These chapters are not fillers, I swear.
Lin Yu wouldn't have got Su Wan involved in the drama but he knew that she wouldn't have left Feng Dai alone in this mess either, thus he did as she asked.. first he sent Fang Zimo to get a few sticks and ropes while Lin Zhi was sent to get the fertiliser from their house. He knew that she was trying to revive the fields but he still walked to Feng Dai and whispered, " Listen, brother Dai .. we will do our best but if things don't work out then don't blame my wife, she is just trying to help you."
Feng Dai of course wouldn't blame Su Wan, she was the only one who came to his aid after his fields were destroyed like this, he wasn't that ungrateful of a man, so he smiled and nodded, " Don't worry, brother Yu… I have already given up on these crops if they can be saved then it's great but if they cannot be saved then I would not blame you or anyone else. It's my bad luck that I have a family like this, what else can I say when my own coin is laden with gunk?"
Feng Zihang was eavesdropping on what Feng Dai and Lin Yu were talking about thus when he heard Feng Dai call him a coin that was laden with gunk, he felt like he has been slapped in the face. Really? He was calling him a useless coin, wasn't he? The one that was nothing but a burden on him?
He was smart enough to understand the sarcasm here, thank you very much!
Su Wan on the other hand was carefully assessing the damage as she turned to Lin Yu. " Yu, go and straighten those crops that have been bent at an unnatural angle and try to be as careful as possible because there is a chance that they will snap in two halves if you are too hard."
" Got it," said Lin Yu as he picked up the sticks and ropes before he got inside the field. It was a good thing that Su Wan didn't come down because the second Lin Yu stepped inside, he stumbled and fell because of the crops that were tangled together and caught his foot.
" Yu, are you okay—-" Su Wan shouted when she saw that Lin Yu really fell and hurried to get him up but Lin Yu stopped her. "It's fine, I am all right —- my good leg was the one that was caught up, not the bad one so I am all right. You stay back if you come down, you will get hurt." Then he slowly got to his feet before limping a few paces away from Su Wan and only then released a sigh of pain that he was holding in because he didn't want to worry Su Wan. But the truth was that his bad leg was caught in the entangled crops and was throbbing painfully but he couldn't let his wife know that he was hurting or else she will feel guilty.
Seeing that her husband was limping a little slow, she knew that Lin Yu was lying to her. Su Wan glared at Feng Zihang who raised his brows and asked, " What? Why are you looking at me like that for? What have I done now?"
" You are such a crow beak, you were the one who said that anyone stepping inside the fields will fall.. now look at what you have done!" Su Wan snapped angrily at Feng Zihang before turning to Fang Zimo.
" You…" first coin laded with gunk and now crow beak, was he here to be disrespected?
However, before he could say anything, Su Wan called Fang Zimo. " Zimo, go and help Yu.. the damaged crops are a lot worse than I expected, I think he will need help."𝙛𝑟𝘦ℯ𝘄e𝙗nov𝙚𝑙. 𝐜𝑜𝗺
She knew that Lin Yu was trying so hard to hide his pain not only because he was worried that she will worry about him but also because he didn't want to show his pain to her.. it was like a matter of pride to him. Seriously, she needed to take him to a good doctor soon in the capital, because Doctor Gu raised his hands long ago —-saying that it has been too long and now it was no way for him to treat Lin Yu since the wound has been left untreated for so long and only a well-advanced doctor can treat Lin Yu since it needed the bones to be broken and then snapped together again.
Fang Zimo hurried after Lin Yu and the two of them managed to restore the crops back to their original shape somehow. After they were done, Su Wan asked them to pour a little fertiliser for them to regain some of their strength—- the two did as ordered.
Once they were done, the two stepped out of the fields and then looked at Su Wan who smiled at them before praising them, " You two have done a good job, tonight I will cook something good to reward you guys." After she was done, she turned to look at Feng Dai who was standing beside her and said, " We have done whatever we could to revive them, now we all need to wait and see, if the crops will be able to get back to their original shape or not. It will only take a few weeks at most for them to recover, if they do then it's great, if they can't then at least we did our best, right?"
Feng Dai nodded as he silently swore in his head to take care of his crops until the end of the week. It didn't matter whether or not they restored back to their original shape but there was no way he was going to give Feng Zihang another chance to create trouble for him again!
Feng Zihang too looked at the crops that seemed to have been fixed somehow and his expression turned even worse. While Feng Dai and the others were praising Su Wan for her smart wits, he was staring at her like he was wishing her dead.
