After the rooster crowed, a sliver of white appeared in the sky, and the tranquil morning in Xishan Village was shattered by a scream.

"Ahhh..."

When Wang Laowu's wife opened the gate to the courtyard, she saw a figure lying at the entrance. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was her husband and couldn't help but scream loudly.

Last night, as usual, Wang Laowu sneaked out in the middle of the night. As his wife, I always knew that he was either going to steal chickens or pet dogs.

As long as Wang Laowu remembers to rummage through the house, she won't bother him.

Previously, that widow Yang wanted to take her place in the Wang family, so she took action and taught her a lesson.

Originally, she would turn a blind eye to it.

Her husband didn't come home all night, so she woke up early. Although she was muttering to herself, she wasn't too worried.

When she found Wang Laowu lying in the snow at the gate, his life hanging in the balance, his face charred black, the hairs on her body stood on end.

In the dead of winter, with no rain or thunder, why does my man look like he's been struck by lightning?

After noticing this strange phenomenon, she tried to drag Wang Laowu back into the house, but it was too late.

Aunt Wu was always the first one to arrive at the farm every day, so when Wang Laowu's wife screamed, she just stepped out of her front door.

Together with Wang Laowu's wife, they saw Wang Laowu's face covered in soot.

"Fifth Brother's wife, what's wrong with Fifth Brother?"

Seeing that Wang Laowu was not moving, Aunt Wu was startled and quickly ran forward, trying to reach under Wang Laowu's nose to feel it.

As soon as I touched Wang Laowu's skin, a chill ran through my fingers.

Startled, she quickly withdrew her hand and stammered, "Fifth Brother's wife, we'd better take him to the clinic right away!"

If it gets too late, I'm afraid it will be too late to save them!

Actually, what she wanted to say was that if it got any later, her whole body would probably be cold.

However, since Wang Laowu had an accident, his wife must have been feeling bad too, so she changed her story.

After Aunt Wu finished speaking, she thought that Wang Laowu's family only had two half-grown boys, plus Laowu's wife.

It would take the three of them to get to the health center, and who knows how long that would take.

“Mingqiang… Mingqiang…”

Aunt Wu turned her head and shouted loudly into her own yard.

"Hey, Mom, what's wrong? Huh, what happened?"

Fu Mingqiang was puzzled when he heard his mother's shouts. He tilted his head back and gulped down the rice soup in the bowl.

Then he wiped his mouth and hurriedly ran out.

Before his mother could answer, they saw Wang Laowu lying on the ground, looking like a piece of charcoal.

"Quick, Mingqiang, carry Wang Laowu to the clinic. I just touched his face, and it was very cold."

Aunt Wu said to her son with some fear.

Upon hearing this, Fu Mingqiang's expression changed.

He quickly stepped forward and reached out to touch Wang Laowu's chest.

“It’s still warm, Mom. I’m going to the clinic on your back. Tell the village chief, Sister-in-law, quickly get some money and come with me.”

After Fu Mingqiang finished speaking, he bent down, carried Wang Laowu on his back, and ran towards the health center.

When Wang Laowu's wife heard that she was going to get money, she hesitated for a moment.

You know, the family doesn't have much money.

If we take the money to pay for Wang Laowu's medical treatment, the child won't have money to pay tuition after spring.

However, it was clear that neither Aunt Wu nor Fu Mingqiang gave her a chance to refuse.
