Chapter 4: Wrestling

The family was busy putting the radishes in the cellar in the morning and washing the cabbage, and in the afternoon they were going to start making spicy cabbage. Time is very tight, because there are still ten days to go before the New Year, this year Li Xiao and her father will bring her aunt and sister back for the New Year, and she has to prepare a lot of New Year's goods.

In the afternoon, the family was busy, and someone outside called Li Gen away in a hurry, saying that the pillar uncle in the same village had fallen and asked him to help take a look.

When he was young, Li Gen was an apprentice in a well-known pharmacy in the city, and later returned to his hometown to become a barefoot doctor when there was war everywhere.

The mother-in-law and grandson worked until dark to finish it, and when the meal was ready, the two of them sat at the table and baked the fire and waited for Li Gen to come back and eat together. It wasn't until nearly eight o'clock that Li Gen came back with a cold air

"Grandpa, why is it so late, have you eaten" Li Xiao hurriedly moved a chair over, and Xu Hong also went to get an iron basin mixed with hot water to soak his hands.

"The family is in a hurry, and they haven't cooked yet. Just get me something to deal with."

"Xiaoxiao and I haven't eaten yet, so I'm waiting for you"

"What are you waiting for me to do, it's so late, the child must be hungry," Li Gen felt distressed

"Grandpa, I'll go to the pot and bring the dishes, let's eat first" Li Xiao and Xu Hong brought the hot food in the pot to the table, and the family ate the belated dinner.

After tidying up, the family talked about the afternoon around the fire

"Grandpa, what's wrong with Uncle Zhu, is there anything wrong?"

"Eh, your Uncle Zhu may only be in the past few days," Li Gen shook his head

"What, how can this be, didn't you say you just fell?" Xu Hong stood up suddenly, and Li Xiao was also very surprised, you must know that in her impression, Uncle Zhuzi is in good health.

"It's all about Shi Shi and his daughter-in-law," without waiting for Xu Hong and Li Xiao to continue asking, they told the story in detail

Uncle Zhuzi's wife left early, and he worked hard to pull his son up and marry him a daughter-in-law. But this daughter-in-law was injured because she gave birth to her grandson Xiaoshan, so she didn't stay up for two years and went. Stone fell in love with a beautiful widow in a neighboring village with a daughter, Uncle Zhu originally disagreed, thinking that this widow did not look like a person who could live, but the usually cowardly and timid stone, with an iron heart to marry this widow, had no choice but his son could only agree. The woman was fine at first, although she was a little tired and lazy, but when she gave birth to a son the next year, everything changed. The clothes are not washed, the food is not cooked, and Xiaoshan is even more beaten and scolded. The stone doesn't care, and he obeys his daughter-in-law's words.

How can the husband manage his daughter-in-law well, he can't control it anymore. The old man always protects his eldest grandson when he sees his pitiful grandson, and he always secretly buys something to eat in private.

The reason for this today is that the old man looks like it's almost the New Year, and the eldest grandson doesn't have a single piece of clothing that can be seen. went to the town and pulled a piece of fabric and planned to ask someone to help make a dress for the New Year, but the stone daughter-in-law saw it and made a fuss. In the pushing, the old man was pushed down, and he also knocked his head, and he couldn't get up from lying on the ground at that time.

Li Gen carefully examined Uncle Zhuzi, and found that there might be blood stasis in his head, and there was no way with his existing technology, so he suggested that the old man be sent to the hospital in the town, but Shi and his daughter-in-law did not agree at all, saying that they could not let the old man walk outside, and what could they do if they said this, because the situation of Uncle Zhuzi was indeed not very good, and at this time he was very particular about these things, and his own son did not agree, and no one dared to take this responsibility.

Li Xiao and Xu Hong were also angry and helpless after hearing this, but what could they do if their family was an outsider, they could only sigh a few times, and the old man went to the house the next morning.
