Chapter 123: Not long after moving in

"Why?" Yue Fuli looked at the stone with a puzzled look on her face and asked, "I've already examined your grandfather Xun and given him medicine, so why can't he leave?"

"It's precisely because you treated the patient and gave him medicine that I can't leave. Who knows if the medicine is good or bad? What if Grandpa Xun gets worse because of your treatment? What should I do?"

After hearing this, Yue Fuli looked at Shitou in silence. She had never expected that a five or six-year-old kid would say such a thing.

"According to what you said, if your Grandpa Xun's illness doesn't get better, I won't be able to leave?"

"That's about right." Shitou nodded, then sat down directly on the doorstep.

Yue Zhenjiang and the others were standing in the yard. Seeing Shi Tou blocking Yue Fuli from coming out, they couldn't help but feel angry. They stepped forward and accused her, "You little brat, do you have any sense of reason? If it weren't for A-Li's intervention, your grandfather wouldn't even be able to hire a doctor. Now, A-Li has taken the initiative to treat your grandfather, and you actually doubt her. This is really too much."

Shi Tou naturally knew that what he was doing was wrong, but he had no other choice. After all, Yue Fuli and the others were all outsiders. If they were allowed to leave, what if Grandpa Xun happened to them? Where would they go to find someone?

Therefore, after hearing Yue Zhenjiang's words, he turned around and faced him with the back of his head.

Seeing him like this, Yue Zhenjiang was furious. Just as he was about to step forward and take the child away, Yue Fuli spoke up and said, "Third uncle, forget it. The child is ignorant. Why bother with him?"

"Ari, I'm speaking up for you."

"I know." Yue Fuli nodded, then looked at Yue Zhenjiang and said, "I understand that Third Uncle did it for me, but Shitou did nothing wrong. If it were me, I would also be worried. After all, we are not locals. If something happens and we just leave, they won't be able to find us."

After hearing what Yue Fuli said, Hu Wei and others, who were originally a little angry, also understood.

It just so happened that they had no plans to leave today, so after seeing Xun Zicheng coming out, Yue Fuli discussed with him, "Brother, your grandfather's fever will take a while to subside, and it's not a good idea for us to stay here all the time. How about this, you go check around the village to see if anyone is injured or sick, and ask them to come here for treatment. That way, we'll have something to do, and you can rest assured."

Xun Zicheng nodded after hearing this. Although he was feeding his grandfather medicine in the room before, he still heard the conversation between Yue Fuli and Shitou clearly.

Shitou was right. Although it was a little unfair to Yue Fuli, it was beneficial to them. His grandfather was the only relative left, and he couldn't afford to get into trouble.

Therefore, even though he knew that it was unfair to Yue Fuli, he still did not stop Shi Tou.

"Shi Tou, go to the village and see if there's anyone who needs medical treatment. Call them over."

Shitou stood up obediently and ran towards the village.

Yue Fuli took advantage of this moment of leisure to chat with Xun Zicheng for a while. They talked about the collapsed house on the roadside and how the woman would rather live in the collapsed yard than come to the village to stay.

"I know the family that Doctor Li mentioned. They just moved in not long ago and aren't familiar with the people in the village. It's understandable that they don't want to stay with us."

"Just moved in?" Yue Fuli's heart moved, and she couldn't help but ask, "I wonder how long they have been here?"
