Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 195
Chapter 195: Fainted
Sowing begins as soon as plowing is over, so they don’t have days off. Afterward, they need to harvest the crops in the summer.
During the fall and winter, they let the land rest, fertilize, and prepare for next year’s planting. As for the villagers, they plant some winter vegetables in autumn and harvest them in late winter. These vegetables will be pickled and eaten for a year.
On the way home, Lu Jueyu counted the time and thought that it would be good if her husband started reviewing the junior high school and high school courses. Since there is no culinary major in this era, she does not plan to take the college entrance examination. Instead, she wanted her husband to take the exam.
As for herself, she would start doing business as soon as the economic reforms began. Her dream is to own her own chain of restaurants across the country. It would be great if her restaurant could develop into a well-known Michelin-star restaurant. With her and her husband’s combined efforts, she was sure their business would flourish. She couldn’t help but feel happy when she thought about that day.
When she was ten meters away from her house, Lu Jueyu saw someone peeking into her house from the fence. Looking at the figure of the woman, she called, “Aunt Li?”
Hearing her voice, Aunt Li turned around and said, “Jueyu, you are finally home.”
Lu Jueyu looked at her anxious look and asked, “Aunt Li, what’s wrong? What brought you here? Shouldn’t you be working in the fields now?”
“I was working just now but your second brother-in-law’s wife suddenly fainted and there was no one at her home. We couldn’t find her husband, so we came to find you.” Aunt Li said.
“Aunt Li, are you saying that Jiao Siyu fainted?”
“That’s right ah! Come with me, we took her to Doctor Xie’s house, but she refused to receive treatment and said she was not sick.” Aunt Li said as she led the way.
Lu Jueyu was startled by the sudden situation. She didn’t know why Aunt Li came to find her, instead of going to find Father Li as Jiao Siyu’s father-in-law, or Zhang Dongmei, who was the Li family’s eldest daughter-in-law. What she didn’t know was that it was because Jiao Siyu asked Aunt Li to come to her, not other members of the Li family.
They walked quickly and arrived at Doctor Xie’s house not long after. As soon as she entered the room, she heard Doctor Xie’s angry voice, “Your body is already like this and you still refuse to go to the hospital. If you want to die, go find another place. Don’t die in my house!”
“You damn old man, are you cursing me to death?” Jiao Siyu asked angrily.
Lu Jueyu frowned when she heard her rude words. When she entered the room, Doctor Xie looked at her and said angrily, “Girl, it’s good that you are finally here. Take this person out of my house. Even if you beg me, I won’t treat her.”
“Doctor Xie, please calm down. I will take her home and come to apologize to you another day.” Lu Jueyu said and walked to the bamboo bed.
Seeing Jiao Siyu’s pale face, she frowned and asked, “Second sister-in-law, if you feel unwell, you should go to the hospital. Is it fun to cause trouble for others?”
Jiao Siyu looked at Lu Jueyu and said, “You said you would take me to the hospital before. Now, I want to go. But first, I have to tell you that you are the one who has to pay the hospital fee.”
Lu Jueyu thought her words were funny and laughed.
Seeing her suddenly laughing, Jiao Siyu frowned and asked, “Why are you laughing?”
After laughing for a while, Lu Jueyu looked at her and said coldly, “Jiao Siyu, who do you think you are? Do you think you can order me around as you please just because I’m giving you a face? I did offer to take you to the hospital before because I pity you for being sick. I’m not begging you to go to the hospital. Your health has nothing to do with me. It’s you and your husband’s responsibility.”
She looked at Jiao Siyu coldly and added, “Since you are so powerful, why do you need my help? Besides, is this the way someone asks for help? You are too arrogant and look down on others. Since you rejected my offer before, the offer is no longer valid. You should go to your husband and ask him to pay for your hospital bills.”
Hearing her words, Jiao Siyu suddenly panicked. She could feel something was wrong with her body. Just now when she went to see Zhang Dongmei to ask for lunch, she felt dizzy and fainted. When she woke up, her nose felt hot and she had a nosebleed. Although Doctor Xie used acupuncture to stop the bleeding, she still felt dizzy and nauseous. The red rashes and bruises on her body also increased every day.
“No, you said you would pay my hospital bills. You can’t take back your words!” she said in panic.
“Yes, that’s what I said before. But instead of going to the hospital, you ask me to give you meat. I gave you meat and other food. So, it’s already counted as I fulfill my words.” Lu Jueyu said.
“But I..”
“Jiao Siyu, although I treat you politely and may look weak, I am not a person who is easily bullied. I don’t like your attitude, so I won’t help you. If you need help from others, you should be polite when you ask. You should have the right attitude. I am not your mother, nor your father, so I will not give way to you at will.” Lu Jueyu said calmly.
After saying that, she stood there with her arms folded, waiting for Jiao Siyu’s decision. She wouldn’t mind helping her if she changed her attitude. But if she continued with such an arrogant attitude, she would not help her. She was tired of Jiao Siyu’s arrogance and belief that she had the right to have everything.
