As night falls, the light becomes soft and hazy. The young man has long hair draped over his shoulders, with black hair spreading at his temples, making his skin look whiter than snow and as bright as moonlight.

姐姐?!

She is so tall, could she be my older sister?

Erya was stunned for a moment, then said sweetly: "Sister is so beautiful."

Shu Changyu looked at the little girl who was not even as tall as his chest, his forehead twitched, and he said impatiently: "Yeah."

Shu Changwen, who was standing by, was terrified, fearing that he would suddenly turn hostile, but he didn't expect that he would actually endure it.

There was a hint of smile in Shu Changwen's eyes. It seemed that Changyu treated Xiao Song as a friend.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside. Song Yan turned around and saw several people outside the door looking in stealthily.

Arya looked at him with a glare, her brows raised in anger, and she rushed over, cursing, "What are you looking at? A bunch of muggles with nothing to do. My brother's legs are not broken. I'm sorry to disappoint you."

After she finished cursing, she suddenly threw her hands away and slammed the door shut, shutting out the gloating looks and gossip.

Song Yan was also speechless. How could someone come home to watch the fun? It was simply outrageous.

Erya said angrily, "They are all gossipy women who come here on purpose to make fun of our family."

"Okay, don't be angry." Song Yan said, "Tomorrow I will give them a little shock to help you vent your anger."

After comforting Erya, Song Yan moved her butt. The little girl felt heavy and her legs were sore from holding her for so long.

Shu Changwen saw him twisting and turning in the chair, so he said, "Your foot is injured and it's inconvenient, so let me hold you."

As he spoke, he reached out to take the little one, adjusted her position so that she sat on his arm, and wrapped his right hand around her chest to prevent her from falling.

When the little girl was in Shu Changwen's arms, her vision became broader. She opened her big round eyes and looked around. When she saw Shu Changyu, she immediately grinned.

Shu Changyu slightly curved the corners of his lips with a faint smile.

"Stop pushing, let me see." There was a rustling sound from outside, and someone was crowding at the door, trying to peek through the crack.

Song Yan's face suddenly turned black.

Then there was a knock on the door: "Xiao Song! Xiao Song!"

Song Yan recognized Aunt Niu's voice and said, "Aunt Niu is here. Erya, go open the door."

Arya ran over and opened the door.

Before Aunt Niu could even go in, she was suddenly pushed away by someone.

As soon as the other party entered the room, he couldn't hide the gloating on his face: "Oh, Dashu, what injury did you get? Why did you need someone to carry you back?"

Aunt Niu then came in and heard Dashan Niang's pretentious tone. She knew at a glance that it was a weasel visiting the chicken to wish a happy new year and that she had ulterior motives.

Seven or eight people suddenly crowded into the yard.

In addition to Uncle Niu, Aunt Niu, and Aniu, a few people who were watching the fun at the door also squeezed in.

"Watch your step, don't step on my seedlings."

Song Yan gave a reminder, but was too lazy to chase them away, so he simply let Erya leave the door open. Since they wanted to see, let them see enough.

Otherwise, if we let them continue to spread rumors, we don’t know what the rumors will turn out to be tomorrow.

When Shu Changyu saw so many people crowding into the yard, he picked up Gousheng to prevent him from being stepped on, and moved back toward the door.

It was already late at night. Aunt Niu vaguely saw that Song Yan's calf was indeed injured when he pulled up his trouser legs, so she asked worriedly, "How did you get injured?"

Dashan's mother yelled, "I heard someone broke his leg."

"This person doesn't learn good things, but only learns bad things."

Song Yan explained: "Aunt, it's not true. Don't listen to their nonsense."

Aunt Niu hurriedly asked, "Then how did you get injured?"

Song Yan scratched his head, glanced at her, and said quickly, "I went into the mountains with someone today and was scratched by a wild beast."

"What?" Aunt Niu was so angry that she almost reached out to twist his ears. "You are asking for death. You dare to go hunting in the mountains with others!"

"You are so capable, why didn't you go in when your father asked you to?"

Uncle Niu said, "If you want to go into the mountains, you can take Ah Niu with you."

Song Yan begged for mercy again and again: "Uncle and aunt, don't say anything, I know I was wrong."

Aunt Niu wanted to scold her a few more times.

Just at this moment, Erlin helped Doctor Zhang into the room and barely saved his ears.

Doctor Zhang asked, "Where is the injury?"

Song Yan raised her left foot: "Right here."

It was dark and hard to see, and Doctor Zhang was old and his eyesight was blurry, so he said, "Erlin, go get a light."

Erlin went into the house and lit the oil lamp. In the dim light, Doctor Zhang saw the scratches on the wound and immediately concluded, "Your wound was caused by a wolf or some other ferocious beast."

"Wolf?!" Aunt Niu looked horrified.

Song Yan lowered her head silently, not daring to tell the truth for fear of scaring them.

Haozi kept the old village chief's advice in mind and naturally would not be stupid enough to tell the truth.

The other onlookers were also extremely shocked. Didn't they say that his leg was broken by someone? How could it be scratched by a wild animal?

Even so, Aunt Niu almost fainted. She was about to scold him, but when she saw Song Yan's dejected look, she sighed, "It's good that he came back safely."

Erlin's expression changed: "Brother, you are not allowed to enter the mountain again."

How could he not go into the mountains? The potatoes he planted haven't been dug out yet.

But seeing Erlin's slightly red eyes, he promised again and again: "I promise you, I won't go into the mountains."

A curious person came over to take a look and found that it was indeed scratched by the claws of a wild beast.

It's not like what was said outside that his legs were broken.

Dashan Niang didn't give up and asked, "Are you sure?"

“How could I be wrong?” The man stretched out his hand and gestured, “Such a deep claw mark, the flesh was almost torn off.”

When everyone heard this, they gasped in unison.

Someone sighed: "It seems to be a big one. Xiao Song is lucky to survive."

Zhang Pandi heard it outside the yard. She clenched the handkerchief in her hand and thought bitterly: Why didn’t his legs just get broken? It would have been better if he was bitten to death by a wolf.

In the yard, Doctor Zhang carefully examined his wound and said calmly, "You've applied medicine, right? The wound is healing quickly."

"The medicine you use is better than mine, so I won't apply any more medicine to you."

After a brief pause, he added: "In the next few days, be careful not to get it wet. If the wound becomes red, swollen and ulcerated, you will have to scrape the flesh off."

Song Yan still had some common sense. If the wound was festering, it must be inflamed. If it was more serious, he would lose his life.

He nodded cautiously: "Thank you, doctor. I will pay attention to it."

After seeing off Doctor Zhang, the group of onlookers were also asked to leave.

Aunt Niu and the others hadn't eaten yet, so they gave him a few instructions and then went back.

Only Shu Changyu and the others were left.

Song Yan said, "Brother Shu and Changyu, why don't you stay for dinner?"

Erlin said at this time: "Let me do it, big brother."

"My leg is just injured, not my arm. I'm just cooking a meal." Song Yan said as he rolled up his sleeves.

Erlin insisted, "No, I'll do it."

Listening to the two brothers arguing, Shu Changwen smiled and declined, "You don't have to bother. The family has prepared the meal, so we won't stay."

He returned the kid to Song Yan and shouted, "Haozi, let's go."

Haozi hesitated and said, "But the village chief said..."

Shu Changwen put his hand on his shoulder and pushed him out the door: "It's getting dark, and you still want to stay overnight."

Song Yan had difficulty walking, so she told Erlin, "Please send Brother Shu and the others off for me."

Erlin responded, sent them to the door, and said gratefully: "Thank you brothers for sending my eldest brother back."

Shu Changwen smiled and said, "You're welcome, little brother. Your elder brother and I are friends. I'll just drop you off here. Go back quickly."
