to get involved in dangerous situations.

Su Yu knew very well that if it were not a real famine, people would be brave and fearless in their fight for survival even when facing ferocious beasts in the mountains or even legendary man-eating monsters.

However, the current situation is not so desperate. Su Yu understands Xie Xinghua's caution, and he has promised Daya to take care of this family.

Su Yu spoke gently and patiently: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will go with you and will ensure your safety."

Now that she no longer has to sit in the clinic every day, there is no need to rush into the beauty cream business. It would be better for her to use the spare time to help Xie Xinghua pick and sell fruits. Besides, she is also quite interested in wild mushrooms in the mountains.

In the end, under Su Yu's insistence, although she still had some concerns in her heart, Xie Xinghua reluctantly nodded and agreed.

For this family, this extra income is extremely important. The resources in the mountains are inexhaustible. As long as safety is ensured, it can be an excellent source of livelihood.

On the other hand, Zhao was secretly happy when she saw that Daya had not returned yet.

She firmly believed that Daya must have encountered an accident and would never come back.

In order to prevent Xie Xinghua from impulsively arguing with Zhao and getting hurt by him, Daya did not tell her mother about Zhao's conspiracy.

Seeing that Xie Xinghua was still busy as usual, Zhao couldn't help but feel suspicious. She didn't understand why she could remain so normal after such a blow. She even suspected that Xie Xinghua's mind had changed because of excessive grief.

However, no matter what the reason is, as long as Daya does not go home, it is the best outcome for her.

As for Su Yu, Zhao was furious every time she saw her. Recalling how she tried to spread rumors about Su Yu in the village today, but was unexpectedly met with indifference and even ridiculed for being unfaithful and gossiping, Zhao was filled with resentment.

In her opinion, these people must have been bewitched by Su Yu's sweet words, but she believed that as long as she persisted, sooner or later others would see Su Yu's true face.

At this moment, the children went out to release the ducks, leaving only Su Yu and Xie Xinghua at home.

Su Yu enthusiastically assisted Xie Xinghua in tidying up the kitchen. This small and exquisite kitchen was cleverly designed with a compact layout. Wang Dayong was even more ingenious. He built a small attic and added a ladder next to it, making full use of the space above for storing various items.

At the same time, Wang Dayong was renovating Xie Xinghua's small room according to the old method. In view of the fact that Jiang Wangshan was bedridden and the girls in the family were growing up, the daughters should avoid their father when they reached a certain age. After all, a crowded residence was not a long-term solution.

Because this matter concerns his own sister, Wang Dayong takes it very seriously and tries his best to improve their living environment to the greatest extent possible under the existing conditions.

The kitchen was fully equipped, and Xie Xinghua couldn't wait to cook to entertain Su Yu.

As the sun sets, the dining table is filled with dinner prepared by the two of them. Although there is no big fish or meat, there are many varieties, and the color, aroma and taste are all delicious: snow-white and soft steamed buns, sour and spicy shredded potatoes, fragrant scrambled eggs with chopped green onions, tender and juicy braised eggplant, crispy dry-fried beans, refreshing and greasy cold cucumber salad, and a big bowl of appetizing and refreshing sauerkraut and red bean soup.

Under limited conditions, they could only cook these home-cooked dishes repeatedly, but the sauerkraut and red beans were specially contributed by Su Yu.

In the hot summer, after hard work, drinking a bowl of sour soup can not only refresh your mind, but also dispel your fatigue.

The setting sun cast a gentle violet hue across the sky. Inside the Wang family courtyard, the dishes on the table exuded an enticing aroma, but the atmosphere seemed a little deserted due to the absence of several children.

Xie Xinghua and Su Yu, with worry gradually gathering in their eyes, exchanged glances and decided to step out of the house and follow the familiar country paths to look for the child who had not returned.

Just after taking a few steps, a burst of hurried footsteps came closer and closer, and Erya's figure appeared in the sight. Her face was covered in sweat and her little face was red from running. There was no trace of Xier and Sanya behind her.

Xie Xinghua and Su Yu's hearts tightened, and they hurriedly asked, "Erya, what happened? Why are you the only one left?"

Arya was still panting, her finger trembling as she pointed to a place not far away, her voice filled with lingering panic: "Fight, there was a fight."

After saying this, she bent down, supported her knees with her hands, and tried to calm her heavy breathing.

When the two women heard this, they didn't bother to ask any further questions. They were extremely anxious and followed the direction Erya pointed, one step at a time, praying in their hearts that the children were safe.

The path was winding and they walked anxiously until the sounds of children crying and shouting drifted to their ears on the wind, and then they quickened their pace.

When we reached the edge of the pond, we saw chaos.

A group of children gathered in a circle, and the noise was one after another, intertwined with aggrieved crying, angry shouting and scolding.

Su Yu and Xie Xinghua were surprised. The one who stepped forward with a firm and powerful voice was actually San Ya?

Without hesitation, they pushed aside the children who were watching and squeezed into the center of the crowd.

The scene before them made the two of them stunned: San Ya was sitting on a boy's back, looking down from above, waving a wooden stick in the air and grabbing the boy's ear with one hand, looking quite powerful; on the other side, Xier was squatting on the ground, tears falling like pearls from a broken string, her shoulders heaving with sobs. Although it was silent, the grief in her eyes made people feel pity.

Upon seeing this, Su Yu immediately hugged Xier in his arms and patted her to comfort her.

Xie Xinghua quickly pulled San Ya away from the boy, frowning and speaking anxiously, "San Ya, what on earth is going on?"

There were several scratches on San Ya's cheeks. Although she looked a little disheveled, her eyes were extremely determined.

As for the two boys, one had a nosebleed and the other had stick marks on his face and messy hair, it was obvious that he had suffered a great loss.

Shen Qiang, the boy who was suppressed by San Ya, took the opportunity to escape, cursing angrily: "You female demon, you only know how to bully people!"

Xie Xinghua's stern look brought his complaints to an abrupt end.

San Ya then spoke slowly, pointing at the two boys who were trying to quibble: "First they scared our ducklings away, then Shen Qiang pushed Xier to the ground, and Shen Kang made fun of Xier, saying that she was dumb and couldn't make any sound when she cried, and even wanted to harm our ducks."

Her words were full of reluctance and anger, "I just couldn't stand it anymore, so I took action."

After hearing San Ya's narration, Su Yu checked Xier's wound again. The big swelling on her forehead made Su Yu feel distressed. She blew gently and secretly admired San Ya in her heart.
