Chapter 30: Sprinkle Salt
"You saved my child's life, you deserve it."
The woman pulled the child and insisted on kowtow to Ye Wangshu.
Seeing the woman about to kneel down again, Ye Wangshu hurriedly stopped her, "Really, there's no need. You're shortening my lifespan."
"But……"
"Maybe I'll need help from my sister-in-law in the future. Does she have to ask me to kneel down before she helps me?"
"Of course not."
"So it's just a small favor for me, so you don't have to kneel down." Ye Wangshu smiled at the woman and rubbed the child's head. "You must be tired after all this time! Hurry up and eat and rest!"
The woman looked at Ye Wangshu with gratitude and nodded.
When the others saw Ye Wangshu escape, they hurriedly surrounded him.
"Jin Cong's wife, you can actually heal people! If you had told us you were a doctor earlier, we wouldn't have stopped you just now!"
"Yeah! How did you save Gou'er? Even Dr. Song said he couldn't be saved."
“…”
Listening to everyone's questions, Ye Wangshu shook his head slightly.
"I don't have a license, so I'm not considered a doctor. As for how to save people..."
Ye Wangshu waved at Zhou Jincong, "Husband, come over and help me."
Zhou Jincong came directly to Ye Wangshu without saying a word, his eyes always on Ye Wangshu.
Ye Wangshu smiled sweetly at Zhou Jincong, then turned to the crowd and said, "Let me demonstrate the Heikrim First Aid Method to everyone."
"Everyone must not panic when encountering something. Although tapping the back is effective, it may also lead to other dangers."
After demonstrating it to everyone, Ye Wangshu was met with everyone's surprised looks.
"Jin Cong's wife, you are so strong? You can even carry Jin Cong!"
Ye Wangshu chuckled and scratched his head embarrassedly, "I do have some strength, but it's still very tiring."
"It's getting late, let's go back!"
With Ye Wangshu's reminder, everyone remembered that it was getting late and they had to go back to cook.
After everyone left, Ye Wangshu and Zhou Jincong also returned home hand in hand.
Song Ruanruan looked at the two men's backs and felt a hint of jealousy in her heart. Not only did everyone surround Ye Wangshu just now, but some people even looked at her with a questioning look, as if asking why she was so useless.
The more Song Ruanruan thought about it, the angrier she became. She turned around and left only after Ye Wangshu and Zhou Jincong disappeared.
The news that Ye Wangshu's medical skills were better than Song Ruanruan's spread throughout the village in an instant.
The two of them were at home. Zhou's mother was already cooking, so Ye Wangshu didn't go over.
"Honey, I want to go see the paddy fields. Do you want to come with me?" Ye Wangshu looked at Zhou Jincong and blinked playfully.
Zhou Jincong swallowed and nodded, the warmth he felt when Ye Wangshu held him in his arms echoing in his mind.
"What's going on!"
Looking at the motionless leech, Ye Wangshu felt a pain in his heart and a sore feeling in his nose.
"Maybe they're just not used to it..." Zhou Jincong patted Ye Wangshu on the back, "It's okay, there are still many alive!"
Ye Wangshu shook his head, his eyes fixed on a white spot at the edge of the field.
The two of them moved closer. Ye Wangshu dipped his index finger in the white substance and sniffed it. "It's salt!"
"Salt?" Zhou Jincong's heart skipped a beat. Unconvinced, he smeared some on it and put it in his mouth to taste it. "It really is salt."
"Someone is deliberately doing this. Leeches will die if they come into contact with salt. Who on earth could be so bold as to do this?"
A surge of anger surged in Ye Wangshu's heart. He took a deep breath and went to turn on the water.
Zhou Jincong and Ye Wangshu jumped down and helped her pick out the dead leeches.
"More than half of it was lost, and I lost a lot of money."
Zhou Jincong patted Ye Wangshu on the shoulder and promised softly, "I will definitely find out who is responsible and make him compensate you for all your losses."
Ye Wangshu nodded, and while waterproofing the field again, he secretly bought some leech seedlings from the supermarket and threw them into the water.
"Don't be depressed. Everything is difficult at the beginning. I believe you will succeed."
Zhou Jincong saw Ye Wangshu frowning and couldn't help feeling a little worried.
Ye Wangshu nodded, but the conversation between Li Xiaoxia and Zhou Xiaohong that day was echoing in his mind.
Li Xiaoxia can even give people laxatives, so it is very likely that she would sprinkle salt on the fields.
Li Xiaoxia is a cunning person. She will not admit it unless there is evidence in front of her.
The more Ye Wangshu thought about it, the deeper his frown grew. When he thought of Zhou Xiaohong with her innocent face, he felt that the breakthrough could only come from her.
As soon as he got home, Ye Wangshu went to find Zhou Xiaohong.
"Little sister, what did you do today?"
Ye Wangshu stared at Zhou Xiaohong's face carefully, trying to find any flaws.
Zhou Xiaohong raised her eyes to glance at Ye Wangshu, then turned her head away with disdain on her face. "What I do is none of your business. You have the leisure time to go out and play with my second brother, but I don't have the time for that."
"Little sister, you..." Ye Wangshu frowned and looked at Zhou Xiaohong. For a moment, he was not sure whether her attitude was due to guilt or dislike for him.
"I just want to ask you a question. Did you spread salt on the paddy fields?"
Instead of testing, it’s better to ask directly. Ye Wangshu stared at Zhou Xiaohong intently.
Zhou Xiaohong was visibly stunned, then looked at Ye Wangshu with a puzzled expression and said, "Why would I spread salt on the fields when I have nothing better to do? Am I just too bored, or is salt free?!"
"That sister-in-law..."
Before Ye Wangshu could finish his words, Zhou Xiaohong spoke first.
"Sister-in-law has always been very careful with her money, how could she possibly throw salt into your insect-raising business!"
