Chapter 140 - 140: Knocking on Her Door

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although there were not many people in the village at this time, some people ended work early. When they saw Su Ze and Yao Jun carrying a person across the village, their gazes began to change. They wished they could pounce on them and ask.

“Su Ze, what’s wrong with Shi Haishan? Why are the both of you carrying him?”

“That’s right! His face is so pale. Did you kill him?”

When the people at the side heard this, they looked at Su Ze and Yao Jun unhappily and prepared to criticize them.

Yao Jun was not someone to be trifled with. When he saw these people’s blaming gazes, he cursed.

“How can your imagination be so wild? Have you ever seen a dead person breathe? If you don’t know the truth, don’t say it. Do you believe that I’ll sew your mouths shut?”

He glared at those people again. “What are you looking at? Haven’t you seen others playing games? If you continue looking, I’ll poke your eyes and make them blind. If you think he’s dead, quickly report it to the officials. If he’s not dead, the officials can arrest you people who cause trouble later.”

After Yao Jun’s loud shouting, everyone did not want to cause trouble, so they shut up.

If they really died, they would definitely report it to the authorities and arrest the two of them. Let’s see how they could still be smug.

Yao Jun continued to curse, “You don’t do proper work all day long and always talk about useless gossip. Don’t do those immoral things and accumulate some blessings for your descendants.”

“Can’t you guys learn from me? I’ve been accumulating good deeds.” Su Ze glanced at him. Wasn’t he afraid of biting his tongue?

“Alright, let’s go!” Su Ze said.

The people in the field should be back soon. He did not want to be surrounded again.

Before Su Jidong and Jiao Yuying reached home, they heard that Su Ze and Yao Jun were carrying Shi Haishan around the village. The villagers even said that Su Ze and Yao Jun had beaten him half to death.

Su Jidong and Jiao Yuying were scared half to death by these words. In the end, they rushed home angrily and chased after Su Ze the moment they reached home.

Su Ze was confused. He had no idea what he had done wrong.

“Sister, save me!” Su Ze shouted for help into the house.

The moment Su Li came out, she saw Su Ze being chased by Su Jidong with a broom.

“Father, let’s talk nicely.”

Jiao Yuying said, “Don’t worry about them. Su Ze needs to be taught a lesson.” “What’s wrong?” Su Li didn’t understand. Did Su Ze do something bad again?

Jiao Yuying began to tell Su Li about Su Ze carrying Shi Haishan today and told her what the villagers had said.

Su Li laughed when she heard what Jiao Yuying said. She had thought that it was something important, but it turned out to be about this!

Su Li explained the ins and outs to them. Of course, she skipped the part where she asked Yao Jun to sign the indenture contract.

When Su Jidong and Jiao Yuying heard that Su Li performed surgery on Shi Haishan, they were extremely afraid. Their daughter was really bold. What if her medical skills were not good or something happened along the way? What if he died from the treatment?

Although the Shi family did not care about Shi Haishan, it was different if he died. Wouldn’t those people extort her daughter?

Jiao Yuying said worriedly, “Daughter, don’t do such things in the future. If anything happens, we won’t be able to bear the responsibility!”

Su Jidong nodded in agreement. “That’s right. It’s best if we don’t get involved with such a person. Otherwise, we won’t be able to explain ourselves in the future.’

Su Li understood their worries and nodded. “Father, Mother, don’t worry. I know what to do.”

She would not do anything that she was not confident in.

Jiao Yuying opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Su Jidong glanced at her and motioned for her to stop.

The child was no longer the little one who needed their protection like the times when she was young. They had their own judgment and thoughts. As elders, it was best if their children listened to their opinions. There was nothing the elders could do if their children didn’t!

It was meaningless to say too much. Instead, it was annoying.

Jiao Yuying sighed and went back to work. If he didn’t want her to say it, then so be it! No one would listen anyway.

Su Li looked at Su Jidong and said, “Father, my mother…”

Su Jidong said, “It’s fine. Don’t worry about her. She’ll be fine in a while!”

The next day, Su Li was tidying up the house when a few strangers entered.

Riceball saw that the person and started to bark, revealing his newly grown baby teeth, looking like he was protecting his master.

He Qingyao and He Qingmu looked at the newcomer. They did not know these people, but this was the Su Family Village, so it was normal that they did not know them.

He Qingmu touched Riceball to signal it to be quiet.

Zeng Qing noticed Riceball. When he saw the thing on Riceball’s neck, he was instantly excited.

It seemed that they had indeed found the right place this time. The token was in their hands.

However, is it really good to hang the the thing that Ling family was crazily snatching on a dog’s neck?

Riceball looked at them staring as his neck constantly and wondered if they were thinking of eating his meat.

Thinking of this, Riceball looked at Zeng Qing even more with increased unfriendliness.

Zeng Qing’s butler also discovered the thing on Riceball’s neck. He walked over excitedly, and Riceball let out a warning cry.

The old butler pulled out a smile that he thought was very friendly and said,

“Little kid, can I see the thing on your dog’s neck?”

When He Qingyao and He Qingmu heard this, they immediately looked at them warily. So these people had taken a fancy to Riceball’s thing. That wouldn’t do. Riceball liked that thing the most.

He Qingmu refused, “No, that’s its thing. It won’t let anyone touch it.”

He also liked that small bronze plate, but this thing was found by Riceball, so he wouldn’t snatch it from Riceball and others couldn’t too!

He Qingyao looked at them and asked warily, “What’s the matter?”

Zeng Qing opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, He Qingmu shouted into the house, “Mother, Uncle, there’s a stranger at home. Come out quickly. I’m scared.”

Zeng Qing was speechless.

He clearly looked kind. What was there to be afraid of?

Su Ze walked out first. When he saw Zeng Qing and the others, he couldn’t help but frown. These people were strangers, and the way the person was dressed showed that they weren’t people who lived nearby.

Su Ze first shielded the two children behind him and asked warily, “What’s the matter?”

“I was passing by and wanted to ask for a bowl of water.” Zeng Qing said.

“Is that so?” Su Li leaned against the door and asked with a faint smile.

She recognized this old man. It was the old man she had saved last time.

When Zeng Qing saw Su Li, he was very sure that she was the person who had saved him.

After interrogating Wang Jinxue last time, he even sent someone to investigate Su Li and realized that she knew some medical skills. Moreover, the thing on the dog’s neck just now had already explained everything.

Zeng Qing looked at Su Li and smiled. “Hello, Madam Su. We finally meet.”

Su Li was not surprised that Zeng Qing could call out her surname. After all, he had already found this place. He must have investigated everything in advance. Otherwise, he would have gone to the He Family Village and not the Su Family Village..
