Chapter 44

44 Lost Weight

Su Ergou pointed behind. “Brother-in-law left slowly. He was afraid that something would happen to you, so he asked me to bring Wang Laizi over first.”

Wei Ting’s injuries had not completely healed. He still needed to lie in bed to recuperate. Occasionally, he would get off the ground and move around. He could only walk slowly with his walking stick.

When he went to Wang Laizi’s house, he left in a hurry, and his leg was swollen in a short time.

On the way home, the snow fell harder. When Su Xiaoxiao found him, he was sitting on a large rock under the old pagoda tree, with his walking stick at the side.

Usually, this stone was a place for many villagers to chat and gossip. Su Xiaoxiao never felt that it was anything special, but tonight, when he sat down, she seemed to have an additional perspective of the place.

He had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, a tall figure, and long legs. His black hair was a little messy from the wind and snow, and it brushed past his handsome face. The scene was beautiful.

“Seriously, he’s criminally seductive,” Su Xiaoxiao muttered and walked forward.

“Why are you sitting here?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “Looking at the scenery?”

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao sat down beside him.

Wei Ting glanced at her strangely. “What?”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the pitch-black night. “Looking at the scenery.”

“Aren’t you not cold?” Wei Ting asked.

Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands. “I’m fat. I’m fat not afraid of the cold. Are you asking me because you’re cold?”

Wei Ting snorted and did not answer.

Su Xiaoxiao touched his hand.

Wei Ting frowned. “What are you doing?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Your hands are so cold. Aren’t you going back? Let’s go! If you continue sitting, you’ll become an ice popsicle!”

As she got up, she wanted to grab Wei Ting’s walking stick and was surprised to find that it was broken.

“You...” She was stunned for a moment, then looked at his leg. “You fell?”

“No,” Wei Ting said expressionlessly.

Su Xiaoxiao squatted down and lifted his left trouser leg. She looked at his bloody knee and said, “You still say you didn’t fall!”

The wound on his left calf was extremely deep. Although it would only require a superficial suture, it would still take some time to completely recover.

This was great. Not only did his calf not recover, but his knee was also grazed.

“Don’t just sit there. Let’s head back and apply the medication.” Su Xiaoxiao stood up and put away the broken walking stick with one hand while extending her other hand in front of him.

Seeing that Wei Ting did not move, she waved her chubby hand. “It’s just an injured leg. Don’t tell me you expect me to carry you? I’m a delicate girl! How can I carry a man like you?”

Wei Ting looked at her with a complicated expression.

In the end, Wei Ting still held her hand. The two of them walked home step by step against the snow.

After taking a few steps, Su Xiaoxiao said, “Alright, I take back what I said just now. I’m a 200-pound fatty. You can’t break me. Don’t be afraid to use force.”

Excessive pressure on his injured leg would worsen his injuries.

Wei Ting hesitated for a moment and leaned slightly against her.

Su Xiaoxiao thought of what happened tonight and coughed lightly. She said proudly, “Actually, even if you don’t help me today, I can get away. I found an alibi for myself.”

Wei Ting sneered. “Who said I helped you? I’m helping Ergou. Don’t flatter yourself and think too much.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Hehe, who’s thinking too much? Ergou is my brother. Does he need your help?”

Wei Ting said calmly, “He called me brother-in-law.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “If he calls you brother-in-law, are you his brother-in-law? Then if I call you husband, are you my husband?”

Wei Ting said, “That depends on how you call me.”

Su Xiaoxiao stopped and looked at him deeply. She smiled. “Husband... ”

Wei Ting: “...How unpleasant.”

Su Xiaoxiao’s face darkened.

The two of them continued walking. When they passed by Old Su’s house, they bumped into Su Jinniang, who came out to pour water.

Su Jinniang looked at the two people in the snow and suddenly called out to Su Xiaoxiao.

“Su Daya!”

She put down the wooden basin and quickly walked to the two of them.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her in confusion. “What’s the matter?”

In her impression, she did not have much of a relationship with this village belle. The village belle looked down on her, and all the friends she liked went to curry favor with the village belle.

Su Jinniang looked a little nervous. She deliberately avoided looking at Wei Ting and stared at Su Xiaoxiao. “Why did you slander me just now? There’s clearly nothing between me and Wang Laizi! Are you deliberately ruining my reputation? How did I offend you?”

The village belle was a little angry.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Would you be willing to stand up for me if I didn’t say that?”

Su Jinniang held her breath and glanced at Wei Ting from the corner of her eye. “I... Of course, I will.”

Su Xiaoxiao sneered. “Su Jinniang, do you think I’m blind? When the village chief asked for someone who can prove my innocence, you pulled your mother away. What do you have to say to that?”

Su Jinniang denied it. “I didn’t pull my mother away!”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the sky speechlessly. “Your mouth is on you. You can say whatever you want.”

Su Jinniang’s face was filled with disappointment. “Su Daya, you’ve always been jealous of me since you were young and always went against me. I won’t bicker with you, but I never expected you to use such a method to take revenge on me!”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her in confusion. “No, Su Jinniang, what’s wrong with you today?”

Su Jinniang lowered her eyes. “Forget it. You know what you’ve done. That’s all I have to say. I hope you won’t continue to do stupid things in the future!”

With that, she turned around and left without any reluctance.

A cold wind blew, bringing with it the faint fragrance of her rouge.

After taking three steps, she turned around and sized up Su Xiaoxiao.

“Also, don’t learn to wear clothes like mine in the future.”

With that, she really left.

Su Jinniang was crazy! Exposing her shortcomings in front of Wei Ting?

“How ridiculous!”

Su Xiaoxiao patted the snow off her body and looked up to see Wei Ting looking at her without blinking.

She said righteously, “What are you looking at? Isn’t it just a few pieces of clothing? Can’t I wear what she wears?”

“You seem to have lost weight,” Wei Ting said.

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. “Huh?”

Wei Ting pointed at her sleeve. “It was tight here previously. When you changed my dressing, there was a red mark.”

Su Xiaoxiao blinked. “Are you so observant of me?”

Wei Ting mocked, “I’m wary of your hidden weapons!”

A woman could definitely float after being praised for losing weight. She did not care if Wei Ting insulted her.

Su Xiaoxiao lowered her head and touched her stomach. “Now that you mention it, I do feel that my clothes aren’t so full. Wei Ting, I’ve really lost weight!”

She looked up at him, her eyes sparkling with joy.

Wei Ting looked away and said calmly, “You’re just a little thinner than before. You’re still... ”

Su Xiaoxiao said fiercely, “Hold back your words!”
