"Hurry up and fetch a doctor." Tian Guifen's face was so dark it was almost dripping water.
From inside the outhouse came Tian Yexiang's weak roar: "No, it's too embarrassing."
"Isn't it shameful now? The Shen family's ancestral graves must have caught fire to have married a daughter-in-law like you?"
Unable to bear it any longer, Tian Guifen roared so loudly that the house seemed to tremble.
Shen Liuliu, who was about to burst into tears in the east wing because of her father's teasing, immediately held back!
Shen Erming: "Mother, don't be angry. I'll go find a doctor right now."
No matter what, people are the most important thing.
"Let Sanlin go, you stay at home."
Even though she was so angry, Tian Guifen thought that Erming would feel better if he was home at the time.
However, Tian Guifen was puzzled: "What did your wife eat? How did she get like this?"
Speaking of this, Shen Erming was also puzzled.
"Second son's wife, where have you been just now? What did you eat?"
"..."
Tian Yexiang dared not speak, so she simply pretended to be dead in the outhouse.
Even if their buttocks were burning from diarrhea, they didn't dare to utter a sound.
"She went to her parents' house again, didn't she?" Tian Guifen guessed immediately and sighed.
Suddenly, Shen Liuliu shouted from inside the room, "Medicine!"
It's a pity that the baby is only 100 days old, his development is not complete, and his physical condition is not good enough, so all he can make are unclear sounds.
Shen Wanli, however, was quite supportive, laughing loudly and shouting, "Hey, I'm telling you, our daughter can talk now, and she's shouting for things she doesn't know what she wants!"
"medicine!"
Shen Liuliu was so angry that she kicked her legs.
"Honey, what do you want?"
"medicine!"
Why don't you understand?
Tian Guifen, who had already entered the house, was speechless: "How come your daughter is talking? She's just making 'ah ah' noises all the time?"
Why can't she tell that she's asking for something?
It's clearly just a little baby making unconscious "uh-huh" and "ah-ah" sounds.
"My daughter will always shout 'I want it!' whenever she wants something!"
"What the hell do you want? You want...wait, medicine?"
Suddenly remembering something, Tian Guifen hurriedly ran to the yard and shouted towards the outhouse, "You spendthrift woman, did you go back to your parents' house to drink your medicine again?"
"The last time I went to pick her up, my mother-in-law said she bought some medicine and asked me to pay for it! I refused!"
Shen Erming immediately said.
Tian Guifen slapped her thigh and cursed, "That woman must have secretly gone home and drunk it! You hurry up and go to your mother-in-law's house right now to see if you can find any dregs or anything! Then you can have a doctor take a look!"
If there really is a problem, at least it will put the second son's wife at ease!
And then there's Madam Tian! So how much money did she get from her second son?
This time, she's going to make that old woman vomit it all up!
Shen Erming immediately took off running!
Inside the house, seeing that her mother was so clever and understood her meaning, Shen Liuliu immediately yawned and hummed to herself until she fell asleep.
——
"Please take care, doctor. Thank you for your help."
"It's no trouble to pay. It's 120 coins in total. Please pay me."
Shen Erming awkwardly tugged at the hem of his clothes and said to Tian Guifen, "Mother, I... I have no money left."
In front of outsiders, Tian Guifen did not make things difficult for her son. She gave him the money directly and happily saw the doctor off.
Upon returning, he chased everyone else out and asked with a livid face, "Where is the one tael of silver I gave you?"
They made so much money selling wild animals.
Since her eldest and second sons were both married, Tian Guifen gave each of them one tael of silver!
That's a tael of silver!
How could it be all gone now?
"...I bought Ah Xiang a silver hairpin, which cost half a tael of silver. The remaining half tael of silver...Ah Xiang said she would give it to her family, and then her mother would come next year to give her half a tael of silver as a wedding gift..."
After saying that, Shen Erming lowered his head, waiting to be scolded.
"How could you even think of that! Second son's wife, I've told you so many times, but you didn't believe me, did you? Now the doctor has said that there was croton in the medicine your mother gave you, do you believe that now?"
"How was I supposed to know my mom would lie to me? So much money! Waaah..."
Tian Yexiang even started crying in grievance.
It was a double blow to both the body and the mind.
Tired of listening to her second son's wife's wailing, Tian Guifen simply called her second son over and left!
Before leaving, Tian Guifen took out half of the packet of dregs that she had snatched back from the Tian family.
"Mother, what are you doing with this?"
You'll find out then.
The mother and daughter left stealthily.
There was no other way; I really didn't want to face the villagers' mocking gazes!
-
The Tian family.
"Is there something wrong with the medicine you bought for your daughter? Huh? Don't play dead, I'm asking you a question!"
From a great distance, one could hear Tanaka Kei's furious shouts.
Madam Tian defended herself in a low voice: "Why are you being so fierce? I'm just trying to get her pregnant sooner. Don't you know what kind of life your daughter is living in her in-laws' house because she can't get pregnant? That old hag Tian Guifen..."
"Bang!"
Enraged, Shen Erming smashed the Tian family's dilapidated gate to pieces!
Tian Guifen looked at the Tian couple who came out after hearing the noise, and waved the thing in her hand with a cold smile, saying, "Do you want to talk about the medicine you bought for your daughter outside or inside?"
"in!"
Tian Niangzi spoke without hesitation, then realized she had been a bit deliberate, and quickly explained, "People are already talking about it, let's talk about it inside the house."
Tian Niangzi's guilty conscience only fueled further suspicion!
Tian Guifen was even more convinced that this old woman had done something wrong!
Once inside the house, Tian Guifen threw the dregs of the medicine onto the table, sat down on the kang (heated brick bed), and acted as if she were back in her own home.
She said to the anxious Mrs. Tian, "You know perfectly well how much profit you made from your daughter on this medicine. I'm here today to settle the score with you!"
Tian Guifen slammed her hand on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), her voice ringing out: "Give me back all the profit you made! Otherwise, I'll report you to the authorities! Your medicine contained croton seeds, causing your daughter's incessant diarrhea!"
The sparrows outside cheered loudly, and the crickets chirped along with them!
Well done!
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't make any profit!" Tian Niangzi immediately denied.
Without wasting words, Tian Guifen stood up, grabbed the dregs of the medicine, and was about to leave: "You don't admit it? Fine, then I'll report it to the authorities and let them investigate!"
After saying that, he walked straight out!
Shen Erming followed his mother like a door god!
"Oh no!" Lady Tian panicked.
Seeing Tian Niangzi's expression, Tanaka Kei immediately understood what was going on and slapped her across the face!
"That's your own daughter! Are you even human? Give me back all the money you've embezzled!"
Tian Niangzi covered her face and wailed, "I've had such a hard life, I..."
"If you cry any louder, and all the neighbors know what you've done, I'd like to see which family will dare to marry their daughter to your son!"
Tian Guifen sneered and threatened, "I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense. For Erming's sake, it's ten taels of silver! Pay up quickly, and we'll call it even. If you're short a single coin, I'll immediately take you to the authorities!"
They want to steal the Shen family's money?
Even if you eat it, I'll make you poop it out, lick it clean, and give it back to me!
