"Hey, what are you talking about, old woman? I'm trying to persuade you with good intentions, but you're blaming me? He's not my biological brother, you can go or not."
"With your condition, don't tell me I don't have money. Even if I have money, I won't lend it to you. What the hell is this?"
"No wonder the whole family is so hardworking but is getting poorer and poorer. This is the reason!"
Someone nearby advised him: "Don't bother with old women. What do they know? It's not worth it."
Seeing that the situation had come to a standstill, Li Xiaoqin quickly ran to Chen Chunshu and said, "Brother, can you borrow some money from others first?"
"We have to send Qiu Shu to the hospital first. What if the finger can be reattached?"
But no matter what she said, Shen Chunshu just lowered his head and said nothing.
He even avoided her gaze and didn't dare to look her in the eye.
Seeing how heartless he was, Li Xiaoqin couldn't help crying and yelling at the couple, "Don't forget why Qiu Shu came here. Wasn't it to help you find your son?"
"If it wasn't for helping you, how could we get up in the middle of the night and run over someone else's house to pry open the door and climb over the wall?"
"Now that something's happened, you two are acting like cowards? Qiu Shu is your brother, and as the eldest brother, is this how you treat him?"
At this time, Shen Qiushu also whimpered and cried for Shen Chunshu: "Brother, please save me. If I don't go to the hospital, I will die. My blood is almost drained! I don't want to die."
There were some people standing there watching the excitement who were honest and straightforward. After hearing what Chen Qiushu said, they opened their mouths to comfort him: "It's okay, you won't die. Didn't the doctor bandage you up?"
Chen Qiushu was already feeling a little dizzy from the bleeding, and he almost passed out after hearing these words.
Where did this idiot come from?
Can't you tell the height of the eyebrows?
If he didn't say so, how could he force Shen Chunshu to send him to the health center?
Shen Chunshu, who was forced into a corner, looked at Li Xiaoqin awkwardly: "Look at what you two are saying? Qiu Shu is my brother, how can I not care?"
After that, he shamelessly said to the people present: "Everyone has seen this situation. If anyone has extra money, can you give us some first?"
He didn't speak to anyone in particular. Everyone just looked at each other, but no one said anything.
Shen Chunshu spread his hands towards Li Xiaoqin and said, "Look, you asked me to borrow it, and I did, but I can't borrow it!"
Li Xiaoqin was so angry at Shen Chunshu's perfunctory attitude.
Do you really want to borrow money?
This is how to deal with her!!!
Li Xiaoqin closed her eyes, knowing that she could no longer count on Chen Chunshu.
She walked up to Liu Changshan and said, "Village Chief, can you lend me your donkey cart? I can drive Qiushu to town by myself."
She thought it was not difficult, so she asked.
Unexpectedly, when Liu Changshan heard this, his face suddenly turned ugly. Before he could speak, some villagers present disagreed.
"No, no, the last time your family borrowed a donkey, it almost caused our village's donkey to be seized. This time, I won't lend it to you no matter what."
"It's almost spring and we're going to plow the land. I absolutely cannot lend you the donkey anymore."
After his reminder, everyone remembered the last time the village organized people to go to Lamagou to ask for donkeys.
Someone agreed: "Yes, and besides, his injury is his hand, not his leg. I think he can just walk there. Why would he need to borrow a donkey cart?"
Some people who were not on good terms with the Shen family deliberately said, "Your pockets are cleaner than your face. What do you have to take to the hospital? Are you planning to sell the donkey for money?"
Although this statement is outrageous, some people actually believe it.
"That's right. Look at how poor the Shen family is now. Everyone is starving to the point of being skin and bones. I'm telling you, I heard that they still owe that educated youth from the city several dollars."
Someone immediately became curious: "Oh, could it be that this is why the educated youth is in such a hurry to move out of the Shen family?"
"I guess so. Look at the state of their family now. The old lady is paralyzed, the father and son's legs were broken, and the youngest son had a finger chopped off."
"Oh my, the Shen family is in big trouble. We should stay away from them to avoid bringing bad luck to ourselves."
People in the countryside attach great importance to the concept of luck. When everyone heard that the Shen family was having bad luck, they were so scared that they all took a few steps back.
At the same time, the disgust in his eyes couldn't be hidden at all.
Li Xiaoqin was forced to explain by the gazes of the people around her: "No... no... we are not unlucky, how can everyone be like this?"
But the current situation of the Shen family is clearly laid out before everyone.
It's not something she can cover up with just a few words.
Some people who were not used to the recent behavior of the Shen family took the opportunity to teach their own kids: "You still have to be honest in your life. If you take those crooked ways, you will suffer retribution sooner or later. If you don't believe me, just look at the Shen family, a ready-made example."
Finally, Liu Changshan couldn't stand it anymore and said, "I can't lend you my donkey. If you really want to go to town, I'll give you my wheelbarrow!"
This type of cart has only one wheel and relies solely on the strength of the person pushing it.
Li Xiaoqin was a little scared to let a frail woman like her push Shen Qiushu so far to the town.
So he turned his attention to Shen Chunshu again: "Brother, push Qiushu, I will follow."
Chen Chunshu was still a little reluctant: "Will it be useful to go there? The finger has been missing for such a long time, how can it be reattached? Just get some medicine in the village!"
