Su Ruyi asked calmly, "Excuse me, Captain Ding—where should I stay?"
Ding Changsheng grinned crookedly: "Apart from the West Room, you can live wherever you like!"
After saying that, he left triumphantly with his two nephews.
Shulan immediately looked at Wang Chuntao: "Sister Chuntao..."
She hoped that Wang Chuntao would agree to let Su Ruyi squeeze into the east room.
Wang Chuntao opened her mouth but before she could speak, Su Tong came running back breathlessly and tugged at Su Ruyi's sleeve: "Doctor Jin said you should move to his yard!"
“Master…” Su Ruyi finally managed to exhale, her eyes immediately reddening.
Shulan, Li Wang, Shen Heping, and Ji Xuchang began helping Su Ruyi pack up the things that had been thrown outside the yard.
Half an hour later, the group helped Su Ruyi move to an empty, sunny room in Jin Dachun's backyard.
Jin Dachun laughed and said, "I knew you would face this calamity tonight!"
Su Ruyi laughed as well: "Wouldn't it have been useless to remind me, so Master, you simply didn't say anything?"
Jin Dachun stroked his beard, nodded, and remained silent.
Li Wang said from the side, "Su Zhiqing, don't be discouraged, justice will prevail!"
Ji Xuchang said, "This man is probably going to become the second Ding Daguo! He'll start running a one-man show again!"
Shen Heping said, "He's dreaming! Ruyi, don't worry, as soon as I get the chance, I'll go to my second uncle and report this Ding Changsheng!"
Shulan asked worriedly, "Then how will you eat?"
Su Ruyi laughed and said, "The pots and pans are all ready, I'll make them myself! I can even make Master's at the same time!"
Shulan thought for a moment and nodded: "That's settled then! I'll go get the grain for you right now!"
Li Wang nodded: "Let's go, let's hurry! Those opportunists at the educated youth compound might try something again!"
Ji Xuchang stopped Shulan: "Heping and I will go move it. You guys should go back and get some sleep. Tomorrow we'll have to work hard all day!"
These words reminded Su Ruyi, and she quickly took out four small black pills from her bag: "Take these, they're to replenish your nutrition and boost your strength, so you won't be so tired when you work tomorrow!"
These four pills were made by her yesterday.
Yesterday I studied an ancient book of prescriptions. After I finished studying it, all the patients who came in were asking for medicine.
Fortunately, the recipe was simple and the herbs were readily available, so she made quite a few extra.
There are pills for detoxification, diarrhea relief, pain relief, dispersing nodules and removing blood stasis, and even supplements like the four pills in her hand.
It's not a magic pill, but it's quite effective.
All four of them popped the pills into their mouths and swallowed them.
They looked at each other, felt nothing, and both started laughing stupidly.
Shulan counted the remaining money and handed eight yuan to Su Ruyi: "Here's the money back! Su Zhiqing, I'm so sorry!"
Su Ruyi took the money, then pulled a handful of fruit candies from her bag and gave them to her: "I should apologize, thank you so much these past few days! Take these candies!"
There were seven or eight large pieces of fruit candy, wrapped in pretty glass candy wrappers.
Shulan couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to accept it.
They exchanged a few more words and then left together.
Jin Dachun directed Su Tong to bring a new quilt from another room, which was then fumigated with mugwort and laid out for Su Ruyi.
"To get rid of bad luck!" he said.
Su Ruyi's bedding, which was splashed with water last time, is still wet and has been thrown outside in the yard. Now it's covered in mud.
Looking at the brand-new bedding and smelling the fresh scent of mugwort, Su Ruyi lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed) and sighed deeply.
Outside, Su Tong was taking apart and washing her bedding, with a set of clothes, also covered in mud, piled up at her feet.
Before he went back, I rushed to wash her clean.
The room that Jin Dachun gave to Su Ruyi was the east room, which was also the largest of the four rooms in the courtyard.
Jin Dachun just said that he doesn't live in this east room, but in the small north room, because he is old and lacks yang energy, and this house is too big.
Su Ruyi thought it made a lot of sense.
This room is three times larger than the west wing of the educated youth compound.
A large kang (heated brick bed) is big enough for five or six people to sleep sideways.
Not only are there tables and chairs, but there are also two large cabinets and a row of bookshelves.
The accommodation was ten times better than the west wing of the educated youth compound.
There's a well right in the yard, so there's no need to fetch water from the Dading River.
Su Ruyi's enthusiasm for building a house has somewhat waned.
Then I thought of my fifth brother and realized that we still had to build a house.
Dr. Jin let her stay because of the teacher-student relationship; it wasn't something he owed her.
If she wanted to live with her fifth brother, she would have to build her own house.
As for Ding Changsheng...
Shen Ji and his companion brought the grain. Su Tong washed and hung the clothes to dry, then gave Su Ruyi a few more instructions before everyone dispersed.
The light in Jin Dachun's north room went out quickly.
Su Ruyi returned to the east room and reviewed the events of the evening, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
At this moment, Zhong Misu, who was lying quietly in the darkness, was separated from Su Ruyi by only one wall.
After Shulan returned to the educated youth compound, she did not send anyone to carry Zhong Misu.
In her opinion, those who hurt Su Ruyi were all bad people, and she didn't want to meddle in their business.
Jin Dachun did come to the treatment room, but he only took away the light, plunging him into complete darkness.
Listening to the commotion in the backyard in the darkness, Zhong Misu understood that Su Ruyi had been kicked out by Su Qiaoqiao.
The new captain is backing up Su Qiaoqiao.
Zhong Misu thought of Su Qiaoqiao's family background, which she had always been proud of.
It seems she must have used her family's connections in Haicheng.
Zhong Misu became deeply worried.
Can Su Ruyi defeat Su Qiaoqiao?
As he was thinking this, Su Ruyi was releasing her divine sense to examine the surrounding environment.
Soon, Su Ruyi discovered Zhong Misu lying in the darkness.
They are separated by only one wall.
But her consciousness did not linger for a moment before withdrawing.
After locking the door, she slipped into the space.
I helped Fifth Brother move his arms and legs and turn him over.
Fifth Brother's condition has improved; the wounds on his face and body have begun to scab over.
It will likely leave scars.
She plans to treat these scars slowly after her fifth brother "sees the light of day" again.
After soaking herself in the bathtub, Su Ruyi stared wide-eyed, trying hard not to fall asleep.
But the water in the bathtub was too comfortable, and her eyelids began to droop involuntarily.
That night, she fell into a deep sleep in the bathtub again.
...
The villagers of Dingjiatun were awakened by the heat early the next morning.
The sun rose exceptionally early that day; by seven o'clock, the earth was scorching hot.
When Su Ruyi woke up, Jin Dachun was already standing in the yard practicing boxing.
Although he had lost a leg and could only perform upper body movements, he still fought meticulously.
Su Ruyi could tell that his set of boxing techniques was related to health preservation, but she couldn't figure out the underlying principles.
Jin Dachun was in a good mood: "Did you sleep well? Why is your hair wet? Did you wash your hair in the house first thing this morning?"
