Perhaps the herbs had indeed worked, because Yun Zhaodi's mouth had stopped bleeding. Or perhaps she was about to deal with Yunxi, which made her feel that dealing with Yunxi was a more pleasant thing than applying the medicine, so she didn't feel any pain anymore, and she didn't even cry now.
Fortunately, Yunxi was about five or six meters away from where she was, so no matter what, she couldn't wrongly accuse herself.
Grandma Huang turned her head and glanced at Yunxi standing in the distance. Her face was dirty, but you could still tell that she was indeed beautiful.
With that obedient demeanor, she simply couldn't believe that Yunxi had pushed Zhaodi along.
So he asked in a gentle tone, "Yunxi, could you tell Grandma Huang what exactly happened?"
When Yun Zhaodi heard that Grandma Hua didn't believe her and wanted to ask that bitch Yunxi, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth and stared at Yunxi with venomous eyes, like a poisonous snake.
An ordinary young girl might have been frightened by her gaze, but Yunxi was a peach tree spirit who had lived for over a thousand years. She had seen many real poisonous snakes, some of which had even crawled onto her body. She wasn't afraid of her vicious gaze at all.
Seeing Grandma Huang looking at her encouragingly, Yunxi had nothing to hide. "Grandma Huang, it wasn't Yunxi who pushed Zhaodi."
She didn't push her; she just tripped her with a vine.
Grandma Huang noticed that Yunxi looked very nervous. Knowing that she was always so honest, she quickly nodded to her, signaling her not to be so afraid and to speak slowly.
"You're the one who pushed me. Don't try to deny it. When you get back, I'll definitely have my grandma come after you."
Seeing how kind Grandma Huang was to Yunxi, Yun Zhaodi instantly felt uneasy, so before Yunxi could even finish speaking, she couldn't wait to threaten her.
Yunxi really disliked this little girl; she was so vicious at such a young age.
No one could stop her from saying what she wanted to say, so she pretended not to hear and said it directly.
“Grandma Huang, Zhaodi just said she felt sorry for me, that I would have no parents or grandparents and would have to live alone. I felt very sad after hearing what she said, so I ignored her and kept walking. I didn’t expect to suddenly hear her fall to the ground. I was angry with her, and I didn’t go over to her when she fell. Although I know that as a fellow villager I shouldn’t do that, I was too angry. It wasn’t intentional. I really didn’t push her. She just fell by accident.”
Grandma Huang still trusted Yunxi a lot because the child had been well-behaved since childhood and didn't seem like the kind of person who would lie.
Adding to that, Yunxi's words instantly ignited a fire in my heart. I don't know how her parents raised her, letting her say such vicious things at such a young age, deliberately poking at people's hearts. She is so ill-mannered.
However, she wouldn't be so arbitrary as to directly favor Yunxi.
Looking at the footprints on the ground, and then at Yun Zhaodi's footprints, it was clear that Zhaodi's footprints showed that she had lost her footing and fallen down.
Grandma Huang didn't say it directly, but instead planned to give her a gentle nudge, suggesting that girls don't need to be so competitive.
“Zhao Di, look at your footprints. It rained a couple of days ago, and the ground is still a bit damp. Your footprints are clearly visible. After you’ve seen your footprints, then you can tell me who pushed you.”
Grandma Huang, having lived for so many years, could tell at a glance that the young girl's little thoughts were very shallow, and anyone with a little experience could guess what she was thinking.
It's just because of jealousy.
Yun Zhaodi was extremely flustered. She looked at the footprints on the ground, then at Yunxi's footprints. Her face, which was already pale from blood loss, turned even paler.
They were speechless for a moment.
Grandma Huang didn't want to scold her too much, as long as she knew she was wrong.
“Zhao Di, apologize to Yun Xi, and then hurry back to your fourth grandfather’s place. Let him take a good look at you. Zhao Di is a beautiful girl, and we can’t let her have a scar.”
Grandma Huang is quite adept at using the skill of giving a slap followed by a reward.
Originally, Yun Zhaodi was stubborn and absolutely refused to apologize, but when she heard that it would leave a scar, she was instantly terrified.
She apologized to Yunxi in a very soft voice, not caring whether others could hear her or not. Without waiting for Yunxi's reply, she quickly carried her basket and went down the mountain with her younger sister.
Yunxi felt that her wound was quite deep and would probably leave a scar. Of course, if she applied some medicinal essence to it, she could remove the scar.
But she was unwilling to treat her. That wicked little woman, let her have a scar.
In the peach tree spirit's mind, she was still such a small child, a little woman.
The other children all witnessed what had just happened, and as soon as Yun Zhaodi left, they started babbling incessantly.
With no more shows to watch, everyone scattered in a panic.
By the time they finish work and go back for lunch, the whole village will probably be buzzing with the news that Yun Zhaodi is useless, fell down and then framed someone else, and after being exposed, she'll be too ashamed to face anyone.
It's clear that the two Yun sisters are disliked by everyone, including their two younger sisters.
Yunxi was a little nervous just now, but fortunately she had thousands of years of experience as a peach tree, and no amount of wind or rain could move her in the slightest.
As long as you keep a straight face and don't let anyone see what you're thinking, that's fine.
After Grandma Huang and the others came up, they saw Yunxi standing to the side. "Yunxi, don't mind what happened just now. We're all from the same village, and we'll see each other all the time. As long as Zhaodi admits his mistake, that's fine."
For the older generation, their thinking is understandable. They believe in avoiding trouble and that no matter how fierce the fighting gets, they will reconcile after a while, without much hatred.
Yunxi didn't take Yun Zhaodi seriously at all, so no matter what Grandma Huang said, she just nodded and didn't say anything.
Grandma Huang assumed that she was still recovering from the loss of her loved ones, so she didn't think much of it.
Yunxi nodded to Grandma Huang as a greeting, and then continued walking upstairs.
Yunxi suddenly felt that being a person was quite difficult. She hadn't offended her at all, yet the other woman had attacked her for no reason.
