Chapter 147: Is that medicine for you? Are you just going to grab it?
It was by chance that Chen met these people.
"I had someone escort them to the government office yesterday. Nothing will happen to them from now on."
Chen smiled bitterly.
The soundproofing at home was poor, and while she was talking to Bai Sui'an, her husband and children were still arguing.
Bai Sui'an acted as if he couldn't hear her and only talked to her about the injuries on his body.
Perhaps because Bai Sui'an's expression wouldn't change much, Chen also looked calm while treating the wound.
Aunt Wang saw the blood flowing and her face turned pale. She quickly turned away and didn't look.
"Your wound...wasn't it an accident?"
It was Bai Sui'an who treated the wound yesterday. She sewed it up.
Now after opening the clothes and wiping off the blood, only the broken thread ends were left.
Aunt Wang quickly explained, "I was working outside. Jackie Chan said my sister-in-law wanted to see you, so I came to find you. My sister-in-law applied the medicine herself. I don't know how the injury became like this."
She was always blamed on weekdays, and now she was afraid that Bai Sui'an would blame her too, so Aunt Wang explained quickly.
Bai Sui'an stopped the bleeding and asked Chen, "Where is the bottle of medicine I gave you?"
A trace of fear appeared on Chen's frail face. She felt a little guilty and said, "I gave it to Jackie Chan."
Bai Sui'an asked, "Didn't Doctor Xu examine him? It's just a superficial wound, not a serious problem."
"He came over and said he was in a lot of pain and that your medicine was effective, so he asked me to try it on him..."
Chen looked at Bai Sui'an's expression. When she saw Bai Sui'an like this before, she just thought that he didn't want to pay attention to her, and she had to scold him harshly to get Bai Sui'an's attention.
Now Bai Sui'an frowned slightly, and she didn't dare to speak.
Bai Sui'an wanted to sew Chen's wound again, so he stopped talking.
Aunt Wang suddenly remembered something and quickly said:
"I remember when we were having dinner just now, my husband said to me, Sui'an, you have a friend who runs a clinic and wants to find people from our village to help grow medicinal herbs.
Then Jackie Chan was convinced that Sui'an had many valuable medicines that helped save Lin Che. "Last night, I told my father-in-law about you sending my sister-in-law back home. Doctor Xu didn't prescribe medicine for him last night, so he set his sights on the medicine you gave my sister-in-law."
"Jackie Chan is not a bad person. His father was very cruel last night, so he came to me crying in pain. That's why I gave him this medicine." Chen paused for a moment, and seeing that Bai Sui'an's expression did not change, she continued,
"He was very filial. When he saw my injury, he said he knew how to treat it and wanted to help me. It was just that he was a little clumsy, so he made it bleed."
Bai Sui'an asked calmly, "He said he could cure it, so you believed him?"
"After all, he has studied for so many years..."
After sewing the wound, the noise of the father and son arguing could still be heard outside.
Bai Sui'an tilted his head and chuckled softly: "You said he was filial, but you were injured like this, why didn't he come to see you? He took the medicine and ran away. Does he think your injury doesn't need medicine?"
It was so outrageous that even she found it outrageous, but Chen was still defending her child.
"Do you know that if you don't take medicine for this injury, you will die."
Bai Sui'an was very disappointed with the result.
There are no modern medicines in this world. If Bai Sui'an hadn't given Chen the special medicine mixed with spiritual spring water last night, Chen would have bled to death as soon as her wound opened.
"Jackie Chan didn't mean it," Chen said.
Bai Sui'an didn't say much to her, but asked Aunt Wang to get Chen's medicine back.
Aunt Wang went out for a short while and came back empty-handed.
She stammered, "Big Brother and Jackie Chan were fighting over the medicine, and they didn't hold it firmly, so it fell to the ground and broke. Now they want me to ask you for another can."
Bai Sui'an looked at Chen and spread his hands, saying, "Life-saving medicine is very expensive. Your husband and son threw the medicine away. You have no medicine left. Just wait to die."
The two sisters-in-law turned pale. Aunt Wang asked anxiously, "Is he really dead? Is your friend who runs a clinic, Sui'an, also dead? This is a matter of life and death. Even if we have to spend money, it's okay!"
"Ten taels a can." Bai Suian said without hesitation.
"This... all the money in the house has been confiscated... Last night, my father-in-law said he wouldn't care about my sister-in-law's health anymore, and if she can't survive, he'll bury her... This, this is too much money to come up with..."
Aunt Wang bit her lip. In fact, she had saved some private money as dowries for her two daughters.
Because she herself did not marry well and did not have much dowry, her life was so miserable, so she wanted her daughters to marry better in the future.
But now...
She gritted her teeth and still didn't tell anyone about her private money.
Chen gave birth to a son, and she gained a lot of benefits by being sweet-talkers, so she must have a lot of private money.
"So much..." Chen opened her mouth and said, "Can't you be more flexible? You confiscated all the money from my family yesterday, and you also gave money to Li Xiaomiao before..."
"My family's wealth didn't come from the wind." Bai Sui'an interrupted Chen. "How can I support two sick people and four children? Do I have to risk my life to earn money and support your family?"
"You guys go find a doctor yourselves." Bai Sui'an stood up.
Chen reached out to grab her, but she dodged.
"I, I don't have money to hire a doctor, so I came to you." Chen said weakly.
It's outrageous.
Bai Sui'an turned around and looked down at her condescendingly: "What do you mean? Do I deserve to be ordered around by your family? If you think your son wants to kill you, why would I save you?"
She was a little angry.
She was angry that there was such a bad boy like Li Chenglong in the world, and she was also angry that Chen was still biased towards her son at this point.
"I, I didn't let Jackie Chan kill me..."
"Then what does it mean that he ripped your wound open?"
"Doesn't he have..."
Chen was stubborn and Bai Sui'an was too lazy to talk to her anymore.
Aunt Wang pulled Bai Sui'an aside and began to persuade Chen: "Sister-in-law, please take out your private money and make up for it! Life is more important. If you are really short of money, you can borrow some from Sui'an. We can even sign a document!"
Bai Sui'an waited for Chen's answer, but Chen hesitated for a long time before saying, "My money is reserved for Jackie Chan's education. You can't touch it!"
"Then wait for death." Bai Sui'an broke free from Aunt Wang's hand and left without looking back.
There is simply no cure.
When Bai Sui'an went out, the father and son stopped arguing and squatted at the gate waiting for Bai Sui'an.
They all heard what Bai Suian said just now. Bai Suian was unwilling to give the medicine, so the father and son reached an agreement to force Bai Suian to hand over the medicine.
"Give us the medicine! Otherwise we won't let you go!" Li Chenglong shouted.
Bai Sui'an put down his medicine box, stretched his arms and legs, and asked, "Is that medicine for you? Are you just grabbing it?"
The father and son clenched their fists. Li Quanwang gritted his teeth and cursed, "You dare not give me a try? Believe it or not, I will beat you to death!"
