Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister
Chapter 26 This family can't do without me
"father."
Jiang Changtian saw Jiang Shoutian and called out to him.
"Shuixian, get up quickly! How could your elder brother and sister-in-law be such people?" Jiang Shoutian hurriedly pulled Jiang Shuixian up.
"What kind of bullshit brother and sister-in-law are they? All I wanted was two quilts from her, and she was so heartless. That donkey was practically shoving me in the face. If I hadn't run fast, I would have been crippled."
Jiang Shuixian cried and then gagged a few times in a nauseous manner.
Right now, she felt a foul odor on her mouth, and it was disgusting.
“I saw it all just now. Your sister-in-law just couldn’t hold onto the donkey; it wasn’t intentional.”
Jiang Shoutian didn't know what to say to his daughter-in-law, so he could only coax Jiang Shuixian to stop crying.
Then they asked about the progress of Jiang Changtian's leg treatment.
Jiang Changtian slowly said, "The doctor said that after a few more acupuncture sessions, it will be stopped, and then I can take it easy to recover."
Jiang Shoutian nodded with relief upon hearing this, "That's good, that's good."
Then, hesitantly, he spoke, "Changtian, can I discuss something with you?"
"Dad, tell me."
Jiang Shoutian looked at the donkey cart and said, "When you go to town tomorrow, could you take the second son with you in the donkey cart to the clinic you visited to get his leg checked?"
The doctors he invited all said that Jiang Lao Er's leg was incurable. He thought that since the eldest brother's serious injury could be cured, the second brother should be able to be cured as well.
I don't know how my wife and second son's wife got poisoned. Their mouths are swollen and they can't speak. Jiang Lao Er lies on the bed all day cursing, and he curses Lin Shuyun the most.
They say Lin is a ghost who harmed him so badly.
Jiang Shoutian had a suspicion about Lin Shuyun, but then he thought it was impossible.
Lin was a delicate and frail woman, and before her marriage she had a good reputation for never leaving her home. How could she possibly beat a grown man like that?
The second child probably has hysteria.
Jiang Changtian glanced at Lin Shuyun out of the corner of his eye, while Lin Shuyun stood to the side as if she were deaf, looking up at the sky.
"Father, this donkey cart is borrowed, so it's probably not convenient for carrying people."
Jiang Changtian himself had received kindness from Lin Shuyun, and he was not an ungrateful person.
They won't be overly kind.
Jiang Shoutian became anxious upon hearing this, "It's just a loan. It's the same whether we pull one more or one less person. I know that the second brother is usually a scoundrel, but he is still your brother. He's been injured like that this time, so he should have learned his lesson."
Jiang Changtian was still conscious when he was carried home. The second brother said a lot of hurtful things, which probably hurt the eldest brother's feelings.
But both sons are his flesh and blood, and Jiang Shoutian couldn't just ignore his second son.
"No, this donkey cart is mine, I don't agree!"
Just as Jiang Changtian was about to say something, he saw Old Man Xu rushing over in a flurry.
He yelled at Lin Shuyun, "You little brat, I was wondering why you haven't come back yet. What are you doing talking nonsense on the main road? Come on, let's go home."
"Who...who is this old man?"
Jiang Shoutian had never met Old Man Xu.
"I am this girl's maternal uncle," Old Xu said without hesitation.
Judging by his age, he could be Lin Shuyun's grandfather, but Lin Shuyun doesn't want to call him grandfather. Being her uncle would be fine too.
"So it's his uncle. I can pay for the donkey cart, please do me a favor."
Jiang Shoutian had never met the Lin family, this relative.
That makes sense; only relatives would be willing to borrow the donkey cart every day.
"If you're going to pay someone else, go hire someone else. Why do you have to use mine? Isn't it annoying?" Old Xu rolled his eyes and winked at Lin Shuyun.
Jiang Shoutian asked anxiously, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
"Tch, you still have the nerve to ask? My niece separated from the family right after she married into the family..."
Jiang Shoutian hurriedly interrupted Old Man Xu, "No, we haven't separated the family."
"What? You haven't separated the family property? You're letting my niece, a new bride, live in that dilapidated house? So you've decided not to give her anything? Is this your real father?!"
Old Xu had been waiting for these words, and he stood with his hands on his hips, speaking loudly.
Don't ask him how he knew; his third aunt had just gone to deliver a finished garment. Old Xu, posing as Lin Shuyun's relative, made a few inquiries and found out everything.
He figured Lin Shuyun would be back soon, but after waiting for a while, he couldn't wait any longer and ran out to check, only to find her there.
Jiang Shoutian's face turned red with embarrassment, and he could no longer bring himself to ask to borrow the donkey cart.
"Come on, let's go back quickly. My own father doesn't love me and my own mother doesn't care about me. It's really bad luck for me to marry you."
Old Xu urged Lin Shuyun to leave while muttering to Jiang Changtian.
Jiang Changtian kept his head down and didn't say anything.
"I want those two quilts, brother, say something! You're usually so capable, why are you acting so pathetic now?" Jiang Shuixian was still staring at the quilts.
Jiang Shoutian's face was burning hot, and he couldn't help but get angry at his daughter, "There are so many quilts at home, aren't they enough for you? Your older brother and sister-in-law have nothing in their yard, what are you taking!"
“Then I’ll give them my old one and exchange it for a new one!” Jiang Shuixian insisted.
Old Xu raised his voice, "Listen to how shameless this family is! Oh my, they're a living hell!"
Jiang Shoutian was so ashamed he couldn't stand it any longer, so he grabbed his daughter and hurried home.
Once inside the courtyard, Old Xu rubbed his hands together excitedly.
"Girl, where's my wine?"
He had been waiting for ages, and finally couldn't resist running to the village entrance. He had done another good deed, so he had every right to ask for the wine.
Lin Shuyun shrugged and said, "Oh, I forgot."
"You...you deceived an old man! Have you lost your conscience?" Old Xu's smile vanished instantly, and he condemned Lin Shuyun with heartbreaking grief.
Do I look like someone who has that kind of thing?
After Lin Shuyun finished speaking, she took out a bag of glutinous rice from the donkey cart. "I'll buy this and make you some wine later."
"You can brew wine? I don't believe it." Old Xu slumped his head, looking listless.
"If you don't believe me, fine, but don't drink it then."
Lin Shuyun first put Jiang Mi down, then carried Jiang Changtian into the house, and then went into the kitchen.
Old Xu followed behind and came in. "I've cleaned all of these. I washed the two pheasants several times. They're just waiting for you to come back so we can cook them."
Lin Shuyun checked the cleanliness of the pheasant. "The old man is quite capable."
"Of course! Where's the bricklayer you hired? This house definitely needs fixing; it leaked last night." Old Xu thought to himself that he also needed to buy some furniture, and he would go up the mountain tomorrow to catch more rabbits to sell.
Lin Shuyun paused in her chopping of the pheasant. "...I forgot."
"What can I expect from you? You've forgotten everything." Old Xu sat under the stove, tending the fire, looking annoyed.
He made the right choice coming to this family; we can't do without him.
"Yunniang, Yunniang!"
Just as the pheasant and mushroom soup was simmering, someone knocked on the door.
"Mother, elder brother, Hongwen, what brings you here?"
As soon as Lin Shuyun came out, the three of them had already entered the courtyard.
