"Thump!"
With a muffled thud, Su Yifan curled up into a ball, protecting the little dumpling in his arms as they landed.
"Little sister, are you alright?" Su Yifan's voice clearly contained gasps of pain.
The little dumpling quickly scrambled to his feet, "No, I'm fine, Third Brother, how are you? Where does it hurt?"
Seeing the little girl's flustered movements and her big, bright eyes filled with panic, Su Yifan reached out and gently pinched her pert little nose. "Brother is fine, it's just... just a little back pain, I think I twisted it a bit."
Upon receiving the notification from the production team, Su Yan rushed over in a panic, asking, "Su Yifan, how are you? Are you dead?"
Su Yifan's expression was indescribable.
Without thinking much, the little dumpling answered loudly, "Fourth brother, third brother is fine, he just twisted his waist."
A sly, fox-like smile flashed across Su Yan's eyes. "Oh, then it's really alright. He's had a bad back since he was little!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Su Yan raised an eyebrow slightly. "Isn't that right? I remember you twisted your back when you were twelve, fighting with your classmates from the gifted youth program, and then twisted it again when you were sixteen, while rock climbing. Oh, and when you were twenty, you had to put all your work aside and rest at home for half a month because of your back injury, right?"
"So, Third Brother's back problem is an old one?" the little dumpling casually chimed in from the side.
Coco, who came with Su Yan, suddenly realized, "I know! I heard my grandfather say that if your back is bad, your kidneys are bad, your male function is bad, and your male function is like dribbling when you pee. Third brother, you need to take Liuwei Dihuang Pills!"
"My back is fine!" Su Yifan gritted his teeth.
As if possessed, Yu Dahuzi added insult to injury, "Actually, Huiyuan brand Shenbao tablets are not bad either!"
Su Yifan's face turned as black as could be, and his eyes were filled with a dangerous glint as he looked at Yu Dahuzi. "You've tried it?"
Yu the Bearded Man waved his hands repeatedly, "Cough cough...no, no, why would I need that thing?"
It was rare for Su Yan to be so assertive in front of Su Yifan, so he naturally stood on Yu Da Hu Zi's side. "Su Yifan, your back is bad, it's an illness, it needs treatment. Coco and Da Hu Zi recommended medicine to you because they're doing it for your own good. Don't take their kindness for granted!"
"Mmm!" Coco nodded in agreement. "Yes, yes, Third Brother needs to take medicine when he's sick. Even though you pee a little, we won't laugh at you!"
Su Yifan gritted his teeth in hatred as he looked at Su Yan. When they got back, he would make that brat beg for mercy on his knees. Damn it, he talked nonsense on the live broadcast and ruined his image!
This is a matter of a man's dignity, and the worst part is that this lousy show is being broadcast live!
What was originally a heart-wrenching accident was successfully turned into a comedic moment because of the brothers' conversation.
I'm sorry, please forgive me for laughing out loud at such a serious and sad moment.
Although it was quite unpleasant, I still laughed.
What are the production team doing? Why haven't they taken my husband to the hospital yet? They've ruined my happiness for the rest of my life. Can you take responsibility for that?
[Is my tech-savvy husband's back really that fragile? But honey, it's okay. Even if you didn't have a back, I wouldn't mind. Even if you only peed a little, I still wouldn't mind.]
[To the people upstairs: Please have some shame! That's my husband, thank you!]
...
While everyone in the live chat was laughing and vying for his attention, Su Yifan had already been carried back to that dilapidated thatched hut. After a brief examination by the village's barefoot doctor and the insertion of steel plates, Su Yan and Yu Dahuzi worked together to move him onto the bed.
The little dumpling stayed by his bedside, its big, bright eyes brimming with tears that occasionally rolled down its chubby, pink cheeks.
Su Yifan lay on the bed, frantically wiping away the little girl's tears, and said with a pained expression, "Little sister, don't cry. When you're like this, I'll think I've not just twisted my back, but have some kind of terminal illness!"
The little girl sobbed, her voice filled with self-reproach, "Third brother, I'm sorry, it's all Ruanruan's fault. You're clearly afraid of cows, yet Ruanruan still dragged you to the cowshed. Ruanruan was so inconsiderate!"
The little dumpling became more and more upset as she talked, and tears streamed down her face.
She genuinely regretted it.
She has been holding a grudge because her third brother didn't believe her and put her on a lie detector test for paternity. She has been teasing her third brother for the past two days.
But when the bull suddenly went berserk and attacked them, the third brother didn't hesitate and completely protected her in his arms.
They were thrown so far by the bull, and she didn't even get a scratch, but her third brother...
"Hey! It's no big deal!" Su Yifan kept wiping away the little dumpling's tears. "It's just that a cow gored me. You watch, once my back injury heals, I'll give you a performance of punching the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicking the Beihai Kindergarten."
The little dumpling finally stopped crying and smiled, patting her little chest and promising, "Okay, then during Third Brother's recovery period, I will definitely take care of Third Brother's bodily functions and provide him with the best service!"
Because Su Yifan was injured, the task originally scheduled for the afternoon for Xiaotuanzi's group had to be cancelled.
At dinner time, Xiao Tuanzi, carrying a large basket provided by the program crew, huffed and puffed as she walked towards the village chief's house.
She hadn't gone far from her house when she saw Gu Chen waiting for her with a basket in his hand.
Her large, sparkling eyes instantly brightened, and she trotted over on her short legs, calling out, "Brother Gu Chen—"
