Chapter 217 217 A Cultured Old Lady
Once Old Mrs. Qin opened her mouth, she not only dragged out all eighteen generations of the Su family ancestors and greeted them one by one, but also the next three generations. In the next hundred years, every person with the surname Su was mentioned in Old Mrs. Qin's mouth.
The courtyard was silent, and everyone stared blankly as Old Mrs. Qin cursed until more than ten minutes later, when she took a sip of water. Only then did they come to their senses.
Everyone immediately wiped their sweat in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized and quite a sight to behold.
That was terrifying, but it's finally over.
When it comes to who's best at cursing, Grandma Qin is number one.
From now on, the person you absolutely cannot mess with in Qinjiagou has changed; the old lady of the Qin family has taken the top spot.
Although Grandpa Su and Grandma Su were scolded, they were unusually obedient. They placed their hands under their stomachs and nervously rubbed them incessantly, glancing at Grandma Qin repeatedly. They wanted to say something, but they didn't dare to utter a single word.
There was nothing they could do; Old Madam Qin's mental pressure was too strong, and they dared not do anything but obediently listen to her scolding.
The Su family members had already gotten up from the ground and were standing in the courtyard, looking at the Qin family elders with strange eyes.
What should they do next? It's obviously impossible to get the house back. With Old Mrs. Qin around, who would dare to bring it up again?
Need money for hospital treatment? That seems like a possibility!
Just as everyone was thinking this, Old Mrs. Qin opened her mouth again.
"You've driven my little one to this point, she's on the verge of death, and you don't even think about how to resolve this?"
Grandpa Su immediately stepped forward and said in a low voice, "We will definitely resolve this. It was our fault that our eldest granddaughter suffered this time. Our Su family will definitely cooperate fully to resolve this issue."
Grandma Qin lifted her eyelids slightly and glanced indifferently at Grandpa Su. "Then tell me, how do you plan to resolve this?"
Grandpa Su was very shrewd. He immediately pointed to Su the eldest, Su the second, and Su the third and said, "You guys, each of you should take out ten yuan to pay for Xiao Xiao's medical treatment. If it's not enough, you can make up the difference later."
Grandma Qin nodded in satisfaction, "Let's leave it at that for now."
After saying that, Old Mrs. Qin turned around and tried to leave.
My eldest granddaughter went to the hospital. If I weren't in such a hurry to avenge her, I wouldn't have time to be with these idiots. I still have to go to the hospital to see my granddaughter!
"What? You want money? I don't agree."
"No, why should we give her money? She's the one who hit us."
"You've beaten us up like this and you still want money? No way!"
"That's right, we can't give them the money, we're still injured."
"I'm in pain all over, I need to go to the hospital to see a doctor."
...
When the families heard that each household had to contribute ten yuan for Qin Xiaoxiao's medical treatment, they were all furious and no one was willing to do so.
When the family divided the property, none of the members received any money. Now the family has almost no money. If they were to give Qin Xiaoxiao another ten yuan, how could they possibly make a living?
When the whole family objected, Old Master Su's face immediately turned cold. "What? Do you think my words don't count? I'm not dead yet!"
Just because we've separated from the family doesn't mean you don't have to listen to me anymore? Just because we've separated from the family means you can do whatever you want?
You did something wrong, and they gave you a way out, but you still can't accept it? What do you want? To go to jail?
Grandma Qin lifted her eyelids and looked at Grandpa Su and Grandma Su. "To teach others, one must first understand oneself; to educate others, one must first establish virtue. If parents are unwilling to admit their own mistakes, how can they teach their children well?"
The patriarchs of each branch of the Su family disagreed with contributing money, and the younger generations naturally followed suit.
Before marrying Qin Aiguo, Old Mrs. Qin had some education, but only to the point of being able to read and write. Logically speaking, she shouldn't have been able to articulate such profound truths. However, since she married Qin Aiguo, who loved learning, she had memorized a few good sentences she had heard from her husband, and now she was putting them to use.
The people of Qinjiagou who were watching the commotion outside the courtyard were once again shocked by Old Mrs. Qin.
When did Old Mrs. Qin become so knowledgeable? Why do she speak so eloquently?
She's right. If even parents can't do it, how can they expect their juniors to take the money? Are you kidding me?
Grandpa Su and Grandma Su looked ashamed. "Sister-in-law, we didn't raise our child well. We're sorry for what happened today."
The Su family was furious again.
The fact that Old Master Su apologized is equivalent to the entire Su family admitting their mistake. They were the ones who were beaten, yet they are being asked to apologize. Where can we find justice?
Grandma Qin didn't care what the Su family thought. She snorted and slammed the stick in her hand hard on the ground. "I don't care how you manage the household. I just want my granddaughter to be alright."
Brother Su, you should handle your own affairs. I shouldn't get involved. But if it were me today, haha, what's the point of keeping someone who doesn't listen? How can you expect them to support you in your old age?
I'll slap you hard across the face. You're not happy? Go ahead and hit me back!
"Haha, what a family of idiots! And you, the father, aren't much smarter either, unable to even control your own son. You've lived this long for nothing."
Even after being scolded, Grandpa Su didn't dare to refute, didn't you see his brother glaring at him angrily?
Grandma Qin rolled her eyes at Grandpa Su and, supported by Ma Dahua, walked out of the Su family courtyard.
When they got outside the courtyard, seeing her eldest son standing blankly at the door, Old Mrs. Qin got angry again, "What are you still standing here for? Hurry up and ride to the hospital to get checked out!"
"Take more money home. What can those idiots in the Su family do with so little money? We have to pay for it."
After saying that, Grandma Qin slapped her thigh and started crying again, "My poor Xiaoxiao, why are you so unlucky! I thought that after you went home, you would have your grandma to protect you and your life would be good, but who would have thought that you would fall for such a scoundrel!"
Grandma Qin walked home crying, and Qin Aiguo followed closely behind his wife, not daring to get too close to her for fear of being implicated.
The one who could vent his wife's anger was currently arguing with the Su brothers. There was no one else around, and if his wife's anger hadn't subsided, he would be the first to be targeted.
There was nothing she could do. She couldn't bear to scold her son, and she couldn't scold her daughter-in-law. Besides him, who was disliked, who else could the old woman scold?
Qin Aiguo had walked more than twenty meters when he couldn't help but look back in the direction of the Su family's house.
You're so useless!
A bunch of idiots!
If you can't even help my wife relieve her pent-up anger, what's the point of you being alive?
After the Qin couple left, the Su family got into a huge argument, which gave the old man and woman Su a terrible headache. Finally, the old man got so angry that he did what the old woman had left behind and slapped each of his three sons hard across the face. Only then did the noise in the courtyard quiet down.
“Go back and get your money, all of you. Don’t say you don’t have any. If you don’t have any, go borrow some. Make sure you don’t miss out on the small amount of money, or I’ll kill you all.”
Grandpa Su was furious. This was the first time the Su family had ever seen their father (grandfather) so tough. But they didn't want to actually spend money, so before Grandpa Su could say anything more, everyone scattered and went back to their own rooms.
