Chapter 2 Wangshu
Zhang Zhaodi rushed to the village entrance where the transaction was to take place, but no one was there.

Su Yaoguang was worried about her health and followed her all the time. After making sure that Qian Yaren had left, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Yaoguang Niang, who are you looking for?" A charming woman came over with a handkerchief in her hand and a smile on her face.

When Zhang Zhaodi saw this person, her face was filled with disgust.

"It's none of your business. Don't come looking for trouble."

"Why are you still so rude? You had a bad temper when you were young, and you still have a bad temper now. By the way, I heard that your daughter bought a live-in son-in-law. I also bought one, but not as a live-in son-in-law, but as a long-term worker. After all, I have a son, so there is no need to find a live-in son-in-law. My son Huier needs to go to school, so someone has to do the housework."

Zhang Zhaodi didn't bother to listen to what the woman said. She dragged Su Yaoguang back and cursed as she walked, "I'll deal with you when we get back."

Su Yaoguang turned around and looked at Zhong Lanhua.

"What kind of farmhand did your family buy?" She didn't see Zhong Lanhua present just now. Could it be that after she left, Xiao Yanci was bought by her?

"What did you say to her?" Zhang Zhaodi pinched the soft flesh on Su Yaoguang's arm. "You useless thing, didn't I tell you not to talk to her family?"

Zhong Lanhua said something in the back, but Zhang Zhaodi cursed so loudly that Su Yaoguang didn't hear it. However, she already had a premonition in her heart.

Zhang Zhaodi was so angry that she said she had a headache as soon as she got home and went back to her room to rest.

Su Yaoguang quickly settled her down, then went to find the village barefoot doctor and asked him to come and help check Zhang Zhaodi, and at the same time examine the young man and prescribe some medicine.

The young man looked badly injured, but he wouldn't be dead at this stage. If he were dead, he wouldn't be forced into that state by the brothel's madam.

As for whether he stayed or left after waking up, it was up to him. Su Yaoguang didn't want to force anyone.

In her previous life, Su Yaoguang hadn't forced Xiao Yanci to leave. She had asked him if he wanted to leave, but it was he who refused. She had thought they were in love, but it turned out to be her own wishful thinking.

"This kid has serious external injuries, but fortunately no internal injuries. As long as he takes good care of himself, he'll be able to get out of bed in ten days or half a month." The doctor said, "I heard you bought a live-in son-in-law, I guess he's the one."

"Thank you, Uncle Lin. But Uncle Lin, how is my mother's health?"

"Your mother is simply overworked. As long as she worries less and works less, she won't get worse day by day. She's suffering from a mental illness. You should comfort her."

After seeing off Doctor Lin, Su Yaoguang heard Zhang Zhaodi coughing and immediately went in to pour her a glass of water.

Zhang Zhaodi glared at her, and she licked her face and smiled sweetly.

"Mom, don't be angry. Uncle Lin said that although he looks seriously injured, it's actually not serious at all. He will be able to get out of bed in ten days or half a month. Think about it, I bought him for ten cents, and the medical consultation and medicine costs only a hundred cents. I made a lot of money. I am worthy of being your daughter. I am so good at saving money." Su Yaoer nodded in self-approval.

Zhang Zhaodi wanted to scold her, but seeing her smile so flattering, she couldn't bring herself to do so. Her husband had joined the army and never returned, leaving her and her daughter to depend on each other for years. This time, she was seriously ill and kept dreaming about that dead man, making her increasingly worried that he would take her away. That's why she asked her to use all her savings to buy a live-in son-in-law.

According to the laws of the time, the household registration of a son-in-law is placed in the woman's family, the head of the household is the woman, and the woman is the head of the household.

"If he gets better, we'll let this matter go. If he doesn't, I'll show you how I'll deal with you." Zhang Zhaodi said, poking her forehead.

Su Yaoguang knew that Zhang Zhaodi was just being harsh, but in the end she would still let her do whatever she wanted. She hugged Zhang Zhaodi's waist and leaned on her shoulder: "Mom, I only want you."

A hint of sadness flashed across Zhang Zhaodi's eyes.

This silly girl, can she still stay with him for the rest of his life?

She is a midwife and others think she is dirty, so no one has come to propose marriage to her daughter even though she is fifteen years old.

Su Yaoguang waited until Zhang Zhaodi fell asleep, then went to the woodshed and sat beside the bed, looking at the boy who was wrapped like a rice dumpling.

Suddenly, the eyes that had been closed suddenly opened, like a sharp blade breaking out of its sheath.

"Who are you?" Su Yaoguang pointed to the side: "My name is Su Yaoguang, this is my home, you are now in Anning Village. Today I bought you for ten cents. When your injury is healed, you can leave if you want. If you have nowhere to go, we can become brother and sister and call each other brother and sister from now on."

In her previous life, after he was captured, news of his death spread soon after. Some said he was severely tortured, but he refused to submit and accept clients. At that moment, she was shocked.

She was thinking that such a stubborn boy, who would rather die than defend his bottom line, must not be a bad person.

Since she needs someone to comfort her mother, then this person can be her temporary shield. When her mother recovers, she will say that she does not need a man.

"What's your name?"

"..."

"If you don't tell me, I'll give you a name. I'll have to greet you from now on. Should I call you Little Mute?"

"Zhou Wangshu."

"Okay, Wangshu." Su Yaoguang knew that he was very cautious, so she reminded him before doing anything. "You can't move now. I'll feed you medicine."

Zhou Wangshu watched Su Yaoguang feed him medicine with a spoon.

His appearance was different from Xiao Yanci's gentle and elegant appearance. His features were very sculpted, with a high nose bridge, thin rosy lips, and eyes like peach blossoms. There was a red mole at the corner of his eye, and when he looked at her weakly like now, there was always a sense of foxy charm.

No wonder the madam took a fancy to him.

Su Yaoguang bought a dying man for ten cents and hired a doctor for him. The villagers all liked to watch the fun and wanted to know what happened next.

She walked towards the river with the basin in her arms. When the people who were washing clothes saw her appear, they all came over.

"Yaoguang, is the little husband you bought still alive?"

Su Yaoguang smiled and said, "Of course I'm alive. Not only today, but I'll be alive in the future. Uncle Lin came to see me and said I won't die."

"Then you got a great bargain."

A thin figure came over carrying a wash basin.

Su Yaoguang looked at the figure with cold eyes.

Jiang Yihuan.

Zhong Lanhua's daughter.

Her mortal enemy.

Zhong Lanhua and Zhang Zhaodi had been at odds since they were young, and so had she and Jiang Yihuan since they were little. No, it was Jiang Yihuan who was unilaterally plotting against her.

Jiang Yihan was always as fragile as a willow tree. She would faint on the spot if touched even the slightest. In this village, she was the evil person who bullied Jiang Yihan.

She thought she had finally won a game by marrying Xiao Yanci, but in the end she lost completely.

Jiang Yihan came over and deliberately chose the seat next to Su Yaoguang to wash clothes.

"Huanhuan, I heard your family hired a farmhand. He's very handsome and can even read. Is that true?"

Jiang Yihuan said shyly, "Yes, after all, he looked quite pitiful, so my mother took him in."
