When Yin Xu arrived at the hospital, the doctor gave him a careful examination and used good medicine, but still shook his head and said, “You’ve broken a leg from a fall, but also delayed the best time to treat it. It’ll be too difficult for you to fully recuperate. It’s not impossible to cure it, but…”

The doctor observed their clothes and sighed. “Get admitted for two days for observation, then have a bed rest for two months when you go back. Take good medicine, and return to the clinic every week. After that, we will do rehabilitation exercises to slowly restore your leg function. This whole process has to be done cautiously. You can’t work or make mistakes, otherwise, you will end up limp. And it costs a lot of money.”

When Yang Yuelan heard this, her tears trickled down. Yin Xu hurriedly comforted her, “Mom, Shou Hou’er and I have some money in our hands, it’s enough. Let’s see how it goes. The doctor said there is hope. Isn’t this better than being completely crippled?”

Yang Yuelan nodded vigorously, wiping away her tears. “Yes, yes. So what next? I’ll go through the hospitalization procedures, and then inform Qiuwen. I’ll be back later.”

Yin Xu smiled and said, “I have Shou Hou’er with me. Don’t worry, Mom, don’t rush going home.”

“Alright, I get it.” Yang Yuelan was in a bad mood, but she forced a smile to go through the formalities and went out to Yin Qiuwen’s school.

The doctor’s diagnosis was almost equivalent to saying that Yin Xu would be crippled, because they failed to take care of him carefully. She was also in poor health, and she has been struggling for several days. It was obvious that she couldn’t hold up. However, she was afraid that if she falls one day, how would Yin Xu fare?

If his marriage had been agreed a few months in advance, her daughter-in-law would have entered their family just in time to help. This kind of kindness was greater than the sky, and their whole family would naturally treat Yin Xu’s wife better in the future. After Yin Xu has passed this time, his leg would heal better, and then the life of the young couple would also improve.

But his marriage was now so chaotic, leading to one of the Chu sisters seemingly having set fire to the other, while the other was lying in the hospital in a coma. She was so upset that she felt that it was because of her insistence on marriage that rendered people into this state, especially Chu Xiang. If she really were to remain comatose, wouldn’t her life be over? She felt as if she had killed Chu Xiang.

The more she thought about it, the guiltier she felt. When she saw Yin Qiuwen, she had to pretend that nothing was wrong and tell her that Yin Xu’s leg could still be cured.

Yin Qiuwen was very surprised when she heard it. She hurriedly packed her things and said with a smile, “Mom, it just happens to be our dismissal. Let’s go home together, and I’ll take care of you and brother. I’ve agreed with the teacher that I won’t have to come to school often before the college entrance examination.”

Yang Yuelan expressed her surprise: “What did you say? That’s not going to work! You can only fly out of this mountain nest if you are admitted to university. How can you delay your studies? Your brother has me at home to take care of him. Besides, Shou Hou’er always comes over to help. Don’t worry about anything else until you get your college entrance exam done.”

Yin Qiuwen packed her things by herself and took her to the hospital with a smile. “Mom, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. The school no longer teaches new knowledge now. Everything’s just a review. I’ll approach the teacher every few days to copy the review materials. I just have to go home and review the exam questions by myself. If I have any questions, I’ll ask the teacher next time. You are not in good health, and my brother needs someone to take care of him. What’s the point of me staying in the county? If I keep worrying, I won’t be able to study properly, and I will definitely fail the test.”

“Ptooey-ptooey-ptooey! Don’t be ridiculous!” Yang Yuelan has never been able to outspeak her children. One was more positive than the other, so she could only agree with her daughter.

When the two were having a meal, Yang Yuelan mentioned Chu Xiang’s matter. She sighed for a while and said, “Let’s go see Chu Xiang. My heart will never rest, if I don’t go see her. If only she could wake up.”

“All right. Chu Xiang’s studies are much better than mine. If she takes the college entrance examination, she will definitely be admitted. Why did something happen to her at this juncture? Chu Lan is also secretive. She’s too scary, but I’ve never noticed it before. Fortunately, she didn’t marry Brother.” Yin Qiuwen looked frightened and helped Yang Yuelan with the food. Afterward, the mother and daughter went to Chu Xiang’s ward together.

The reason Chu Xiang caused such a fuss was to consume the Chu family’s wealth and convince them that she was a broom star, but now that she has achieved her goal, she has naturally “woken up”. It was just that no calls were received from the brigade, and the hospital has not yet passed the news to the Chu family.  For this reason, many people looked down on the Chu family and thought they didn’t want Chu Xiang to be cured now that she was lying comatose. They were truly inhumane, leaving her by herself in the hospital.

Therefore, as soon as Yang Yuelan and Yin Qiuwen arrived in the ward, they saw Chu Xiang sitting by the bedside reading a newspaper. This was completely different from what they had expected, and neither of them could react.

Chu Xiang lifted her head and asked with some surprise, “Yin Qiuwen, Aunt Yin? C-Can I help you?”

Yin Qiuwen reacted first. She looked at the food in her hand and said with a smile: “Oh, it isn’t me… My brother came to the hospital today to have his leg checked. We heard that you were hospitalized here, so we came to check on you. So, uhm, Chu Xiang, you haven’t eaten yet, right? Here, have some food.”

“Oh, right, Chu Xiang, you… right, did the doctor say what can you eat now? Can you drink porridge? Here’s a bowl of millet porridge.” Yang Yuelan handed the porridge over happily. The big stone weighing down her heart also rested, and she smiled very kindly.

Chu Xiang thought about her “penniless” and “unattended” situation, put down the newspaper, and took the bowl of porridge with both hands. “Thank you Aunt Yin. The millet porridge is just right. Did the doctor examine Yin Xu? How is his leg?”

Yang Yuelan sighed in response, “He, ah, the doctor said his leg can be cured. It just needs to be taken good care of. They need to observe it these two days first. You’re okay now that you’re awake, right?”

“The doctor said I’m fine.”

“Alas, let me tell you, this incident has turned into a mess. Rumors have spread in the brigade, and the captain has locked Chu Lan up to investigate the cause of the fire. But there is no evidence. It’s hard to say whether she started the fire or not, and it may not be settled in the end. In fact, your grandmother and I have not agreed on a marriage. We were just negotiating, you know? However, it resulted in this mess. I’m really sorry…”
