C48 (1/2)
Amongst them, the most excited one was still the Madame Dai.
When she heard Doctor Du's words, she subconsciously felt that Dong Lei's leg would not be able to be cured and would lame itself for decades to come.
Although she felt that his son was good no matter what, Dong Lei was not even twenty years old and had not gotten married yet.
If he were to continue to be crippled, it would definitely affect his marriage and his life in the future.
Thinking of this, how could Madame Dai, who placed all of her hopes on her eldest son, endure it?
How could she care about the other people in the living room? Without hesitation, she quickly rushed in front of Qian Liuer and grabbed her hair. Then, her thick and rough palm landed on Qian Liuer's face.
”Pa, pa, pa.”
After three consecutive slaps, Madame Dai was rendered somewhat numb by the hand that had suddenly swung out just now, and had no choice but to stop in her tracks.
Madame Dai's movements just now were too fast, and Lady Shen who could barely fight against her had no intentions of saving Qian Liuer at all.
She even thought evilly that it would be best if Madame Dai could just beat Qian Liuer to death this disgraceful eldest daughter of hers. Since her second daughter was already grown up and could work, Qian Liuer, this disgraceful eldest daughter, would not affect her family's work at all even if she died.
Moreover, if Qian Liuer was beaten to death, she could get the Dong Clan to compensate her family with some silver.
Because Mrs Shen did not react, it was only when Madame Dai's hands had stopped because of the numbness did Xu Shiqiu finally have the chance to give the servant women standing by the door a meaningful glance, telling them to take action and stop Madame Dai's actions.
The moment Madame Dai was pulled by the servant, she was somewhat unwilling, but when she saw Xu Shiqiu's expression when he looked at her, she immediately reacted and stopped what she was doing.
After Xu Shiqiu saw that Madame Dai had stopped moving, he looked at him and asked: ”What happened to his leg, can you treat him?”
Xu Shiqiu understood the personality of the Doctor Du, hence he said those words.
Based on Xu Shiqiu's previous understanding of Doctor Du, if Dong Lei's legs could not be treated, he would immediately get up and leave, and would not continue to stay here while saying so many plausible things.
Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Doctor Du glanced at him, with dissatisfaction in his eyes. It was obvious that he was dissatisfied that Xu Shiqiu guessed his intentions so quickly.
But since Xu Shiqiu saw through it, Doctor Du was no longer prepared to hide it anymore. He released the hand which was checking Dong Lei's legs, and after thinking for a moment in his head, he opened his mouth and said: ”It's okay if I can cure you, but I can't guarantee if I can recover completely after I'm cured. Furthermore, his leg is injured once again, so the treatment process is very long and painful.
Other than Xu Shiqiu, who could tell if what Doctor Du said was true or false, no one else could.
When they heard the Doctor Du say that it could be cured, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. However, when the Doctor Du finished speaking, the Qian Family's people tensed up again.
Sure enough, just as they tensed up, Madame Dai, who was stopped by a servant, looked at the village chief and said, ”Village Chief, my Lei'er's legs were made into such a state by your Qian Family. This leg healing money, your Qian Family should pay!”
Madame Dai didn't forget to pay attention to Xu Shiqiu even after the village chief said that. He was afraid that Xu Shiqiu would be dissatisfied with what she had done.
Fortunately, after she opened his mouth to speak, Xu Shiqiu did not have any intention of interrupting her, and this made Madame Dai even more daring.
Madame Dai looked at the village chief who was frowning and silent after hearing what she said. She thought for a moment, then stared at Qian Liuer who was kneeling on the ground and said, ”The reason why my Lei'er became like this today is all because of Qian Liuer's scheme and your Qian Family's guards. I already told you, you don't have to watch over my Lei'er. No one in the village doesn't know his temper, and she definitely won't run away.
But you won't believe what I say, and you don't want the other villagers watching over you, you only believe in your own family. ”Now that my Lei'er's leg is in trouble, it is naturally the responsibility of your Qian Family.”
The more Madame Dai spoke, the more pleased she became. However, what met him was the silence of the entire Qian Family.
The Qian Family's people didn't think that Dong Lei's leg would become like this, and the key point was that they themselves had said that Qian Liuer's little brother would kick Dong Lei's leg in front of them.
Xu Shiqiu did not care what the Qian Family thought.
After Xu Shiqiu finished speaking, he looked at Dong Lei who was also deep in thought, and then looked up and said to Dong Shu: ”We came out for quite a while, Mother must be getting impatient, so let's go home first. I believe that your Cousin will be able to settle the matters here. This can be considered my first test on him. ”
When Xu Shiqiu opened his mouth this time, it specifically mentioned the Old Madame Xu, which also made it clear that this was a test for Dong Lei.
Furthermore, Doctor Du also said that Dong Lei's leg could be healed. After hearing Xu Shiqiu speak again, he did not resist like before.
