Lijiazhuang is not far from Hutouya Village. Han Luoxue did not take a carriage and strolled along the way. When the group arrived at Lijiazhuang, someone went to inform the village head.
A large crowd of villagers had gathered outside Old Lady Li's house. Han Luoxue and her group entered the courtyard, and Old Lady Li opened her door. A strong stench wafted out, and everyone stopped at the doorway.
"What's that smell? Old Mrs. Li, do you pee in your house?"
Grandma Han frowned in displeasure; the smell was just too awful.
The crowd outside the courtyard gate also looked over suspiciously. Faced with their questioning gazes, Old Lady Li's expression was extremely unnatural.
"They have difficulty walking, what can an old woman like me do?"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions became even more suspicious: "Where is your daughter-in-law?"
If your husband has injured his leg and can't take care of himself, shouldn't you, as his wife, take care of him closely?
"They're taking care of the children!"
"What about Li Aidi?"
The daughter-in-law is reluctant to be used, but Old Lady Li is a man who favors sons over daughters. Why wouldn't she use her daughter either?
"My daughter..."
"Haha, I know. I saw it yesterday. Old Mrs. Li sold her daughter to Li Erhan!"
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped. Li Erhan, that old bachelor?
I heard that old bachelor likes to beat people, has a bad temper, and his family is dirt poor.
However, the old bachelor must have given Old Lady Li some benefits, otherwise, given Old Lady Li's stingy nature, she definitely wouldn't have agreed.
Han Qiang listened with a complicated expression. Fortunately, her sons hadn't come along, otherwise...
Although the relationship has been severed, some things cannot be changed. For example, Li Aidi is the mother of her several children.
"You married her off?" Han Qiang looked at Old Lady Li in disbelief.
"What kind of marriage is this? It's practically selling yourself, isn't it?"
Some people in Lijiazhuang didn't get along with Old Lady Li, and muttered something under their breath.
Han Qiang's face darkened even more upon hearing this.
“A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup, and what business is it of yours with a divorced wife? I’ve already said we’re cutting ties. Li Aidi has nothing to do with you anymore. She’s now a member of the Li family, and it’s none of your business how I handle things.”
The old woman from the Li family still resents Li Aidi. She always feels that if it weren't for Li Aidi, that jinx, her three sons wouldn't have met with this misfortune.
People are always like this, always thinking what they believe. She didn't even consider that Li Aidi had stopped them when they wanted to go to Han Qiang to ask for their things back then.
She didn't have much influence in the family, so naturally no one paid any attention to her.
"Alright, let's tidy up this room and air it out first. I'll go in when it's clean enough."
Although Han Luoyu said she would help them get treatment, she didn't want to be treated in the latrine.
At this moment, wasn't the old woman's room just like the outhouse?
"you……"
Looking at Han Luoyu, Old Lady Li wanted to say, "I just asked you to get treatment for an illness, what's with all this serious trouble?"
However, seeing the menacing faces of the people in Tiger Head Cliff Village, she swallowed her words.
She ran into the house on her little feet and started tidying up.
"Oh my, your wife is so good to her daughter-in-law. Even at a time like this, she won't let her daughter-in-law help."
"You can't get them to do it!"
Some people curled their lip in disdain.
"Are all the daughters-in-law of the Li family deaf? With such a commotion outside, how could they stay inside?"
The daughters-in-law had overheard what was being said outside, but inside they were all talking to themselves.
"Do you think our boss's leg is really crippled?"
"Oh, my poor eldest child, I should never have let her go!"
"Isn't my third child the same? How are we going to live in the future?"
"How about we go back to your parents' house?"
These three daughters-in-law were often bullied by the three brothers in the past.
The three men were already burly and had bad tempers, constantly beating and verbally abusing the three women. Now that they were injured, their women were even more afraid to approach them.
Fearing an even fiercer beating, they all hid, preferring to be scolded and nagged by the old woman from the Li family rather than go over and get beaten.
They even considered taking this opportunity to go back to their parents' home, hoping to sever ties with those three people, but they didn't dare.
I'm afraid that if the three brothers really get better, I'll beat them to death.
"Should we go outside?"
The third son's wife asked timidly.
"Go out where? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"
The other two shrank back, but ultimately continued to play dead inside the house.
Old Mrs. Li was quite efficient; she tidied up the room and ventilated it in less than half an hour, making the room smell less unpleasant.
Han Luoyu went inside, followed by Han Yuchen. Han Luoxue was still in the courtyard; with such a strong smell, she dared not go in.
She was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back her vomiting. She hadn't been this fussy before, but since becoming pregnant, she had become extremely sensitive to smells. The smell in the yard almost made her throw up as soon as she entered.
With nothing else to do, Han Luoxue wandered around the courtyard at will. At first, people paid attention to her because she was just walking around casually, but then a shrill scream came from inside the house, and no one paid any attention to Han Luoxue anymore.
Seeing that everyone was drawn to the commotion inside, Han Luoxue slowly walked to the outside of the Li family's old woman's warehouse. Through the crack in the door, she could see the densely packed grains inside.
Haha, do you think this little crack in the door can stop her?
Han Luoxue looked at the grain inside and silently said, "Collect!"
A thousand kilograms of corn suddenly appeared in the space.
Adhering to the principle of never letting anything go, Han Luoxue even collected a large pile of sweet potatoes next to her.
Fortunately, the old woman from the Li family was stingy, and before she could even squander it, the thousand catties of grain had already passed through her hands.
Having successfully obtained the grain, Han Luoxue continued her stroll. She reached the door and tsk tsk, the sounds coming from inside were truly pitiful.
"ah……"
It was absolutely horrific.
At this moment, Han Luoyu was right next to Han Laoda and had already removed the cloth from his legs. Looking at the dirty, unrecognizable fabric, Han Luoyu was speechless.
"You used this kind of cloth to bandage her?"
Not only was the cloth too dirty, but the bandage was also too tight, causing the skin on both sides to bulge. Clearly, the doctor who treated the wound was not professional.
"Is this fabric not suitable?"
"This kind of wound needs to be covered with new cloth."
Now, the eldest son of the Li family is in excruciating pain in his leg; even the slightest touch causes him excruciating pain.
Han Luoyu didn't care whether he was in pain or not; since she was asked to come and make a house call, she had to check the wound.
"Young lady, my son is in a lot of pain. Look, his forehead is covered in cold sweat!"
Han Luoyu asked the old woman from the Li family to hold the man down, but the eldest son of the Li family struggled too much and it was difficult to subdue him, which made the old woman from the Li family feel very distressed.
"Or you can take it apart? You called me here for a medical consultation, so you should at least check the wound first, right? I'm not a god, I can't prescribe medicine without even looking at the wound."
