80: Chapter 81 The Desire to Die_1 80: Chapter 81 The Desire to Die_1 Wu Youcai nodded, “Ah Hong’s leg will be fine after another two months of rest.”
Most of the households in the village are composed of kind people, and since Tan Zhenghong is quite popular, the majority were quite happy.
Wu Youcai continued, “Ah Hong’s wife knows the joint-healing thod.
It’s thanks to her willingness to share that I’ve gotten a bit of insight.
This is a great thing.”
“She’s nothing but a fool.
How could she possibly know anything about the joint-healing thod?
Uncle Wu, don’t harm the villagers!”
Tan Zhengyong kindly reminded, as he certainly did not believe such nonsense!
Wu Youcai replied, “Just wait two months and see Ah Hong’s leg, then you’ll all know.”
A villager chid in, “Maybe this ti it was just a fluke—a blind cat running into a dead rat—and next ti won’t be so lucky!”
“I also find it unlikely.
How could a woman possibly know how to do that?”
“My dical skills may be modest, but I am not one to spout nonsense.
I wouldn’t speak carelessly about sothing I’m not certain of.”
Having served as a doctor in Willow Village for over a decade, Doctor Wu had earned so reputation, so the skeptical voices instantly grew softer.
Nevertheless, many people were still harboring doubts.
Could a fool really surpass Uncle Wu’s dical expertise?
Even wiggling your toes would help you see the answer to such a simple question.
Little Wang Clan heaved a sigh of relief at last; now that everyone was preoccupied with this issue, the previous incident would surely be left unresolved.
But she forgot that Qiao Duo’er, although disliking trouble, was not soone to be bullied.
Now that the feud had been openly declared, Little Wang Clan should not expect to walk away unscathed.
Qiao Duo’er said helplessly, “I’ve just seen soone set bones a few tis before.
Fourth Boss getting better was indeed lucky, but Uncle Wu is cautious and will take responsibility for the villagers.
However, we should still continue discussing the earlier matter today.”
As for dical skills, she did not care, because she knew she was only half-skilled and had nothing to justify.
What interested her more was severing ties with a bunch of shaless people.
Seeing Qiao Duo’er redirect the conversation back to the previous topic, Little Wang Clan felt like dying.
Without a word from Little Wang Clan, Qiao Duo’er slyly spoke, “Second sister-in-law, your silence is making a bit nervous.”
Griding her teeth, Little Wang Clan said, “The other day, I even saw belly bands hanging in Erhu’s yard.
Don’t think you’re safe just because you’ve hidden them away!”
She knew the belly bands were in this very yard, but she just couldn’t find them!
This feeling was truly maddening!
“So, second sister-in-law witnessed it with her own eyes?
Then why didn’t you co over to catch the act at that ti?”
Qiao Duo’er was curious because making a scene days later was not the usual practice.
Normally, upon seeing it, one would catch the person imdiately, or else pretend to know nothing and bring it up casually during a chat with other won.
And this woman was just asking for it!
The slap just now didn’t diminish her fighting spirit one bit.
“I…
I was giving you face,” Little Wang Clan stamred in explanation.
Qiao Duo’er understood, “Then, I should thank you, second sister-in-law.
But why aren’t you giving face today?”
Little Wang Clan clenched her teeth; she considered herself a smooth talker.
But with Qiao Duo’er, she was still lacking so skill, and in her haste earlier, she almost blurted out the truth.
“I felt bad for Fourth Boss.
He’s disabled and has to weave and sell baskets all day long, and yet you go around stealing other n!”
Li Clan ca to Wang Clan’s defense—the woman was slow-witted and still dared to make a fuss like others!
After all, she believed Qiao Duo’er’s involvent with Sun Erhu was suspect.
Now that she had the backing of Wang Clan and Little Wang Clan, she, of course, beca more audacious.
