Chapter 1212: Chapter 1212
"This morning, Liu Xiaocui, who was locked at home, somehow got in touch with that Little Huang Mao. The two of them sneaked out of the house before dawn, intending to elope under the cover of darkness. Later, they were discovered by Boss Liu, who chased them with some men. Chased back and forth, the two were forced up the mountain and even thought of resisting by death, planning to jump off a cliff to die for love. However, before they reached the top, Liu Xiaocui was bitten by a snake. Now she’s been brought back by Boss Liu."
Hu Zhiming gave a rough recount of the events.
"She was bitten by a snake, why can’t they just take her to the hospital? Why did they come to me?"
Lin Yifan still appeared a bit puzzled.
"The trouble is, he didn’t take her to the hospital because the snake bit Xiao Cui on the inside of her thigh, a very sensitive spot. If they went to the hospital, how would this girl get married in the future? While they hesitated, Old Li appeared, and the couple trusted his words, using his herbs to heal her. But just relying on his little tricks, it was of no use. Counting the time, she’s probably not going to make it."
Hu Zhiming sneered as he smoked.
A few days ago, they opposed him; now it seems they received due payback for their wrongs.
But Lin Yifan couldn’t help but furrow his brow.
"Hu, this is a matter of life and death, not a joke. I have to go over there."
As he spoke, he was about to grab his medical kit, but Hu Zhiming stopped him.
"I knew you’d soften up, jumping to help once you found out. But haven’t you thought about how Boss Liu treated you? You think going now is reciprocating virtue for grudges? That’s asking for trouble. Who knows how they’ll mock you? Doctors don’t knock on doors; the Tao is not lightly revealed. You have to sit at home and wait for them to come. Plus, if Boss Liu doesn’t come, you absolutely can’t go, or else he’ll trample all over you in the future."
These words made Lin Yifan loosen his grip on the medical kit.
Though Xu Fengxian found Hu Zhiming’s rationale reasonable, she still thought it was a bit harsh.
"Boss Liu isn’t worth much, but that girl Xiao Cui is both pretty and kind-hearted. Although I’m not on speaking terms with the Liu Family, that little girl is an exception—every time she sees me, she calls me sister-in-law sweetly. If something happens to her, I’d feel horrible."
Seeing their pained expressions, Hu Zhiming laughed.
"Without a thunderous approach, where does the kind heart of a Bodhisattva come from? When Liu the Sixth bullied you, he didn’t plan to spare you. If we don’t deal with Boss Liu now, how will Yifan continue in the village? Boss Liu is practically just a barking dog. If we don’t strike hard, who knows what mischief those behind him might pull."
"This is also Uncle’s intention, isn’t it?"
Lin Yifan pondered, looking at Hu Zhiming.
He did not confirm, merely smiled while smoking a cigarette.
It was apparent that his uncle had sent him over.
Since that was the case, Lin Yifan decided to ignore it and busied himself with his own affairs.
About half an hour later, around mealtime, a motorcycle hurriedly stopped at the gate.
It was Li Guixiang, Boss Liu’s wife, with an anxious expression. She pushed open the wooden door.
However, she was stopped by Hu Zhiming, who was sitting by the door.
"What a wind could have blown Aunt Liu over here, do come and sit for a while."
With his legs crossed, he blocked the path leading further into the house.
"My Xiao Cui was bitten by a snake, now she’s burning up with a high fever, speaking deliriously and on the brink of death. I’ve come to get Yifan to take a look."
Crying, sweating all over, Li Guixiang tried to enter but was blocked by Hu Zhiming’s legs.
Adjusting his glasses, he said sarcastically, "Aunt Liu, this clinic hasn’t opened for business, can’t treat illnesses. Didn’t you get along well with Old Li? Go quickly and have him check it out. Yifan’s busy inside and can’t come out."
"If it weren’t for that Old Li, Xiao Cui wouldn’t have ended up like this. Brother Hu, let me in quickly to find Lin Yifan and save a life."
Li Guixiang shivered with anger as she spoke.
"Aunt Liu, though Yifan plans to open a clinic, it isn’t operational yet. Moreover, he doesn’t hold any official position in the village, not obliged to do such things. If Old Li can’t, find a way to take her to the County Hospital."
"Brother Hu, I know my man is no good, but for the sake of human life, you must not ignore this matter."
Li Guixiang tried to force her way in again, but this time Hu Zhiming stood up.
Smiling, he looked at Li Guixiang.
"Aunt Liu, you can come in if you want, but once you walk through this door, you can’t expect a second chance. Boss Liu’s face, truly precious."
His words left Li Guixiang frozen at the doorway.
Realizing the situation, she turned and left.
Riding her motorcycle back home at full speed, as she entered the yard, Boss Liu was already coming up to her.
"Well? Did you get him?"
Seeing nothing behind Li Guixiang, not a sign of Lin Yifan following.
"Get your grandmother’s leg..."
Unexpectedly, Li Guixiang swung her arm wide and slapped him hard.
"You’ve offended everyone. Now you hide behind a woman when you need favors. What kind of coward are you? You want to save face, right? Fine, if Xiao Cui dies, then I won’t live. Today I’ll split you, and our family of three will meet on Huangquan Road."
Northeast women, when they go mad, they really go off.
Grabbing a nearby machete, she was ready to strike.
Fortunately, someone beside her quickly held her back.
"Boss Liu, you bastard, you’ve killed my daughter... If I don’t split you today... I’ll chop you tomorrow!"
Li Guixiang’s curses drew the neighbors out to watch.
With a flushed face and thick neck, Boss Liu glanced down, not daring to say a word.
But Old Li stuck his neck out and walked over.
"Boss Liu, it’s just a pit viper; by right, my medicine should suffice. Even if that kid Lin came, it might be useless. I think this isn’t normal. Perhaps Xiao Cui offended a Snake Immortal, so why not let me set up an altar to communicate with the mountain’s Snake Immortals..."
Before the words were fully spoken, a violent gust came.
Boss Liu’s slap landed hard on Old Li’s face.
Knocking the skinny man flat to the ground.
"You old bastard, trying to swindle me out of money! Just you wait, if Xiao Cui doesn’t make it, I’ll chop you to pieces!"
With bloodshot eyes, Boss Liu furiously supported his motorcycle.
Revving the throttle, the motorcycle roared and sped towards the threshing ground.
The two of them, they only have this one daughter.
If something happens to her, then this family would be finished.
About ten minutes later, the motorcycle stopped at the threshing ground.
Boss Liu jumped off and pushed open the clinic door.
Glancing at Hu Zhiming’s faint smirk, he peeked into the inner room.
Biting his teeth, Boss Liu knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Yifan, it’s your uncle who has wronged you, I beg you, save my daughter’s life. I’m kowtowing to you!"
