21 Wrap

"Oh my, isn't that Mrs. Xiao? Someone actually dared to agitate her!"

"Mrs. Xiao is also bad. The Su family is already so poor, just look at how starved their family is. Where would she find money to extort!"

"Just take a look. They will certainly give money. If they don't, then this problem would never finish."

Su Mian frowned. The bystanders watching outside were increasing. If Mrs. Xiao continued weeping like this, the entire village would soon gather to watch.

Su Hong's family and Su Mian's family were only separated by Liu Er's family. Su Jin Biao was about to come over after hearing the noise, but he was restrained by Su Hong, "It wasn't you who hit him, what are you going to do over there?"

"Sis, little Long had stuck up for me."

"That's because of his stupidity! You should just stay at home and pretend to have heard nothing. Mrs. Xiao is a well-known vixen. She has the ability to extort 10 eris from people over nothing. This matter should not be enough for Su Mian's family to tear down their roofs," Su Hong patted her little brother's head.

"But, little Long is our cousin."

"So what if he is our cousin. Who told him to stick his head out for you? Remember this: if in the future there's an opportunity for you to stand up for him, don't do it."

Su Jin Biao did not fully understand, but he did not struggle anymore as he was completely restrained by Su Hong.

In the yard, Mrs. Xiao's weeping voice grew louder and louder. He Qin wanted to pull her up, but to no avail, as Mrs. Xiao was taller and larger than her. He Qin simply could not move her, "Mrs. Xiao, you do not need to worry. Quickly get up. It's already winter and it had just snowed. The ground is cold and you might get sick!"

"Aunty, please get up. I sill have some medicine here. It's just enough to wrap Xiao Liu Zi's injury. We need to quickly treat the injury. If we're too late, the wound would get inflamed," Su Mian and He Qin had finally got Mrs. Xiao to get up.

Hearing about wrapping Xiao Liu Zi's wound, Mrs. Xiao stood up, "What? You? You know how to wrap wounds?"

"I know a bit. If you can't trust me, you can go to the county hospital," Su Mian knew that information about her saving Liu Da had already spread around the village, but the majority of the people were skeptical.

Mrs. Xiao stopped weeping and wiped her nonexistent tears. She was thinking that making a round trip to the county hospital would cost quite a bit. The Su family was quite poor and would definitely not give her travel money.

Doctor Ma was also absent and she was still worried about her son, "Then let your sister Su Mian help you wrap it!"

A few people entered the house. Su Mian used clear water to wash the wound twice. Xiao Liu Zi's wound was only skin deep and did not injure to the skull.

Su Mian smeared a bit of antipyretic and analgesic medicine.

"Thank you, sister Su Mian," Xiao Liu Zi was very understanding. He did not even yelp in pain as Su Mian wrapped the wound.

"It won't leave a scar right. Our family's Xiao Liu Zi is supposed to go find a wife soon!" Mrs. Xiao looked at the inch-long wound with a bit of worry, but more than that, she wanted to make the situation a bit more serious. Although the Su family was poor, not having money did not mean that they had nothing.

Other people might not know, but she heard that Su Jiang Hai had woken up before daybreak to go to the county many times.

Hearing this, He Qin understood that she wanted to blame their family, "Mrs. Xiao, you need to base your words on your conscience. Liu Zi is only 14. It should be a few more years before he goes to find a wife! Our family's little Long is already 15, but we are not even rushing it. Moreover, the wound is only skin deep. It shouldn't be visible past summer."

Mrs. Xiao closed her mouth and did not speak anymore.

At this time, Su Mian had finished treating the injury. She rubbed Xiao Liu Zi's head, "Remember to come back after three days to change medicine."

Liu Zi expressionlessly nodded his head. He wondered why he felt that sister Su Mian was so pretty as if she had come out of a painting.

He Qin prepared a basket of tomatoes with 10 eggs and gave them to Mrs. Xiao, "Take this to fill Liu Zi up. We will carefully lecture little Long later."

When Su Mian saw the tomatoes, the corner of her mouth twitched. In this period of time, her family was already sick of eating them... Her mother truly knew how to package things.

After casting a glance at the vegetables in the basket, Mrs. Xiao's expression changed.

Want to make me leave with this?

Not a chance!

She intentionally relaxed her fingers, causing the basket to drop to the ground, causing the 10 eggs on top of the basket to crack on the ground.

He Qin felt very distressed. These were the last 10 eggs in their home.

"Oh. Sister. I'm sorry. I wasn't able to hold it steadily, and it slipped my hand," Mrs. Xiao apologized, but her expression wasn't the least bit apologetic.
