Zhou Shu and his wife paid a price, but their siblings also suffered as a result. It can be said that they hurt the enemy by 800 and suffered 1,000 of their own.
Li Rui was only eighteen years old, and he felt really bad after hearing that, so he kept comforting Zhou Xiaoju all the way.
When they returned, the yard had been cleaned up by Niu Aixiang, the scattered herbs had been picked up, and Zhao Heping was using a hammer to repair the rack for drying the herbs.
The tabby cat, who usually jumps up and down, looked particularly lonely lying on the ground. After being given away for adoption by his mother, he lost his younger sister.
This little tabby cat is a male cat. Compared to when he first came two months ago, his body size has increased by more than half. He is not fat, but he is no longer skinny. Instead, his fur is shiny and it is obvious that he is well taken care of.
"You're back? How's Xiaoju? She wasn't bullied, was she?" Niu Aixiang hurried over to ask her.
Zhou Xiaoju shook her head. "No, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang are very nice people. They didn't force me to do it even if I didn't want to."
"That's good, that's good. I was so worried." Niu Aixiang patted her chest in relief. As she lost weight, even the little fat on her chest was gone.
But after learning that Xiao Hei had been buried, Zhou Xiaoju, who had forced herself to remain calm the whole time, could no longer hold back and broke down crying.
Although these two cats were provided by Jiang Nian, they had been taken care of by Zhou Xiaoju since she came. They were also friends who provided her with emotional value when she was most helpless.
The little black cat was kicked to death because it saved her.
Such a big commotion here naturally could not be hidden from the village chief's family.
Village Chief Zhou held a meeting at the cooperative today, otherwise Zhou Shugen's family would not have done such a stupid thing.
But the incident had already happened, and he was helpless.
Walking into the yard, he frowned and said, "Xiao Ju, I'm glad you're okay. Fortunately, it's not too late to save the situation. I've already criticized your father and grandfather. I criticized them by name in front of the villagers at the meeting in the evening. I believe they won't dare to do this to you again. You...you should relax and live here. Jiang Nian is a girl. You should be more skillful here. If you can learn one tenth of her skills, it will be your good fortune."
Originally, he wanted to talk to Jiang Nian and let his granddaughter learn medicine from her, but he was afraid that his granddaughter was still young, so he wanted to wait and see the situation.
But right now, Zhou Xiaoju obviously needs this opportunity more.
I don’t know whether Village Chief Zhou will regret it many years later.
Of course, Jiang Nian had never promised to teach anyone medical skills. He usually gave Zhou Xiaoju some instructions so that she could help with processing the medicinal materials.
Village Chief Zhou's words made Zhou Xiaoju understand what he meant. It was always like this. As long as nothing serious happened, he would just try to smooth things over and deal with the current situation.
If the issue had been dealt with seriously from the beginning, perhaps their family wouldn't have ended up like this.
Her mother was forced to agree to the divorce out of helplessness. If there was a little hope, who would be willing to give up her good home to someone else?
She knew it better than anything else, but she could do nothing about it because she was a weak person and needed help from others even to survive. What right did she have to refute?
Zhou Xiaoju was worried, but Jiang Nian didn't have so many concerns.
"Uncle Zhou, I may not care about other people's affairs, but this is my place. Zhou Shugen not only smashed my medicine, but also kicked my cat to death. I can't just let it go like this, can I?" Jiang Nian said, "Oh, and the 80 yuan they sold Zhou Xiaoju for was also paid by me to bring her back, but I can't let an outsider be responsible for this money, right?"
