Chapter 101 This person absolutely must be saved; he's blocking the way.
Ling Xiaomei also sat on the carriage shaft, feeling somewhat uneasy. After leaving Qianjia Village, she finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Fourth Sister-in-law, how is Fourth Brother?"
“You won’t die for now, but…” Du Mingxian glanced back at her, “If you continue living in the Qian family and your life becomes a mess, your fourth brother might be driven to his death by you.”
"what?"
Du Mingxian rolled her eyes and said, "Your fourth brother hopes you can get a divorce."
“No, I can’t get a divorce. If I get a divorce and go home, how will our family ever be able to hold our heads high in the village again?”
"So what? Since we dare to let you divorce, we have our reasons. If we're not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Du Mingxian decided to give it a strong dose of medicine. "Do you know what the consequences will be if you stay in the Qian family any longer?"
Ling Xiaomei silently lowered her head. The Qian family were a bunch of beasts. They even... even plotted to make her work as a prostitute to earn money for the family. They were still planning this.
If that day ever comes, she will die. That way, she can find peace and avoid damaging the Ling family's reputation.
Seeing that Ling Xiaomei remained silent, and sensing something was amiss, Du Mingxian's heart skipped a beat. "Do they have some kind of plan?"
"No, no."
"You're obviously lying because you're guilty. You don't even dare to tell the truth to your own family. You're really useless." Du Mingxian was genuinely angry, looking at Ling Xiaomei, who was as stubborn as clay.
What kind of person must have been driven to such a state in that lifetime for someone to commit such a ruthless act of killing?
"Fourth Sister-in-law, I...I'm useless. I will handle the Qian family's affairs well and will not let the family's reputation be damaged."
Du Mingxian had a sudden thought, "You want to hang yourself?"
"how do you know?"
Du Mingxian couldn't hold back and slapped her on the back of the head, yelling, "Are you stupid? You hanged yourself, who are you punishing? Will the Qian family be sad because you died?"
"Don't be silly. You are punishing the people who love you. The people who don't love you will never feel bad. Only your parents and brothers who love you will be sad and upset because of your death."
"How can you do something that hurts your loved ones and pleases your enemies?"
“I…” Ling Xiaomei didn’t know what to say.
"Remember, no matter what, you must live well. You have a family who loves you, and that's enough to make you want to stay in this world. You're not afraid of death, so why worry about your reputation? Your family doesn't care, so why should you care so much?"
As Du Mingxian was scolding, Ling Xiaomei stared intently at one spot, not even blinking. "What's wrong?"
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, is that... is there a dead person ahead?"
Du Mingxian looked up and saw that it really was a blood-soaked person, with blood all over the ground. This must be the person who was chased by the men in black on the way here.
With so much blood loss, he must be dead.
"Don't worry, we didn't kill them."
Ling Xiaomei wasn't scared, but seeing such a bloody scene for the first time made her a little nervous. "Fourth Sister-in-law, let's go down and see, what if he's still alive?"
"With so much blood, he must be dead." Du Mingxian didn't want to save him; saving people was too much trouble.
Save a good person, and then thank yourself later.
What if he saves a bad guy? Or someone might see him in a disheveled state and kill him to silence him; such things happen all the time.
Ling Xiaomei gripped Du Mingxian's arm nervously, her voice trembling, "Fourth Sister-in-law, let's go take a look. If we just go and don't check, I'm afraid I'll regret it forever. If we check and he's really dead, then we can just ignore him, okay?"
Du Mingxian looked at Ling Xiaomei helplessly. Oh well, as long as the girl is happy and doesn't care about reputation or anything like that, there's no harm in her going to see her.
She jumped off the carriage, and Ling Xiaomei nervously followed her off.
Du Mingxian took a few steps forward. The smell of blood was extremely strong. She hadn't smelled this smell in a long time and couldn't stand it for a moment.
She crouched down, reached out and touched it, and... was extremely surprised.
How come he's still not dead?
The man's face was covered in blood, and his features were obscured.
Ling Xiaomei was very nervous and didn't get close, but she still managed to ask, "How is Fourth Sister-in-law?"
Du Mingxian didn't want to save him, but after going back and forth like this, she couldn't save him the first time, and the second time he was blocking her way but still didn't die, which must be fate. "He's not dead, come and help me lift him into the car."
"well."
The two of them worked together to lift the man into the car. Fearing that the man would die, Du Mingxian didn't want all her hard work to be in vain, so she simply fed him some spiritual spring water, applied some hemostatic medicine, bandaged his wounds, and then drove home.
Before leaving, she also cleaned up the scene briefly.
Back home, Du Mingxian didn't rush to carry the person away; instead, she went to find Ling Silang first.
“I rescued someone on the way to the Qian family’s house. I saw him, but I didn’t pay attention to him at the time. When I came back, the person was lying on the road. I couldn’t avoid seeing him because he was blocking the way.”
Ling Silang was surprised. "Is the person still alive?"
"Alive."
“Since we’ve saved him, it must be fate. Have Granny Zhao prepare a room, and I’ll go call Father so we can carry him inside together.”
"it is good."
Since it was about saving a life, Du Mingxian went back to her room, took out some high-quality hemostatic medicine from her spatial storage, and also took two anti-inflammatory pills before going to the room where the man had been taken in.
Ling's father went out, and Ling Silang was alone.
Du Mingxian handed him the pills, saying, "Feed him these first."
Without asking a single question, Ling Silang directly stuffed the medicine into the man's mouth and fed him some water. The process was difficult, but fortunately, the medicine was successfully administered.
Granny Zhao brought water over, and Du Mingxian applied it to Ling Silang's external wounds. "He has many external injuries all over his body. Take good care of them and then decide whether to call a doctor based on the situation."
"it is good."
As Du Mingxian left the courtyard, she heard Ling's mother and Ling Xiaomei crying from the main room. Instead of going in, she went around to the backyard and twisted the neck of the chicken that had been tied up.
Granny Zhao had just boiled some water, so she immediately started preparing the chicken.
When Granny Zhao came out of the house after finishing her work, she saw Du Mingxian busy by herself and became extremely nervous. "Fourth Madam, this old servant is all you need to do."
"I'll cook this chicken today, so don't worry. I'll cook when I have some free time."
"Yes."
"Could you prepare some side dishes for me?"
"Yes."
Lunch was chicken. After eating, Du Mingxian saw that it was still early and planned to go to the county. However, before leaving, she went to the house of the person she had rescued, and went with Ling Silang.
"How is this person? Should I go to the county to get a doctor to take a look?"
"No need. Just ask the town doctor to come over this afternoon. He's a familiar doctor and won't say anything out of line. He has a knife on him, so you can tell he has enemies behind him and is not someone to mess with."
Du Mingxian nodded in agreement, glanced at the man, and turned to leave. Suddenly, she stopped and looked back at the man on the bed. She was shocked. It was him.
