Chapter 240 Old Five Broke His Leg

In the township clinic, Mu Jingrong was lying on the hospital bed, the tough little guy wiping his tears.

Old Man Mu and Old Lady Mu accompanied and comforted her, but how could words of comfort alleviate the physical pain?

The rural clinic was poor and could only provide conservative treatment. But the doctor said that Mu Jingrong's fracture was quite serious and it would be best for him to go to the county town for surgery.

How much does the surgery cost?

For old man Mu, who had been a farmer all his life and had a low level of education, it was like the sky had fallen.

It was even more panicked than when Li Lan was admitted to the county hospital for premature delivery.

After all, Li Lan is a person of another surname, and Mu Jingrong is his own biological son!

"Dad, Mom, where's Lao Wu?"

Mu Jingyun and Mu Jingzhou rushed in first. Su Tang was pregnant and it was not suitable for her to run, so Yu Miaomiao walked behind her.

Seeing his son, Old Man Mu seemed to have regained his resolve and said, "His leg is broken. Send him to the county hospital for treatment. If he can't be cured, Old Five's leg will be crippled."

"Is it so serious?" Mu Jingzhou came to the bedside and looked at Mu Jingrong.

The little tough guy felt pain and fear, tears welled up in his eyes: "Third brother..."

"It's okay, we'll transfer to another hospital." Mu Jingzhou's face was solemn and his heart was hanging in the balance.

"You're trying to comfort someone with such a sullen face." Mu Jingyun pushed him away and smiled at Lao Wu. "Just transfer him to another hospital. What are you afraid of? The county hospital will definitely be able to treat him."

"But mother said it would cost a lot of money..." Mu Jingrong looked pitiful, but he didn't dare to go to the county hospital for the operation by himself.

My parents kept complaining that the family was poor and that they definitely didn't have the money to pay for his surgery.

"Money is not a problem." Mu Jingzhou's face was tense and his heart was in pain.

When children from poor families encounter problems, the first thing they think of is money. When will they stop worrying about money?

"Third brother, I know you and second brother have borrowed a lot of debts to run the factory. Don't comfort me." Mu Jingrong drooped his brows and didn't believe that there was money to treat his legs.

"What's the situation?" Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao came and asked.

Mu Jingzhou turned around and saw his wife's pregnant belly, and his hands hanging at his sides slowly clenched into fists.

His children must not live under the shadow of poverty!

"He needs to be transferred to the county hospital for surgery." Mu Jingzhou replied.

Mu Jingrong looked at his two sisters-in-law anxiously, not daring to say a word.

My parents say they don’t have any money, but my second and third brothers are already married. Can they raise the “huge sum” to pay for his surgery?

My third sister-in-law is pregnant, so they must be short of money, right?

"Then why waste time? Let's get going." Yu Miaomiao made a prompt decision, "We have our own car, so let's drive away."

Mu Jingrong opened his eyes wide: "Second sister-in-law, do we have a car?"

"I borrowed it." Yu Miaomiao smiled at the little tough guy, "Don't worry, you just have a broken bone, it's not a big problem."

"Your bones are broken, and you're not in serious trouble?" Old Lady Mu glared at Yu Miaomiao unhappily, "You're not injured, so you don't know how painful it is!"

"I'm paying, does it hurt?" Yu Miaomiao directly retorted.

Old Mrs. Mu fell silent immediately.

"Third brother, go and complete the transfer procedures." Su Tang shouted.

Mu Jingzhou responded and went to sign various documents. In less than ten minutes, Mu Jingrong got on the jeep.

Afraid that the injury would be aggravated by the seizure and limping on the road, they let Mu Jingrong lie on the back seat and covered it with a thick quilt.

But in this case, the car won't be able to accommodate many people.

"Wife, go home and wait." Mu Jingzhou said to Su Tang.

Su Tang took out two hundred yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Mu Jingzhou's pocket: "Be careful on the road, and try not to touch Fifth Brother's legs again."

"knew."

Two hundred dollars!

Old Lady Mu's eyes were wide open. After the car left, she asked Su Tang, "Isn't the money you brought back in Xiao Yu's hands?"

"Oh, it's my turn to keep it today." Su Tang didn't say that this was something she brought extra.

Sure enough, it came in handy.

Old Mrs. Mu was embarrassed and whispered to Old Man Mu: "I thought they each had two hundred..."

"Fortunately, the money was not compensated to the Liu family, otherwise how can we treat the fifth brother's illness now?" Old Man Mu said with great relief.

Su Tang heard it all, rolled her eyes and walked home.

As for how much money it would cost to treat Lao Wu, she had never thought about it. Anyway, it was right to treat him!

The little tough guy is growing up and he can't be left with disabilities.

If the county town can’t cure it, go to the provincial capital!

The villagers have heard about the fifth son's broken leg, and they also heard from Gao Ming that the second and third sons were taken to the provincial capital for treatment, with the money being given by the third son's wife. They all praised Su Tang for being sensible.

On the way from the village entrance to her home, Su Tang herself didn't know how many times she had been stopped and how many compliments she had received.

The daughter-in-law paid for her brother-in-law's medical treatment, making Old Man and Old Lady Mu look extremely incompetent.

As a result, both of them were in a bad mood and stayed in their rooms when they got home.

Mu Jingyuan was washing diapers in the yard. When he saw Su Tang coming back, he just looked up and didn't even say hello.

Su Tang shook her head. Without her third brother and Miaomiao, this place felt like her home.

Not even as good as the Su family!

At least in the Su family, everyone is harmonious.

Everyone in the Mu family had a stern face and the atmosphere was depressing, as if she owed them money.

Su Tang went back to her room and lay down. Just as she was about to fall asleep, someone knocked on the door: "Third brother's wife."

"Sister-in-law?" Su Tang sat up and turned on the light.

Under the dim light, Li Lan's sallow face and gloomy eyes almost made Su Tang think that she saw something "unclean".

"You've been back for a few days, but we still haven't talked." Li Lan leaned against the door and didn't come in.

Su Tang said "Oh" and waited for what was to come.

Li Lan was waiting for her to respond, but nothing happened. She lost her patience and spoke again, "Wang Juan is the future sister-in-law of my third brother's wife, right?"

"Yes!" Su Tang yawned, "Sister-in-law, you want to talk about that lipstick? I asked, and it was Liu Feng'er who bought it from Wang Juan for five yuan."

"Does the Wang family know about her and your eldest brother?" Li Lan asked.

"I don't know! How would they know?" Su Tang asked back with blinking eyes.

"I don't believe it!" Li Lan snorted, "I've asked around, and Liu Feng'er and Wang Juan have the best relationship."

"No matter how good the relationship is, you can't say that you are not a womanizer and have an affair with a man, right?" Su Tang smiled, "Sister-in-law, you think too much! That incident has passed and no one knows about it."

Li Lan pursed her lips coldly and said, "Third sister-in-law, I am kindly reminding you. Anyone who has anything to do with the Liu family is not a good person. Your eldest brother had better not marry Wang Juan."

"What should we do? They are about to get engaged." Su Tang spread her hands, "And sister-in-law, I think you can't say that about the Liu family. Liu Feng'er is not kind, but I heard from my second sister-in-law that the Liu family's parents came to our house last night. They are very righteous."

"That's because they're worried that their daughter will be ruined." Li Lan said, "Of course, I also thanked them last night."

Su Tang was confused: "What do you mean, sister-in-law?"

It's like he's schizophrenic. He thanks people but also says it's not good to have a family. What exactly does he want to express?

"If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked. Some things are hereditary. I am just reminding you with good intentions." Li Lan said.

"Oh, then thank you! But I don't accept it." Su Tang rejected Li Lan's provocation.

Wang Juan is fine. She won't go back to her parents' home to cause trouble.

Besides, whether Wang Juan is good or not has little to do with her. Brothers and sisters get married and live their own lives.

If we get along well, we should visit each other more often. If we don’t, we should see each other less often. As long as Big Brother lives a good life, that’s all.

"You don't know how to appreciate kindness!" Li Lan snorted, "I discussed it with my parents today and decided to let your elder brother go to work in your factory."
