Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Before Zhou Xiaoxi and his friends reached the headman's house, they saw a large group of people gathered under a big willow tree not far from the house.

Come to think of it, even if the rumors were clarified, probably no one would be willing to let the three of them in!

"The Zhou Jun family is coming!"

I don't know who shouted, but everyone present dispersed in all directions at the same time.

Zhou Xiaoxi saw the head of the village, Old Man Zhou and his son, and an energetic old man wearing a gray gown who looked more than ten years younger than his grandfather.

She guessed that this person should be the doctor who came to testify.

It was a little unexpected. Originally, Zhou Xiaoxi thought that the clinic would at most agree to send an apprentice to testify.

The headman cleared his throat unnaturally. "Zhou Jun's family, you two come over here. Zhou Sheng complained to me that someone in the village spread rumors and slandered his son Zhou Jun. He was just sick, but someone spread rumors that he was possessed by an evil spirit. Because of this matter, they invited Doctor Zhang from the city all the way here."

Li was a little confused. Why did this Doctor Zhang look different from what she remembered?

However, I have never been good at recognizing people, and my mind has been completely focused on my man these days, so I didn't pay much attention to the other person's appearance.

I must have remembered it wrong. My second brother is so smart, it is impossible that he invited the wrong person.

"Doctor Zhang, now that everyone is here, please explain to us what is wrong with Zhou Jun. We are country folk and cannot read, so please bear with us and try to explain it in a simple way."

Village chief Dong used the little etiquette of city dwellers that he knew and saluted Doctor Zhang in a crooked manner.

Doctor Zhang stroked his beard slowly, thought for a moment, bowed to everyone around him, and then spoke.

"My fellow villagers, my last name is Zhang. I come from Huichuntang in the county town and I am the chief doctor there. I have been practicing medicine for more than 30 years."

"Although I cannot compare with the imperial doctors in the palace, I have cured thousands of patients over the years. The name of Huichuntang is almost known to everyone in our county. So you can rest assured in my medical skills."

After a brief pause and looking around at the people around him, Doctor Zhang continued,

"Zhou Jun's illness is caused by blood stasis in his head, which affects his brain. As for the cause of blood stasis, it varies from person to person. Since Zhou Jun is not yet 30 years old, I speculate that it is caused by overwork, emotional disorder and improper diet."

"The claim that Zhou Jun was possessed by an evil spirit is pure nonsense. Oh, it's just a lie."

There was a commotion among the crowd, and Doctor Zhang stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

"He is lying in bed motionless now. What harm can he cause to everyone? Isn't it normal for the Zhou family members who spend every day with him? Zhou Jun is still young. Although he was delayed a little because of the long journey when he was sent to the hospital, the chances of him waking up are still very high."

"Please don't let this ridiculous rumor kill a person's life!"

Zhou Xiaoxi was so happy that she almost jumped up. This Doctor Zhang, oh no, it should be the Miraculous Doctor Zhang, was the one sent by God to save their family!

Everyone was silent for a moment, but upon closer inspection, there were still many people in the crowd who looked indignant.

Dong Lizhang could only think of ways to add fuel to the fire and make the villagers dare not make trouble again. In fact, he didn't want to get involved in this matter at all. It was a waste of time and effort, and there was no benefit in it.

But that old man Zhou Sheng threatened him with what happened to Zhou Changkuan ten years ago.

If this matter is not settled, if the Zhou family really goes to the county government to sue him, the consequences will be disastrous.

The reason why Old Man Dong was so guilty and easy to control was that a monster was born in the neighboring Yangliu Village a few years ago. However, that family had a large population, so other people in the village didn't dare to offend them easily.

We asked a doctor to see the child, and he said that the child's mother had diabetes, and the lack of timely treatment affected the normal growth of the child in her womb.

When he first heard about it, Old Man Dong was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. So Zhou Changkuan's family might also be...

He didn't dare to think about it further. Everyone in Huaihua Village who knew about this had been severely threatened by him. Almost all the men in the village were involved at that time. If something happened, no one would be able to escape.

After coughing a few times, Old Man Dong put on the airs of a village head and used his usual lecturing tone to scold everyone loudly.

"Since Divine Doctor Zhang has explained it so clearly, everyone should put aside those messy thoughts. Our county magistrate is a well-known honest official. If anyone dares to cause a death and is dragged away by the magistrate to be beheaded, you must not regret it!"

Hearing this, everyone felt a dull pain at the back of their necks and shrank their necks one by one.

"As the old saying goes, when people eat grains, they have selfish thoughts and are bound to suffer from disasters. Who among you can guarantee that they will never get sick? What if someone spreads rumors that you are possessed by evil spirits? Will you all be burned to death?!"

The scene was completely silent. Old Man Dong was very satisfied, so he continued:

"I think you are just idle! The autumn harvest is coming soon, don't you have any idea? Without food, you are dizzy with hunger, I don't think anyone can have such a messy and crooked idea!"

Looking around, even those troublemakers had wilted, and Old Man Dong finally felt relieved.

However, the Zhou family is so difficult for him and completely disregards his status and dignity as the head of the village. Humph, just wait for me!

"Everyone, please disperse. If anyone dares to spread rumors again, I will drive him out of Huaihua Village. As the village head, I still have this power. Did you hear me clearly?!"

No one dared to be the first to speak out at this time.

On ordinary days, many families were bullied several times because they accidentally offended the head of the village.

After nodding in agreement, everyone went home one after another.

Things finally had a chance to take a breather, but Zhou Xiaoxi was not too optimistic.

After this incident, their family’s life in Huaihua Village will not be easy.

There would be more troubles in the future, but now was not the time to think about them. She knelt on the ground with a swift movement and kowtowed three times to Doctor Zhang, very pious.

She originally thought that she would have a tough battle to fight today.

Li was not very knowledgeable. She was a little girl of only twelve years old and had little influence. Her second uncle, who was the most shrewd, was very likely to turn against her at the last minute.

She was only 50% sure of dispelling the rumor.

Who would have thought that a great teammate would appear out of nowhere, not only with strong "business ability" but also with a warm heart. God really helps me!

Li, who was standing by, immediately knelt down and thanked him with tears in her eyes.

"Dr. Zhang, we are all very grateful to you for helping us. In my next life, I will work like a slave to repay you!"

Old man Dong immediately looked worried. If it weren’t for his threat, a doctor alone would be of little use!

As long as he doesn't agree, he can forget about entering this village.

Zhou Xiaoxi was so smart that she would not ignore this. She quickly added,

"Grandpa, you have worked hard today, and our whole family is grateful to you. My grandfather just happened to have stockpiled some good wine, and I will deliver it to you tomorrow. Please don't despise it."

When he heard that there was wine, Old Man Dong's face was wrinkled with smile. Together with Doctor Zhang, he repeatedly supported the mother and daughter, saying "No, no".

Zhou Xiaoxi, who was generous to others, did not feel guilty at all, because the wine was originally bought by Zhou Jun for Old Man Zhou during the Chinese New Year.

The old man was very stingy and never even took out the wine to drink with his youngest son.

Now that the family is penniless, it's time for the other members of the Zhou family to bleed.
