Nodding his head, Sun Ming replied, “Physician Su, don’t worry. I will make sure that they won’t be able to come out for the rest of their lives!”

These people were too despicable. If he did not vent his anger, he would not be happy for the next half a year.

In any case, his master had some connections with the government. In addition, these people often did evil things, so the government was still willing to use them to make meritorious contributions.

Su Li nodded slightly. Handing this matter to Sun Ming was equivalent to handing it to the Sun family. She didn’t have to worry about encountering that group of people again.

The carriage set off again. Fortunately, the rest of the journey was very smooth and there were no more obstacles faced.

At the entrance of the village, two little people and a dog were waiting for Su Li’s return.

He Qingmu squatted on the ground and drew circles. He muttered, “Brother, will Mother come back?”

He had drawn many circles. Why wasn’t his mother back yet?

He Qingyao said with certainty, “If Mother says she’ll come back, she’ll definitely come back!”

He believed in his mother, so when she said that she would come back, she would definitely come back, just like the last time she promised to help find his father.

He Qingyao exhaled and wrote the word “He” on the ground with a branch.

When Riceball saw that he had finished writing, it used its chubby dog paws to scratch it. The word that was originally fine could not be seen after it was scratched twice.

Under Su Li’s feeding, Riceball, who was originally a thin and weak puppy, became a cute and chubby puppy.

He Qingyao patted Riceball gently. “Riceball, you’re messing around again. How many times have I told you not to mess with my words!”

Every time, whether he was writing or drawing on the ground, Riceball would always come and cause trouble.

On the other hand, Riceball would always carefully avoid the circles that He Qingmu drew on the ground, afraid that it would damage the circles that He Qingmu drew.

He Qingyao felt that Riceball must be a puppy that did not like to learn. Otherwise, why would he treat him differently?!

After Riceball made trouble, he shook his head and wagged his tail at He Qingyao with all his might. His face was filled with flattery, as if the dog who made trouble just now was not him!

He Qingyao stared at Riceball and said sternly, “If you cause trouble again, I’ll punish you to write!”

Riceball: Writing? Never in my life!

Riceball rubbed against He Qingyao’s feet and lay on the ground, exposing its belly. It looked like it was asking for a caress.

He Qingyao puffed up his cheeks and said, “I won’t touch you, you aren’t obedient today!”

He Qingmu came over with a smile and waved at Riceball. “Riceball, come over to me!”

Riceball glanced at He Qingyao, then quickly turned around and ran to He Qingmu to act cute.

He Qingyao was speechless. He was abandoned just like that?

There were still many people gathered under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village. Everyone was sharing the latest gossip they knew.

People were very curious about He Qingyao and He Qingmu. In the past, He Qingyao and He Qingmu rarely came to the village. Every time, they would lower their heads and they looked so thin and weak. They were so fair and chubby and likable!

A fat woman asked, “Those two children are really good-looking. Are they He Yufeng’s children?”

The insider glanced at He Qingyao and his brother and said, “Who else in the village gave birth to twins other than his family?”

The two children looked exactly the same. It was obvious that they belonged to He Yufeng’s family.

“I have to say that he’s really lucky in this aspect. Others want to give birth but can’t and he got two at once. Don’t you think it’s infuriating?”

“That’s right! Tiezhu’s wife’s stomach isn’t good at all. She gave birth to four daughters in a row, which angered her mother-in-law.”

“Aiyo, I heard that she’s pregnant again. Her mother-in-law goes to pray to God and Buddha every day just to give birth to a son. But when I look at her stomach, I feel like it looks like a daughter!”

Tiezhu’s mother happened to pass by. When she heard this, her face instantly darkened.

“Stop talking!!” Someone saw Tiezhu’s mother coming and everyone immediately stopped talking.

Everyone immediately changed the topic.

The fat woman saw that Riceball was quite cute and smiled. “Not to mention that the people have gained weight, even their dogs have gained weight. This is really rare!”

“That’s right. I heard that Mother of Dahu has been making a living recently and earned some money. Even the village chief’s wife has gone to work for her!”

“Really? Is there a need to hire someone to make a living?”

“I don’t know exactly what it is, but it should be true that she’s earning money.”

Auntie Li was gossiping with someone else. When she heard someone say that Su Li was good, she was instantly unhappy.

If someone badmouthed Su Li, she would raise her hands and feet in agreement. But now, someone was saying good things about Su Li!!

Ever since she had a conflict with Su Li, she had been holding a grudge. She had heard that Father Su was an upright person. If he knew that his daughter disrespected her in-laws, he might come over personally to teach her a lesson.

She had a relative who happened to be in the same village as Su Li. When they were at the market last time, she exaggerated what Su Li had done.

Her relatives patted their chests and promised her that they would definitely tell her family about the bad things Su Li had done.

Because of this, she was even smug for a few days, thinking that Su Li would definitely be scolded by Father Su. After all, it was the fault of the father to not raise her well. Although a married woman was like water that had been splashed out, her surname was still Su, right?

Unexpectedly, her family was indifferent and even reprimanded the person who sent the message. This made her furious. The Su family was indeed a nest of snakes and rats.

“If she can’t pay their salaries, let’s see who they can cry to. She doesn’t have any other skills, but she’s good at fooling people. I think they’ve all been bewitched by her.”

The fat woman was unhappy when she heard that, so she started arguing with Auntie Li. “Why are you talking so strangely? If we’re being honest, how did we offend you? If you don’t like to listen, go away.”

“What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to let others talk about it? You’re starting to protect her now. What’s your relationship with He Yufeng? Could it be that you’re a couple with him? Otherwise, why would you be so protective of his wife?”

When the fat woman heard this, she was so angry that she almost smoked. She placed her hands on her hips and pointed at Auntie Li. “You old hag, see if I don’t tear your smelly mouth apart. Who asked you to spout nonsense!”

Auntie Li shouted, “Come on, come on, who isn’t afraid!”

Seeing that the two of them were about to fight over this matter, the people at the side hurriedly came out to stop the fight.

“Alright, alright! Everyone is just sharing a few words. Is there a need to do

“Yes!” The two of them said at the same time.

Under everyone’s persuasion, the fat woman and Auntie Li stopped fighting. They looked at each other in disdain and left after spitting at each other.

When Auntie Li passed by Riceball, he was playing with the foxtail grass..
