Chapter 384 Vomiting Blood
The villager nodded. "Yes, they're still discussing it over there."
Yuan Shanchuan couldn't help but take a step back, and Lu Sixing, worried about his health, quickly supported him.
His parents did say they wanted to sever ties yesterday, but most people would assume they were just saying it in anger and wouldn't take it to heart.
After all, people can say the most hurtful things when they're angry, let alone when they've suffered a great injustice.
But to his surprise, his parents actually put those words into action the next day.
Moreover, they were so impatient that they even fabricated a lie about his arrest and suggested that the village chief drive them out of Daxu Village.
Didn't they treat him like a son at all?
Seeing his pale and ashen face, the villager couldn't help but whisper, "The village chief and the respected elders of the village are still at your house. The village chief hasn't agreed yet, saying he has to see you and check on things first. But your parents... seem quite determined. They're blocking the village chief and the others, insisting on a resolution."
Yuan Shanchuan closed his eyes, and suddenly, with a 'poof' sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Sixing's expression changed drastically, "Mountains and rivers, mountains and rivers."
Shu Yu quickly helped her up and said in a low voice, "It's alright, Fourth Aunt, this is a good thing."
"Good news?" Lu Sixing was so frightened that her face turned pale.
Shu Yu nodded. "When the doctor left yesterday, he said that my fourth uncle had suffered severe internal injuries and had blood stasis in his body. He prescribed medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, saying that it would dissipate after taking it for a few days. But now that my fourth uncle has vomited out the blood stasis himself, it is actually more helpful for his recovery."
Upon hearing this, Lu Sixing breathed a huge sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."
She was relieved, but the villagers watching all stared wide-eyed.
Several people ran directly towards the Yuan family's old home, stopping panting at the gate of the old Yuan family mansion.
The Yuan family's old residence was bustling with activity as many people gathered to watch the Yuan family elders sever ties with Yuan Shanchuan and wait to see the outcome.
However, Village Chief Chen did not agree, so the courtyard became quiet for a moment.
The men who ran over shouted, "Yuan Shanchuan is back!!"
With a whoosh, everyone turned to look at the person who had spoken.
The Yuan family members also poured out, glaring at him and asking, "What did you just say? Who's back?"
"Shanchuan, Shanchuan is back. Not only him, but also his wife and children, and the Lu family came with him. However..." the man gasped for breath, "but Yuan Shanchuan doesn't look well. His face is pale, and he needed help getting out of the car. When he was almost at the door, he vomited a mouthful of blood. He should, he should not live much longer."
"What? He's going to die soon?"
Village Chief Chen stepped forward in a few strides, asking, "What exactly happened?"
The villager shook his head repeatedly, "I don't know. I saw Yuan Shanchuan vomiting blood, so I rushed over to tell you."
At this moment, the eldest son of the Yuan family suddenly said, “Village chief, aren’t we right? He must have committed a crime outside and been punished by the magistrate. When we saw him yesterday, he was in good spirits. But when we came out, he was detained by the magistrate. He must have committed a crime and been flogged or tortured.”
Village Chief Chen felt something was off about that statement. "Then why did he return to the village? If he really committed a crime, shouldn't he be locked up?"
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!!!
