Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 218: Chapter 216: Ye Lei Seriously Injured, Ruo Ning Gets Beaten, Sisi’s Heartache

“Ruoning? What exactly happened?”

Yuan Mengbai, who was beside her, asked with disbelief written all over his face.

“I, I just…”

Di Ruoning tried to defend herself, but she was unable to do so. Facing the fierce gazes of the people around her, she couldn’t help but shrink back.

“I just hired a ruffian to teach her a lesson… I, I didn’t know anything, you have to believe me! Those people really weren’t sent by me!”

Di Ruoning couldn’t help but defend herself loudly.

As soon as her words fell, passers-by and the monks who were cleaning the temple grounds all looked over.

Yuan Mengbai, who was beside her, was extremely anxious. He quickly shook Di Ruoning’s body, swearing to get an answer out of her.

“Ruoning! What nonsense are you talking about? How could you have done such a thing? It definitely wasn’t you who did it, right? You didn’t hire anyone to kill anyone, did you? After all, he is your Third Brother, you definitely wouldn’t do something like that, right?”

“No, it wasn’t! I don’t know how so many bandits came. I didn’t call them! I also don’t know that they would go after my Third Brother. It really wasn’t me…”

Di Ruoning kept defending herself.

“You’re just taking advantage of the fact that the bandits are dead and can’t testify against you, so you can say anything you want, right?”

Liu Sisi’s face was extremely pale, and her lips were trembling. It took her quite a while to speak!

In fact, when she had just said that those people were sent by Di Ruoning, she was merely accusing her based on deductions! The conversation that YingEr had overheard initially, and then the deliberate actions that Di Ruoning took afterward left her no choice but to suspect.

Unexpectedly, the truth was like this!

This also made Liu Sisi feel a chill in her heart!

“Good! Well done, Di Ruoning! You’re really capable! You even managed to hire someone to kill your own brother! Is there anything in the world that you can’t do? Ye Lei doesn’t need a sister like you! Get lost! Don’t let me see you again, get out!”

“No, I didn’t! It wasn’t me, it really wasn’t…”p>

Di Ruoning kept denying, trying to reach out and grab Liu Sisi’s hand.

“Get out, get out!” Liu Sisi shouted angrily!

She forcefully pushed Di Ruoning away! She really had enough of her! She looked back at Yuan Mengbai, her eyes filled with hatred and disgust!

“What are you still doing here? Hurry up and take her away! For the sake of her being Ye Lei’s younger sister, I won’t pursue this matter any further!”

“Third, Third Sister-in-Law, I…”p>

Yuan Mengbai quickly hugged the crazed Di Ruoning, stuttering as he tried to defend her.

“Just because I’m not pursuing the matter doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven her. Don’t let her appear in front of us again, or else… next time, don’t blame me for being heartless!”

Liu Sisi, wearing only her inner clothing, stood under the eaves of the wing courtyard.

In the chilling morning wind, she stood there looking distraught with her swollen eyes, unblinkingly staring at Di Ruoning. Her eyes were as dark as a thousand-year-old ancient pool, devoid of any ripple.

“Ruoning, stop making a fuss, let’s go! Let’s go home, let’s go!”

Good-natured Yuan Mengbai’s face turned from pale to blue. He couldn’t bear it anymore. He growled in anger, finally waking the crazed Di Ruoning.

He forcefully grabbed Di Ruoning’s arm and dragged her away from the wing courtyard. The sound of Di Ruoning’s defense could still be heard from afar.

“Believe me! I didn’t mean to harm my Third Brother, those people weren’t called by me! It’s really not me…”p>

This scene made the onlookers gossip even more, shaking their heads while sighing endlessly! A younger sister hiring someone to kill her own brother was indeed a great topic for conversation after dinner!

Liu Sisi closed her eyes in pain and slowly sat on the ground, unable to hold back her tears.

At this point, nothing else mattered!

What’s most important is for Ye Lei to be safe and sound, nothing could be better than that! She hoped he wouldn’t be in any danger.

Thinking of him lying there motionless covered in fresh blood, Liu Sisi couldn’t help but shiver and wrap her arms around herself! Ye Lei, Ye Lei must be fine!

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the wing courtyard finally opened.

Liu Sisi hurriedly got up and rushed over, hesitatingly looking up at the grandmaster who came out, suddenly afraid to speak.

“Grandmaster, my husband, how is he…”

The lead grandmaster performed a Buddhist salute in composure.

“Amitabha. Do not worry, donor! We have treated his wounds and applied the best medicine for blade injuries from our temple. His wounds are mainly in two places. One is the injury inside his hairline, which was very dangerous. Fortunately, it didn’t kill him when he was first injured, and it’s already a great blessing in misfortune.”

Liu Sisi let out a sigh of relief, as long as it’s not a serious matter!

“In addition, his back was scraped to a bloody mess, and we have applied medicine to it one by one. He has two broken ribs and should avoid moving as much as possible for a short time. As for the rest, it depends on his fate! May the Buddha bless him, Amitabha!”

“Thank you, Grandmaster! Thank you, Grandmaster… I will definitely donate more incense oil money! When my husband’s wounds heal, I will come back to the Zen temple to fulfill my vow and kowtow in gratitude to all the grandmasters!”

Liu Sisi sincerely thanked them.

If it weren’t for the kindness of these grandmasters, Ye Lei’s situation might have been really dangerous!

“Don’t mention thanks! After all, it was the injury medicine you initially gave him that played a major role. Otherwise, he might not have held on until we treated him. Amitabha.”

“Grandmaster is too kind, thank you, and sorry for the trouble,” Liu Sisi thanked them again.

The “injury medicine” the Grandmaster mentioned, was naturally the medicine given by that man in black!

She pretended to throw away the injury medicine, but in reality, what she threw away was nothing more than a broken stone. The real injury medicine had already been hidden by her.

She won’t put Di Yelei’s life at risk and vent her anger on others!

So as soon as she saw an opportunity, she fed the injury medicine to Di Yelei.

If the man in black really wanted to harm Di Yelei, under that situation, he could have easily killed him with a palm strike, let alone give him injury medicine.

This shows that her initial feeling was correct. The man didn’t want to take the lives of the two, but only to severely teach Di Yelei a lesson. Meanwhile, it indirectly implies that the man should be someone familiar with them!

But she doesn’t really know that man!

Could it be… that the man in black had a grudge with Di Yelei?

After the several grandmasters left, Liu Sisi hurriedly rushed into the inner room.

Inside, Di Yelei was lying quietly on the bed, with his head tilted and sleeping unconsciously. It seemed that even in his sleep, he was very restless, frowning tightly. His face was as pale as gold paper, with a grayish cast, and his head, body, and both hands were wrapped in gauze. The only parts left exposed were his limbs.

She sat on the edge of the bed with great care, unable to resist reaching out and gently stroking his face while feeling his familiar aura.

“Ye Lei! Ye Lei, wake up! Wake up, Ye Lei, it’s Sisi, your Sisi…”

She called him softly, tears streaming down her face without stopping.

His black stubble was rough and prickly against her hand, making his face look even worse. She couldn’t help but lower her head and press her face against his, crying silently.
