The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it
Chapter 57: Life and Death, Fortune and Misfortune, Leave it to Fate
After all, in this journey full of unknowns and dangers, who will be in a more desperate situation? Everything remains unknown.
She sat upright in the carriage. Although her heart was in turmoil, she still appeared calm on the outside.
As the carriage slowly went deeper into the dense forest, the trees around it became increasingly dense, almost completely blocking out the sunlight, creating a suffocating and depressing atmosphere.
At this moment, the driver pulled the reins suddenly, and with a quick "whoosh", the carriage stopped suddenly, as if it was strangled by an invisible giant hand.
"Why did you stop suddenly?"
Su Yu asked in feigned confusion, her heart pounding in her chest. Although the question already had the answer, she needed this short period of time to make final preparations for the upcoming drama.
The driver did not answer immediately, but jumped off the carriage silently, pulled out a sharp dagger from his side, and gradually approached Su Yu with each step heavy and slow. The air was filled with an ominous atmosphere.
"Driving is such hard work. I am exhausted both physically and mentally. Beauty, why don't you come down and enjoy the scenery, and give me some comfort? Maybe I will be in a good mood and let you go today."
There was a sense of pride in his words, as if he was determined to get the wealth and beauty that were about to come. The fatigue of the past few days and the long-lost good luck caused ripples in his heart.
But when he thought about having to silence the witness afterwards, the cruelty and reluctance intertwined in his heart, forming a complex and contradictory emotion.
However, Su Yu sneered in her heart, as everything she saw confirmed her guess that the other party was indeed not a good person.
At this moment, she felt strangely calm in her heart. She no longer had to worry about unknown possibilities and could devote herself to the upcoming confrontation.
She pretended to be terrified, her voice trembling slightly: "Don't, don't do this, I...I will do as you say."
Seeing this, the driver thought he had won the game and raised the corners of his mouth in a smug smile.
Then, brandishing the dagger fiercely, he ordered, "Come down and take off your clothes."
An almost imperceptible firmness emerged on Su Yu's face and a resolute light flashed in his eyes. Although he pretended to be on the verge of collapse, his body began to move unusually obediently, as if to cater to his request. He slowly stood up, holding on to the items in the car with his hands, pretending to get off the car.
The driver's eyes wandered greedily over her graceful figure, with an evil smile on his lips, but he didn't know that he was stepping into a trap step by step.
Just when he was most relaxed, Su Yu suddenly exploded, jumped up nimbly, and kicked the dagger in his hand away.
While the driver was stunned, she quickly took off the exquisite hairpin in her hair and pressed it lightly. The hidden mechanism opened, and the seemingly inconspicuous ornament instantly turned into an extremely sharp weapon, accurately slashing across his neck.
In an instant, blood gushed out like a fountain, leaving a hideous wound on the driver's neck. The severe pain made him lose all resistance.
Su Yu took advantage of the situation and kicked him to the ground again. With a howl of pain, he completely lost his fighting ability.
Su Yu sneered expressionlessly and said sarcastically, "I have been prepared for this, stupid guy."
She shook off the bloody and flesh fragments hanging on the hairpin with disgust, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart that what the waiter said was true. This small hairpin actually contained such great power. It was indeed a great item for self-defense.
What was even more surprising was that the bloodstains on the hairpin seemed to be attracted by some magical force and slowly seeped into the interior, and the surface returned to its original cleanliness and flawlessness, as if this life-and-death battle had never happened. It was so calm that it was unbelievable.
"Really amazing!"
Su Yu was filled with admiration and deftly put the hairpin back into her hair. This simple action revealed her confidence and determination.
She glanced coldly at the driver who was struggling in pain on the ground, her eyes full of disdain for such despicable behavior.
She was indignant at the thought of how many innocent souls had been harmed by this man's sophisticated methods.
Then, Su Yu nimbly jumped onto the carriage, imitated the driver just now, skillfully adjusted the direction of the horse, and shouted loudly: "Go!"
Following this powerful call, the carriage started again and galloped along the path in the forest, leaving only sin and dust on the ground, which was swallowed up by the gradually fading sound of the wind.
The carriage was like an arrow shot from a bow, rapidly cutting through the morning mist and rushing towards the person who was blocking the road, without any hesitation or slowing down. With a dull and heavy "bang" sound, it ruthlessly rolled over the human body, leaving behind a pile of dust and a terrified silence, which formed a sharp contrast with the previous shrill scream.
Su Yu sat upright in the galloping carriage, without even looking back, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
She whispered to herself, "You will suffer the consequences of your own actions. The law of nature is clear. How can this person's life and death, misfortune or happiness, affect me?"
She knew very well that in this world where the strong prey on the weak, sympathy would sometimes become her weakness.
As for the carriage that she got by accident, since the original owner was no longer able to make full use of it, she regarded it as a gift from God and accepted it with pleasure.
Su Yu skillfully swung the reins, turned the car around, and galloped along the original route until he returned to the wide and smooth official road. The tension and uneasiness in his heart gradually dissipated, like a huge rock finally falling to the ground.
There are lush trees on both sides of the official road, and the road is wide and straight, extending into the distance, so there is no need to worry about getting lost.
Even if he needs to ask for directions, Su Yu is full of confidence, believing that with his wit and persistence, he will eventually find the way home.
At first, she was a little nervous about driving such a huge carriage by herself, but soon, in just two hours, she was able to do it with ease, as if she was born to be an expert at driving a horse. All operations became easy for her, which made her secretly proud of herself.
When the sun was shining brightly, about two hours later, the outline of the carriage gradually became clear and appeared in the sight of Willow Village.
The villagers looked at this scene with their eyes wide open, their faces filled with astonishment and confusion.
They were surprised that Jiang Ziling's wife, who was said to have run away long ago because she could not bear the poverty, actually returned home driving a carriage full of goods; what was even more surprising was that the person driving the carriage was a seemingly weak woman, which in traditional concepts was undoubtedly a responsibility that only men should bear.
The villagers were whispering to each other. Some admired Su Yu for her courage at such a young age, and praised her backbone and independence. Others were suspicious and whispered about the various possibilities of her being away these days, speculating how she had earned so much wealth and purchased such conspicuous property.
For a time, the news about Su Yu's return spread rapidly in the village along with all kinds of speculation and comments, with mixed reviews.
