The next morning, the villagers watched helplessly as Yu Min's police car sped away, taking Su Tie away.
The entire Dingjiatun was in an uproar—
"The cycad that had been missing for so long has been taken away by the police!"
"I dare say he killed all nine members of the Ding family! Do you believe me?"
"He can kill nine people by himself?"
"It's hard to say! Wang Meiju, who bullied him the most before, and his cheap wife Ding Xiuling, have both disappeared without a trace!"
"Yes, only these two women from the Ding family are missing; the others are all fine!"
"Let me tell you, this case was definitely committed by that slut from the Ding family who lives by the river, together with this educated youth Su Tie! I discovered a long time ago that that slut was hooking up with Su Tie!"
"Yes, yes, yes! That slut has a deep grudge against the Ding family! She's finally picked a fool this time! I heard they're getting married soon!"
"Do you know why we need to get a marriage certificate?"
"What else could it be? She's about to show!"
"Oh my, Su Tie has really become a father this time!"
...
Su Ruyi listened to the village women's discussion.
Although she was just brewing a cooling soup in the courtyard, her overly sensitive hearing allowed her to hear every sarcastic remark.
Jin Dachun heard it too.
This morning, Su Ruyi got up very early and used gold needles to knock him unconscious.
Then they dragged him into the space and fed him the Marrow Cleansing Soup.
When Jin Dachun woke up again, he felt full of energy, and his broken leg was still tingling and numb.
As a veteran traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, he naturally knew that it was his own bones and muscles that were growing.
But why did it suddenly accelerate?
Then, he felt that his half-deaf ears could actually hear the faint "plop" sound of a Sichuan fritillary bulb falling onto his cloth shoe.
Then he heard the village women talking.
He moved to the base of the courtyard wall and cleared his throat loudly: "What are you doing gossiping under someone's wall so early in the morning! Are you all just bored?"
Su Ruyi was taken aback at first, then smiled.
It seems the Marrow Cleansing Decoction is working!
Unexpectedly, the person Jin Dachun thought was outside the wall completely ignored his reprimand and continued to gossip enthusiastically.
The old man, furious, leaned on his cane and pushed open the courtyard gate.
To my surprise, there was no one outside the courtyard.
At this moment, the sound of gossip could still be clearly heard.
The old man was immediately terrified: "Ruyi! Ruyi!"
Su Ruyi was filtering the medicine and couldn't put it down for a while, so she waited until the sifting was finished before running out: "What's wrong, Master?"
Jin Dachun had steadied himself and revealed a mysterious smile: "Ruyi, it seems that Heaven won't take me this year!"
"Master, what are you saying!" Su Ruyi was terrified.
"Hey! I'm so old now, I don't even care about life and death anymore. Ruyi, I thought my lifespan was coming to an end, but I never expected this! Ruyi, I feel like I'm about to become young again!"
Jin Dachun said mysteriously, "This must be the result of all the good deeds I've accumulated in my life, and now they're starting to benefit me!"
"Master, what's wrong? Can you say something I can understand?" Su Ruyi suppressed a laugh.
"I'm not deaf anymore! I woke up one morning and I wasn't deaf anymore!"
Jin Dachun was so happy he almost danced with joy. If it weren't for his broken leg, he would have definitely given Su Ruyi a 180-degree turn on the spot.
Su Ruyi smiled sincerely as she looked at the beaming old man.
After Yu Min took Su Tie away, she went around in circles and left him downstream of the Da Ding River.
Cycas traveled upstream along the banks of the Dading River until it reached the vicinity of Ding Xiuping's shack.
Her shack was quite close to the river, yet far from the village and the educated youth settlement.
Breaking free from his previous way of thinking, Su Tie now looks at this place more and more and more and feels that something is wrong—what kind of good person would live in such a place?
If, as Ding Xiuping said, her father left her a large sum of money before he died, then she would definitely build a house in the village to live in.
Even if things don't go well, if she's concerned about the influence of Wang Meiju's family, she could start anew in another village. Why does she have to stay in a shack where it's difficult to even turn around?
Cycas climbed up a large locust tree, straddled a branch, and concealed himself.
He took out the two sugar cakes that Su Ruyi had packed for him from his pocket, chewed them, and then took out the water bottle that Su Ruyi had given him to carry on his back and drank a few mouthfuls of cooling soup.
From this vantage point, the entire shack is laid out before you.
Ding Xiuping didn't get up until after nine o'clock in the morning.
Su Tie discovered another problem—how did Ding Xiuping, who never went to work, survive?
Ding Xiuping yawned as she arrived at the Dading River and first dipped her hands in the water for a while.
Yesterday, Su Tie used a red-hot needle to prick each of the blisters on her hands, and it must be very painful now.
She soaked her hands for a while, then returned to the shore, took off her pants, and urinated a long stream of urine.
Su Tie quickly closed his eyes and turned his head away.
But soon, Ding Xiuping's sweet voice came over: "What are you doing! Be careful someone might be there!"
Su Tie turned his head and saw that Ding Silai, the village's old rascal, was hugging Ding Xiuping's waist from behind and wouldn't let go, while Ding Xiuping was standing facing Su Tie, not struggling at all.
Ding Xiuping hadn't even pulled up her pants; the scene was incredibly cringe-worthy.
Su Tie felt the veins in his temples throbbing.
No matter how much Ding Xiuping struggled, Ding Silai held her tightly and wouldn't let go: "What nonsense! Are you waiting for that pretty boy from the educated youth? Is that educated youth stupid? How could he be fooled by you with chicken heart blood? He's just a greenhorn!"
Ding Xiuping's face fell: "Four rascals! What are you trying to do? If Su Tie sees this, we'll be in deep trouble no matter what!"
"We're already in a mess! My son is in your belly!"
Ding Silai grinned and said, "I'm here to tell you that your pretty boy was taken away by a police car early this morning!"
"What did you say?!"
Ding Xiuping's face turned deathly pale. "Su Tie has been arrested?!"
"Mmm!"
Ding Silai nonchalantly groped her, saying, "Now you can't marry that gigolo. You'll have to marry the family I told you about! It's in the next village, not far away, and nobody there knows about you! We can still see each other from time to time!"
"Those people in the Ding family compound were killed by Su Tie! Su Tie must have killed them for me!"
Ding Xiuping trembled all over, "He did it for me! He's so foolish..."
Seeing that Ding Xiuping was about to cry, Ding Silai immediately felt disheartened.
He took out ten yuan:
"Spend this money first, think it over carefully, marrying that cripple won't be a bad deal for you!"
He's a lone ghost in his family, easy to manipulate!
My son in your belly will finally be able to live a legitimate life!
If you can't get along with him anymore, we can talk it over properly then!
His family has four large brick houses!
Four rooms!
Big brick house!!!
