Chapter 21 Shaking

"What are you all standing there for? Call the police! This is a perfect opportunity to go to the station together and get to the bottom of this! I want to see if he can continue to act so arrogantly and bully people like this!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, their faces showing hesitation.

Especially the Shen family's nephews, who kept their heads down and didn't say a word, but were all secretly making their own plans.

The family's farmland was entirely supported by Shen Cuifen's efforts in managing it.

If she gets arrested and sentenced, who will farm the land?

No one in the family can do that kind of heavy work.

Besides, Shen Cuifen was always beaten black and blue in the past, and no one ever thought of actually helping her.

Back then, who didn't just watch and stay far away?

At this moment, Lu Fuhua reacted the fastest.

He frowned, then quickly calmed down.

"Second brother, if this continues, something terrible might happen. I'll go and ask Dr. Chen to treat Dad's injuries."

Before he finished speaking, he had already turned around and was about to leave.

He knew very well that the most important thing right now was not to dwell on the issue of the police station.

However, the old man's condition was indeed not good, and it could not be delayed any longer.

Lu Fuquan nodded after listening.

He breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Okay."

He then abandoned his original plan to go to the police station.

After all, he knew that what if the old men and women went in?

This is a huge loss of face, and it probably means all my plans with Yanping are ruined.

If he gets too involved in this kind of thing, he'll never be able to hold his head up in the village again.

On the other side, Shen Cuifen stood there looking at her two sons.

Sure enough, as long as this matter doesn't threaten their own interests, they won't care how others are doing.

Even their own biological mothers are unwilling to truly step forward and lend a helping hand.

In contrast, Old Lady Zhao didn't think about it that complicatedly.

All she saw was that Shen Cuifen's head was wrapped in thick gauze.

A little blood seeped through the gauze, and I was a little anxious but didn't know the specifics.

How exactly did Shen Cuifen get injured?

How serious are the injuries?

She dared not think too much about it, but she also began to waver in her resolve.

If Lu Weidong is really arrested, the family will suddenly lose its pillar of support, and how will they live in the future?

After much deliberation, Old Lady Zhao finally sighed and wisely shut her mouth.

Lu Fuquan originally intended to go forward and help his father, Lu Weidong, to find a place to settle down.

However, just as he reached out to help, Lu Weidong cried out in pain, "Ouch!"

He winced in pain, his face contorted as he cursed, "You little brat, you have no sense of restraint! Are your eyes crooked? Can't you see where I'm hurt? You're just like your mother, wishing I'd die sooner!"

Upon hearing these words, Lu Fuquan's face immediately darkened. Without saying a word, he withdrew his hand again.

Lu Weidong was allowed to lie heavily back down in his original spot.

He rolled over and kept grumbling and complaining.

The room fell silent for a moment.

Only Lu Weidong's faint voice could be heard intermittently...

Dr. Chen arrived quickly.

Upon receiving the news, she rushed to the scene almost immediately.

Upon seeing Lu Weidong covered in blood, they were also startled.

"How did you do that?"

Before anyone else could even speak.

Lu Weidong immediately stopped groaning and hurriedly answered, "Oops, I accidentally fell down. It's my fault for being so careless."

His voice carried a hint of dry laughter.

Actually, he didn't want to admit in front of others that this miserable state was caused by Shen Cuifen beating him.

In that case, he would really have nowhere to put his face.

Dr. Chen glanced at Shen Cuifen, who stood calmly to the side, and said nothing, only his gaze lingered on her for a moment.

After completing the initial examination of Lu Weidong, his tense expression relaxed somewhat.

Her gaze swept around the room, finally landing on Chen Cuifen with a meaningful look.

The emotions in that glance were complex, a mixture of doubt and inquiry.

Although she concealed it very well.

But Shen Cuifen was not a slow-witted person; she caught that emotion, even though it was fleeting.

"It's nothing serious! At most, you'll bleed a little, you won't die, so stop yelling so loudly!"

Dr. Chen said irritably as he packed up the medical equipment.

Lu Weidong had been crying and screaming for his parents, as if he was in excruciating pain, and the noise was giving everyone a headache.

It should be noted that when Shen Cuifen's cheek was slashed, she didn't even have anesthesia during the stitches, and she didn't utter a sound.

On the contrary, the big man in front of them was screaming in pain, almost causing the roof to collapse.

Upon hearing this, Lu Weidong blushed with embarrassment. He felt aggrieved but dared not retort, and only then did he calm down slightly.

However, just as everyone in the room was about to leave, Old Mrs. Zhao couldn't sit still any longer.

She suddenly stood up, slapped her thigh and started shouting, so excited that spittle flew everywhere.

"How can you say it's nothing? Look how much blood your dad has lost from his head! So many wounds, how could he be okay? You people are so irresponsible!"

She pointed aggressively at Dr. Chen and the people next to him.

Unfortunately, Dr. Chen showed her no sympathy whatsoever. His face immediately darkened, and he even looked at her with a cold expression.

"It's just a few superficial wounds. It looks scary, but it's actually nothing serious. Not even the bones and tendons are damaged. Compared to Shen Cuifen, even a headache is nothing."

After all, Shen Cuifen's previous illness was a serious one that everyone could see.

Even if she wanted to make a scene, she couldn't find a reason to argue.

So, Old Lady Zhao awkwardly stopped talking, muttered a few words of dissatisfaction, and didn't dare to continue arguing.

At this moment, the brothers Lu Fuquan and Lu Fuhua, who had been silent all along, quietly stepped forward and carefully helped Lu Weidong up.

They supported their father's body with one hand and held his shoulder with the other.

The two of them slowly and carefully helped Lu Weidong to a chair and helped him sit down.

Dr. Chen took out iodine and gauze and quickly treated the wound.

Although it looks a bit scary, the injury is actually not serious and doesn't even require stitches.

As he bandaged his wound, he casually remarked, "It's alright, nothing serious."

"One dollar and fifty cents!"

After treating the wound, Dr. Chen turned to look at Lu Weidong beside him and gestured for him to pay the medical bill.

Lu Weidong stood there, his expression extremely complex.

His gaze involuntarily swept towards Shen Cuifen.

He then deliberately turned his face away, pretending not to have heard what he said.

Shen Cuifen, who was standing to the side, was able to hold on.
