The young couple from the farm fights back
Chapter 101 Kindness Needs to Be Sharp
The sun was setting, and the curtain of sunset gradually rose across the horizon. Jiang Li removed the venom from the body of the last critically ill patient.
Jiang Li was worried about her children at home and had no time to relax. She quickly packed up the medicine box and hurriedly gave Ming Yang a few instructions.
"Let's stop here for now. There's no rush for those who haven't received acupuncture to take the decoction. Those who have received acupuncture shouldn't be moved. Send a few people to keep watch here tonight."
"Okay, Lady Li."
"Also, even if it's very cold at night, don't add more clothes or blankets to the patients. I've added herbs to the decoction they're taking today to keep out the cold. The moisture from the straw mat creates convection with the toxic gases in their bodies, which can help the patients expel any remaining toxins faster."
Although Ming Yang didn't quite understand what she meant, he knew that the Divine Doctor's instructions were correct: "Madam Li, please rest assured. I've taken note of everything."
They have witnessed the true abilities of the miracle doctor with their own eyes today, so why shouldn't they be convinced?
In Jiang Li's courtyard, Yuan Niang and several of the daughters-in-law who had come to help had prepared hot water for her to bathe and wash. The children had all eaten dinner. Knowing that their mother (aunt) was tired, the children returned to the backyard after dinner.
Aunt Hu watched Lan Jie'er in the yard all day long without blinking. The little girl was just like her third brother when he was a child, she loved to laugh and was not noisy. Everyone who saw her couldn't help but like her.
Jiang Li washed off her tiredness and immediately fed Lan Jie'er. Looking at the soft and tender little girl in her arms, Jiang Li couldn't help but smile, but a layer of sadness could not help but appear in her eyes.
"Your father seems to be having a good time outside." Jiang Li didn't know whether he was alive or dead. Now, he regretted supporting Zhou Chunfeng's idea.
Why fight for fame and future? Just like the people on this Changsheng Island, aren’t they happy just living a stable and comfortable life?
At this time, the door opened gently, and the first person to come in was Madam Yuan, who brought her two daughters-in-law to bring dinner.
"My lady, I think you are very tired today. Would you mind bringing dinner to your room?"
Jiang Li, who was sitting sideways on the edge of the couch, looked up and said, "Thank you, Madam Yuan, for taking care of my family."
"Look, my lady, you're being distant with me again. Tonight, the kitchen has made some fish soup. It's delicious and fresh, without the fishy smell. Although it's a little bland, it's good for your health. I hope you'll have a couple more bowls."
Jiang Li said gratefully: "Okay, you are thoughtful."
Fish soup is indeed a good thing. Eating more fish is not only good for the health of women during confinement, but the milk produced is also beneficial to the baby.
"Did you guys enjoy your meal tonight?" With Que and Heng looking after the two little ones, Jiang Li had nothing to worry about.
Madam Yuan was setting the table and said with a smile, "Madam, don't worry, my brother is fine. Brother Jing ate three bowls of fish soup tonight. I was worried that he might upset his stomach, so I didn't dare to serve him more soup."
Speaking of the greedy boy, Jiang Li couldn't help but smile. Seeing that the girl in her arms had eaten her fill and fallen asleep, she straightened her clothes, carefully placed her on the soft couch, and covered her with a small mattress.
Seeing that her sister was sleeping soundly, she got up with peace of mind and sat down at the table. She first took a sip of the half bowl of soup that Madam Yuan had served her.
The soup tasted delicious, soothing and refreshing. I couldn't help but drink a few more sips. I saw two unfamiliar young wives sitting next to Madam Yuan. They looked to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.
Seeing this, Madam Yuan hurriedly introduced them, "Madam Li, these two are the wives of Mingwu and Mingshi. Since you have been busy on our island today, they have volunteered to come over and help look after the children."
Jiang Li understood: "You are thoughtful."
Ming Wu's wife said stiffly, "Madam Li, please don't be polite to me. It is my honor to come to your courtyard to help you."
The wife of Ming Shi also said, "If you want to be estranged from me, it's because I didn't serve my wife well."
Jiang Li lowered her eyes and smiled helplessly. She had been here for a long time and had experienced a life of luxury with people serving her on Changsheng Island.
"Have you eaten?" Jiang Li picked up a piece of steamed bun and asked in a gentle voice.
Yuan Niang smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, my lady. We are used to not eating after noon."
"Although not eating after noon is a good habit, eating in moderation is essential for good health, especially for men who do manual labor."
Upon hearing this, Madam Yuan and the others paused, realizing that the Divine Doctor's words made sense. On Changsheng Island, they never lacked food. The boy worked hard every day, but even if he was hungry in the afternoon, he still had to wait until the next morning for breakfast.
"According to what you said, my lady, if I don't eat after noon and feel hungry, it will harm my health."
Jiang Li nodded. "Of course it's harmful, so eat when you're hungry, especially for growing children. If you starve yourself too early and damage your stomach, you'll inevitably suffer from stomach discomfort when you get older."
Upon hearing this, Madam Yuan and the others suddenly understood, and felt that Jiang Li, as the miracle doctor in their minds, must be right.
"Thank you very much for your advice, madam." The people from the Mingwu family and the Mingshi family followed Madam Yuan and expressed their gratitude.
Jiang Li didn't eat much for dinner. He drank two and a half bowls of fish soup and ate half a steamed bun, which made him feel 70% full, just right.
She wiped her mouth, thinking of last night's events, and seeing the fatigue in Yuan Niang's eyes, she asked, "I heard from Ming Yang that Ming Ye was kept in the pavilion by the island master today?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Niang sighed helplessly, "That's right."
"My servant and Mingfeng have been good friends since childhood. The incident on the island must have chilled the island master's heart. I'm afraid that Mingye, in order to protect Mingfeng, would offend the island master and cause him displeasure."
The boys who died last night were all children she had watched grow up. Who would have thought that they would secretly murder their fellow tribesmen on the island? She also had no idea who instigated them.
It was clear that Mingye was a man who valued friendship. Jiang Li admired him a little, but blindly valuing friendship wasn't a good thing. Kindness needed to be sharpened; blind kindness would not only bring trouble to oneself, but also bring harm to those close to you.
"You don't have to worry. As you said, Ming Ye values friendship, but some friendships without measure can lead to disaster. Regarding this matter, it would be good to let the island master enlighten you."
Madam Yuan understood the meaning of Jiang Li's words. The so-called "guidance" was probably not a lesson.
Well, let that brat of hers be taught a lesson. Mingfeng and the others have committed heinous crimes, murdering their tribesmen and assassinating the miracle doctor. Each of these crimes violates the island owner's taboos.
While Madam Yuan and the others were taking the food away, Jiang Li went to the two rooms next door to check on the boys. He had neglected them recently. Perhaps after his escape, even An Ge'er had become much more sensible.
Que Ge'er and Heng Ge'er practiced calligraphy in their room during the day. Jiang Li checked the handwriting of the two boys and couldn't help feeling relieved.
When the world outside is peaceful, I should send my children to private school as soon as possible. But I don’t know when the war outside will stop.
