Those around Ning Jing stared at Old Lady Zhang after hearing her words. After all, although they could afford to eat their fill, it didn't mean they had any extra money!
Just think about how much money Xiaofeng spent on medical treatment.
If it were my family in this situation, I wouldn't let it go so easily.
However, the key question is whether their family is willing and able to come up with the money in this situation.
But none of that prevents people from thinking this way!
When Old Lady Zhang saw everyone whispering that she, as the grandmother, should repay the money, her eyes rolled back and she collapsed to the ground.
"Oh dear, has this old lady fainted from anger?"
"Could it be that he's too old and can't handle any stress?"
These words were quite hurtful. Ning Jing looked up in the direction of the sound and saw Liu Mei and Deng Fengzhi disappearing into the crowd.
At this moment, Tan Dingguo separated the crowd and came out with the village officials.
"Red Star's wife, what exactly is going on?"
Seeing that someone had fainted, he couldn't just pretend nothing had happened, so he could only ask Ning Jing what had happened.
Ning Jing smiled at him and replied, "Village Chief, don't worry, nothing will happen."
"I have a treatment for fainting spells like this old lady's. Just wait!"
After saying that, she turned around and went back into the house. From her sewing basket, she pulled out a needle for sewing quilts. The needle was about an inch long.
"I've been to the hospital a lot and seen a lot of doctors. I've seen old doctors in the hospital prick the philtrum of unconscious people with a needle. Oh, the philtrum is the place below the nose. It guarantees that the person will wake up immediately."
After saying that, he waved the thick, long needle in his hand at everyone.
Upon seeing this, everyone gasped as they imagined such a thick needle piercing their own bodies.
When Old Lady Zhang heard what everyone said, her heart trembled, and she couldn't help but secretly open her eyes a crack to peek at Ning Jing's hands.
I was shocked when I took a look.
If such a big needle were stuck under her nose, wouldn't her mouth be pierced through? How painful would that be?
As Ning Jing bent down towards her with the needle in her hand, what a vicious woman!
In the blink of an eye, Old Lady Zhang rolled off the ground and dodged to the side.
Then he cursed angrily, "You have such a vicious heart!"
Ning Jing had already stood up straight when she rolled away.
Hearing her scolding, he wasn't angry. He simply said to Tan Dingguo, "Village Chief, you see, I told you the acupuncture worked!"
Tan Dingguo felt a surge of anger when he saw Zhang's old woman's shameless appearance.
Seeing Tan Dingguo's face darken, Old Lady Zhang changed the words she was about to use to scold Ning Jing.
She wiped away her tears and cried out in a drawn-out tone, "My poor old woman... my son and daughter-in-law have both been arrested, and Fu Hongxing, as their brother-in-law, hasn't helped at all."
My poor Zhang family is now just an old woman like me, all alone, and I can't even support myself.
Fu Hongxing, as the uncle, is trying to drive this old woman to her death just because he spent so little money on treating the child's illness!
What's the point of me living now? I might as well just die.
After saying that, he got up and pretended to ram his head against the door behind Ning Jing.
Hearing what Old Lady Zhang said, the onlookers couldn't help but sigh.
After all, people tend to have more sympathy for the weak.
