Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 31: The Crime of Gender 31
In the sa village, where you see each other every day, if there’s an issue, everyone gives a bit of face. Especially in a life-and-death matter like this, everyone is very understanding and agreed to let Qin Shuangshuang use the cart first, valuing life above all.
Two villagers who had just helped put out a fire curiously asked Qin Shuangshuang, "Could it be your Eldest Lady who set the house on fire? But your family didn’t suffer any big loss, so why is the beating so severe?"
Qin Shuangshuang resented Mr. Qin and Little Chen for their harshness, and also resented Qin the Third for shirking responsibility and causing trouble. Relying on her young age, she thoughtlessly replied without hiding the family’s sha, "It wasn’t Eldest Sister who set the fire, it was Si Lang and Wulang who did it.
Third Uncle blad Eldest Sister for not watching Si Lang and Wulang, which led them to set the house on fire. In anger, Big Uncle kicked Eldest Sister flying, and Big Aunt even wanted to beat Eldest Sister to death!
Eldest Sister coughed up blood and is now unconscious. I have no money and brought so smoked at to use as a consultation fee to invite a doctor. I don’t know if the doctor will co." As she spoke, Qin Shuangshuang wiped her tears with her small hands, looking pitiful and worried!
After Qin Shuangshuang finished speaking, Old He had already hitched up the cart. He returned the smoked at to Qin Shuangshuang and said cheerfully, "Since it’s a matter of life and death, I should pull you this ti. Keep the at to pay the doctor, get on quickly, I’ll take you to fetch the doctor. Don’t underestimate my ox cart; it runs quite fast, so hold on tight."
Old He, though not of the Qin surna, got along well in this village full of Qin family mbers, thanks to his straightforward and generous nature!
Qin Shuangshuang quickly thanked him and got on the cart. Although Old He returned the at to her, she rembered this favor and planned to repay it in the future.
Old He flicked his whip in the air, making a crisp sound, and said to the old ox pulling the cart, "Hey, the young girl is waiting to fetch a doctor to save a life. Give it your all and hurry up today!"
The old ox, well-fed and robust by Old He, seed to understand him, lifted its head, and mooed, as if responding. It then scraped the ground with its hooves and started pulling the cart at a surprisingly fast pace!
Seeing Qin Shuangshuang leaving with the smoked at on the cart, the waiting villagers, bored, began to gossip.
"This household has such a bizarre family culture. The grandma almost chopped her granddaughter to death, and the parents are ready to beat their daughter to death. And these two children haven’t even done anything wrong! The Eldest Lady and Second Lady are truly pitiful, suffering such abuse at a young age!"
A villager shook his head, sighing over the recent events in the Qin family. It was rare to see such heartless parents and grandmother in this world.
"Ultimately, it’s all due to the preference for boys over girls. The whole family disregards girls and abuses them recklessly. Qin the Third likes causing trouble all day. All the neighbors near him in the village know about it. An adult man causing trouble at ho every day and bullying his sister-in-law, what an achievent!"
The speaker, though favoring boys over girls, did not dislike girls and treated his daughters well.
"With this family, it’s best to keep your distance, never get too close, and definitely don’t beco relatives!"
After so gossip, everyone unanimously concluded not to closely associate or form family ties with such a family. Mr. Qin was unaware that the thing he feared most had already happened. In the future, it would be difficult for the Qin family’s grandchildren to find brides!
When Qin Shuangshuang arrived in town by ox cart at the doctor who treated her last ti, he was performing acupuncture on a patient.
The doctor, rembering Qin Shuangshuang, was surprised to see her carrying a lot of smoked at and smiled, "Why have you co to so late, little girl? Is there sothing wrong with your health? Why is there no adult with you?"
Qin Shuangshuang set down the smoked at and anxiously said, "Doctor Grandpa, I’m here for your help. My Eldest Sister was kicked by Big Uncle and coughed up blood. She’s still unconscious, and I have no money, so I brought so at as a consultation fee. Doctor Grandpa, please co with !"
The doctor, a man of dical ethics, imdiately said upon hearing it was to save a life, "Don’t worry, I’ll co with you right away!" He hurriedly called the store’s assistant for his dical kit and instructed soone to fetch the young proprietor from the back to watch the acupuncture patient.
Nearby patients, hearing it was a life-or-death matter, graciously allowed the doctor to leave with Qin Shuangshuang, including the one being given acupuncture.
When Qin Shuangshuang brought the doctor ho, Mrs. Bai was anxiously watching over the Eldest Lady. Upon seeing him, she said, "The Eldest Lady coughed up blood twice more and remains unconscious. Please take a look, is she alright?"
The doctor hurried to the bedside, took the Eldest Lady’s pulse, then pried open her mouth to examine carefully before saying, "Indeed, her internal organs are injured, but not too serious and will not threaten her life. I will prescribe dicine for her to take for a month and then carefully nourish her health for half a year, and she will recover. Rember, during her recovery, she should not work, and her diet should include at least one al with at every three to four days. If not at, then at least two eggs to avoid any future issues!"
In fact, what the doctor suggested—having at every three to four days—could only barely suffice for maintaining health. Ideally, like Qin Shuangshuang during her recovery, one should have at every day. However, the doctor also knew that farr families rarely ate at every day, often only a few tis a year.
Qin Shuangshuang and Mrs. Bai carefully noted the doctor’s instructions in their hearts, with Qin Shuangshuang determined to ensure the Eldest Lady’s full recovery, never letting her work before she healed.
"Doctor, is the Eldest Lady really alright? She was coughing up so much blood before; it looked really frightening!" Mrs. Bai still had her concerns.
The doctor stroked his white goatee and smiled, "No worries. The Eldest Lady coughed up blood because when she was kicked, she bit the root of her tongue. As she was unconscious, the blood flowed into her stomach. The blood’s sll naturally causes vomiting. Her internal organs weren’t ruptured; there’s nothing to worry about."
After examining her and leaving a prescription, the doctor was ready to go. When Qin Shuangshuang sent him back to the village entrance, she happened to et Old He returning after taking the villagers to town. Seeing the doctor, Old He enthusiastically drove the ox cart to give the doctor a ride, for which Qin Shuangshuang thanked him profusely.
When Qin Shuangshuang returned, she saw the lights in the main house were still on, with several shadows flickering against the window paper. Thinking for a mont, she turned her steps toward the main house, planning to ask for the Eldest Lady’s dical expenses.
