Upon hearing the words "broken shoe," Pan Gaozhi became furious: "I'm not a broken shoe, your son is the one who raped me. Your whole family set me up. I'm going to sue you and send your whole family to jail."
Erniu's mother snapped back to reality and saw Pan Gaozhi preparing to get off the kang (heated brick bed) and put on her shoes. She grabbed her arm and said, "If you dare to step out of this door, I'll kill myself right here."
How could Pan Gaozhi care about her life or death? He flung Erniu's mother away, causing her to stumble, and continued to get off the kang (heated brick bed) to put on his shoes. Erniu's mother got anxious and went up to push him hard, causing Pan Gaozhi, who was bending over to put on his shoes, to fall to the ground.
Pan Gaozhi had short legs and a big butt. With such a strong push, he fell heavily to the ground. Just as he was about to stand up, he felt a series of pains in his stomach, and then a warm sensation came out from his lower body.
"My child!" Pan Gaozhi cried out, clutching her stomach, beads of sweat appearing on her forehead.
Upon hearing about the child, Erniu's mother finally came to her senses and rushed over to help Pan Gaozhi up. However, Pan Gaozhi weighed twice as much as her and was in such a state that it was impossible to lift her up.
In her panic, she cried out for Erniu's father. Wang Gou Dan and Village Chief Ma, who were in the main room, heard the conversation inside clearly. Village Chief Ma no longer cared about scolding Wang Gou Dan and quickly turned around to go find the village doctor, because a pregnant woman couldn't afford to fall.
Pan Gaozhi was carried onto the kang (a heated brick bed) by Wang Gou Dan and his wife. When Wang Gou Dan saw the pool of blood on the ground, he knew that his grandson was gone, and without hesitation, he slapped Er Niu's mother.
Erniu's mother was terrified. She hadn't even reacted to the slap yet. She stared blankly at Pan Gaozhi, who was clutching her stomach and screaming. She had only one thought in her mind: I've messed up. I've lost my grandson.
Looking at Erniu's mother, who seemed dazed and confused, Wang Gou Dan suddenly felt that life was really tiring. He was always hungry and cold, and after working himself to the bone for a year, the money he earned either went to paying off debts or covering medical expenses. He finally managed to trick a wife into coming back, but ended up getting his son into jail.
My mother is bedridden and half-dead, my grandson was killed by that stupid wife, and my eldest daughter is unwanted and looks like she'll never get married. What's the point of this family? I might as well just burn it down.
Wang Gou Dan ran into the kitchen as if possessed, lit a piece of firewood, grabbed a torch, and started setting fires everywhere, a destructive smile on his face.
Village Chief Ma walked in with the village doctor. He immediately saw Wang Gou Dan, who looked like a madman, lighting a fire. Enraged, he ran over, snatched the torch from Wang Gou Dan's hand, and kicked him, jolting him awake.
Most of the houses in the village are made of wood. If the fire starts and the northwest wind blows, the entire Mushroom Village will be destroyed. Village Chief Ma and the village doctor couldn't care less about saving people. They picked up the Wang family's basins and buckets and scooped water from the water tank to put out the fire.
Fortunately, Wang Gou Dan regained consciousness. The water tank in the house was full, and the fire was extinguished before it could be lit again. The village chief carefully checked every place and was relieved to find that the fire was out.
The eldest, second, and third daughters were startled and hid in their rooms, trembling with fear. They didn't even dare to cry. The village chief opened the door, glanced at them, and shook his head in disappointment. They were all useless and couldn't compare to the Yan family's youngest daughter.
Seeing that everything was alright, the village doctor went into Wang Erniu's house. Pan Gaozhi was still howling, and the village doctor impatiently scolded, "Quiet down, do you still want to be treated?"
Pan Gaozhi immediately fell silent. The village doctor took her pulse and carefully examined her. After a long while, the village doctor told Pan Gaozhi, "I can't be sure if your child can be saved. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to drink first. If you don't believe me, you don't have to drink it. Go to the town hospital to get checked out."
Wang Gou Dan snapped out of his despair: "Village doctor, is my grandson still alive?"
The village doctor gave him a disgusted look and said, "Try to try to save the pregnancy first. The pregnant woman cannot get out of bed and must pay attention to nutrition. Can you do that? If not, don't try to save the pregnancy. Go directly to the hospital."
"Yes, yes, I can do it," Wang Gou Dan said repeatedly.
"Village chief, I need to borrow money to help my son have a child. Just leave me enough food for my family at the end of the year."
Village Chief Ma nodded helplessly. How could he not agree? If the Wang family's grandson was in danger, who knew what other trouble they might cause? "Go to the village committee and ask Accountant Ma to borrow money and get it stamped. Take the money to get the medicine."
Back home, Village Chief Ma just wanted to get a good night's sleep. He was not only physically exhausted today, but also mentally exhausted. If Mushroom Village had a few more Wang Gou Dans, he really wouldn't want to be the village chief anymore.
Today I received some very disheartening news: Widow Zhang and the old bachelor will be back in two years at the latest. Who knows what will happen to the village then? I asked the brigade leader if they could be detained for a few more years, but the brigade leader shook his head and said that they would be released when the time was up.
Judging from the village chief's expression, Sister-in-law Ma knew that her husband was bound to have a bad day. She figured that Wang Gou Dan's family was shameless and nothing good could come of it, so she didn't ask any more questions and just asked Ma Minghua to help her cook in the kitchen.
In the late afternoon, Yan Beinan was feeding the pigs in the yard when Zhongzi suddenly roared. Yan Beinan was startled, and her consciousness spread outward. A group of people rushed in, and when she saw the sleeves on their arms, Yan Beinan understood.
If Mao Tou were here, he would definitely recognize this person. It's the brother his cousin trusted who took over the black market. He's no longer involved in the black market; he's moved to a higher-level organization.
They were searching everywhere for Mao Tou, but they couldn't catch him. One of their subordinates revealed that Mao Tou had a good relationship with Bei Nan, so this group of people came looking for Bei Nan.
"Yan Beinan, hand over Maotou to me, or I'll make things difficult for you!" someone shouted.
Bei Nan looked at her and realized that this was Xiao Sanjiao. Why was she with these people? "I've never seen Mao Tou before. Aren't you always with Mao Tou? You even often invite Mao Tou to eat at state-run restaurants."
Little Triangle was startled. What Bei Nan said was all true, and these kinds of things couldn't be questioned too much. She secretly glanced at the leader, and sure enough, the guy's expression changed.
Enraged, Xiao Sanjiao threw a punch at Yan Beinan's face. Beinan turned her head to the side, then stretched out her long leg and kicked Xiao Sanjiao against the door.
The leader was startled; this was a tough one. He waved his hand, preparing to order his men to rush in and ransack the house. Bei Nan straightened up: "I don't get along with Mao Tou. We started fighting when we were in school. How could I possibly be with Mao Tou?"
Bei Nan looked at the leader and said, but the leader ignored Bei Nan and waved his hand again. A group of people rushed into the main room and began to rummage through the chests and cabinets.
