Chapter 205 Cutting Meat

Chapter 205 Cutting Meat

Ma Lian already has a sense of crisis. She can no longer stay in this family. If her parents can sell her once, they can sell her twice. She has to prepare early.

But Ma Lian was still naive. She thought that only her parents wanted to sell her. However, in a corner that she could not see, Ma Lian's two sisters-in-law covered each other and carefully mixed sleeping pills into the food.

After the family had dinner that night, Ma's parents and Ma Lian went to bed early because of the effect of the medicine.

The two sisters-in-law and their husbands went into Ma Lian's room with knives in hand. They came out half an hour later. The two younger brothers hurried out with a small bowl containing a piece of blood and meat in their hands.

The two sisters-in-law carefully bandaged the wounds of the sleeping Ma Lian. They were so nervous that sweat broke out on their foreheads because the customer wanted more meat this time.

The two sisters-in-law did not dare to cut the meat in one place, so they just separated the thighs into two and cut a small piece of meat from each leg, which resulted in the bloody scene we have now. To be honest, it's a bit scary.

Two people sprinkled handfuls of hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs, and wrapped it with layer upon layer of gauze, and only then did the bleeding stop.

When the two came out of the room, their husbands had already returned and were sitting in the living room, happily counting a stack of big unity coins in their hands.

It was a full five hundred yuan, not a penny less, and each family got half, which was exactly two hundred and fifty yuan.

After the two families checked, they happily returned to their rooms and went to sleep. When Ma Lian woke up the next day, she found that her flesh had been cut again.

Ma Lian started cursing again, and then the Ma family's parents began to curse at their two sons and daughter-in-law. The two sons and daughter-in-law pretended to be deaf and dumb and hid in the room and refused to come out. Anyway, the money was in their hands, and it was impossible to ask them to spit it out.

Ma Lian cursed for the whole morning and started to have a fever in the afternoon. Because the wound was not treated properly, it became infected and inflamed. Ma Lian was in a coma for a whole week and almost died in bed.

The Ma family was almost scared. If they killed their sister for a little money, would they be caught?

Ma Lian's condition is serious, but the Ma family dare not take Ma Lian to the hospital, for fear that people will see the wounds on Ma Lian's body, which will eventually lead to some trouble.

So Ma Lian’s brother had to go to the hospital to get medicine, pretending that someone in the family had injured their hand, which led to a fever and an infected wound, and then he got a bunch of medicine.

The Ma family took turns taking care of her for a week and tried every possible way to save Ma Lian's life. When Ma Lian woke up from her coma, a week had passed.

The wound on her leg had become anti-inflammatory due to the medication applied, and with the addition of various antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs taken orally, Ma Lian's condition stabilized.

In the past half month, people have been coming to harass the Ma family, still wanting to buy meat, but this time no one dared to respond. They were really afraid that Ma Lian would die.

Ma Lian lay in bed for half a month before she recovered a little strength. She knew she had to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise, as soon as she recovered, she would be cut and bled again.

This time she was lucky and the wound just became inflamed and caused a fever, but what about next time? She might even lose her life next time.

So Ma Lian pretended to be weak until her two younger brothers went to work, the children at home went to school, and her two sisters-in-law were not at home.

My father took the money he earned from selling meat and happily went out to drink tea and play chess with others.

Ma Lian immediately said that she was sticky and wanted to take a shower, so she asked her mother to boil some water. The Ma family lived in a tube-shaped building and there was no kitchen inside the house, so they could only boil water outside, and water could only be fetched from the water rooms on both sides.

Ma Lian's mother took a bucket and a basin and went to the water room to fetch water. Ma Lian immediately got out of bed, put on some simple clothes, took the things she had packed earlier, and took the opportunity when her mother was fetching water in the water room to run out of the house.

But Ma Lian overestimated her body. The wound on her leg had not scabbed due to inflammation. Now that it had finally scabbed, it was only a thin layer.

Due to Ma Lian's intense movement, the wound soon split open and blood flowed out. The severe pain slowed down Ma Lian's movements.

As soon as she ran downstairs, she was discovered by Ma Lian's biological mother. She immediately called Ma Lian and turned around to go downstairs to bring Ma Lian back.

Ma Lian was not as she wished. If she went back, she would lose her life. She immediately hugged a pillar beside her and shouted for help: "Help, help, who can save me? I'm injured, I need to go to the hospital."

There were already quite a few people in the tube building, and when Ma Lian called out, they all leaned their heads out to see what was going on. Then they saw that Ma Lian's trouser legs were stained with blood.

Suddenly someone cried out: "Oh my god, come quickly, there is blood."

"Isn't this the girl from the Ma family? What happened? Why is she bleeding so much?"

Many people were whispering, and some people came forward to help Ma Lian and wanted to send her to the hospital.

Ma Lian's biological mother had already run downstairs. She stopped Ma Lian from leaving: "No, no, we don't need to go to the hospital. We have medicine at home."

Ma Lian immediately started to make a scene: "Don't listen to my mother. I'm going to die if I stay at home any longer. Please save me."

Ma Lian's words made the bystanders feel that something was wrong.

Ma Lian's mother wanted to cover her mouth when she heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about, you dead girl? You crawled out of my belly, how can I harm you?"

Ma Lian pushed her mother away and said, "You won't hurt me, you just want to cut off my flesh and sell it for money.

I am a human being, not a pig. Even if you want to kill a pig and eat its meat, you still have to kill the pig. You actually want to cut off my meat, a living person. It’s not enough to cut off my meat once, you do it again.

I'm telling you, I'm not going to stay at home anymore, you'd better let me go, or I'll call the police and neither of us will be in any danger."

The people around who heard this were immediately shocked. What? Selling meat for money?

Wow! The Ma family really wants money over daughters!

It seems that those who came with money to buy meat to treat their patients a few days ago had their wish come true. Look at the blood on Ma Lian's legs. I wonder how much flesh was cut off and whether it will grow back in the future?

Ma Lian's biological mother was a little scared after being threatened by her daughter, so she didn't dare to stop her. Ma Lian was taken out of the family compound by some enthusiastic neighbors and sent to the nearest hospital for treatment.

Ma Lian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she had escaped the clutches of the devil, but she did not expect that less than two hours after she had treated her wounds, a comrade would come to investigate.

"Hello, Comrade Ma, we have received a report that someone is promoting feudal superstition and using human flesh to cure diseases, and your parents are using this method to make huge profits.

You are the victim of this incident, is this true? "

Ma Lian...

She was a little panicked. Although she was treated like this by her parents and brother, she still didn't want to make the matter public, because if it got out of hand, she would not be able to explain herself to Xia's parents.

In addition, her feudal ideology made her very afraid of meeting an official. Ma Lian immediately denied it: "No, no, this is nonsense!

They are my biological parents, how could they treat me like that? Someone must have been playing a prank on me."
