Chapter 111 Unbearable
Jiang Ruzhen was still pushing the money out of her hand when she heard Bai Hua's voice and looked over.
Bai Hua rushed over quickly, snatched the money from her hand and stuffed it into his pocket, then launched into a tirade of abuse at Jiang Ruzhen.
"Jiang Ruzhen, you are shameless. You just agreed to sell to me at cost price, and then you told your brother that I took advantage of you."
I never realized you were such a treacherous person. What exactly do you mean? Are you happy to see your brother and me go bankrupt and starve?
You wicked, vile slut, you deserve to die a horrible death! You should have died with your short-lived husband...
"Bai Hua, what are you saying?" Jiang Zhengyu's face turned ashen when he saw his wife cursing his own sister like that.
Jiang Ruzhen's face was also very ugly. She did not expect that even though she had already let go of what her sister-in-law had done yesterday, she would still come to her and distort the truth and falsely accuse her.
"Bai Hua, get out of here while I'm still giving you face. Don't force me to take action!"
"I'm forcing you, Jiang Ruzhen! I think you're trying to force me to my death. You're trying to sow discord between my husband and me, and you're trying to make your older brother hate me so you can divorce me, right?"
I know you've made a fortune, but you look down on me. You think I, your poor relative, am a disgrace to you.
I only took a few of your clothes, why are you complaining to your older brother? Didn't I give you money? Did I take advantage of you?
You're just malicious. Did what I said yesterday offend you?
You want revenge on me? You want to kick me out of the Jiang family? Let me tell you, no way! You want me dead? Not so easy! I'll beat you to death today...
Bai Hua became more and more agitated as she spoke, because this morning Jiang Zhengyu had somehow gotten the news that she had embarrassed his younger sister in order to buy clothes for her family.
He berated her mercilessly and demanded that she give all the family's money to Jiang Ruzhen.
Her tantrums were to no avail, and Jiang Zhengyu actually blurted out that if she didn't return the money, he would divorce her.
Bai Hua was furious. She felt that Jiang Ruzhen was the one stirring up trouble. Since Jiang Ruzhen didn't want her to be happy, then no one should be happy.
Bai Hua charged forward, baring his teeth and claws, but Jiang Ruzhen blocked him from the left and right, grabbing Bai Hua's hair and dragging him forcefully.
Bai Hua screamed as she was being pulled, and Jiang Zhengyu's eyelids twitched. He came over and tried to hug Bai Hua and drag her home first.
Unexpectedly, Bai Hua struggled and raised his hand to hit Jiang Ruzhen. Jiang Ruzhen dodged to the side, and Bai Hua's big slap landed squarely on Jiang Zhengyu's face.
The sound was very loud, like a "snap".
Upon seeing this, Jiang Ruzhen felt a surge of anger rising within her.
Damn it! No one had ever dared to hit her family in front of her, so she swung her arm and slapped Bai Hua hard across the face.
"Bai Hua, I've put up with you for too long. But let me tell you, I won't put up with you anymore. Apologize to my older brother!"
"You hit me? You dare hit me? Jiang Ruzhen, I'll fight you to the death..."
Bai Hua was initially stunned after slapping her husband, but after being slapped back by Jiang Ruzhen, she immediately flew into a rage.
She charged forward like a cannonball and began to wrestle with Jiang Ruzhen, the two of them rolling around in a heap.
They kicked over all the chairs, bottles, and jars in the courtyard, shattering them on the ground.
"Stop! All of you, stop!" Jiang Nian'an couldn't stand it any longer and rushed out the door, shouting sternly.
But Bai Hua had already lost his mind and couldn't hear anything at all.
She vented all her jealousy and anger on Jiang Ruzhen. If she didn't suppress Jiang Ruzhen today, how could she stand in this family in the future?
Tian Rong wiped away her tears and pulled at Bai Hua, "Bai Hua, stop hitting us! We're all family, what are you doing?"
Although Jiang Ruzhen was angry, she couldn't do much because Tian Rong was around, and she was quickly at a disadvantage, with Bai Hua pulling her hair and scratching her several times.
Seeing her mother being taken advantage of, Shen Shuxin disregarded seniority and rushed forward to help Jiang Ruzhen pull Bai Hua's hair, even grabbing her arm to pull her in the opposite direction.
Jiang Ruzhen seized the opportunity and scratched Bai Hua's face a few times. Bai Hua had never suffered such a loss before. Back in the countryside, she had never been bullied like this. She screamed and struggled to break free with all her might.
Shen Shuxin was still young and inexperienced, and she couldn't withstand Bai Hua's attack. She was thrown away.
Even Tian Rong was affected by Bai Hua's struggle to break free, and his body fell uncontrollably to the side.
"mom--"
"Old woman—"
Jiang Nian'an and Jiang Zhengyu reacted and rushed over to help Tian Rong up, but Tian Rong remained unconscious, apparently having bumped into something.
"My God! Someone's been killed! Old Mrs. Tian has been beaten to death by her daughter-in-law!"
A neighbor's piercing scream completely woke Bai Hua from her madness. She stood there, staring blankly at her mother-in-law lying on the ground, feeling somewhat helpless.
"This...it wasn't me...I didn't use any force..."
Jiang Ruzhen quickly got up and rushed to her mother's side. Her hands trembled slightly as she touched Tian Rong's nose.
Thankfully, the air was still warm.
Jiang Ruzhen hurriedly took out a bottle of spiritual spring water from her bag and poured it down Tian Rong's throat.
Jiang Zhengyu helped his mother up and carried her on his back as they ran towards the hospital. The rest of the Jiang family followed, and they took two cars straight to the hospital.
Bai Hua stood there, watching as her neighbors' heads popped out of the upstairs windows, pointing and whispering at her. Only then did she begin to feel afraid.
She was so frightened that she turned around and ran home, telling Jiang Min about it.
Jiang Min still had some sense, and without saying a word, she grabbed Bai Hua and rushed to the hospital.
Throughout the journey, Jiang Ruzhen was consumed by regret, silently weeping as she held Tian Rong's hand.
She was afraid of this situation, and she had been very tolerant of Bai Hua because she was afraid that her parents would get anxious and upset. But today, when she saw her older brother being beaten, she really couldn't hold back her anger.
But she didn't expect that Bai Hua would even dare to hit her mother-in-law when she went crazy. She really underestimated Bai Hua's hatred for her.
If anything happens to her mother, she will never forgive herself.
Seemingly sensing her daughter's pain, Tian Rong moved her fingers and pinched Jiang Ruzhen.
Jiang Ruzhen was stunned for a moment, a hint of surprise showing in her eyes.
Is her mom faking it? But why?
Her eyes darted around, and she noticed the calm expression on her father's face. The old man must know the inside story too.
Looking at the sorrowful expression on my older brother's face, I realized that my parents were putting on a show for him.
Thinking about it more carefully, my parents really put a lot of thought into it.
They probably resorted to this drastic measure because they were afraid that the siblings would quarrel over this matter and affect their relationship.
Tian Rong did think that way, but more importantly, he wanted to use this as a warning to his eldest son to properly discipline the family members.
As the elder brother of the children in the family, how could he allow his wife and children to bully his own sister like this?
They're getting worse with each incident; they'll probably start defecating on the old couple's necks in the future.
Upon arrival at the hospital, after a thorough examination by the doctors, it was determined that the elderly woman was not seriously injured; she had only fainted due to a moment of emotional distress.
Jiang Zhengyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, knelt down in front of Tian Rong's bed with tears streaming down his face, and kept saying that he was useless.
The old lady raised her hand and touched the eldest son's head, her face full of kindness, saying that she didn't blame him.
Jiang Zhengyu felt even more guilty.
Jiang Nian'an and Jiang Ruzhen exchanged a glance and saw the suppressed smile in each other's eyes.
Just as this heartwarming moment of motherly love and filial piety was captured, a soft knock sounded on the ward door.
A trembling voice rang out, "Mom, are you feeling better?"
