Acai's Sky

Chapter 723 50 Continue Life 6

Shen Hanyang held Ah Cai's wrist tightly, carefully feeling the rhythm of her pulse, his brows slightly furrowed. "You bumped your head a bit, so it's possible you'll be speechless for a while. But don't worry, we'll slowly figure it out."

Then he turned around and said to everyone, "Don't rush to ask questions, let me talk to her."

Then, he turned his gaze to Ah Cai again, softened his voice, and said softly, "Just answer my questions. If it's yes, nod your head. If it's no, shake your head. It's very simple."

Shen Hanyang took a deep breath and asked without hesitation, "Was it someone from the village who caused you to fall into the ravine?"

These words exploded in the room like a thunderclap.

Ah Cai was stunned by this sudden question, and muttered to herself: Why did this doctor go straight to the point without any preparation?

However, she couldn't speak at this moment, because as soon as she opened her mouth, her Northeastern accent would be exposed.

And more importantly, what Dr. Shen said seemed to be authentic northern Mandarin. If you don't listen carefully, it would be difficult to understand.

Without time to think, Ah Cai nodded her little head vigorously, and at the same time stared at Dr. Shen with her big watery eyes, as if urging him to continue asking questions.

Seeing Ah Cai so anxious, Doctor Shen couldn't help but think that this little girl was very interesting, so he quickly struck while the iron was hot and asked: "So which girls are you closer to on weekdays? I'll ask them one by one, and if anyone pushed you, just nod to me." After that, he looked at Ah Cai expectantly.

"Is it Xu Yuanhua?" Doctor Shen asked tentatively.

A Cai shook her head without hesitation to express her denial.

"So... is it Fang Zhuer?" Doctor Shen asked again.

A Cai still shook her head firmly.

Seeing this, Doctor Shen was not discouraged. He immediately said a third name: "Could it be Liu Zhaodi?"

Ah Cai widened her eyes and nodded vigorously.

Li Huaishan frowned tightly, his face full of confusion as he said, "Liu Zhaodi has always been an extremely timid and cowardly girl. How dare she harm our child? What on earth does she want?"

As he spoke, he paced back and forth, feeling really confused.

At this time, Acai pointed to the bead inlaid on the hairpin on her mother's bun and gestured with all her strength.

Although the little person's movements were a little clumsy, his eyes revealed an urgent desire to express himself clearly.

The kid next to him stared at it for a long time before finally realizing what was going on. He said, "Liu Zhaodi once boasted to us that her mother went to the temple to get a lucky bead specifically for her. Could that be the reason?"

When everyone heard the words "lucky bead", they were all stunned and started to wonder what was going on with this bead of Liu Zhaodi?

Shen Hanyang was seen sitting steadily on the old square stool, with his chin supported by one hand, looking thoughtful.

After a moment, he slowly raised his head and said solemnly, "If this lucky bead is of good quality, there will be no problem if I use it for myself.

However, I am afraid that some people with ulterior motives may place it on someone who also desires good fortune in order to change their luck. If this happens, it will lead to disaster..."

Li Huaishan was shocked when he heard this, and quickly and deftly filled a cup of steaming wild tea for Doctor Shen and handed it to him respectfully.

At the same time, he anxiously asked, "Doctor Shen, you actually know the inside story of this lucky bead?"

Shen Hanyang smiled slightly, blew away the hot steam from the teacup, took a sip, and then answered slowly:

"I have been practicing medicine for forty years and have seen many strange and bizarre things in this world. Naturally, I know a thing or two about the secrets behind the lucky beads.

Back in the day, in the backyards of those wealthy families, women often used lucky beads to harm each other. Their methods were so vicious that it was appalling!

Pregnant women, in particular, often become victims of lucky charm beads, often ending up with a tragic death or two lives!"

Ah Cai had to admire Doctor Shen. He really knew everything. From the way he spoke, it was clear that he often treated wealthy families and knew all their secrets.

Doctor Shen stood up and said, "Be careful of Liu Zhaodi's family from now on. Her father, Liu Laonian, may seem honest, but how could he be so stupid to marry a beautiful and unruly woman like Lou Xiaotian?"

Li Huaishan solemnly sent Doctor Shen away, then turned back to the courtyard, frowning slightly as he asked, "Where's the second son? I'm telling you, from now on, stay away from the Liu family! This family is truly baffling, and I wonder what they're up to!"

At this time, Gao had just finished cooking. She took off her apron, walked to the hilltop, put her hands to her mouth, and shouted at the top of her voice: "It's time to eat——"

The sound echoed through the valley, as if it could reach far away.

Not long after, a burst of hurried footsteps came from far away, "da da da da..."

It turned out that the second son, Li Jinghong, heard his mother's call and was running home quickly.

Li Jinghong ran to the door of his house and first scooped up water from the water tank to wash his face. Water droplets slid down his cheeks, and before he had time to wipe them dry, he rushed into the house impatiently.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Jinghong didn't even have time to catch his breath. He excitedly shouted to his sister A Cai, "Little sister, your second brother is going to avenge you!"

At this time, Acai was squatting on the ground teasing a cute panda cub, feeding it carefully with a milk fruit in her hand.

Hearing what his second brother said, Acai raised his head and looked at Li Jinghong curiously with his big eyes, while other people in the family also turned their eyes to the impetuous second brother.

Li Jinghong puffed out his chest proudly and began to describe the incident vividly:

"Shunzi told me that he saw Liu Zhaodi trying to drag you to the forest to pick fresh fruits, but you didn't want to go at all and kept struggling desperately.

Later we only saw Liu Zhaodi running back as if she had lost her soul, but there was no sign of you.

At that time, everyone was suspicious, thinking that she must have had evil intentions. After Dad went out to look for you, we went to find Liu Zhaodi in a rage to settle the score.

At first, the girl was quite stubborn and refused to tell the truth, but after we threatened her a few times, she confessed everything and said that she accidentally dragged you down the mountain stream. Humph, let's see if she dares to bully our girl next time!

Li Jingqi approached Li Jinghong with curiosity and asked in a low voice, "How was it? Did you beat up Liu Zhaodi?"

Li Jinghong raised his eyebrows, a barely perceptible smug smile playing on the corner of his mouth, and replied: "I beat her up, but I didn't hit her face, I hit her butt! Hehe..."

As he spoke, he rubbed his palms unconsciously, as if the beating he just received made him feel very relieved.

The two brothers immediately gathered together, head to head and shoulder to shoulder, and began to whisper to each other.

Sometimes they frowned, sometimes they looked enlightened, and it was obvious that they were heatedly discussing what happened between Liu Zhaodi and their sister.

After a while, Li Jinghong's face suddenly turned red, veins popped out on his forehead, and he roared angrily:

"That damn Liu Zhaodi, she must have secretly placed that lucky bead on my sister! Poor little sister, she's clearly bearing the calamity for her!"
