In the following days, Ye Ling didn’t receive any new updates from Lin Fang’s side.
She knew that Min Nan wouldn’t be able to find any evidence.
The opponent’s plan this time was extremely well-executed, leaving no obvious traces. Even if Min Nan and Dai Wei knew that Lin Fang was behind the attack, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to her.
Ye Ling took a few days to rest, and her injuries were mostly healed. However, the wound on her leg was more severe, and she would sometimes experience pain if she stood for too long.
On this day, Aunt Hua from next door came to visit the Wan family. Seeing that Ye Ling’s injuries were almost invisible, she exclaimed, “Lingling truly lives up to being a doctor. In just a few days, your injuries are completely healed.”
The big yellow dog had also come with Auntie Hua. It was probably because it had participated in the search for Ye Ling that day and was very familiar with Ye Ling’s scent. Therefore, when it saw Ye Ling, it ran to Ye Ling’s leg and rubbed against it.
Ye Ling had already learned about the events of that day from Wan Xue’s account. In a way, she had to thank the big yellow dog for aiding in her rescue. Otherwise, she didn’t know when she would have been found.
She rubbed the big yellow dog’s head. The dog closed its eyes contentedly, appearing to have grown fonder of Ye Ling. It then lay down comfortably at her feet, staying still.
Sun Li brought Aunt Hua a glass of water, and they both sat down. While chatting, Aunt Hua remembered something and asked, “Sister Li, in a few days, the team for the autumn tea leaves harvest will come to the village to recruit workers. Are you planning to join?”
Sun Li shook her head. “No, you can go with them this year.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling was briefly taken aback.
She had lived in the countryside for many years in her previous life, so she was no stranger to picking autumn tea leaves.
Every spring and autumn, when tea leaves in the southern regions matured, a large workforce was needed to pick them. Local workers were often insufficient, leading to the recruitment of individuals from other areas. Typically, these workers were provided with meals, accommodations, and even transportation expenses. The nimble woman could earn a substantial amount of money from such trips.
In her past life, Ye Ling had also considered joining the autumn tea leaves picking to earn money. However, numerous household responsibilities prevented her from doing so. Her mother-in-law, Lin Fang, shirked all responsibilities, leaving Ye Ling to handle cooking, laundry, cleaning, and other chores. She scarcely had any free time throughout the day.
Hearing Sun Li decline the invitation to join Aunt Hua in autumn tea leaves picking, Ye Ling was concerned that Sun Li might be declining because of her. She promptly interjected, “Auntie Sun, you used to go autumn tea leaves picking with Auntie Hua, right? Why aren’t you going this year? You don’t have to worry about me. My injuries are completely healed. I can cook too. If you’re going to autumn tea leaves picking, then I’ll take care of Brother Wanhai and the others’ meals during this time. Please go without any concerns.”
Sun Li hastened to reply, “What are you talking about? I’m just not in the mood to go this year. It’s exhausting, especially during this season with the harsh sun…”
Ye Ling blinked and persisted, “Auntie Sun, I know you’re worried about me, but I really can take care of myself!”
After a while, Sun Li sighed and smiled helplessly at Aunt Hua, “This child is really considerate.”
Aunt Hua chuckled. “Then come with me. When you come back, buy some beautiful floral fabric for Lingling and make her some lovely clothes.”
Under Ye Ling’s persuasion, Sun Li dropped her resistance and decided to accompany Aunt Hua to the south for the autumn tea leaves harvest.
A few days later, Sun Li departed with the recruitment team. Before leaving, she specifically advised Ye Ling, “Lingling, you don’t have to cook anything good for them. They are just rough men, you can just fool them. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Ye Ling found this quite amusing. Auntie Sun was quite dismissive of her boys.
“It’s alright, Auntie Sun. I need to eat too. Don’t worry, I won’t overexert myself. ”
When Sun Li heard this, she felt that it made sense, so she didn’t say anything more. She turned around and instructed Wan Hai and the others to take care of all the housework in the house. They must not let Ye Ling do chores like sweeping the floor and washing the dishes. If they dared to let Ye Ling do housework or suffer any grievances, she would come back and beat them to death.
Though Wan Feng hadn’t planned on letting Ye Ling do housework, he still felt a bit wrong when he heard his mother’s fierce words toward his brothers. He complained, “Mom, who’s your biological child?”
Sun Li paid no attention to Wan Feng and left with her bag.
In the evening, when Min Nan returned, he saw Ye Ling bustling around in the kitchen..
