Chapter 154 - 154: Unconvinced
Chu Lin reached out and held Chu Jin’s shoulder. He looked at him and asked seriously, “Lil’ Jin, did Tang Bao really push you?”
“He pushed me. Not only did he push me, but he also snatched my Zhuge Lock. My Zhuge Lock is the most unique in the world. How could I be willing to give it to that idiot? It’s all my fault for being too thin. I fell into the river after being pushed twice. “Chu Jin was still a little angry.
Chu Lin felt relieved when he saw the indignant look on his face. As for what the child had said, he would probably have to tell Chu Heng.
He was an uncle after all. He could not help this child seek justice.
Of course, this was also the reason why Chu Heng was not far from home.
Moreover, it was perfectly justifiable for Chu Heng to go and settle scores with the Tang family.
Chu Lin knew that children did not need to know these things, so he naturally would not say it.
He comforted him a little longer before coming out of the room.
“Mother, should we inform Third Brother about this?” Chu Lin walked to the kitchen door and asked.
Considering Ye Muyu’s condition, Madam Liu was also worried. She did not want to disturb her son’s study, but she could not hide such a big matter from him. “Of course, we have to inform him.”
“Drive the ox cart to the county.” Madam Liu finally decided.
When Madam Zhang heard that Madam Chu had asked her husband to go, she was initially not very willing. However, when she saw the joy on her husband’s face and followed Chu Lin to the entrance of the courtyard, she asked in a low voice, “Be careful. Don’t delay and come back early.”
“Got it.” Chu Lin did not have a mule cart at home, so he always wanted to buy a means of transportation back home. Unfortunately, he did not have any extra silver in his hands.
Now that he finally had an ox cart, it was enough for him to be happy for a long time. As for Madam Zhang’s consideration of benefits, he didn’t care at all.
After sending Chu Lin off, Madam Zhang became even more enthusiastic.
Her thoughts were very simple. This time, whether it was Ye Muyu or Chu Jin, it was her husband who took the lead to save them. Now, she was still taking the lead to take care of them.
At that time, with Third Brother’s temper, he would definitely give her a gift of thanks.
After receiving the gift, she could sell it for money to save for Qingxiang’s dowry.
Doctor Lu arrived shortly after.
After Doctor Lu examined Ye Muyu, his expression turned serious. “Lady Ye’s body is not good to begin with, and now she has suffered from a severe cold. I’ll prescribe a few medicines first. If she can wake up, she’ll be fine.”
Madam Liu’s brows furrowed slightly. She could hear the meaning behind Doctor Lu’s words, and her mood became somewhat heavy.
Madam Zhang and Madam Wang were country bumpkins. Hearing that Ye Muyu would be fine after waking up, they were relieved. Who would have thought that Doctor Lu himself was not sure if Ye Muyu would wake up?
In the county…
Chu Lin arrived at the county an hour later.
He rushed to the school gate. “Uncle Liu, help me call Chu Heng. There’s an emergency at home. I’m sorry.”
As Chu Lin spoke, he took out a few copper coins from his waist and handed them to Uncle Liu.
It was the first time Uncle Liu had seen the Chu family so anxious. The Chu family often came to look for Chu Heng, so he was already used to it.
Without delay, he went straight to the school and called Chu Heng out.
Chu Lin saw Chu Heng and pulled him away. “Third Brother, something happened at home. Lil’ Jin was pushed into the river after school today. Third Sister-in-law is also unconscious now because she saved Lil’ Jin. When I left, Lil’ Jin woke up.”
“What did you say? Something happened to Madam Ye?” Chu Heng was stunned for a moment. He had never thought of this possibility.
“Take me back. Tell me the details on the way..”
