Grandma Qi said loudly, "I'm telling the truth. You just don't want to believe it. Your son has always been sickly. Now that he's dying, you want to pin this on my family. Do you want my daughter to be a widow for your son? Let me tell you, no way."
Qin Hui had three good friends. Old Mrs. Qi also had several old sisters. And the Ouyang family were outsiders.
As soon as Grandma Qi finished speaking, Grandma Liu chimed in, "That's right. I think you just want to keep Xiuxiu tied to your house to serve you and your old man."
Grandma An: "I think so too. If her son were gone, all that would be left in their family would be her and her old man. If they didn't cling to Xiuxiu, those two old folks might not even be able to get a sip of hot water in the future."
Grandma Qiao looked at Grandma Yangyang and said, "The Ou family should be kind and honest."
Grandma Liu: "That's right. Your son's health has always been poor. Everyone knows that."
Grandma An said, "If you ask me, Xiuxiu shouldn't have married her son in the first place."
Grandma Qiao: "Ou family, you can't frame your in-laws just to keep Xiuxiu in your family."
Grandma Yangyang was so angry she could barely speak. "You...you...I didn't mean to keep Xiuxiu tied to our house. I just wanted to ask her what she was feeding my son?"
Old Mrs. Qi: "What can I feed your son? You just want to pin your son's problems on my family. That way, my family will have to take care of you two old folks in your old age and see you off when you die."
Grandma Yangyang: "You...you..."
Grandma Qi: "My Xiuxiu will not make your son a widow. Our family will not take care of you two old people in your old age or see you off when you die."
Yangyang pushed through the crowd and walked to his grandmother's side, saying loudly, "My grandparents have a grandson, so they don't need you to take care of them in their old age."
Everyone looked towards Yangyang.
Grandma Qi took two steps back guiltily.
Grandma Yangyang quickly wiped away her tears. "Are you Yangyang?" Grandma Yangyang hadn't seen Yangyang for seven or eight years. When they were sent to the countryside for reform, Yangyang was just a child. Now Yangyang was a young man. Grandma Yangyang was a little hesitant to recognize him.
"Hmm." Yangyang took his grandmother's arm. "Grandma, I want to go see my dad first. As for the rest..." Yangyang stared at Grandma Qi and said, "If it's really your family's fault that my dad is like this, I will definitely settle accounts with you. I mean what I say. Grandma, let's go."
Grandma Yangyang held Yangyang's hand and choked up as she said, "Your father must have been killed by them."
"Grandma, don't worry. I will get justice for my father."
"Um."
Grandma Qi looked at Yangyang and said, "Keep bragging. Who do you think you are?"
Yangyang gave Old Mrs. Qi a deep look.
Grandma Qi's heart skipped a beat.
Yangyang let go of his grandmother and walked towards Old Lady Qi.
Old Mrs. Qi took two steps back. "What do you want? Let me tell you, I have three sons. If you dare to touch me, I'll make sure you come in upright and leave horizontally."
Yangyang's lips curled up slightly: "What are you afraid of?"
"I...I'm not afraid at all."
"Then why are you backing away?"
"I..." To show that she wasn't afraid, Grandma Qi took two more steps forward. "I'm not afraid at all."
"That's good." Yangyang walked to Grandma Qi's side and whispered, "Do you know what happened to the person who sent my grandparents and dad to the countryside?"
Grandma Qi's heart started beating even faster.
Yangyang continued, "The grass on her grave is probably taller than me."
Grandma Qi almost collapsed to the ground after hearing this: "Don't try to scare me. Besides, we didn't harm your father."
Yangyang glanced at Grandma Qi and said, "You all know the truth. Grandma, let's go."
"good."
Yangyang helped his grandmother to Xiaoman's side: "Second Aunt, let's go."
Xiaoman glanced at Grandma Qi. "Hmm."
Grandma Qi's heart nearly stopped. She hadn't quite believed what Yangyang had said earlier. But Xiaoman's glance made her believe that what Yangyang had said must be true.
People were so focused on the argument between Grandma Qi and Grandma Yangyang that they didn't notice Xiaoman and Xiaohei.
Now, people see that Xiaoman doesn't look like an ordinary person, and since she's accompanied by a tall and strong horse, they think the Qi family might be in trouble.
Grandma Liu and Grandma An quickly slipped into the crowd.
Grandma Qiao wanted to go up and say a few words to Xiaoman, but she didn't dare to.
Although Grandma Yangyang's thoughts were focused on her son and grandson, she also felt that Xiaoman seemed different from ordinary people. "Her second aunt, did you bring Yangyang here?"
"Um."
"Thank you for your hard work. I thank you on behalf of my son."
"No need. Let's go."
"good."
On the way home, Yangyang's grandma held Yangyang's hand and said, "Seeing how well you've grown, Grandma is relieved. Your dad would be so happy to see how tall you've become." As she finished speaking, tears welled up in Yangyang's grandma's eyes again.
Yangyang wiped away his grandma's tears: "Grandma, how did my dad suddenly become like this?"
Grandma Yangyang sniffed: "Your father married a woman in the village. That old lady just now is your father's mother-in-law. A few nights ago, she invited your father to her house for dinner. The next day, your father couldn't get up."
Xiaoman thought for a moment: "What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor said my son is tired. But my son hasn't done any heavy work for a long time."
"Where did you find this doctor?"
“We first had the husband in the village take a look. If he couldn’t cure it, we went to the county hospital and stayed there for a few days.”
Did your daughter-in-law say anything?
"No."
Xiaoman narrowed her eyes: "Are there any famous doctors nearby?"
"No."
Xiaoman frowned: "Let's go home first."
"Um."
Grandpa Yangyang was brewing medicine for his son when Grandma Yangyang walked in through the door with Xiaoman and Yangyang. "Old man, our grandson is here."
Grandpa Yangyang didn't even look up: "You're just trying to fool me. Our grandson doesn't even know where we are."
"Really. Look up. It really is our grandson."
"You're just trying to comfort me."
"Really. Look up."
Grandpa Yangyang looked up once, then lowered his head again. "I knew you were just trying to fool me, weren't you? Our grandson..."
Yangyang walked over and squatted down next to his grandfather: "Grandpa, I've almost finished eating all the rice in the rockery."
Grandpa Yangyang immediately looked up. "Yangyang?"
"Um."
"Quick, go see your father."
"good."
Grandpa Yangyang took Yangyang to Ouyang Jia Hui's house. Grandma Yangyang wanted to go too, but she felt bad leaving Xiaoman there alone.
Xiaoman sat down on the small stool that Grandpa Yangyang had just been sitting on and looked at Grandma Yangyang, saying, "You don't need to do anything. I'll watch the medicine for you."
"Thank you for your help."
"fine."
After a while, Grandma Yangyang finally came out of the house.
Xiaoman looked at Yangyang's grandmother and asked, "Where is your daughter-in-law?"
