After Aunt Xiao and the other person left.
Patriarch Xiao looked at Xiao's mother with a look of disappointment.
"Since Han Zheng is not awake, can't you be more powerful?"
"We have separated and severed our relationship, so we still need to be tough."
Mother Xiao nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yes!"
She resisted, but was no match for him.
It was just because she was too weak that she almost couldn’t protect her daughter.
Seeing her weak and crying appearance, Chief Xiao sighed, "I just hope Han Zheng can wake up soon."
Otherwise, I really don’t know whether these three women can survive.
Xiao Hanzheng was the youngest member of the clan that he had the highest hopes for, and he was the one he trained personally. It would be a shame if he couldn't wake up.
He will also be very sad.
Mother Xiao cried and said, "Yes, it would be great if Zheng'er could wake up soon."
Shi Qingluo did not quite agree with this statement. She always believed that it was better to rely on oneself than on others.
But with Xiao's mother's temper, it's no use talking to her.
And judging from what happened just now, Xiao's mother is also trying hard to protect her daughter.
It’s a pity that the difference in physical strength and ferocity between the two sides was too great, and Xiao’s mother was powerless.
Chief Xiao took out a purse from his bosom and said, "Here are a few taels of silver that I and several elders have collected. Take it and go and treat Han Zheng as soon as possible."
Xiao's mother was touched. She had already borrowed six taels of silver from the Xiao clan leader's family to pay for her son's medical treatment.
Not only did the clan leader not urge them to pay back the money, he also pooled money together with several clan elders. In fact, their families were not very wealthy.
Although he believed that the medicine Shi Qingluo had taken out was effective, if his son's fever had not subsided and he had not woken up, or if he was weak after waking up, he would have to continue getting medicine and replenishing his body.
So even though the silver was hot, Xiao's mother had no choice but to take it.
She walked to the tribe leader, knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you for your kindness, tribe leader and other elders. When Zheng'er wakes up, we will collect the money and pay you back."
If it weren't for the help from the clan leader and others during this period, she wouldn't know how she would have survived with her child.
In the past, the clan leader and others also helped her son a lot, and she has always remembered this great kindness in her heart.
She took another deep breath and said, "If Zheng'er doesn't wake up, I will return the money."
From this point of view, even though Xiao's mother is weak in character, she is responsible.
Chief Xiao waved his hand, "We are not in a hurry. The most important thing now is to save Han Zheng."
Then his eyes fell on Shi Qingluo, "Miss Shi, thank you for protecting the Xiao family mother and daughter just now."
When they arrived just now, they happened to see Shi Qingluo driving away the Wu family's people.
Otherwise, they would have some trouble if they wanted to drive the Wu family away.
Shi Qingluo smiled nonchalantly, "You're welcome. I just help those who are in trouble."
Patriarch Xiao thought for a moment and reminded, "The Wu family is not only a wealthy family in the county, but Mrs. Wu's sister also married the prefect as a concubine. Even the prefect would be courteous to them."
"Miss Shi, please be careful next time."
No matter what, this Miss Shi also helped the Xiao family, and he didn't want her to be retaliated by the Wu family.
Shi Qingluo discovered that the clan leader and elders of Xiaxi Village were much more humane than those of Shangxi Village.
She also accepted the other party's reminder, "Okay, I will pay attention."
Patriarch Xiao also instructed Xiao's mother that if the Xiao family still wanted to sell Xiao Xiaomei, she should let Erlang find them.
After saying this, he took the village chief and several other people away.
Xiao Xiaomei immediately walked over and helped Xiao's mother up.
Both of them looked at Shi Qingluo with gratitude, "Miss Shi/Sister Shi, thank you so much today!"
Mother Xiao sincerely said: "We will definitely find a chance to repay your kindness in the future."
She thought for a moment and asked, "I think the two shrews from the Xiao family won't let you go. Have you figured out how to deal with them?"
This made Xiao's mother and Xiao Xiaomei change their expressions successfully, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
What should they do if they can’t win by fighting or scolding? “We don’t know either.” Xiao’s mother replied sadly and frustratedly.
Xiao's mother is weak in character, but not stupid.
She looked at Shi Qingluo, "Miss Shi, do you have any ideas?"
Otherwise I wouldn't ask this.
Shi Qingluo asked back: "What do you think of me?"
Mother Xiao did not hesitate, "Miss Shi is very good."
But what does this have to do with dealing with those two shrews?
They can't ask Miss Shi for help every time.
Shi Qingluo didn't beat around the bush and said bluntly: "How about I marry into your family and be your daughter-in-law and sister-in-law to Xiao Xiaomei and Erlang?"
"This way, if those bitches dare to bully you again, I will be able to punish them with justification."
Xiao's mother and the other two all showed the same look of shock.
It took Xiao's mother a while to come back to her senses. "You mean, you want to marry into our family?"
Although many girls in the village wanted to marry Zheng'er before, none of them had ever been so straightforward.
Moreover, after Zheng'er fell into a coma, she heard many people rejoicing behind her back, saying that it was a good thing that Zheng'er didn't want to get married so early, otherwise she would have been unlucky or become a widow if she had married.
If Qingluo had said in the past that she wanted to marry Zheng'er, she would not have been surprised.
But the current situation in their family is not only self-destructive, but can be said to be a fire pit. Why would Shi Qingluo jump into it?
Although he felt that Shi Qingluo was someone he could rely on, if she really married him, she would be able to deal with those two shrews.
But she can't cheat others like this.
So she sighed and said, "Miss Shi, it's not that I don't want to, but you have seen the situation of my family. If you marry into my family, your life will not be easy."
"Zheng'er hasn't woken up yet, and the family still owes more than a dozen taels of silver in foreign debt. We're almost out of food."
"Although we have separated from the Xiao family, as long as Zheng'er doesn't wake up, those people will come to make trouble without any bottom line."
With tears in her eyes, she gritted her teeth and said, "And if Zheng'er doesn't wake up, you will be a widow if you marry her. We can't treat our benefactor like this."
Although Xiao Xiaomei and Erlang were grateful to and liked Shi Qingluo because of what happened before, they really couldn't say against their conscience that it was good for her to marry them.
If their brother were still awake, they would be willing to have a sister-in-law like this and would not feel guilty about it.
But his brother is in a coma and they don’t know whether he will wake up or not, so they can’t let him down.
After hearing what Xiao's mother said and seeing the expressions of Xiao Xiaomei and the others, Shi Qingluo felt even more that his choice was right.
Shi Qingluo expressed his thoughts very frankly.
"You all know that the Shi family wants to marry me to Master Wu to be buried with him. If I don't marry myself, my parents' home will be a big hell."
"I have a strong personality, so I am not suitable to marry into a family with a large family, complicated relationships, and strong in-laws."
"Your family is perfect for me."
"I don't mind your family's current poverty and troubles, but I have one request. If I marry you, you must not interfere with anything I do in the future. It would be best if I were the head of the family."
"In exchange, I will protect you and lead you to live a prosperous life."
She added: "I think Xiao Hanzheng will get better after taking the medicine I gave him."
"If he really can't wake up, I don't mind being a widow. As long as I can live comfortably, that's fine."
It is better to make these things clear in advance.
She is just that kind of person. She married with this purpose in mind. It all depends on what Xiao's mother and the other two choose.
