Chapter 15: Unlucky Star

"Are the rice flowers not fully recovered yet?" Liu asked with concern.

"No! Sister-in-law, you don't know!"

When Sun mentioned this, her voice became uncontrollably sharp and high-pitched, but before she could finish her words, she was hit by the elbow of the second son Xia Yougui, and she stopped talking awkwardly.

The fifth daughter-in-law Cheng smiled and said:

"Sister-in-law, go ask Yinhua how Daohua fell. Once we find the culprit, we can find someone to pay for the medical expenses!"

Liu rolled her eyes and said, "If Yinhua knew, she would have told me long ago! How could you be the one to remember this?"

Although she said this, Liu was actually very unsure.

The day Daohua was injured happened to be the day when Mr. Feng, a wealthy landlord in the village, married his daughter.

Xia Youcai specially asked for leave from the restaurant owner, and returned to the village with Liu, to help the Feng family with the wedding.

Dalang was studying at Songxi Academy. The academy had strict management and did not allow students to take leave easily. So Liu only brought back her two daughters, Jinhua and Yinhua.

I don't know why it's so small!

When Daohua fell on the edge of the well, Yinhua and a little girl named Huiping from the village were both there.

Daohua fell and broke her head, and blood was flowing out. The two little girls were shocked.

Yinhua ran back home, said nothing, threw herself into Liu's arms, and cried with red eyes.

After asking twice and getting no answer, Liu lost her patience and told Jinhua to coax her sister.

Jinhua took out some old hairbands and silk flowers from her dressing box and coaxed Yinhua into picking out two pieces. It didn't take long before she had persuaded Yinhua to pick out two.

After that, Liu put the matter behind her and didn't take it seriously at all.

Who would have thought that after Huiping got over her fear, she actually called on the villagers to come and save Daohua.

When the villagers saw Daohua's pale face and bleeding appearance, no one dared to touch her! They hurried to Xia's house to report the news.

When the Xia family received the news, they were thrown into chaos.

Especially the useless Jiang, she cried so hard that she fell to the ground.

Old Madam Zhou was able to hold on. However, after using two handfuls of plant ash on Daohua and even burning a handful of hair to ashes, the bleeding still didn't stop, so she started to panic.

At that time, some elderly people said that Daohua was probably dead. Not only had she lost so much blood, but the bleeding could not be stopped. She was probably beyond saving.

He also told Jiang and Xia Youtian to be more open-minded and make preparations for their funeral as soon as possible.

With such a thing happening at home, Mr. Feng couldn't help but feel that it was unlucky.

No matter how much he tried to persuade her, she would not let Jinhua marry his daughter. He also refused to let Liu, a "blessed woman" with both sons and daughters, parents and parents-in-law, become a "blessed wife".

When talking about this incident, Liu couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards Daohua.

This child, isn't he a jinx?

Mr. Feng, how difficult is it to talk to him on weekdays? I finally got a chance to get to know him, but it was ruined by this damn girl!

Why didn't she just die?

However, Liu could only keep these thoughts in her heart and dare not speak them out. If she dared to speak them out, not only would everyone in the fourth room resent her, but even the old couple would be angry with her.

At that time, Daohua was dying and it was clear that she could not be saved. However, Zhou was so angry that she scolded the old man who had instructed the couple in the fourth room to prepare for her funeral.

Then, Zhou asked Old Man Xia to drive the carriage borrowed from the head of the village to deliver the rice flowers to Puji Hall in the town.

Not only did Zhou follow him in person, she also generously took out some silver.

Jiang also went with them, but she just cried from beginning to end. When it was her turn to take the money, she couldn't even fart.

This scourge of rice flowers is really lucky.

Doctor Wang is someone that not many people can invite. He only sees patients three times in Puji Hall in a month, and she unexpectedly caught up with him!

Liu took several deep breaths before she finally suppressed her resentment towards Daohua.

Fortunately, Xia Youtian's eyes have never wandered around.

While speaking, he was only looking at his elder brother and never glanced at his elder sister-in-law's face.

The always perceptive old lady Zhou didn't bother to pay attention to her, but was busy paying attention to her granddaughter-in-law Zhu's belly.

Liu suddenly began to resent Huiping again.

Who asked her to meddle in other people's business? But she ended up making Yinhua look so heartless!

Yinhua's reputation was ruined, and Jinhua, as her biological sister, was inevitably implicated.

Things haven't been going smoothly when arranging a marriage for Jinhua recently!

Liu had a vague suspicion that several wealthy families who were originally interested in Jinhua had all backed off, fearing that it had something to do with Yinhua's behavior when Daohua was injured.

After all, it was all the fault of that unlucky Daohua!

When Liu thought of this, she couldn't help but feel so angry that her teeth were itching.

She struggled to suppress the irritation in her heart, put on a smiling face again, and tried her best to entertain her mother-in-law and several difficult sisters-in-law.

Especially the Sun and Wu families.

She said nice things, but in fact, every word she said was secretly mocking herself for hiding in the town and enjoying herself, and refusing to go back to the village to take care of the elderly with them.

In fact, Mr. Xia and Mrs. Zhou are both in good health, so why do they need anyone to serve them?

They are just jealous that they can live in town!

Liu responded with a few grunts and haws, and exchanged words with Sun and Wu.

Cheng would occasionally interject a few words. I didn't notice it on weekdays, but this fifth son's wife was actually a master at fanning the flames.

Jiang never showed up again. She hadn't come back since she sent Daohua away.

Liu thought of Daohua's overly pale face and couldn't help but hold on to a faint hope - if something really happened to that jinx, she could vent her anger!

The fourth family was unaware of Liu's hostility.

At this moment, Jiang had already entered the kitchen and started preparing dinner.

Xia Daohua had a bad impression of the eldest wife from the beginning. Now she was gathered with Lihua, Linghua and Wulang, carefully reconstructing the scene of the accident.

"So, Yinhua and Huiping were the only ones who saw it?"

"That should be the case, but Yinhua didn't say anything when she came back! I will remember her for this forever!" Lihua said bitterly, "When I think about it now, I get scared! If it weren't for Huiping, our Daohua might be..."

Lihua couldn't continue speaking, her eyes were filled with tears.

She raised her head and blinked back all the tears:

"If Daohua doesn't survive, I will throw Yinhua into the well!"

Xia Daohua was silent for a moment, then raised her hand to cover Lihua's hand: "Sister..."
