Old Man Wu reattached Tang Zixuan's leg and secured it with a wooden board, instructing Tang Zixuan:

"Although your leg has been reattached, you have to be careful not to move it again, otherwise it will become dislocated and you will really be crippled!"

After hearing Old Wu's diagnosis, Director Wei was speechless. This Tang educated youth was really something else; with spring planting just around the corner, he managed to break himself.

However, at this moment, Director Wei didn't say anything unpleasant. He instructed Tang Zixuan:

"If your leg is broken, you should rest for now. But since you didn't participate in the spring planting, your work points probably won't be enough for food rations at the end of the year. Tell your family and they'll send you money to buy more work points!"

"And your punishment for picking up manure was a year, but now that your leg is injured, we'll postpone it. We'll make up for those months when your leg is healed."

It's impossible to erase it; otherwise, what if some foolish person tries to imitate it and evade punishment?

Tang Zixuan was somewhat disappointed. He had thought he could finally get rid of the punishment of picking up manure, but it turned out to be postponed!

Seeing Tang Zixuan lying listlessly on the hospital bed, Douya assumed he was thinking of Bai Yueyao again.

Bean Sprout bit her lip, offering a shy and timid comfort to Tang Zixuan:

"Tang Zhiqing, don't be sad. Even if Bai Zhiqing doesn't come back, you are not alone."

"You still have me, I will never leave you." Bean Sprout was too embarrassed to say the rest, and only looked at Tang Zixuan with tender affection.

This disgusted Tang Zixuan so much that he almost threw up his dinner from the night before.

Even Bai Yueyao, at least has some beauty, far surpassing Douya.

Not to mention that Bai Yueyao is a high school graduate and her family is from Beijing, just like Tang Zixuan's.

For a village girl like Douya who has no education, unless she looks like Zhong Wanwan, Tang Zixuan might consider her.

Tang Zixuan pushed the bean sprouts aside and said with annoyance:

"Stay away from me! I'm not letting you get away with this for breaking my leg!"

Bean sprouts blame themselves:

"Tang Zhiqing, I know it's my fault. I'll take care of you, I'll take good care of you, and I'll definitely be able to get your leg back to normal!"

Tang Zixuan was even more annoyed. He turned his back to Douya and said in a harsh voice:

"Go home and get me some clothes right now. Can't you see I'm still in wet clothes? Are you trying to freeze me to death?"

Tang Zixuan didn't want Douya to take care of him, but he had no other choice!

Xia Ning didn't even glance at him. After watching the commotion, he left. His cousin, Tang Zihao, was nowhere to be found. The kid didn't even come over when Xia Ning was injured.

Even though he's here, this kid isn't exactly a good caregiver. Tang Zixuan has no choice but to accept reality, no matter how much he dislikes Douya, and rely on Douya for care for the time being.

…………

After watching the commotion, Zhong Wanwan and the others went home and discussed it again:

"With Tang Zixuan's leg injured, Douya probably won't be in the mood to flirt with Xiaobaiyang anymore!"

Little Poplar gritted its teeth:

"Sis, can you use a different word? She's interested in my job, not trying to seduce me!"

Zhong Wanwan… blurted it out, and she smiled ingratiatingly at Xiaobaiyang:

"She framed my brother with malicious intent. My brother was lucky enough to find out in advance. What 'flirting'? She doesn't deserve it!"

Little Poplar then smiled slightly and nodded in agreement:

"Sister, you're right!"

Zhong Songbai ignored the lawsuit between the two and came up with an idea after thinking for a while:

"Tang Zixuan can't move in the short term, and she's busy taking care of him, so she doesn't have time to keep an eye on Xiaobaiyang!"

"However, this matter is ultimately a hidden danger, and we cannot sit idly by and wait for our doom!"

Zhong Wanwan stroked her chin thoughtfully:

"I think instead of waiting for her to strike first and then being forced to retaliate, we should strike first."
