When she saw that her son's head had been smashed open with a stick, Mrs. Tan was also frightened.
She had intended to hit Leng Hua, but she lost control and used all her strength.
"Yan Gang..."
Han Lenghua was also startled; she hadn't expected her mother-in-law to be so ruthless.
"I... feel dizzy."
Yan Gang felt his vision blur. He raised his hand to grab something, but he slumped to the ground.
Han Lenghua failed to catch him and turned pale with fright.
"I...I didn't mean to."
Tan was also terrified. She threw down the stick in her hand and staggered, forgetting that there was a large iron pot boiling water behind her.
She lost her balance and fell flat on her backside with a thud, followed by a pig-like scream.
The sound was shrill and chilling, and it carried far.
Hearing the screams, Han Lenghua didn't have time to watch the commotion. She quickly helped her husband up.
"Ah, Mother..."
The other families who were watching the commotion outside the kitchen shed could no longer stand idly by when they saw what was happening. Some of them reacted quickly and rushed over to try to pull Tan Shi, who was sitting in the pot, up.
The water in the pot wasn't boiling yet, but it was almost ready.
At this moment, Tan was scalded and cried out in pain, her forehead covered in sweat.
The neighbors were used to Tan beating and scolding Han Lenghua, and when they heard something was wrong today, they came over to see what was going on.
When they saw what was happening, everyone was so surprised they were speechless.
Han Lenghua was covered in blood, Yan Gang's head was still bleeding, and Tan Shi was still in the pot.
There was a fire burning under the pot, made of some tree branches as thick as bowls, crackling and burning brightly.
"What's wrong?"
Yan Ming, the village head of Yan Family Village, happened to walk by and was terrified when he saw what was happening.
It was Tan's screams that startled him awake. His face darkened, and he said coldly:
"What are you doing? Are you planning to cook and eat your mother?"
The Yan brothers were dumbfounded; how could they dare?
The crowd hurriedly pulled Tan out; her clothes clung to her body, burning her so much that she kept crying out.
Yan Ming had someone help her into the room to change her clothes, but Tan Shi was in excruciating pain with the slightest movement.
Why is it so lively?
When Han Luoxue and Han Yuchen arrived, they saw many people gathered in the yard of Yan Gang's house.
Her heart skipped a beat, fearing that something had happened to her aunt.
The original owner had a good impression of this timid and cowardly aunt.
Although my aunt's family was poor, they always brought her some good food when they came to visit.
The time she remembered most clearly was when she brought a few pieces of candy.
Sugar was a luxury in ancient times. It wasn't until after my aunt passed away that my father said she had bought it by selling her hair.
The story goes that Xiaoya was sick, but her mother-in-law wouldn't give her money for medical treatment. Helpless, the couple took Xiaoya to town, bought her hair for treatment, and used the remaining money to buy some candy.
The eldest aunt secretly gave the original owner two extra pieces.
That was the most delicious candy in the original owner's memory.
Unlike her second aunt who always took her things, the original owner still really hoped that her eldest aunt would come to the Han family.
Children's thoughts are simple; all they want is something delicious, right?
Han Luoxue squeezed her petite figure into the kitchen, her cold gaze sweeping over the space. When she saw her aunt and the middle-aged man lying on the floor, seemingly dead, her eyes turned icy.
She hurried forward, squatted down opposite her aunt, and said with unusual calmness:
"Auntie, don't cry, let me see."
After saying that, she put her hand to the man's nose to check, and finding that he had only fainted, she casually pulled out a bamboo tube:
"Auntie, come here, give him some water first."
This is pure spiritual spring water. At this moment, Han Lenghua was already so frightened that she didn't know what to do. Upon hearing Han Luoxue's words, she mechanically raised a hand to help.
Although Yan Gang was unconscious, he was still conscious and able to swallow on his own. After drinking half a bucket of water, Han Luoxue laid him flat, removed Han Lenghua's hand, and said coldly:
"Let go first."
"His head is bleeding, I can't let go."
"It will still flow even if you press it down."
Han Luoxue's voice seemed to have a calming effect, and Han Lenghua regained some of her senses. She carefully released the hand that had been pressing down on her.
The bleeding was a bit too fast. Han Luoxue checked it, found the wound, and quickly pressed on the nearby blood vessels.
The renowned doctor Xu wasn't staying at her house for nothing. Although she didn't know how to treat illnesses yet, she remembered the blood vessels and acupoints perfectly.
Han Luoxue pressed the button for only a moment, and sure enough, the bleeding stopped.
Yan Gang also woke up, opened his eyes, and saw a beautiful woman suddenly appear in front of him. He was stunned for a moment before he could react.
"Uncle, I am Xueyatou."
"Snow Girl? You've become so beautiful!"
Yan Gang was still dazed. Han Luoxue saw that he could speak without any problems, so she found a clean strip of cloth and wanted to bandage him up.
"Xue'er, I have medicine here, let me do it."
Han Yuchen walked over, and Han Luoxue was surprised, but nodded on the surface.
Looking at the horrific scars on Han Yuchen's face, it's not unusual that he has wound medicine on him, given that he has suffered such severe injuries.
Han Yuchen's movements were extremely skilled. He skillfully used the remaining water in the bamboo tube to clean the wound, then sprinkled on the medicinal powder, tore open the cloth strips to bandage it. The speed was so fast that anyone who didn't know better would think he had done it countless times.
"Ouch, it hurts, no..."
On the other side of the kitchen, several daughters-in-law were still trying to take off Tan's clothes.
However, now that I've wasted this little bit of time, my clothes are sticking to my body, and it hurts terribly if I move even slightly.
Han Luoxue turned her head and glanced at the chaotic group of people over there, and said coldly:
"If it's hard to take off, cut it open."
Tan's body was still steaming. It was obvious that she had been burned; unless you took off your clothes immediately after being burned, you wouldn't be able to get them off at all.
"You spendthrift! We barely have any clothes left in the house, and you're going to cut them up?"
A woman was cursing at someone with a cold face.
Han Luoxue sneered: "Then keep feeling the pain while still dressed!"
At this moment, Han Yuchen had already helped Yan Gang up, and Han Luoxue asked:
"My uncle needs to rest, should we help him back first?"
Han Lenghua nodded with tears in her eyes. Her thin body was so frail that she was almost just a skeleton, which was heartbreaking to see.
Yan Gang's room was also in bad condition; it was small, damp, and never saw the sun. It was the room that they had rejected after considering several options.
Han Yuchen helped him lie down. At this moment, Han Lenghua looked at Han Luoxue and sighed:
"Snow Girl, I never knew you were so beautiful."
Looking at Han Luoxue, who was so beautiful she seemed to have stepped out of a painting, and then thinking about her own skinny daughter, Han Lenghua only felt annoyed at her own uselessness.
“Sigh, I heard a few days ago that your father was separated from his family. I wanted to go back and see him, but they wouldn’t let me.”
Han Lenghua explained, and Han Luoxue believed her.
"Auntie, what's going on today?"
Han Luoxue didn't see what happened in the kitchen, but she could guess pretty much what was going on. Her aunt's mother-in-law wouldn't hit her son; she probably wanted to hit her daughter-in-law.
