Chapter 34 Life Is Full of Surprises
Liu Cuihua was in a hurry and immediately shouted, "Hurry up! Someone robbed my money! Catch him!"
The old woman was also very anxious, and asked her husband to help chase after the man.
Su Jiujiu and Wu Xiyuan witnessed this scene as soon as they came to the cloth shop.
Su Jiujiu took Wu Xiyuan aside to avoid it, but pretended to inadvertently stretch out one of her feet when the man ran to her...
The man fell down, and those who were chasing behind him came over.
With a large number of people there, Su September dared not let go of Wu Xiyuan's hand. What if he got lost?
She took him to push toward Liu Cuihua and asked, " Mom, what's going on here?"
Liu Cuihua herself was not quite clear. She was just robbed of money for unexplained reasons.
She came forward to grab her money bag and then went back to the cart and asked the old woman what on earth it was?
As soon as she began to ask, the old woman wiped her tears and began to cry.
Liu Cuihua frowned with an unhappy expression. She took out her handkerchief and handed it to the old woman, "Ms, wipe your tears quickly. You're acting as if we bullied you. What's the matter? You just say something!"
The old woman wiped her tears for a long time before stopping crying, "That was my elder son! He is the one who followed his father to collect cotton. It's all his fault to fail to look after the boy carefully, leading to his addiction to opium! Our happy family is totally ruined by him! The little money we saved with great difficulty was also stolen and spent out by him. Now he comes to me for it again! If it were not for my old age and no one would buy me, I am afraid he would take me, his old mother, out for sale!"
Hearing that, Liu Cuihua also showed sympathy for her and sighed, " How many children do you have?"
Pouring out her grievances, the old lady actually calmed down a lot, "I got two sons, and a daughter."
"Then live with the second son and drive out the useless one! You must weigh up the pros and cons. Don't lose another son for the sake of this one." Liu Cuihua said.
Not even good officials can settle family troubles. After talking with her for a while, Liu Cuihua left with the cotton and her two children.
Su Jiuyue followed behind her, walking slower and slower.
Wu Xiyuan was still cheerfully telling his mother about his newly bought books, while Liu Cuihua was looking at him lovingly.There was a happy atmosphere between the mother and son.
Su Jiuyue looked back and felt her feet hurt more...
Biting her lower lip, she edged forward again, step by step through the pain.
After taking a few steps, Wu Xiyuan suddenly found that his wife was missing. He immediately turned back to find her and just saw her biting her lips and frowning.
He then ran back with the bamboo basket on his back, stretched out his hand to hold her, and asked nervously, "Dear, what happened to you?"
Su Jiuyue shook her head, without a word.
At that time, Liu Cuihua also found what was wrong with her. When she thought of the matter happened just now, she then figured it out in a flash, "Was it because that being stepped on just now ?"
At that time, the crowd was very crowded. As a child , of course Su Jiuyue was the weaker party, so she was accidentally stepped on by someone.
She just thought there was nothing wrong, but now she just didn't know why, it was stinging.
Liu Cuihua reached out to take down the bamboo basket on Wu Xiyuan's back and said to him, "Xiyuan, carry your wife on your back. Let's go to see the doctor."
Having spent more than one hundred COINs, of course Su Jiuyue was reluctant to (spend money seeing the doctor). So she shook her head immediately,"No need, mum, it's just being trampled. It's okay. I don't need to see a doctor."
Liu cuihua could not persuade her, so she went to the pharmacy to buy a bottle of medicinal liquor for her and then took them to dinner at a small restaurant in town.
