Chapter 197 Heavy Bleeding
Lu Chunmei laughed angrily: "Oh, this is still a lump of meat and you know it's a son? How can you be so capable? I also told you, there is nothing you can't afford to pay for. Any woman can give birth. Dongcai doesn't necessarily have to let you give birth to him. With a bad woman like you, I don't think you can give birth to a son. It's so funny, and you still have the energy to argue with me, then why are you still whining and pretending!"
Wen Wan was in the yard. At first, she heard a child crying and thought that something happened to a few children. She was about to call Lu Donglin to ask him to keep an eye on them. But when she reached the entrance of the yard, she heard Lu Chunmei's voice, crackling like firecrackers. The child's crying and Li Laiying's crying were intertwined. Wen Wan felt a little headache when she heard it.
Is this, another fight?
During this Chinese New Year, there really isn't a single day of peace.
When I went over, I saw Li Laiying squatting there holding her stomach and crying.
Lu Chunmei was still cursing.
My own mother has been bullied by this woman for so long, and now my own daughter has to suffer as well when she comes back.
This is the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, not her ancestor, and she will not endure it.
Lu Chunyan pulled her aside and said, "Alright, stop talking. Hurry up and get him back inside. In case something bad really happens during the first month of the lunar year."
Gao Xiulan sighed: "Chunmei, listen to your sister. She is pregnant after all. Don't make trouble with her. Just consider it as helping your mother."
As she said this, she held Chuyi in one hand and tried to support Li Laiying with the other hand, but Li Laiying pushed her away: "Go away, there's no need for you to be hypocritical, no need. You all wish that I am not well and that I can't give birth to a son--" As she said this, she stood up, bent over, covered her stomach and walked into the house.
Gao Xiulan was almost unable to hold Chuyi in her arms when she swung him around. Fortunately, Lu Chunmei was quick to help him. She was about to curse, but Gao Xiulan stopped her: "Be quiet, the noise is making people laugh. If she doesn't want you to care, then don't care. Do whatever you want!"
Lu Chunmei gritted her teeth and swallowed her words back.
Li Laiying walked into the house holding her belly. Everyone thought she was pretending and ignored her. When she stepped over the threshold and lifted her legs, something started to flow down from the center of her legs, more violently than when she was having her period.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't stop the bad premonition. She slid down the door frame, kneeling on the ground and wailing: "My son, my son, you murderers, you will not die a good death."
Wen Wan called out to Gao Xiulan, "Aunt, don't be angry with her. I think she's really not feeling well. Go and see if she's okay."
Then he reached out to hold Chuyi: "I'll hold the child and go take a look."
Gao Xiulan really didn't want to care about it, but seeing that the situation was really not right, she gave Chuyi to her, and then without caring whether she was angry or not, she walked to the door in two or three steps to pull her.
Li Laiying was sobbing until she was gasping for breath. The piercing pain in her stomach didn't stop her from venting her hatred: "Go away, go away! My son is gone. If my son is gone, I'll just die. If I die, it's you mothers who killed us. You are all murderers. You will all die miserably!"
Wen Wan called out to Lu Donglin, "Go, go to the field and call your brother Dongcai."
Lu Donglin ran away.
No matter how angry they were, they had to suppress their anger. Gao Xiulan called on Lu Chunyan and her sister to help drag the man up. There was a mark where she had sat down just now.
Li Laiying was still punching, kicking, crying and cursing.
Gao Xiulan looked at the mark on the ground, reached out and grabbed her, touched her butt, and her hands were covered in blood.
She yelled at the top of her lungs, "Can you please be quiet? Huh? If you really miss, just say so and I'll stop caring. If you die, I'll take your place, okay?"
Just as he was saying this, Lu Dongcai came back. The men who had gone to the private plots had all returned.
"What's going on?"
Gao Xiulan said, "No matter what her condition is, hurry up. Dongcai, go find some door panels or even a stretcher. The quickest way is best. Get her to the clinic. She's covered in blood."
Li Laiying was like a madman at the moment, how could the door panel hold her?
Several grown men hurriedly tied up the stretcher, and Lu Dongcai carried Li Laiying and put her on it.
Lu Mingjiang and his wife also came over.
Li Laiying was restless and even a pool of blood didn't stop her from crying and cursing.
The sound gradually faded away until several people carried the person away.
Gao Xiulan went into the house to get some money and hurriedly followed. Lu Chunmei thought for a moment and said to Lu Chunyan, "Sister, you stay at home. Aunt San and Wanwan can't handle so many children alone. I have to go with her and ask the doctor what's going on. Is she pregnant or what happened? We can't let the children bear the blame like this."
Lu Chunyan said, "I'm watching over the child for you. Go ahead and be careful. It's already like this. Don't make trouble with her anymore. There are so many people in the brigade. It's going to make a fool of itself."
Lu Chunmei responded randomly twice and hurriedly followed.
Wang Changshun was crying even harder than Wang Duoduo. He had only pushed her a little, not exerting much strength. He didn't know how this had happened. Thinking about what had just happened, he, at such a young age, didn't know what was going to happen next. He felt scared, especially scared. He never wanted to visit relatives again, and he never wanted to come to his grandfather's house again.
Zhang Hongying sighed and reached out to pull him and Duoduo over: "Okay, stop crying, come with Third Grandma to our place. Grandma has some candy, I'll give it to you."
Wen Wan also said to Lu Chunyan: "Sister, is there still something cooking in the kitchen? The fire in the stove cavity has died down. Otherwise, don't bother with it. Close the door and come sit with us for a while. It's safer to put the children in the yard."
There was bacon cooking in the pot, which was specially used to entertain them, but because of this incident, they were afraid that they couldn't even eat the dragon meat.
I don’t know if I brought the key or not, but I closed the door, locked it, took Li Guangming and followed Zhang Hongying to the next door.
Wen Wan was holding Chuyi in her arms and was busy. Lu Chun'e hurried into the house, took out a stool, put it under the eaves and asked her to sit down.
Zhang Hongying went into the house again to get some candy, which was bought by Wen Wan before the New Year. She gave her a handful to keep to sweeten her mouth, but she kept it there and couldn't bear to eat it.
He took them out and gave two to each of the three children, then he coaxed Wang Changshun and Duoduo: "Don't cry, it won't look good if you cry and your face turns into a cat."
Wang Duoduo saw that Tang had stopped crying, but Changshun was older and thought more, so he couldn't bear it.
"Third grandma, I, my second aunt, will she die?" the child asked while crying, with fear in his eyes: "I, I didn't mean to do it. She dug Duoduo down and I pushed her. I just pushed her and that's how it happened. I didn't mean to do it. I won't push anyone again."
He stammered while crying. Zhang Hongying was so distressed that she picked up the child and put him on her knees, patting him: "It's okay, it's okay, don't cry. What's the matter with dying? Pah, pah, pah, it's New Year's Day, let's not say such unlucky things! We've sent him to see a doctor, he'll be fine. Changshun is a capable child, he knows to protect his sister. It's okay, play with Guangming and your sister, don't you still have uncle Donglin, play with him, don't run outside the yard!"
Wang Changshun nodded with a sob: "No, I won't run away."
Zhang Hongying was also furious and asked Lu Donglin, "What's going on? Look how scared the child is. Weren't you the one playing with him?"
Lu Donglin sat on a bench with an annoyed look on his face. "Yeah, we were having fun when Li Laiying came out of the kitchen. Duoduo happened to be at the kitchen door and bumped into her. She didn't even try to avoid her, but reached out and pushed her away. Duoduo was so young, she fell down so fast. Shunzi got angry when he saw her and pushed her, and she fell to the ground."
Zhang Hongying sighed, "This is really terrible. If the baby is lost, there will be a lot of trouble."
Lu Chunyan was also frowning. "The blood has soaked through her cotton pants. I'm afraid she's in serious condition. How could she have done this? Back then, Mom was saying that she'd become more and more unruly since she got pregnant with Chuyi. She was like a completely different person. Chunmei and I didn't believe it. If she had been more careful and polite after the fall, how could she have ended up like this?"
"You shouldn't have come back today. It's not a good day to go back to your parents' home."
Lu Chunyan is worried!
"If this child is really lost, it will make Chunmei my mortal enemy, and my mother's family will never come back. That's not all. My mother won't be able to speak in front of her anymore."
Zhang Hongying said, "Don't overthink it. It's definitely okay. How could a child die just by sitting down?"
Wen Wan held Chuyi in her arms without saying a word. The adults looked worried, but she was not worried at all. She basked in the sun for a while and fell asleep with her eyes closed.
"Asleep? If so, put him inside. Don't hold him all the time."
Wen Wan carefully handed the child to Zhang Hongying, stood up and shook her arms, then called Lu Chunyan: "Sister, let me pour you some water!"
Lu Chunyan didn't bother to be polite with her.
Wen Wan went into the kitchen, took out two bowls and poured water, then asked Zhang Hongying: "Auntie and the others are in a mess today, let my elder and second sisters eat here this afternoon!"
Zhang Hongying nodded: "Sure, I'll go get some bacon. It's still early, so it'll be enough for lunch."
Lu Chunyan quickly refused: "Aunt San, please don't bother me anymore. My mother has also cooked meat and is stewing it in the pot!"
"She is she, I am me. When you two sisters come back, I can't afford to give you a meal or anything. You can't be so polite to me, I'm going to get angry."
"Really, there's no need." These days, every household is struggling. They have a family to support, not to mention their own parents, and there is always a layer of separation between them and their uncles and aunts.
Zhang Hongying ignored her and asked Lu Chun'e to go to the field to pick garlic sprouts, and then she hurried into the kitchen to get the meat.
