General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

Chapter 93



93 Change

In the central room, the village head was sitting opposite Old Master Su.

Old Master Su looked very tired, probably because he was worried about his granddaughter, Su Yuniang.

...

The reason why the Su family was quite famous in the village was due to the great famine in Qingzhou 30 years ago. Many refugees had to go hungry and starving people were everywhere. It was even said that many people had traded their children for food.

Apricot Flower Village also suffered a calamity. It was Old Master Su’s father who went to town to pawn the Su family’s ancestral jade pendant at a high price and bought back food to help the entire village. That was why everyone did not starve to death.

Later on, the entire village mourned when Old Master Su’s father passed away.

It was not an exaggeration to say that without Old Master Su’s father, they would not have their current village.

Because of this relationship, even if he was a village head, even if he was of the same generation as Old Master Su, he still respected him very much. Furthermore, he was indeed nearly ten years younger than Old Master Su.

He said earnestly, “Daya learned from the physician in town. She’s very capable! Last night, Shuanzi’s mother delivered her child with Daya’s help! The mother and son are safe!”

Old Master Su said, “I heard that Mr. Wei also wrote a couplet for Village Head and you stuck it at the entrance. Do you look down on Scholar Chen?”

The village head was a little stunned when he heard this. Why was it related to the couplet? Wasn’t he talking about treating Yuniang?

Soon, the village head came back to his senses.

Scholar Chen’s couplet was sent over on account of the Su family. But the village head had put up the one that was written by Wei Ting. This was equivalent to embarrassing the Su family.

He really didn’t think too much about it. It was his wife who felt that the conflict between Scholar Chen and Madam Huang and Fat Lass Su’s family was too ugly and inauspicious. She didn’t want to paste the one written by Scholar Chen and it had nothing to do with the Su family.

The village head sighed in a low voice. “Brother Su, do you think I came to speak up for Daya because I received benefits from her? When Daya treats Yuniang, the one who benefits is Yuniang, not Daya.”

Old Master Su snorted. “After she treats Yuniang, who won’t look for her if they have a headache or fever in the future?”

The village head knew that Old Master Su was a kind person. He hated evil to the core and disdained interacting with Su Cheng’s family of bullies.

“Daya isn’t such a person.” Li Zheng said, “She’s much more sensible now. She’s doing business and learning skills from others. She’s really changed a lot. If you trust me, let Daya come over and take a look at Yuniang.”

“I don’t want that fatty to treat me!”

Su Yuniang’s panting voice came from the inner room.

She was in so much pain that she was about to abandon the child. However, even so, she would never let someone like Fatty Su treat her!

The village head was confused, but she was not!

Other than being lazy, the Su family only extorted money everywhere. None of their family was good!

Was Fatty Su trying to deceive her again?

Was she, Su Yuniang, such a stupid person?

It was most likely a coincidence that Fatty Su had delivered Madam Zhao’s child safely!

Madam Zhao had given birth to two children before. She could give birth to her third child with her eyes closed. Why would she need a midwife?

“Ouch!”

A sharp pain came from her abdomen. Su Yuniang gripped the mattress tightly and almost fainted.

“Stop talking!” Madam Fang, who was guarding the bed, was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes. “Can’t you save some strength!”

Su Yuniang endured the intense abdominal pain and said with cold sweat, “I… I don’t care… I don’t want Fatty Su to come over…”

The cotton mat under her was soaked in blood again. As Madam Fang wiped her tears, she went to her room to find a new mat for her.

Su Jinniang said in a low voice, “Sister, why don’t… I go to the Su family to take a look? If Fatty Su is really lying, I should be able to find out after testing her.”

Su Yuniang glared at her. “Forget it! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to!”

Su Jinniang’s expression changed slightly. She lowered her head and remained silent.

Outside the house, the village head was a little awkward.

Old Master Su said, “Go back. I’ve already asked Yuniang’s brother to go to the Rong’en Hall in town to invite a doctor.”

The village head was shocked. “Rong’en Hall? The medical center in town? The consultation fees there are not cheap!”

Especially when it came to house calls, it was countless times more expensive than a court consultation!

Old Master Su said, “Yu Niang doesn’t lack this bit of silver.”

The village head was stunned.

That’s right. How could he have forgotten that Yu Niang had married into the richest village in the surrounding villages-Shallow Water Village? Her husband was the biological grandson of the village head!

Her conditions were naturally not bad.

Thinking of something, the village head said, “But the medical center hasn’t opened on the first day of the new year. Even if you have money, I’m afraid we won’t be able to hire a doctor!”

Old Master Su said proudly, “Yu Niang’s sister-in-law married into town. Her husband’s family is quite famous in town. She knows a few doctors.”

The village head couldn’t help but sigh. Yu Niang was really lucky.

At this point, it was not convenient for the village head to persuade him further.

Although he trusted Su Daya, he did not dare to say that her medical skills were better than the doctors of Rong’en Hall.

It was naturally best if the Su family could invite a doctor from Rong’en Hall.

The village head stood up and left.

Old Master Su asked Su Jinniang to bring him a box of tea leaves that Yu Niang had brought back.

The village head refused.

Old Master Su said, “I can’t let you come for nothing. You remember our Su family in your heart. I understand. Take it. Yu Niang brought back a lot. There’s still a lot at home.”

The village head was originally a little puzzled. For example, why did Yu Niang return to her maiden home alone? Where was her husband?

He couldn’t ask anymore.

He smiled. “Then it would be disrespectful of me to refuse.”

At Little Su’s house, Su Daya had just changed the three little fellows’ clothes and played three rounds of kissing and hugging. The three little ones were finally satisfied.

Father Su was doing something in the backyard, carving and scraping with a knife.

“Dad, what are you doing?” Su Xiaoxiao walked over.

Old Master Su nodded and said, “Making a few slingshots for Dahu and the others.”

Su Xiaoxiao squatted down beside her father and looked at the wood on the ground. “They’re so small. Can they play with slingshots?”

Old Master Su sighed. “Niudan brought a slingshot over this morning. The three of them were extremely envious.”

The daily routine of Niudan and the three little ones was to show off. They would compare everything from food to toys.

Niudan was a seven-year-old child, so he naturally knew how to play better than a two-and-a-half-year-old kid.

Su Xiaoxiao thought to herself, that her father really spoiled them. She would wait to see who he can cry to when they eventually leave with Wei Ting.

Father Su said, “It’s cold outside. Go in and warm yourself by the fire!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Go in and do it too.”

As Father Su peeled the wood, he said, “The room is too dark.”

It was snowing today. When the door was closed, there was no light. When the door was opened, the people in the room would freeze.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Father Su’s hands which were turning purple from the cold and said, “Dad, let me do it. I’m better at this than you.”

Su Cheng asked, “When did you learn to do this?”

Su Xiaoxiao said without changing her expression, “Didn’t you make it for Ergou and me when we were young? I’ve remembered it all! If you don’t believe me, I’ll make one for you later!”
