Xu Cuimei couldn't move, so she could only grit her teeth and watch Tao Wenwen and the others leave with resentment and unwillingness.
It was not until the villagers came back after washing their hands that Xu Cuimei reluctantly sat up on the ground. Seeing that she was covered in dust, the villagers did not go forward to help her up this time.
They carried their own hoes back to the fields to work, and continued to talk about the incident as a joke, commenting on Xu Cuimei's behavior.
After hearing everyone's harsh words, Xu Cuimei could no longer hold on. She struggled to stand up, wiping her tears with one hand and covering her pants with the other, and ran away while enduring the pain.
…
Tao Wenwen instructed Xu Xiaoyun and Wang Xiaosi to wash the herbs they brought back, and then took Gao Yue upstairs.
She closed the door and couldn't wait to lift up Gao Yue's clothes to check.
As she thought, the wound that had been sutured opened and started bleeding again.
Tao Wenwen rolled up his sleeves and exhaled, then thought he'd lost out. "Three isn't enough. I should have added three more!"
Gao Yue was sitting on the bed. He couldn't help but chuckle when he heard her words. The laughter pulled at his wound and he groaned again.
"If she gets hit three more times, she'll probably be done for," Gao Yue said.
He heard all three hits Tao Wenwen gave Xu Cuimei.
Three solid and fierce blows, the pain lasted for ten days or half a month and could not be relieved at all.
"That's what she deserves. Why pick on me when there are so many other people to pick on?" Tao Wenwen snorted coldly, not feeling that she had done anything wrong.
She took the gauze and re-bandaged Gao Yue's wound.
"You really are..."
Having said that, she suddenly stopped talking and looked at Gao Yue with complicated eyes.
Gao Yue couldn't see her expression, but from her voice it seemed that she was in a bad mood.
He asked, "What's wrong?"
"If you hadn't pulled me away, you wouldn't have been beaten." Tao Wenwen said.
She was originally prepared to kick Xu Cuimei away, and in her eyes, Gao Yue's behavior was "unnecessary"!
But this "unnecessary move" made her feel sad.
So this is what it feels like to be protected by someone.
Gao Yue noticed the change in her voice and was startled. "Are you crying?"
Tao Wenwen's emotion was just brief, and she had recovered by the time Gao Yue finished speaking.
She snorted and thought to herself, how could she possibly cry? "I'm thinking too much!"
Gao Yue continued her words, "You're right. I'm the only one who can bully my people. If anyone dares to touch them, they're against me! I may be blind, but I'm not deaf. If I hear anything, of course I have to stop it."
He thought that this carrying pole was also a disadvantage. If he was not blind and not injured, no one would be able to touch him even a hair.
Tao Wenwen looked at him, "When did I become yours?"
"You said I'm yours, so conversely, you're mine too." Gao Yue said, "Isn't that right?"
"It seems...that's right." Tao Wenwen felt that what he said was wrong, but she also felt that there was some truth to it. It was actually not a bad feeling to have someone of your own to protect you.
She patted Gao Yue's shoulder and said solemnly, "Don't worry, I've found some new herbs that will definitely cure your eyes. I'll take care of your health from now on!"
What do you mean by "she is covering his body"? This is also weird.
What’s even stranger is that Gao Yue understood it.
He said, "If you can't cure the disease, I'll label you a quack. If you can cure it, I'll pay you."
