Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

I just wonder who will get the empty red brick house next to Tian Dahua's? Could they build another house to the right of their brick house to use as a warehouse and expand the kitchen?

As she was thinking, she didn't notice the roadside and almost bumped into two people who were engrossed in their work.

Upon closer inspection, the people rake-drying hops under the scorching sun were none other than Zhang Yan and Chen Weidong. Had these two been released from prison?

The two of them naturally saw her as well.

Zhang Yan stared intently at the piece of cured meat and the basket of eggs in Su Wanqing's hand, her eyes practically spitting fire with jealousy. She tugged at Chen Weidong's sleeve beside her.

"Chen Zhiqing, look! It's that bitch Su Wanqing! We're starving, toiling away in the police station, doing hard labor, while she's enjoying a life of luxury outside! She must have been the one who reported us!"

She glanced around menacingly, and seeing that no one was around for the time being, she urged, "Since it's just the three of us here, why don't we..."

It turned out that after Zhang Yan and Chen Weidong were arrested that day, they were interrogated separately for several days.

Zhang Yan's main crime was escaping from the labor camp; Chen Weidong wasn't even an accomplice of his uncle. Therefore, after being detained for more than ten days and forced to clean toilets and move bricks every day, enduring a lot of hardship, the two were released this morning and immediately sent to this hop field for "labor reform."

As for Chen Mingda? I heard that not only has he been stripped of all his positions, but his crimes of embezzlement and resale are so serious that he may very well face execution!

The corps is currently busy harvesting hops, and the task of turning over and drying these few acres of land has gloriously fallen to them.

Chen Weidong, pampered since childhood, had never experienced such hardship. He dawdled all morning and didn't get much done. Seeing that everyone else had gone home for lunch, the supervising officer left with the words, "No food if you don't finish your work." The two were exhausted, hungry, and full of resentment.

Seeing Su Wanqing, who was even fairer and rosier than before and carrying nice things, Chen Weidong's resentment, jealousy, and hatred were instantly ignited, along with the shame and indignation that his most wretched and pathetic state had been seen by her.

He clenched his fists, a ferocious smile twisting his face, and approached Su Wanqing step by step: "Su Wanqing...you've really ruined me! I never imagined you, woman, could be so vicious. Do you know? My status as a sent-down youth has been completely ruined here by that old bastard Li Aiguo! He said I'd never be able to go back to the city! Was it you who whispered in his ear? Hmm? Wanting me, Chen Weidong, to rot in this godforsaken place?"

He recalled his past glory and compared it to his current situation. Coupled with his father's letter saying that he had severed ties with him and was left to fend for himself, his hatred grew even stronger.

Su Wanqing frowned as she looked at the undisguised violence in Chen Weidong's eyes.

In the original story, Chen Weidong was abusive, constantly beating and verbally abusing the original owner after marriage. Now, judging from this situation, it seems he couldn't resist wanting to hit her? Moreover, in this era, as long as a fight doesn't escalate, the handling of such incidents is often quite flexible, especially for someone like Chen Weidong who is undergoing reformation. If he hit her, he'd probably just get a few words of criticism and education?

She raised an eyebrow. "What, Chen Weidong, you want to fight? Do you know the consequences of assaulting someone without cause?"

"Consequences? Hahaha!" Chen Weidong spat as if he had heard a joke. "What consequences could there be? At worst, I'll lock you up for a few days and pay you some money! Su Wanqing, don't think you're so great just because you have Zhou Yanshen and Li Aiguo backing you up! Today, I'm going to show you what's what!" He had clearly figured out the rules of the place and was fearless.

Zhang Yan watched from the side, her hands trembling with excitement, silently praying: Hit her! Hit her now! It would be best to slash her face and break her legs! Let's see how she seduces men and how arrogant she can be then!

Su Wanqing nodded, as if confirming something. "Oh, so that means the consequences of hitting someone aren't serious, at most it's just a fight. Then—self-defense, even if it's a little excessive, shouldn't be a big problem, right? It's okay, if you get hurt, we can go to the clinic, anyway, I have a pretty good supply of medicine."

Chen Weidong was blinded by rage and a twisted excitement. With a strange cry, he lunged at Su Wanqing, swinging his fists! He was so excited that he could already see the woman kneeling on the ground begging for mercy after he beat her.

Su Wanqing had never learned martial arts. Although she had more strength than an ordinary person after drinking the spiritual spring, it was still unwise for her to confront a crazed adult man head-on.

She gently and steadily placed the basket of cured meat and eggs she was carrying on the dry ground beside her—these were good things, and she couldn't let them go to waste.

Then, just as Chen Weidong rushed to within half a meter of her and his fist was about to fall, she flipped her wrist, her fingertips flashing with a cold light, and two slender silver needles shot out silently, accurately piercing a certain acupoint on Chen Weidong's neck and under his ribs!

Chen Weidong felt a numbness in his body, and half of his body instantly lost strength. His forward momentum came to an abrupt halt, and he lost his balance, falling flat on his face with a "thud".

"Ah!" He struggled to get up, but found that half of his body was completely unresponsive, and he could only writhe in vain like a maggot.

Su Wanqing patted non-existent dust off her hands and slowly walked up to Zhang Yan, who was stunned.

Zhang Yan retreated in shock: "You...you stay away! What did you do to him?! Don't come any closer!" What just happened? Why did Chen Weidong suddenly collapse? Is Su Wanqing a monster?!

Ignoring her screams, Su Wanqing snatched the long twig Zhang Yan was using to rake hops. The twig was tough, about the thickness of a thumb, and smooth to handle.

She turned around and walked back to Chen Weidong, who was lying on the ground struggling.

There are techniques to hitting someone.

You shouldn't hit the head, back of the neck, spine, lower back, or kidneys, as these areas can easily cause permanent damage. She's a doctor; she has to be careful with how much she hits someone.

She vigorously whipped Chen Weidong's outer thighs, outer arms, buttocks, and other areas.

"Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!"

A crisp, loud cracking sound immediately rang out across the open fields, accompanied by the sharp whistling of branches slicing through the air.

Hitting someone with these tree branches is incredibly painful; the thinner the branch, the more it hurts.

"Ah—! Su Wanqing! You vicious woman! What have you done to me?! Ah! It hurts! Stop! Stop it right now!"

Chen Weidong's pig-like screams instantly pierced the sky. The tree branch whipped him, causing both pain and a burning sensation, leaving a red, swollen welt without drawing blood, yet the pain was excruciating.

Su Wanqing never touched a spot more than three times, lest the skin be torn open and look too terrible, and she would have to use more medicine.

As she slowly and methodically whipped herself, she asked in an infuriating tone:

"What did you just say? Speak louder, I didn't hear you? You want to hit me, huh? Huh? Why don't you get up and hit me then? Why are you lying there motionless? Is the ground more comfortable?"
