Chapter 27: The women in the back house fought like this
Mrs. Du looked at her mother-in-law in surprise. Was the old lady haunted by a ghost?
When things are going well, the old lady is happy all day long. Apart from being pretentious and acting in a pretentious manner, she is fine in other aspects and doesn't make things difficult for others. As long as she is provided with good food and drink and praised, she will be content to be an old lady in glory.
At that time, the old lady looked open-minded and cheerful, and was the guardian beast of the Su family.
Due to an unexpected incident, the old lady became a fugitive. When she learned that it was because of the locust extermination incident, her face changed instantly. She cried and reported to the government that Aying was the culprit and that it had nothing to do with her or Dalang.
She either beat or scolded Ah Ying along the way, taking out all her anger on Ah Ying, just like a sullen country woman.
Ah Ying's serious illness was caused by the Lu family's cancellation of the engagement, and also by the old lady's vicious words that were so hurtful, like sharp blades stabbing into Ah Ying's heart.
Even the escorting officers were annoyed by her noise and had to give her two whippings before they behaved themselves.
Mrs. Du couldn't understand why her mother-in-law changed her attitude like that.
Du, who was used to her mother-in-law's ferocious and vicious face, was horrified when she suddenly became sensible and amiable, and suspected that her mother-in-law had bad intentions.
"Why are you looking at me?" Old Mrs. Su realized that she was too enthusiastic, which was very different from her usual arrogant image, and she frowned and said unhappily.
Mrs. Su had suffered for half her life, and her sons had become successful. She thought that all the hardship had paid off, but now everything was reset to zero. How could she not be anxious?
As people grow older, they become more shrewd. Although they are selfish, they still have some wisdom. They know how to judge the situation and know when to act and when to stop. They have a good grasp of the situation.
This second daughter-in-law..., I didn't like her at first, but Erlang married her reluctantly.
Dalang and Sanlang married women from prominent families in the capital. In comparison, the second daughter-in-law was not up to par at all. Old Mrs. Su usually didn't pay much attention to the second daughter-in-law.
He was so angry about this misfortune that he would beat and scold Su Ying to vent his anger.
When I arrived in Lingnan, I realized the situation, stopped worrying, and accepted the hard life with contentment.
Unexpectedly, the second daughter-in-law, who usually kept quiet, couldn't hold herself back and started to make a scene.
You have a hole in your brain. Isn't it courting death if you make a fuss now?
Alas, little Qin is stupid, and even her daughter is stupid and makes a lot of noise!
Dalang and Sanlang are still reliable!
Thinking of this, the old lady lowered her status and took the initiative to show her kindness to Mrs. Du, but she didn't expect Mrs. Du to be ungrateful! Really, none of them are good people!
Old Mrs. Su felt depressed and walked away embarrassedly.
"Sir, what happened?" The village chief came hurriedly.
The Su Boyan brothers finally came back with the village chief, followed by Hu Zi, a middle-aged man who looked 60% like Hu Zi, and an old woman, all of whom looked anxious.
"I'm so sorry to bother you, Village Chief, so late at night!" Su Bucheng raised his hand and bowed. "My wife has a cut on her face. Does the Village Chief have any medicine?"
"Yes, yes!" the village chief said hurriedly, "Old woman, come and see the eldest lady of the Su family."
The old woman stepped forward and checked Mrs. Du's injuries in the light of the torch.
"Hiss!" the old woman gasped. "Poor thing, how could you use such harsh force!"
There were deep bloodstains, the flowing blood had already dried up, and there was scraped skin hanging next to the bloodstains. The person who did it was completely intending to disfigure the person.
"Madam, please bear with it for a while. Let's clean the wound first. It will be a little painful." The old woman was carrying a small wicker box filled with medicine.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Although Mrs. Du looked embarrassed, she remained polite.
"Ah, ah!" Su He grabbed his chest and throat, howled like a ghost, and rushed to the old woman, grabbing her hand.
"Save my daughter first!" Xiao Qin rushed over, knelt down, and held the old woman tightly.
"Madam, please let go. How can you save people if you hold me like this?" the old woman said indifferently.
When the old woman saw Su He in great pain, she was shocked. His mouth was covered with shiny blisters, his hands were pinching his throat, and his wailing was hoarse. He must have suffered a great deal.
But what does it mean that the mother and daughter are pinching their own hands tightly? Even if they are eager to seek medical treatment, they would not pinch others.
"You must save my daughter first! I won't get up if you don't agree!" Xiao Qinshi refused to let go.
"Alas, madam, what are you doing? Are you trying to force me? I am not a doctor, but I came here to see you because the young master asked me to."
The old woman's face turned a little ugly.
The Su Boyan brothers rushed home and anxiously asked if there were any medicines for burns or external injuries, or salt or honey.
When the husband asked what happened, the two teenagers had expressions that were indescribable.
Don't air your dirty laundry in public.
Guessing that the Su family might be in trouble, her husband called her and rushed over with the medicine they had stored.
When the grandson Huzi saw that something was wrong at his master's house, he naturally came to take a look.
Hu Zi's father was worried about the elderly, the weak, women and children going out at night, so he followed them.
Seeing this scene, I think it is a battle between sisters-in-law.
Alas, every family has its own problems!
The old woman had been through a lot and seen a lot of things going on in the inner house, but she had never seen women in the back house of an official's family fighting like this. It was really an eye-opener.
"I don't care. They are the ones who harmed my daughter. Why should they show it to the evil ones first?" Little Qin's hair was disheveled and her eyes were full of hatred.
"Uh, lady, don't worry about right or wrong for now. Saving people is the most important thing! Just let go!" The old woman felt that this woman was confused and felt a little unhappy.
The old lady, who came from a wealthy family, was down and out but still proud. She hated it most when others imposed their ideas on her.
Comparing Mrs. Du's calmness in the face of danger and Mrs. Qin's madness, the old woman unconsciously sided with Mrs. Du, regardless of who was right or wrong.
"No! She can't die! They say doctors are like parents. How can you be so blind to right and wrong and save the wicked?"
Xiao Qin grabbed the old woman's hand tightly and accused her of a crime.
"What are you doing?" Su Laoer came back with a handful of herbs and saw his wife pulling an old woman and making a scene, and he immediately became furious.
"Shi Yan, Chen Yan, why didn't you stop him?" Su Lao Er scolded his two sons.
"Mother!" Su Shiyan and Su Chenyan suffered an unexpected disaster and pulled Xiao Qin away.
"Su Buqing, you coward! He'er is so badly injured, but you don't want to get treatment and instead you bully others at home!" Xiao Qin was pulled away by her sons and angrily scolded her husband.
"He'er, come here!" Su Laoer went to pull Su He, "Aye picked some herbs for you."
"Hold on, hold on!" Su He shook off his father's hand, his eyes full of resentment.
"Be obedient!" Su Laoer pulled Su He away forcefully.
The old woman was able to get away and clean Mrs. Du's wound.
Gauze dipped in warm water was used to wipe away the dried blood, revealing several deep grooves. The remaining skin was softened and carefully cut off with scissors.
"My lady, be careful. I'll wipe you with salt water!"
The old woman took out a piece of coarse salt, soaked it in warm water for a while, and then wiped the wound with gauze dipped in salt water.
"Hiss!" Mrs. Du trembled with pain.
"My lady, please bear with it. The salt water will hurt, but it will heal the wound faster and prevent it from becoming infected!" The old woman kept moving her hands and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Thank you, Auntie! It's saved by the fairy maiden! Don't worry, Auntie!" Mrs. Du smiled and clenched her hands tightly to endure the pain.
"Mother!" Su Ying held her mother's hand. "Don't worry, disinfect it with salt water and apply a little honey every day. After a while, your face won't be scarred."
"Mom, don't be afraid!" Mrs. Du couldn't move her head, and looked at her eldest daughter tenderly.
