Chapter 345: Setting up a place for women to seek justice
It was said that even if Qian survived, she would be in a coma, so Qian's father didn't even let a doctor bandage her wounds.
After dropping the person off at Cao's house, Qian's father immediately took them away.
Qian's mother couldn't help crying: "What if Cao Wu is also heartless and doesn't care about his daughter?"
"If he dares not do anything and someone dies in the Cao family, we can just come and cause trouble and ask him to pay compensation!"
When Mr. Qian said this, the two sons' eyes suddenly lit up.
Yes, anyway, my little sister has become like this, and death will be a relief. They can also take the opportunity to ask Cao Wu for more money, which is not a loss.
Of course Cao Wu would not ignore the Qian family.
Qian's injuries looked serious. Cao Wu took out all the spare money he had and was about to take Qian to the clinic for treatment. Wang Shi stopped him and said, "She's so badly injured. What if she becomes paralyzed or stupid? The Qian family won't recognize you as their son-in-law anymore. She's going to remarry with her son. Why are you still spending money to save her?"
The Qian family acted very ruthlessly this time. Wang was also dissatisfied with Qian as her daughter-in-law and did not want Cao Wu to spend this money in vain.
Cao Wu glared at Wang: "Mother, even if she and I are no longer husband and wife, she is still a living person. I can't just stand by and watch her die!"
After saying this, Cao Wu walked out of the door despite Wang's obstruction.
Just as he pushed the cart to the entrance of the alley, he saw a carriage parked outside. The curtain was lifted, revealing Chunxi's face: "Brother, get in the carriage. I'll take you and sister-in-law to the clinic."
Wang originally wanted to chase Cao Wu, but when she saw Chunxi, she retreated silently.
The group went to Huichun Hall, and the doctor immediately cleaned Qian's wound, stopped the bleeding, and bandaged it.
Chunxi recounted what had happened tonight. Cao Wu was so angry that he pounded the wall: "The Qian family is really going too far. This is their own daughter. How could they force her to marry Li the Butcher?"
Qian has always been timid, with no temper or opinions. But this time, in order to leave the Qian family, she dared to hit her head against the wall. Cao Wu no longer had any anger left but heartache.
In fact, it was not entirely Qian's fault that things had come to this point. It was because he was unable to make money to provide his family with a good life before, so Qian had to go to the Taifu Mansion to be a wet nurse for ten taels of silver. It was also because after he had a child, he paid too little attention to Qian and failed to discover in time that Qian had listened to the instigation and developed resentment towards Ah Xi.
He knew that his father-in-law's family was unreasonable, but he still let Qian take the child back to her parents' home in anger, where they would be bullied by her family. In the end, he did nothing and only let Qian and the child suffer.
Guilt surged in his heart, and Cao Wu couldn't help but shed tears.
Chunxi didn't comfort him, but only said: "Sister-in-law is seriously injured and may be paralyzed in bed for the rest of her life. The Qian family has already written a divorce document to you, brother. Are you still willing to take care of her for the rest of her life?"
"Of course I am willing," Cao Wu said without hesitation, "Whether she is paralyzed or stupid, I will support her for the rest of her life!"
As soon as Cao Wu finished speaking, Qian's choked voice came: "Brother Wu,"
Cao Wu turned around suddenly and saw Qian standing there with her head wrapped in gauze and her face pale. He rushed over to support her and said, "Why are you up? You are so badly injured. Go lie down and rest well. Don't worry about the medicine. I will find a way. And Zheng'er, I will go to the Qian family to get him back."
As he spoke, Cao Wu half pushed and half hugged Qian back to her room.
Lying back on the bed, Qian burst into tears.
She was still conscious after hitting the wall, but she couldn't open her mouth or speak.
She heard the complaints of her parents, brother and sister-in-law, and felt the blood draining out of her body and her life fading away.
She didn't expect that her father was unwilling to even bandage her wounds and abandoned her at the Cao family like a rag. She also didn't expect that Brother Wu was willing to use all his money to save her after hearing that she would be paralyzed in bed for the rest of her life.
She had always thought that no matter how bad her parents treated her, they had raised her for so many years and would not harm her. Although Brother Wu was very good to her, he was still not as close to her as her parents.
After what happened today, she finally understood that it would be good for her parents to have a brother and sister-in-law. She had been an outsider since the day she got married, and only Zheng'er and Wu Ge were her lifelong support.
"Brother Wu, I'm sorry..."
Qian kept admitting her mistakes and apologizing. She was still very weak and soon fell asleep again.
Cao Wu watched her for a while with red eyes before leaving the room. Before he could ask, Chunxi said, "Sister-in-law's injury is not that serious. I bribed the doctor to deliberately say that Sister-in-law would be paralyzed. This way, Sister-in-law can see clearly who is the one who truly treats her well."
Cao Wu breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Chunxi tightly: "Axi, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for your help, this family would really be broken up."
This time, Cao Wu was determined to save face in front of the Qian family, but when he saw Qian injured like this, he realized that his fight for face was really stupid.
He failed to protect his wife and children, so what's the point of saving face?
Chunxi sighed, and waited until Cao Wu calmed down before saying, "Sister-in-law has returned to Big Brother, but for the time being, we can't let the Qian family know that Sister-in-law is getting better. Big Brother, please don't go to the shop for the next few days. Focus on taking care of Sister-in-law at home with Mother. In a few days, the Qian family will send Zheng'er back."
Cao Wu believed Chunxi's words without a doubt. He wanted to thank her, but Chunxi said calmly, "Brother, you don't have to thank me. We are siblings, and it's only natural for us to help each other. But I can only help you this once. After your sister-in-law recovers from her injury, she will have to go out again. The Qian family will definitely come and make trouble again. Brother, you have to think about how to protect your sister-in-law and Zheng'er without being manipulated by the Qian family."
Cao Wu nodded heavily: "I understand what Ah Xi means. Your sister-in-law and I will definitely be a united couple from now on. We will never lose our temper easily and let others take advantage of us again."
Chunxi had people spread the news that Li the Butcher was inhumane throughout the area, and also hired the families of his two ex-wives to cause trouble at the pork shop. The pork shop's business plummeted. Li the Butcher thought that Qian was unlucky for him, so he ran to the Qian family and made a big fuss. Not only did he ask for the betrothal gift back, he also beat up the Qian father and son.
Only when the fist landed on them did the Qian family father and son realize how terrifying Li the Butcher was.
The news that the Qian family sold their daughter also spread in the village, and even alarmed the owner of the village. Qian's father was afraid of losing his job, so he hurriedly sent Zheng'er back to the Cao family.
It was New Year's Eve when Chunxi received the news.
Another year has passed, and she not only has Shen Qingyuan by her side, but also An An and Ning'er.
The previous battle of Wengzhou consumed a lot of financial and material resources, and the celebration banquet was grand. This year's palace banquet was simple. Shen Qingyuan did not need to go to the palace to attend the palace banquet, and he accompanied Chunxi to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.
Hearing about the Cao family, Shen Qingyuan couldn't help but praise them: "Madam, you first helped Miss Feng to redress her injustice, and then helped your own sister-in-law escape from suffering. You are more like a righteous judge who redresses grievances for the people than I am."
"Are you serious, my husband?" Chunxi raised an eyebrow, a hint of pride in her eyes. "Then what do you think, my husband? The princess, He'er, and I should set up a place dedicated to redressing grievances for women?"
