Chapter 156 Rescue
Chu Ci turned to look at Shui Juren's wife, "How can you treat your husband like this? You're just protecting your son! For so many years, you haven't shown any sign of it at all?"
Shui Juren's face flushed, and his wife Nian Niang sighed: "Men are generous."
This is not a big heart, it is clearly a lack of heart. Or to be more direct, as a vested interest, he is just playing dumb.
Thinking of this, Chu Ci directly told them the cruel truth, so that Mr. Shui would not hinder their actions in the name of his sister.
"So, Mr. Shui didn't know that Ding Jianzhou let your sister give birth frequently in order to make it easier for her to kill her."
Mr. Shui looked bewildered.
Nian Niang couldn't stand it any longer. "He only cares about reading books of sages and has no interest in the gossip of the neighbors!"
Shui Juren's attitude towards these things made Nian Niang feel helpless and dissatisfied. She had been silently protecting her husband, but her husband did not seem to appreciate it.
So she tickled him a little.
Chu Ci:......
Therefore, Shui Juren knew about both the "pre-marital training" and the "women's college", but he looked down on what they did.
Chu Ci was speechless at Shui Juren's behavior. He felt that Shui Juren was too pedantic and stubborn.
"Mr. Shui, you didn't know about it before, but now you know. What do you plan to do? You don't want your sister to endure all this for the sake of our parents?" Chu Ci asked, staring at Mr. Shui.
Shui Juren's wives Nian Niang, Qianxue, Qianyan, as well as Lu Yu who was dragged in to fill in the gaps and play the sympathetic role, all wanted to know his answer.
Instantly, Shui Juren felt as if he were in a pack of wolves, his hair stood on end, his heart was beating like a drum, sweat broke out on his forehead, and his throat was tight, as if being strangled by an invisible hand.
He felt extremely nervous and frightened and didn't know how to answer.
His mind was in a mess, with various thoughts intertwined and entangled, making it difficult for him to make a decision.
He wanted to avoid the question, to hide, to pretend he knew nothing.
But he also understood that if he gave an inappropriate answer, his wife might not defend him as she did before.
Shui Juren closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision: "I...I want my sister to divorce me."
Although this decision was influenced by many external factors, his answer ultimately made those present feel relieved.
However, at this moment, a little boy's cry came from the yard. "Grandpa, grandma, save mom. Please save mom."
Before Mr. Shui could react, his wife Nian Niang had already noticed something was wrong. She shouted "Chong'er!" and rushed out of the room.
[Is it what they thought?] Turning back, Shui Juren had slumped in his chair. Chu Ci rolled his eyes and followed him out.
Seeing this, Qianxue, Qianyan and Luyu naturally followed closely.
However, even though Chu Ci had thought the situation would be bad, he never expected the Ding family to be so blatant.
"Aunt, my mother is bleeding a lot. But my grandparents won't let me call a doctor for her. Please, save my mother..."
If Chu Ci's guess is correct, the little boy kneeling and crying at Nian Niang's feet should be the child of Shui Juren's sister.
And Shui Juren's sister, Ding Jianzhou's current wife, is on the verge of death at this moment.
Mr. Shui collapsed to the ground, but his parents tried to stop their daughter-in-law from rescuing him.
Chu Ci was so angry that he slashed the two elders of the Shui family with his sword, knocking them unconscious. Turning around, the others looked as if they had seen a ghost. Chu Ci said directly: "Qianxue, Qianyan, go and drag Mr. Shui out. Let's go save him——"
The two words "save people" seemed to turn on a switch for everyone.
Qianyan and Qianxue responded instantly: "Let's go catch him."
Nian Niang also regained consciousness and said, "I'll go get a doctor."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yu stood up and said, "I'll go get the doctor. Madam Shui, please take a look at what needs to be packed. You can go ahead."
After saying that, she turned and ran out the door.
Nian Niang looked at Lu Yu gratefully, and then began to pack up busily. She prepared some clean cloth and hot water in case of emergency.
Chu Ci was dividing his attention between two things. On the one hand, he asked Chong'er for more information, and on the other hand, he quickly transferred all the items in the space that could be used or might be used into the small bag he carried with him.
They moved extremely quickly and gathered in the yard in just a few minutes.
At this moment, although Shui Juren's body was weak, he was able to walk on his own and his brain was working again. "Please wait a moment, I will find someone to help me pass a message back to the village."
Mr. Shui wanted to take the opportunity to make a big deal out of this, which was exactly what Chu Ci wanted.
Seeing Shui Juren holding the wall with his hands and moving slowly, Chu Ci asked directly: "Do you need help?"
Shui Juren was startled when he heard this. It was obvious that Qianxue and Qianyan had not left a good impression on him just now, but he also understood that time was of the essence now. "Then I'll trouble you."
As soon as Shui Juren finished speaking, Chu Ci gathered his energy in his hands and suddenly grabbed Shui Juren's belt. "Where are you going?"
There were two of them before, but now Chu Ci can easily lift him up with one hand, and the key is that it is easier than the two girls before.
Mr. Shui was so frightened that he could not speak a word and could only point his finger in the direction.
In this way, Shui Juren was lifted up by Chu Ci, his feet almost off the ground, his whole body swaying in the air, and he came to the gate of the neighbor's house.
Chu Ci knocked on the door for Shui Juren and returned to Shui Juren's courtyard at an extremely fast speed.
Mr. Shui: That was a close call. I managed to save my image.
After a moment, a young voice rang out, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Shui Juren next door." Shui Juren was extremely cowardly in front of Chu Ci, but he was still quite majestic in front of others.
As soon as the voice fell, the wooden door creaked open. A boy of about sixteen or seventeen walked out. "Uncle Shui, you..."
Mr. Shui didn't care about being polite at this moment, and hurriedly said: "Zewen, my sister is in trouble. I'm worried that if I go too late, her life will be in danger. Please help me go to the village."
Shui Zewen and Shui Juren were from the same village. Shui Zewen was also aware of the situation of Shui Juren's sister and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
He agreed without hesitation. "Okay, is there anything else I can do? Do you have enough money? Have you hired a doctor?"
If Chu Ci were here, he would definitely let Shui Juren take a good look at him, saying that this young man is more thoughtful than Shui Juren.
Of course, this is not reality.
The reality is that Shui Juren has to save face, even if he doesn't know. He still said stubbornly: "That's enough, your aunt has even found a carriage."
