If you don't consummate the marriage for three years and then marry a successful educated youth

"That's strange. Who's talking about me again? Could it be Yao Yao? That makes sense. She probably misses me. I'll go down the mountain first thing tomorrow morning and give her this venison to help her recover."

Thinking of this, Jiang Lie felt a surge of anticipation. He glanced at the medicinal herbs in the basket and smiled, wanting to give his wife a surprise.

A pig-like scream came from the courtyard in the morning. People passing by on their way to work in the fields stopped in their tracks and looked curiously in the direction of the courtyard: "What are they treating? The screams are so creepy."

"You bet it is. It looks like a pig being slaughtered. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were killing someone. Why don't we go take a look?"

"Okay, but hurry up, the team leader is waiting on the edge of the field. If you're late, you'll get a beating."

Lin Fengjiao yelled, "Wen Yao, be gentle! It hurts! This is my face, my flesh! Can't you be a little gentler? Are you trying to kill me?"

Wen Yao sighed and said patiently, "Just bear with it. If this abscess isn't cleaned properly, the treatment will take longer and you'll suffer even more. It'll be over soon, so stop yelling."

"Your shouting is making people feel terrible. If outsiders hear it, they'll think I did something to you."

"...I...I wanted to control it, but it hurt too much."

Ten minutes later.

"It's all taken care of. Go home now. We'll come back for another treatment this evening. The inflammation is already subsiding. Just come back for another treatment tomorrow, and we can focus on treating the bulge on the outside."

Lin Fengjiao calculated that there were still three more times. She could bear it a little longer. Each time, she felt better than before and no longer had a low-grade fever.

Somewhat awkwardly, she said, "Okay, I understand. I'll come again this afternoon. Thank you for your help."

"fine."

Wen Yao rinsed the chair as before, which made Lin Fengjiao uncomfortable: "Am I that dirty? Do you have to rinse it so thoroughly and wipe it with alcohol?"

"Yes, what came off was pus and blood. This chair isn't just for one patient like you. If it's not cleaned and disinfected thoroughly, how will the next patient lie down?"

"As doctors, we must ensure that disinfection is done properly, otherwise we will harm patients. We cannot be careless."

Jiang Baozhu chimed in, "That's right, my sister-in-law treats everyone equally, she's not targeting you at all. I was lying here getting my acne treated before, and I got the same thing."

"Besides, if my sister-in-law really didn't disinfect properly, would you be willing to lie on it? If it were covered in a patient's pus and blood, you would have run away long ago."

Feeling wronged, Lin Fengjiao said awkwardly, "I... I was just saying it casually, let's see how seriously you take it."

"You just want to see me unhappy, humph. It's a good thing I didn't ask you to help me clean my wound today, otherwise you would have done something terrible to me. You've always disliked me, your sister-in-law."

Jiang Baozhu was furious, hands on her hips: "Pah! I really don't know where you got your shamelessness from. What are you thinking? Who do you think you are as my sister-in-law? I don't have a sister-in-law like you."

"My sister-in-law only has Sister Wen, so be careful not to say the wrong thing in the future. If my sister-in-law gets angry, I won't let you off the hook."

"You, you..."

The door was pushed open, and Jiang Lie's deep voice came through: "Wife, I'm back. Let's see what goodies I brought you."

When she looked up, all three pairs of eyes turned to look at her. Wen Yao smiled and nodded, continuing to tidy up the chair, otherwise it would be even more difficult to remove the blood once it dried.

Seeing this, Jiang Baozhu offered, "Sister-in-law, you go to my brother's place. I'll take care of the washing up. I can do it."

"Alright, thank you for your hard work, Baozhu."

"It's alright, it's alright. You two miss each other terribly if you don't see each other for a day, then my brother must miss you too. Go see what good things he brought, hehe."

As she spoke, she glanced at Lin Fengjiao and pouted, "Can't you be a little more considerate? Your treatment is over this morning, why aren't you leaving? Do you feel good watching people show off their love here?"

Lin Fengjiao glared at him without saying a word, then looked at the deer on the ground, swallowed hard, and felt a little hungry. She loved eating this nourishing venison.

In the past, if Jiang Lie caught venison, she would always save the tenderest piece from the belly for herself. She hadn't eaten it in a long time, and now that she had it, she was really craving it.

Unable to resist, he walked over and asked, "Jiang Lie, may I buy a piece of venison from you?"

"You know, I used to love eating the tender belly meat of this venison. You used to always save it for me. Now I'll buy a piece of this meat from you, and you can give me anything in return."

Jiang, the headhunter, didn't even look up, refusing expressionlessly: "Not for sale. This venison belly meat is the best; I naturally want to use it to nourish my wife. I don't sell it to outsiders."

Lin Fengjiao felt humiliated and her face darkened: "But this venison belly weighs several pounds. What's wrong with selling me just one pound?"

"I'm going to divide this meat into three portions: one for my mother, one for my sister to eat to nourish her body, and one for my wife. If there's any left over, we can sell it."

"Besides, do I look like I'm short of money? Why should I sell you that pound of the tenderest meat?"

"How could you do this? You always saved these for me..."

As Jiang Baozhu scrubbed the chair, she pouted and said irritably, "Some people just have no self-awareness at all. When my older brother hunts, he naturally leaves meat for his wife."

"Some people still insist on snatching it, but can they even compete? The other party won't sell it, so why are you so shameless as to want to buy it? If they won't sell or exchange it, you should go back now."

"Aunt Lan, please take your daughter with you."

Zhang Lan looked a little embarrassed: "Ahem, Fengjiao, let's go home. We need to come back this afternoon to treat our wounds. Don't linger here, come with me."

Lin Fengjiao saw Jiang Lie skinning a deer with a knife and speaking so gently to Wen Yao, something he used to do only to her. Seeing it with her own eyes now made her feel terrible.

I took my daughter out, and saw her looking back with red eyes.

Helpless, he could only quicken his pace, pulling his daughter toward home, and patiently said, "Honey, you and he are divorced now, so it doesn't really matter anymore. If he has something good, he'll definitely give it to his wife."

"As you can see, the young couple has a very good relationship, and Jiang Lie smiles more than before, which is great. It would be wonderful if you could both find happiness after your divorce."

Lin Fengjiao murmured, "But I'm not happy. How can they be so happy? He's never smiled at me with such joy."

Zhang Lan didn't hear clearly and asked again, "Daughter, what did you just say? Speak louder, I didn't hear you."

"It's nothing, I just wanted to eat venison. If he doesn't want to sell it to me, fine. He's such a cheapskate. No wonder he doesn't have any kids yet, even though he got married more than a month before me."

"Shh, keep your voice down. You need to watch your mouth. Don't forget you still need someone to fix your face. Don't say anything offensive. Let's go home."
