But things are different now.

Judging from what the sister-in-law was saying, it was all her fault.

"What the hell? Such a small injury and you still want to go to the hospital? And you want me to pay for your medical expenses?" Zhang Hua's face changed, her lips curled up, and her tone was full of disbelief.

"Yes, you heard me right." Jiang Anxia answered resolutely, enduring the pain in her hand.

"I won't charge you much, just give me one dollar."

"One dollar? Are you robbing me?" Zhang Hua's voice rose an octave.

Why is this little girl so delicate? She just got a burn, and she has to go to the hospital.

If it were her, she would just rinse it with cold water for a while and be done with it; there would be no need to go to the hospital and waste money.

"I'm already being lenient by not asking you for more. Look at my hands. They should have been better after rinsing them with cold water, but you pulled on them, and look, they've already started to blister." Jiang Anxia used her good hand to slap Zhang Hua's hand away.

I pointed to my hands, which were already blistered, and showed them to her.

"I was just checking. Who told you to move around like that?" Zhang Hua retorted sharply.

She just didn't want to pay that one dollar.

That's several eggs!

"Enough. Even if you expose everything I've said today, you still have to pay the money you owe." Jiang Anxia's face turned completely cold, and even her voice became icy.

Zhang Hua was taken aback by Jiang Anxia's behavior. She had thought Jiang Anxia was a little girl who would be easy to bully.

As it turned out, the little girl's cold expression was quite intimidating.

"Don't give me that, it's not that serious, I'll just give you 50 cents." Zhang Hua took a step back.

She's the kind of person who bullies the weak and fears the strong, so she backs down whenever Jiang Anxia becomes assertive.

"Heh... one yuan, not a penny less." Jiang Anxia sneered.

Honestly, she had met quite a few people like this in recent days, but none of them had made her as disgusted as this middle-aged woman.

“You…” Zhang Hua pointed a finger at Jiang Anxia, ​​her chest heaving, clearly angry.

"Excuse me, here's the money." Jiang Anxia stretched out her hand, gesturing for Zhang Hua to pay.

Zhang Hua was so angry that she couldn't speak, but she was helpless because she was the one at fault.

She swallowed her anger, took a dollar from her pocket, slapped it on Jiang Anxia's hand, picked up the kettle, and turned to leave. As soon as Zhang Hua left, Jiang Anxia couldn't maintain her composure and began to grimace.

Her hands were burning with pain, and she was pulled up by Zhang Hua after soaking them in cold water for only a short while.

Zhang Hua's hand was still on the spot where she had been burned, and she really couldn't help but want to curse.

In such a big place, even though she was standing in the corner, she still managed to bump into her. I'm truly amazed.

Looking at her left hand, which was already blistered, Jiang Anxia felt like crying.

Thankfully, it wasn't my right hand that got my hair permed, otherwise it would be inconvenient to do anything.

After this unexpected incident, the food was heated up. Jiang Anxia took the lunchbox and water basin out, poured out the water, put the lunchbox back in, and went back.

When she gets back, An Yuxi will definitely ask her how she got it, and she'll be worried.

Well, to be honest, it's not like she got it herself, so An Yuxi probably won't say anything to her.

Having figured all this out, Jiang Anxia breathed a sigh of relief.

At worst, it's just a matter of listening to An Yuxi ramble on for a while.

Sure enough, when Jiang Anxia returned, An Yuxi was already awake, leaning against the bed looking outside.

"Third Brother, dinner's ready!" Jiang Anxia pursed her lips, put her left hand behind her back, and tried her best not to let An Yuxi notice.

"Okay." An Yuxi snapped out of her reverie and smiled.

"Eat up!" Jiang Anxia opened the lunchbox for An Yuxi and placed it there, then opened her own.

"Xiaxia, what happened to your left hand?" Seeing Jiang Anxia open the lunchbox with one hand, the smile on her lips disappeared, and her brows furrowed slightly.

"It's nothing!" Jiang Anxia pursed her lips and answered casually.

"Xiaxia, do you know? Lying is the thing you're worst at." An Yuxi frowned, looking at Jiang Anxia with a very disapproving gaze.

"I... I accidentally got burned." Jiang Anxia's eyes darted away.

She clearly didn't burn herself, so why is she acting so guilty at such a good time?

"You burned yourself? Let me see it." Upon hearing Jiang Anxia say that she burned herself, An Yuxi's expression instantly turned serious.

"Let me explain first. I didn't burn myself. An older woman was filling a kettle with hot water, and the lid wasn't on properly. She bumped into me, and that's how I got burned. You can't blame me." Jiang Anxia explained the reason clearly beforehand, afraid of being scolded.

"Okay, I got it, I won't say anything more." An Yuxi said helplessly. What kind of time is this to be afraid of being scolded?

Hearing An Yuxi say that, Jiang Anxia cautiously stretched out her left hand for An Yuxi to see.

An Yuxi frowned as she watched Jiang Anxia extend her hand.

"How did it get so burned? Didn't you soak it in cold water beforehand?"

"I soaked in it, but the auntie pulled me out after only a short while." Jiang Anxia pouted slightly, looking a little aggrieved.

She was also very wronged, you know.

"What do you mean, 'auntie'? Don't you even know such basic common sense?" An Yuxi said with a serious face.

The blisters have formed, and the girl hasn't uttered a single word of pain even after all this time.

"Third Brother." Jiang Anxia pouted, looking at An Yuxi with a wronged expression.

"Does it hurt? I didn't bring any burn ointment with me when I left home. I'll go ask around and see if anyone has any." An Yuxi sighed helplessly.

"Third Brother, there's no need, just bear with it." Jiang Anxia didn't want An Yuxi to ask.

"Endure? Do you want to be scarred? You're already like this and you're still enduring it? Now is not the time for you to be stubborn." An Yuxi's voice changed, and her face became serious.

“I…” Jiang Anxia was speechless, unsure of how to begin.

"Alright, don't worry about it. You eat first, I'll go ask." An Yuxi said helplessly, still thin, and didn't have the heart to continue. Then, without waiting for Jiang Anxia's reply, she stood up and walked to another carriage.

This time, the little girl really suffered.

It's better now that the blister hasn't broken yet; once it breaks, it will be much more uncomfortable.

Watching An Yuxi's departing figure, Jiang Anxia's eyes welled up with tears.

She used to endure her injuries alone.

No one cared, and there was nowhere to confide in her.

But things are different now. When you get hurt, someone cares; when you suffer injustice, someone stands up for you.

This is a scene that Jiang Anxia dared not even imagine in her previous life after her parents passed away.

She could easily have such a heartwarming moment.

At that moment, Jiang Anxia remembered the note.

Jiang Anxia took it out of her pocket and opened it to look.

The handwriting above is neat and legible.

After reading it, Jiang Anxia looked at Wu Cuilan.

She hadn't expected Wu Cuilan to remind her of these things. It seemed Wu Cuilan was kind at heart.
