Su Qiao sneered, "The most important thing in making friends is that we share the same ideas. Since you can't point out my faults, Dong Zhiqing, please don't say anything ambiguous in the future."

Dong Yiyi lowered her head, seemingly somewhat sad.

"Everyone, please bear witness: from now on, wherever you, Dong Zhiqing, are, I hope we can keep a distance of at least 5 meters. Otherwise, if I faint due to an allergic reaction, I hope you will all help me seek justice. I will definitely report it to the police!"

Those watching felt that Su Zhiqing seemed to be making a mountain out of a molehill.

It's just an allergic reaction.

Su Qiao seemed to have guessed what they were thinking.

"Dr. Wang said that my condition was quite serious. If I hadn't dodged in time, I would be on the verge of death now."

Everyone has witnessed the extent of Old Master Wang's medical skills, and upon hearing this, they immediately believed him.

They hadn't expected it to turn out this way.

Seeing their convinced faces, Su Qiao knew she had made the right move.

Lu Fugui personally spoke up, "Since Dong Zhiqing can't refute it, then don't talk nonsense in the future, and don't get close to Su Zhiqing either."

"I... I didn't put any perfume on me."

“But you do have a smell. In that case, don’t go near Su Zhiqing. We all know that allergies are a serious matter. Su Zhiqing hasn’t pursued the matter with you, so you should be grateful. If you do it again, don’t just forget about Su Zhiqing, I’ll be the first to report you to the police and send you to a farm for reform!”

A chorus of agreement erupted around him.

Su Qiao knew she couldn't find the perfume, and she didn't know if she could mask the scent on Dong Yiyi's body.

Reporting it to the police might not work, but making a scene in the village might.

At least it can give Dong Yiyi some peace and quiet for a while.

We need to find an opportunity to eliminate the system first before we can take action against Dong Yiyi.

By evening, Su Qiao was in a much better mood when she returned home.

But halfway there, they suddenly saw several elderly women walking in one direction, calling to each other.

Su Qiao was puzzled.

I followed along for a while.

They then realized that everyone was heading towards the Lu family's residence.

At the entrance of the Lu family's residence.

Three men in military uniforms are standing in front of the tightly closed gate.

From inside the door came Lu's mother's harsh scolding.

"You heartless bastards! I sent my perfectly healthy son to join the army, and now he's back with a limp and will never be able to stand up again. Instead of offering compensation, you want me to pay for his medical expenses?"

"Auntie..."

"Don't call me. It's all because this brat insisted on joining the army. Now he's crippled. He shouldn't be living at home anymore. Your army should take care of him."

"But you insisted on bringing him back, didn't you? Now you're not letting him in. What exactly do you mean by this?!"

All three of them got angry.

Lu Xiangze lay on the stretcher, his stubble already grown, but he hadn't cleaned it.

His eyes were dull, devoid of any light.

Su Qiao was deeply moved. Just a few days ago, this man was full of vigor and ambition, but now he looked like this.

Is this still a permanent disability?

Little White circled around Su Qiao's legs, seemingly wanting to go over, its eyes fixed on the other side.

Lu Xiangze met Su Qiao's gaze, which seemed to be filled with worry.

He slowly shifted his gaze, his eyes landing on the door.

He made a gesture as if to speak, but Lu's mother kept cursing from inside the door, and the stretcher bearers lowered their heads to listen to what he had to say.

His face was full of disapproval.

But she couldn't resist Lu Xiangze's insistence, so she told him anyway.

"Aunt Lu, are you sure you don't want Xiang Ze to continue treatment? There's still a 50% chance his leg will recover!"

"Hmph, half? You're just colluding with the hospital to scam me. We have no money, but you can take my life."

No matter what the three comrades-in-arms said, Lu's mother simply wouldn't open the door.

Before long, the brigade leader and the party secretary arrived after hearing the news.

Seeing Lu's mother throwing a tantrum makes me feel annoyed.

Lu Fugui knocked on the door, "What are you doing? Don't you want your son anymore?"

He just mentioned it casually, but Lu's mother thought she had found a great idea.

"Yes! I don't want him anymore! I don't want this son anymore! He never served me before, and I don't want him here anymore. I... I want to sever all ties with him!"

Lu Fugui had never met anyone like this before, treating his own son like an enemy.

"Uncle Fugui, I'm a cripple now. Since this is my mother's wish, I'd like to trouble you to help me divide the family property. I don't want anything."

Lu Fugui hesitated. His nephew was now disabled and penniless. How would he live in the future?

Seeing his worry, Lu Xiangze smiled and said, "Don't worry about me. I'm just disabled, but I haven't lost my abilities. I can live well no matter where I go. I just need Uncle Fugui to give me that house at the end of the village."

The house at the end of the village is the old house that the second branch of the Lu family used to live in.

It was left behind by a landlord from a long time ago.

The house is nice, but someone died inside, so no one dares to live there.

The second branch of the Lu family has never lived there.

It's long since rotten and decayed.

"But no one can live there anymore."

"It's okay. I can have my brother help me clean up."

Upon hearing this, Lu's mother immediately opened the door.

"We can separate, but there's no money. You'll also have to sign a document severing all ties. And the medical bills you owe will be yours to pay even if you die!"

Lu Fugui wanted to try to help him, but Lu Xiangze grabbed his sleeve and shook his head silently.

Lu Fugui could only shake his head, call on several elders and the village secretary to witness the writing of the family division document together.

Lu Xiangze was thus kicked out of the Lu family penniless.

It's like bringing to life just a few lines from a book.

Su Qiao thought about his fate.

Such a spirited soldier, yet he had to die so hastily.

She felt a strange sense of reluctance.

She always held a certain respect for these soldiers.

She instinctively wanted to help.

The space hasn't been fully upgraded to level two yet.

The stream hadn't been fully upgraded yet, so using it that night probably didn't completely cure his leg injury.

Watching their retreating figures, Su Qiao's eyes welled up with tears.

Once home, I immediately started working in the space.

"Xiaobai, will it be helpful for him to eat these tomatoes and other things from my space?"

Xiao Bai shook his head.

The fruits from these spaces are primarily for relieving fatigue in the early stages; they do not have any bone-healing effects.

"What if I also grow some medicinal herbs?"

[It can only shorten the lifespan; it will not add any additional benefits.]

Su Qiao sighed regretfully.

He immediately picked up a hoe.

While she was sweating profusely, Lu Xiangze, accompanied by his comrades, arrived at the "haunted house".

The yard was overgrown with weeds, and half of the wall next to it had collapsed.

The wall was riddled with cracks, and it looked as if it would collapse if it rained again.

One of his comrades has already gone back.

Now only two people are left to help him carry the stretcher.

"Boss, are you really going to stay here?" one of them asked worriedly.

Lu Xiangze nodded.

"You guys should clean this place up first, be careful, and check for any snakes, insects, or rodents. If they bite me, I'll make trouble for you."

"Mission accomplished!"

After they finished speaking, the two of them began to clean carefully.
