"Just send me here. Thank you so much for sending me back today. Goodbye!"
Sister-in-law Liu Fang raised one foot slightly and touched the ground carefully, as if the ground would suddenly disappear.
After making sure she was standing firmly, she slowly lifted up her other foot. The whole movement was very cautious.
"I'd better walk you to the door. It's only a few steps away anyway."
Zhao Bo held the bicycle and looked at Liu Fang sincerely.
However, Liu Fang shook her head without hesitation, with an extremely firm attitude: "No, stop here!"
Zhao Bo stopped helplessly, pushing his bicycle and standing quietly opposite Liu Fang.
He felt a little embarrassed at this moment, after all, his kindness was rejected so decisively.
However, he knew very well that Liu Fang had no choice but to do so.
After all, reputation is of vital importance to a young widow.
As the saying goes, there is much gossip around a widow. If others see them walking too close, gossip is inevitable.
Thinking of this, Zhao Bo couldn't help but feel secretly annoyed, blaming himself for not thinking it through and being a little rash today.
Liu Bo laughed awkwardly, looked at her deeply, and couldn't help but ask with concern, "Your foot is badly sprained. When you walk, slow down a bit, so as not to hurt yourself again."
"I know."
Liu Fang responded softly, but her eyes were a little evasive and she didn't dare to look directly into Zhao Bo's eyes.
"Then I'll go back."
He took a deep breath and spoke slowly, with a hint of helplessness and reluctance in his voice.
"Go back, and ride slowly on the road." Liu Fang responded expressionlessly, her tone so flat that no emotion could be heard.
"good."
Zhao Bo nodded and turned to walk towards his bicycle. However, every step he took seemed so heavy, as if a heavy burden was pressing on him.
In fact, Zhao Bo didn't want to go home so early at all.
When he thought of the empty room at home, without any warmth at all, and himself staring at the air, the loneliness and solitude surged into his heart like a tide, making him feel extremely depressed.
However, Liu Fang's attitude was so firm and cold, like a stranger, and it seemed that she didn't want to have anything to do with him at all.
He had thought about pestering her shamelessly and trying to clarify this relationship, but he was afraid that doing so would only make her more annoyed.
After thinking it over, he had no choice but to suppress his reluctance and force himself to leave.
Just when Zhao Bo took two steps with his bicycle, the worry in his heart finally prevailed.
He was really worried about Liu Fang, so he couldn't help but turn around and raise his voice to shout to her: "When you get home, you must soak your feet in hot water and apply the ointment while it's still hot, so that the effect will be twice as good with half the effort."
After saying this, he let out a long sigh as if he had completed an important task.
Then, he turned around again, pedaled his bike without looking back, and disappeared at the end of the road...
Liu Fang lifted her injured foot with difficulty and limped slowly forward.
After taking only two steps, she keenly heard a loud voice coming from behind her. Like a frightened rabbit, she turned her head quickly as a conditioned reflex.
At the moment their eyes met, time seemed to freeze.
Liu Fang's eyes were full of panic, like a frightened deer.
She subconsciously took a quick glance at the surrounding streets and secretly thanked her luck: Fortunately, it is night now and the weather is bitterly cold. The streets are empty at this moment, and there is almost no one to be seen.
"I remember, you go back quickly!"
Liu Fang didn't have time to wait for the other party's response and turned around in a hurry.
She dragged her lame leg, her steps seemed a little unsteady, and she walked forward faster, taking deep and shallow steps.
It looked as if it was eager to get rid of something extremely difficult and terrifying.
However, at this moment, a concerned voice came from the front: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with your foot?"
Ruan Xiaotang was holding the garbage in the bucket and standing at the door of her house. She stared at her sister-in-law curiously under the dim street light opposite.
Liu Fang kept avoiding Ruan Xiaotang's sight out of guilt.
Still minding his own business, he moved forward quickly.
Ruan Xiaotang carried the bucket to the trash can and dumped the trash in the bucket.
His eyes were fixed on the man's blurry back.
Combined with the fact that my sister-in-law looked guilty just now.
I had a rough guess in my mind.
It turns out that the eldest sister-in-law in this family is really the spring that brings back the earth.
Not long after, another happy event was about to happen to the Zhou family.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded: "Wife, what's wrong with your feet?"
It turned out that Zhou's mother noticed that her eldest daughter-in-law walked in an unusual way and asked with concern.
The eldest daughter-in-law limped along with a forced smile on her face as she replied, "Mom, I'm fine. I just twisted my ankle when I was walking up the stairs. But don't worry, it's just a minor sprain, no bones hurt."
After hearing this, Zhou's mother quickly put on a coat, walked quickly to her eldest daughter-in-law, and carefully checked her injured foot.
Seeing that her eldest daughter-in-law's ankle was slightly red and swollen, but she could still move freely, Zhou's mother felt relieved.
She looked at her eldest daughter-in-law with eyes full of pity and said, "You must be more careful next time. What if she gets hurt badly?"
