"Song Qian?" Su Jiaoniang asked tentatively.

Song Qian glanced at Su Jiaoniang, turned his wheelchair, and walked towards the backyard.

Su Jiaoniang quickly shifted her attention away from Song Qian.

She went into the house and saw the unconscious old scholar Su. Fortunately, he was still breathing and had a heartbeat, so she didn't rush to his death.

Indeed, life shouldn't have too many unpleasant things. Once there are too many unpleasant things, there is no peace or happiness to speak of.

Su Jiaoniang looked at Doctor Liu and asked, "How is the person?"

“His health wasn’t very good to begin with, and he made himself so angry. I told him, it would be better if your dad lived with you; at least he’d be more comfortable.”

“I know!” Su Jiaoniang nodded.

Now that he's recovered, he let the family move back into their own home.

What's going on with Su Li?

It's best to resolve this sooner rather than later.

Su Jiaoniang felt a certain dislike for her younger brother, Su Li.

Now that I'm in my twenties, I'm no longer a baby. I have to take on the responsibilities and obligations that come with this age.

To be able to anger the old scholar Su to this extent, poor Su Li must have done something that angered both heaven and man.

"Thank you for your help!" Su Jiaoniang looked at Doctor Liu again.

If you do the math, Doctor Liu is a year or two older than Old Scholar Su, but Doctor Liu is in very good health and can still go hiking and dig up some medicinal herbs whenever he has time.

You can also hold down a goat all by yourself.

They gutted a live sheep.

Even a decent young person might not be able to do that much strength.

"What trouble is there? I heard from Futu that you brought back a batch of poppies from the provincial government?" Doctor Liu's eyes gleamed.

He became interested in the drug after using it once.

Unfortunately, no poppy seeds have been found yet; otherwise, he would have planted one himself and used it to extract anesthetic.

He's a doctor; he wouldn't do anything that would harm many people.

However, if something has both advantages and disadvantages.

He would definitely not give up this thing; he would use its advantages, but the drawback was that the imperial court should intervene to stop it.

"It's not much, I'll have someone send it over," Su Jiaoniang said.

A satisfied look appeared on Dr. Liu's face.

"Don't worry, Old Scholar Su is still young, not old at all. I guarantee he won't have any aftereffects."

Hearing Doctor Liu say this, Su Jiaoniang's face relaxed.

They headed towards the neighboring village.

Standing outside the gate of the house from the original owner's memories.

I heard Deng's sobbing coming from the courtyard.

She went inside and saw Xiao Bao squatting on the ground, looking at Deng Shi with red eyes.

He was in a state of panic, unsure how to deal with what was happening.

Ms. Deng sat on the stool, her eyes vacant.

She walked up to Deng, who remained silent.

Walking towards the house, it was spotless; even the clothes Su Li often wore were nowhere to be seen.

Su Jiaoniang asked her neighbors about what had happened.

turn out to be……

Su Li planned to marry Officer Chen's sister, making both Madam Deng and Miss Chen his wives. Miss Chen had absolutely no objection to this arrangement.

However, Deng disagreed.

Su Li seemed to be embarrassed and angry, feeling that Deng was very inconsiderate.

He planned to divorce his wife, but Old Su, the scholar, disagreed.

The couple had their share of ups and downs over the years. During the most difficult times, Deng did not leave, even after losing several children and her health deteriorated compared to when she first married into the family.

The Su family is now living a slightly better life.

The Deng family hasn't even had a chance to enjoy their good fortune yet.

Now my son has done such a terrible thing.

Old Scholar Su collapsed to the ground.

“I say, Su girl, why is your father so stubborn? I think Miss Chen is quite nice. She’s beautiful and young. Compared to Deng, she’s like a fairy from heaven. She’s more than a match for your brother. Anyone would be happy to have such a lucky son. Only your stubborn father would be happy!”

"Hehe!" Su Jiaoniang turned and left, originally intending to give her neighbor some gifts.

Hearing the woman speak like that, Su Jiaoniang no longer wanted to give anything.

She was a woman herself, and she knew very well what Ms. Deng needed.

After years of hard work, despite his poor health, he supported his family.

That was incredibly difficult.

Su Li unexpectedly fell in love with the sister of Officer Chen.

Is he even human?

They've lost even the most basic conscience.

As women, they only watch the spectacle, even sowing discord instead of offering help, gloating over the misfortune.

Su Jiaoniang returned to the courtyard across the street, pulled Xiaobao up, wiped his palms clean of the grime, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Hungry!" Xiao Bao nodded.

It is a little smaller than a pagoda.

It lacks the wisdom of a Buddha.

At such a young age, his clothes were torn in several places, making him look pitiful.

He watched Su Jiaoniang walk into the kitchen, and the aroma made his stomach rumble even louder.

However, he never left the Deng family's side.

He looked at Deng Shi cautiously.

Su Jiaoniang glanced back, quickly cooked a bowl of rice, served it to Xiaobao, and then looked at Deng Shi: "Say something?"

...Mr. Deng looked up.

The moment she saw Su Jiaoniang, she couldn't hold back her tears and they fell again.

Su Jiaoniang took a handkerchief and wiped away Deng's tears.

Help the person sit up on the bed.

The bed frame was bare, and the bedding was gone.

A scene flashed through Su Jiaoniang's mind: Su Li, along with the man surnamed Chen, looted all the valuables.
