Chapter 28 Cancellation of the Wedding (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Little fairy?
This title was new to her.
Xu Qingmo did not respond to the question about the form of address, but took the porcelain bottle and said, "I will come again tonight, and I should be fully recovered by tomorrow."
"What kind of medicine is this made from?" The barefoot doctor clicked his tongue. He had been dealing with herbs for two or three decades, but he still couldn't figure out what herbal ingredients were in it.
However, it works very quickly after you drink it.
He remembered that when he was studying medicine, his teacher told him that many drugs have immediate effects, but they also have some hidden risks.
He wasn't worried that Xu Qingmo would harm him; he just wanted to know the ingredients and see if he could extract them.
Perhaps it can be used to treat rabies in the future.
Xu Qingmo didn't offer much explanation. "You've already called me Little Fairy, so what I gave you must be fairy water. As for what it's made of, I can't say."
The barefoot doctor accepted this explanation.
Xu Qingmo turned to leave, but was stopped by Grandma Wang as soon as she stepped out the door. Grandma Wang questioned her, "What did you give the barefoot doctor? Why is his complexion getting rosier?"
The barefoot doctor is now in physical condition comparable to that of a young man.
Xu Qingmo pouted, "Guess."
Ignoring Grandma Wang, Xu Qingmo addressed the crowd, "The barefoot doctor doesn't have rabies. If you need to see him, continue seeing him. Those who are scared, go home. No one is allowed to cause him any trouble in the future. Otherwise, watch out for your kitchens. If you accidentally burn one down, it'll be your own fault."
Xu Qingmo finished speaking and turned to leave.
Grandma Wang realized something and immediately followed Xu Qingmo.
The others stood at the door of the barefoot doctor's house, looking at each other in bewilderment, none daring to go inside first.
The children in the yard were helped up, and the barefoot doctor cleaned and bandaged their leg and arm injuries.
Holding her child, the mother steeled herself and rushed into the house, seeking help from the barefoot doctor to examine her child.
The villagers were relieved to see that Stinky Egg's mother had not been bitten by the barefoot doctor.
On the other side, Grandma Wang tried her best to catch up with Xu Qingmo, but the distance between the two remained at two meters. No matter how fast or slow she sped up, she couldn't get rid of this distance.
Grandma Wang followed Xu Qingmo as she pushed open the door and entered the room, her feet swaying as she went.
"Little girl, what did you give the barefoot doctor to drink? Give me a serving too." Grandma Wang didn't stand on ceremony and asked for it directly.
Xu Qingmo looked at her with disdain, "Do I owe you anything?"
“You’ve hit the nail on the head. If you hadn’t stopped me from cooking here, my grandson and son wouldn’t have been bitten by a rabid dog. One of them would have died and the other would still be alive. Besides, you knocked out two of my front teeth. I’ll let that go for now, as long as you give me a good porcelain vase.”
Grandma Liu came out of the kitchen with a spatula in her hand and angrily confronted Grandma Wang.
"I say, you old hag, you really know how to smear people. Why don't you blame yourself for marrying Xu Guangcai and having a son, and your son for having a grandson? They suffer all this because they are associated with your family and follow your family."
"Stop trying to help me out here, you have no right to speak." Grandma Wang endured the pain and was too lazy to continue arguing with Grandma Liu.
Normally, when she's in excellent health, I definitely wouldn't have let her off the hook.
But now she feels pain for a while even if she doesn't say a word.
Save my son first, then we'll think about everything else.
She's too old to have any more children, but her son is still young and can find a woman who can give him a grandson.
"If the road is uneven, people will step on it. I just can't stand your behavior. What are you going to do about it?" Grandma Liu said, hands on her hips, full of arrogance.
Grandma Wang was hit where it hurt and pointed at Grandma Liu, angrily cursing her out.
"Old man, what are you? If you were also kicked out by Xu Qingmo, you'd probably cause even more trouble than me."
"I'm not like you, acting against my conscience."
Xu Qingmo was hungry, so she asked Grandma Liu to turn off the stove and go to the kitchen to cook.
Grandma Wang was panting heavily, but she still wouldn't back down. "You're so young, how can you be so wicked? You clearly had something that could save lives, but you hid it and waited until my grandson died before taking it out. You're clearly a murderer."
Xu Qingmo propped her chin on her hand and said, "That's right, I am the murderer. You should call the police and arrest me. I'll be sent in for ideological education."
"You, you, you...you naughty brat."
Xu Qingmo picked up a wooden stick, and suddenly one end of the stick burst into flames.
There was no flammable material to ignite it; it simply caught fire on its own.
Grandma Wang was terrified by what she saw and took a few steps back in fear.
"That's right, I'm bad, so what can you do about it?"
“I have life-saving medicine, but I won’t give it to you. Instead, I’ll give it to that barefoot doctor you hate to help him treat his rabies. What can you do about it?”
The words came one after another like sharp knives, stabbing Grandma Wang's heart again and again.
She gritted her teeth and declared, "You brat, I'll risk my life to fight you!"
Grandma Wang was about to step forward when her arm was touched by a burning stick, which burned a large bump on her arm and set her clothes on fire.
She frantically tried to find water to put out the fire, but Xu Qingmo simply threw her outside, leaving her to wail and scream outside.
Afterwards, the villagers were all talking about how Xu Guangcai's wife's clothes had caught fire in the sun and burned completely. She was the second person in the village to run home naked.
The previous person was Wang Xiuzhi, who is now hiding at her parents' home and dares not return to Xujia Village.
Grandma Liu's cooking was excellent; Xu Qingmo ate with grease dripping from her lips.
Xu Yuanyuan stood at the door, leaning on her body, and smacked her lips as she smelled the aroma of meat.
Every time Xu Qingmo ate a bite of meat, she would swallow several mouthfuls of saliva.
I dream of snatching that meat and putting it in my mouth.
"Is anyone home?" Zhou, the matchmaker from the next village, stood at the door and peered inside, but dared not easily step across the threshold.
She knew how fierce Wang Xiuzhi was, but if the Wang family hadn't been urging her so urgently, she wouldn't have wanted to make this trip.
Xu Yuanyuan heard a familiar voice and assumed that the Wang family was coming to beg for reconciliation, so she immediately went to find a mirror to dress herself up.
After a while, she made sure she was alright, and then limped over to open the door for Zhou the matchmaker.
When Zhou, the matchmaker, saw Xu Yuanyuan's face, she was startled.
Even though I've seen it several times before, I still couldn't help but be startled when I saw it again.
It's really not good-looking.
"Aunt Zhou, what brings you here? Did Wang Hao's family send you?" Xu Yuanyuan asked shyly.
Matchmaker Zhou gave an awkward smile, "Yes."
"Come inside quickly, there are stools here."
"Where is your mother? Is she home?" Zhou the matchmaker came over after hearing that Wang Xiuzhi had gone back to her parents' home, but she was afraid that Wang Xiuzhi would sneak back and hide at home, so she quickly asked about the situation just in case.
Xu Yuanyuan said, "My mom went to my maternal grandmother's house. Although she's not home, she can talk to me about anything."
As soon as the matchmaker sat down, she made it clear why she had come today.
"The Wang family said that your marriage is canceled, and they asked me to take back the things they gave you."
