You are unlucky and I am tough

The two of them went out together to the well near their home. When they passed the rice fields, Cheng Yong's wife, who was busy working in the fields, straightened up and called out, "Cheng Shuang, Cheng Shuang."

After hearing this, the two stopped at the same time and looked at Cheng Yong's wife running over from the field. They unconsciously remembered what they had seen Bai Xiuqin and Cheng Caipeng doing in the mountains yesterday.

They looked at each other, their expressions somewhat unnatural.

Cheng Yong's wife came to gossip with Cheng Shuang. She lowered her voice and said, "Cheng Shuang, do you know that after you left, the village head scolded Cheng Dafu and then asked Doctor Wang to sew up his wound."

Cheng Shuang disagreed, "Oh, he's willing to sew it up again? Do you think Doctor Wang's treatment fee is lower than mine?"

"I heard that it started bleeding again after moving it twice, so they were afraid the blood would run dry and said they needed to suture it."

Cheng Yong's wife shrugged her neck and said, "You don't know how miserable Cheng Dafu's screams were. It was like a pig being slaughtered. I didn't dare to listen. I quickly came back to work."

Cheng Shuang was not interested in knowing about Cheng Dafu's family, but she still thanked Cheng Yong's wife for telling her. Then she and Wei Qinglang continued to move forward and went to the well to fish for watermelons.

The watermelon was placed in a bucket and lowered with a rope. It was now floating on the water. Wei Qinglang lowered the bucket to fish it out, but it was not easy to fish it out. He tried several times but failed.

Cheng Shuang was directing from the side, walking back and forth around the wellhead. After directing for a long time, the fish was finally fished out. She was so happy that she walked a few steps faster, but her feet slipped and she fell.

"Ah..." He fell hard on his butt.

Wei Qinglang was startled and quickly ran over to help.

"Wait, your legs are numb, don't touch me first, I'll take a break."

Cheng Shuang's whole face was in so much pain that she was straining. It took her a long time to recover before she grabbed Wei Qinglang's hand and slowly stood up.

Wei Qinglang frowned, "How is it? Is it serious?"

Cheng Shuang pressed the painful spot with her hand and judged based on her experience, "I think it's a slight contusion of the coccyx. No, my leg is still numb. I'll take it slow."

Wei Qinglang's brows furrowed more and more, and he simply bent down and carried her on his back. "The water around this well is always wet and covered with moss, so you won't pay attention to your steps."

Cheng Shuang hissed in pain and pouted, then she noticed Wei Qinglang carrying her away, and hurriedly patted his shoulder.

"Watermelon, Watermelon forgot."

Wei Qinglang turned around, holding the watermelon in one hand and carrying the person on his back in the other, and walked home, not forgetting to scold Cheng Shuang for not knowing how to walk at such an adult.

It is hard not to attract attention when walking on the village road with someone on your back. When the busy villagers see them, they think the couple is showing their affection and make good-natured jokes.

Wei Qinglang opened his mouth to explain, but Cheng Shuang strangled him from behind.

"You are not allowed to say that."

There are still children making fun of her for being chased by a dog. If the villagers knew that she fell on her butt by the well and couldn't even stand up, they would probably laugh at her for a long time.

In comparison, she would rather be teased about their loving relationship.

Wei Nanxing came back from Zhushan after practicing archery with a new bow. Before he reached the door of his house, he saw his brother carrying his sister-in-law on his back. He was also holding a big watermelon in his hand, which looked quite heavy.

He wanted to help but felt a little embarrassed to go over. His brother and sister-in-law had always had a good relationship, but he still avoided them at home. However, he still found that whenever they talked about something, they would make eye contact, and they would always get together to talk in private.

He was being reserved before, but why is he so open today? He walked around the village carrying it in broad daylight.

Wei Nanxing wanted to pretend he didn't see it and hurried home, but Wei Qinglang saw him and called out, "Nanxing, come here and get something."

He could only run over and take the watermelon with his head down.

Seeing that he was too embarrassed to look at them, Wei Qinglang explained, "Your sister-in-law accidentally fell by the well and couldn't walk, so I carried her back."

Wei Nanxing was startled and quickly looked at Cheng Shuang and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Cheng Shuang smiled awkwardly, "It's not that serious, my feet are just numb."

Wei Nanxing hurried forward to help open the door, and after pushing it open he called out, "Xinyi, all of you come out! My sister-in-law has fallen."

Cheng Shuang: “…..”

The brothers and sisters in their respective rooms all ran out at once, and were frightened to see Cheng Shuang being carried back.

Cheng Shuang quickly explained, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just fell. Don't be so nervous."

She patted Wei Qinglang's shoulder to signal him to put her down, but Wei Qinglang didn't listen to her and said to his brothers and sisters, "Don't worry, it's just a minor injury. It will be fine after two days of lying down."

Then he carried Cheng Shuang into the house.

Walking to the bed and carefully putting the person down, Wei Qinglang supported her, "Go slowly, lie down on the bed and rest for a while."

Cheng Shuang is a doctor and knows the extent of his injuries. He said they are not serious, but he will have to lie down for a few days. It’s not that he can’t walk, but it hurts to walk. He will recover faster if he lies down and rests.

"What should we do now? Should we apply medicine?" Wei Qinglang asked as he sat down beside the bed.

Cheng Shuang turned her head and saw that he was squinting where his eyes were looking, "Wei Qinglang, are you trying to take advantage of me?"

Wei Qinglang was stunned for a moment before reacting and coughing lightly, "I didn't say I would help you apply the medicine."

"Where are you looking?"

Wei Qinglang twitched his lips and turned his face away. "Then I'll go out, okay? You can apply some medicine yourself."

"How are you going to explain to my brothers and sisters that you left me here? I need some ice. Go in and get some ice. Wrap it in a towel and I'll take it out."

"Also, you are not allowed to come out unless I tell you to." Cheng Shuang added.

"I know." Wei Qinglang responded and disappeared from the room in an instant.

My brothers and sisters were standing outside in the yard waiting. They didn't even have time to eat the watermelon. They just left it on the table in the sun. It had been soaked in the well water for so long in vain.

After a long time, the door finally opened and Wei Qinglang walked out. Several brothers and sisters immediately surrounded him and asked how serious his injury was.

Wei Qinglang said, "No bones are broken, but it hurts to walk, so I need to stay in bed for two or three days to rest. Don't worry, just go do what you need to do."

Only then did his brothers and sisters feel relieved and disperse. Wei Nanxing found that the watermelons had been heated by the sun, so he carried them to the kitchen and soaked them in a bucket of water.

Seeing that it was still early, Cheng Chen and Cheng Xu secretly called Xu Xiaohu from next door and told him that their eldest sister was injured and they would go back to the county to study tomorrow, so they wanted to go up the mountain to pick some wild fruits for their eldest sister.

There are many wild fruits in the mountains at this time of year, but the children who go up the mountain are all half-grown boys. Their families will not let them go up the mountain until they are at least ten years old. These three boys, who are less than twenty years old in total, sneaked up the mountain.

When the sun was about to set, the two returned home and picked a lot of wild grapes and raspberries.

Wei Qinglang thought they went out to help the villagers, but when he saw the wild fruits, he realized that they had run up the mountain. He was scared and scolded his two younger brothers angrily for the first time, and made them stand in the yard as punishment.

There was also Xu Xiaohu next door. He didn't dare let his family know that he went up the mountain, so he gave all the wild fruits to Xiao Si and the others. Wei Qinglang felt that he had to educate the child. If he sneaked up the mountain and got lost next time, it would be a big deal. So he asked Wei Nanxing to go over and tell them.

When Xu Xiaohu's mother found out, she took a branch and chased him to beat him. Xu Xiaohu's crying was heard by several families living nearby.

Cheng Shuang lay on the bed, eating washed wild grapes. She could still vaguely hear Xu Xiaohu crying. She said to Wei Qinglang, "Xiaohu is crying so miserably. Why don't you go and beat them up so they cry, so they can share the pain."

When she heard it just now, she was also shocked. She thought they were so brave that they dared to sneak up the mountain. But when she knew that the two little guys were picking wild fruits for her, she felt a little touched.

Since he couldn't bring himself to do it, he could only let Wei Qinglang be the bad guy. It would also be beneficial to take this opportunity to make his two younger brothers afraid of Wei Qinglang. It would be easier to discipline someone who is afraid of Wei Qinglang in the family in the future.

After Cheng Shuang finished expressing her thoughts, Wei Qinglang thought it made sense, so he went out and found a bamboo stick to hit his two younger brothers ten times on the hands each.

After hearing Xiao Si's crying in the room, Cheng Shuang sighed and continued to eat her grapes while holding the bowl.
