"Why are you looking for Yan Wenxuan? That guy does nothing all day, who knows where he is."

The third brother wiped the sweat from his head and looked disgusted when he mentioned Yan Wenxuan.

"I have something to talk to him about." Su Wanwan couldn't care less and gritted her teeth.

"I think I saw that kid just now. He went to the fields with a hoe today and seemed to be heading towards the terraced fields over there."

The villagers around the third brother Sudi pointed the direction to Su Wanwan, and they also looked disgusted: "He can't even grow crops in dry land, and he's trying to make trouble in paddy fields. Tsk tsk tsk tsk."

Su Wanwan rushed towards the terraced fields without stopping. Halfway through, she met Yan Wenxuan who was walking towards her from a distance.

Quickening her pace again, Su Wanwan immediately rushed in front of Yan Wenxuan.

"Last time I asked you to go to Secretary Wang to get your form back. Have you done that?"

Without paying attention to the villagers who were busy working in the surrounding terraces, Su Wanwan lowered her voice and asked hurriedly.

"Don't mention it. I've already gone to Secretary Wang several times, but every time he was reluctant to see me. He said that the form had been submitted and it was submitted. He couldn't go to the county to get it back for me. He told me to be more careful next time and then sent me away."

When Su Wanwan asked him about this, Yan Wenxuan looked frustrated.

After all, Su Wanwan had already explained to him the main interests of this matter last time. If his bright future was ruined because of a form, he would regret it to death!

Su Wanwan was shocked to hear this. She couldn't even do this and couldn't help Xu Yan...

Waves of loss and familiar fear once again surrounded Su Wanwan, making her already pale and empty face even paler.

Especially in the hot summer, everyone else had a red face, but her face was surprisingly white, even vaguely scary.

"No, why are you so concerned about this? Are you really thinking about me?"

Seeing Su Wanwan's expression, Yan Wenxuan's mind turned several turns, and it seemed that he finally reached the right place.

He looked at Su Wanwan with a smile.

"You know it in your heart?"

Su Wanwan sneered and turned away indifferently.

She didn't have time to waste talking to Yan Wenxuan anymore.

"I was just saying that ever since I went to your house to ask for money last time, the whole village has been spreading bad things about me like crazy. Of course, I have also said a lot about your family, so I want to ask, after I have said such bad things about your family, you are still so kind as to come and advise me not to ruin my future."

Yan Wenxuan followed him as he spoke: "I actually thought you were some kind of noble lotus, and even thought of you as my goddess. Who knew you were only thinking about yourself? Come on, do you like Xu Yan just like that Zhong Qingqing?"

Yan Wenxuan's voice echoed dozens of meters around him. Su Wanwan had to stop and turned around with a cold smile: "Before criticizing others, look at where you stand. What I said to you before was a potential risk. Maybe one day you will get the retribution you deserve."

"Humph, let's put aside the question of retribution for now. Do you know that the condition of Xu Yan's father, whom you like, has been getting worse every day since he came home from the clinic? I heard the old man coughing before I went up the mountain today. I guess he won't live long."

Yan Wenxuan always likes to spread all kinds of rumors in the village. Almost all the big and small things in the village are spread by Yan Wenxuan and the naughty boys around him.

"Before you care about others, you should care about yourself first. Looking at your current state, I'm afraid you can't even afford to eat three meals a day, right?"

After saying this, Su Wanwan walked straight towards the radio station.

She had also heard about what Yan Wenxuan had just said. Old Man Xu had been relying on the medicine prescribed by the county and the IV drip at the clinic to maintain his life. Now, he suddenly left the clinic and returned home for some unknown reason. Naturally, he could not get the IV drip. For a lung disease patient like him, the most taboo thing is to get angry all the time.

Old man Xu was a person who could not help but explode when he got angry, and he quarreled with his children all day long.

What Yan Wenxuan said might be true.

Su Wanwan returned to the radio station and quickly finished transcribing the next day's quotations from the times. She also put a few storybooks into her bag, ate a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry to keep herself from fainting from hunger, then quickly picked up her bag, turned off the radio station, and walked towards Xu's house.

The evening sun shone on the small path in the village. The closer Su Wanwan walked towards Xu's house, the more uneasy she felt.

It was not until she turned into the path where the Xu family lived that Su Wanwan confirmed her guess. Many villagers who had finished work and went home gathered at the door of the Xu family, forming several circles and looking into the Xu family's yard.

"Excuse me, what happened to their family?"

Su Wanwan stood next to a villager and looked inside like the giraffe.

"Hey, isn't it Old Man Xu? He has always been in poor health, but he insisted on going home from the clinic. He became like this after he went home."

As the villagers next to her were talking, Su Wanwan was listening to the voice coming from inside the house -

In addition to the clear breathing sounds, there were also intermittent replies and crying sounds.

"Dad, please stop scolding me. Didn't you say Xu En is still young? What's the point of scolding me like that? He is just a child. He made a mistake once and it's his fault." Eldest sister Xu Lan knelt in front of her father, Old Man Xu's kang, wiping her tears again and again.

“Ahem… call that… ahem… call that brat over here!”

Old man Xu was covered with two quilts, but he didn't sweat at all. However, his face was flushed red and he coughed two or three times for every sentence.

"Dad, he ran away a long time ago. How would we know where he went?" Second sister Xu Mei moved the spittoon beside her in front of old man Xu and gently patted his back.

But he couldn't stop Old Man Xu's violent temper. Every time he coughed violently, he would knock over the spittoon in front of him.

The blood-red vomit was also all over the floor.

"Find someone to bring it back for me!"

Knowing that Old Man Xu's condition was very serious, no matter how reluctant the eldest sister Xu Lan was, she still signaled her younger sister next to her to go out and pretend to look for someone.

"What is going on? Why do people say Xu En made a mistake?" Some villagers who were listening to the intermittent conversation outside the door also started to discuss.

The villagers in the innermost layer arrived first, heard everything, and repeated it to the people behind them.

"I heard that it was their fourth son Xu En who stole the money and ran away."

"Alas, Old Man Xu is so seriously ill now, we should hurry up and find Old Fourth Brother. Maybe... maybe this is the last time we will see him."

A few villagers with frowns on their faces looked back, sent away a few fast-running boys, and started looking for Xu En around the village.

"Dad, lie down for a while. I'll make you a bowl of porridge. After you drink the porridge, Xu En should be back. You can ask him carefully."
