Fisherman Fubao made his fortune by fishing

Chapter 57 My cousin is a man with a story

Li Yu'er didn't leave, but tilted her head and asked him, "Big brother, where is your hand injured?"

This little girl was really difficult to deal with, so Cai Junyi simply raised his right hand wrapped in gauze to show her and said, "My right hand is broken."

After saying this, Cai Junyi seemed to have been drained of his vitality, and became as decadent as an old man with a terminal illness.

His hands were wrapped tightly in gauze, with a hint of scarlet showing through the dark red bloodstains. Was he bleeding again?

Li Yuer was puzzled. Judging from the dried dark red marks, he should have been injured more than one or two days ago. But why was it still bleeding after such a long time?

Moreover, the smell of this medicine is too different from the medicine her father used to treat his leg injury.

The medicine bowl on the low cabinet was still emitting a strange smell, making it hard to breathe.

Human beings' five senses are adaptive. Just like smelling a bad smell, if people stay near a bad smell for a long time, they will gradually get used to it, and over time they will have the illusion that they can't smell the bad smell.

But when she first smelled the strange smell, she could clearly feel that the smell of this medicine was obviously different from her father's medicine.

Even if they are not prescribed by the same doctor, the medicines for treating the same symptoms should not be so different.

Li Yuer pretended to be unhappy and said, "Big brother, are you lying? The one who is lying is the puppy."

Cai Junyi had a headache and felt annoyed. He asked angrily, "When have I ever lied?"

Li Yuer pursed his lips and complained, "You said your hand was injured. My father broke his leg a few days ago. We asked the best doctor in town, Grandpa Liu, to treat him. He prescribed a lot of medicine, but it didn't smell like this after it was boiled. My father's pain was gone soon after he took it. Your medicine smells terrible. Let alone curing the disease, it can kill people just by smelling it.

If you don't believe me, let's go to town and ask Grandpa Liu to see if I am lying or you are lying."

Li Yuer held his chest high, looking like a sulky child.

Cai Junyi was stunned for a moment. The medicine tasted different.

He stood up suddenly. Due to being bedridden for a long time, he staggered a few steps before steadying himself. He picked up the bowl of medicine on the table and stared at it for a while.

Suddenly he laughed like crazy: "I know, I know, it must be them, they won't let me go."

Then he started to cry crazily, "Do you hate me so much? You must kill me."

Li Yuer quietly watched the young man go crazy, crying and laughing, without making a sound to disturb him.

When people have things on their mind, it's like a sinking stone. If they hold it in for too long, something bad is likely to happen.

Being able to vent is actually a good thing.

Finally, after a full quarter of an hour, Cai Junyi calmed down.

He slumped on the bed, with his head down, motionless, like a lifeless wooden man.

Li Yuer did not persuade him, but just said: "Big brother, have you been bullied? I will help you fight back, okay? If I can't beat him, there are still my big brother, my eldest cousin, my father, my uncle, and my grandfather. We will help you fight back."

Cai Junyi raised his head sharply and asked, "Whose child are you? What are you doing in my house?"

Li Yuer rolled her eyes in her heart. She just wanted to ask this.

But he still answered honestly: "My grandma brought me to my uncle's house to see him."

"Uncle?" Cai Junyi immediately thought of someone, the aunt that his grandfather often mentioned, so he asked in disbelief, "Are you the granddaughter of the Li family's aunt?"

Li Yuer nodded, "Right, my grandfather, my father, and I all have the last name Li."

At this time, Li Yuer had already guessed most of the things in his mind. This cousin was most likely bullied in the academy, and the injury to his right hand was probably not an accident. He didn't have any serious, contagious disease at all. It must be that the stupid uncle was mistaking it for the better.

"Yu Baoer can't hold it anymore. Yu Baoer is going to the toilet."

Li Yuer covered her stomach, rushed out of the door and ran away.

Cai Junyi looked at his cousin who ran away, feeling both amused and helpless.

Is this his cousin?

She is such a clever girl, very different from ordinary girls.

She had already reminded the other party that there was most likely something wrong with the medicine, so there was no need to stay any longer. How to deal with the matter would depend on their own final plans.

Although I know that the other party does not have any strange disease, I cannot be careless. I don’t know who my cousin has offended in the academy.

If you offend the powerful, things will be troublesome.

The other party deliberately wanted to cripple my cousin's right hand. He had already injured him but was still not satisfied and drugged him.

Anyone who can bribe the doctor must be no ordinary family.

If my eldest cousin refuses to suffer injustice and makes a scene, will the other party become desperate and kill him to silence him?

What if my cousin swallows this grievance but the other party refuses to give in and keeps pursuing him?

Grandma only has this one brother. If something happens to him, can she stand by and put the interests of the Li family first?

One hypothesis after another popped up in Li Yuer's mind, and none of them was good.

"No, we must find out the truth. If we really settle down in Fushui Village, it will be a hidden danger if this matter is not resolved."

At this time, in the living room, the Li family and the Cai family were chatting enthusiastically, and their feelings were quickly heating up.

Old Mrs. Cai took out the gifts she brought one by one.

A ten-pound piece of pork belly, two pieces of fine cotton cloth, a bag of brown rice, a jar of lard, a bag of sugar, two boxes of snacks, and an oil lamp. These were what Old Lady Cai specifically asked Li Yuer for. Li Yuer did not give her a top-quality oil lamp, but only the most ordinary one.

It's not that I'm stingy, but I don't want to be too conspicuous.

Relatives say that some things are difficult to distinguish right from wrong. The simplest way is to not show off your wealth, not arouse others' greed, and maintain the most appropriate distance between them.

"This, this can't be accepted." Zhao didn't dare to take it and looked at her father-in-law.

Mr. Cai was deeply touched. These gifts were enough to be used as betrothal gifts by ordinary families.

His heart, which had been hurt by the Sun family before, now warmed up. Outsiders are outsiders after all, and at the critical moment, they have to be blood relatives.

He nodded to his daughter-in-law, and Zhao accepted it nervously.

This is really timely rain, Zhao sighed in her heart. If these things were put here a few days ago, it would be fine. But for the Cai family, who have now emptied their family savings on medical treatment, this is like timely rain during a severe drought, which has solved their urgent needs.

Human nature is: it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide charcoal in the snow. Now what the Li family sent is the charcoal fire in the snow.

Old Mrs. Cai finally straightened her back. In the past, it was her parents' family who helped her husband's family. Now she can return to her parents' home in glory.

At the beginning, she became an old maid because of her ugly appearance. If her family had not given a dowry that was several times higher than other families, she would have been an old maid for the rest of her life.

Where can I find such a good husband and give birth to a group of filial children?

Most families earn dowries from their daughters to support their brothers, but their family uses the share from their younger brother to support their older sister.

The betrothal gift for her younger brother's marriage was only five taels of silver, but her dowry, including the silver headwear, was definitely more than ten taels of silver.

She will never forget this kindness in her life.
