Chapter 52

Inside the house, Bai Xiuxiu heard the commotion outside and nudged her husband: “Go watch the fun.”

“Shoes, Xiuxiu, you haven’t put on your shoes! And your jacket!” Wang Qinghe chased after her.

Outside, Wang Shoucheng looked at his bewildered son.

He was even more depressed.

What to do?

How would he know what to do! Wang Shoucheng rolled his eyes at his second son, thought for a moment, and considered the consequences.

He gritted his teeth and sighed in frustration: “Second son, go borrow the oxcart from the brigade. Second son’s wife, you and your husband go with your mother to the city to see a doctor! Eldest daughter-in-law… forget it. Third son’s wife, go make dinner quickly.

Everyone’s hungry.”

Wang Shoucheng had originally wanted to make Bai Xiuxiu cook, but thinking about the recent behavior of his eldest son and daughter-in-law, he quickly abandoned that idea.

He couldn’t cause any more trouble!

If he caused any more trouble, he wouldn’t be in control of the family anymore.

Liu Xiao’e heard that she had to go and run around again, and she was very unhappy. But as soon as she opened her mouth, she was already a step behind. She softly protested: “Dad, my leg isn’t healed yet. My husband still has to work on expanding the house. Why is everything our responsibility?

My legs aren’t convenient for running around.

Why don’t you let the third son’s wife go?”

Zhao Guifen, who had just been helped out of the house by her youngest son, heard this and her eyes turned into knives: “What? Are you complaining about serving me?”

Liu Xiao’e was most afraid of this mother-in-law. She shivered: “No, I’m not…”

“If I tell you to follow, then follow. When has Dad ever changed his mind?” Wang Qingfu, the second son, glared at his wife. What did this woman know?

Going to the city, if it was in his hands, maybe he could get some benefits.

He really didn’t know what was good for him.

“Dad, I’ll go borrow the oxcart from the brigade first.” Wang Qingfu said this and ran out.

Liu Xiao’e lowered her head after being scolded, and she couldn’t help but hate Bai Xiuxiu again.

She secretly glanced at Bai Xiuxiu, who was standing at the entrance of the house, watching the fun with Wang Qinghe. She was so angry that her teeth were itching.

This running around was something that the eldest brother and sister-in-law should be doing!

If it weren’t for Sister-in-law, who was greedy, lazy, and pretending to be sick, all the cooking, chores, and going out would have been done by Bai Xiuxiu!

She was being wronged by Bai Xiuxiu!

“What are you all standing in the courtyard for? Are you watching me make a fool of myself? Get back to your rooms, don’t let me see you.” Zhao Guifen was in so much pain that she was delirious. Seeing everyone in the courtyard, she was furious and started to scold.

“Fifth son’s wife, why did you bring your mother out? Don’t you help her back to the house?”

Wang Shoucheng saw that his wife’s face was turning purple. He was both afraid and disgusted.

He didn’t want to look at her for a second longer.

Zhou Jiaojiao’s scalp tingled! She didn’t want to take care of her mother-in-law in the house either. She had never seen a person with a worse temper than her mother-in-law… oh, wait, there was also Bai Xiuxiu!

Her mother-in-law was mean with her words, while Bai Xiuxiu was disgusting to even look at.

Right! Bai Xiuxiu!

Zhou Jiaojiao immediately turned her gaze to Bai Xiuxiu: “Sister-in-law, you’re also part of this family. Mom is in trouble, you can’t just stand there and watch, can you? At least lend a hand?”

Wang Qinghe frowned: “Xiuxiu, she…”

“Alright.” Bai Xiuxiu, out of character, readily agreed.

As soon as she spoke, everyone in the courtyard looked at her.

They were all looking at her like she was a ghost!

Who was Bai Xiuxiu? If their impression of her before was that she was lazy and greedy, then these past few days, she had become a super-sized version of lazy and greedy!

She was also mean and sarcastic!

She was the most vicious person in the whole family.

She would never do any work!

And now, this person was actually willing to take care of the old woman?

“Xiuxiu?” Not just the others, even Wang Qinghe was confused. But he mainly disagreed. How could Xiuxiu take care of someone? He took care of her daily life. If something happened, he could just do it, right?

Bai Xiuxiu, hearing this, smiled back at him, and then went to take over.

Zhou Jiaojiao, as if throwing a burden, threw Zhao Guifen to Bai Xiuxiu.

But before she could leave, Bai Xiuxiu had just helped her up, and the next second, Zhao Guifen fell flat on the ground.

“Ouch!”

A pig-like scream echoed through the courtyard, making the sparrows nearby fly away.

“Mom!” Wang Qingqi, who was nearby, quickly went over to help, and Zhou Jiaojiao also pretended to come over.

Bai Xiuxiu didn’t wait for them to come over. She reached out to help Zhao Guifen again: “Mom, I’m weak, my body is weak, I’m sorry, I couldn’t hold you. Come on, I’ll help you up again.”

She reached out again. Zhao Guifen was almost fainting from the pain.

After helping her up, Bai Xiuxiu looked at the couple, Zhou Jiaojiao and Wang Qingqi, behind her. She gently pushed back with her hand.

Zhao Guifen immediately fell towards them, her leg was in so much pain that she couldn’t stand. She cursed angrily: “Bai Xiuxiu, you black-hearted wretch!”

“Quickly get out of the way!” Zhou Jiaojiao screamed, calling out to her husband, and was about to run.

“Fifth sister-in-law, you can’t dodge. If Mom falls again, she might die. I’m sorry, my hands really don’t have any strength. I’ll help you up again.”

As soon as Bai Xiuxiu finished speaking, Zhou Jiaojiao, who was about to dodge, was hit squarely by Zhao Guifen.

Wang Qingqi, who was standing next to her, was also hit.

Although everyone was eating poorly these days, Zhao Guifen was definitely not thin!

The two of them groaned when they were hit.

At the entrance, it was a scene of chaos.

Zhao Cuihua, who was about to go to the kitchen to cook, was stunned. Sure enough, Sister-in-law’s unusual attitude just now was not sincere!

Wang Shoucheng, with a dark face, looked at the three people lying on the ground, furious: “Eldest daughter-in-law! You…”

“Dad, didn’t Doctor Zhang say? Xiuxiu is not feeling well. Besides, Mom is not thin, how could Xiuxiu support her? There are so many of you, why don’t you call someone else? You can call me, why do you have to make things difficult for Xiuxiu?” Wang Qinghe interrupted Wang Shoucheng.

He pulled Bai Xiuxiu from the doorway to his side.

On the ground, Zhou Jiaojiao struggled to push her mother-in-law up. This old woman was so heavy.

Hearing Wang Qinghe’s words, her eyes widened.

Zhou Jiaojiao couldn’t believe it!

Was he blind? Couldn’t he see that this woman was vicious?

Wang Shoucheng was also so angry at Wang Qinghe’s words that he was about to lose his composure. He shouted at him angrily: “What? Is your wife wronged? Whose fault is it?”

“It’s definitely not my wife’s fault.” Wang Qinghe stood firm.

“Dad, I borrowed the oxcart.” Wang Qingfu rushed in from outside. He saw the commotion in the house.

The headman came with him. He was also shocked when he saw the situation: “What? You were bitten by a snake, three of you? Why are you all lying there?”
