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

After confirming that Xi'er was not awakened, she let go of her hand and whispered, "Don't worry, I grew up in the mountains and can handle it. Go find the things you used before, maybe they can be of use."

Jiang Ziling was confused by Su Yu's sudden closeness. He didn't know how to respond for a moment. He could only follow her instructions and find various tools.

Su Yu selected carefully. Faced with the nets, bows and arrows, bells and other items in front of her, she knew she had no idea where to start. Only the small and exquisite slingshot caught her eye, so she put it in her pocket.

Then she put on her backpack, picked up her machete and hoe, and prepared to set off.

Even though I am not familiar with the mountain roads, I can always find the path as long as I walk towards the mountain.

Su Yu originally planned to just wander around the foot of the mountain. After all, he didn't know the local situation well, so it was not advisable to venture deeper.

She knew very well that the mountain environment was complex and fraught with countless unknown risks, and that any carelessness could put lives in danger.

In this regard, Su Yu has a deeper understanding than ordinary people.

At this time, the village was still asleep, and only a few villagers began to get busy.

An older sister who had seen Su Yu yesterday saw her and took the initiative to greet her: "Hey, isn't this the new daughter-in-law that the second son of the Jiang family brought home yesterday? You should call me Sister Sun."

Sister Sun's call attracted the attention of several people around, and Su Yu responded generously: "Yes, hello, Sister Sun."

"Where are you going so early in the morning with your backpack?" Sister Sun asked with concern.

Su Yu suddenly had an idea and thought that this was a good opportunity to expose Zhao's evil deeds, so he responded calmly.

The next day, Su Yu woke up.

My sight inadvertently fell on the dark little face beside the bed; it was Xier.

Su Yu couldn't help but think to himself: How many scorching afternoons did this girl spend in the sun to get such a dark and dark skin?

A mischievous smile appeared on her lips, and she gently poked Xier's smooth face with her fingertips.

The little guy seemed to be disturbed from his sweet dream. He just turned over lazily, mumbled something, and quickly fell into a sweet dream again.

Su Yu looked around and this simple room came into view, with wooden walls, earthen brick floors, and furniture that was all rough and practical.

However, it will take some time to completely cure Jiang Ziling's leg disease, and the mute poison that Xier was infected with cannot be cured by ordinary herbs.

It seems that we won't be able to leave this place in a short time.

In this case, improving the living environment and making yourself live more comfortably is a top priority.

The worn-out bed, the mottled cabinets, the broken pottery jars…it was indeed a big project! However, the trivialities of life could not erase her optimism and tenacity, so she decided to start with the most basic survival issues.

Filling your stomach is the most important thing at the moment.

Yesterday she had searched Jiang Ziling's house carefully and found that they had run out of food. The rice jar in the corner of the kitchen was empty. She had no idea how this couple managed to survive.

Did they also suffer from hunger, eat wild fruits to fill their stomachs, or rely on the help of their neighbors? Thinking of this, Su Yu felt sad.

After getting dressed neatly, she simply tied up her black hair and fixed it with a wooden hairpin. Then she looked at her simple and elegant self in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, Su Yu walked to Jiang Ziling, leaned over and gently pushed him: "You should go to bed and rest. I have to go out for a while."

"where are you going?"

Jiang Ziling asked dazedly, his deep eyes still hazy with sleepiness.

"I'm going to go to the mountain to find some food and dig some herbs for your leg."

Su Yu answered, his tone full of determination and confidence.

When Jiang Ziling heard the words "go up the mountain", he stood up instantly in surprise, but his legs were numb from sitting for a long time, and he stumbled and fell back to where he was.

Su Yu was quick to act. She stretched out her slender hands to support him, and quickly covered his mouth, for fear of waking up Xier in the bed.

After confirming that Xi'er was still immersed in a sweet dream, she let go of her hand and whispered, "Don't be nervous. I grew up in the mountains and I'm very familiar with it. Go find the things you used for hunting, maybe they can come in handy."

Jiang Ziling was a little dazed by Su Yu's intimate behavior. His bright eyes stared at her blankly, and his brain seemed to stop thinking and just obeyed her every word.

Soon, he found a bunch of tools - a worn bird net, a worn bow and arrow, a few copper bells, etc. Su Yu examined them one by one, and finally only took a fancy to the small slingshot, the wooden handle was as smooth as jade, and he put it in his pocket.

Then, she put on her backpack, took a sharp machete and a small hoe for digging herbs, and resolutely walked out of the room and headed towards the unknown forest.

Although I am not familiar with this mountain road, it is always a good idea to walk in the direction of the mountain.

She had originally planned to just wander around the foot of the mountain. After all, she didn't know the local environment very well and it was not advisable to venture deeper.

The situation in the mountains is complicated. There are dangers lurking everywhere, including poisonous snakes, ferocious beasts, steep cliffs, and dense thorns. Su Yu understands this better than anyone else.

She had spent countless days and nights in the mountains and forests, and those days of dancing with nature taught her how to protect herself in a dangerous environment.

At this moment, the village is still sleeping in the tranquility of the morning light, with smoke rising from the kitchen. Occasionally, a few early-rising villagers carrying farm tools meet on the road.

One of them, Sister Xie, who had seen Su Yu before, recognized the new face at a glance and took the initiative to greet her warmly: "Hey, isn't this the new daughter-in-law that the second son of the Jiang family brought home yesterday? Just call me Sister Xie from now on."

As soon as Sister Xie finished speaking, it was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples and attracting the surrounding neighbors to gather around.

Su Yu was not disturbed by the sudden attention. She looked calm, with a slight smile on her lips, and nodded generously in response: "Yes, I am Su Yu, thank you for your good morning, sister."

"Oh, my girl, where are you going so early in the morning with this heavy basket on your back?"

Sister Xie's eyes were full of concern and her tone revealed deep neighborly love.

A hint of subtle cunning flashed in Su Yu's eyes. This was the best time for her to expose Zhao's evil deeds.

She deliberately lowered her voice, pretending to be pitiful, and told the story: "You all know the situation at home. Ziling has difficulty walking, Xier is young and ignorant, and my parents-in-law have long ignored us. There is not even a grain of rice at home. I have to go up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables to fill the stomachs of my family."

As she spoke, she gently stroked the edge of the backpack, as if the rough bamboo strips were now carrying the hardships and helplessness of life.

Sure enough, Su Yu's words pierced people's hearts like a sharp knife, and immediately triggered everyone's indignation and accusations against Zhao: "That Zhou Yufen is really too much! Just a few years after she got married, she forced the two elders of the Jiang family to jump into the river. Now that Ziling has finally married, she has started to bully these young people again."

A middle-aged man was so angry that his face turned blue, and his words were full of hatred for the Zhao family.
