Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 206 You’ve Even Begun to Despise Your Own Man

By the time they arrived, Team Leader Qiao Yougen was already waiting there. "Chu Zhiqing, at this point, I had no choice but to e find you."

Before Yunyi could speak, Geng Erhong couldn’t help but protest, "Isn’t Doctor Xue here?"

Team Leader Qiao Yougen glared at Geng Erhong. "Step aside! Don’t add to the chaos here."

Having said that, he turned to Yunyi. "Chu Zhiqing, I know it’s not appropriate to ask you to go up the mountain now. There’s been an accident, and Hua’an Farm Reclamation is far from here. It might take a while for medical personnel to arrive, so we might need to trouble you."

Yunyi sighed deeply and asked suspiciously, "An accident on the very first day of work?"

Team Leader Qiao Yougen’s eyes turned red—after all, one of the injured was his own nephew. "It’s all because of inexperience. The utility pole was lifted up alright, but then something went wrong when they were putting it down; someone let go too soon. There was a slope right in front of where they were placing the utility pole. The person who let go last panicked and used the wrong force, sending the pole careening towards the slope. It directly hit a few people who were squatting and chatting at the edge of the slope, pletely unprepared. Several of them were knocked right down the slope."

With things having reached this point, if she refused, it would be really hard to justify. "And the injured people?"

The Team Leader glanced in the direction of the back mountain. "I came back first to make preparations. They might take a while, as the road from the back mountain towards Hua’an Farm Reclamation, though shorter, is very steep."

Thinking of something, he added, "I’ve already sent people with a handcart to meet them at the foot of the mountain. They should be back soon. You should first see what you’ll need."

Yunyi turned around to find Xue Linfang glaring at her grimly. Without sparing Xue Linfang any courtesy, Yunyi said directly, "Why are you looking at me like that? It’s not like I wanted to e here of my own accord. If you have any plaints, you can talk to the Team Leader, but please, drop that expression."

Xue Linfang was naturally unhappy that the Team Leader had called for Yunyi. However, she also knew she couldn’t stop it. This was especially true since Doctor Gong, who had almost recovered, unfortunately fell and injured his tailbone again a few days ago when he stepped out of his courtyard.

Qiao Yougen wasn’t Xu Wenchang. He shot Xue Linfang a sharp glare. "Xue Linfang, if you still want to work at the village clinic, drop those little schemes of yours. If you make even the slightest mistake again, you’ll be sent to the fields to earn work points."

Xue Linfang was furious but dared not speak, genuinely terrified of losing her job at the village clinic. If she were forced to work in the fields under the scorching sun like the other village girls to earn work points, she would cry her eyes out.

While they were talking, Qiao Shuanglin’s voice came from not too far away, "Dad, they’re ing down the mountain! They’ll be here soon."

Yunyi hurriedly set down her back basket and entered the clinic. She looked over the medicines Xue Linfang had prepared. Still uneasy, she checked all of them again before finally feeling at ease.

Three people were injured in total: one had injuries to his face and arm, another to his leg, and the third to his lower back.

The families of the three injured men had also rushed over. "Chu Zhiqing, please look at my son first! He’s already on the short side, and if his face is ruined on top of that, finding a wife will be even harder!"

These words immediately dispelled the somber atmosphere, and the onlookers couldn’t help but chuckle.

Someone spoke up, "Sizhu’s mother, listen to yourself! Are you dissing your own husband now too?"

Mao Qiaohua wasn’t angered by the teasing and replied, "What I’m saying is the truth. My son is in the middle of matchmaking these days, and if his face gets scarred, it’ll surely affect his chances of finding a wife."

She had her own reasons for openly admitting her son’s shortings; she wanted to grab Yunyi’s attention first to get her son treated before the others.
