Chapter 897: Cao Yongan, Lord Cao, is he your father-in-law?
Even though Wang's sister-in-law didn't understand, Wang Youde looked at her eyes rolling around and knew exactly what she was thinking.
He was about to speak with a gloomy face when he heard the second uncle say, "Hurry up and get them mother and child out. Don't delay Doctor Xi from treating Youren."
Wang's sister-in-law was immediately displeased and glared angrily, "I'm here, I don't know who dares to touch my man!"
The villagers who rushed in didn't care about that. They dragged her out without saying a word. Those who had private grudges against her even took the opportunity to pinch her a few times.
A familiar villager advised: "His sister-in-law, please stop talking! If you make the doctor angry, we will all die."
Who wouldn’t be afraid when the word death is mentioned?
Wang's sister-in-law gritted her teeth, turned around and glared at Wang Youde, saying, "It was your daughter who picked up the person, and it was your family who caused the trouble. If anyone is to die, it's your whole family who will die!"
Not only her, but the villagers outside also thought so.
Why should everyone be implicated in the matter caused by their family?
But even though they thought about it, they didn't dare to actually say such offensive words openly.
If this family of three really met with misfortune and all of them died, it would be fine. But if they managed to survive, how embarrassing would it be to see each other again in the future?
Besides, Wang Youde is the village head. If this really happens, he will make things difficult for them every day.
Uncle Wang's face turned grim when he heard this. He shouted coldly, "Cover her mouth and stop her from yelling nonsense."
If he continued to say this, not only would Youde and his wife be pissed off, he would almost die.
No wonder the older generation often says to marry a virtuous wife. These two brothers are different. The wives they married are each more shrewish than the other. They can't even tell the priorities.
If you send these three people away, how many things in your own family will you not be able to sort out?
If you make people angry and don't give them the antidote, won't we all die together?
Although he is old, he hasn't lived enough and wants to enjoy the blessings of his children and grandchildren for two more years.
As soon as she finished speaking, someone stuffed something into Wang's sister-in-law's mouth and cursed, "Your mouth stinks all day long. Sooner or later, you'll die from this mouth."
Someone glanced at the crying Wang Yaozu and said awkwardly, "He was such a good kid, but now he has two broken front teeth. How is he going to find a wife in the future?"
"Maybe his mother's mouth was too foul, and God couldn't stand it, so the retribution came to the child."
"It's true. His family's Guangwei Guangzong is about to get married, but when other families hear about his mother's character, they simply don't agree to let their daughters go out to meet a wife."
"They're not a bad family, but she's the one with the bad mouth!"
The second uncle said with a dark face: "If you want to gossip, then get out of here and don't delay Doctor Xi's work."
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Youren who was lying unconscious on the ground, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Knowing what he was worried about, Xi Lin walked forward, felt Wang Youren's pulse and said, "It's just a little bleeding, nothing serious, just pull out the broken porcelain pieces in the wound.
But if he continues to be so lazy and gluttonous, and continues to eat and drink lavishly every day, he will definitely get a serious illness within ten years, and even a god cannot cure it."
The second uncle nodded and said quickly, "Don't worry, Doctor Xi, I will definitely take good care of him from now on."
Xi Lin handed him a porcelain bottle and said, "Have someone carry him out first. Find someone skilled enough to remove the broken porcelain pieces from his back and sprinkle some medicine powder on him to stop the bleeding."
Second Master: "Doctor Xi, why don't you go over and take a look?"
Xi Lin grinned and asked instead of answering, "Are you really confident in letting me take action?"
The second uncle's eyelids twitched and he stopped talking immediately.
He was relieved at first, but now...
Forget it, let him figure it out himself.
Knowing that they had something to ask Wang Youde, the second uncle quickly called for people to come and carry Wang Youren, Wang Mao and others out, and he himself followed slowly with a cane.
Looking at the old man's back, Xi Lin reminded him quietly, "Old man, we have no intention of making things difficult for you. As long as you wait outside obediently, the antidote will be provided.
But if someone is dishonest, I can’t say for sure if there’s enough antidote for everyone to share.”
The second uncle's hand holding the cane trembled, and he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Doctor Xi, I will definitely not make things difficult for you."

"Who are you?" After staring at the bloodstain on the ground for a while, Wang Youde suddenly asked.
Xi Lin raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "You don't even know who he is, yet you dare let your daughter marry him?"
This cannot be said to be courageous, it can only be said to be stupid.
Wang Youde choked and said with a grim expression, "He didn't say anything when he woke up. I asked him his name or where he lived, but he didn't say a word. I thought he was mute."
"Just because I'm dumb, can you force me to be your son-in-law?"
Seeing that he was still trying to be stubborn, Xi Lin changed the subject, "Don't say that his legs are on his body, seal the windows and lock the door tightly.
Don't tell me this is a tradition of your Wang family."
Wang Youde wanted to say it, but did he dare?
Seeing Xi Lin's aggressive look, he looked at Mo Jinchuan and said with a wry smile: "Sir, no, warrior, no matter what, my Xian'er saved your life.
Even if you despise her, you shouldn't repay her with hatred and turn our good family into this mess."
Mo Jinchuan raised his eyelids and looked at him, his voice cold as he said, "I climbed up from the riverbank by myself."
To be precise, Wang Xian'er did not pick him up, but tied him back while he was weak.
To prevent him from struggling, she knocked him unconscious with a stick. When he opened his eyes, it was already this morning.
Wang Youde said with an ugly face: "Xian'er didn't tell me that."
"It's not important." Xi Lin didn't bother to listen to his explanation and asked in a cold voice, "Lord Cao, the Minister of Works in the capital, Cao Yongan, is your father-in-law?"
Wang Youde blurted out: "No!"
Just two simple words, but he broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
He raised his arm and wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve, then said dryly, "How can such a high-ranking official have anything to do with ordinary people like us, let alone marrying his daughter to us? Don't even think about it.
This kind of thing probably only happens on the stage."
Xi Lin leaned back in his chair, supporting his chin with one hand. "You are quite perceptive and good at talking. No wonder that old man surnamed Cao tolerates you."
As soon as the words fell, a figure rushed out from the inner room and shouted angrily: "I will tear your mouth apart!"
Wang Youde quickly hugged Cao Xianglan and whispered in her ear, "These people should be from Beijing. They have important backgrounds. We can't afford to offend them."
"I don't care where he comes from!" Cao Xianglan pointed at Xi Lin and cursed, "You short-lived pretty boy, a fool who hasn't even grown all his hair yet.
Who is Lord Cao? Is he worthy of mentioning someone like you?"
She became angrier and angrier as she spoke, her eyes turning bloodshot. "Wang, get out of here right now and let me teach this uneducated kid a lesson..."
"Pa!" Seeing that he couldn't stop her, Wang Youde hardened his heart and raised his hand to slap Cao Xianglan again.
He cursed in a low voice, "You're crazy! Divine Doctor Xi's father is the head of the Xi family. If we offend him, our family will have no good days in the future."
