Chapter 67: Raising Him for Eighteen or Twenty-Eight Years, It’s the Same Nature
by 小辫子Chapter 67: Raising Him for Eighteen or Twenty-Eight Years, It’s the Same Nature
Li Jinnan clumsily got up from the ground, his peripheral vision catching sight of an iron rake standing under the eaves in the courtyard. A glint of viciousness flashed in his eyes as he ran towards the rake!
However, at this moment, Bai Xiaofeng, hearing that the commotion in the courtyard had subsided slightly, lifted the curtain to see what was happening. Li Jinnan happened to be running in that direction and collided straight into Bai Xiaofeng!
Bai Xiaofeng lost her balance and fell to the side, her face turning pale!
Wei Pozi held her breath!
The second daughter-in-law is still pregnant!
This fall—
Fortunately, just in the nick of time, a small figure darted over and cushioned Bai Xiaofeng’s fall, but how could such a tiny body bear the weight of an adult like Bai Xiaofeng?
Both she and Bai Xiaofeng fell to the ground with a painful "ouch."
Wei Pozi’s heart leaped into her throat: "Xingxing! The second daughter-in-law!"
It was Xingxing who, while everyone else was stunned, rushed over to serve as a human cushion for Bai Xiaofeng.
The Yu family was terrified, and they all rushed over without thinking about anything else.
Everyone was extremely anxious!
Fortunately, amidst the misfortune, Bai Xiaofeng had Xingxing as a human cushion, so she wasn’t badly hurt; she was just frightened, her face pale, and her heart pounding wildly.
She was helped up by several people, standing there and repeatedly rubbing her chest to adjust her breathing.
Xingxing felt dizzy and her little body was limp. Wei Pozi, her hands trembling, lifted Xingxing up: "Quick! Go find Daxisipo!"
Li Jinnan, who had caused the collision, remained indifferent.
"Tsk, it’s just a fall, no need for such a fuss. No one’s going to die…" He even mocked the Yu family for overreacting.
Li Chunhua, unable to tolerate it any longer, stepped forward and slapped Li Jinnan hard across the face!
"You beast!"
Li Jinnan was dazed by the blow, completely stunned!
When he came to his senses, he exploded in anger: "You dare hit me?!"
Li Jinnan raised his arm to strike back!
Could Huai Geer and Bai Geer watch their mother being beaten?
Huai Geer immediately pushed Li Jinnan away forcefully!
This time, Huai Geer didn’t hold back at all.
Li Jinnan flew backward, crashing into a pile of firewood in the corner, landing heavily among the wood, feeling dizzy and in great pain, unable to recover for a long time!
The Zhao family gasped in shock!
How ruthless the Yu family is!
Li Chunhua, still not satisfied, threatened Li Jinnan, who was writhing in pain in the pile of firewood: "I’m telling you, my sister-in-law is pregnant, and Xingxing is the apple of our family’s eye! If anything happens to them when the doctor arrives, I’ll have Huai Geer tear you apart to make amends!"
She was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes.
Li Jinnan is the debt of their old Li family, and she endured it!
No matter how arrogant Li Jinnan behaved, she considered it their family’s debt to him!
But her sister-in-law and Xingxing don’t owe him anything!
He could lord it over their Li family, but to come to the Yu family and bully them was too much!
Li Chunhua grew angrier the more she thought about it, covering her face and crying!
How could she have such a shameless brother!
Li Donghua also cried, reaching out to Li Chunhua, and eventually, the sisters hugged each other and wept.
The Zhao family exchanged glances, sensing trouble.
If the Yu family’s gaze had been merely wary and hostile before, now it was almost murderous!
The Zhao family felt somewhat stifled!
They whispered among themselves, and Zhao’s Mother spoke sternly, throwing a threat at Li Jinnan: "…Since Zhaodi already carries your child, we’ll bring her over tomorrow. If you can’t think of a solution, we’ll let her crash herself to death in front of you!"
The Zhao family hurriedly left.
Li Jinnan, feeling as if he had been beaten with sticks, struggled to get up from the pile of firewood after a long while.
Not a single member of the Yu family cared about him.
In this area, itinerant doctors occasionally passed through villages, but it depended on luck. For urgent matters, it was safer to seek Daxisipo’s help.
The Yu family busied themselves helping Xingxing and Bai Xiaofeng into the house, fearing another fall.
Li Jinnan limped out of the Yu family’s door, looking disheveled.
Daxisipo arrived quickly. After hearing a brief account from Wei Pozi, she first took Bai Xiaofeng’s pulse.
"Tsk, nothing serious, just scared." Daxisipo was unconcerned.
Wei Pozi asked again, "Should I prescribe some calming medicine?"
Daxisipo glanced at her, "Do you think medicine is something good? Her pregnancy is stable; why would she need medicine?"
Hearing Daxisipo's words, the Yu family felt relieved, especially Bai Xiaofeng, who had a sense of surviving a disaster. She held her stomach and laughed and cried.
She was truly terrified just now—it was all thanks to Xingxing!
Wei Pozi hurriedly said, "Could you please check on my granddaughter as well?"
Xingxing was still dazed, lying limply in bed, her small body weak and frightening to look at.
Daxisipo hummed, "I don't even need to take her pulse to know that this little girl is fine."
Nevertheless, seeing how worried the Yu family was, and wanting to confirm it herself, Daxisipo still took Xingxing's pulse.
Daxisipo slowly withdrew her arm, "This little girl has a good heart, using herself as a human cushion. Fortunately, she was lucky and didn't get hurt. Someone else might have broken bones or damaged organs."
The Yu family felt both relieved and frightened upon hearing this.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness, may Buddha bless us," Wei Pozi clasped her hands together and prayed repeatedly.
Daxisipo clicked her tongue, "Although she's fine, you still have to pay the consultation fee."
Wei Pozi smiled broadly, "Of course we will pay. I'd rather pay you for nothing every time you come!"
Daxisipo glanced at her, took the money, and walked away slowly.
Li Chunhua and Li Donghua, sisters with swollen eyes from crying, came over to apologize.
Wei Pozi glared at them, "What are you apologizing for?! Did you do this?!"
Li Chunhua wiped her tears, "That beast Li Jinnan... My parents raised him for eight years. In those eight years, didn't he feel any sibling affection towards Donghua?"
Wei Pozi sneered.
Such a person, cold and selfish—eight years of raising him wouldn't change anything. Even if it were eighteen or twenty-eight years, he would still be the same!
Aaaaah. Thank you for translating.
