"Of course we should send our dad to the county hospital for surgery first!" Shen Qingli took out the letter of introduction issued by Dr. Liu with the seal of the commune hospital on it.
"Aren't Dad and Big Brother's leg injuries fake? Why do they still need to go to the hospital for surgery?" Shen Qingyang looked at Shen Qingli in confusion.
"Speaking of pretense, I have to say a few words!" Zhao Xiufen stood up with a sullen face, then glanced coldly at everyone present. "You hid such a big thing from me. Do you still regard me as your mother and your wife?"
When she saw her husband and eldest son lying in a pool of blood, she was so scared that her heart almost stopped.
Only later did I realize that all this was just a trap set by my husband and children.
The purpose is to separate the family smoothly.
The blood was not that of her husband and son, but the pheasant blood they had prepared in advance.
"Wife, I can explain!" Seeing that his wife was angry, Shen Ming'an hurriedly helped her sit down again.
"Speak!" Zhao Xiufen snorted coldly.
Shen Mingan winked at Shen Qingli, wanting this eloquent old girl to help him through the difficult times.
Zhao Xiufen glanced at her husband and asked, "Are you having a cramp in your mouth or your eyes?"
The caught Shen Mingan chuckled, trying to get away with it: "Um... I'm just trying to practice my facial expressions, yes, practice my facial expressions!"
But when he turned around, he quickly gave Shen Qingli a death stare.
My daughter, it's time for you to show off!
Shen Qingli had no choice but to accept her fate and go forward to explain to her mother.
"Mom, don't be angry. My dad is afraid that after you know the truth, you won't be able to express your true feelings like this anymore!"
"Ah, yes, yes!" Shen Ming'an, Shen Qingyu, Shen Qingxuan, and Shen Qingyang nodded in agreement.
"You are saying in disguise that I am simple-minded and have bad acting skills, right?" Zhao Xiufen glared at a few people.
"That's not my intention!" Shen Mingan rejected it immediately.
Just kidding. Although he thought so in his heart, he absolutely could not admit it. He didn't want to sleep on the floor every day in the future.
"Alas!" Zhao Xiufen sighed, "Forget it this time, but don't hide anything from me in the future."
The husband and children's concerns are not unfounded.
If she had known in advance, she might have been exposed.
Now everyone in the village knows that her husband and eldest son have injured their legs.
Then they are one step closer to separation.
······
At this time, the people in Xiaorongshu Village not only knew that Shen Mingan and Shen Qingyu had injured their legs, but also knew that their legs could not be treated in the commune hospital and had been transferred to the county hospital.
Even the county hospital may not be able to provide a good treatment.
Because not only did they break their bones, but their tendons were also severed.
"Oh my god, it's a good thing that I went there a step late, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to save my leg!" A villager said to others with a look of relief.
"What happened? How did Ming'an and Xiaoyu injure their legs?" other villagers asked curiously.
"That idiot has gone crazy again!"
"Yes, I saw from a distance that Shen Qingyu suddenly started swinging a hoe around, and then his father went to stop him, but he cut his leg off. Afterwards, he was probably frightened by his father's blood, and in the confusion he cut his own leg off as well."
"Yes, that's what I saw."
"I rushed over afterwards and saw that the bleeding wouldn't stop!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, this leg is probably useless!"
"The Shen family only has two full-time laborers like this. They're finished now."
"Isn't there Zhao Xiufen?"
"No matter how capable she is, she is just a woman. Can she support the Shen family?"
"Didn't he get sent to the county hospital? Maybe he can be cured."
"I think it's pretty bad. Even if the hamstring injury can be healed, it won't be the same as before!"
Old Mrs. Shen in the crowd did not join in the discussion, but listened quietly and went home quietly.
"Old man, let me tell you..." Old Mrs. Shen repeated the villagers' discussions to Old Man Shen one by one.
Old Man Shen listened quietly to Old Lady Shen's retelling, and finally fell into deep thought.
"Why do you think that idiot suddenly went crazy?" asked Old Mrs. Shen in confusion.
"Is it abnormal for a fool to go crazy?" Old man Shen rolled his eyes at Old lady Shen.
"I just feel it's a pity. Our family now depends entirely on the third brother and his wife and that idiot to earn work points!" said Old Mrs. Shen regretfully.
"The third wife will have to leave sooner or later! Don't spoil the eldest couple anymore. Let them take over the third wife's job and earn work points as soon as possible. Otherwise, what will you do in the future? Earn enough work points yourself?" Old man Shen took out his pipe and filled it with tobacco leaves.
Earn full work points?
She now struggles to earn eight work points and is as tired as a dog.
"Okay, I understand!" Old Mrs. Shen nodded helplessly.
I can't do it myself, so I have to ask my eldest son and daughter-in-law to do it.
And those grandsons who are worthless in their studies.
I might as well drop out of school and come back to earn work points.
"With two less laborers, our family will have much less food." Old Mrs. Shen said with concern.
"Don't we still have the third brother's wife? Qingli is also earning money. At worst, we can ask her to pay more in the future, which will be regarded as the food expenses for the third brother and Qingyu." Old man Shen struck a match and lit the pipe.
"It's better to give them all to her!" Thinking of the dozens of dollars in royalties Shen Qingli earned every time she translated, Old Lady Shen became envious.
That black-hearted money-loser only hands over ten dollars a month. He's too stingy.
"A-choo! A-choo!" Shen Qingli, who was far away in the county town, suddenly sneezed twice.
