Chapter 150 I was angry just now and raised the price intentionally
No one expected that Chen would favor Bai Sui'an.
Even Bai Sui'an himself didn't expect it.
Are the attitude changes of people in this era so sudden and unexpected?
Bai Sui'an couldn't figure it out, but Chen's behavior made her calm down a little.
It seems that Chen's heart is not so biased.
Maybe he is a selfish person, but after realizing that the person he cares about doesn't care about him, he will no longer be partial.
"Are you going to piss me off to death?"
Li Quanwang was very angry and rushed over to fight Chen. Because Bai Sui'an was standing in front of Chen, Zhuying immediately went up and captured him.
Ye Lingche said, "Village Chief, you saw it too. He was the one trying to embarrass my wife."
The current situation is obvious to all. It was Li Quanwang who made things difficult for others first. Now that there are so many people present, if he wants to show his power, he has to consider their expressions.
Who can he beat?
The village chief nodded, glanced at Li Quanwang, and said helplessly, "Come on, Quanwang, stop making trouble. Apologize to Lin Che's wife and don't frame others again."
Li Quanwang glared at Chen and Aunt Wang fiercely, and said to Bai Sui'an through gritted teeth: "I was wrong."
"I can't hear it." Ye Lingche answered for Bai Sui'an.
"I said I was wrong!" Li Quanwang shouted, "Are you satisfied?"
Bai Sui'an handed Chen to Aunt Wang before answering Li Quanwang: "I know you were wrong."
The village chief nodded: "Now that we have apologized, the matter is over. Let's all go our separate ways."
"Wait." Ye Lingche said, "If there is no witness to what happened today, or if someone tells a lie, my wife will really be misunderstood because of her frame-up."
"Although he apologized, our family will not reconcile with him. From now on, any benefits we seek for the villagers will have nothing to do with him."
Ye Lingche expressed the position of the whole family, and everyone in the family agreed.
Since Li Quanwang took advantage of Bai Sui'an and blackmailed him, it was impossible for the family to talk to him in a good way again.
Bai Sui'an didn't care how many people were on good terms with him. He didn't like Li Quanwang's behavior and had just been disgusted by him, so he naturally agreed with Ye Lingche's words.
"After all, you are the ones taking the lead, so naturally we should do it according to your wishes." The village chief did not try to persuade him.
When Ye Lingche talked to him this morning, he listed how much wealth the cultivation of medicinal herbs could bring to the village.
Even if Li Quanwang's family cannot get this benefit, if other families get it, the village will be better off than before.
The family was about to leave when Aunt Wang called Bai Sui'an to stop. Although she had already told him not to leave, she still couldn't help but beg him.
She asked Bai Sui'an to help her help Chen into the house. Ye Lingche and others were waiting outside. There were only three people in the house. Aunt Wang said, "Sui'an, you can see that my sister-in-law has changed now. Can you give her the medicine again?
I know you're angry that she doesn't care about her own health. Just now, you also noticed that she couldn't help but make trouble for Jackie Chan and the others. Give him another chance. We'll give you the medicine on credit and pay you back slowly in the future."
Without medication, Chen's wound healed slowly and it would be difficult to stop the bleeding again.
"What do you say? Did you help to testify for the medicine?" Bai Sui'an asked Chen.
"No." Chen said weakly, "I had such an ugly quarrel with you before, and you knew I was seriously injured, but they..."
Chen took a deep breath, looked up at Aunt Wang, and said, "Even though I've made so much trouble, you still care about my life or death. I'm going to die anyway, so why not do some good things?"
There will always be some changes in people before they die, which is why Chen's attitude towards Bai Sui'an changed.
"We're all going to die anyway, so what's the point of leaving the money to them? It's better to use it to buy medicine. How much money can't a person earn while he's still alive?" Bai Sui'an said.
"It's still too much..." Chen said, "If I don't have any money, and his father and father-in-law can't keep the money, it will be difficult for Long'er to continue his studies."
"They are so stingy and yet they can't keep the money?"
Bai Sui'an couldn't believe it. He thought that their family didn't hire a doctor for Chen in order to save money, but it turned out that they didn't have the money?
Aunt Wang explained, "My father-in-law and my eldest brother are picky eaters. They want good food and love to drink. We don't have much harvest from the land, there are many people in the family, and we have to pay taxes... It's really hard to save money."
They all saved their own money by secretly doing other work, but Chen was used to being lazy, so she probably didn't save much money.
"Then let's buy it on credit. I'll help you with some of the silver. How about a tael?"
In fact, the medicine is not as expensive as Bai Sui'an said. She raised the price just because she didn't want them to think that the medicine can be resold at will.
"One, one ounce?" Aunt Wang was surprised. "That's too much for us..."
"Consider it her fault. It's her life after all." Bai Sui'an raised his chin and pointed at Chen. "If you were alive, your son could still go to school. If you were really gone, would Li Quanwang care about your son?"
Bai Sui'an didn't talk about Li Chenglong's academic qualifications. After all, she knew that the village teacher was incompetent, and she could also understand Chen's desire for her son to become a successful person. The child was only in his teens and could still be saved.
"You don't have to rely on a tutor for education. Your son must have learned a lot of words after studying for a few years, right? I'm afraid he's absorbed all the knowledge that Li You has. If he finds another tutor, there are private schools in town. If he can write well, he can help copy books to earn money to supplement his tuition. He is still counting on you to help him pass the imperial examination. Don't give up so easily."
Chen didn't understand this either. After all, no one had ever told her about this method. But after hearing what Bai Sui'an said, she felt that Bai Sui'an was right.
"Then...then I'll buy the medicine. It's ten taels. I'll pay you back slowly. You don't need to pay me back."
Even at this point, Chen still had her own stubbornness.
She used to bully others, but now she is being helped again and again, and she no longer has the face to take advantage of them.
Bai Sui'an immediately took out the medicine from the medicine box: "One ounce is enough, I'll give you the medicine now."
"Didn't you say the medicine was gone?" asked Aunt Wang.
Bai Sui'an said bluntly: "I was just throwing a tantrum and deliberately raised the price."
Hearing this, the two sisters-in-law couldn't help but laugh.
Aunt Wang smiled innocently: "Fortunately, you were just throwing a tantrum. We just managed to coax you into submission, and your life was saved."
It was very painful when applying the medicine, but Chen gritted her teeth and endured it without crying out in pain.
First use other medicine to stop Chen's bleeding, then Bai Suian put the medicine away and take out another medicine.
"Don't worry about the rope around the wound. Once the wound has scabbed over, use this medicine three times a day, and the rope will disappear on its own."
This time, Bai Sui'an gave more detailed instructions in front of Chen, so that she would not be unaware and have the sewing thread cut.
"Thank you." Chen thanked him.
Aunt Wang helped take the medicine: "Okay, I will listen to you and apply the medicine to her."
Ye Lingche was still waiting outside. Bai Sui'an was about to leave after giving him instructions: "Don't give this medicine to anyone else. Lock the door when you're not around. You can't bother with this injury anymore. You can see them after you've recovered."
