C218 Heartwood (1/2)

Baili Jinxiu sneered, looked at Wang Mengcai who was standing opposite him trying to steal something, and protected the miserable Xu Niangzi behind him.

”Stealing from a woman? Are you a man or not?”

Baili Jinxiu crossed his arms across his chest and looked at Wang Mengcai with contempt.

Wang Mengcai was originally an Elementary Scholar, the person who loved to show his face the most, but now that he heard Baili Jinxiu's words, his eyes burned with rage.

”Who are you? This is between me and her. She has delayed my life for a long time, and now I have listened to their family members not to go to the Imperial Examinations and become a doctor.

But now she can't have a baby, and she wants to leave me. I, Wang Mengcai, have a clear conscience. If you don't believe me, you can ask these fellow villagers here. ”

”That's right, the people of Dr. Wang are very good. This Miss, don't meddle in other people's business. ”

”Every time Dr. Wang helps us diagnose our injuries, he will always charge less. Compared to the pharmacy, Dr. Wang is really a great person …”

Hearing such praise, the corner of Baili Jinxiu's lips slightly twitched. Behind him, Xu Niangzi tightly hugged the box on her chest, her face completely wooden.

It was as if such biased words were already normal to her. However, when Baili Jinxiu turned his head to look at her, he could see the unwillingness in her eyes.

Baili Jinxiu was furious again, if he was not willing, then what right did he have to make these people bully him?

”Is this yours?” Baili Jinxiu asked Xu Niangzi in an ice-cold voice. Upon hearing Baili Jinxiu's words, Xu Niangzi nodded at him and said.

”This Miss, this is something from my mother's family.”

”Do you want to give this to this person?” Baili Jinxiu pointed to Wang Mengcai who was standing opposite of him, and said.

Xu Niangzi raised her head to look at Wang Mengcai's pretty and fair face. However, what was reflected in his eyes was not a fair face, but a scarlet revulsion.

”No, what right does this wolf-hearted thing have to take my things? Ever since my family recruited him, he didn't dare to do anything, saying that he wanted to take the exam.

But after so many years, I still haven't been able to pass the exam, and I'm still disgusted that I don't have the means to be reared. So what if I can't raise a child? Is it because I have no way to raise you that I'm delaying your exam title?

When my parents died, you said that you had to learn the medical book, so I gave the pharmacy to you to take care of. But now that you've taken away the pharmacy my parents left me, you want me to give you a concubine?

Wang Mengcai, you are dreaming. We've already left each other, so don't ever think about getting anything from me again. ”

Maybe that woman had been suppressed for too long, or maybe during the argument between her and Wang Mengcai, no one had ever protected her.

Now that Baili Jinxiu had stood out, Xu Niangzi's sorrowful voice completely released the grievances in her heart.

When Wang Mengcai heard these words, his face showed disapproval, and instead said indifferently: ”You cannot have children, could it be that you want my Wang family to have no descendants?

Since you are unable to give me a child, then you should think for the future of our Wang family. But you are jealous. You even forced me to leave you.

Now that I'm familiar with pharmacology, if you give me that book, I can benefit the people. Fellow villagers, tell us, I, Wang Mengcai, have always treated everyone with caution.
