Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 287: How Do You Want Me to Act? (Revised Unlock)
A chair was thrown over, missing its mark, not hitting Ma Zilan, but it frightened her quite a bit.
She ran while cursing, and her words were very unpleasant.
Xu Qinghuan had been paying attention to the commotion; upon hearing the curses, she quickly came out and blocked Ma Zilan, "What are you cursing about? Curse one more time, and I’ll make sure you can never curse again."
Startled by the sudden voice, Ma Zilan turned around and saw it was Xu Qinghuan, quickly speaking, "Qinghuan, your stepbrother is ill. Come with me and help him."
Jiang Xingye became anxious as soon as Ma Zilan spoke, rushing over, Xu Qinghuan grabbed his wrist, and his restless heart instantly calmed down.
"Ill?" Xu Qinghuan laughed, "Is it the kind of illness that renders him useless?"
The commotion drew a crowd, even Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang came over, and upon hearing this, the whole place buzzed with amazement.
"Really useless? I heard Li Ninghua is Li Family’s only son, and with this illness, isn’t it a future without descendants?"
"Serves him right; he’s not a good thing. Just Ma Zilan, this fool, doesn’t care about her own son but favors someone else’s."
"Exactly, they used to bully Xiao Ye a lot."
Xu Qinghuan has good hearing and heard all these comments, especially about Li Ninghua bullying Jiang Xingye; her gaze turned cold, "If you’re ill, go find a doctor, there’s no use coming to me."
"Aren’t you a doctor? Besides, that hospital couldn’t treat it." Though Ma Zilan was angry about Xu Qinghuan openly announcing her stepson’s illness, now was not the time to speak harshly since she was asking for help.
"If the hospital couldn’t treat it, how can I, a barefoot doctor in a clinic, treat it?" Xu Qinghuan said.
"Did you harm my son to the point of being useless?" Ma Zilan was outraged, "He was fine before, but after entering the police station, he got this condition. If you don’t cure him, I’ll tell everyone it’s you..."
Jiang Xingye’s fists clenched, his veins bulging, he truly felt like punching this person.
In the past, just because of her mouth, almost all of Guang’an County spread rumors that he was a murderer, a delinquent, who went to his stepfather’s house to steal money and almost killed his stepfather.
"If you dare to say that, I’ll rip your mouth apart." Zhou Guizhi rushed over, pushed Ma Zilan down to the ground with force, "Your bastard stepchild being useless has nothing to do with Huanhuan!"
Xu Qinghuan sneered, "Do you think I’m A Ye? A Ye crawled out from your belly, he has no way with you, but you think I’m the same as him?
Go ahead and say it, spread it everywhere. If I hear a single word damaging my reputation, I’ll send you to the police station to lock you up!"
She pointed at Ma Zilan, "Just right, let’s settle old scores with new grievances for how you slandered A Ye back then."
Ma Zilan was shocked, "You, you, you such a shrew, and you still want to enter Jiang Family’s door?"
"This isn’t for you to say!"
Mr. Jiang stepped forward, "Zilan, back when you were in the Jiang Family, you never cared for your own man, you didn’t care for A Ye either, always looking for greener pastures, wanting to move to the city.
Zhenhua passed away, which made it happen for you, and now you’ve moved to the city. In these rural lands, why don’t you stay in the city from now on?"
For so many years, this was the first time Mr. Jiang stepped forward and spoke, and as soon as he did, nobody dared to make a sound.
Ma Zilan looked at her former in-laws, finally not daring to make a scene, she quickly got up from the ground, "Dad, I just wanted the daughter-in-law to take a look at my stepson’s illness."
Mrs. Jiang said, "Don’t call us dad and mom, we are just country folks, surely can’t be your in-laws. You’re divorced from Jiang Family, henceforth have nothing to do with us. If you had any conscience or were even a decent person, you wouldn’t have made such a request."
"Yeah, asking a daughter-in-law to look after a stepson’s illness, really don’t know what’s in that head?"
"Bah, really not worthy, Xiao Ye crawled out from her, poor for eight generations."
"That’s right, she isn’t welcome here anymore. If she comes back, we’ll beat her!"
Jiang Xingye tightly held Xu Qinghuan’s hand, gave his mother a cold look, then turned and walked away with her.
After walking a few steps, they were stopped by Liu Zhenzhu, "Xingye, Miss Xu, her son’s illness can’t be treated, you think, can help my Hongbing? Hongbing’s illness isn’t that dirty illness, it’s just he has no strength, can’t stand up, ate several chickens already, but it’s useless."
In the countryside, chickens are almost more precious than people. The oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar for the whole year depend on eggs from chickens, known as the chicken butt bank.
"Your son’s illness is hard to treat, the medicinal ingredients needed are very expensive, it’s like exchanging money for life, your family probably can’t afford it. Even if treated, he’d be a cripple, walking and jogging would be fine, but no strength for work, unable to marry or have children."
Xu Qinghuan looked at Liu Zhenzhu’s face turning pale, drained of all its color, "Think carefully before deciding. If you don’t give up, prepare five hundred dollars, and I’ll treat him."
"Five, five, five hundred?" Liu Zhenzhu didn’t expect it would be such a large sum, "Can’t it be less?"
"Even if I have money, I might not be able to get the medicinal ingredients, if you think it’s expensive, then don’t treat him, anyway, if treated he’d still be a cripple."
Liu Zhenzhu walked back as if her soul had left her body, Xu Qinghuan glanced at her indifferently.
Jiang Xingye tugged Xu Qinghuan’s hand, "Stop looking, if you don’t want to treat him, then don’t."
"If I don’t treat him, will she go report me, saying I’m deliberately not treating her son’s illness?"
"She wouldn’t dare!"
"Do you think I’m very... very immoral, actually Zhao Hongbing’s illness I can treat, and it doesn’t require that much money, but I don’t want to treat him, I’ve heard he wasn’t good to Jiang Daicao, both Daicao and Xiaocao are very pitiful kids."
If curing a scoundrel would ruin a good girl’s life, only a fool would do it.
Moreover, that day by the river, Zhao Hongbing intended to harm her.
"I wouldn’t!"
Jiang Xingye brought Xu Qinghuan back to his place, slightly ajar the courtyard door, Xu Qinghuan looked around, "Why did you bring me here? Shouldn’t you be going to the factory to have a look?"
"I’ll go later."
His chest filled with hostility, feeling restless all over, at this moment couldn’t do anything, only wanted to stay with his fiancée.
The hidden thoughts were seen through, Jiang Xingye felt a bit embarrassed, after entering the room, he hugged Xu Qinghuan, leaned towards her lips.
Xu Qinghuan leaned back, her lips felt a slight sting, she yelled.
"Are you a dog?"
Xu Qinghuan’s hand rested on the back of his ear, slowly exerting force, fingers burying into his short, somewhat stiff hair.
"You’re not allowed to have random thoughts!" Jiang Xingye bit fiercely.
Xu Qinghuan softened in his arms, "Your actions make it impossible for me not to have random thoughts."
Jiang Xingye referred to her saying that she was immoral earlier, hearing her say this, couldn’t help but laugh, picked her up, and placed her on the kang, "What are you thinking about?"
"Thinking what should I do?" he mumbled into her chest.
