He was not stupid, so how can he not understand Bai Zhi’s intention? His heart was moved . That little girl has a good heart, she knows how to cherish other people . He didn’t help the wrong the person .
Back home, Doctor Lu was waiting at the gate . Seeing them back, he busily asked: “Is Meng Daren still here?”
Bai Zhi replied: “We went to the mountain earlier to gather herbs . But we suddenly encountered a tiger, he got hurt from saving me . He has already returned to the town . Do you need him for something?”
When Doctor Lu heard that Meng Nan was injured by a tiger, he was very shocked: “Was he seriously injured?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “I fainted at the time, I didn’t see his wound . But, Hu Feng said it was only a skin injury . There shouldn’t be a big problem . ”
Doctor Lu sighed and said: “It seems I need to wait for him to recover before the Bai Family’s case is solved . ”
“Bai Family’s case? What case?” Bai Zhi was confused .
Doctor Lu pulled out the IOU letter from his sleeve . Then, he said what happened when he went to the Bai Family earlier: “Fortunately, when I faced her, I took out a fake letter . I really didn’t guess it wrong, that old woman has no intention to pay back her debt . ”
Bai Zhi snorted in anger and said: “That family, they can really do shameless thing one after another . Lu Dafu, you shouldn’t let them go . Otherwise, they will think that debt is now invalid . ”
Doctor Lu nodded his head: “Who said I will? That is also why I came here to find Meng Daren . But since he is not here, I will go to the government office to find him the next day . ”
After Bai Erzhu’s family dug wild vegetables, they directly went to Mrs . Zhang’s second brother’s house . Zhang Erniu was an honest man . He has a good heart . So, when he saw his younger sister’s family came . He took the fleshly dug wild vegetables and quickly ordered his daughter-in-law to cook more porridge .
Bai Erzhu’s family eat at Zhang Erniu’s house until they were full, then went back to the Bai Family with an empty hand .
Bai Dazhu’s family was very hungry, but they only sat at the door, looking straight ahead and waiting for Bai Erzhu’s family to return .
Bai Dabao suddenly jumped up and pointed his finger to the distant figures: “There they are, they come back . ”
When Old Lady Bai, who was sitting in her room, heard those words . She came out of her room and saw Bai Erzhu’s carrying a basket . Seeing this, her original tight face showed a smile, then she quickly tap Mrs . Liu’s arm: “They now return, why are you still standing here? Go and boil water . ”
There was no rice and oil in the house . They can only boil the newly dug out wild vegetables to eat .
Although boiled wild vegetables are bitter, it’s still better to eat than to stay hungry .
Mrs . Liu was very hungry, she was feeling weak, she felt her body have no strength to work . It was even hard for her to stand up: “Niang, I haven’t eaten much in these past few days . My eyes are spinning in hunger, can’t you ask second sister-in-law to cook?”
Old Lady Bai glared at Mrs . Liu and said: “Can’t you talk a bit less nonsense? She just changed her mind to separate . And now that she came back from digging wild vegetables, you want her to cook? Do you think she is Zhao Lan, who is so easy order around?”
Mrs . Liu swept her eyes towards her two sons . Her two sons immediately turned away their eyes elsewhere . Her husband’s two hands still haven’t recovered, she couldn’t count on him… …
Mrs . Liu slowly walked towards the kitchen and poured water in a pot . The fire was not lit, she was about to lit it when suddenly, she heard screaming sound in the front yard .
Mrs . Liu hurriedly dropped the firewood in her hand and ran towards the front yard . She saw Bai Erzhu’s family, each one carrying a basket, but were all empty . No need to ask about wild vegetables, because she can’t even see a single grass .
Mrs . Liu rushed in front and circled around the people . But seriously, there were no wild vegetables!
Mrs . Liu asked Mrs . Zhang: “Where is the food? Didn’t you go to dig wild vegetables?”
