The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion-Chapter 33: Catch a Fish
Chapter 33
Right after that, she quickly flipped the stick and swung it towards the shore, sending a live big carp flopping in front of the Mo women.
"Sisters-in-law, put the fish away."
He Zhiran didn't think much of it herself. For her, this kind of fishing method was just child's play.
In her previous life when she went on missions, she often had to camp outdoors, so it was only natural for her to grasp some wilderness survival skills.
However, others didn't think the same way.
Everyone was stunned by her effortless actions, even the guards were sighing that they were no match for her.
Every year when they escorted prisoners, they would pass by here and knew there were fish in this river.
They had tried to catch fish before without any success.
They just thought about bringing a fishing net next time but ended up forgetting about it.
Seeing He Zhiran had already caught the second fish, the guards were even secretly admiring her in their hearts.
The Mo women originally wanted to dissuade He Zhiran from revealing her feet, but now seeing the two live big carps in front of them, they had already forgotten their original intention.
Especially Old Lady Mo reassured herself even more.
Women adhering to such proprieties was just to avoid criticism and dislike from their husband's family.
Anyway, He Zhiran was their daughter-in-law, as long as the Mo family didn't look down on her, revealing her feet was fine...
Since Mo Jiuye had already chosen to wake up early, he didn't continue pretending to sleep.
He also benefited from Peng Wang's favor, as their plank cart was parked in the shadiest spot, and that spot didn't obstruct He Zhiran from catching fish at all.
Peng Wang was also stunned by He Zhiran's ability, and couldn't help but say to Mo Jiuye:
"You really have good fortune. You married such a capable wife just a day before your exile."
At this moment, Mo Jiuye also had mixed feelings.
He didn't know why the He house's young miss, who never stepped out of her inner chamber, would have such abilities exceeding most men.
At the same time, he also had the same thought as Peng Wang.
Although this method of catching fish seemed easy to ordinary people, he could also do it perfectly.
However, this seemingly simple action would be impossible without a certain level of martial arts foundation.
He wondered what good deed he had done to be able to marry such an extraordinary wife before his exile.
At the same time, he became even more curious about everything regarding He Zhiran...
Li Rou'er stood not far away, staring fiercely at the scene.
She never knew that fool He Zhiran had such great skills.
Previously in front of her, she had really concealed her abilities.
The more Li Rou'er thought about it, the more upset she felt. Unconsciously, she came to the riverside.
"He Zhiran, you really have no shame, actually catching fish barefoot in front of everyone without fear of ridicule."
At this moment, He Zhiran had just targeted her prey and didn't immediately refute.
However, upon hearing Li Rou'er's sarcastic words, the Mo women couldn't stand it.
Mo Hanyue stepped forward first: "Li Rou'er, who do you think you are? A young lady from a prestigious family? Relying on food delivered to your mouth, please recognize your own status. You're just an exiled convict.
At this time, being able to fill your stomach is already good enough, yet you still care about such proprieties, really ill-omened."
If she had sister-in-law's skills, she would have taken off her shoes and socks to help catch fish already.
Especially after sister-in-law had become her big idol, Mo Hanyue would definitely not allow anyone to slander her amazing sister-in-law.
The other sisters-in-law also chimed in, attacking Li Rou'er one after another.
Just as Li Rou'er was about to argue with them, she suddenly felt a slimy and cold thing slap her face.
The one who struck was precisely He Zhiran.
When she caught the third fish, she directly swung it towards Li Rou'er's face.
It accurately hit the right side of her face.
Seeing this, the Mo family members quickly went forward to collect the fish, while bursting into laughter at Li Rou'er.
Even the few watching guards couldn't help laughing out loud.
Li Rou'er immediately felt she had lost all face.
She grievously turned to look at the few guards.
"Sir, He Zhiran attacked and hurt someone, won't you do something about it?"
The guard glanced at Li Rou'er's dirty face and said in disgust:
"You deserved to be hit for running your mouth."
Li Rou'er...
These guards must have been bewitched by He Zhiran's charming face.
Seeing she wouldn't get any benefits here, Li Rou'er fiercely stomped towards the Mo family's direction before turning back to the Li family's spot.
As a result, she suffered the ridicule of her two younger sisters.
"I thought after you went out, you could also catch some fish like He Zhiran!"
"You really made our Li family lose face. Not only didn't you catch any fish, but you were also mocked."
When Li Rou'er was still at home, she often suffered bullying from these two younger sisters.
At that time, she chose to endure it since she was a concubine's daughter.
But it was different now. With the whole family exiled, she felt there was no need to continue enduring.
Thus, she raised her hand and slapped one of the sisters in the face.
"Don't forget, I'm your elder sister. If I lose face, it also reflects badly on you."
Li Yuer and Li Ruer had never suffered such grievance before, especially being hit by Li Rou'er.
The two almost simultaneously rushed at Li Rou'er.
At the same time, seeing her two daughters being bullied, Li Yuer and Li Ruer's mother also joined the fight.
For a time, the Li family's resting spot became a scene of chaos.
The guards enjoyed watching the fun and no one bothered to stop it.
Only when Li Liang shouted loudly did the group of Li women reluctantly stop.
Looking at them now, all were disheveled with several scratch marks on their faces...
While the Li family quarreled noisily, it didn't affect He Zhiran's fishing at all.
In less than half a hour after entering the river, she had already caught more than twenty carp.
Seeing the amount was about right, she came ashore.
The medicine on the other side had finished brewing. Second sister-in-law brought a bowl to Xie Lin.
Each person in the Mo family also had a bowl, and so did the guards.
Looking at the remaining medicinal broth, He Zhiran called for her second sister-in-law and asked her to bring some to the Xie family as well.
As for the others, no matter what, she wouldn't bother with them before their hostility towards the Mo family receded.
Not long after drinking the medicine, Xie Lin woke up. Although still a little weak, he was no longer in mortal danger.
Xie Tianhai personally came to He Zhiran to express his gratitude.
"Thank you for saving my grandson's life. My Xie family will remember this favor."
Whether he was grateful or not, He Zhiran didn't care. For her, this was just a flick of her finger.
Her main goal was to resolve the misunderstanding between the Xie and Mo families as soon as possible.
After all, they still had a long exile journey ahead. Seeing those hostile gazes all day certainly made one feel very unhappy.
Moreover, the Xie family was Second Sister-in-Law's maternal family. The two families who should have been close were not supposed to continue interacting this way.
"Uncle Xie, my husband has woken up today. If you're free tonight, why not come to our side to chat with him?"
