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

She kindly reminded Su Yu: "Child, I didn't mean anything else when I said this. I just meant it out of kindness. Don't take it to heart."

A hint of curiosity flashed through Su Yu's eyes, but she still maintained a gentle smile and generously encouraged the old lady to continue, "Auntie, if you have anything to say, just say it. As a junior, I should naturally listen to the teachings of the elders. Every word you say is for my own good, so how could I have wild thoughts?"

Su Yu's words were as gentle as a spring breeze, warming the hearts of everyone present, and their previous concerns disappeared.

The old lady then spoke slowly, with a bit of worry in her tone: "Ziling's family, is there someone in your family who is not careful with their words? There are rumors outside now, all of which are not in your favor. We have observed how you behave in the world during this period of time, and we know that those rumors are not credible, but we are afraid that someone with bad intentions will take them seriously."

A middle-aged woman nearby also chimed in: "Yeah, I've heard a lot of gossip like this lately."

Another person seemed a little indignant, with dissatisfaction in his voice: "They are just people who have nothing better to do than to eat and have long tongues. Why bother with them?"

Su Yu was naturally aware of those who were talking about her behind her back, but she just smiled gently. Her carefree and nonchalant attitude was admirable.

"That aunt is right. Just ignore it. I have behaved uprightly, so why should I be afraid of being distorted by the shadow? Some people want to fabricate rumors to ruin my reputation. Don't fall for her tricks."

Her words not only cleverly denied those untrue things, but also tactfully warned everyone present. Her words revealed a perfect warning, and immediately, the faces of several women became a little unnatural.

Su Yu changed the subject and smiled again: "But I believe that everyone has sharp eyes and can distinguish right from wrong. So, let those who have ulterior motives say whatever they want. I don't care. If they really annoy me, it won't be too late to deal with them."

"Yes, yes, haha."

The villagers knew how powerful Su Yu was and did not dare to provoke her easily.

After all, she is proficient in medicine, and maybe I'll need her help someday.

In response to her direct and polite warning, everyone could only smile bitterly, and there was a hint of awkwardness in the air.

At this time, an aunt hurriedly changed the subject, trying to break the deadlock. She pointed at the hare and chicken in Su Yu's hand, her eyes full of curiosity: "I see that your rabbits and chickens seem to be different from the ones we raise at home?"

"Of course, I caught these myself in the mountains and forests."

Su Yu spoke frankly, and then added: "Even the sweet fruits that everyone tasted just now were picked by me from the mountains."

"I still need to look for hens hatching eggs. Aunts, I'll go first."

Su Yu didn't stay for long, just left with a cheerful back.

After she left, the crowd fell into a brief silence, exchanging glances.

One of the aunts whispered in surprise: "She said those chickens and rabbits were all hunted from the mountains?"

The other aunt swallowed and nodded with a complicated look: "Yes, and those fruits are all from that forest."

"How dare a woman go up the mountain alone?"

This news shocked and unbelievable everyone present.

“Maybe not the mountain near our village?”

"Impossible. Our village is the closest to Yunqiu Mountain. Hunters from other villages are active on other hills all year round. How could it be her turn?"

The villagers were talking about it.

Soon, everyone in Liushu Village knew that Jiang Ziling's wife Su Yu inherited his skills and started to get involved in hunting in the mountains. The news spread quickly in the village like the wind.

When Su Yu stepped into Uncle Li's yard, he saw Aunt Li, Zhao Qiaozhi, leisurely enjoying the sunshine in the yard. Uncle Li was nowhere to be found. Perhaps he was in the house, or he had gone out and had not returned yet.

Zhao Qiaozhi recognized at a glance the young woman who had once saved her life, but the awkwardness in her heart caused by the sense of debt did not diminish in the slightest.

The favor of more than one tael of silver was always like a huge rock pressing on her heart, heavy and heavy.

She was cold and asked, "What brings you here today?"

Su Yu was not angry at her rudeness. She knew what Zhao Qiaozhi was worried about, so she deliberately raised the basket full of game and mushrooms in her hand and said with a smile: "I heard that you like to eat mushrooms, so I brought you some fresh ones."

When Zhao Qiaozhi heard this, she felt mixed emotions, as if she had been pricked by a needle.

The girl clearly knew that she had nearly died after eating wild mushrooms by mistake, but now she took the initiative to send her mushrooms. Was she hoping that she would die sooner?

"You girl, you are really..."

Zhao Qiaozhi suddenly stood up, pointed her trembling finger at Su Yu, and began to scold her like a string of pearls: "You black-hearted girl, do you still want to squeeze that extra ounce of silver from me? I'm telling you, it's impossible!"

Su Yu didn't care about Zhao Qiaozhi's rebuke, because her action today was intentional.

She seemed to be completely unaware of Zhao Qiaozhi's anger, and walked around her and went straight into Li Bo's kitchen, lit the fire as if she was familiar with it, and started to boil water.

After all, this was not her first visit and everything was too familiar to her.

Zhao Qiaozhi looked at Su Yu's relaxed and casual manner, and the anger in her heart burned even more vigorously, "What on earth do you want to do? This is the Li family, who allowed you to break in without permission?"

"I'm making a fire, can't you see?"

Su Yu's answer was understated, in stark contrast to Zhao Qiaozhi's rage, like a cool breeze in summer, easily dispelling the other party's attack.

Zhao Qiaozhi felt extremely frustrated by Su Yu's calmness, as if she had punched hard on soft cotton, and she felt a sense of frustration that she had nowhere to vent.

Su Yu realized that the other party's emotions had reached a critical point and realized that this "exciting" game should be ended in time to avoid really angering Zhao Qiaozhi and causing any bad consequences.

"No one invited me here. I went up the mountain to catch some game and pick some mushrooms, thinking of giving them to the two elders to taste."

"I'm not as careless as some people who put mushrooms into their mouths without knowing whether they are poisonous or not. These mushrooms that I picked by hand are absolutely safe to eat raw. The saying that they are poisonous if not cooked properly does not apply to them at all."

There was a certain confidence and determination in Su Yu's words that made people believe him.

I carefully picked up the dry branches and piled them on the fire one by one. The sparks jumped as if to bear witness to this kindness.
