The road to wealth of a peasant widow

Chapter 198: Another family split!

It was the same that year. My second uncle ran home like a madman. There was a pool of blood on the ground. My second aunt was groaning in the house, but his grandmother and mother were doing their own things as if nothing had happened.

But now, his grandmother is gone, and his mother's face does not show the concern that a mother-in-law should have, but instead one that cannot be concealed is filled with panic.

Changxing didn't bother to find out what was going on. He went into the room to see his wife. Qiao was in so much pain that her forehead was covered in sweat and her skirt was half stained with blood.

"Xiao Lian, what happened to you? Why did you fall?" Changxing asked in a trembling voice.

"Brother Xing, I don't know either. I was walking normally, but then my foot slipped and I fell..." Qiao Xiaolian said in pain.

Changxing was startled and his feet slipped?

This yard is full of dirt roads, and it hasn't rained for several months, so how could it be slippery?

Soon, the village midwife arrived and carefully examined Mrs. Qiao. Changxing walked out of the room and began to observe the place where Mrs. Qiao fell.

Sure enough, there was a smear of oil on the ground~!

Although it was covered with soil, oil is difficult to remove once it gets on him, so he still found traces of it.

He gritted his teeth, someone was deliberately trying to harm him!

This reminded him of what happened back then.

He thought about his mother's expression when he came back, and he went up to her with red eyes and asked, "Why did Qiao fall down for no reason? What's with the oil on the ground?"

Zhou was furious. The second son had become more and more unruly in the past few years and actually spoke to her in such a tone. However, looking at her son's terrible appearance, she felt inexplicably timid and did not dare to confront him at this time.

"I don't know what's oily or not. She fell down by accident. Why are you asking me?"

Zhou said as lightly as possible.

Chang Xing's forehead was bulging with veins, and he whispered in a hoarse voice: "Don't think I don't know. Back then, when my second aunt was pregnant with Sui Sui, she fell down. I saw it all!"

Zhou's heart trembled when she heard this. She retorted fiercely: "What did you see? This happened many years ago. Why are you bringing it up? Besides, what does this have to do with me? Don't blame me for everything!"

"If anything happens to Xiaolian, I won't let you off easy!" Changxing growled.

Back then, Changrong smeared oil on the ground and Second Aunt almost died in childbirth after stepping on it. Second Uncle also threatened to die and separated from the eldest wife's family. Changrong made such a big mistake, but he was not punished at all afterwards and continued to do as he pleased for so many years.

Of course, he is not a glorious character either. He saw what happened but did not say anything, allowing things to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

That's just because he hated everyone in this house, including his grandparents, parents, incompetent uncle and aunt, brothers and cousins. He didn't like any of them, and he had long been disgusted with everything in this house.

He had had enough of this family. If the money he had saved was not enough, he would have set up his own business with his wife long ago.

The reason why he was the one who went on patrol every time was because he could get ten cents every time he replaced Changsheng and Changrong. In order to save more money, he went for them again and again.

But if he knew that something would happen to Mrs. Qiao when he was not at home, he would not go even if it was just a hundred cents each time, and he would definitely stay at home to take good care of her.

Qiao was the only person who treated him sincerely in all these years. She was timid and obedient, and regarded himself as her only support. She would do whatever he said. Such a person who never disobeyed others would actually attract the attention of others and be harmed like this.

No, even if my mother doesn't love me anymore, the baby in Qiao's belly is still her grandson. She won't take the initiative to harm her. If someone harms Qiao, there must be someone else!

Tan! It must be her!

Changxing suddenly thought of it.

As for the reason, it is easy to understand. Because it was determined that the baby in Qiao's belly was a son, her father and mother paid great attention to her. Tan had given birth to three daughters in a row and was often ridiculed by her mother for this. She was blamed for not being able to carry on the Liu family's bloodline and making Changsheng not even have a son until now!

Haha, these women!

Changxing figured out what had happened and laughed a little crazily.

This smile happened to be seen by Tan, who couldn't help feeling uneasy. Is this old man crazy? His wife is like this, but he can still smile!

Changxing saw Tan and stared at her sinisterly: "If anything happens to Xiaolian, I will make you and your child be buried with her!"

Tan felt a chill in her heart: Could he have known about this? No, that’s not possible. I have covered it with soil, so nothing can be seen. My mother-in-law also said she would help me, so no one will know about this anymore!

Tan forced a smile and said, "Uncle, what are you talking about? I know you are worried about your sister-in-law, but you can't just talk nonsense here. What does this have to do with me?"

Changxing glared at her coldly and turned to leave.

It is not convenient to go out at this time and he cannot call a doctor, but if there are any medicinal herbs, it would be of some help. He can only go to Muramasa's house for help.

Liu Youcai did have medicine at home. Whenever Chen Cui sent various common medicines to the Chen family's elders, she would always prepare some for him.

Liujiaping’s current state of unity and development is inseparable from this fair and honest old man, so she hopes that Liu Youcai can live a long life and help maintain the current situation.

After hearing about this, Liu Youcai sighed deeply and asked Changxing to bring all the medicinal herbs that might be used by him, especially those that were for replenishing qi and blood. Those were made with ginseng and were extremely precious!

Mrs. Qiao kept moaning inside, and the midwife had a look of distress on her face. Alas, why did this family always encounter such things? Fortunately, Mrs. Qiao's health was much better than Mrs. Chen's back then, and it was not that dangerous.

Changxing sat at the door with a look on his face that said "keep away from strangers". He didn't eat, drink, or move, and ignored anyone who called him.

Finally, Yue Rong persuaded him a few more times and brought him some water, and he finally drank it.

After struggling for four hours, Mrs. Qiao finally gave birth to a thin baby boy at nightfall. The baby's body was red and although his cry was not loud, he was healthy.

Changxing held his newborn son in his arms with trembling legs, said a few words to his wife through the window in the room, and then burst into tears.

He wiped away his tears and made up his mind that he had to divide the family, he had to divide it!

He understood how his second uncle felt back then, and also understood why his second uncle would rather get his head broken and bleed than give in. If anyone could endure this kind of separation of life and death, he simply could not be considered a man!

Although he is not a good man, he is sincere to his wife who loves him wholeheartedly. He does not want his wife and children to continue living in such a home, and he must break up with them!
