Overbearing Immortal Doctor
Chapter 22 - 22 22 The Troublesome Kid

22: Chapter 22 The Troublesome Kid 22: Chapter 22 The Troublesome Kid Under the herding of several young men from the Niu Family, people just symbolically moved to another place.

Seeing how people reacted, Niu Dachun also became reckless and threatened, “Do you guys still want to irrigate your land?

If anyone doesn’t leave, I’ll put their family last in line!”

Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but worry about this guy’s intelligence.

The village head swapping the irrigation order privately had already left the villagers with different surnames very displeased.

Now this guy was openly using irrigation as a threat to everyone, wasn’t he slapping his father in the face?

Sure enough, village head Niu Mansheng immediately turned his attention upon hearing his son’s words and swung a stick at Niu Dachun.

Niu Dachun was completely unprepared, taking a solid hit from his father.

He jumped up and then covered his hip, saying, “Dad!

Why are you hitting me?”

Seeing that the guy hadn’t woken up to this, Niu Mansheng became even angrier.

He had been wise all his life, how could he have raised such an idiot!

Are you really my son?

Niu Mansheng raised his stick again, looking like he was going to hit him, but didn’t, instead yelling, “I’ll beat you to death, you fool!

What nonsense are you spouting?

The irrigation order has been set, how could it be up to you to arrange?”

Clearly, these words were meant for the people present.

Although everyone knew he had privately changed the irrigation order, he still needed this façade!

Niu Mancang and Niu Mantun, the two brothers, saw the village head turning to hit Niu Dachun and immediately ran home, even locking the door from inside.

Poor Niu Dachun had come to help but ended up getting beaten.

Thus, the farce ended abruptly, but the onlookers were quite satisfied, adding much to their repertoire of mealtime gossip.

Besides, they personally witnessed the village head’s foolish son discrediting his father, which alone would be enough for the villagers to talk about for quite some time.

After Wu Xiaoyu’s small cunning plan succeeded, he felt little emotion.

This tiny sense of accomplishment no longer excited him.

His mind was entirely focused on raising chickens, especially after witnessing the miraculous effects of Spiritual Spring yesterday, which only strengthened his resolve.

Indeed, there was much to achieve on this vast Earth.

Leaving the entrance of the Niu brothers’ house, Wu Xiaoyu didn’t go straight home but started wandering around the village, looking for suitable places to raise chickens.

Although his mother wasn’t very supportive now, with his father gently guiding her along, it shouldn’t be an issue.

So he needed to start some preliminary preparations.

He was about to check the family’s field when he happened to meet Li Yujia carrying water at the village entrance.

He quickly walked over and forcibly took the yoke from her, saying, “Come on, Jiajia, let me help you!”

Li Yujia didn’t hold back, handed over the yoke, and said, “Thanks, Brother Xiaoyu!”

“No need to be polite!” Wu Xiaoyu said, carrying over a hundred pounds of water on his shoulder, feeling rather sweet inside.

But this sweetness was unrelated to Li Yujia, or rather indirectly related.

Li Yujia’s house wasn’t far from the village entrance, but they had to pass through some alleys.

The women gossiping at the alley entrance couldn’t help but tease them as they walked side by side.

“Xiaoyu, helping your mother-in-law carry water again?”

“Why does Jiajia have to follow you?

Don’t be too greedy!”

“…”

Although Li Yujia knew these women were teasing her elder sister, she still couldn’t help blushing and walked a few steps faster to avoid these gossipy women.

Wu Xiaoyu, however, didn’t shy away and boldly said, “Auntie, do you have any unmarried daughters?”

“Get lost…”

Under this teasing, Wu Xiaoyu walked back and forth a few times before filling Li Yujia’s family’s water tank.

If it had been before, he would’ve been sweating from exhaustion, but today, not only did he not feel tired, he didn’t even sweat a drop.

Could this be due to his practicing?

After filling the water, Wu Xiaoyu was about to leave but was stopped by Li Yujia.

She asked, “Did my sister call you these days?”

Telephone?

Hearing her question, Wu Xiaoyu realized it had been over a week since he had contacted Li Yuqi.

The girl who had once captivated him had surprisingly slipped his mind.

Feeling a bit guilty, he said, “It seems she hasn’t contacted me for over a week, maybe she’s busy with her studies.

Why?”

Li Yujia looked somewhat evasive and nervous, hurriedly saying, “Oh, nothing, just asking casually.

She must be really busy these days!”

After coming out of Li Yujia’s house, Wu Xiaoyu felt uneasy.

Li Yujia’s expression seemed nervous and concealed.

Could something have happened to Li Yuqi?

Wu Xiaoyu took out his phone, opened WeChat, and found their last communication was more than ten days ago.

He then dialed her number, and the phone rang for a long time before someone answered.

“Hello!

What are you doing?” Wu Xiaoyu asked.

A soft voice came from the phone, “Oh, Xiaoyu!

I’m in the library.

Finals are coming up, so I need to study hard.

What’s up?”

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu felt relieved as if a stone had been lifted from his heart.

He said, “Nothing!

Just hadn’t contacted you for a while…”

Before he finished speaking, she interrupted, “I need to study, if there’s nothing urgent, I’ll hang up first!”

Just as Wu Xiaoyu wanted to say something, he heard another girl on the phone mutter, “Yuqi, how do you solve this problem?”

“Alright then!

You study hard.

I’ll hang up now?”

“Okay!”

After the call ended, Wu Xiaoyu lightly slapped his face and smiled.

What was he worrying about?

Raising chickens, making money, driving luxury cars, and living in mansions should be his focus now!

After leaving Li Yujia’s house, Wu Xiaoyu strolled to his family’s field.

If he were to raise chickens here, he would definitely need to build a coop, and investing thirty to fifty thousand wouldn’t be enough.

Furthermore, his mother was already against him raising chickens.

If he occupied their field, and they couldn’t harvest crops, she would definitely oppose it vehemently.

The current strategy was to reduce investment pressure, alleviating opposition from his mother.

Once he made his first money from raising chickens with the help of Spiritual Spring, she wouldn’t say anything anymore!
