Chapter 56: Enjoy It Well
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Madam Luo was displeased. She spat at Chen Xiang’s house. “What a lackey. You deserve to be bullied!”
Su Li returned to the house and did not do anything. She took a pile of herbs and started to develop them.
The two little guys did not disturb her and very consciously revised the things they had studied previously.
For dinner, Su Li brought the food into the east room and said to He Yufeng,
“Rest well today. I’ll go to town to find a doctor tomorrow.”
He Yufeng stared at Su Li’s face, as if he wanted to see something from it.
Su Li subconsciously touched her face. “Is there something on my face?”
He Yufeng shook his head and said, “I can’t feel my lower body at all now. I might be like this for the rest of my life. If you want to leave, we can divorce…” At this point, He Yufeng paused.
“It’s just that can you take care of these two children? They can’t support themselves yet. It’ll be fine when they’re older!”
He Qingyao and He Qingmu were still young. In another two years, they would be able to find food for themselves. Even if no one cared about them, they would not starve to death!
The air in the room was eerily quiet.
Outside the house, two little kids were lying outside the door. They heard He Yufeng’s words clearly.
They were extremely afraid. They were afraid that He Yufeng would lie on the bed and never get up again. They were afraid that Su Li would not want them!
“Brother!” He Qingmu called out to He Qingyao in fear.
He Qingyao placed his finger on his lips and made a shushing gesture.
He Qingmu quickly covered his mouth.
Su Li stared at He Yufeng’s face as if she was seriously considering his words.
It was easy to divorce, but her household registration was a problem after the divorce. Here, the household registration of the divorced woman could not be registered as an independent. She could only choose to transfer back to her parental family. This was a huge problem for women who wanted to divorce.
If her maternal family was good, it was fine. If her maternal family was not good, it might be another fire pit.
She did not have much memory of the Host’s family, nor did she have any memories of the people in her family. Relatively speaking, she was still willing to choose He Yufeng’s family.
She liked the two little guys very much. In addition, He Yufeng would not interfere with anything she did, so she did not consider divorce for the time being.
Su Li said seriously, “Rest well. I won’t divorce you.”
He Yufeng did not expect Su Li to reject him so bluntly. He said, “Think about it carefully. If in the future, I…”
“I’ve thought it through very clearly. Just lie down and don’t think about those useless things!” Su Li said.
“Sob sob-” A cry came from outside the door.
Su Li walked out of the door. He Qingmu was standing outside and crying sadly while He Qingyao stood at the side in frustration.
“What happened?” Su Li asked.
“Mother, I don’t want you to leave. Don’t leave us!”
“We can’t live without you. We don’t want to be motherless.”
“Children without a mother will be bullied and scolded as wild children.
Mother, don’t leave. Boohoo…”
Although their mother had not treated them well in the past, at least they still had their mother. No one would scold them for being motherless. If their mother left, no one would want them anymore in the future!
Originally, He Qingmu was the only one crying. As he spoke, He Qingyao also started to cry. Su Li watched as the two brothers cried until their noses were snotty and their eyes were filled with tears. She burst into laughter. “Who said that I don’t want you? I won’t leave. Don’t worry!”
He Qingmu sniffled and said, “Really?”
Su Li said, “Of course it’s true. This is my home. Where can I go?”
Hearing Su Li’s words, He Qingyao and He Qingmu were very happy. Su Li wiped their noses.
“You’re men, so you can’t cry casually, understand?”
“Yes, yes!” He Qingyao and He Qingmu nodded vigorously.
It was not easy for Su Li to comfort He Qingyao and He Qingmu. She could tell that they were very sensitive and especially insecure. This factor might be related to the original owner’s previous actions.
This woman said that this was her home. Didn’t she always want to escape in the past?
Was she just merely coaxing the children this time, or were her words from the bottom of her heart?
He Yufeng lay on the bed in deep thought. After a while, he lowered his head and looked at his leg. If he could still stand up this time, he would definitely treat Su Li better in the future.
At night, snores came from the east room.
Su Li put the developed powder into her pocket and tiptoed out of the room, then gently closed the door.
She looked at Madam Luo’s door and smiled. The children were her bottom line. She could bully her, but she definitely could not bully her children!
Su Li climbed over the courtyard wall and arrived at Madam Luo’s room. She tried to push the door gently with her hand, but it did not open. It must have been bolted.
Fortunately, Su Li was already prepared. She took out the tool to open the door and gently pried it open.
After confirming that she did not wake the Luo couple up, Su Li tiptoed in.
Madam Luo was snoring when Su Li walked to the bed and sprinkled the medicinal powder she had brought on Madam Luo.
Su Li clapped her hands and smiled at Madam Luo. “Enjoy it well!”
With that, she turned around and walked out. She even considerately closed the door for Mdm Luo.
Originally, she could have drugged the water that Madam Luo drank, but the only person who had offended her was Madam Luo. She had always been very clear that she should not implicate one’s family. She would bear the blame for Madam Luo’s own mistakes!
When Su Li returned home and closed the door, He Yufeng, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes. However, he thought of something and closed his eyes to continue sleeping.
After returning to her room, Su Li did not fall asleep immediately. She flashed into the interspace.
He Yufeng was about to undergo surgery. She would first see if there were any medicinal herbs in her space that could be used.
Su Li counted the herbs in her space and realized that there was still a large portion of herbs she required. However, she was not in a hurry to buy them. She could go to Huiren Hall to buy it.
What she was most anxious about now was surgical tools. Many professional tools did not exist in this dynasty. She wondered if she could get the blacksmith to make one now.
Su Li began to focus on drawing the blueprints. Now, she could only place her hopes on the blacksmith. Although there were no professional tools and it would not affect the surgery, the effect would more or less differ.
“Phew-” Su Li had just blown on the blueprint she had drawn and was very satisfied with her painting.
“If only my old box was still here!” Su Li muttered softly.
The box was filled with the things she was used to using.
When she was in university, she secretly chose to major in Western medicine.
Later on, she could not win over blood ties, so the old man pulled her to a small county to inherit the family business!
The old man did not like her learning western medicine, so she secretly hid her tools and took them out to breathe when the old man was not paying attention.
Just as Su Li finished speaking, she heard a clang behind her..
