Reborn into a Farming Family: My 18 Virtuous Wife is a Hero

After waiting outside the emergency room for several hours, Su's mother's tears never stopped when Su's father was wheeled out and sent back to the ward. Su Mu felt very sad seeing this. He held Su's father's hand and kept silently reciting the first level of the Rejuvenation Divine Art. He knew it was useless, but he stubbornly persisted until he was exhausted.

"The patient can't be subjected to any more stimulation. How are you family members taking care of him? He needs to rest now. He could have been discharged in half a month, but now it's taken one or two months. If this happens again, don't blame us for not doing our best!" The doctor frowned and left impatiently, while the nurse behind him quietly closed the door.

Su Mu's face turned pale, and he no longer had the strength to perform the hand seals. He could only hold his mother's shoulder with heartache and comfort her.

Lianqingshan is a villa district in Qingshi, where most of the prominent political and business figures in Qingshi own a villa. Vice Mayor Li Dewei lives here. Halfway up the mountain where two mountains meet, a bridge spans the middle, and rows of villas stand on both sides. They look roughly the same, but upon closer inspection, the differences become apparent: classical style, modern style, European and American style... each has its own unique charm.

At this moment, inside a modern-style villa covering 300 square meters, Li Yan and his wife, who had just left the hospital in a fit of anger, were hanging their heads, looking disheveled and humiliated after being scolded by the man on the leather sofa. The arrogance they had displayed at the hospital was long gone, and they looked like children who had done something wrong, making people want to laugh at first glance.

The man on the sofa was about forty-two or forty-three years old. He exuded a stern and solemn aura, the kind that comes from someone who has long held a high position. His thick, short black hair was shiny from too much hair wax. His eyebrows were raised, and his face was cold and hard, with a hint of anger. "You two are more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. You can't even handle a small matter. What are you two doing back here?!"

Zhang Huifen sullenly muttered, "If she thinks we're not doing a good job, why doesn't her sister-in-law go herself? Her own son caused trouble, and she still has the mood to go shopping..."

"What did you say?!" Li Dewei shouted, his eyebrows furrowing.

Li Yan kicked her hard, and Zhang Huifen staggered and screamed.

"Shut up!" Li Yan roared in exasperation. He was furious at Zhang Huifen's brainless and unrestrained speech, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't exactly sew her mouth shut, could he?

Zhang Huifen then realized what she had just said, hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, and looked at the angry Li Dewei, and said in a flustered manner, "Big...Big Brother, I didn't say anything..." Her voice gradually weakened as she felt guilty.

"Watch your mouth. Think carefully about what you should and shouldn't say. She's your sister-in-law!" He emphasized the last part, his obvious displeasure causing the two to nod in agreement.

Having finished his reprimand, Li Dewei's anger had largely dissipated. He took a sip of the top-grade Pu'er tea offered by his subordinates, his serious face revealing an expression of enjoyment, and slowly said, "Lin Guan... explain the whole matter in detail, don't miss any details!"

Lin Guan, who had been standing to the side since the beginning, nodded respectfully. His face, after taking off his sunglasses, was somewhat ordinary, but it did not affect his cold and imposing aura in the slightest.

A deep, cold voice rang out, recounting the whole affair in detail. He didn't mince words, even revealing Zhang Huifen's insolent remarks that had angered the three members of the Su family. After listening, Zhang Huifen glared at him fiercely. Then, fearing that Li Dewei would take his anger out on her, she shrank back, not daring to move, trying to minimize her presence. She was somewhat relieved that Lin Guan hadn't revealed that she had secretly kept 50,000 yuan. Then, she felt a pang of heartache, knowing she would soon have to give back the 50,000 yuan she had been holding onto. Her heart was filled with a complex mix of emotions.

A few minutes later, Li Dewei listened to the whole story. His face remained expressionless. He waved for Lin Guan to leave. Looking at the two timid people in front of him, he sighed inwardly. Why had he ever asked his good-for-nothing brother to do things for him? But even though he felt some resentment, they were still his own brother and sister-in-law, so he could only swallow it down.

"What do you think of that girl named Su Mu?!"

My great-grandmother passed away a few days ago, so I took leave to go home. Since there's no internet in the countryside, I haven't been able to update. I also have an exam on Monday, so I won't have time to update. Please forgive me!
