The woman was surprised: "Really?"

"Yeah, it really doesn't hurt anymore!" Goudan even moved his arm back and forth deliberately. His arm felt smooth and comfortable. He seemed to have found something interesting. He pinched it, and except for a little swelling and pain where the blood came out, the previous feeling of being unable to move his arm was gone!

Woman: “…”

Seeing is believing, she could no longer say it was a broken bone.

Whose fracture can be healed so easily?

However... the woman asked with an unnatural look on her face: "Can you also treat dislocations?"

Jiang Xi nodded and said naturally, "I learned it from books when I was in school. An old doctor saw that I was eager to learn and taught me a little."

The woman's attitude suddenly improved: "So that's how it is, I——"

People who know a little bit about medicine cannot be offended, as they may be able to help you someday. She looked at her son jumping around, and then at the two little girls who were still hiding behind Jiang Xi in a pitiful manner. She felt even more guilty and wanted to apologize.

But before he could say more, Pei's mother's voice rang out: "Tieniu's family? Why are you here?"

When Pei's parents came back from work and saw the scene in the yard, they were shocked. Pei's mother rushed forward and saw that the second and third sisters were not injured. She smiled apologetically and said, "Did the children have a fight? I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Tieniu's wife laughed, "Auntie, it's not what you think. Hey, the fight between the two kids is not a big deal. Tiedan broke his arm by himself. You, my little daughter-in-law, cured him. He's fine now."

"What? Cured?" Pei's mother was puzzled.

Tie Niu's wife laughed dryly and said, "Yeah! Don't you know? Your little daughter-in-law is amazing. In just a moment, I didn't even see how it happened, but my son's arm healed and it didn't hurt anymore. He cried so hard before, I thought it was a fracture, but it turned out to be a dislocation!"

Mother Pei looked at Jiang Xi: "Really?"

Jiang Xi repeated what he had just said to Pei's mother and said with a smile, "He only knows a little bit, and he has never treated anyone seriously."

Mother Pei was overjoyed and wanted to praise Jiang Xi again, but since there were outsiders around, she suppressed her excitement: "It's good at all, it's a good thing!"

These days, if you have a headache or a fever, you have to bear it yourself. Besides spending money, you often have to go to the clinic in town, which costs money!

In the first few years, there was a barefoot doctor in the brigade, but he offended someone and was reported. He ran away overnight, making it difficult for everyone to see a doctor. The person who reported him was abandoned by the brigade and had to live in fear, but he couldn't get a doctor back.

Now that Jiang Xi knows a little, Pei's mother is very happy.

She had no doubts. There were not many educated people in the surrounding villages. It was definitely amazing that Jiang Xi could go to high school!

Tieniu's wife thought the same, so she felt guilty that her husband had come to make trouble even though she had ignored him. She didn't dare to stay any longer and said hurriedly, "Uncle, aunt, I'll go back now. I still have to cook."

After she finished speaking, she took her son and left.

After everyone left, Jiang Xi also wanted to go cook, but Pei's mother stopped her and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Jiang Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and held her back with his hand: "Auntie, you can be busy tomorrow, and rest today."

Mother Pei failed to snatch Jiang Xi this time, so she could only sit in the main hall to rest. She watched the three Jiang sisters busy in the kitchen, and winked at the old man with a smile: "Don't you think I made the right choice of daughter-in-law? Xiaoxi is really amazing. She was able to cure the dislocation in such a short time. Even the old doctor couldn't do it before!"

That refers to the barefoot doctor in the village.

Father Pei was also very happy. He drank the boiled water and tasted like tea. He said with a click of the tongue: "She is quite capable. This girl usually looks quiet, but she is actually very smart!"

This can be seen just from his attitude towards Jiang's mother Zhang Xiuyun.

Women like Zhang Xiuyun are not particularly rare in this era, but no one can hold the betrothal gift in her own hands like Jiang Xi does.

Pei's parents were sighing in the main room.

In his heart, he looked up to his daughter-in-law even more highly. A person with such skills would never starve to death, not to mention that she also knew medical skills.

In the kitchen, the two Jiang sisters were also surprised.

"Sister, you are so awesome! I didn't even notice that the tough arm was healed!" Jiang Sanmei now admires her sister to death.

Just now, Tiedan Niang came over to ask for compensation, and she and her second sister were scared to death!

They lived and ate at the Pei family. If they had to pay more money, their uncle and aunt would definitely be angry, and their mother would also be angry. But who knew that the eldest sister was so amazing and cured the disease directly, so that they dared not say anything.

Jiang Ermei was not good at talking, but she nodded desperately. The fire from the stove was reflected on her face, which was red and her eyes were bright.

Jiang Xi handed the dishes to Sanmei to wash, and said with a smile: "So if others bully you in the future, don't be afraid. Of course, if you can avoid fighting, you should. If your clothes are torn, it's not easy to wash them. You can come back and tell me, and I will take you to find them, understand?"

The two sisters nodded vigorously and said crisply, "I know!"

Jiang Xi looked at them with a smile, then clumsily cooked the dish according to the steps in the original owner's memory. She managed to cook it, but the carrots were a little mushy, but fortunately no one complained and they all finished it.

After dinner, Pei's mother took the various wedding supplies she had bought and said excitedly, "Old man, come here and put up this happy character."

"Let me do it." Jiang Xi saw that there were a lot of things to post, so he offered to help.

Mother Pei refused: "The bride should have a good rest, you will be tired tomorrow."

Jiang Xi had no choice but to go back to sleep, but his two younger sisters were asked to help.

Although it is not a big event, everything that is necessary is still there.

The room was covered with happy characters. Last night, the two elders cleaned Pei Hejun's room and pasted happy characters all over it today. Two red kettles and a red bowl were placed on the desk in the room.

Plus a new quilt.

Pei's mother prepared this for her son a long time ago, and only sent it out now.

For this reason, she asked Pei's father to move his son to her room, as a vegetative patient would suffer from incontinence, and she was afraid that the new bed would be dirty.

After doing all this, the darkness came completely.

The candlelight illuminated the room. Mother Pei looked at the new house and sighed with tears in her eyes, "I never thought... that the third brother's marriage would be like this."

Who could have thought of that.

Such a good son suddenly became a vegetable, which was actually no different from being dead. If the parents were more cruel, they might have just let their son die, but they couldn't bear to do that.

Father Pei's throat tightened, he had a craving for cigarette, but it was not appropriate to smoke in his son's new house, so he endured it and did not move. His heart felt like it was being crawled by ants, as if it was itchy, but in fact it was sour and painful.

Only after the excitement had passed did he pat his wife's hand and say, "Let's go to bed. The third child is still there."

"Yeah." Mother Pei nodded and tears started to flow.

How wonderful! The daughter-in-law is beautiful, smart and capable. If the son is well behaved, even though he is a taciturn person, he will definitely live a prosperous life in the future with his daughter-in-law watching over him.

But she couldn't believe that her son could wake up.

There has been no movement these days.

The next day.

Jiang Xi got up early.

Although the groom was lying down and unable to move, he still had to go through the necessary rituals, otherwise it would be unlucky. No matter how hard they fought against the Four Olds, some things engraved in people's hearts could not be erased.

For this reason, Pei's parents invited an unmarried cousin to come and help his brother to get married.

Jiang Xi was also forced to put on makeup. She tried her best to stop herself and finally managed not to blush like a pig. Then she changed into the white shirt and pink skirt carefully selected by Pei's mother. Amid the commotion, she sat in the back seat of the car and was ridden around the village by Pei Hejun's cousin.

A group of children followed behind her happily. Jiang Xi sprinkled some candies from time to time. The children fell to the ground to pick them up and followed closely: "The bride sprinkles candies! Sprinkle more!"

When the car stopped in the yard, Jiang Xi got out and scattered all the remaining candy in the bag.

The crowd gathered around immediately, and the children were very excited: "Wow! So many candies!"

"I grabbed ten!"

"I have a bag, look..."

Jiang Xi smiled. His cousin, who had just parked his car nearby, came over and asked, "Cousin, can you lend me your car for a day?"

Jiang Xi smiled and nodded: "Okay, just be careful."

"Of course, of course!" The cousin nodded obediently and ran away with a jump.

The next step was to prepare for the wedding in the bridal chamber, but because the groom was lying down, this step was skipped. The elders in the village came over to help keep the account of the accompanying gifts. Jiang Xi followed Pei's parents to entertain the guests and get to know their relatives.

There were quite a few guests, some from the Pei family and some from the Jiang family, who came to have the banquet during the lunch break.

At least for the sake of appearance, everyone congratulated her on her marriage with a smile.

Although the people in the Jiang family did not approve of Jiang Xi marrying in, Jiang Xi's grandparents died early, Jiang's father was also gone, and Jiang's mother was even more unreliable. As uncles and aunts, who were only one or two levels away from each other, it was not easy to say much.

The only strange thing is that Zhang Xiuyun and the Zhang family haven’t arrived yet?

It was not until noon that the aunt who came to help served the dishes, Pei Hejun's cousin and others went to entertain the guests, and Pei Deming and his brother came with their whole family to eat, but no one was seen.

Jiang Xi felt something was strange until the banquet was about to start, when he finally heard a voice: "The bride's mother is here!"

"Why did you come just now?"

"I'm afraid you won't be happy about this marriage."

"Who can be happy with a son-in-law like this?"

Someone was muttering in a low voice. Jiang Xi came out to take a look and saw Zhang Xiuyun with red eyes coming with a group of people. The one closest to her was the original owner's uncle. In this difficult time, Zhang Hu still had some fat in his belly.

However, several of them looked unhappy, and it looked like they were not here for a banquet, but rather to cause trouble.

Seeing people, Jiang Xi felt relieved. He stood at the end and waited patiently for the group to come over.

The originally lively atmosphere unconsciously became quiet. Everyone looked at Jiang Xi, then at the people Zhang Xiuyun brought with strange expressions.

When they got closer, Zhang Hu looked at Jiang Xi distressedly and said angrily: "Everyone come and take a look, you see how dishonest the Pei family is? My eldest sister is simple, but the third child of his family is like this, and they still coaxed my eldest sister to marry him, without even giving her a betrothal gift, and directly took her away, and she didn't even marry from her parents' home!"

Everyone was shocked: "You didn't even give a betrothal gift?"

Pei's mother had heard the noise and came over. After listening to Zhang Hu's question, she was so angry that she wanted to curse.

Jiang Xi stopped Pei's mother and said generously: "Mom, uncle, the betrothal gift is in my own hands. I'm not being deceived. It's because I can study all these years thanks to the Pei family. Of course I can't be ungrateful now. If I hadn't wanted to study, I would have had to marry him when the Pei family hired me three years ago. I wouldn't have anything to do today, don't you think?"

Mother Pei's complexion improved, she glanced at her daughter-in-law, and said nothing.

Forget it. After all, it’s my daughter-in-law’s family. I can’t scold them too harshly.

Zhang Hu didn't expect Jiang Xi to be so disrespectful to him. His face immediately turned dark and he pulled the dumb Zhang Xiuyun.

Zhang Xiuyun immediately blushed and cried, "Big sister, don't talk nonsense! If the Pei family really valued you, they wouldn't have let you live here so soon. Come back with me and I'll find you a good family, okay?"

"I'm not going back." Jiang Xi shook his head and said frankly, "Mom, since you're here, just have the banquet before you leave."

"Big sister!" Zhang Xiuyun was anxious. She really couldn't bear to let her daughter marry such a man. She would not be able to have children in the future and would be alone all her life. What was the point of living?

Zhang Hu sighed as if he really felt sorry for his niece: "Big sister, since you insist on marrying here, let's not talk about anything else. The Pei family should at least give the betrothal gift to your mother, right? Your mother raised you, it's impossible for her to get nothing in the end, right? Besides, you even brought your second and third sisters here, won't this make your mother lonely in the future? The two children should stay with your mother better. If they are with you, people will gossip about them."

Zhang Xiuyun didn't expect her brother to compromise so quickly. She said reluctantly, "Brother, why did you agree?"

Zhang Hu said helplessly: "My eldest sister has been coaxed into this state, what can I do? I just hope the remaining two girls won't be so silly."

The two of them sang the same tune, and the people around them became more and more surprised. In the end, all the eyes that fell on the Jiang family were strange. Not only did they not give the betrothal gift, but they also took away the remaining two daughters of Zhang Xiuyun. What was they doing? !

Mother Pei's face flushed with anger, but what they said made sense, and she was afraid that they would continue to make trouble, so she whispered, "Xiaoxi, how about giving them some money and sending them off?"

Jiang Xi shook her head to signal her not to worry about it, and raised her head to Zhang Hu with a bitter smile: "Uncle, I kept this betrothal gift because I wanted to raise my two sisters. My father is gone, and my two sisters can only rely on me."

Zhang Hu's eyes shone: "Your sister is raised by your mother!" He waved his hand, and the people behind him came forward aggressively: "If you don't give the betrothal gift today, forget about getting married! My sister wants the betrothal gift from my elder sister, that's only natural! Folks, don't you agree?! Whose daughter doesn't give the betrothal gift to her own mother when she gets married?"

This is true. Even if the people around think that the Zhang family is too powerful, no one dares to refute it: "That's right, Third Wife, how about giving this betrothal gift to your mother?"

Pei Deming watched his mother being threatened and hesitated whether to go over. His younger brother held him down, so he thought about it and did not move.

It would be good if this wedding banquet could be ruined. Without Jiang Xi, the two old fools would honestly hand over the third son's pension, right?

Fortunately, the male relatives of the Pei family and Pei Hejun's friends also quickly stood behind Jiang Xi and Pei's mother, looking at them vigilantly: "If you have anything to say, please talk it over. Don't mess around on such a happy day!"

Zhang Hu was now feeling very proud because he had someone to support him: "It all depends on whether my niece is filial or not."

Everyone's eyes naturally fell on Jiang Xi, waiting to see her answer.

Things came to this point. Jiang Xi smiled bitterly and seemed to have compromised: "Okay, I will give all the 200 yuan of betrothal gifts from the Pei family to my mother, and my second and third sister's mothers can also take them back."

Two hundred!

A hundred yuan for a betrothal gift is considered a lot these days, and two hundred yuan is really a lot.

Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Zhang Hu was excited. He was even happier that the two girls could come back. He couldn't wait to reach out: "Give it to me!"

Jiang Xi smiled and raised her voice, saying, "I can give you the betrothal gift, but I have a condition! I originally wanted to keep the two hundred yuan and use it to support my two younger sisters to go to school and then get married. Since mother insists on taking the betrothal gift back, you must support my younger sisters well, feed them meat once a week, send them to school, make two new clothes for them every season, and don't let them get married before they are 18 years old!"

She took out a pen and paper and put them aside: "I have written the terms in advance. The captain of the Sixth Brigade is here. Please help me as a witness. If you don't do it, you must return the two hundred yuan in full. I will support the two sisters!"

Zhang Hu, who only wanted to get the money, was dumbfounded: "Are you crazy? I still want to support those two money-losing guys?! Impossible!"

Jiang Xi laughed out loud and said sarcastically, "Uncle, I didn't ask you to raise me. I told my mother that. Do you think the betrothal gift is for you?"
