Luo Fengtang led President Wang and three others to the next door room to prescribe medicine. Xiaohua also went to listen to some follow-up care matters.
Of course, Yang Ruoqing gave special instructions to Xiaohua and asked Dr. Liu and the others to apply some medicine to relieve the pain and reduce the swelling.
Yang Ruoqing and Daan were the only two siblings left in the room.
Yang Ruoqing said to Daan: "You can save your life this time. If your parents find out about this, they will be afraid of death."
Daan smiled bitterly, "Sister, don't tell your parents."
Yang Ruoqing said: "Do you think you can hide this matter? Not to mention your face is as white as paper, just Hua'er's face, unless our parents are blind!"
Daan looked ashamed and whispered: "It's all my fault. I'm useless and can't protect Xiaohua."
A dignified man accompanied his daughter-in-law back to her parents' home, but unexpectedly, she was slapped by her father-in-law. This was really a dereliction of duty as a husband!
Seeing Da'an's guilty look, Yang Ruoqing quickly comforted him and said, "It's not your fault. You yourself were drunk and passed out by that bitch Xu Dakui. If you were sober, give him a hundred courages." I don’t dare to bully our little flower.”
Da'an frowned: "After all, it's my intoxication that makes Xiao Hua suffer such injustice and makes you worried..."
Yang Ruoqing said: "Since everything has happened, there is no point in talking about it. The most important thing now is that you take good care of yourself. The Chinese New Year will be the day after tomorrow."
"What about the parents..." Daan looked confused.
Yang Ruoqing gritted her teeth and said: "Paper can't wrap up the fire. It's better for us to tell the truth. When Xiaohua comes over later, I will ask her opinion. Should the Xu family continue to move around after returning the medicine..."
"Sister, there's no need to ask. If you kill me, I won't step foot into Xujia Village again!" Xiaohua's voice suddenly interrupted, and someone appeared at the door of the house.
Yang Ruoqing and Daan turned to look at Xiaohua.
Da'an was a little anxious and said: "Hua'er, please don't say that first. This incident happened because of me. I should tell them openly and honestly at the dinner table that I am too drunk. Your biological father and they were just overly enthusiastic and I couldn't resist it for a while. Stay, maybe, that’s how they treat guests!”
Indeed, this is the way many villagers treat their guests.
Barbaric persuasion to drink, because in their concept, if you go to someone else's house and fail to drink to your heart's content, then your visit as a guest is also a failure.
No matter how many dishes you prepare, the key lies in the word wine!
Xiaohua came to the bedside in three steps and said anxiously: "Brother Da'an, please stop saying good things to my biological father. I am not a child, I am already an adult, Feng'er's mother."
"This trip back to the Xu family, I saw it with my own eyes and felt their enthusiasm and sincerity!"
At this point, Xiaohua turned around and said to Yang Ruoqing: "Sister, I cried all night last night. It wasn't because my cheek hurt that I cried, but because I regretted myself."
"I really shouldn't have been dumbfounded by their kind words, a few tears from Lu, and a few bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes. I really believed that they had me in their hearts."
"Because of my stupidity and soft-heartedness, I almost killed brother Da'an, almost caused Feng'er to have no father, my parents had no son, and I myself lost my husband..."
"I never want to walk that road of Xu's house again in my life. If they still have the nerve to come looking for me in the future, I will drive them out with a broom without fear of others poking their backs!"
Hearing Xiaohua's clanking voice, Yang Ruoqing was filled with emotion.
"When it comes to acknowledging my relationship with the Xu family, I actually have a responsibility." Yang Ruoqing said.
"If I could have inspected Xu Dakui and the Lu family more, things like this would not have happened. This time, I really used my brother's life as a touchstone to detect the badness of Xu Dakui and the Lu family!"
"Da'an, Xiaohua, it's my sister's fault, and I feel very regretful about it!" Yang Ruoqing said, tears falling down.
Da'an was anxious, stretched out his delicate hands that had been holding pens all year round, and gently held Yang Ruoqing's hand.
"Sister, please don't say that. Aren't I doing well? Dr. Liu and the others also said before that I just had alcohol irritating my stomach. I need to eat something light in the past two days and drink the medicine he prescribed slowly. Conditioning,"
"As young as I am, in my early twenties, I am a ferocious and resilient age. You must not worry about me!"
Yang Ruoqing nodded, thinking how could she not be worried, you have never suffered this kind of crime since you were a child!
"Hua'er, what did Dr. Liu say about your face? Does it still hurt?" Da'an asked Xiao Hua'er again.
Da'an, who was so warm-hearted and considerate of others, not only made Yang Ruoqing feel distressed, but also made Xiaohua almost cry.
"Even if my face is ruined, I still deserve it!" Xiaohua said.
"Brother Da'an, you must be well. I saw you vomiting blood last night. I was really panicked and scared. I couldn't help but cry every day. I really don't know what to do..."
Daan smiled gently at Xiaohua: "You were very brave and strong last night. A girl, for me, walked more than two miles in the middle of the night to find the doctor..."
Having said this, Da'an seemed to be excited, his breathing became a little short, and he coughed.
This cough made Yang Ruoqing and Xiaohua become nervous. They both looked at the handkerchief he was covering his mouth for fear of seeing that shocking red color again...
Fortunately, not really.
"Brother Da'an, drink some water." Xiaohua quickly brought hot water.
Daan took a sip, leaned back and closed his eyes to calm down.
Yang Ruoqing said: "With the situation in Da'an, it seems that it is not suitable to travel and work hard today. Why don't we just stay in the restaurant to rest for a day? We will go home tomorrow and celebrate the New Year the day after tomorrow."
Daan struggled and said: "Sister, I don't want my parents to worry. I can do it. Let's leave today."
Yang Ruoqing said: "Silly brother, don't be impatient. Doctor Liu has already said before that he recommends staying in bed today."
"You have a day off today. Maybe tomorrow your complexion will be restored and you will be able to walk around on your own. When you get home, your parents will see that you are standing firmly, and they will naturally be less worried."
"But……"
"It's nothing, but listen to my sister. Besides Xiaohua's face, we have to let it go away from swelling, otherwise it will scare Feng'er when we go back." Yang Ruoqing said again.
Since Yang Ruoqing analyzed all aspects so well and Xiaohua persuaded her from the side, Daan had no choice but to give up and follow their arrangements.
Luo Fengtang sent President Wang and the others away and came to Daan's house to look for Yang Ruoqing. He couldn't find her, so he hurried to the backyard.
In the utility room in the backyard, I found Yang Ruoqing squatting on the ground picking up charcoal.
"Qing'er, what are you doing here?" he asked, and then entered the utility room.
Yang Ruoqing squatted on the ground to sort the charcoal, and said without looking back when she heard the words: "I had discussed it with Daan and Xiaohuana before. We will stay here for one night today and go home tomorrow."
"They are two sick and wounded people. I will find some charcoal and I will make a charcoal brazier and send it to their house later."
