If Li Dadi gets upset and causes villagers to gossip about her, she can't do anything about it.
She was used to being domineering in controlling the family, but after she got married, her authority was challenged.
Of course there will be a fuss.
The more trouble there was, the more Song Bao sided with his wife.
Xu Zhiyi listened to the whole process from the side, and felt that Su Qiuhe's good temper did not mean that she was a coward who would swallow her anger.
It's just that she manages things well and doesn't let people see that she and her mother-in-law are not on good terms. Instead, she always plays the weaker party and diverts conflicts.
Although Li Dadi had always been targeting her, Su Qiuhe had never confronted her head-on, and her reputation was pretty good.
Not only did she not suffer any injustice, but Li Dadi was always at a disadvantage.
This is where Su Qiuhe's cleverness lies.
Xu Zhiyi was really curious about Su Qiuhe, and soon she met her in person.
It was in Chu Jueming's clinic, and the sarcastic voice of a woman could be heard before entering the yard.
"It's because of you, little bitch, you had bad intentions that I fell. Get out of here." Li Dadi's shouting and cursing voice came from the room.
He sounded full of energy and didn't look like he was injured.
"Mom, don't be angry, or you'll get sick. We usually pour water, but we didn't expect you to be so careless and fall down while stepping on the water."
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have poured water there."
Almost every household in the village has a yard, and the water used for washing vegetables and cooking is basically poured directly into the yard.
Who knew that Li Dadi was so unlucky. She wanted to go to the kitchen to supervise Su Qiuhe cooking, but she stepped on the wet ground and fell down.
He fell so hard that he couldn't stand up.
Su Qiuhe wanted to help her, but she cried out in pain.
Song Mu found a board and he and Song Bao carried his wife to the clinic.
Along the way, Li Dadi wailed and cursed Su Qiuhe.
Su Qiuhe followed beside him like a young wife, with a worried look on her face. Listening to Li Dadi's yelling and scolding, she felt wronged and scared.
After the examination, Chu Jueming found out that he had injured his waist and would have to stay at home for a month or so.
Chu Jueming made some ointment and asked the Song family to take it back. They should change it once a day and apply it for seven days. They could stop applying it when the pain stopped.
Chu Jueming asked the Song family to carry Li Dadi back. It would take some time for him to prepare the ointment. Song Bao asked Su Qiuhe to stay and get the ointment, and the two of them carried Li Dadi back.
"It's finally quiet." Chu Jueming breathed a sigh of relief.
When that person came, he was restless. He either cursed or cried out "ouch, ouch".
As soon as Chu Jueming said this, he remembered that the Song family's daughter-in-law was standing at the door. He felt a little annoyed that he spoke too quickly. He glanced at Su Qiuhe and saw that she didn't react at all, as if she didn't hear him. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Even Chu Jueming was afraid of another scoundrel like Li Dadi coming along.
Xu Zhiyi hung the herbs in the basket in the yard to dry. She had to go through a clear route to collect herbs for the clinic. After all, not everyone was like her, able to come and go freely in the mountains.
As long as Chu Jueming keeps records, Xu Zhiyi will be given work points every month based on the amount of herbs she collects.
Most people in the village know that Chu Jueming has some medical skills. Now no one goes to see Old Man Niu for treatment. Everyone comes to Chu Jueming for any illness, whether it is big or small.
Old Man Niu was very angry about this and couldn't make any money. He looked at this place with a sinister look outside the clinic several times.
Chu Jueming had caught him twice, but he didn't say anything or fight. He was wary of this and mentioned it to Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi noticed this person, but he didn't know if he had any tricks up his sleeve.
When Xu Zhiyi met Su Qiuhe for the first time, she was wearing clothes that were obviously old, and her hair was mostly dry and yellow. She didn't look very old.
Xu Zhiyi's first impression of her was that she was thin.
The clothes on his body were a little white from washing, and they were indeed clean and tidy. His thin body looked as if a gust of wind would blow him down.
Her face was a little sallow, but her eyes were clear and her features were pretty. If it weren't for her thinness and old clothes, she really didn't look like a country girl.
Seeing Xu Zhiyi looking over, Su Qiuhe met her gaze, and Xu Zhiyi nodded slightly at her.
Su Qiuhe seemed a little at a loss. She didn't expect that the educated youth from the city would actually greet her.
She subconsciously looked away, pinching the corner of her clothes in her hand.
Xu Zhiyi didn't care. She walked straight in and said, "Doctor Chu, these are the herbs I picked outside. Please register them."
When there were outsiders present, Xu Zhiyi and his disciples treated him as just a villager and spoke and acted as if they were not familiar with each other.
Chu Jueming was making ointment, so he looked up at Xu Zhiyi and nodded.
Xu Zhiyi was still standing in the room, seemingly with no intention of leaving, and didn't say anything.
Su Qiuhe was waiting outside the house. When she saw Xu Zhiyi come in, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The female educated youth in her village were not only unable to work, but were also spoiled and often fell ill. They looked down on the villagers. Su Qiuhe once passed by and was ridiculed by the female educated youth and her companions.
She heard it, but she said nothing.
But I don't have a good impression of these people from the city who wear beautiful new clothes, always act superior, look down on the country people, but want to eat the food grown by the country people.
Su Qiuhe's thoughts were a little far away, and she didn't even hear Chu Jueming calling her to get the ointment.
"Take this home and apply it once a day. Wrap it with a cloth and let your mother-in-law stay at home for a while, otherwise she will develop chronic illnesses as she ages."
Chu Jueming explained everything clearly, and Su Qiuhe nodded.
Then her face flushed again, "Doctor Chu, I don't have any money. I'll go back and ask my mother-in-law for some money, and then I'll bring it to you, okay?"
"Yeah." Chu Jueming nodded.
He keeps good records because the money is earned for the village. If he doesn't get it back, someone will naturally ask for payment during the New Year.
Su Qiuhe took the medicine bag and turned to leave.
It was only after I walked out of the yard that I vaguely heard Chu Jueming and Xu Zhiyi talking.
Maybe he was feeling unwell and came to see a doctor. Su Qiuhe didn't think much about it.
There is no one on the road at this moment. I guess they have all gone to work.
Because of Li Dadi's fall, no one had time to eat. Su Qiuhe's hand holding the medicine bag was shaking a little, and one of the medicine bags fell to the ground.
Su Qiuhe bent down to pick it up, but when she got up, she was too strong. Her vision went dark, the world was spinning, and she fell to the ground with her head heavy.
Xu Zhiyi came out of the clinic and on his way back, he found Su Qiuhe fainted on the ground.
Xu Zhiyi ran over to check on her condition, which was not serious. Xu Zhiyi did not want to go to the messy Song family, so he sent Su Qiuhe back to the clinic.
"What did you do to her?" Chu Jueming saw the two of them going back one after the other, and one of them fainted when they came back.
Xu Zhiyi held the frail Su Qiuhe in his arms and walked all the way without even breathing heavily.
