"You don't look like a fairy, and you still want to marry someone from the city?" Zhao Hongying couldn't blame her for complaining. Her daughter looked exactly like her, with her bulbous nose and thick lips. Even with that, she still wanted to marry someone from the city? Even a crippled man or a second marriage in the city wouldn't necessarily marry someone like her. After spending some time in the city, how could she just be daydreaming? If she were even a third as pretty as Li Qingge and Su Wanruo, she would have considered marrying her off well.
Some things should be handled according to the actual situation. "Su Wanruo told you that she would find you a man from the city to marry, but now she's in jail! How can she introduce you to someone? Meili, you have to face reality now. It's hard to say whether you can find an unmarried man after the news exposure. Don't set your sights on the sky!"
"Mom, to put it bluntly, you're biased. You know Ma Hai didn't do anything to me, so why do you want to belittle me? My brother is a second marriage, so why did you find him a first marriage? And she has to be excellent?"
"Your brother's face is one of the most handsome in our whole village!" She has a pair of children, one looks like their father and the other like their mother. If they both look like Lao Xu, she won't be so upset!
"What? Do you really want to find a divorced woman for Meili?" Xu Guoyong looked at her with a frown on his face, which was simply nonsense.
"Of course I will try my best to find a good one for my daughter. If I really can't find one, then she can't stay at home as an old maid! Our family is too poor now. It's better for her to marry into a husband's family and enjoy a better life."
Zhao Hongying sighed, "Meili, you should be down-to-earth. Don't worry about marriage."
Xu Meili was unwilling to accept this. Li Qingge was a second-married woman, and the men she found were all so outstanding. Why couldn't she do the same?
To put it another way, her parents just don't love her.
Trying every possible way to drive her out and squeeze out every last bit of value from her.
Xu Meili's eyes quickly filled with tears. Her life was so miserable.
"Cry, cry out all the grievances in your heart, and get married happily!"
Zhao Hongying will ask a matchmaker to arrange the marriage tomorrow and get it done as soon as possible.
Xu Guoyong looked miserable and was speechless.
"Li Qingge! Li Qingge!" Suddenly, Xu Changan, who was originally unconscious with a high fever in the room, suddenly shouted loudly!
The three people guarding the outer room hurried in.
Xu Changan closed his eyes and shouted, "Li Qingge!"
"Chang'an, son, what's wrong?" Zhao Hongying was frightened.
"Hysterical!" Xu Guoyong quickly stepped forward to hold his arm. Noticing that he was beginning to twitch, he urgently ordered, "Quick! Find a stick, quick!"
Xu Meili didn't understand what the wooden stick her father was talking about was for, so she searched aimlessly in the yard and picked up a stick as thick as her wrist and took it.
Xu Guoyong said with disdain, "Can't you find a pair of chopsticks or something? Can you bite such a thick stick? Forget it."
It was too late now, so Xu Guoyong simply stretched out his finger, but Xu Changan bit his finger tightly, "..."
Clack, the sound of teeth biting finger bones could be clearly heard, and Xu Guoyong's face turned pale with pain.
"Dad, my fingers, no!" Xu Meili was dumbfounded. He would bite his fingers off! How could her father bear the pain of biting his fingers and heart?
"Chang'an! Chang'an!" Xu Guoyong noticed that the pain in his fingers was slowly disappearing. In fact, it had become numb at this moment. Xu Chang'an was fine.
It is a convulsion caused by high fever.
Xu Guoyong's fingers were bleeding and the teeth marks on them were very scary.
"Lao Xu, what should we do? The fever seems to be worse than yesterday! The antipyretics are of no use!" Zhao Hongying said anxiously.
"We have to go to the hospital," Xu Guoyong took a breath, "Let's send someone to the hospital now." If we don't send him to the hospital, he will die.
"I have no money," Zhao Hongying cried helplessly. She was discharged from the hospital just because she had no money. Who would be discharged if they had money?
"I'll go and borrow the money. You guys send him to the hospital first, and I'll go and borrow the money." Even if he had to kneel down, he had to lend the money. He couldn't just watch his son die.
Xu Guoyong raised his foot and left.
Zhao Hongying wiped her tears and ordered Xu Meili, "Hurry up and go to your uncle's house to harness the bullock cart. Let's take your brother to the hospital."
"Oh, okay." Xu Meili turned around and ran to borrow an ox cart.
Zhao Hongying tried to pull her son up from the bed, but failed after several attempts. He was too heavy!
Helpless, they could only wait for Meili to come back and the two of them carried the person up.
Zhao Hongying felt helpless and scared at the moment. If something really happened to her son, she would not want to live anymore!
After struggling to lift the man onto the ox cart, the two of them hurried to the hospital again.
When they were almost at the entrance of the village, they happened to see three cars that Li Qingge was engaged to drive towards the county.
"Bah!" I really don't know how a second-married man can be so brazen! He's not ashamed.
The car suddenly stopped, and Zhao Hongying, driving the ox cart, also stopped. She looked over in confusion. What was she trying to do?
They thought Li Qingge had run into them and came down to ask them if they needed money.
Unexpectedly, the person who came down was not Li Qingge, but Li Jianping and Zhang Xiulan.
The two of them carried a bag of candy and gave it to the villagers who were sitting at the entrance of the village watching the fun.
"Everyone, eat candy."
"Xiu Lan, your daughter is so lucky to have found such a rich city boyfriend."
"Qingge is a very beautiful girl in the surrounding villages. She will definitely find a good one."
"Congratulations!"
Zhang Xiu Lan shared all the candies with everyone. These days, every household is reluctant to buy candies during the Chinese New Year.
Look at what Zhang Xiulan and the others gave, wow, it’s still milk candy!
Afterwards, the two men seemed not to notice Zhao Hongying and Xu Meili behind the car, and got in and left.
Only choking dust remains.
"..." Zhao Hongying gritted her teeth. She dared to say that Zhang Xiulan must have done it on purpose!
"Hey? Hongying, what happened to your Lao Xu?"
The few people who were happy just now noticed Zhao Hongying and her daughter, and they all stretched their necks to look at the ox cart.
How does the saying go? It really is true that fortunes change.
For Li Qingge, getting engaged today is a great joyous occasion.
Their Xu Changan was seriously injured.
Tsk tsk.
It's a bit miserable.
But you deserve it!
"Look at that look on your face. The person lying in the car is definitely not their Lao Xu. I just saw their Lao Xu rushing out the door!"
As he spoke, he asked, "Is it Chang'an?"
Zhao Hongying ignored them. The most important thing now was to rush her son to the hospital.
"Haha, that's what the old folks always say, good goes around and evil goes around. You were begging for a divorce from Qingge back then, and it's only been a short while! You're dumbfounded, right?"
"That's right, the most important thing for a human being is to have a conscience. If you don't even have a conscience, what's the difference between you and an animal!"
"Didn't he bully the village in the beginning because he relied on his son's military service? Why isn't he so powerful now?"
"What cadre?! Qingge's boyfriend is a cadre. I heard he's a regimental commander. His grandfather was a former commander, and he and Old Li were comrades-in-arms!"
