Chapter 96: Etiquette and Integrity



The next morning, Su Huaiyue prepared to set off while admiring the refreshing village scenery after last night's heavy rain.

The sunlight shines through the dense and sparse leaves onto the ground, turning the water droplets on the ground into small rainbows.

At Lord Li's command, the team prepared to set off.

After walking a few steps, I saw a large crowd of people in front of me.

People in the village came to see them off, and many brought some simple food.

They ran straight to the Wei family and found Su Huaiyue, holding various kinds of food in their hands.

Vegetables, eggs and some potatoes.

The villagers' simple faces were filled with smiles.

"Thank you, Madam Wei, for saving my grandson. If it weren't for you, I, an old woman, don't know how I would have survived."

"Yes, yes, Madam Wei is truly a miracle doctor who has come to the world to save all living beings."

"These are just some of our gifts, please accept them."

Su Huaiyue smiled, feeling embarrassed to accept their kindness. After all, the village was located in a remote area, and the farmers cultivated their own crops and were very poor.

"Thank you all for your kindness. I won't accept any gifts, as long as the thought is there."

She said, her tone gentle but firm.

Li Zheng walked out from among the villagers and bowed deeply to Su Huaiyu: "Madam Wei, thank you for your generous rescue. May your journey be safe and smooth!"

Su Huaiyue hurriedly helped the village chief up.

"Thank you, village chief. I hope you will get better and better."

Turning her head, she noticed Wei Ersao busy in the crowd.

"Come on, just give it to me. I'm her sister-in-law, I'll hold it for her."

Wei Ersao's face was full of smiles. She couldn't take the things in her hands away and kept forcing them in.

Su Huaiyue's face darkened and he walked forward quickly.

"Second sister-in-law, do you have any manners or shame? Don't take these things, give them back to them!"

There was undeniable determination in her voice.

Mrs. Wei's face was displeased, but she couldn't refute it, so she pretended to be wronged and said, "I'm also thinking about you. After all, with so many things, it's rare to see such a thoughtful gesture."

Su Huaiyue waited for her, but her tone remained firm: "No matter how good your intentions are, you must consider everyone's difficulties. The villagers themselves have a hard time living, so we can't be greedy."

She returned the things to the villagers one by one. They were a little surprised at first, but soon they respected her more.

They knew that Su Huaiyue was not only kind-hearted and compassionate, but also genuinely cared about their lives.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the system.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for being considerate of the villagers. The system rewards you with 1000 packs of Weilong spicy strips.]

These few words made her speechless.

Although she was accustomed to the system's random rewards, it was still a bit unexpected when it appeared at this time.

"Is this a system for cultivating the Virgin Mary?"

She complained secretly in her heart, but couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly.

Not far away, Wei Zhi and Wei Li were playing with the children in the village. From time to time, they looked back at Su Huaiyue, their faces full of reluctance to leave.

"Mom, the people here are so nice. Can we come here more often in the future?"

Wei Zhi ran over and hugged Su Huaiyue's legs, his eyes full of anticipation.

Su Huaiyue stroked his hair gently and agreed with a smile: "Okay, we will come to see them often in the future, and also see your little friends."

Soon, their group gradually disappeared in the reluctant eyes of the villagers.

On the way, Su Huaiyue turned around and looked at the village gradually getting farther away, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Although she felt the kindness and care of the villagers,

"Alas, we've been delayed in this village for a whole day. The journey ahead is going to be difficult. We're almost out of food, and they won't let us take some. What if we can't reach the next stop?"

Wei Ersao walked at the other end with dragging steps, unable to help complaining.

Her tone was blaming, as if she wanted Su Huaiyue to hear it on purpose.

Su Huaiyue did not respond immediately.

At this moment, Wei Che looked at Wei Ersao with a strong warning in his eyes.

His slightly majestic voice came: "Second sister-in-law, our family has never relied on charity from others. Su Huaiyue did the right thing, you shouldn't say any more."

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the villagers were barely able to dig up tree roots and eat dirt, so how could they have the nerve to accept other people's gifts?

When Wei Ersao heard this, her face looked a little embarrassed and her brows furrowed, but she finally shut her mouth.

Although he had many complaints about his narrow-minded sister-in-law, he was unwilling to say another word.

Su Huaiyue felt secretly happy in her heart, thinking that every evildoer will be punished by every evildoer.

She turned her head and smiled slightly to show her gratitude.

Wei Che's eyes were firm, but his expression relaxed: "Don't think too much, I just think what she said is inappropriate."

The crowd continued on their way. The long road seemed to have no end, and the only sounds in their ears were the rustling of leaves and the occasional sound of wind.

As they walked, Wei Zhi and Wei Li began to doze off. One leaned in Su Huaiyue's arms, and the other leaned in Wei Sisao's arms and fell asleep like sweet kittens.

Su Huaiyue gently covered them with a blanket, her heart full of tenderness.

They continued to move forward on the mountain road, facing the gentle mountain breeze, and the sunlight shone through the scattered clouds onto everyone on the road.

Su Huaiyue looked at the scenery not far away, her thoughts still wandering.

After a long time, Lord Li ordered a rest.

Su Huaiyue held Li'er and sat beside a big tree, patting his back gently to comfort him.

Feeling the turbulence had stopped, Wei Li opened his eyes and looked around confusedly: "Mom is a little thirsty."

Hearing this, Su Huaiyue took out a water bag from his waist, handed it to Li'er's mouth, and fed her a sip.

She held the water bag in her hand, hesitated for a while, and finally said to Wei Che: "You should drink some too."

Wei Che took the water bag and inevitably frowned after taking a sip, which made Su Huaiyue feel helpless.

Wei Che raised the water bag in his hand and asked directly, "What exactly is the water in this water bag? Every time I drink it, I always feel strange in my body. Recently, the wound on my leg has also had a burning sensation."

The look in his eyes when he looked at Su Huaiyue was full of inquiry and suspicion, and his tone was questioning.

After hearing this, Su Huaiyue felt a little unhappy. She took the water bag back from him and put on a faint smile on her face: "Oh, of course it's poison."

Wei Che looked at her with a frown on his face, obviously not satisfied with her answer: "The person who poisoned Su Huaiyue will never admit that he poisoned her."

Su Huaiyue glanced at him lightly and said calmly, "Since you doubt me, I can only give you the answer you want."

Wei Che was speechless for a moment when he heard her answer so casually.

Obviously, he didn't expect Su Huaiyue to say that.

So he sat down and thought about it and said, "I just want to know where this water comes from."
