Chapter 89: The Farmer's Spring Has a Little Field

Su Zhi glanced at Zhao Yang and thought that Zhao Xiaomei's mother didn't take her daughter seriously. When she was a child, she was sent to a nunnery because she heard from others that she had a bad luck. After she finally returned home, she was thrown to the Shen family like a burden when she saw that she was sick. Now when her family got into trouble, they pushed the blame on her. She really lost her desire to be filial to them on behalf of Zhao Xiaomei!

"Stop talking!"

When Shen Zian first heard his father blaming his wife, he felt sorry for her. This matter was obviously Lianhua's fault, and Ziju was also responsible. It had nothing to do with Su Zhi. Why did he blame his wife? And it was when his wife had just forgiven her sister Shen Zhu's rudeness. When he heard Zhao Yang's words, he also became angry. He thought that his father blamed his wife because she was not his child, but his mother-in-law was his mother. How could he treat her like this? He couldn't help but explode.

Everyone was frightened by Shen Zian's low shout and looked at him.

Shen Zian said with a serious face: "Everyone is wrong in today's incident. We didn't close the door properly, which is our fault. Lianhua threw stones randomly, which is her fault. Ziju came in without knocking on the door, which is his fault. Since everyone is wrong, let's share the matter!"

Seeing that Shen Zian was really angry, Shen Ziju said, "I am indeed wrong about what happened today. I knocked on the door, but I didn't expect it to open. I saw that the door was open, so I wanted to go inside and knock on the gate again, but it turned out like this. I am indeed wrong. Let's do whatever Fourth Brother says!"

"Let's do whatever Aunt says."

Old man Zhao finally spoke up, but Zhao Yang glared at him, and his son and daughter-in-law were not very happy. They didn't want to take responsibility at all. In the end, they just said they had no money and let Shen Zian and Su Zhi take care of it. They couldn't take their lives!

Shen Zian said in a deep voice: "Zi Ju must eat well during his recovery and have someone to take care of him. This will be paid for by you, Dad and Mom. Thank you for your hard work. As for his medical expenses, we and my father-in-law will pay for it."

Zhang immediately said, "Brother-in-law, before this happened, we said we had no money. You know we are poor. I can't even afford to buy a piece of meat for the baby in my belly, so where can I get money to pay for the medicine? Brother-in-law, please help us and pay for it!"

Zhao Yuanbao also said: "Yes, yes, you are my brother-in-law, a son-in-law is half a son, you are half a son of our Zhao family. Just pay for us, and I, big brother, would like to thank you on behalf of your unborn nephew."

Shen Zian looked at them and was about to speak when Su Zhi said, "Okay, Dad and Mom. Big brother and sister-in-law, we will pay for your share of the money, but as we said just now, we are also out of money. We will probably be busy making money. Then we will have no money to honor you. We will not go back for the New Year this year. We will give the money for buying you New Year gifts to our fifth brother. When Zi Ju's injury is healed, we will bring gifts to see you. Dad, Mom, you have to understand."

The Zhao family looked at each other in astonishment, wondering if Su Zhi had just given them the money to pay off the debt? She even said she had paid it off for them. What was going on?

"That's settled."

Old man Zhao said this again, which was considered as accepting the result for the Zhao family.

Shen Youfu said, "You talk about it lightly. How much medical money can cure Ziju's injuries? Let me tell you, if he has a scar on his head, you can treat it for one day if the scar doesn't go away! If his career is affected by the scar, you can spend money to buy it back for him! It's a big deal for our Shen family to bring honor to the family!"

Su Zhi is very upset now. Her parents' family and her husband's family are all extreme. They have turned their peaceful life into a mess. She doesn't want to be entangled with them because of a scar on Shen Ziju's head. After finally separating, will she have to pay for all their affairs in the future? She doesn't want this! But as long as Shen Ziju has a scar on his face, they are destined to take responsibility. Even if they say it's not their fault, they can't stand the rumors of others. Su Zhi can imagine the scene of such a result, and she frowns when she thinks of it.

The best result now is that Shen Ziju no longer has that scar on his face!

Doctor Huang said that Shen Ziju might have a scar on his face, but Su Zhi thought that she might be able to avoid the scar!

Su Zhi had the Lingquan White Lotus in her hand. Lingquan has miraculous effects on plants, and lotus has miraculous effects on people. Wasn't her illness cured by the lotus stamens? She saw with her own eyes that the wound that had been rubbed with lotus pollen healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, without even a scar left. Later, she used a deep wound on a wild rabbit hunted by Shen Zian as an experiment, and it healed as well.

"Dad, when I was out there, I learned some medical skills. Even though they were only superficial, they were still useful. I cured all my illnesses by myself. Let me treat Zi Ju, too!"

Su Zhi told Shen Youfu that she was thinking of buying some herbs and adding a little lotus pollen to them to make powder, and then giving it to Shen Ziju. As long as the right mixture was prepared, he would not recover too quickly and his injury would be cured. That would be all good! Su Zhi thought that Shen Zian knew that she could prescribe medicine anyway, so it was not surprising that she could treat injuries. She also knew a little about Chinese medicine. She liked to cook, and medicinal food was one of them. Learning to cook medicinal food would naturally help her learn some of this knowledge.

As soon as Su Zhi said this, everyone looked at her again.

Zhao Yang was surprised and said, "Didn't you say you forgot something? How come you still remember this?!"

Su Zhi said helplessly: "I still remember how to cook, embroider, and read, but why can't I remember some prescriptions? I only remember these, and I haven't remembered some of them yet."

Zhao Yang said sarcastically, "It's okay if you don't remember it. It's okay. Anyway, you haven't done anything remarkable since you were a child. If you don't remember it, just forget it."

Zhao Yang interrupted them, and everyone's surprise subsided. Seeing Su Zhi's face, which looked much better than yesterday, they began to believe it. After all, Su Zhi's example was there. Even Doctor Huang and the doctors in the town said that the disease could not be cured, but now it was cured. Moreover, Su Zhi had been to a nunnery, so it was possible that there was a capable person in the temple. Maybe Su Zhi met such a capable person and learned some skills from him.

Shen Youfu asked: "Do you really have a way to cure Ziju? Are you kidding me?"

Su Zhi said, "Dad, why would I lie to you? If I lie to you and your fifth brother's injury doesn't heal, what good will that do me? If you don't believe me, ask Zi'an. He was the one who got me the medicine."

Shen Zian nodded and said, "I took the medicine. The prescription was written by my wife."

Although he didn't like Shen Zian, Shen Youfu knew that Shen Zian would never tell a lie, so he believed him 80% of the time. The other 20% was because he doubted that Su Zhi cured her own illness but might not be able to cure Shen Ziju's wound.

Shen Ziju, however, would try no matter how sure he was. He didn't want to have a big scar on his face. He was handsome, and although he didn't care much about his face in the past, he now understood that if he had a scar on his face, it would have an impact on his future. So as long as there was a chance to remove the scar, he would try.

"Fourth sister-in-law, if you have any ideas, just try it. I will definitely cooperate."

Shen Zhang also said: "Zi'an's wife, please write a prescription for Zi Ju. If you are not sure, you can ask Doctor Huang to take a look!"

Su Zhi said, "The one who taught me medicine was an unknown master. He didn't teach me much. They were all for common minor illnesses, with only a few important prescriptions that cannot be passed on to others. If you believe in me, then give it a try. If not, forget it."

"Of course I believe Fourth Sister-in-law, just prepare the medicine!"

Shen Ziju said immediately that he was looking at Su Zhi's face which had returned to its normal complexion, and thought that she must have this ability. This fourth sister-in-law was a smart person, and she would not just say big words to bluff people.

"Well, I'll go buy the medicine with Zi'an this afternoon, and I'll give it to you, my fourth brother, once it's ready."

Su Zhi settled the matter, and then sent Shen Youfu away. After returning, she looked at the Zhao family sitting at the table and eating and drinking. She thought to herself that she should have less contact with them in the future. They always cause trouble when they meet. This time, she could use the gift money as an excuse to visit them less often. She was waiting to find a way to use the spring water white lotus to lure the Bailang family to guard the house, so that she would not be afraid of these extreme people disturbing her life.

"Nizi, please live well. I am sorry for being a burden to you."

Old man Zhao said this before he left, but Zhao Yang interrupted him and muttered something about whether she was a burden to her own daughter.

Su Zhi pretended not to hear. She believed that Zhao Xiaomei's father still had some conscience, but his conscience was too weak and he still failed to protect his daughter. She just hoped that he would stop causing trouble for her. Although she felt sorry for Zhao Xiaomei's death, she still fulfilled her duty.

In the afternoon, Su Zhi and Shen Zian took a ox cart to the town, bought some herbs and tools for making herbs at the herbal medicine shop, and then went home.

Su Zhi started working on it alone and soon made a bag of medicine powder.

Shen Zian and Su Zhi went to the old house together and handed the medicine powder to Shen Ziju, telling him that this was a five-day supply. Just mix it with water to make a paste and apply it on the wound, then cover it with a cloth and change it every morning and evening. Wait five days to see how the wound is, and then decide whether to continue using the medicine.

Shen Ziju nodded in agreement, and Shen Zhang immediately prepared the medicine for him. He felt a cool and comfortable sensation on the wound, and immediately gained more confidence in the medicine.
