Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother
Chapter 53 Change
The chief's wife only wanted to escape from this place. She felt mixed emotions and said nothing.
"This was captured by the camera on my daughter's cradle, which recorded what happened in the form of an image," explained Sifos.
"Being bitten by a snake is no small matter. I really wanted to know how the accident happened, so I went back and retrieved the video. I didn't expect the snake to fall from the tree."
"The purpose of showing this video to everyone is to hope that not only me, but everyone else can learn from the experience and avoid similar things from happening in the future."
"Well, good night, everyone. I'm going up first."
Sifos greeted politely, then took Xu Weiwei away and went upstairs to his room.
Xu Weiwei had been awake since the first time she went downstairs. She had naturally heard what the chief's wife said. In addition to feeling sad and self-blaming, she also felt aggrieved. She could understand the chief's wife's feelings very well. She was right. It was indeed because of saving her that Gantz was injured.
If I put myself in her shoes, if her loved ones were injured or killed because of a brave act of justice, she would also resent the stranger, the perpetrator, and even the loved ones who saved the person. Why put the people I love in danger?
She might be even more extreme than the chief's wife.
But I still feel sad when it happens to me. Now I am the beneficiary. Although I am safe and sound, I need to bear the blame, and my father and I are also treated coldly.
There is no conflict between knowing rationally that you are not wrong and feeling guilty and sad emotionally.
She didn't expect that there was a camera on her basket, and she didn't expect that her father would show this video to everyone. Xu Weiwei guessed that her father's intention was not as simple as "summarizing experience and lessons" as he said.
Maybe she wanted to prove to everyone that she was also trying to help?
The more Xu Weiwei thought about it, the more certain she became, and she felt a lot more relieved, as if half of a heavy burden had been lifted and was no longer suffocating her.
In the pavilion, the chief watched Sifos go upstairs, and waited for a while to make sure that he had returned to his room. Then he slapped the stone table and said in a suppressed voice: "What did I say? Don't blame him, don't blame him! You insisted on pushing all the mistakes onto others, and now the truth is out!"
"Then what I said is not wrong. Gantz was injured while saving his daughter..." the chief's wife said stubbornly in a low voice.
"The hints were so obvious! Your son is stupid, who can you blame if he can't see it? If he had seen through it earlier, he would have taken Wei'er and run away far away, then nothing would have happened, right?" The chief spread his hands, obviously convinced, and was very arrogant.
"He's not your son? Oh, the stupid one is my son, and the smart one is your son? I think Gantz's brain is just like yours!"
"I don't admit it. Who is the one who can't tell right from wrong, and who is sensible?" The chief patted his belly, saying proudly and asking for a beating.
Although she knew she was in the wrong, the chief's wife couldn't stand the man's cocky attitude. She wanted to compete with him, so she put her hands on her waist and started to fight back: "Did he put his daughter there? Did Ganz go there just to tease her? If it weren't for the two of them, Ganz wouldn't have appeared there at all!"
"We chose this place. He didn't say a word and even helped to clean up. There's only so much space under the shed. Even if the two of them didn't go with us today, who can guarantee that the snake won't bite Ganz, you, or any of us?"
"You! You are cursing me, right?!" The chief's wife left the table angrily, leaving the three men looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Hey! I'll go and coax your mother, you two wash the dishes." The man stood up and followed his wife into the house.
Gan Li: "Good brother..."
Gan Yi stood up and took away only the bowl, leaving a pile of plates: “No, don’t even think about it.”
The next morning, Xu Weiwei clearly felt that the chief's wife's attitude was different. She was no longer cold, but also not as gentle and polite as at the beginning. Instead, she was cautious and reserved, with a hint of imperceptible flattery.
How did Xu Weiwei find out? Because all the delicious food on the table was moved in front of Xifus...
Sifos did not have any special reaction to this and remained calm.
Because Xu Weiwei also wanted to go to the priest, and had already wasted a day yesterday, there was no reason not to go today. So the group went along the way and took a carriage together.
When they arrived, Gantz had already woken up and was leaning weakly on the bed, holding a bowl of black Chinese medicine in his hand. He was hesitant and unwilling to bring it to his mouth, with a look of deep bitterness and hatred on his face.
Xu Weiwei could smell some of the aromas of Lobelia, Ivy and White Cloud Grass, and there seemed to be licorice as well. They were indeed not good smells...
Seeing them coming, Ganz took the opportunity to put the bowl on the table beside him and greeted them one by one: "Father, Mother, Brother, Uncle, and Wei'er, you are here."
The priest said quietly, "You have to drink it sooner or later."
The chief's wife walked quickly to the bedside, picked up the bowl and put it in her son's hand: "Drink the medicine quickly, how can the disease be cured if you don't drink it? Hurry up and drink it in one gulp."
"It's too hard to drink! It's bitter, fishy, and spicy. I'd rather it heal slowly..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" The chief's wife reached out to pat her son on the back of the head, but suddenly remembered that he was a patient, so she forced herself to hold back.
I changed my approach and tried to persuade her: "Ganz is a real man, right? How can he be afraid of hardship if he is not afraid of snakes? Your sister is watching you. Do you want your sister to think that your bravery yesterday was fake?"
"No way!" Ganz took a deep breath and held it, then gulped down the bowl of medicine, then immediately stuck out his tongue to ask for water.
Taohua handed Ganz the honey water that had been prepared long ago. Ganz took a few big gulps and finally held it in his mouth, swirling it back and forth in an attempt to wash away the bitter taste.
Xu Weiwei watched very seriously. She had fallen asleep when he came last night, so this was the first time she had seen Ganz since the accident.
His originally healthy and rosy face now looked pale, especially his lips, which looked as if they had been powdered. His eyes also looked dull and he looked listless. His right hand was wrapped in white gauze, like a big mallet, and the knuckles that were exposed were dark purple.
Noticing Xu Weiwei's eyes, Ganz grinned, revealed a silly smile, then widened his eyes and stuck out his tongue, which was so ugly with his current complexion that it was unbearable to look at.
