7 Chapter 7 No One Cares?_1

"I'm willing!" Li Huai, like someone on a burst of energy, sat up suddenly with a grin from ear to ear, "My wife, I'm willing to go with you, as long as I can be with you, anywhere is fine!"

That Liu Xiangli wanted Li Huai to go with her showed that she didn't despise him, and of course, that made Li Huai very happy.

Liu Xiangli should be happy as Li Huai agreed, but she regretted somewhat because Li Huai was calling her "wife" again.

"You can come with me. But let's get one thing clear, I'm only grateful to you, trying to give you a better life. So, don't call me 'wife' anymore. I am older than you, you should call me 'sister', can you do that?"

Liu Xiangli didn't dare to be too firm with her words, fearing that they might hurt Li Huai's feelings.

Odd, why would she care about this stupid lad's feelings?

"I can do that, sister-wife!"

Liu Xiangli pursed her lips tightly. Oh, this silly boy, verbally he agreed but still insisted on calling her 'wife'.

Not only that, but now it's 'sister-wife'. It should be either 'sister' or 'wife', who on earth uses the term 'sister-wife'?

Never mind, there's no one around. Just let him call her that for now and make himself happy for a couple of days.

However, once they return to Jianghai, he won't be permitted to call her 'sister-wife' anymore.

"It's dinner time, sister-wife, what would you like to eat?" Li Huai asked.

"The fish soup at noon was good, let's have that for dinner. Also, catch more fish, you need to eat too." Liu Xiangli said.

"Alright, sister-wife, take a rest inside the house. I'm off to catch some fish." Li Huai ran eagerly towards the pond behind the dilapidated temple.

The pond was teeming with fish. After all, it was specifically for rearing fish, how could it not be full of them?

Who could stop Li Huai? If they accidentally angered him, he might not just catch a few, he might wipe out all the fish in the pond.

Liu Xiangli hadn't done anything all day, there was no need to rest. She wondered whether she should help Li Huai pack for leaving tomorrow.

But searching here and there, she couldn't find a single decent piece of clothing that belonged to Li Huai.

Maybe it's simpler just to leave without anything. They'll have someone help him buy new clothes once they get to Jianghai.

After dinner, Li Huai announced he wanted to say goodbye to everyone in the village.

Liu Xiangli felt a headache coming on. With Li Huai's constant stirring up drama, the village would probably burst into lively celebration at his departure, rather than miss him.

Just as Liu Xiangli had predicted, Li Huai first came to Yang Hua's house, Yang Hua heard that it was Li Huai and knowing how he was up to no good late at night, dared not open the door.

Also, Yang Hua didn't take Li Huai's word seriously about leaving Xiaobaikou Village. So, she said a few words through the door and sent Li Huai on his way.

"Widow Yang must have realized that I have a wife now, that's why she's angry and doesn't want to see me." Li Huai was also helpless. Earlier, when he proposed so many times, Widow Yang had refused him bluntly. Now, regret was futile.

Next, Li Huai went to a few other houses, but like with Yang Hua, as soon as they heard it was Li Huai, they didn't dare open the door. When Li Huai finally came to Zhang Lao Er's home, he was able to enter because they hadn't locked the door yet.

Zhang Lao'er had just finished his dinner, puffing away at his hookah and thinking of the fifty thousand yuan bride price money. The more he thought about it, the more distressed he became.

Hearing footsteps in the courtyard, he took a look and almost fell off his bench in fright. How did this troublemaker Li Huai show up again?

Before Zhang Lao'er could even greet him, Li Huai had already run into his house.

"Hm? Zhang Lao Er, why is there only you at home, where is your wife?"

"Even my wife who's in her fifties you wouldn't leave alone?" Zhang Lao'er wanted to cry but had no tears.

"What nonsense are you talking about, I came to find you. No, I came to find your Stupid San. I might've been careless before and didn't thoroughly cure Stupid San. I'm leaving Xiaobaikou Village tomorrow, so I want to fully cure Stupid San tonight, as I might not get another chance." said Li Huai.

"Really?" Zhang Lao Er was somewhat doubtful, could this wretch really be so kind-hearted? But seeing Li Huai so serious, he seemed genuine. Whatever the case, he would call Stupid San over first.

What disappointed Li Huai was that Zhang Lao'er didn't care about him leaving Xiaobaikou Village, he only cared about his Stupid San.

When Stupid San came, Li Huai did a checkup and quickly found the problem.

Stupid San's illness was caused by blocked energies at three Death Acupoints: the baihui acupoint, Shenting acupoint, and his Temples acupoint. He had missed out on the Shenting acupoint by accident.

Since there was still some disease in the Shenting acupoint, Stupid San recovered for a while but then relapsed into his foolish state.

As there was only one Death acupoint with a disease, this time the treatment was very fast.

In a minute or two, Li Huai extracted the disease from Stupid San's Shenting acupoint. Like yesterday, a dark yellow tainted energy dispersed in an instant in the air.

Stupid San's eyes again became bright, Zhang Lao'er was ecstatic.

Just like yesterday, after asking over ten questions, which Stupid San answered easily, Zhang Lao'er finally believed that his son was cured from his illness.

But Zhang Lao'er was a bit worried, "Li Huai, it won't relapse, will it?"

"No, otherwise I will behead myself for you," said Li Huai.

"What rubbish are you speaking, Stupid San, aren't you going to quickly thank Li Huai?" Zhang Lao'er said.

Stupid San already knew about his foolish disease, so he felt like he had slept for a long time. He also knew that it was Li Huai who had cured him, so he was naturally grateful.

Before leaving, Li Huai made a point to say, "Zhang Lao'er, I'm leaving Xiaobaikou Village tomorrow. If I have time in the future, I will come to visit you."

To Li Huai's disappointment, Zhang Lao'er still didn't take it seriously.

After leaving Zhang Lao'er's home, he went to Zhang Yitang's house. Zhang Yitang's front door was closed, so Li Huai climbed over the wall to get in. Zhang Yitang had just come out of the bathroom, seeing Li Huai in his yard scared him so much.

"Li Huai, please go easy on me, I still have to work on someone's roof tomorrow." Zhang Yitang wept, crouched down and protected his head with both hands.

As per usual, whenever Li Huai appeared, he could expect a beating.

But this time he waited for a while, and Li Huai's expected beating never came.

Li Huai just used his hand, patting his back a few times.

He felt a warm current flowing into his body, it felt comforting, but he was still scared, as he didn't know what Li Huai was doing.

"Cross-eyed, live a good life from now on, stop stealing. Oh right, I've healed your heart disease." Li Huai finished saying, climbed over the wall and left.

He didn't tell Zhang Yitang that he was leaving Xiaobaikou Village, because he knew that Zhang Yitang would just disregard it, like Yang Hua and Zhang Lao'er had.

Li Huai then came to Wang Dashi's house, just like he said before, Wang Dashi was impotent.

In his 30's, he hadn't had a single child. With this visit, Li Huai not only treated Wang Dashi's sexual dysfunction, he also cured his wife's infertility.

Of course, Wang Dashi and his wife didn't believe it. It would take time to confirm whether the infertility was cured or not. But as for Wang Dashi's sexual dysfunction, it was confirmed that very night. That night, the bed was almost broken.

In the moonlight, Li Huai's silhouette seemed longer and lonelier. Suddenly, he turned around, facing Xiaobaikou Village, and knelt on the ground, "All of you are my benefactors, if one day in the future I make it big, I will surely come back to repay you!"

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Li Huai and Liu Xiangli set off. As expected, nobody came to bid Li Huai farewell. Liu Xiangli could feel Li Huai's disappointment, but she didn't know how to comfort him.

But unexpectedly, when they reached the village entrance, it was crowded with people...
