However, Zhang Shan Ni is extrely satisfied to see such a developnt.
"Broken?" Zhang Shan Ni suppresses the laughter that is about to burst forth, and counters.
Her delicate face slightly lifted, she looks down upon him with narrow apricot-shaped eyes, her gaze flicking towards Wang Junxuan’s exposed delicate little foot. The snow-white color of his skin, like that of a stead bun, doesn’t even have a trace of swelling or bruising, yet he dares to say... he doesn’t want to beco crippled?
Are his eyes blind?
Is he sure it’s his foot that’s broken and not his eye that’s straying?!!
The onlooking villagers have the sa thought cross their minds at the sa ti.
Indeed, there are absolutely no marks or swelling on Wang Junxuan’s slender legs; you say it’s broken, but where is the break? There’s no need to touch it, even the naked eye can see it!
Do you really think just by shedding a couple of crocodile tears and breaking out in so sweat, everyone will agree with what he’s saying? Everyone has eyes, it’s not like they’re actually blind; who can’t see what the reality is?
"Of course it’s broken..."
"Shut your mouth!" Wang Guicai hastily interrupts his daughter’s words, his eyes shifting towards Zhang Shan Ni with a look of terror.
Yes, both shocked and terrified.
He himself was trained in traditional Chinese dicine; whether his son’s calf was fine or not, he was well aware.
Yet, his son’s performance didn’t seem like a feigned injury; seeing him sweating profusely in pain, his complexion turning pale and green, he was certain of the genuineness of his son’s agony!
Therefore, the ans of the opponent was astonishing; perhaps she was one of the ancient dical experts spoken of in traditional Chinese dicine, targeting the acupuncture points on his son’s leg, inducing an illusion in his body, compressing the central brain nerves, which is what made him exhibit such excruciating pain!
Thinking this way, Wang Guicai’s legs have already gone weak, daring not let his daughter speak recklessly anymore; instead, with fear and respect, he says, "Jing, Jingchen’s family, it’s my daughter and son who are wrong, as an adult you have great tolerance, please don’t take the children’s actions to heart!"
"Take to heart?" Zhang Shan Ni doesn’t even turn her gaze towards Wang Xiuzhen, but instead looks at Wang Guicai, the ’adult’, and speaks indifferently in a deep tone:
"Dr. Wang really puts one in a difficult position. To talk about who’s being petty, I would have to plead with your beloved son and daughters not to target the Xie Family mbers again! I won’t ntion that previous letter, but the condition of my little aunt, you couldn’t possibly ’diagnose’ it, could you?"
Speaking, Zhang Shan Ni follows Wang Guicai’s movent, suddenly shooting a sharp glare towards Wang Xiuzhen.
"I, I..." Wang Xiuzhen, noticing her father’s glance, shakes her head guiltily.
The very embodint of ’the thief has a guilty conscience’!
"Indeed, it is my failure in raising my children, Jingchen’s family, for the sake of being from the sa village, could you first release my son’s acupuncture points?" Wang Guicai no longer cares about his foolish daughter and instead looks towards Zhang Shan Ni with a plea.
Seeing his son continuously crying out in pain, his heart ached. Although the acupuncture wouldn’t damage the body, the constant intense pain could drive a person insane over ti!
Wang Guicai was so anxious that he kept imagining the situation worse than it was, unable to calm down at all.
"Ha, don’t joke around! Wang Guicai, you’re the doctor, my Third Son’s Wife is just a simple village girl, how could she possibly know how to release any acupoints... Instead, Dr. Wang, now that you’ve seen your son, can you treat my youngest, Jingchen?" It was at this point that Xie Tiesheng stepped in front of Zhang Shan Ni, loudly questioning Wang Guicai, his rough voice betraying his inner rage.
"Well," Wang Guicai wiped the sweat from his forehead, "this little niece of mine, as long as she wakes up, she will be—fine! Old Xie..."
"Don’t!" Upon hearing Wang Guicai’s reply, which was nearly an affirmation, Xie Tiesheng stared with eyes ablaze at the siblings Wang Junxuan and Wang Xiuzhen, angrily retorted with gritted teeth: "Our Jingchen doesn’t deserve your ’little niece’! If you don’t give a clear explanation for this, don’t bla for taking action!"
"No, no, Brother Xie—"
"Stop there, if you’re here to feign relations, we have nothing further to talk about!" However, Xie Tiesheng was not giving Wang Guicai any leeway as this involved the lifelong happiness of his youngest, how could he let the Wang Family ruin his youngest’s reputation!
"Ah, Accountant Xie, please don’t be upset, this really is a misunderstanding! This, this is my fault!" Saying this, Wang Guicai glared at his daughter, his eyes rolling, and imdiately started explaining profusely with sweat-drenched urgency:
"This powder was newly made by and stored by the stove. It was Zhenzhen, this child, who foolishly knocked it over and spilled it into the water, that’s why this happened! Zhenzhen and Junxuan have been watched grow up by all the elders here, these siblings are too timid, they wouldn’t dare to harbor any ill intentions!"
"Oh, the ’spilling’ was done so wonderfully, Dr. Wang truly has the Heavenly Eye, to ’predict’ such events, truly "like father, like daughter"!"
Zhang Shan Ni was seething inside and couldn’t be calm facing Wang Guicai’s family!
Thinking of the implications in Wang Xiuzhen’s words, her entire heart felt like it was on fire, her words were extrely sharp, completely unafraid of any consequences or retribution from Wang Guicai, and she innocently retorted:
"This ’child’ was lucky, it was only a sedative that got knocked over, and ’just happened’ to only affect my Jingchen. Later on, Dr. Wang, you might want to store your powders more carefully, or else—if by chance it turned out to be poison that was accidentally spilled, then truly... heaven would have claid a life."
"You—!" When Wang Xiuzhen was referred to as a ’child’, she was so embarrassed her face turned half red and half white, and before she could speak, she was silenced by her father’s glare, biting her tongue. However, she was so frightened by Zhang Shan Ni’s three words "heaven would have claid," that it made her choke on her saliva, causing her to cough violently with a "cough, cough, cough."
At this mont, Wang Junxuan was already numb from the pain, curled up hugging his knees, pleadingly said, "Dad, Dad, please relieve my pain first!"
Seeing his son crying out in pain and his daughter choking nearly to the point of coughing up her lungs, Wang Guicai was extrely anxious. If it weren’t for the village people gathered outside, he would have kneeled down to Zhang Shan Ni; anything but to see his precious children suffer, that he could not accept!
"Accountant Xie, I know it’s my children’s fault, I will discipline them when we get back, I beg you, for the sake of being from the sa village, to release the acupoint on this boy!"
"Dr. Wang, you talk as if it’s so easy, to ask to release what kind of ghostly acupoint. Not to ntion I don’t know how, even if I did, I wouldn’t do it!" However, Zhang Shan Ni quickly intercepted before her father-in-law could speak, bluntly refusing and sternly displaying her frankness post retaliation:
"Dr. Wang, if it weren’t for taking into consideration that you still hold dical ethics towards Qingfeng Village, I definitely wouldn’t have been so ’lenient yet stern’!"
In Zhang Shan Ni’s mind, she will ultimately follow her own husband to travel, and it doesn’t matter whether the village people have a favorable impression of her. But her father-in-law is going to stay in the village, and if his reputation is bad, his future work will be compromised.
Reputation is extrely important in this era.
So Zhang Shan Ni did not give her father-in-law a chance to speak, she rushed to finish her speech before him.
