Chapter 58: Chapter 058: Three Encounters

Zhao Juxiang thought, even if she didn’t let Jiaojiao apologize, could Xu Qinghe really do anything about her?

Yesterday, that crazy woman Ji Ying dragged her by her hair, and her scalp still hurt fiercely. To think of having her Jiaojiao apologize? Don’t even think about it.

"Xu Jiaojiao, in this matter, you too are at fault. Where did you get the Badou?" Zhao Juxiang stared at Xu Jiaojiao lying on the bed and interrogated her.

Xu Jiaojiao, feeling guilty, acted coquettishly and grabbed Zhao Juxiang’s hand, saying, "Mom, wasn’t I doing it for second brother? Think about it, it’s fortunate that Xu Nianhua didn’t pass the exam, otherwise, second brother would have..."

Xu Jiaojiao didn’t finish her sentence, but Zhao Juxiang knew if Xu Zhiyuan hadn’t passed and Xu Nianhua had, she would have been furious.

...

The next day, Xu Nian’an went out early in the morning with Xu Nianhua, carrying mung bean jelly to sell.

Today, Xu Nianhua needed to change her dressing.

Once they left, they had no idea about the rumors circulating in Shuangzhu Village.

Last night, the noise from the Xu family was fierce; the voices were loud, and it was nighttime, so the sound carried far. Naturally, people saw it, and later, when Xu Nianhua came out crying, they understood even more about the situation.

Xu Jiaojiao, to prevent Xu Nianhua from going to college, actually made her suffer from diarrhea. Coupled with the previous matter of division in the family, Zhao Juxiang’s reputation in the village had become... not so good.

Moreover, Xu Jiaojiao absolutely refused to apologize to Xu Nianhua, making the villagers think even less of the girl’s upbringing.

Gaoliang County Town.

The Xu siblings had no idea about these rumors, and even if they had, they wouldn’t have paid them any mind.

"Doctor Du." Xu Nianhua, all smiles, offered the mung bean jelly and said, "This is mung bean jelly we made ourselves, just to satisfy a craving."

"That won’t do, a bowl of mung bean jelly costs two dimes. If I’m charging you for medicine, that’s not right," said Du Chang, who was very fond of Xu Nianhua. Knowing that she would come to change her dressing today, he deliberately didn’t go to the clinic.

"Doctor Du, if it wasn’t for your help the last time, my younger sister could have been badly hurt. These few bowls of mung bean jelly are nothing," Xu Nian’an, now quite familiar with the place, fetched two clean bowls from the kitchen and served two bowls of mung bean jelly.

"Then I’ll prescribe another prescription for your sister to help her strengthen her body," Du Chang said, looking at Xu Nianhua’s frail figure with pity. The more he got to know the little girl, the more he liked her.

"Thank you so much, Doctor Du," Xu Nian’an knew his little sister was frail. The family had been too poor before and didn’t have the extra money to help her regain her health. Now that Du Chang was willing to prescribe medicine, Xu Nian’an felt they had to buy it, no matter the cost!

After changing her dressing, Xu Nian’an went to the clinic with Du Chang. Originally, Xu Nianhua was supposed to go as well, but Du Chang said he wasn’t comfortable leaving Pei Yicheng alone, so Xu Nianhua stayed at the Du family’s home.

This was the third time she had seen Pei Yicheng.

The first time, she appeared before him in the most wretched state and thought he was exceedingly handsome, even pitying his inability to walk.

The second time...

Xu Nianhua, thinking about the conversation between him and Doctor Du that time, couldn’t help but get angry!

What skinny bones, what dried bean sprouts?

She was not like dried bean sprouts at all!

Xu Nianhua didn’t want to speak to Pei Yicheng and let her gaze fall on the persimmon tree instead. Compared to the last time, the immature green persimmons seemed to have grown a bit bigger.

And in the corner, there was a chicken in a cage?

Could it be they caged it to keep the yard clean?

Who would keep just one single chicken?
