Chapter 71 Stomach Pain
Wu Meihua retorted, "Why don't you believe me? How could I lie to you? That girl caught her own mother having an affair! How many people can do that? Most importantly, she even opened the door for the people inside to see."
"If I had a daughter like this, I would have strangled her to death at birth!"
"I don't like what you say. Hurry up and make the dumplings. It's a rare chance to eat them, and you shut your mouth!"
"And they're having mutton tonight, why don't you starve them to death? I haven't had mutton for a long time. Send next month's salary back early, and I'll buy two mutton bones so we can make mutton soup."
"Okay, I get it, let's get to work!"
After receiving the affirmation, Wu Meihua turned around and continued to work, humming a song she had just learned recently, feeling happy in her heart.
Old Li put the washed vegetables into the basin. Thinking that such a pretty girl had now become a housewife, he felt sorry for her. It was really unpredictable. He was destined not to be able to pick Su Jinxia, this wild flower.
…
village.
A group of people came back in a rage, each with a gloomier look than the last.
Seeing them return empty-handed, Gu Yan knew that things were not going well. It was almost dark outside. She first went back to the house to look for her man.
"Dadong, go ask mom for the key. I need to get some food to cook."
"Rub my chest for me." Xiao Dadong felt his chest was blocked and he forced himself to walk back. Now every breath he took was uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yan only then noticed that her husband's face was pale. She quickly sat over and rubbed his chest. Listening to his violent coughing, she became anxious.
"What happened to the boss?"
"My stomach hurts. I feel like I can't breathe after being kicked. Please rub it for me."
"What happened? Who kicked you?" Gu Yan became even more anxious after hearing this. The movements of her hands were gentler than before. Seeing the man's face becoming more and more ugly, she became more and more anxious in her heart.
"It was Su Jinxia who kicked me. I didn't expect that girl was so strong. She almost made me faint!" Xiao Dadong looked at his wife and suddenly felt very wronged.
As the eldest, he has to take the lead in everything, otherwise he would be unfilial. Thinking of what Su Jinxia said, he admired her in his heart that his niece could break free from the shackles of the world and fight against the so-called filial piety!
But he, as a man, can't!
"How is this possible? She is so thin and you are so tall and strong, how could she kick you down!" Gu Yan did not believe what the man said. "Tell me the truth, what happened? Who hit you?"
"It was really Xia Xia who beat me up. Not only was I injured, but the three of them were injured as well. It's just that their injuries were less severe, while I was kicked in the stomach. Now I feel like my stomach is burning, as if it's on fire." After Xiao Dadong said this, he started coughing violently again.
Seeing the man in such pain, Gu Yan made a prompt decision.
"No, we have to go find our mom and ask her to give you money to go to the hospital. You are coughing so badly, you must be hurt."
"You don't have to lie down all night." Xiao Dadong knew that going to the hospital would cost a lot of money, and his family didn't have much money, so he didn't want to cause trouble.
"Just listen to me. We can't let this matter go like this." Gu Yan pushed away the man's blocking hand and walked out of the door, going straight to the main house.
When I entered the room, I saw my sister-in-law crying again, my father-in-law was sitting on the kang smoking a pipe, and my mother-in-law was sitting in the corner with her head down.
"Mom, Dadong's condition is not good. I need money to send him to the hospital."
"What happened? Wasn't he fine on the way back?" Xiao Guoqiang put down his cigarette stick. "When I passed by the hospital, I asked a few of them, but they all shook their heads and said they didn't want to go to the hospital. How come he felt unwell when he got home?"
"Dad, you know how tolerant Dadong is. If he says it's not good, then it means it's really not good." Gu Yan looked at them and begged.
Xiao Guoqiang took a deep breath and weighed the pros and cons in his mind. If his son was just a child of a few years old, then he would be gone. But now he is a strong laborer, who would do the work in the future if he died?
So he looked up at the old woman and said, "Give Yanzi some money and let her take the eldest son to the hospital!"
"Money, money, money, where do I get the money? They're all debt collectors, asking me for money!" Zhu Xiuzhen yelled, "Go boil some hot water for him and let him drink it. He had a stomachache when he was a kid, and he drank it like that."
"Mom, he's in so much pain, drinking hot water won't help. What if something happens?" Gu Yan started crying anxiously.
Xiao Yuanshan came in from outside and saw his mother crying, so he immediately went over to ask
"What's wrong?"
"Xiaoshan, your dad is not well and needs to go to the hospital. I'm asking your grandma for money!"
Xiao Yuanshan immediately thought of the scene during the day, so he hurriedly told his grandmother,
"Grandma gave us money."
"Humph, they are all debt collectors!" Zhu Xiuzhen took out a handkerchief from her pocket, then took out a piece of money from it and threw it on the kang.
"Here's the money."
Gu Yan knew her mother-in-law was greedy for money, but she didn't expect her to be so greedy.
"Mom, you should at least give me 5 dollars. This dollar is not enough to go to the hospital!"
"I don't have much, and you don't know the situation in our family. Go and see what's going on first, and then tell me how much you want." Zhu Xiuzhen clenched her fists tightly, fearing that the money in her hands would be snatched away.
Xiao Yuanshan turned around, "Grandpa, what do you say!"
"Just listen to your grandmother."
"What can you do with one dollar? Like my mom said, at least give me five dollars."
Xiao Guoqiang thought that if the 5 yuan could cure his eldest son, he turned to the old woman and said,
"Give me five bucks!"
"You only know how to ask for money." Zhu Xiuzhen had no choice but to take out a few more pieces and throw them on the kang. "Hurry up and get out of here with your money. You don't have the ability to make money, but you just want to spend it!"
Xiao Yuanshan really didn't want to pick up the money on the kang, but he had to take it, so he picked up the money with gritted teeth, then turned around and pulled his mother out.
When I returned to the house, I saw that the person had closed his eyes and his face was pale.
Gu Yan immediately climbed onto the kang and leaned close to his ear.
"Dadong!"
Xiao Dadong slowly opened his eyes, "What's wrong?"
"Let's go to the hospital." Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the person had woken up.
Xiao Yuanshan, "Mom, I'll go out and push the cart out, and you help my dad out."
"Ah!" Gu Yan wiped her tears with her hands. If this man died, her world would fall. She still had to explain to the two children later, so she went back to sleep after dinner.
In the house.
Xiao Ying thought about it and came up with an idea, "Mom, that damn girl is responsible for my brother's injury. Ask her for some money."
"That makes sense. What do you think, old man?" Zhu Xiuzhen thought about the few dollars she had just taken out, as if it was cutting the flesh from her thigh.
