99 Li Jin’s Unreasonable Tantrum
“If I can treat him, I will definitely do it, but I will still charge a fee. My grandfather only charges for eggs and potatoes from the villagers. Now that everyone’s life is better and the factories are taking in people, I will definitely charge a fee in the future,” Xia Wan said.
The smile on Liu Hua’s face didn’t change as she said, “That’s natural. It’s only right to collect money for treatment.
As she spoke, Liu Hua looked at Xia Ru’s family. Even though Xia Wan had cured her son’s illness, Liu Hua still hated Xia Ru and felt that she was not a good girl.
“What are you doing? You’ve soaked in it, but you’re still not cured?”
As Liu Hua spoke, she walked over to the bucket that Xia Ru had soaked in. With a mere sniff, she immediately knew that Xia Ru’s medicinal bucket contained no feces.
Liu Hua was also a woman, so she immediately understood that Xia Ru didn’t want to soak her body in feces.
She snorted and looked at Xia Ru in disdain. “What? you took Wanwan’s prescription and didn’t use all the herbs she asked for? Do you think you’re a doctor too? Why are you so arrogant when you don’t have the ability? Look at what you’ve become. You can’t even bear to soak in feces. Only your body is so delicate.
“You also implicated my son. If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t have to suffer all this. Do you still have the face to despise him?”
On the one hand, Liu Hua hated Xia Ru, but on the other, she was on Xia Wan’s side. It was no secret in the village that Xia Wan and Xia Ru were not on good terms.
When compared, Xia Ru didn’t even get into high school and worked in a factory, while Xia Wan was in high school and had excellent medical skills. It was obvious that Xia Wan would be more successful than Xia Ru in the future.
When comparing the two, Liu Hua would naturally stand on Xia Wan’s side.
Xia Ru was so angry that her chest heaved.
“Don’t cross the line. Don’t I have to suffer? What right do you have to say that I infected your son? Why wasn’t he the one who infected me? What right do you have to slander me like this?
“Liu Hua, if my reputation is ruined, it’ll be your fault. If you hurt me, your son won’t have a good life either!”
Xia Ru was so enraged that the words left her mouth without consideration.
Liu Hua, not to be outdone, rolled up her sleeves and said, “Great, you still dare to curse my son? You were hiding in the house before this, and I couldn’t see you, but now, I’ll teach you some manners!”
Liu Hua was about to hit her when Song Yan stopped her.
“Liu Hua, you dare?! If you dare to hit my daughter, I’ll kill you!”
The people behind Liu Hua also started to attack. Xia Jiang hurriedly called his brother Xia He and Chen Lian over. The people of the Xia family stood on Xia Ru’s side, while Xia Wan and the other two stood on Liu Hua’s side, as though they were from different clans.
Li Jin glared at Xia Wan and the other two. “What are you three doing? Don’t you see that outsiders are bullying us at our doorstep? Why are you still standing there? Are you trying to help Liu Hua?”
Li Jin sat on the ground and pretended to cry. She shouted, “Help! Someone is ganging up with the Xia family’s unfilial granddaughter to bully us. Everyone, come and judge! Old man, why did you teach your medical skills to the most unfilial Xia Wan? Look at how she ganged up with outsiders to bully our family!”
The Xia family’s door was open, and the commotion had already attracted many people. At this time, everyone had finished their work in the fields and were having dinner at home. After that, they would naturally come out for a stroll. So when Li Jin shouted, those who were eavesdropping outside came closer.
They could already see the neighbors watching the show from the other side of the door.
Xia Wan sneered and said to Li Jin, “Grandma, who’s right and wrong? Do you want everyone to argue? Then, should we let the whole village know why only Xia Ru and Liu Shi have this disease? Why can’t Doctor Niu cure her? Does this disease have any aftereffects?”
“Grandma, I know you’ve always felt bad for Xia Ru. If I tell others that girls who have contracted this disease can no longer give birth, will Xia Ru still be able to get married in the future?”
