"Money is hard to discuss?"
Zhao Tianlei glanced at him, "Just say it’s borrowed from me—the rooms will still be brick houses, but the kitchen and storeroom can be made of adobe."
The latter thought about it and felt it was feasible.
After the end of the workday, everyone went back to their homes.
"Xiao He, Xiao He, your little sister has had an accident."
Zhao Tianhe had just arrived home when he heard his mother say anxiously.
Little Aunt Zhao immediately said, "I heard your little sister was beaten up; she’s in the hospital now. Your father went to find your uncle. We must hurry to town."
Little Aunt Zhao was extremely anxious, having found out about the incident only after finishing work.
"Your brother went to hitch the ox cart."
"Why bother with an ox cart? I’m going to ask Third Brother to drive a tractor. After we see little sister, we’ll go to the Chen Family. They dare to strike our little sister, showing no respect for the men in our Zhao Family."
Zhao Tianhe dropped this line and ran towards the Zhao Family’s place.
"Third Brother, Third Brother..."
Zhao Tianlei was just eating his meal when he suddenly heard Zhao Tianhe’s anxious voice and looked up.
"My little sister was beaten and hospitalized by the Chen Family."
Upon hearing this, everyone at the dinner table was stunned.
Yun Xiaoxiao had seen that frail, younger little aunt next door during the New Year period.
"I’ll go check on her." Even though Zhao Tianlei was somewhat irresponsible, he couldn’t ignore his cousin’s predicament.
"Right, but be mindful."
And it landed someone in the hospital.
This was a serious matter.
As Zhao Tianhe and Zhao Tianlei left the house, Da Bao and Xiao Bao looked toward Yun Xiaoxiao, "Mom, did little aunt have an accident?"
That was a question she really didn’t know how to answer.
"Yes, but let the adults worry about it. You kids don’t need to fret. Just eat your meal, okay?"
The two brothers hurried to Little Uncle Zhao’s house.
Usually, there were some grievances between Zhao Tianhai and Zhao Tianlei, but with their cousin in trouble and hospitalized by the Chen Family, it was different.
After all, when they had trouble last year, their cousin brothers had helped.
Bonded by blood and bone.
"Xiao Yuyu, go call your little aunt." Little Aunt Zhao suddenly remembered that niece-in-law who had beaten Wang Laowu so badly last year; this time, they should include her in the visit to the Chen Family.
Otherwise, the three of them wouldn’t be a match for the few women from the Old Chen Family.
Xiao Yuyu dashed off towards the Zhao Family’s place.
"Little Aunt, Little Aunt..."
Wasn’t that Da Bao and Xiao Bao’s boy Xiao Yuyu?
"Little Aunt, Grandma is calling for you."
She was being called for this matter?
She wasn’t good at fighting.
But since the elders had called.
She felt awkward to refuse.
"Da Bao, Xiao Bao, you guys stay home and behave. Mom might only be back in the afternoon. Remember to lock the door if you go out."
Yun Xiaoxiao then went inside to change into liberation shoes and tied her hair into a bun.
And she carried a bag of snacks, including some egg cakes she had bought.
The tractor had already started, and Little Aunt’s house’s two little girls weren’t called. The entire family went, including Mrs. Zhao and Captain Zhao, along with Zhao Tianxiang and his three brothers, plus Yun Xiaoxiao and Da Shu’s mother.
"Wife, why are you also here?"
"Shitou, your wife is tough."
She even brought some items with her.
When they arrived at the town clinic, they saw Little Sister Zhao lying on the bed, her face not only pale but also devoid of any color.
"Little sister, little sister..."
"I looked around, but didn’t see anyone from the Chen Family."
The clinic doctor, seeing the crowd, quickly informed them of the patient’s condition.
