Old Man Zhao, the legendary healer of Xinghua Village!

Compared to Zhao Dazhu, Wang Jianguo is simply a beast.

As Li Yujiao thought about it, her heart warmed. She found a comfortable spot to lean against Zhao Dazhu and pretended to be asleep with her eyes closed.

Before you know it, it's morning.

As soon as Zhao Dazhu opened his eyes, he saw that Li Yujiao had already gotten up and was sweeping the floor with a broom.

She bent down and carefully cleaned every corner of the room, even under the bed.

Zhao Dazhu chuckled and asked, "What are we having for breakfast?"

"What do you want to eat?" Li Yujiao asked irritably.

"I'll eat whatever you make. I love anything you make," Zhao Dazhu said.

"loquacious."

Li Yujiao said coquettishly, her blush deepening.

Although she knew that Zhao Dazhu was just saying nice things to make her happy, she still felt secretly pleased and even had a sense of happiness.

After sweeping the floor, Li Yujiao went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. The clanging of pots and pans echoed from the kitchen, and Zhao Dazhu, who was washing his face, could hear her coughing.

Li Yujiao's cough symptoms seem to be more severe than last night. It seems I have to hurry and go to the back mountain to find cough medicine after breakfast.

Zhao Dazhu thought to himself, then rubbed his face haphazardly a few times before picking up a towel to wipe the water droplets away.

As for cough suppressant, it is not a medicine, but a very common herb that grows on the back mountain.

Nobody knows the real name of this herb; people in this area just call it cough suppressant.

Anyone who has a cough should go to the back mountain and get some cough medicine to make a decoction and take it. It works very quickly.

So after finishing breakfast, Zhao Dazhu put a plastic bag in his pocket and set off.

This wasn't Zhao Dazhu's first time coming up the back mountain; he knew the path up the mountain like the back of his hand. Plus, it was only a little past nine in the morning, so it wasn't very hot yet.

So he walked swiftly and quickly reached the mountainside.

After searching for only half an hour, Zhao Dazhu found a clump of cough-relieving herbs growing on the edge of a cliff.

He then carefully approached and reached for the cough-relieving herbs little by little, plucking them one by one and stuffing them all into a plastic bag.

Zhao Dazhu looked into the valley and immediately felt dizzy.

The valley behind the mountain is very deep, with a drop of more than 200 meters. If you accidentally fall from here, you will definitely die.

A few years ago, a villager from Xinghua Village went up the mountain to collect herbs. He accidentally fell into a valley and died. The villagers searched the valley for three days and three nights but could not find his remains.

If his companions hadn't returned to the village to report the news, the villagers might never have known how that unfortunate fellow had died.

After glancing at the valley twice more, Zhao Dazhu slowly retreated, afraid that the soil beneath his feet would collapse.

Just then, a woman's cries came from afar.

"Village chief, please don't do this. I have a husband, I can't do this kind of thing with you..."

"Please, please let me go. I'll do anything you want, except this..."

"Village chief, please have mercy! If Hei Zi finds out I'm doing this with another man, he'll beat me to death..."

Zhao Dazhu was stunned.

Isn't that Chen Xiuling's voice?

After a slight hesitation, Zhao Dazhu rolled up the plastic bag containing the cough-relieving herbs into a ball and stuffed it into his pocket, then hurried off toward the direction from which the sound came.

Upon arriving at the destination, Zhao Dazhu hid behind a tree and peered around, observing the surroundings.

Not far from the edge of the cliff, beside a large rock, a strong man in his thirties was seen roughly pinning a young woman in her late twenties to the ground.

The woman was Chen Xiuling from Xinghua Village, and the man was none other than the village chief, Wang Jianguo!

Wang Jianguo, that bastard, was like a mad beast at this moment. He used both hands to tear Chen Xiuling's white dress with red flowers open with ease.

"Stop resisting, Chen Xiuling. You can't fight city hall. Just give in to me!" Wang Jianguo said with a sneer.

Chen Xiuling's face was covered in tears as she sobbed, "Village chief, we really can't do this! I have a man. You raped me, how am I supposed to live..."

"If you don't tell and I don't tell, who will know that you did this kind of thing with me?" Wang Jianguo said bluntly.

"But nothing stays hidden forever..."

Before Chen Xiuling could finish speaking, Wang Jianguo slapped her across the face.

Snapped!

A crisp slap rang out, and Chen Xiuling was completely stunned by Wang Jianguo's blow.

"Chen Xiuling, let me tell you, I'm the village chief of Xinghua Village. I'm doing this to you now because I'm giving you face. Don't push your luck, you slut!" Wang Jianguo said viciously, scaring Chen Xiuling so much that she dared not cry anymore, but even more crystal tears flowed down her face.

Wang Jianguo added, "And I won't mistreat you. As long as you make me comfortable now, I'll give you whatever you want!"

Chen Xiuling felt extremely wronged and said pitifully, "You clearly have a wife..."
