This time, everyone was agitated. The women paid no heed to the men’s attempts to restrain them. They rushed forward and delivered a barrage of punches and kicks to Widow Yao. It was only until Li Youcai who rushed back from the county town in time with Zhou Hengyang and Su Wen. Only then did they manage to intervene.
Li Youcai had aged ten years in a day! He was mentally and physically exhausted, afraid that the situation might escalate into tragedy. He had finally saved Chen Guihua and Zhuangzhuang, but he still had to worry about the collective reputation of Trinity village. When they returned to the village, this kind of scandal happened again.
“That’s enough, everyone disperse. Stop the fighting.” Once Li Youcai stepped forward, he quickly instructed the village officials to separate the crowd and usher unrelated people away. Then, Li Youtian came to treat Widow Yao’s
injuries.
Li Youtian had also had a stroke of bad luck. As the only barefoot doctor in the village, he had no choice but to come. He was just about to leave with his medical kit when his wife grabbed him by the ear and scolded him, forbidding him from going. In the end, the women’s department director had to make another trip to call him over.
Most of the people who went to the county hospital to help in the morning had returned. The villagers also knew that Chen Guihua and Zhuangzhuang had been rescued. It was the villagers who collectively pooled their money to pay for the medical expenses. Su Xueqiang, Su Dachun, and their groups didn’t pay a single cent.
This earned them the contempt of the entire village.
Li Youcai fired Su Xuewu from his position as the village’s accountant. When Su Dachun heard the news at home, he passed out from anger.
Third grandma came back from the county town and scolded Ma Xiulan.
“Ma Xiulan, oh Ma Xiulan, I’ve never seen such a vicious person like you.” Third grandma stood at the front door of Su Dachun’s house, refusing to even enter.
Today’s incident with Chen Guihua opened her eyes to Ma Xiulan’s true nature. In the past, she had thought that Ma Xiulan was acting in the best interests of the Su family and had turned a blind eye to some of her actions. Although she didn’t agree with her in her heart, she was still selfishly observed from the sidelines,
However, what happened to Chen Guihua today made her shudder.
That was her daughter-in-law, who had been part of the family for ten years, and her own grandson. How could someone be so heartless? All for the sake of money, she had chosen not to save them when they could have been saved.
“What is the value of two lives in your eyes, Ma Xiulan?”
Ma Xiulan was thin and stood at the door with a gloomy expression. She remained silent in the face of Third grandma’s accusation.
“I regret it very much. If only I had known…”
Ma Xiulan’s abrupt change in demeanor silenced Third grandma before she could finish her sentence.
Knowing Ma Xiulan’s personality, Third grandma didn’t dwell on the matter. Instead, she instructed Su Xueyong that from today onwards, no one in the Su family in Trinity village should have any contact with Ma Xiulan, Su Xuewu, or Su Xueqiang.
Su Xueyong and the others couldn’t wait to agree. They wished they could immediately cut ties with these individuals.
From this moment on, their situation was officially reversed with Su Wen’s family. They would now thoroughly experience the feeling of being poked at the spine, looked down upon, and bullied by others.
In the main hall of the Su family, Su Wen, Su Xue, Zhou Yan, and Zhou Hengyang sat upright on chairs. Sixth sister and Little sister were playing with mud in the courtyard while Fifth sister stayed in her room reading since the morning.
A few days ago, after receiving the acceptance letter from Capital University, the school’s teachers and principal sent many books to Fifth sister. In particular, the form teacher, knowing her capabilities, had used connections to obtain a lot of university-level textbooks, allowing Fifth sister to familiarize herself with the subjects in advance.
At the same time, he also hoped that Fifth sister would be able to amaze the world and bring glory to him when she reached university..
