Chapter 68 Breaking Du Jiang's Leg
Du Xiuxiu scratched her head and thought for a while: "I vaguely remember that I celebrated my birthday after eating mooncakes."
Yu Hanyan's heart stagnated, she pulled Du Wanwan and whispered to her: "This little sister you picked up probably had a good family life when she was young. Farmers rarely celebrate birthdays, and those who can afford to celebrate birthdays are rich people."
Du Wanwan also realized this, but she didn't say it. No matter what Xiuxiu's family did before, they are now her family.
Yao Meixian also frowned slightly, then relaxed: "Then you are younger than Wen Huo. He was born in April, so you will be the youngest in the family from now on."
"Yes! I remember."
Du Xiuxiu looked at Yao Meixian, then at Du Jiang who was busy boiling lard not far away, and Du Wenjun who was chopping a duck, and there was a rare joy in her eyes.
She finally had a place to stay. If her elder sister hadn't saved her, she might have starved to death in the city. From today on, she also had parents and brothers and sisters.
It’s great that she is no longer alone and doesn’t have to wander around in the future.
Yu Hanyan sat for a while before being called back by Mrs. Qian, who said the chicken was ready and asked her to go back and eat.
Yao Meixian took over Du Jiang's job of boiling lard. The pork was quite fatty, weighing about four or five pounds. She boiled a small clay pot of oil, which made her smile from ear to ear.
My daughter is very capable. She knew that there was no oil at home, so she went to the city to buy some. We had duck tonight, and she packed up the lard.
I take it out to satisfy my daughter's craving when she can't eat.
The duck is fat, but there are many people in the family. If we eat one meal at night and another one tomorrow morning, it will all be gone.
Du Wanwan didn't plan to take out the big meat buns in her backpack tonight. She would heat them up tomorrow morning and share them with everyone to fill their stomachs at noon.
Du Xiuxiu was very well-behaved and took over Du Jiang's job of making fire.
Du Jiang knew that it was brought back by his daughter, so he didn't say anything. It was a good thing for the girl to rush to do the work, so he didn't stop her and let her do it if she wanted.
Since we are a family, we should be more casual. Being too polite will make us seem distant.
Back to the wheelbarrow, the daughter let him sit on it and gave him a glass of water: "Dad! Drink it, I will start to treat your leg."
Du Jiang held the water and asked his daughter in surprise: "So urgent? Why don't you wait a little longer?"
"What are you waiting for? I finally bought the medicine, I can't wait."
Du Wanwan rolled up Du Jiang's trouser legs and carefully felt the bones of his lame leg to know where it was crooked. This way she could move more accurately and not make the wrong move.
In her previous life, she had set bones for many of her comrades, and performed such operations many times. There was an operating table in the space, but the bones in Du Jiang's legs were not broken, so no surgery was required.
Break it and reconnect it, then secure it with a splint.
Du Jiang drank the water and put the bowl down. When he turned around, he saw his daughter taking a stick and hitting his lame leg hard.
“Crack!”
The sound of broken bones was heard, a piercing pain spread throughout the body, and beads of sweat instantly seeped out of the forehead.
"Dad! Scream out if it hurts. My leg bone is crooked and needs to be broken and then reconnected."
After hearing what his daughter said, Du Jiang wanted to cry: "Wanwan! Can you notify Dad before you do anything?"
"No." Du Wanwan began to feel around Du Jiang's leg, trying to find the best place to fix the bone. "If I tell you, you'll have some psychological resistance. The best solution is to interrupt you when you're not prepared."
Du Wanwan broke Du Jiang's leg. This scene happened to be seen by Huo Qingxiang, who was so frightened that her soul left her body and her face turned pale.
That woman is so cruel. She even attacked her own father. She is such a piece of shit.
When she got home and told her parents and grandfather about it, Huo Sien didn't take it seriously. He glanced at his ignorant granddaughter and scolded her, "Don't talk nonsense. Du Dalang is a doctor. He broke her father's leg to help him recover from his leg disease. He's not as crazy as you say."
Huo Qingxiang didn't say anything, but she didn't believe it in her heart. Even if she wanted to treat his leg, she couldn't do it herself! Can't she let someone else do it? It was obviously her who was crazy.
As a son or daughter, if you break your father's legs, are you still a human being?
Who would dare to want such a woman? Would the Prince of Pingyang dare to want her? Definitely not.
How could the prince, who is so precious, want a rude and violent woman?
Du Wanwan: “…” You know nothing. If I don’t do it myself, should I hire someone to do it? Even if I hire someone, what if the position of the break is not right?
A woman who knows nothing likes to be pretentious for no reason.
Although Du Jiang's legs hurt, it was within the tolerable range. For some reason, since fleeing the famine, his health has been better than before at home.
I can eat better and sleep better, and all my back pains are gone.
Even the pain from the broken leg today felt much less than that year. I remember that year when he broke his leg, he fainted several times from the pain.
The clothes on my body were soaked by sweat again and again, and I didn't recover for several days. My parents were very worried, and my wife was also worried all day long, and I don't know how many times she cried secretly.
The daughter's hands were very skillful. After just a few pinches, she reconnected his leg bones, found two boards to clamp them, and wrapped them tightly with strips of cloth.
He gave him a big meat bun and told him: "Eat it, I will give you some painkillers later, and have a good sleep at night. If it really hurts, just bear with it. In about ten days, your leg will be healed."
Du Jiang wiped the sweat off his head and handed the meat bun to Du Wanwan: "Dad won't eat it, you eat it. You must be exhausted after working so hard for so long!"
Du Wanwan's face darkened: "Dad! If I tell you to eat, you should eat it. If you don't eat it, how can I give you the painkiller? Hurry up and eat it."
Yao Meixian, who was cooking over there, also noticed that her daughter had just broken the man's leg, but she didn't dare to come over for fear of feeling sad when she saw it.
Knowing that her daughter was doing this for her father's good, Yao Meixian's heart tightened when she saw her daughter pick up the stick and hit the man's leg without hesitation.
Du Wenjun, who was packing ducks, also saw it and wanted to come over to help, but Yao Meixian stopped him: "Don't go, your eldest brother didn't call us. If we go, I'm afraid she will feel burdened."
Du Wenjun did not go over, but went to the side to pick up firewood. While picking up firewood, he looked back, fearing that he had not heard his elder brother calling him and had missed something.
Du Wenguan and Du Wenhuo ran back after eating the buns, each holding a handful of firewood in their arms. They were surprised to see their father sitting in the car eating buns with his injured leg tied up.
Du Wanwan glanced at them and explained, "I broke Dad's leg and reconnected it. Dad can't move during this period and has to stay in the car."
"What?" Du Wenhuo was amazed. "Brother! I was out for just a short while, and you broke and reattached Dad's leg? So quickly?"
Du Wenguan also felt incredible and asked Du Jiang: "Dad! Does it hurt?"
