744 Shorten One’s Lifespan

Seeing that Zhao Liang was so stubborn, Qiao Zhuang could only place all his hopes on his family. He glanced at his children and everyone avoided his gaze. Only Qiao Wang and Jiang Ye looked at Qiao Zhuang openly.

“Qiao Wang, go home and find some way to borrow some money for your eldest brother,” Qiao Zhuang said.

“Father, I’m not very popular in the village. You might as well ask my second sister-in-law to go and borrow money. She knows so many people and there must be many people who are willing to lend it to her. Isn’t my second sister-in-law in charge of the finances in our family?” Qiao Wang said slyly.

With just a few words, he tossed the hot potato to Wang Qin. Wang Qin looked at Qiao Wang with a dark expression. He was usually quiet at home, but he was quite good at pushing the responsibility at critical moments.

At the moment, Qiao Zhuang only had 100 dollars left in his pocket. It was probably not even enough to pay for half of the surgery fees.

Qiao Zhuang thought about it and finally said, “All of you go back with Zhao Liang and quickly go to Qiao Mei’s house to ask for money. Tell your eldest uncle that this is his biological nephew. Ask him if he would leave his nephew in the lurch! Otherwise, if he really dies, we’ll put him outside their door!”

Zhao Liang pursed his lips helplessly. He was an outsider and could not say anything about this matter. He had finally seen how shameless Qiao Zhuang’s family was.

This matter had nothing to do with Qiao Mei and Qiao Qiang. The two of them were also victims and Qiao Mei had even taken care of Qiao Fu for a while. Such kind people were still bullied by Qiao Zhuang and the rest. It was really inhumane of this family.

After rushing back on the horse carriage for half a day, they finally reached the village. Qiao Wang did not intend to get involved in this matter at all and grabbed Jiang Ye to go home to rest. Qiao Gui was worried that he would get into trouble if Qiao Fu died, so he went straight to Qiao Mei’s house to ask for money without returning home. Zhao Liang also followed him there.

As soon as they entered the house, Qiao Gui knelt on the ground and said without looking up, “Uncle! Please save my eldest brother! This matter started because of you! You can’t leave my eldest big brother in the lurch!”

Qiao Mei and Qiao Qiang looked at Qiao Gui and laughed loudly. Qiao Qiang could not move his abdomen or he would hurt his ribs. It was painful for him to laugh.

This was because Qiao Gui was kneeling where Qiao Mei was standing.

“Second uncle, what are you doing? What’s so urgent that you have to kneel down to me. I’m worried that this will shorten my lifespan. Second uncle, you should get up and talk,” Qiao Mei said as she held back her laughter.

Qiao Qiang tried his best not to laugh. He felt really uncomfortable holding it back and held the blanket tightly to distract himself. His ribs hurt when he laughed.

When Qiao Gui looked up and saw that it was Qiao Mei, he stood up from the ground with a dark expression and said unhappily, “You have to be responsible for my eldest brother. Give me the money quickly. My eldest brother needs money to save his life.”

Qiao Mei sat on the brick bed and said slowly, “You say that we’re responsible for your eldest brother? Responsible for what? It was your eldest brother who beat up my grandfather so badly. We’ve already filed a report in the county city. The armed forces department will come to your house soon. If there’s anything you want to say, you should say it to them.”

Qiao Mei was not lying. She had indeed spoken to Chen Hu on the phone and he had already sent people to the mountain to investigate the scene. There would probably be news from him tomorrow morning.

Qiao Gui was instantly afraid. Although he was not the one who hurt Qiao Qiang, he had also participated that day. According to the law, this could be considered an attempted murder.

“My eldest brother… I didn’t see anything… I don’t know how my eldest brother got injured. Maybe he bumped into something supernatural and the big tree smashed into him. But my eldest brother is also Uncle’s biological nephew. Uncle, you can’t just leave him in the lurch!” Qiao Gui said in a panic.

Out of humanitarian reasons, Qiao Mei wanted to give Qiao Fu some money. After all, while the others did not know the truth of the matter, she was indeed the one who brought down the big tree. Her original intention was only to break Qiao Fu’s bones, but she did not expect that both his legs had to be amputated.

“How much?” Qiao Mei asked.

Qiao Gui asked for an exorbitant amount of 500 dollars.

Zhao Liang looked at Qiao Gui in shock. The doctor clearly said that 260 dollars was enough, but Qiao Zhuang’s entire family really behaved in the same way. They were all scumbags.

He could not afford to offend Qiao Zhuang’s family. If not for the fact that he was afraid of them all these years, he would not have been bullied by them. However, he did not want to lie to Qiao Mei. Qiao Qiang and Qiao Mei treated him very well.

Zhao Liang could only madly wave two fingers at Qiao Mei and blink continuously to let her know how much it really cost.
