When Niu Yuzhu's cart arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Niu Dajun, who was helping to push the cart, said to everyone in the courtyard, "We went to work early this morning. The land that Wuyan needed to dig collapsed. Wuyan and another person from the next village happened to be digging there. They were buried together. Everyone helped to dig them out of the pile of dirt. I don't know what happened to them."

Wen Dacheng had already reached the side of the cart. Looking at the dusty and unconscious Wen Wuyan on it, he couldn't help but shout, "Wuyan! Where are you hurt?"

Gu Qingqing was standing beside the cart at this time, looking at the people on it.

It's not really a clay figure, at most it's covered in dirt and mud, and its appearance is hard to tell clearly, but its tightly closed eyes have eyelashes that are sticking out of the soil, and they're quite long.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Dad, wake up! Don't scare Dahua, Dad!" Dahua went up to shake her father's arm, but when she saw that her father didn't respond, she turned back to look at Gu Qingqing with tears in her eyes, "Mom, what's wrong with Dad?"

"Mom, is Dad asleep?" Erhua, who had come back at some unknown time, pulled Gu Qingqing's clothes and asked with tears in her eyes.

"Hua'er, move aside and let grandpa see." Dahua said without hesitation that the place where she was standing was not in the way, so Gu Qingqing made an excuse to pull Dahua and took Wen Wuyan's hand from her.

She concealed her right index and middle fingers on Wen Wuyan's pulse. The pulse was weak, but he was not dead.

Then she pulled Dahua back a step.

"The third brother is dead?" Wen Chenshi realized it belatedly and shouted, but she didn't dare to get too close. She asked with some fear.

"Aunt, Wuyan should not be dead. He was still breathing when he was over there. He must have fainted from the pain now!" Niu Yuzhu said, holding the shaft of the cart.

People finally gathered outside the mud wall of their house, but this time everyone's faces showed concern.

Wu Shan also ran in quickly, "What's wrong? I just heard that your third child got into trouble?"

"Hurry, hurry, everyone, lend a hand and carry the person into the house first." Wen Dacheng hurriedly called everyone.

Niu Yuzhu and Niu Dajun also came to help.

"Slow down! Pay attention, everyone."

When Gu Qingqing saw that people were being carried towards her room, she cried out in her heart, let go of Dahua and Erhua, ran into the room quickly, and picked up Sanhua who was lying on the kang.

When Wen Wuyan was carried in and placed on the kang, he woke up, not because he was full of sleep, but because he was in pain.

Gu Qingqing saw his calves through the gap between the people, which were twisted into an incredible and inhumane shape.

His leg was broken, Gu Qingqing came to the conclusion!

At this moment, she seemed to have become a person who didn't need to exist, and someone was responsible for putting her away.

Someone considerately took off his dirty clothes and covered him with a quilt.

Some people even ran to ask for a doctor.

At this time, someone else shouted, "No. 3, don't just stand there. Go get some hot water and wipe your man first!"

Gu Qingqing noticed one thing while watching from the sidelines.

That is, Mrs. Wen Chen really didn't care about her third son. When someone got up from the house, she just took a look to see if they got up and then found an excuse to leave.

Gu Qingqing had no choice but to leave Sanhua to the care of Erhua, and went to the fire room herself, stuffing firewood into the stove while sighing. Soon, the fire in the stove burned more and more vigorously, reflecting the sad expression on her depressed face.

I was thinking about what to do.

She originally thought of waiting for this cheap man of hers to come back, then using some tricks to make him agree to split up the family business, first using him as free labor, and then slowly bringing Dahua into wealth.

As for how to treat him, she would decide based on his future performance.

But now things are going against our wishes!

It is known now that he has a broken leg and it will take a hundred days for the broken bones to heal. Will it take until the end of the year before he can get out of bed?

It's a bit of a drag!

Gu Qingqing was worried.

It wasn't until the water in the pot started to mist up that Gu Qingqing came up with a new plan in her mind.

When she returned to her room with the warm water, only Wen Dacheng and Wu Shan were in the room. When they saw Gu Qingqing coming in, they gave her a few instructions and left temporarily.

When Wen Dacheng finally left, he told Gu Qingqing, "I've asked Youcai to go to town to get a doctor. You don't have to worry too much."

"I understand, Dad." Gu Qingqing replied.

After they all left the room, Gu Qingqing threw the towel into the warm water basin and said to Dahua who followed her in, "Dahua, go wipe your father's face."

Although this man is her nominal husband, she said they are not familiar with each other.

Dahua obediently wet the whitish coarse cloth towel and wiped away the dirt and sweat on her father's face bit by bit.

The man who had fallen asleep slowly woke up under Dahua's wiping.

"Dad, are you awake? Did I use too much force and make you uncomfortable? Then I'll be gentler." As Dahua spoke, the already light movements of her hands changed to like white hair floating on green water.

"Hua'er." Wen Wuyan raised his eyelids slightly, his voice hoarse.

"Dad, it's me, I'm here." Dahua responded, and excitedly turned back to Gu Qingqing and shouted, "Mom, look, Dad is awake."

Gu Qingqing approached slowly.

Hmm, the man who wiped the dirt off his face looked quite surprising.

Under the long and slightly curled eyelashes, there are a pair of slender eyes, but now the eyes are a little unfocused.

He has a straight nose and slightly parted lips, but Gu Qingqing doesn't like his eyebrows.

The ends of his thick eyebrows were rebelliously raised slightly, making people feel that he was a rebellious person.

However, overall he looks much more handsome than his two brothers. It's a pity that he is brainless and doesn't know how to love his wife.

After Gu Qingqing finished examining him, she spoke slowly, "You're awake!"

The man's eyes gradually regained focus. He looked at Gu Qingqing standing by the kang and opened his mouth, a dry voice came out of his throat, "I'm fine."

Gu Qingqing snorted lightly. How could she not know whether he was okay or not?

But now that the man was awake, Gu Qingqing had some things to say to him first.

"Dahua, take your sister to the door to see if the doctor has arrived. I want to talk to your father."

Seeing Dahua holding Sanhua and taking Erhua out, Gu Qingqing's gaze returned to the man's face again.

"Are you sober now?"

The man nodded imperceptibly.

"Then let me tell you something."

Gu Qingqing first pointed at her forehead and told him about the suffering she had endured, exaggerating the situation.

Then he said that he was the one who proposed to divide the family. She didn't rush to let him take the blame, as she saw that he had already digested the matter.

Gu Qingqing looked at him and asked, "What do you think about the separation?"

Wen Wuyan looked at Gu Qingqing seriously for a while, then said slowly, "If it was in the past, since you said it, I would definitely stand on your side. But..."

Wen Wuyan lowered his eyes and looked at his body, then said, "My legs should be broken. If we separate now, I won't be able to dig canals anymore. I won't be able to make money, and I won't be able to support you and your daughter."

Gu Qingqing raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that this cheap man was quite sensible.

She was also worried. If the family was not divided, there would be trouble in the future. If the family was divided, she would have to take care of four people, which would be fatal!

"How about we get divorced? Or you divorce me?" Gu Qingqing suddenly said.
