Chapter 424: Caution Avoids Great Errors!

of rice can a woman eat Even when she receives food from home, she still has to do it all herself!""Yes, you don't want to keep her, just give her to me! I don't have a wife right now!""No, no! I don...Dr. Zhang went to take the pulse of the young girl again, and Jia Yin quietly approached and watched Grandma wipe sweat from the child's forehead.

The child's eyes looked vacant with pain, and strands of hair stuck to their forehead, pitifully.

She hesitated several times before taking out a candy ball and putting it into the child's mouth.

It's not that she's stingy, it's just that there aren't many candy balls left. She can't even bear to eat them herself, she's trying her best to resist the craving, wanting to save them for when her brothers come back on vacation.

Now there's one less…

The little boy tasted the sweetness in his mouth, and slowly, light returned to his eyes.

On the other side, Dr. Zhang frowned and said angrily, "Which beast struck her so severely Her internal organs are badly injured. She needs at least a month or two to recover properly. Eating and taking medicine will be difficult."

After saying this, he called out to Grandma He, "Help wash this girl and see if there are any serious injuries. If they're just bruises and swelling, use medicine oil to rub them, and wait for me to go back and get the medicinal herbs before I make a soup for them."

Having said that, he turned and walked away.

Li Lao'er gave everyone a wink and then instructed He Mamma and Shui Yun Shui Ling, "You two work hard. If anything happens, just report it to the next room."

After saying that, he picked up Jia Yin and took everyone back to his home.

All the villagers sat in the main hall. Lao Er saw that both the village head and Zhao Shu had arrived, so he told them what had happened, adding a couple of sentences at the end.

There were so many people on the street, and they just happened to bump into me. It felt too coincidental. But those big men really didn't hold back, they weren't putting on a show. If I hadn't intervened, that child would have been killed.

And the woman was protecting her brother sincerely. I couldn't decide what to do for a moment, and I didn't want to see them die on the street, so I saved them.

As people recalled the tragic plight of these siblings, they were more inclined to believe that this was merely a coincidence.

After all, no one would risk their life to scheme against others.

Of course, if it's really a plot, then the person behind it is too ruthless.

Li Zhensheng said, “No matter what the truth is, the person has been brought back, and they are so badly injured. Let's shelter them for a while. We should keep an eye on them closely to see what their real intentions are.”

"Tomorrow, ask them their names and do a thorough investigation. I'll go talk to the two veterans who oversee the casino surveillance and see if there's anything unusual going on."

Everyone nodded in agreement. The village head also said, "Let's also tell the villagers to be a little more careful. It never hurts to be cautious."

Right in the middle of their conversation, Grandma He returned and whispered, “Madam, that young girl has many scars on her body. They are very deep and look to be two or three years old. They weren't inflicted recently. The children have some scars too, but fewer.”

Li Laoer's furrowed brows relaxed instantly, "So, this girl isn't lying. Her brother and sister were truly abused by their relatives, unbearable so they ran away"

Li Zhensheng glanced at his younger brother and emphasized again, "Be more careful. I'll bring people to investigate this. For now, just take care of the family."

Li Lao'er nodded quickly, "Okay, Big Brother, don't worry."

With the matter settled, everyone dispersed.

At dusk, the young girl woke up. The first thing she did was look for her younger brother. Seeing him lying beside her fast asleep, she let out a sigh of relief.

But she felt something was wrong with her body. She suddenly grabbed at her dress and tried to sit up.

Grandma He brought in a bowl of hot porridge and, seeing this, quickly stepped forward and pressed her hand down. "Miss, don't move, your clothes are the ones I changed for you!"

The water spirit following behind Grandma He also said, "The medicine oil on your wound was applied by me. Rest assured!"

The girl let out a long sigh of relief and looked at them with puzzled eyes, asking, "Where are we"

Grandmother He lit the oil lamp and replied, "This is the Li family's Broken Gold Beach. We are Grandmother Li and maidservants from the Li family. You are the ones our master rescued!"

Shuiling nodded, skillfully tidied the kang table, and helped the girl lean against the wall to sit up.

She was naturally vivacious and chirpy, asking, “Sister, what on earth happened to you Why were you beaten so badly Doctor Zhang said your brother's leg is broken in two places. If it takes this long to heal, he’ll end up with a club foot.”

"And there's the wound on his head, he bled so much, luckily they stitched it up, otherwise it would be a gaping hole, and he'd have been in agony! And you, not an inch of your body is good, all scars!"

The girl gently patted her brother, slowly lifting her face.

Though the oil lamp burned dim, it was enough to illuminate her face clearly.

Her face was round like a full moon, her forehead smooth and bright. She had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose and red lips. While she wasn't particularly beautiful, she possessed an air of dignity, even a hint of scholarly grace.

Especially a pair of large eyes, with pupils as dark as night, that when you make eye contact with her, you'll unconsciously be mesmerized.

"Water Spirit, still herself, was only surprised and exclaimed, "Oh sister, your eyes are so beautiful."

It was Grandma He who was taken aback. This girl's appearance was exactly the kind that wealthy and influential families adored: dignified, elegant, calm, and cultured—a perfect candidate to be a wife to a prominent family's head.

I just don't understand how it came to this, so miserable and abandoned.

The young woman bowed her head to pay respects to Grandma He and Shui Ling, and in a soft voice, she said, "Thank you both for taking care of my younger brother and me."

Grandma He thought for a moment, then passed the bowl of porridge up, "Miss, eat your rice first. After you finish, you still have to take medicine. Your younger brother has already eaten and gone to sleep, so don't worry about him."

The young lady thanked him again before taking the bowl of porridge and eating.

It was obvious that she was in pain, gasping for air after a few bites and then continuing to eat. But she didn't say a word about the pain.

Grandma He and Shui Ling both watched in silence, afraid to say anything that would add to her burden.

Unfortunately, despite such care, the young lady only ate half a bowl of porridge, but she drank the medicine soup in one gulp.

She wiped the medicine residue from her lips and asked, "I haven't kowtowed to my savior yet…"

"Ma'am He quickly replied, "Our mistress has already gone to sleep. Miss, please rest assured. You can see our mistress tomorrow."

"This courtyard is next to our master's house. Now there are only the two of us and your siblings here. Don't worry, just rest up. If you're uncomfortable anywhere at night, just shout for us."

As she spoke, she patted the child's head and smiled, "Our Dr. Zhang is the best doctor around. Your brother was badly hurt, but he hasn't even developed a fever."

The girl lowered her head, concealing the emotions in her eyes, and softly thanked him.

Soon, Grandma He and Shui Ling tidied up the table and lay down on the kang with bedding.

A rather dim oil lamp stood on the windowsill, and though it was not extinguished, it showed signs of being lit for when someone would get up at night.

The north wind, sneaking in through the window crack, mischievously swayed the flames, trying to put them out.

But the flame was exceptionally strong, refusing to extinguish its light and heat no matter what!

The quiet girl, lying still, sniffed the faint fragrance on the bedding and quietly held her brother's hand.

The younger brother's hand was crushed. Right now, ZiZi carefully wrapped the white gauze strip around it, she didn't dare to use any force, but tears welled up silently in her eyes.

With blurry eyes, she looked up at the beams on the ceiling. They seemed so far away yet pressed down on her, making it hard to breathe…wo flowers inserted.
