Chapter 33 The rope breaks precisely where it's thin.



Yue Jiuyue ran towards the town and finally caught up with the people who were taking Lin Chaobei to the clinic when she was almost there.

It was the same wooden cart. Last time, the village chief, Lin Jiabang, led a group of people pulling a cart full of medicinal herbs. This time, the village chief's younger brother, Lin Jianing, led a group of people pulling a man with a stubble beard.

Yue Jiuyue's legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground.

It wasn't that she was heartbroken to see her son covered in blood; she was just running too fast and couldn't stop properly, so she twisted her ankle.

"My son! Why are you so unlucky! How could you get gored by a wild boar while just fetching water! You absolutely mustn't get hurt! If something happens to you, how am I supposed to live?"

Yue Jiuyue's ankle hurt so much that tears welled up in her eyes. Seeing the boy she had spent so many days with lying quietly in the wooden cart, covered in blood, she felt a lump in her throat and desperately needed to vent her grief. So she slapped her thigh and started howling.

"Auntie, Chaobei will definitely be fine. Now is not the time for him to wail. Let's hurry up and take him to the clinic so that the doctor can treat him properly!"

A young man about the same age as Chao Dong was supporting the heartbroken Yue Jiuyue. Yue Jiuyue was wailing loudly, feeling very sad and her ankle was really hurting, so she didn't notice who the young man was or what he was saying.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, the young man stopped trying. It would be strange if a mother didn't feel heartbroken to see her son injured like this, so he patiently helped Yue Jiuyue walk towards the town's clinic.

Standing in the clinic, watching the doctor busily and efficiently treat Lin Chaobei, Yue Jiuyue looked at Lin Chaobei lying there and suddenly remembered a saying: "A rope always breaks at its thinnest point, and misfortune only finds those with unfortunate fates."

If she hadn't transmigrated into this family, the original mother would be dead; Lin Chaonan's whereabouts and fate would be unknown; the family would have no surplus food or money, and Lin Chaobei would have lost too much blood without money for treatment, and might have died as well; as for the remaining four people, who knows if they could survive the coming famine years.

"The bleeding has stopped, and he should wake up soon. Take good care of him during this time, and if possible, give him some pig's blood to help him recover."

The doctor spoke directly to Lin Jianing.

Some people followed the doctor to get the medicine, while others carried Lin Chaobei to the wooden cart outside the clinic. Lin Jianing looked at Yue Jiuyue, who was silently shedding tears and lost in thought, and sighed deeply.

Life was just starting to get better. Some medicinal herbs could be sold for money, and in a few days, sweet potatoes could be planted. There was no need to worry about starving to death one day because there was nothing to eat. But then, that kid Chaobei had an accident.

Thinking about how Yue Jiuyue lost her husband when she was young, how her second son went to serve in the military two years ago and has not returned since, and how her youngest son has suddenly suffered a misfortune, Lin Jianing felt that this woman's life was too bitter!

With another sigh, Lin Jianing patted Lin Chaoan on the shoulder, telling him to go and take care of Yue Jiuyue, and then pulled Lin Chaobei toward Linjiagou.

Yue Jiuyue didn't know how she got home. When she came to her senses, she was sitting in front of Lin Chaobei's bed, looking at Lin Chaobei lying on the bed with his eyes closed, tears streaming down her face.

Life is so fragile! You never know when an accident might happen and you're gone.

Just like her last time she transmigrated, she could clearly sense the original owner's excitement, but she was immediately faced with the fear of impending death, and she didn't even know why she died.
