Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.
Chapter 76 Liu Yan packed her bags and ran away
Liu Yan's arm was grabbed. She looked at Liu Xiaoyu and sneered, "What's it to you? Liu Xiaoyu, mind your own business."
After she finished speaking, she pulled her arm back, looked Liu Xiaoyu up and down, crossed her arms, and said sarcastically, "Wen Jiguang and I haven't registered our marriage, so what if we leave? But you, why are you in such a hurry? Could it be that you have feelings for Wen Jiguang?"
"You... what nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Xiaoyu hurriedly retorted upon hearing her words.
"If you like that good-for-nothing Wen Jiguang, then go take care of her yourself. Don't drag me into it. I don't want to be dragged down by him for the rest of my life."
Liu Yan wasn't interested in the matter between Liu Xiaoyu and Wen Jiguang. Seeing that it was getting late, she picked up her bag and left.
Liu Xiaoyu watched helplessly as Liu Yan ran away.
She looked at the Liu family members and saw that they didn't stop her, so she knew they were definitely on Liu Yan's side and nothing she said would make a difference.
Thinking that she didn't know what had happened to Wen Jiguang, Liu Xiaoyu went home, took the only money left in her house, and went to the county.
She had just heard Wenrou say that Wen Jiguang was to be sent to the county hospital.
It takes several transfers to get to the county, and if she tries to catch a bus at this time, she probably won't arrive until the afternoon.
At this time, Li Xiuying heard the news of Wen Jiguang's injury and rushed back.
"What happened? How did Jiguang get injured?" Li Xiuying asked anxiously, pulling Wen Jianshe aside.
Wen Jianshe sighed and shook his head.
The situation was too urgent. If Yan Chuan hadn't pulled Ji Guang back, he would probably have died if he had fallen down the mountain.
"Don't say anything more, Jiguang has been sent to the county hospital, let's go there now." Wen Jiguang went back into the house to get the money and prepared to take Li Xiuying to the county town.
Li Xiuying saw the money in Wen Jianshe's hand and immediately snatched it away.
"What are you going to do with the money? Didn't you say Xiaorou is already gone? Can't you use all that money to cover it first?" Li Xiuying valued money more than her life.
She had always wanted to get money from Wenrou, so of course she wouldn't let this opportunity pass her by.
When Wen Jianshe saw that she was still thinking about money at this point, his face darkened.
He snatched the money from Li Xiuying's hand and said angrily, "Your son is lying in the hospital right now. Is money that important? What if Xiaorou doesn't have any money either? Are you still not planning to save your son?"
This was the first time Wen Jianshe had ever gotten so angry. He didn't care whether Li Xiuying agreed or not, and he took the money and left.
"Old Wen, stop right there! Wait for me!" Li Xiuying became anxious after being scolded.
However, she was also puzzled at this moment. With such a big thing happening at home, why was Li Yan, as Jiguang's wife, nowhere to be seen?
But time was of the essence, and she didn't have time to think about these things. She hurriedly followed Wen Jianshe to the county.
At that moment, Wenrou drove the two of them to the entrance of the county hospital.
She and Huo Yanchuan helped Wen Jiguang into the operating room, and Huo Yanchuan's wound was also treated again.
Fortunately, his arm injury wasn't too serious; after applying the medicine, it should heal in a few days.
After bandaging his wound, Huo Yanchuan came over and saw Wenrou's worried expression. He pulled her to sit down on a chair nearby and gently comforted her, "Don't worry, your brother's leg will definitely be saved."
Wenrou nodded gently. Although she hoped it would be so, Song Yuqiu's death made her feel that it was too difficult to change things from her past life.
They waited outside the operating room until the afternoon before they finally saw Wen Jiguang being wheeled out.
"Although the patient's leg injury was quite serious, fortunately he was brought in in time, and his leg has been saved. With proper rest, he will recover," the doctor told them after coming out.
Hearing the doctor's words, Wenrou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After Wen Jiguang was transferred to the ward, Huo Yanchuan remembered that Wenrou hadn't eaten lunch yet, so he went to the cafeteria to see if there was anything left to eat.
Just then, Liu Xiaoyu arrived at the hospital.
She saw the military jeep at the hospital entrance and knew that Wenrou must have brought Wen Jiguang here.
Upon finding out which ward Wen Jiguang was staying in, Liu Xiaoyu rushed over.
"Xiao Rou!" Liu Xiaoyu called out hurriedly upon seeing Wen Rou.
Upon hearing the voice, Wenrou looked up and saw Liu Xiaoyu, and was immediately stunned.
"Sister Xiaoyu, what brings you here?"
Holding Wenrou's hand, Liu Xiaoyu asked with a worried expression, "How is your older brother? Can he save his leg?"
Seeing Liu Xiaoyu's anxiety, Wenrou was puzzled, but she still comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, the doctor said your leg can be saved. As long as you rest well, you will recover."
Hearing Wenrou say this, Liu Xiaoyu finally felt relieved.
She took out the money she had saved over the years from her pocket and stuffed it into Wenrou's hand.
"Take this money. Your older brother needs it most right now that he's in the hospital. Buy him some supplements to help him recover."
Liu Xiaoyu was genuinely worried about Wen Jiguang, and even went so far as to use all the money she had saved to treat his leg.
Looking at the money Liu Xiaoyu gave her and the genuine worry on her face, Wenrou guessed that Liu Xiaoyu must have feelings for her older brother.
However, because of Liu Yan, she didn't dare to get too close.
"Sister Xiaoyu, this money..." Wenrou originally wanted to push the money back, but when she thought that it was Liu Xiaoyu's kindness, she changed her mind.
"I'll keep this money for my brother for now, and I'll tell him when he wakes up."
Wenrou originally intended to pay for the medical expenses with her own money, but she was afraid that Liu Xiaoyu would be sad if she refused Liu Xiaoyu's kindness.
Besides, this matter is between my older brother and Sister Xiaoyu. With the money being borrowed and repaid, the two might develop feelings for each other over time.
She already had a good impression of Liu Xiaoyu, and now seeing how worried she was about her older brother, she even thought that having her as her sister-in-law wouldn't be bad.
It was at this moment that Liu Xiaoyu brought up Liu Yan's matter.
"When I arrived, Liu Yan heard that your older brother's leg was incurable, so she packed her bags and ran away."
Wenrou wasn't surprised at all that Liu Yan had run away; in her previous life, Liu Yan had run away around the same time.
That's perfect, since she and her older brother didn't get a marriage certificate anyway. Although they held a wedding banquet, they weren't officially a married couple.
The Liu family are a bunch of bloodsuckers; they never had good intentions when they married Liu Yan off to them.
If we can get rid of the Liu family now, that would be a good thing.
"Sister Xiaoyu, I want to keep my brother's leg injury a secret from everyone else, including my mother and the villagers, for now," Wenrou said to Liu Xiaoyu after thinking for a moment.
Although Liu Xiaoyu didn't know what Wenrou wanted to do, she still nodded and agreed to help her.
Soon, Wen Jianshe and Li Xiuying also arrived at the hospital.
When they arrived at the ward and saw Wen Jiguang still lying unconscious on the bed, Li Xiuying cried her heart out.
"My son, how could this happen? What will your mother do if something happens to you?"
Wenrou just told Li Xiuying that Wen Jiguang's condition was very serious, and that his leg might not be saved, so she should be prepared.
Upon hearing this devastating news, Li Xiuying nearly collapsed to the ground, unable to accept it.
Taking advantage of this moment, Wenrou pulled Wen Jianshe aside and told him the truth.
Wen Jianshe didn't have any objection to concealing Wen Jiguang's illness. He knew that Wen Rou must have her own reasons, so he agreed to play along with her in a charade.
While Wen Jiguang was hospitalized, Wenrou dragged Wen Jianshe to the county hospital for a full-body checkup.
They focused particularly on examining the lungs, and sure enough, they found some problems.
Fortunately, the problem is relatively minor and can be cured with medication.
Wenrou was relieved to hear this.
When she went to buy medicine for Wen Jianshe, Li Xiuying learned about it and couldn't help but say, "If you ask me, all these tests are a waste of money. Your father is perfectly healthy, why did you have to do all those tests and spend so much money? Buying these medicines must have cost a lot too."
She glanced at her gently, then rolled her eyes. "I'm willing to pay for this for my dad. I'll be relieved if his medical check-up is fine, so that he won't have any problems even if we have the money to treat him later."
"You...you child, I was just saying it casually. I'm your mother, not your enemy." Li Xiuying was furious because Wenrou's words sounded like they were on fire.
"When will you stop favoring my uncle and my cousins? Only then will you be my real mother." Wenrou glanced at her and took the medicine back.
"When have I ever shown favoritism towards your uncles? You brat, explain yourself!"
Li Xiuying continued to grumble behind Wenrou's back, but Wenrou pretended not to hear her.
Wen Jiguang stayed in the hospital for three days before returning home.
These days, the villagers all know the news that Wen Jiguang's leg cannot be cured, and they all feel it's a pity.
Li Xiuying only learned that Liu Yan had run away after she returned home.
She couldn't swallow this insult, so she went directly to the Liu family and caused a huge scene.
This time, Wenrou stood on the same side as Li Xiuying. Everyone in the village knew that Liu Yan was the wife that the Wen family had brought home. Although they hadn't registered their marriage, they had held a wedding banquet.
Now that the man has run away, the Liu family's marriage was a scam.
Even if Li Xiuying doesn't go, Wenrou will still make trouble for the whole family.
The Liu family didn't have the money to pay compensation, but even if they did, they wouldn't be willing to pay for Liu Yan's sake.
The two families had a falling out, but with the help of the village secretary, the Liu family was able to pay some compensation, and the matter was finally settled.
When the Liu family learned that Wen Jiguang's leg was crippled, they were relieved that Liu Yan had run away, otherwise they would have been dragged down by Wen Jiguang.
Originally, their family arranged for Liu Yan to marry Wen Jiguang because they valued his labor capacity.
Now, not only can he not earn money or support his family, he's become a useless person. His family doesn't want an in-law like that.
Wen Jiguang was not surprised by Liu Yan's family's attitude. If his leg were really broken, he would not want to be a burden to others.
Fortunately, God had mercy and saved his leg.
During the days he was injured, Liu Xiaoyu came to visit him every day, which moved him deeply.
According to Xiaorou, when he was hospitalized, Liu Xiaoyu used all her savings to pay for his medical treatment.
Wen Jiguang was a man; how could he not be moved when he saw Liu Xiaoyu doing all this for him?
Although Li Xiuying looked down on Liu Xiaoyu, there was nothing she could do. Her son was in such a state that he couldn't be arranged to marry anyone else.
Wen Jiguang and Liu Xiaoyu's relationship progressed even faster than Wen Rou had imagined. She never expected that the two of them would secretly get a marriage certificate without telling their whole family.
These days, the family has spent a lot of money on Wen Jiguang's medical treatment, even emptying their savings.
Li Xiuying originally wanted Wenrou to contribute some money, but Wen Jianshe refused to accept it no matter what.
"Wen Jianshe, what do you mean by this? Wenrou is your daughter, what's wrong with letting her take some money?" Li Xiuying argued with Wen Jianshe when she saw his attitude.
"Xiao Rou is already married. I don't want her to be like you, always thinking about supporting her family no matter what. I don't want her to be looked down upon by her in-laws." Wen Jianshe used to always hold back, not wanting to argue with Li Xiuying.
But now, he has seen clearly what Xiaorou has been through.
If he, as a father, doesn't stand up to protect his daughter, anyone can bully her.
Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan had just returned from getting medicine in the county when they heard Wen Jianshe and Li Xiuying arguing.
She was deeply moved when she heard Wen Jianshe's words.
"You used to take so many things back to your family, and now we're broke. Why don't you try to borrow some money from your family? The doctor said Jiguang's leg needs further treatment, otherwise he'll be bedridden for the rest of his life. Do you really want to watch him become disabled?"
Li Xiuying was speechless when she heard Wen Jianshe's words.
Because she knew that even if she did borrow money, her family would probably not give her a single penny.
Since the incident that happened to her family, no one from her maternal family has even come to visit.
"Mom, if you can't bring yourself to say it, I'll go with you right now," Wenrou said to Li Xiuying as she stepped forward.
These days, shouldn't she have seen the true colors of her uncle's family?
"I...let me think about it," Li Xiuying said hesitantly.
She looked gentle, but somewhat embarrassed. "Your cousin is of marriageable age, and your uncle is busy arranging his wedding these days, which is exactly when he's short of money..."
Wenrou was also angered to see that even at this point, she was still thinking about her cousin's marriage.
"Mom, which is more important, my older brother's leg or my cousin's marriage? His marriage can be postponed, but if my older brother's leg is delayed, are you really willing to see him become a cripple for the rest of his life, being pointed at and gossiped about wherever he goes?"
The gentle words also brought Li Xiuying to her senses. Although she had always favored her own family, now that things had come to this point, she had no choice but to swallow her pride and give it a try.
She helped her family so much in the past, and now that her family needs help, they probably won't abandon her, right?
Seeing that she was finally clear-headed, Wenrou accompanied her to her uncle's house.
From childhood to adulthood, the thing she hated most was going to her uncle's house.
Because at that time, her mother favored her uncle's family and her cousins.
As a result, her older cousins didn't respect her at all, and they would try every means to snatch away anything good she had.
But now, she also wants to let them know that what is stolen will one day be returned.
