Chapter 57: Carpenter Liu Kui

Su Li turned around and saw a box smashed behind her. The appearance of the box was so familiar.
Box, her box!!
Su Li suppressed her ecstasy and picked up the box. She opened the box excitedly. Everything inside was there.
Su Li hugged the box and kissed it fervently, not minding that it was covered in dust.
“I didn’t expect you guys to accompany me here. I’ll definitely treat you guys well in the future.
With these tools, He Yufeng’s surgery would be much simpler.
Su Li hugged the box and fell asleep happily. This was even happier than winning five million dollars.
The next day, a scream pierced the sky.
Madam Luo panicked and said, “My face, my face, why is my body rotten?
Help, help!”
Su Li smiled meaningfully when she heard this scream.
After breakfast, she said to He Yufeng, “I’m going to town today.”
He Yufeng knew that she was planning to call the doctor back. He wanted to tell her to forget it, but he could not bear to give up the slightest chance to stand up.
“You, be careful on the way!” He Yufeng reminded her dryly.
Su Li nodded and said, “Got it.”
When they arrived at the village entrance, there were already a few people sitting on Old Zhao’s ox cart. Everyone was discussing about Madam Luo.
“Have you heard? A bunch of bumps grew on Madam Luo’s face overnight. Even on her body!”
“That’s right, that looks scary. I wonder if it’ll be contagious!”
“Just stay away from her. She wanted to ride the ox cart with us just now. Fortunately, Old Zhao rejected her. If he had asked Madam Luo to ride the ox cart, I wouldn’t have taken it. I would rather walk!”
“That’s right. I’d rather walk. What if I fall sick if I stay with Madam Luo?”
“That’s right!”
When Old Zhao saw Su Li coming over, his eyes lit up. “Mother of Dahu, are you taking the car?”
Su Li nodded, but she corrected Old Zhao. “Don’t call me Mother of Dahu in the future. You can call me Su Li, or you can call me Little Su. Moreover, my sons aren’t called Dahu and Erhu anymore!”
Old Zhao asked, “Then what’s your son’s name?”
Everyone in the car also looked at Su Li. They had never heard of He Yufeng changing the children’s name!
Su Li said, “The elder one is He Qingyao, and the second is He Qingmu.”
Old Zhao looked disgusted when he heard that. “What’s so good with the names being so scholarly? It’s not as good as Dahu and Erhu!”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Su Li did not say anything. She got into the car and handed over the fare before asking Old Zhao to drive the car.
Seeing that Su Li did not reply, Old Master Zhao did not continue. He drove the ox cart towards town.
“Mother of Dahu-
Su Li glanced at the person who was talking to her.
That person recalled what Su Li had just said and hurriedly changed his words. “Su Li, why have you been going to town every day recently? Did He Yufeng catch a lot of prey and sell them for a good price?”
The person who asked this obviously didn’t know about He Yufeng’s injury. If he knew, it definitely wouldn’t be so quiet now. Everyone would definitely surround her and ask questions.
Su Li couldn’t be bothered to explain. “I have something to do in town.”
“What thing?” The person continued to ask.
Su Li pretended not to hear him and ignored his words.
The person who asked the question was displeased. He pursed his lips and scolded Su Li in his heart before turning around to chat with the person beside him.
“Hey, do you think there’s a person lying in the middle of the road?”
Su Li looked ahead. There was really a person lying horizontally in the middle of the road.
There was an ox cart lying in the middle of the road, so Old Zhao could only stop it.
“What do we do now?”
“Should we go over and take a look?”
Everyone walked towards that person.
Su Li thought for a moment and followed.
The person lying on the ground had his face in yellow soil. For a moment, his face could not be seen clearly.
Old Zhao flipped the person over. It was a middle-aged man. At this moment, his face was green and his lips were pale. His breathing was very weak.
“I think so too, but Liu Kui usually looks quite sturdy. Why did he collapse so easily?”
“It looks like his body is stiff. Is Liu Kui dead?”
Everyone was so frightened that they took a step back, afraid that they would get into trouble.
“It’s none of our business even if we die. We didn’t even touch the corner of his clothes.”
“Old Zhao flipped him over just now. If there’s a problem, look for him. It has nothing to do with us.”
“Yes, Old Zhao has touched this person. If anyone causes trouble, look for him.” Old Zhao was furious when he heard their words. “You… you…
As everyone spoke, Su Li had already unbuttoned Liu Kui’s clothes and started to perform CPR on him.
After a while, Liu Kui’s heartbeat gradually recovered.
Su Li took out the silver needles she carried with her and began to perform acupuncture on Liu Kui.
The onlookers: .
Su Li was too thirsty!
She didn’t even let go of a person who was about to die. Was it really good to take off someone’s clothes in public?
When they saw Su Li starting to stab someone with a needle, they were so frightened that they took a big step back. This was even more terrifying than when Su Li took off his clothes just now.
“Mother of Dahu, if you stab him to death, don’t implicate us!” “That’s right. We’re just passing by. You’re the murderer!”
Su Li was busy administering acupuncture and ignored them.
“What do you know? These are silver needles. Mother of Dahu… Uh, Su Li is saving him. You’re really a group of ignorant women.”
Perhaps it was because he had been reprimanded just now, but Old Master Zhao was now defending Su Li.
Everyone whispered to each other, not believing that Su Li was saving someone at all. All of them were afraid of being implicated by Su Li.
Su Li had just pulled out the silver needle when Liu Kui opened his eyes. “He’s awake, he’s really awake!” Old Zhao was extremely excited, as if he was the one who saved him.
Liu Kui looked at the unfamiliar faces in front of him and asked, “Were you the ones who saved me?”
Before he fainted, he was still conscious. He clearly remembered that he had fallen to the ground. He wanted to call for help, but he could not make a single sound.
Old Zhao raised his chin proudly. “That’s right. If it weren’t for us, you would have hardened long ago and could have your funeral done tomorrow.”
Su Li glanced at Old Zhao, who rubbed his nose guiltily. Although he wasn’t the one who saved him, everyone who saw the incident had a share, right? Liu Kui thanked them. “Thank you so much. I thought I was going to die here today.”
Su Li put away the silver needles and asked, “Are you a carpenter?” Liu Kui did not expect Su Li to ask this, but he still nodded truthfully.
“Yes, there’s no one around here who can craft better than me. If you want to make furniture, you can look for me.”
Su Li nodded. “I saved you just now, so…”
Liu Kui tactfully replied, “I’ll help you make the furniture for free. I won’t charge a single cent.”
He had seen Su Li retracting the silver needles. The fat girl in front of him in this group was probably his true savior..
