Everyone was stunned for a moment. So this guy was faking being unconscious. The Sun family members are all talented.
The village doctor said sternly, "Don't move it. You need to disinfect it, otherwise it will get infected, and if it gets infected, it will fester and you will die."
Sun Meifang was startled and quickly and obediently let the village doctor disinfect her.
The village doctor used a razor blade to scrape away the hair around the wound, disinfected it again with hydrogen peroxide and alcohol, stitched it up with two stitches using catgut, applied Panax notoginseng powder, and then bandaged it with gauze.
Throughout the entire process, Sun Meifang screamed her heart out, but the more she screamed, the heavier the village doctor's gestures became.
After all that was finally done, the village doctor said to Sun Tiezhu, "Disinfectant is two cents, alcohol is five cents, sutures are five cents, gauze and Panax notoginseng powder are two cents, that's one dollar and forty cents in total."
Sun Tiezhu reluctantly pulled out one yuan and forty cents from his pocket, then glared fiercely at Wang Daniu. This money had to be paid by the Wang family.
At this moment, Southwest also arrived with the captain of the Public Security Bureau. They came in a police car, which startled Sun Tiezhu, who immediately kept a distance of about five meters from Sun Meifang.
At this time, Sun Meifang hated Southwest to the extreme. She had long harbored feelings for him, but this blockhead simply ignored her.
Is Tang Xiaoling prettier than me? Can Tang Xiaoling even read? I'm quite something, I only graduated from elementary school, while Tang Xiaoling has never attended school at all.
Southwest, you blind bastard, you actually brought people to arrest me now, how can you face me?
Sun Meifang was truly heartbroken this time. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, and in the end, she burst into loud sobs, hating herself for being blind and misjudging the person.
The brigade leader had already gotten the gist of the matter from the Southwest. With a wave of his hand, Wang Daniu, Wang Erniu, and Sun Meifang were taken away together. The villagers looked at each other in disbelief. Was the Yan family serious?
Village Chief Ma was somewhat annoyed that Yan Xiaoqiang wasn't giving him face and didn't want to speak anymore, but he had to:
"You see, this is a new society now. You can't just throw mud at people like that; otherwise, it's a crime."
Everyone lowered their heads. Everyone talks about their own family matters; it's become a habit. But we can't talk nonsense like that anymore.
After this incident, the gossipy women of Mushroom Village disappeared. While Village Chief Ma was furious, he also felt that the Yan family's actions were correct.
The three men confessed honestly at the police station, leaving the captain somewhat amused and exasperated. The girl was only eight years old!
You're slandering someone for crawling into haystacks, but is it true that someone actually crawls into haystacks? The brigade leader was curious.
Indeed, someone did crawl into the haystack and was seen by Sun Meifang. Not only did she see it, she also heard those sounds that made people's hearts race.
These commotions gave her an idea: to smear Yan Xiaonan and make Southwest heartbroken, since she wouldn't marry her.
But how could she, with her deep cunning, take matters into her own hands? So, she set her sights on Wang Daniu, who hated Yan Xiaonan the most.
Wang Daniu really has no brains. She was easily fooled by Sun Meifang and joined in the commotion, even taking it upon herself to bring Wang Erniu along.
If Yan Xiaonan can't explain it clearly, then she'll have to marry Wang Erniu. So, I'll just swap marriages with Yan Xiaonan. That would be the best solution!
Sun Xiaomei was so angry she almost ground her teeth to powder. A winning hand had been ruined by Wang Daniu's selfishness.
The police officer looked at the girl's distorted face and couldn't help but shake his head. Jealousy can drive people crazy, and that's no exaggeration.
The police severely punished those who slander and defame others out of jealousy or because they could not obtain what they wanted.
Sun Meifang is the most guilty, so she should stay in there obediently for three months.
Wang Daniu and Wang Erniu, this brother and sister duo, are aiding and abetting evil; let them stay for two months.
Upon hearing the news brought back from the Southwest, Yan Xiaonan let out a wail, lamenting, "What an unexpected disaster!"
However, through this incident, Yan Xiaonan also deeply understood the nature of troublemakers in impoverished and remote areas.
The next day was the day the Tang family delivered the dowry. This time, the Tang family realized how popular the Southwest was and put even more effort into their daughter's dowry.
The quilts and blankets on the oxcart were neatly folded.
A large wooden box was filled with clothes for all four seasons and shoes and socks for the groom's parents.
The basket was filled with white rice, eggs, red dates, and candy.
The most eye-catching items are two iron pots, one large and one small, as well as various pots, pans, and bowls.
The villagers' eyes turned red with envy. Everyone knew what kind of financial situation the Tang family was in; where did they get the money to prepare such a large dowry?
Tang's mother was an honest woman, and she truthfully told the story of how the Yan family had given her three hundred yuan as a bride price, and that the dowry came from that bride price.
As a result, those who wanted to mock the Tang family for marrying a rich man fell silent. Who would use all the betrothal gifts to subsidize their daughter's dowry? Getting ten or eight yuan would be considered good.
On the third day, the wedding officially began. It was the same bicycle, and the bride and groom, dressed in new clothes, rode it while the other handed out wedding candies.
The atmosphere was far less lively than when Dongnan got married; even the number of people attending the wedding was reduced by half, and at least no one from Cuihua's family came.
It's one thing that there were few people, but it seems that Sun Tiezhu deliberately caused trouble by choosing their wedding day to make a scene at Wang Gou Dan's house.
It was all because of that one dollar and forty cents that the Wang family was thrown into chaos. The villagers, for some reason, preferred to watch the Wang family cause trouble rather than attend the wedding.
This resulted in over a dozen people coming to the four tables outside. These people were really mean; even though there were enough seats for eight people per table (two tables), they insisted on taking up all four tables.
Yan Xinan already knew about these villagers. They were just jealous, so why bother getting angry with them?
But Tang Xiaoling felt uneasy. It was all because of Sun Meifang, who was jealous that she had married into the Southwest, so her family deliberately made things difficult for her.
Southwest didn't say anything, but led Tang Xiaoling around the new house, letting her take a good look at her new home.
The furniture we're using now belongs to Bei Nan; my own was taken by Nan Nan. However, Bei Nan will have a new set made when she gets married.
Tang Xiaoling was naturally familiar with these pieces of furniture. Her mother had once said that she wanted a set, but unfortunately there was no wood available. Unexpectedly, her mother never got to use them, but she herself did.
There were also double happiness characters and paper-cut window decorations all over the room, brand new bright red quilts, towels, washbasins, thermos flasks, and everything else you could need.
Looking at the luxurious and cozy new house, Tang Xiaoling felt healed. As long as she was doing well, she didn't care if they were jealous or ungrateful.
"Xiaoling, did your mom give you the booklet?" Southwest asked with a grin.
Tang Xiaoling blushed and awkwardly took out a booklet wrapped in a white handkerchief from the box, then placed the handkerchief on the bed.
The sound of a well pulley outside the curtain startled her, her brows furrowed and a smile playing on her lips.
The willow shade is light and indistinct, and the hairpin falls from her lowered temple.
We must dedicate our lives to making the most of today's joy.
