Chapter 42 Zheng Jie wakes up and refuses unreasonable demands



The next day, at dawn, a shocking cry of terror woke up everyone who was sleeping.

"Ah... what the hell, go away, go away, don't eat me, my meat is not tasty, go eat someone else."

No one could sit still any longer, so they grabbed their weapons and went to provide support.

The man's clothes were stained with blood, his nose and face were swollen, his head was swollen like a pig, his facial features were not very clear, he was holding a young man's legs and lying on the ground, it seemed that he had stopped breathing.

But the rise and fall of his chest proved that he was still alive.

Su Sijin knew it was Lu Xiao at a glance, but... she and Shen Tingyun clearly avoided the head and face!

Then what about his disfigured injuries?

Could it be that after they left, someone else abused Lu Xiao?

Did anyone see the whole process of them committing violence?

Su Sijin looked carefully in the crowd and found that many people seemed suspicious.

Qin Qing, who was watching the excitement in the crowd, felt that the pig-headed man looked more and more familiar, especially his clothes. Why did he look so much like Lu Xiao?

Qin Qing looked around but didn't see Lu Xiao, which made her even more certain that the pig-headed man was Lu Xiao.

Qin Qing looked at Chen Chunhua, who was covering her nose with disgust, and laughed with glee, letting out an exaggerated "ouch".

"Oh! Fourth sister-in-law, don't you think he looks familiar? Why does he look like my brother-in-law to me?"

As soon as Qin Qing finished speaking, she drew everyone's attention to Chen Chunhua.

Chen Chunhua angrily glared at Qin Qing, who was eager to stir up trouble, and then covered her face with a handkerchief in shame, denying it, "Third sister-in-law, stop talking nonsense, my husband is fine."

Qin Qing happened to see Mrs. Lu coming over, so she excitedly took the old woman's arm and said exaggeratedly,

"Mother, that man is my fourth brother. He's seriously injured and may not survive."

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Lu lost control and threw away his crutch. If Qin Qing had not been big enough and strong enough, the old lady would have fallen to the ground.

"Xiao'er, my son, my sweetheart, please don't scare me!" The old lady pinched Qin Qing's arm hard and said through gritted teeth, "Help me go over and take a look."

Qin Qing pouted. She was already in her forties, but she was still so sweet. She really loved him so much.

Qin Qing reluctantly helped the old lady to Lu Xiao's side. The old lady knelt beside Lu Xiao and stroked Lu Xiao's face with her trembling hands.

Her lips trembled, tears streaming down her face. "Xiao'er, my son, what happened to you? Who beat you like this?"

"Doctor, please take a look at my son." Old Madam Lu grabbed a man and pushed him towards Lu Xiao, forcing the doctor to see the patient.

The doctor glared at her angrily, but seeing how sad she looked, he endured it.

After examining Lu Xiao, he said, "He's fine. He has no internal injuries, only external ones. He just needs disinfection and recuperation for a while."

The old lady disagreed with the doctor's words and scolded him without hesitation, "Quack, my daughter is so seriously injured and her breathing is so weak. Anyone who is not blind can see that my daughter is seriously injured. It feels like she will die at any moment."

"You actually said so casually that my son is fine? He just needs to rest. Let me tell you, if anything happens to my son, you will be the one to blame."

Madam Lu's harsh words shocked the doctor, but he no longer tolerated the old lady's unreasonable demands. "Are you asking for me? Do you still think you are the high and mighty grandmother of the prince?"

"You still think you're the majestic, feared old prince of the palace? What's the difference between you and me now? How are you any more noble than us?"

Langzhong was Jiang Guan's attendant physician, and he was very dissatisfied with Madam Lu's behavior. If it weren't for the fact that Su Sijin helped his benefactor, he really didn't intend to get involved in matters other than the Lu family's eldest house.

Even though Mrs. Lu was humiliated by the doctor, she didn't care. She noticed Su Sijin with her sharp eyes, pulled her over, and asked her to treat Lu Xiao.

"Su, please take a look. I don't trust that quack doctor."

I'm afraid you don't trust anyone except yourself! Su Sijin complained secretly.

Su Sijin found that Lu Xiao had many terrible external injuries on his body. She knew Shen Tingyun's strength. The wooden stick hit him, at most, and he would be bruised and bleed a little.

However, Lu Xiao's injuries were obviously not caused by a delicate woman.

Su Sijin collected her thoughts and glanced at Lu Xiao, confirming that he had no internal injuries or broken bones. It seemed that he had no intention of taking his life. Like her, it might be a warning and revenge.

"This doctor's diagnosis is correct. Fourth Uncle's injuries are all external. They look terrible, but there's nothing wrong with him internally. He'll be fully recovered after a few days of rest."

“You don’t even need to take medicine.”

The reason why medication is not recommended is to make Lu Xiao suffer pain for a longer period of time. Only by remembering the pain, he might restrain himself and not dare to do it again.

But it was obvious that the old lady did not agree with Su Sijin's words. She insisted that Su Sijin was taking revenge.

So, he refuted with a fierce tone, "Nonsense, don't you see your fourth uncle lying here dying?"

"Su, you colluded with others to deceive your own family, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

Su Sijin also loudly refuted, "Grandma, I understand that you love your son deeply, but you can't be blinded by one thing and throw dirty water on me and the doctor at will."

"Even if you invite ten or a hundred doctors to examine us, they'll all say the same thing. Fourth Uncle's condition looks serious, but it's really just a minor injury."

"That's all I have to say. Grandma doesn't believe the doctor and me, and there's nothing we can do."

After Su Sijin finished speaking, she looked at the old lady helplessly, then shook her head and left disappointed.

Just at this moment, the voice of Tang Peng gathering the troops came.

Seeing the people surrounding Lu Xiao scatter in a hurry, the old lady, who was still breathing, was disheveled in the wind.
