Chapter 8 Unwillingness to get leg treatment, argument
Su Yun nodded.
She had thought clearly on the way back that if the Xiao family's current situation wanted to get better, they could only heal Xiao Lin's legs first.
Only a healthy person is more convincing when he talks about fighting hard.
Moreover, Xiao Lin's leg has been injured for almost half a year, and she's afraid it will really be ruined if it drags on any longer.
Mrs. Xiao is naturally very happy that someone cares about her only grandson. But she also knows very well what is going on in their family. She controls the family's property. After her son's accident, her daughter-in-law was paralyzed in bed and spent money on medicine.
It was far beyond their family's affordability.
This is why Xiao Lin had no money to go to a good hospital when his leg was injured.
Now that Su Yun took the initiative to mention it, Mrs. Xiao was very happy.
Although she was happy, she was also worried that the dozens of dollars she had might not be enough to enter the county hospital.
But this opportunity...
"Wait a minute." Mrs. Xiao turned around and went to the house to find money.
"Grandma." Xiao Lin walked in from outside with a cane. He looked at Su Yun and his eyes fell on Mrs. Xiao: "Grandma, you don't have to be busy. My leg can't be cured."
He won't treat it either.
Su Yun:???
For a moment, I suspected that I heard wrongly.
How come Mrs. Xiao doesn't understand Xiao Lin's heart? It's because this eldest grandson is so sensible that he has such a hard life.
"Anzi..."
"Grandma, don't think too much. My leg really can't be cured. I asked my comrades to ask."
What Xiao Lin said is a lie.
But he had been in the army for many years, and he had become very good at keeping his expression straight when he spoke and not letting others see his emotions. Mrs. Xiao really couldn't figure out for a while whether it was because she couldn't cure it or because she didn't want to drag down the family.
Su Yun sighed and walked back to Xiao Lin.
"Did you ask your comrades? Really?"
Her black and white apricot eyes were exceptionally bright. Being stared at by her like this, Xiao Lin couldn't tell a lie.
He turned away and coughed.
"certainly."
"Okay, I thought you didn't want to spend my money, so you didn't want to treat your leg." After Su Yun said that, she turned around and walked into the woodshed, where she took out the hatchet and basket.
"Grandma, I went up the mountain to chop wood."
She put the basket on her back and left. Xiao Lin tried to chase her, but Su Yun stopped her.
"Don't come. What if your legs and feet are inconvenient and you fall into the mountains?"
Xiao Lin:......
He somewhat suspected that Su Yun did it on purpose, but seeing her sincere look, he didn't believe that this hard-working girl would deliberately provoke him.
In fact, Su Yun did it on purpose.
Of course she also knew that Xiao Lin didn't want to have his leg treated because he didn't want to add another burden to the already devastated family. From his point of view, his concept was not wrong.
Su Yun believes that the body is the capital of revolution. Without a good body, everything is empty talk.
It is obvious that the first round of negotiations cannot continue.
Su Yun didn't give up either.
She will slowly tell Xiao Lin through practical actions that there is no shame in using her money to treat his leg first. Even if he doesn't want to get involved with her, there will be no problem in returning the money to her when his leg is healed.
Right now, Xiao Lin must first discover for himself how serious the drawbacks of his inconvenient legs and feet are.
Su Yun carried the basket on her back and went up the mountain.
In the courtyard of the Xiao family, Mrs. Xiao looked at her grandson who had been chasing the girl, sighed and turned around and entered the room.
"Go to the backyard and catch a chicken and kill it."
Xiao Lin came back to her senses: "Grandma?"
"The Su family girl is a good girl, we can't do what the old Su and his wife did."
The marriage that originally belonged to Su Yun was forcibly given to Su Ying. The Xiao family could not afford three matchmakers and six betrothals, but on a special day like today, they could still do it by killing one of the two egg-laying hens in the family.
of.
At least, don't let the girl feel too cold.
Xiao Lin had a smile on his face and went to the backyard on crutches.
………
Su Yun has grown up in the village since she was a child, and she is very familiar with the mountains around the village. During the slack season, she goes up to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and pick wild fruits with her little sisters from the same village. Where the wild fruits are sweet, where are they?
She knew that wild vegetables were more fragrant.
The Xiao family is at the end of the village, and there is a mountain behind their house.
Su Yun walked across the fields toward the mountains, and within a few steps she met several little sisters from the village who were going up the mountains.
"Xiaoyun? Why are you here?"
The person who started talking to Su Yun was the girl named Zhao Meiyu who was the best in Su Yun's village. She was about the same age as Su Yun, they were both nineteen years old.
Zhao Meiyu has already said they are engaged and will get married soon.
She saw Su Yun running over quickly, looked her up and down, and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"
The whole village knew that the two Su sisters had exchanged marriages.
Some people who couldn't stand Su Yun secretly laughed at her. No matter how good she looked or how fast she worked, what's the use? Wasn't she sent to a poor family by her biological parents?
Those who really care about Su Yun, such as Zhao Meiyu, are very worried about her situation.
After all, it would be difficult for any young girl to adapt to such a blow.
She didn't expect that Su Yun would adapt so quickly and even go up the mountain to collect firewood.
Su Yun nodded: "There is no firewood at home, I will go up the mountain to pick up some firewood."
"Okay then, let's go together..."
Before Zhao Meiyu finished speaking, among the other three people, He Dahua, who didn't get along with Su Yun, spoke up.
"Oh, isn't this our bride? Why do you have to go to the mountains to collect firewood just after getting married? This is not something the village chief's wife does!"
He Dahua said angrily, "Oh, I forgot, some people are willing to be humble and have no qualifications to marry into the village chief's family!"
After she finished speaking, she smiled and looked at Su Yun proudly.
Su Yun snorted.
Zhao Meiyu turned around and glared at He Dahua and said, "He Dahua, you can't spit out ivory from your dog's mouth, so just shut up."
Although Zhao Meiyu went up the mountain with He Dahua and others, they only met on the way. Her relationship with them was not that good.
"Zhao Meiyu, be careful. After marrying Su Yun, who is living in a broken family, be careful about coming to your house to fight the autumn wind. I'm afraid your mother-in-law and father-in-law will take you with them and kick you out together, hahaha..."
He Dahua laughed exaggeratedly.
Zhao Meiyu was anxious and wanted to go up and argue with He Dahua.
Su Yun held her down.
"Yes, I am not qualified to marry and enjoy happiness. But, are you qualified?" Su Yun looked at He Dahua with a sneer and retorted, "Some people have been pestering others since they were young. They are reluctant to eat lunch and want to give it to others, but
I didn’t expect that the bride in the end would not be you!”
Su Yun is not a kind person.
For people like He Dahua, who have been coming to her to show their presence since childhood, she would not swallow her anger.
He Dahua's old man was exposed, and his dark face turned red. She casually wanted to grab a wooden stick on the roadside and throw it at Su Yun, but she unexpectedly caught a thorn with spikes.
