Chapter 50 Borrowing Medicine
The flying hailstones were in front of her eyes in an instant like bullets. Wan Ersao hurriedly hugged Xiao Fubao and changed direction. The hailstones hit Wan Ersao's back like raindrops.
Wan Ersao was still wearing the same thin, patched, gray, cross-breasted coat that she had worn when she went out.
At this time, the hailstones hit Wan Ersao's body like iron and stone hitting each other. The piercing pain made Wan Ersao's face show pain.
The little Fubao in her arms felt her mother’s pain. The little guy blinked his big eyes and tears popped out of his eyes like golden beans.
The little meaty hand touched Wan Ersao's brow, and kept muttering: "Liang--whoosh--whoosh--"
When Wan Ersao saw her daughter crying, she endured the burning pain in her back and forced a smile to comfort the little one: "My dear, I'm fine, don't be afraid, my dear, don't cry. I feel even more distressed when I see you crying."
Little Fubao quickly raised his little hand to wipe away his tears, then opened his little mouth and smiled at Mrs. Wan Er.
Wan Wen, who was standing next to Wan Ersao, was unhappy. Seeing his mother and sister being bullied for no reason, he, as a son and brother, should stand up and protect his mother and sister.
Wan Wen grabbed a handful of hail that had not yet melted from the ground and threw it at Wan Die Lan.
Wan Dielan was still immersed in regret. She was resentful that Wan Ersao dodged quickly and the hailstones did not hit the little girl, when she saw the white hailstones coming towards her.
Wan Die Lan turned pale with fright. She had no time to escape and could only retreat backwards in embarrassment.
Fortunately, she escaped the hailstorm without any harm. Just when she was secretly thankful, her foot slipped and her body fell backwards involuntarily.
As luck would have it, the back of her head hit a lump of earth squarely.
This is originally a wasteland with clods of earth everywhere, and you can easily trip over them if you're not careful.
Wan Die Lan's head hit the ground first. She felt a splitting headache, her eyes went dark, and she fainted.
Wan Wen felt extremely regretful and hated himself for not throwing it harder. But in the blink of an eye, he saw Wan Die Lan fall down by herself.
Wan Wen clapped his hands and snorted coldly: "You deserve it, you deserve it!"
The Wan family hurriedly took Wan Ersao back to check on her injuries, and had no time to take care of Wan Dielan.
Liu and Wan Jinshu had already returned to the shed, supporting each other. Her two daughters-in-law, Sun and Qiu, followed closely behind Liu.
Liu had lost a front tooth and her speech was lisp.
After helping Wan Jinshu lie down, Liu realized that her daughter had not returned yet.
"Second son's wife, go and see why Lan'er hasn't come back yet?" Sun was not angry at being ordered around by her mother-in-law. She responded with a smile and went out.
Sun has always been thick-skinned. She can bend and stretch for survival, even selling her body.
Sun found Wan Die Lan, but discovered that her sister-in-law was lying motionless on the ground.
Sun stepped forward and kicked Wan Die Lan. She had always disliked this quarrelsome sister-in-law, and now she hated her even more.
Wan Die Lan showed no reaction after being kicked. Sun's heart skipped a beat. What is... ?
Sun was so scared that she quickly squatted down and felt Wan Die Lan's nose. She found that she was still breathing. However, the kick she had just given her sister-in-law was very heavy, but she still didn't wake up. It was obvious that something was wrong.
Sun hardened her heart and pinched Wandielan hard. The skin under Wandielan's clothes instantly turned purple, but she still kept her eyes closed and had no reaction.
Sun was horrified and hurriedly shook Wan Die Lan, shouting, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, wake up quickly."
However, Wandelan did not react at all.
Sun was panicking. Liu treated her daughter like a treasure. She turned around and shouted into the shed, "Mother, my sister-in-law seems to be asleep. No matter how much we shout, she won't wake up."
Upon hearing this, Liu didn't care about the pain in the corner of her mouth, covered her mouth, got up from the ground, and rushed straight towards Wan Die Lan.
"Lan'er..." Liu threw herself on Wandielan and tried frantically to check her breath. Her daughter was her life. If anything happened to her daughter, she would not be able to live.
Liu was slightly relieved when she realized that Wandielan was still breathing, but she couldn't wake her up no matter what.
It took the combined efforts of Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Sun to move the orchid back into the shed.
It was then that Liu noticed that the back of Wandielan's head was covered in blood, and it was obvious that she was in a coma due to a brain injury.
"Jin Shu, your sister is injured. Can you ask that country bumpkin for some medicine and apply it on your sister? Her wound is bleeding and her life is in danger. I only have this one biological daughter. I..."
When the words were about to come out of Old Mrs. Wan's mouth, she suddenly realized that she had spoken the truth. She quickly stopped talking and wanted to change her words, but seeing that Wan Jinshu didn't seem to care, she didn't say anything more.
Wan Jinshu frowned and stared at Wan Die Lan's injuries, which were indeed quite serious.
However, their family of five had just had a dispute, and Mrs. Wan's family obviously favored them and their children more, and might not lend the medicine to Wan Die Lan.
Seeing that Wan Jinshu was indifferent, Liu's heart tightened and tears burst out like a flood.
As soon as Wan Jinshu heard Liu's howling, he quickly raised his hand to stop her and said, "Mom, I understand. I'll try, but it may not work. Be prepared."
Liu stopped crying immediately. As long as it worked, she could save some tears. After all, pretending to cry was really tiring.
Wan Jinshu supported himself and staggered to the corner where Old Lady Wan and her family lived alone.
At this time, Old Lady Wan was watching Sister-in-law Wan San applying medicine to Sister-in-law Wan Er. Sister-in-law Wan Er's back was broken and her clothes were stained with blood.
Old Lady Wan was so angry that her face turned blue. She sat in the shed and cursed: "You old fat pig going to the butcher shop - you are a piece of meat that will be slaughtered. This little girl who looks so gentle and kind is really a wicked person who has a sore on her back and pus coming out of her navel - she dared to lay a hand on our little Fubao. Wan Wen, you did a good job this time. Grandma will reward you with a piece of peach cake later."
Wan Wen didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly. He just instinctively protected his mother and sister, but he didn't expect that his grandmother would reward him with a piece of peach cake.
He couldn't stop drooling when he thought of the delicious peach cake he had eaten during the day, but he still resisted the urge to eat and said reluctantly, "Grandma, I don't want to eat peach cake. I'll leave it for my sister. I'm grown up now, and as long as I have something to eat and don't starve to death, that's enough."
After listening to her grandson's sensible words, Old Lady Wan became more and more dissatisfied with Wan Die Lan and felt that she lacked education.
If it wasn't time to rest, she would have gone to find Liu to argue with her and ask her how this good girl from a prominent family in the capital was raised?
Just at this moment, the short-sighted Wan Jinshu bumped into the muzzle of Old Lady Wan's gun.
Wan Jinshu walked to the door of Old Lady Wan's shed with difficulty, and immediately saw Zhao sitting next to Old Lady Wan, holding her little daughter Wan Yirou in her arms.
Wan Jinshu felt a sharp pain in his heart and a hint of anger. He couldn't understand why things had developed to this point.
In his simple understanding, shouldn't a daughter-in-law be filial to her mother-in-law?
Why is Zhao so stubborn and won't listen to anything?
Wan Jinshu thought about his own business and temporarily suppressed the strange feeling in his heart.
"Aunt, my sister just fell and hurt her head, and the bleeding won't stop. Could you please lend me some medicine to stop the bleeding?"
Old Lady Wan had just caught a glimpse of Wan Jinshu and thought that he had thought it through and came here to apologize to Zhao. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was like rubbing salt into Old Lady Wan's wound.
It was not convenient for the several daughters-in-law to come forward at this time, and only she, the old woman, could teach the former god of war of the Great Qi Kingdom a lesson.
Although the old lady thought so, she still left some room for maneuver when she spoke: "General Wan, may I ask, how many sisters do you have? Which sister is injured?"
Wan Jinshu looked at Old Lady Wan in surprise, thinking, isn't this a question you ask even though you already know the answer?
They traveled together for several days, and he didn't believe that Old Lady Wan didn't know that he was talking about Wan Die Lan.
Wan Jinshu smiled awkwardly and said, "Aunt, I only have one younger sister, born to my stepmother. Should you have known this before?"
After Old Lady Wan checked the number, she lost her good face, sat back down, and asked coldly: "General Wan, although I have been dealing with land all my life, I think I am not as cunning as you who were born in the big families in the capital, but I am not stupid.
Today, I want to ask the general, if someone abuses your family, can you repay evil with kindness and save the person who hurt your family? "
Wan Jinshu didn't understand why Old Lady Wan asked this question. He did not witness the process of Wan Die Lan committing the crime, nor did he know that Wan Die Lan and Old Lady Wan's family had a grudge against each other.
But he still answered seriously: "Of course not. Although I have been on the march and fought in wars, I still understand the ways of the world."
Old Mrs. Wan snorted in her heart: You know shit.
However, Mrs. Wan did not show it on her face, but said calmly: "Then please go back, General, and ask your good sister what she did to us just now? It's not too late to come back."
Wan Jinshu was sent back confused by Old Lady Wan.
Wan Jinshu finally managed to endure the pain and return to the shed, but Liu stopped him. She didn't care about his health at all and asked him directly, "How is it? Did you get the medicine?"
Wan Jinshu shook his head. "Mom, it seems that what Auntie said is that Lan'er did something to hurt their family. Why don't you wake Lan'er up and ask about the situation?"
When Liu heard this, she was immediately furious, but the only one who could get the medicine now was Wan Jinshu. She couldn't lose her temper and still used her trump card to deal with Wan Jinshu.
"Jin Shu, don't you know your sister yet? She has never dared to step on an ant since she was a child, so how could she hurt others?"
Liu's sobbing and wailing made Wan Jinshu very annoyed, but he still patiently persuaded her: "Mother, it is impossible for someone to wrongly accuse Lan'er for no reason. Lan'er must have done something inappropriate."
Liu refused to listen and insisted that Wan Jinshu get the medicine. If she delayed any further, her daughter would be finished.
"Jin Shu, even if you want to ask your sister something, you should wait until she wakes up, right? But how can she wake up without taking medicine?"
Wan Jinshu felt that what Liu said was right. He also wanted to know what had happened that caused the usually kind old lady Wan to have such an attitude.
Wan Jinshu staggered towards Old Lady Wan again. Liu looked at Wan Jinshu's back and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
