Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 516

Chapter 516: Internal Bleeding
Doctor Xie stood on the door and said with a frown, “In my long life, this is the first time I have seen a mother use her daughter’s life as a bargaining chip to make money.”

After speaking, he sneered and added, “Life in the village is more interesting than I imagined. I can even see beasts wearing human skin. What a rare sight!”

Hearing his words, Chen Lina’s mother frowned and said, “Doctor Xie, this is my family’s private matter. It is not your turn to make a remark.”

Doctor Xie narrowed his eyes and said, “In that case, take your family and get out of my house! You are causing trouble in my house and you dare to teach me what to do?”

Although Chen Lina’s mother was not happy with his words, she still held back her anger. Doctor Xie is the only doctor in the entire brigade. If she offended him, he might not be willing to treat them in the future.

Feeling the tense atmosphere, Li Chenmo asked, “Aunt Li, what happened?”

“Nephew, I beg you. Please save my granddaughter. Please take her to the hospital.” Aunt Li cried.

Looking at Aunt Li who was busy crying without explaining, Doctor Xie snorted and said, “In addition to her swollen eyes and broken nose, the little girl also suffered a concussion.”

“Ah, by the way, her right wrist, left leg, and three ribs are also broken. If she doesn’t go to the hospital, she will die from internal bleeding. She can only last for five hours at most,” he added.

Everyone, including the Chen family, opened their eyes wide and were shocked when they heard Doctor Xie’s words. They didn’t expect Da Niu’s injury to be so serious. The way they looked at Chen Lina suddenly changed. Some villagers even distanced themselves from the Chen family with fear.

Only Chen Lina stood there calmly and said, “So what? She is just a girl. If she dies, then she dies.”

After Doctor Xie came to Xie Village, he never wanted to bother with their matters. But today, Chen Lina finally angered him with words for the first time. Her words stung the most painful part of his heart, reminding him of what happened to his daughter. He went to the well, picked up the wooden basin, walked toward Chen Lina and splashed the water on her face.

Being splashed by the cold water, Chen Lina’s face instantly turned pale, and she screamed, “Ahh, what are you doing?!”

“Doctor Xie, what do you think you are doing?!” Chen Lina’s mother asked angrily.

Doctor Xie glared at Chen Lina, and said coldly, “You are someone else’s daughter too, how can you treat your daughter like this? Since you don’t want this daughter, then I will accept her!”

Everyone gasped when they heard his words.

After a while, Chen Lina’s mother said, “You can’t take her away! She is the granddaughter of my Chen family. If you…”

Before she could finish her words, Doctor Xie interrupted her, “I don’t care what you say. From today onward, Da Niu is my granddaughter.”

Chen Lina’s mother was speechless by his unreasonable words and pointed at him angrily, “You are unreasonable!”

Doctor Xie ignored her, looked at Aunt Li, and asked, “Sister-in-law, you are Da Niu’s grandmother. I want to adopt her. Do you agree?”

Aunt Li knew that given their family’s situation, it was impossible to protect her granddaughter from Chen Lina’s abuse. Only someone more unreasonable than her can deal with her, and this person is Doctor Xie.

After considering the pros and cons, Aunt Li nodded and said, “Thank you, Doctor Xie. My Li family agrees!”

After listening to her words, Doctor Xie turned to look at everyone and said, “Since the Li family has agreed, please everyone testify for me. As her grandfather, I have the right to interfere in her affairs. Therefore, I will send her to the hospital. If anyone dares to block my way, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at Li Chenmo and said, “Nephew Li, help me carry my granddaughter.”

Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu looked at each other for a moment, and then followed Doctor Xie into the house.

Because Da Niu’s condition was serious, they borrowed a tractor from Han Yuheng and rushed to the hospital while Shitou was entrusted to the Lu family.

It took them forty minutes to get to the hospital. When the nurses and guards saw Da Niu was covered in blood, they quickly sent her to the emergency room.

Before leaving, Aunt Li said, “Nephew Zhang, thank you for helping us.”

“Aunt Li, don’t worry, it’s just a small thing.” Zhang Ermu said politely.

Nodding to him, Doctor Xie and Aunt Li quickly followed the nurses. Not long after, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu arrived on a bicycle.

Seeing that Zhang Ermu had left, the two parked the bicycle and walked to the emergency room. Under normal circumstances, if a villager borrows a tractor, the person driving the tractor is Han Yuheng. But today he was away, so they went to the deputy leader to borrow a tractor.

Since the deputy leader was very busy and no one was willing to drive the tractor to the county seat, Zhang Ermu was asked to help. Fortunately, he had some free time and readily agreed.

When they arrived at the emergency room, they saw Aunt Li sitting on the ground in a daze, and Doctor Xie’s brows were furrowed.

“Doctor Xie, what’s going on?” Lu Jueyu asked.

Doctor Xie held the document in his hand and made a decision. He looked at Li Chenmo and said, “Nephew Li, Da Niu’s lung is bleeding because it was stabbed by her broken rib. She needs surgery as soon as possible. But, I don’t have enough money with me now. Can I borrow some money from you first?”

Hearing this, Li Chenmo nodded and said, “Of course. Doctor Xie, Aunt Li, don’t worry, we will go pay the fee first.”
