Chapter 594: The River God’s Bride x “Top Scholar” River God (13)
At the end of Muba Village, the Zhou family is bustling with activity!
"boom--"
With a loud bang, a wooden basin was thrown to the ground and the water inside splashed everywhere.
"I can't live this life!"
Zhou's eldest daughter-in-law sat on the ground, crying and sobbing: "My husband went to do labor for the second son, and he broke his leg. Now he can't even afford a doctor. Isn't this going to cost him his life?"
"Sister-in-law, please stop crying."
Zhou Er's wife stood aside and advised helplessly: "We also want to treat our eldest brother's leg, but we really don't have the money..."
"No money? You still have the nerve to say you don't have money!"
The eldest daughter-in-law of Zhou suddenly raised her head, pointed at the second daughter-in-law and scolded: "When you sent the second son to do labor service, why didn't you feel sorry for the money? Now you don't care about him even though he fell and got hurt!"
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this?"
Zhou Er's wife's face changed, and she said unhappily: "Didn't we agree on that? The three brothers would take turns to do the labor service. Although it was my husband's turn this time, he was the eldest brother who took his place last time, so we let him go. Who knew this would happen?"
"Humph, you did it on purpose!"
Zhou's wife sneered and gnashed her teeth, "You have long disliked my family and want to cripple my man and drive us away!"
"Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense!"
Zhou Er's wife was so angry that she was shaking all over. "How could we have such thoughts? We are all family, who doesn't want to live a good life?"
"Bah! Who are you family with?"
Zhou's wife spat fiercely, "You are a bunch of ungrateful people! Since I married into this family, I have been working hard every day, but what about you? One is sick or the other is sick. Your family is good, you have taken advantage of everything, even your son is the only one who is studying now."
"Sister-in-law, don't go too far!"
Zhou Er's wife finally couldn't help it and retorted loudly: "Over the years, the third wife and I have done a lot of work, right? But you, you only know how to complain all day long, and you don't know how to be content at all!"
"enough!"
Mrs. Zhou, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. She looked at her two daughters-in-law with a tired face and said in a low voice, "Stop arguing, the two of you. It won't solve the problem if you continue arguing."
Zhou Da's wife and Zhou Er's wife looked at each other and shut their mouths.
Old Mrs. Zhou sighed and continued, "The eldest brother's leg does need treatment, but our family really doesn't have that much money. How about this? I'll go find the village doctor tomorrow to see if I can get him on credit. If possible, let the eldest brother get his leg treated first."
"Mom, what if it doesn't work?"
Zhou's wife asked anxiously.
"If not..." Mrs. Zhou hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "Then we can only leave it to fate."
"What? Leave it to fate?"
When Zhou's wife heard this, she jumped up anxiously, "Mom, you can't do this to my man! He is your biological son!"
"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious."
Zhou Er's wife quickly comforted him, "Maybe you can think of other ways?"
"What else can be done?"
Zhou's wife shook her head in despair and started crying again.
Old Mrs. Zhou frowned and waved her hands impatiently, "Okay, stop crying! What problem can crying solve? It's better to think about how to make money!"
"How can we make money?"
The eldest daughter-in-law of Zhou suddenly stopped crying, looked at Old Lady Zhou with tearful eyes, and said with a sob: "Mother, otherwise, let's use Sidan's money to treat his legs! I..."
"Shut up, and don't hit Sidanshuxiu's thoughts."
Old Mrs. Zhou stopped him sternly.
Zhou's wife was stunned at first, and then she started to make a scene like crazy. She waved her arms and cried loudly: "My husband is going to become a cripple, why can't I give up this idea? He wants to study for the imperial examination, which means he is sucking the blood of the whole family.
I didn't say anything before, because we were all family. Now that my husband is like this, why can't I use the money? Isn't the money we earn on weekdays confiscated?"
Her voice was sharp and piercing, filled with desperation and anger.
Tears flowed down her cheeks and soaked her clothes.
She felt that she was in a desperate situation and had to fight for her husband's life.
After hearing what she said, Mrs. Zhou wanted to say something, but then she heard a childish voice.
"Grandma, please use the money to treat my uncle's illness!"
Turning around, I saw a boy about nine years old standing under the eaves. His expression was so sincere that it made people's hearts soften.
He continued, "My eldest uncle and third uncle have worked hard enough for my studies. Now that my eldest uncle's leg is injured, we should go and treat his leg first."
When Mrs. Zhou heard what he said, she burst into tears.
That's her own son. Doesn't she want to hire a doctor to treat his leg?
But if this little money is used to treat his leg, it would be difficult for Sidan to continue his studies.
Especially since he got the first place in this county examination, as long as he could successfully take part in the subsequent provincial examination, he would definitely become a student.
If I use the money to treat my leg, I won’t even have enough money to take the provincial examination!
How could she be willing to give up this?
Zhou Yanchuan knew his grandmother's worries, so he pretended to be relaxed and smiled to comfort her: "Grandma, don't worry! If we can't take the imperial examination this year, we can go next year."
However, Zhou Er's wife lost her temper. She stood up quickly, walked to her son, tried to cover his mouth, and scolded him: "Si Dan, don't talk nonsense! This is not a child's play."
Zhou Yanchuan responded firmly: "Mom, I'm not kidding. I don't plan to take part in the imperial examination this time. There will be other opportunities in the future."
He knew that if he insisted on taking the imperial examination, he would have to watch his uncle become a cripple; but if he gave up the examination, at least his uncle could stay healthy.
Although he considered himself to be hard-hearted and selfish, he could not bear to see those relatives who had been kind to him getting hurt.
Just as the old lady was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.
Everyone turned their heads to look, and saw an extremely beautiful girl standing quietly at the door.
Her eyes slowly swept over everyone in the room, finally settling on Zhou Yanchuan, and asked, "Are you Zhou Yanchuan?"
