Chapter 151: All We Can Do Is Worry
Chen Jianye immediately gritted his teeth and remained silent; he had no right to do so.
Seeing his pale and pained face, Li Chunhua felt heartbroken and anxious, but she dared not utter another sound to displease her father-in-law. She could only glare at Helian Jiao resentfully for a while.
It's all that brat's fault, she made her man get beaten so badly!
It must have been that brat who courted death and provoked that big bear!
Otherwise, with so many people around, why did the big bear only attack her?!
After all, if a bear wanted to eat a person, it would choose the biggest one!
But no matter how anxious she was, it was no use. Chen Jianye was still hit twenty times, and Chen Dazhu used all his strength in each blow.
After the beating, Chen Jianye collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, half-dead.
Of course, she won't die, she'll just suffer.
Ma Xiulian finally calmed down, but still glared at him with resentment, gritting her teeth and cursing, "Even animals know to protect their cubs! You, a grown man, are worse than an animal! I've never given birth to a coward like you who only cares about saving his own life and lets his own daughter get eaten by a bear!"
Upon hearing this, Helian Jiao said in a tender voice, "Grandma, the bear wouldn't dare eat me."
She was a little annoyed; why did everyone think she was going to be eaten by a bear?
Looking at her innocent and childlike face, Ma Xiulian's eyes welled up with tears again. "That's right! My darling is a fairy from heaven, a bear wouldn't dare to eat her!"
Fortunately, her precious baby was born of a fairy, and was blessed by God.
Thinking of this, her heart, which had been filled with lingering fear, finally calmed down, but she was still angry that her three sons had left her precious baby alone in front of the bear.
Chen Jianye, who was being called worse than an animal, felt a deep sense of regret and guilt upon hearing his little girl's tender, childlike voice. He was too ashamed to utter a single word in his defense.
Chen Jianguo and Chen Jiandang felt extremely guilty, after all, their little niece was only four years old.
Just then, Ma Xiulian's sharp gaze shot towards them: "And you two! You're supposed to be the uncle who watched our precious son grow up, and there were three grown men with sticks in their hands, yet a bear scared you so much you ran away with your tails between your legs! You're all useless good-for-nothings, you've completely disgraced the Chen family!!"
The three Chen brothers felt even more ashamed, realizing they had disgraced the Chen family, after all, their mother was a fierce woman who could single-handedly take down a wild boar.
Seeing the three brothers hanging their heads and silently being scolded, Zhou Zhaodi was speechless. They were really three blockheads!
Since you know you're wrong, quickly admit it and try to appease your angry mother-in-law.
Li Chunhua rolled her eyes inwardly. Her mother-in-law could talk so easily, but when it really happened, she would only think about running away.
After all, that was a man-eating bear. It was good enough that it managed to escape on its own. Who would care about a worthless little girl?
Only Zhao Mei was the most honest. She really felt sorry for her husband and couldn't help but plead, "Dad, Mom, Jianguo and his two younger brothers must know they were wrong. You've already scolded and hit them. Why don't you let them apply the medicine first?"
Besides, they've just come back from the mountain, so they must be starving. Even if they want to curse, they should eat first, right?
Of course, she knew she couldn't say that directly, so she could only feel anxious.
Ma Xiulian gave her a cold look without saying a word, but it scared Zhao Mei so much that she shut her mouth tightly like a quail.
