He had already broken several batches of bowls in his own house. He had come here to show off. How could he let go of such a good opportunity?
Su Li nodded. “Alright then!”
Coincidentally, she wanted to change to new bowls. If it was broken, she would buy new ones.
Cheng Yu finally finished washing the bowls under the gazes of a few pairs of eyes.
Su Li had also changed her clothes. “Get ready and let’s begin!”
Cheng Yu cleaned his hands and said, “Alright, I’ll be right there.”
A trace of surprise flashed across He Yufeng’s eyes as he listened to their conversation. It sounded like the person who performed this surgery was not Cheng Yu, but Su Li.
He Yufeng recalled carefully and realized that Cheng Yu’s attitude towards Su Li did not seem to be one of admiration. Instead, it was respectful.
Su Li was just a farmer’s wife. Why would a famous doctor from Huiren Hall be so respectful to her? Unless she had something he needed, he could not think of anything else that could convince a doctor other than medical skills.
Instantly, He Yufeng felt like he had been kept in the dark. Su Li was the one who performed his surgery last time, right?
He Yufeng opened his mouth to ask Su Li for confirmation, but he felt that this was not a good time, so he shut his mouth.
Su Li didn’t know what He Yufeng was thinking. Before the surgery, she said to He Yufeng, “Please help me keep an eye. No one can come in and disturb us during the surgery.”
This surgery was very important. If someone interrupted halfway, it was very easy to fail.
He Yufeng nodded and said, “Okay, don’t worry!”
Ling Yiran was lying on the bed when he saw Su Li and Cheng Yu walk in one after another.
Ling Yiran looked at Su Li and asked, “You were the one who operated on me?”
Su Li smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry. My medical skills are not bad. I should be able to save your life, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
Ling Yiran was speechless.
Look at her, was that even human language?
Couldn’t she give the patient some encouragement? If he wasn’t mentally strong, she would have been scared to death before the surgery even started.
Cheng Yu stood at the side, not daring to make a sound. He only hoped that he could act as an invisible person at this moment.
Su Li took out the anesthetic she had prepared.
Cheng Yu looked completely different when he saw this.
How could Ling Yiran not understand when he saw him like this? It must be the anesthetic that Cheng Yu was talking about.
However, this thing did look different from the numbing powder they used. He did not know how effective it was.
Su Li waved the anesthetic in front of Ling Yiran and said, “I’ll give you an injection later. I guarantee that you won’t feel any pain during the entire process.”
Ling Yiran was speechless. Why did he feel like she was sending him on his way?
Su Li swiftly gave Ling Yiran a shot.
After a while, Ling Yiran felt that his eyelids were very heavy, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
“Let’s begin!” Su Li said.
Cheng Yu nodded. “Alright!”
In the beginning, Cheng Yu realized that Ling Yiran had really fallen asleep. He felt that this anesthetic was really too magical. It was many times better than the one they used currently!
Su Li glanced at him and reminded him, “Don’t be distracted.”
Cheng Yu restrained himself and said, “Alright.”
The surgery was proceeding in an orderly manner.
He Yufeng sat in the courtyard and continued to make toys. He Qingyao and He Qingmu played with their Rubik’s Cube respectively. No one made a sound, afraid of disturbing the people in the room.
It was calm here, but they did not know that danger was quietly descending.
Tap, tap, tap-
A group of people in military uniforms rode towards the He Family Village.
Someone at the side said, “Is this really useful? What if those people aren’t afraid of us?”
The leader snorted coldly. “What do those village people know? They probably haven’t seen the officials in their lives. When they see us later, they’ll bow down.”
Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the He Family Village. The villagers with good eyesight noticed them and stood up on their tiptoes to take a look.
“Look, there are soldiers walking towards us.”
“Let me see, let me see!!”
“Ah, it’s really the soldiers. What happened? Why are there soldiers coming to our village?”
“That’s right! What’s going on? This is the first time I’ve encountered soldiers in my life.”
In the past, they could not see the soldiers even once in a hundred years. People did not expect to see them so easily this time.
Cheng Yu saw that something was wrong with her expression and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Su Li shook her head and said, “Nothing. Let’s continue!”
Chen Xiang’s plot of land was not far from the roadside. She was fertilizing the chili. When she saw the soldiers enter the village, she could not help but mutter, “How rare. Why would the soldiers come to our small little village?”
The villagers also found it strange. One by one, they began to gather at the side.
Those people were a little dissatisfied with the situation in front of them and looked even more impatient. They were not monkeys, so what was there to see?
If it wasn’t to catch that person, why would they do this?
They originally wanted to shout at these unruly people, but when they thought of their purpose for coming, they swallowed the words that were about to come out of their mouths.
Those people looked at the villagers and asked, “Have there been any strangers in your village recently? Or strange people?”
The villager did not expect the officer to speak to him. He quickly said, “Sir, no one has come to the village recently.”
Who would be willing to come to their place?
If not for the fact that they had nowhere to go, they would have moved their entire family long ago. Why would they stay here?
“Really?” The leader asked with a straight face.
Could it be that this group of village people was deliberately hiding it?
The villagers still shook their heads. Indeed, no one had come to their village. They had not seen any strangers recently, and they could not lie about this.
The group of people said with a straight face, “Recently, a murderer escaped and even ran near your village. We were ordered to pursue him. If you see him, you have to tell us the truth. Hiding a fugitive is a huge crime. When the time comes, we’ll capture you and behead you.”
The villagers had never seen such a scene before. They were all shocked and said, “Sir, we really haven’t seen that fugitive. Moreover, there hasn’t been anyone in the village recently. The village is only so big. If he comes, we will definitely know!”
The group of people glanced at them again. “You’d better think about it. If you provide clues, there will be a hundred taels of silver.”
As the saying went, money made the world go round. As long as they took out the silver, they did not believe that these people would not be tempted. They had probably never seen so much money in their lives.
Upon hearing that there was money, a smile appeared on the frightened villagers’ faces.
100 taels!
If they could get a hundred taels, their days wouldn’t be the same as before..
