Chapter 156 Shen Xiaoxian breaks his leg

The other two girls nodded.

Li Chunhong shook her head: "We have to invite a doctor. He is from Shenjia Village. If we make a big fuss, the head of the village and your uncles will only side with him."

She touched Shen Lianmeng's head and said, "Meng'er, go to Zhaojia Village to ask for a doctor. Don't be in a hurry. Once you are out of the village, walk slowly."

"Okay, Mom, I'll go then." She rubbed her ear which was still painful from being pulled.

"Okay, let's go."

After she left, he looked at Shen Moxin again: "Xin'er, pour a bowl of water and stand next to him. Don't get close."

"I know, mother."

Although she didn't want to go, she had to listen to her mother.

Shen Wanqing was very sensible and probably understood her mother's intention: "Mom, please take a rest."

"Good Qing'er, mother is fine. You shouldn't have done that just now. If you really broke her leg, you will never be able to get married again."

That's why she grabbed the shovel and hit him on the legs again and again.

When the doctor comes to treat his broken leg, he will think that she hit him.

Nothing to do with her daughter.

Shen Wanqing looked up at her, without a trace of fear in her eyes: "I'm not afraid, he wants to strangle mother to death."

It was at that moment that she wanted her father to die.

Li Chunhong sighed in her heart and touched her head lovingly: "Mother knows, I'm not blaming you."

"You go to the field and watch him, and when the doctor comes, listen to what he says."

She responded, "Yeah."

On the other side, Ji Wenhe was carrying a basket and looking for wild vegetables halfway up the mountain. When he heard Niu Guilan's shout, he quickly turned around to look.

If it weren't for that shovel hitting her, Li Chunhong might have been strangled to death.

He walked to Shen Suya's side and said, "If the head of the village knew about this, would he reprimand Aunt Li for wanting to kill her husband?"

"I don't know." He shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, did you hear it last night?"

"What did you hear?"

She went to bed early last night. Living in the cave, she rarely heard what happened down the mountain.

"It was almost midnight yesterday when I heard beating and scolding from Aunt Li's house. I was half asleep and didn't listen carefully. The scolding lasted for quite a while."

Ji Wenhe was curious: "What's the quarrel in the middle of the night?"

Shen Suya recalled carefully: "It seems to be...some widower..."

widower?

I heard from Lan Qiuhua that since Li Chunhong married Shen Xiaoxiao, she has never fought back or even verbally when she was beaten or scolded.

Why did they suddenly rise up in resistance today?

Could it be that he had finally had enough?

Who should marry the widower?

After a long time, Shen Lianmeng came with a doctor, followed by Zhu Danian.

Seeing this, Ji Wenhe picked up the basket and walked over slowly: "Uncle Da Nian, why are you here?"

"I have nothing to do at home, so I'm talking to him." He pointed at the doctor and said, "I heard that someone in your village has a leg injury, so I came to take a look."

"Your family's land has already been planted, right? Are you helping them?"

Shen Rongshan had his back to them and didn't notice him coming.

"Yes, I finished planting yesterday morning and am helping Aunt Lan."

Ji Wenhe looked at Shen Xiaoxiao, who had fainted from the pain, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

His eyes fell on the three little girls.

Because I stay at home all year round, my skin is very white, but I am very thin.

His hands are very tender, but there are thick calluses on the thumb and index finger of his right hand from years of handling needles.

One of the little girls had a wound on her wrist, as if she had been hit by a branch or a stick, and there was a long bruise.

She bent down slightly and said gently, "What's your name?"

The little girl turned around and said, "My name is Shen Lianmeng."

The youngest one.

Ji Wenhe looked at the bruises on her arm and asked, "Who hurt you on your arm? Was it your father?"

Zhu Danian and the doctor both looked up.

The news of Shen Xiaoxian beating his wife and daughter had already spread to the surrounding villages.

Farmers love to gossip, and they know every little thing about everyone's family.

It is hard to feel any sympathy for Shen Xiaoxian when he was beaten like this.

She didn't say anything, but her expression showed her agreement.

Shen Wanqing lowered her eyes and said calmly, "Dad often beats us and wants to sell my younger sister to a widower whose wife has died."

"Just now in the fields, Dad wanted to strangle Mom to death, and he also said he wanted to sell her so that he could have money to marry another woman."

The two little girls next to her turned to look at her, because their father never said he wanted to sell their mother.

However, they quickly understood what their sister meant and immediately nodded.

Zhu Danian angrily cursed: "You black-hearted bastard, you even want to sell your own wife, you are worse than pigs and dogs."

"Old Zhao, I think you shouldn't cure him so quickly. Let him suffer for a few more days."

Doctor Zhao sighed, stood up and shook his head: "I'm afraid his leg will be useless."

"But if you go to town, you might be able to save his leg, but it will cost a lot of money."

He came in a hurry and only brought some hemostatic drugs.

When Shen Wanqing heard this, a look of sadness appeared on her face, but her heart was already filled with joy.

It’s better to be disabled, with a broken leg, then no one will dare to beat them anymore.

There was no way they could spend all their family savings to cure his leg.

Zhu Danian sighed: "How could something like this happen out of nowhere? What will happen to my family in the future?"

Doctor Zhao picked up the medicine box and looked at the three girls: "Find someone to carry them home. Be careful with his leg."

"I'll go back and get the medicine. Be careful. Don't let his leg get bumped or bruised again."

Shen Wanqing nodded: "Okay, thank you, doctor."

"Wen He, I'm leaving too."

"Hey, Uncle Da Nian, take care."

Ji Wenhe watched them, one went to the field to call people, the other went to notify Li Chunhong, and Shen Lianmeng was left behind.

"Lianmeng, I am from your eldest brother Rongshan's family, you can call me sister-in-law."

She called out obediently, "Sister-in-law."

"Hey, Lianmeng, I heard a quarrel in your family last night. Is it because your father wanted to sell you to a widower?"

"Well, mother went to ask Lin Yue Niang, and found out that the widower is over 30 years old and old enough to be my father."

"My family is extremely poor. My father is just like me. He beats my wife every day. If my mother disagrees, he will beat her."

She didn't want to get married because she was afraid she would be beaten to death.

"I remember you were only twelve years old this year."

She nodded: "Yes."

Ji Wenhe comforted her, "Your mother is here, you won't be sold to a widower."

If Li Chunhong had any brains, she should be nice to him in public and torture him hard behind his back.

Shen Moxin called Shen Liang, Shen Anguo and Shen Feiling.

"sister in law."

"sister in law."

"Brothers and sisters."

Ji Wenhe responded, his eyes falling on Shen Xiaoxian: "The doctor went back to get medicine, and said to carry him back."

Shen Liang asked: "What did the doctor say?"

Shen Lianmeng seemed to be thinking about something and didn't hear what they said.

She replied: "The doctor said that we have to go to the town to cure his leg, but I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money."

All three of them sighed.
