Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law

In this town, there was only one person he had managed to offend: Yuan Wenkang.

It couldn't be anyone else. As for Cai Qiang, it wasn't even worth considering. If Cai Qiang still dared to cross him now, he would have to be completely out of his mind.

With this thought, Liu Ergou chuckled and shook his head. He didn't take Yuan Wenkang's troublemaking to heart at all. The man's methods were simply too crude. There was nothing more to be said. He would just deal with whatever came his way.

With Liu Yunxi in tow, he soon arrived at the fertilizer store. Following the list his sister-in-law had given him, Liu Ergou quickly bought everything and hired a truck to transport the fertilizer back.

Having scored such a great deal today, Liu Ergou had wanted to take Liu Yunxi for a walk around town and buy her a couple of new outfits. But no matter what he said, Liu Yunxi flatly refused. In the end, with no other choice, he had to take her back to the village in the same truck carrying the fertilizer.

On the way, the two sat in the truck. As they watched the scenery flash by the window, they began to chat. Starting with daily trifles, their conversation eventually drifted to the topic of Liu Yunxi having studied law.

Just then, Liu Ergou seemed to remember something. He asked abruptly, "Hey, Yun Xi, I just thought of something."

"I remember you studied law, so you must have plenty of solutions. Help me think of something!"

Then, Liu Ergou briefly described to Liu Yunxi how Xiaorou had been sold by her mother, Zhang Cuifen, to a man named Er Lu for a bride price of 400,000 yuan.

After finishing the story, Liu Ergou couldn't help but sigh.

"Sigh, how should I put this..."

"Xiaorou is the complete victim here; she's suffering from a disaster that came out of nowhere! Zhang Cuifen sold her own daughter just to pay off her debts. She's not human!"

"I want to get justice for Xiaorou, but the problem is Zhang Cuifen has already spent the money. Even if we killed her, she couldn't possibly produce it! What do you think we should do?"

Seeing the troubled look on Liu Ergou's face, Liu Yunxi smiled. "I thought it was something serious, but it's just this! I can't speak for others, but for me, this isn't a big problem at all! It's right up my alley. I can solve it!"

She paused for a moment before continuing, "It's not difficult to resolve. First of all, Xiaorou was an unwitting party; the whole affair has everything to do with Zhang Cuifen. This kind of thing has appeared in past legal cases. The responsibility lies entirely with Zhang Cuifen, and she alone must repay the 400,000-yuan debt!"

Hearing Liu Yunxi's words, Liu Ergou's eyes lit up.

Tomorrow is the last day, and Er Lu is supposed to take Xiaorou home. I've been worrying myself sick over this, even considering using my last resort or paying the money myself. But unexpectedly, Liu Yunxi actually has a solution! It might not be the perfect plan, but at least it tackles the root of the problem. I'm sure that saddling Zhang Cuifen with a 400,000-yuan debt will be enough to keep that old woman quiet for a while.

Still, Liu Ergou was a little skeptical and asked tentatively, "Yun Xi, are you really not pulling my leg? Is what you're saying true?"

Seeing him doubt her, Liu Yunxi huffed in annoyance. With a wave of her little hand, she said, "Hmph, why would I, a law student, lie to you? If you don't believe me, bring Xiaorou and the others to the village committee tomorrow morning. I'll handle this matter!"

As she spoke, her spirits rose. "Heh heh… I was just wondering what I'd do now that I'm in the village, and a case falls right into my lap!"

Seeing Liu Yunxi looking so confident and righteous, Liu Ergou chose to believe her.

"Okay, Yun Xi, we'll do as you say! I'll go tell Xiaorou right away. I'll be relying on you, then!"

Hearing this, Liu Yunxi smiled and nodded. "It's no trouble at all!"

However, she suddenly changed her tone. "But, Er Gou, since I'm helping you solve such an important problem, shouldn't you show your gratitude with some concrete action?"

Liu Ergou blinked, looking at her.

Show my gratitude with concrete action? This…

Liu Ergou was puzzled, unsure how he should thank her. After a moment's thought, he said tentatively, "How about this… I give you a kiss?"

The moment the words left his mouth, Liu Yunxi's face flushed red at a visible pace, turning as crimson as an apple in an instant.

"Ah! You're awful!" she said with annoyance, lightly swatting his chest with her small hand.

"Who wants your kiss!"

After saying that, she buried her head in her arms, not giving Liu Ergou another chance to speak. Seeing this, Liu Ergou couldn't help but burst out laughing. A flustered Liu Yunxi was truly adorable.

Soon, the truck brought the two of them and the fertilizer back to Fengzhu Village. After getting off, Liu Yunxi went to busy herself with her own affairs. Meanwhile, Liu Ergou started shouldering the bags of fertilizer, unloading them all and taking them into his house.

When Xu Yulan saw all the fertilizer, a pained look crossed her face. "Er Gou, hiring this truck must have been expensive! You…"

Liu Ergou cut her off before she could finish. "It's fine, Sister-in-law. I made a fortune out in town today. Don't worry about the truck. I'll have all this fertilizer moved inside in no time!"

With that, he went back to work. It wasn't long before the job was done.

It was only four or five in the afternoon and still light out, but Xu Yulan had already prepared dinner. Liu Ergou felt a bit resigned about eating so early.

If I eat now, I'll just wake up hungry in the middle of the night. But it's a kind gesture from my sister-in-law, so I can't refuse.

With that in mind, Liu Ergou began to dig in.

Soon, dinner was over. As time passed, evening fell.

Just as Liu Ergou was getting ready for bed, he suddenly realized he'd forgotten the most important thing: he needed to tell Xiaorou to go to the village committee tomorrow morning to deal with the situation with Er Lu
