Chapter 1021: The Lazy and Bad Sister-in-law of a Blessed Farm Girl (16)
The busy days passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since I came to this small world.
Xu Yin took out the body fat scale and weighed it. It was fine! After a month of continuous medicinal bathing, I lost more than 20 pounds.
The current weight is 67 kg, and the body fat rate has dropped from the original 45% to 35%.
But it is still far beyond the normal range, and there is still a long way to go to lose weight!
Goudan Niang and Tiewa Niang would ask with concern when they saw her: "Are you too tired recently? I see you have lost a lot of weight! Meng Jin should feel bad when he comes back."
Xu Yin: “…”
Are you serious?
"Speaking of Meng Jin, why is the corvee time so long this year?" Goudan Niang frowned, "My brother hasn't come back yet. He won't really be taken to the north to build the city wall, right? If I had known, I would have borrowed here and there. We have to gather enough three feet of silk to prevent him from serving."
“I probably haven’t gone to the north.” Tie Wa Niang said.
Her brother-in-law is studying in the town and is relatively well-informed.
"He has a classmate whose uncle is on duty at the Yamen. He heard that a black stone kiln was discovered in Wuxian County. Most of the people who served this year were taken to work in Wuxian County. I heard that everyone who went there had to He went in blindfolded with black cloth and came out again blindfolded. No one knows where the black stone kiln is exactly."
"No wonder my family members can't find out no matter how much I ask." The young daughter-in-law who came with Tiewa Niang said worriedly, "I heard that working in the Black Stone Kiln is very dangerous. I hope they can all come back safely."
As soon as he said this, Goudan ran panting from the direction of the village entrance:
“Mom! Auntie in the lobby! Something bad has happened!”
“Why are you in such a hurry? Speak slowly!”
“Yes, it’s Uncle Hall! He, he’s back!”
“You said Meng Jin is back? Isn’t that a good thing?”
“No, that’s not good. His legs were broken and he was pushed back on a cart..."
"What!!"
Xu Yin didn't care about cleaning up the house and followed Goudan straight to the village entrance.
Seeing that she had not closed the door, Goudanniang and Tiewaniang helped her pack the things in the yard into the house, locked the door, and closed the yard gate before hurriedly following her.
From the end of the village to the entrance of the village, there is a shortcut of about four or five miles. This is Goudan’s second trip. He is so tired that he is out of breath and can’t run anymore: “Auntie in the lobby, go quickly! I’ll wait for my mother.”
Xu Yin picked him up without saying a word, put him under her arm and continued running.
Goudan: “…”
Lao Cui's family is close to the entrance of the village. When they heard that their eldest son had broken his leg and was sent back, the Cui family immediately came to the entrance of the village.
Seeing her eldest son's legs limp and **** on the cart, Ms. Cui almost fainted.
"My son! How could a person who served well become like this!" She beat her chest and howled, "What will your mother do in the future!"
"Qiuhua, Meng Jin's leg is seriously injured. In my opinion, he needs to be sent to the town for medical treatment immediately. If he delays it for another day, it will be more dangerous." Mrs. Li Zheng helped Cui up and advised.
The surrounding villagers also said to each other:
“Yes, with such a serious injury, what’s the point of not sending him to a hospital? It’s not like he’ll get better just by lying down at home.”
Cui Qiaoqiao rubbed her mother's back soothingly and stood up and said: "It's not that we don't want to treat my eldest brother's leg. The main reason is that we have separated a long time ago and we have to listen to my eldest sister-in-law on this matter. Maybe my eldest sister-in-law is not willing to treat my eldest brother's leg. Woolen cloth!"
“Who says I’m not happy?”
Xu Yin put down the dog balls, held her waist and took a few breaths. Her eyes fell on the face of the unconscious man on the trolley, and the familiar feeling made her feel suffocated.
I said decisively: "Treat! Get treatment now! Even if you are trying to sell iron, I will also heal your husband's leg!"
Cui Qiaoqiao: “…”
cut! Who doesn’t know how to talk about scenes?
Let me see how long you can keep pretending!
Even though she was rich, she went up the mountain every day during this period and reaped something every day. In addition to catching pheasants and rabbits, she also dug up a ginseng plant. Although it was not an old ginseng that was more than thirty or fifty years old, she still sold it for a lot of money.
But in order to let the eldest brother and the people in the village see clearly the true face of Mrs. Xu, she cannot spend money to treat the eldest brother's leg now. She will wait for Mrs. Xu to run away with the supplies from the big house, and wait for everyone to see clearly the true face of this woman. It’s not too late for the eldest brother to go to the hospital to treat his leg.
So, Cui Qiaoqiao waited and waited at home.
However, the news she wanted to wait for did not arrive. Instead, she heard that the villagers who helped take Cui Da to the town medical center came back and said that the town doctor was not very sure. After helping to stop the bleeding, he asked his family members to rush to the county town. Hearing that Qinghe An old imperial doctor who retired from the capital came to the county. He is good at acupuncture and can definitely cure the leg.
"How can it be!"
Cui Qiaoqiao jumped up with disbelief on his face.
"Why is it impossible? That's what the doctor at the medical clinic said." The villager who came to deliver a message to Lao Cui's family suddenly darkened his face, "Your reaction makes it seem like I'm lying to you. What's the point of lying to you? ? Anyway, I brought the words here, it’s up to you to believe it or not!”
He also wanted to send a message to Goudan Niang. Meng Jin’s wife had accompanied Meng Jin to the county town to have her leg treated. The family had asked Goudan Niang to help her take care of things. There wasn’t much else, but two wild boar cubs and a group of chickens and ducks that needed feeding.
After hearing the message, Goudanniang immediately expressed her stance: "Okay! I've got it figured out!"
When Cui learned about it, her expression was stern.
Having already sent a message home, how come you still need to tell the relatives next door about feeding the livestock and poultry? If you tell her mother-in-law, won't she help? I'm afraid she's on guard against her mother-in-law.
At this moment, Ms. Cui felt resentful towards her eldest son. The old saying is indeed true, if the family is divided, it will no longer be a family.
Cui Qiaoqiao was stunned on the spot, still not believing that this was true!
That woman is willing to treat her elder brother’s leg? How is this possible?
Could it be that the Xu family was also reborn?
But what are you trying to figure out?
In my last life, my eldest brother was paralyzed in bed. Because he kept lying down, his buttocks developed sores and his injured legs became festering with maggots. He died within a few years. Even if my leg is cured in this life, I will still be a poor farmer. What achievements can I make?
Looking at that woman again, she is still as lazy as in her previous life—
When I catch a fish, I don’t know how to pickle it and eat it slowly, so that I can finish the meal that day;
If you catch a wild boar, you will eat more but sell less;
I do n’t know if I have a little money. For three days, I look for the villagers to change eggs and buy tofu in the tiger's house;
They are still raising ducks in rice fields. They say ducks can peck insects and eat grass, so they don’t have to pull out weeds. Isn’t this laziness? As a peasant woman, she is too lazy to pull out grass.
Cui Qiaoqiao thought about it for a while and determined that Mrs. Xu was still the same lazy Mrs. Xu, but she was thinner than before, but no matter how thin she was, she was still a piece of meat.
