Chapter 255: Silver is more important than life
Mrs. Zhang’s eyes were sharp, she can see Bai Erzhu carrying Bai Dazhu on his back from afar, so her eyebrow immediately frowned: “I don’t think he’s alright. If nothing happened, why Erzhu need to carry him back?”
At this time, Bai Erzhu had arrived. Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu hurriedly approached them.
“Aiyoo, what’s wrong with you? What happened?”
Bai Erzhu was tired and couldn’t speak, he held his last breath and sent Bai Dazhu inside the house.
Bai Dabao explained to the old lady and Mrs. Liu: “Father broke his legs and he’s in so much pain.”
Old Lady Bai, Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Zhang’s face drastically changed. The three of them have different thoughts though. They didn’t say anything and just hurriedly went inside the house.
Bai Erzhu put his eldest brother on the bed. This action made Bai Dazhu’s groaned in pain like a pig.
Mrs. Liu took the lead and rushed inside the house then went towards Bai Dazhu’s bed: “Dazhu, how did you break your legs? How can this be? If you are disabled, what will happen to our family?”
Mrs. Zhang saw Bai Erzhu full of sweat and covered with mud. His face doesn’t look so good, but he didn’t say anything.
Old Lady Bai frowned and looked at Mrs. Liu. She said with a bad tone: “What are you crying for? Is your husband dead? He is lying here, but your crying like he’s dead. If people outside hear your crying, they will think that you really became a widow.”
Old Lady Bai was so angry, she doesn’t know how she will release it, she needed a punching bag.
Mrs. Liu didn’t dare to refute, she accepted the old lady’s scolding. She doesn’t want her husband to become disabled.
“Niang, Dazhu is the eldest son of our Bai Family. The pillar of our family, we can’t let him become disabled. Niang, you have to save him.” Mrs. Liu knelt in front of the old lady and cried.
If it is someone else’s home, no matter who is injured, whether that person hurts his hand or leg, as long as they have money, they will spend money to get a cure. This is a matter of righteousness. No need to ask, right?
But, the Bai Family is different. Old Lady Bai is famous for being stingy. Mrs. Liu has been married in the Bai Family for more than 10 years, so how can she not know the old lady’s character? For her, silver is more important than life.
Old Lady Bai said: “Dazhu is my son. He is injured. I know that better than you. Why do you talk like that? You sound like I am not willing to save him.”
Mrs. Zhang said inside her heart: Bai Sanzhu is also your son, but did you save him? Your own husband, did you save him?
Bai Xiaofeng, who has been sleeping in his own room, heard the noise and went out. He noticed that there was a lit oil lamp to his mother’s room. This thing has never happened before. Did they successfully get the melons and now eating, but didn’t call him out?
Bai Xiaofeng rushed to his mother’s room. He saw her crouching beside the bed and crying in front of his grandmother. His big brother was covered with mud and has a heavy face.
“What’s wrong? What happened?” Bai Xiaofeng squeezed himself and went close to the bed.
Seeing her younger son came, Mrs. Liu hurriedly climbed up from the floor and took Bai Xiofeng’s hands: “Xiaofeng, your father suffered in order to get food for our family, his legs got broken. He is hurt. If he won’t be cured, his legs may end up crippled, what should we do?”
Bai Xiaofeng raised an eyebrow and said, “What should we do? It’s not a big deal to have broken legs. Find a doctor to cure him. Doctors have experienced curing broken bones, as long as it’s not too serious, it can naturally be cured.”
