Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Tong Sanlang left the courtyard and scanned around, but he saw no one.

It was not yet noon, and the people were still in the fields.

He furrowed his brows, about to knock on the door of his neighbor Yang Guilan’s house. But a donkey cart appeared from the corner of the street: Qiao Changshun and his son Qiao Dami were returning home.

Tong Sanlang’s brows furrowed tighter, the presence of Qiao Changshun made matters complicated.

As he suspected, the Sun Family matriarch, who had just been about to return home to discuss with Sun Junyan, saw Qiao Changshun guiding the donkey cart and fell to her knees, crying out, “Changshun, please, I beg you!”

Qiao Changshun had been discussing something with his son Qiao Dami. He had caught a cold from the rain the day before and his lame right leg had begun to ache again.

During the survey of apple saplings on the slope just now, he lost his footing and fell down the hill.

Fortunately, he was not injured, though his right leg ached more.

The pain was bearable for him, so he had decided not to tell Qiao Xiaomai to avoid having her spend money on medication for him.

But Qiao Dami disagreed.

Qiao Dami had been warned by Qiao Xiaomai; how could he not inform his sister about something so serious? Despite the grass in the wheat field, he urged Qiao Changshun to go home.

Qiao Changshun could only comply, but he was still insistent, and they were discussing the matter all the way home.

Qiao Dami’s small face was tight, and he remained silent, allowing his father’s incessant rambling.

However, the piercing wail of the head of the Sun Family caught both their attention, and they unconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.

They saw the matriarch of the Sun Family kneeling at their doorstep, slapping her thighs while crying out, “Changshun, please, I beg you!”

Qiao Dami was stunned.

The scene made Qiao Changshun panic like a frightened rabbit. He hurriedly jumped down from the donkey cart, “Mother, you… Ah!”

The action startled him so much that he unconsciously forgot that he was now disabled with a lame leg.

Even though the donkey cart was not high and the speed was not fast, he had just rolled down a hill, and his lame right leg was in agonizing pain.

Hence, before he had a chance to ask about the situation, a spike of intense pain shot through his entire body, making him fall and unable to move.

Seeing this, Qiao Dami also panicked, “Father!”

He stood up on the donkey cart, preparing to jump down as well.

“Don’t jump.”

A familiar male voice came. Immediately after, the small body, poised to jump down, fell into a broad and warm embrace. The owner of the embrace gave a light push off from the donkey cart, and he landed smoothly on the ground.

Then he lifted his hand to squeeze his small face, affectionately saying, “Little buddy, what if you also got hurt?”

It was Brother Tong!

Qiao Dami’s large eyes sparkled. His arms instinctively wrapped around Tong Sanlang’s neck, “Brother Tong, when did you get here!”

Earlier, he had only noticed the crying and howling Sun Family matriarch and had not noticed anyone else.

“I’ve been here all along,” Tong Sanlang said with a smile. He bent down to put Qiao Dami on the ground, then turned to look at Qiao Changshun, who collapsed on the ground in pain. “Uncle Changshun, let me take you to the doctor.”

Without waiting for Qiao Changshun’s response, he bent down, lifted Qiao Changshun up, and quickly placed him on the donkey cart.

Seeing this, Qiao Dami quickly followed, “I’ll go too! Where’s my sister?”

“Your sister went to find your Grandpa Tong. You go home first, lock the door from the inside, and wait for your sister to come back before opening it,” Tong Sanlang instructed.

“Okay!” Qiao Dami nodded.

He trusted Tong Sanlang as much as he trusted his own sister, Qiao Xiaomai.

“Wait,” Qiao Changshun, sitting on the donkey cart and enduring the pain, looked towards his house, “Sanlang, what happened to my mother?”
