Good Fortune Arrives at the Door of a Rural Doctor's Daughter
"Brother, how did you come?" Fú Qiūlián's eyebrows and eyes curved up, she smiled and welcomed him over, "Brother, come quickly, sit here."
"Big Uncle." Lian Qing, although not fond of his own uncle's rough and rude behavior, never lost his courtesy. He stood up and cupped his hands together, "What brings Big Uncle here at this hour?"
"Hmph, I won't come. Are you going to let this bunch of people take advantage of my sister's things and my nephew's things?" Just like Lian Qing didn't have a good impression of Fú Jiā Dàgē (Fú family's big brother), Fú Dàgē also didn't have a good temper towards this man who snatched away his own precious little sister! He glared at him fiercely, but then turned around and smiled like a flower as he supported Fú Qiūlián to sit down. "Little sister, hurry up and sit down, be careful not to tire yourself out and hurt my precious nephew."
Fu Qiu Lian cried and laughed, "Brother, it's just a few steps away, why are you being so pampered?" The eldest brother of the Fu family glared at her, "What's wrong with a few steps? Just because it's only a few steps doesn't mean it's not a road, does it? What if you sprain your leg or twist your ankle?"
The people next to him turned black in the face, even Qing mouthed a corner and quickly calmed down - no way, he had seen too much, wasn't surprised at all. Taking advantage of Fu Qiu Lian's opening, he spoke up instantly, "Brother-in-law came over today, is there something?"
"Brother Fú patted his thigh, glared at Lián Qīng again, and said, 'If you weren't useless and couldn't protect my sister, would I have to come here?' He ignored Lián Qīng's darkening face, hummed softly through his nose, and bowed to Lián Lǎo, who was sitting on the kang with his legs crossed. With a rough smile, he said, 'Lián Shìbó, my father heard that your family is dividing up the property today, and he's worried that my sister might not understand what's going on and get taken advantage of. So, he sent me over to take a look. But in my opinion, Lián Shìbó is a good man, how could you let my sister be bullied? Isn't that right, Lián Shìbó?'"
"This is natural. Your sister married Sanlang, who is a member of our family, how can I bear to see her being bullied?" Lian's father also turned his face black, but when he looked up at Fowu's big brother, his eyes widened in anger, and his face involuntarily trembled twice!
"This isn't settled yet? Little sister, see, I told you our dad is an old fool, thinking too much, thinking ill of people. Even if Shibo is your father-in-law, how could he let his daughter-in-law be bullied? See, big brother was right!" Fowei's older brother clapped his hands and shouted loudly towards the outside, "You few come in here!"
Suddenly, three big and tall men burst into the house, exuding a fierce aura. One of them was wearing a government official's uniform, with a scar on his face that ran from the left eye corner to the right mouth corner, giving the impression that his entire face had been slashed in half. The scar moved whenever he smiled, making him look ferocious and terrifying! The men stood at the door, grinning at Fowager, "Brother, what's up?"
"Today my sister is moving out, this move, there's always something to do. My brother-in-law, well, you all know he's a useless scholar, haha! You guys wait outside for a bit and help my sister move her dowry and stuff, then I'll treat you to a big meal at the restaurant."
"Alright, let's go outside, I have something to attend to."
Several people retreated to the outside of the door again, and the room suddenly became quiet for a moment. Even the children who were chattering non-stop earlier shut their mouths - they were scared by that person just now!
Liu Li Chang lowered his head and drank tea, he didn't see anything.
Lian Lao Die's hand trembled twice, pointing at Fu Jia Da Ge, but when Fu Jia Da Ge glared with his big copper bell-like eyes, raised an eyebrow and smiled, he couldn't help but feel his heart skip a few beats. Then, Lian Lao Die involuntarily changed his tone, "Qiang Ge Er, you sit down, since you're here, it's just right to bear witness, so that our family won't be blamed for mistreating the daughter of the Fu family."
Lao Lai said this with a hint of anger, but Fow's eldest brother was calm and composed, sitting upright on the stool with an air of certainty, nodding his head. "This is natural, Uncle, you can rest assured that I will take care of it." As he spoke, he glanced at Li Shi, who had been standing nearby with a dark face since he arrived, not saying a word. "Our Fow family's daughter is someone no one can bully! Otherwise, I'll make her regret being born into this world!"
“……”
Li's breath almost caught in her throat, was she talking about herself? She had wanted to say a few words, but remembered the scene where Fu Zhanqiang single-handedly pinched Lian Fei half to death, and a mouthful of old blood surged up to her throat, which she swallowed back down.
"Dad, what is he? This is our home, not the Fow family. Third brother, are you going to let him bully our family members?" Lian Tian'er's words made Fu Qiu Lian smile wryly, and at this moment she thought of being a family, had she ever thought that she and Lian Qing were from the same family before?
Which little sister-in-law stole something from her own sister-in-law?
And it's still one pot meal, three sisters all present?
Lian Qing's eyebrows furrowed, although he also didn't like Lian Tian'er, but after all, what she said wasn't wrong. Lian Lao Ye was still his father, even if he wasn't a good one. Just as he was about to speak, the teacup in Fu Zhanqiang's hand spun around and flew towards Lian Tian'er, brushing against her face before smashing into the wall behind her. The scalding hot tea splashed onto her face, causing her to let out a loud shriek as she jumped up, her face filled with terror. "Mother, mother, I'm scalded! Mother, my face!" At this moment, she only cared about her own face and didn't even bother to get angry at Fu Zhanqiang for throwing the teacup at her.
Her face had a red mark on it, just slightly reddened. Dr. Fu Qiu Lian's professional eyes took a look and thought that in a day or two, she would be fine. But Li was like the sky had fallen, hugging her sweet treasure, crying as if her heart were breaking, "Her father, can you just watch our Sweetie being bullied like this?"
Lian Qing furrowed his brow, clearly displeased. "Big Brother-in-law, if you're here to bear witness, I welcome you. But if you continue like this, please leave first." As he spoke, he glanced at Fu Qiu Lian, afraid she'd get angry, and seemed to be explaining to Fu Zhan Qiang, "I, Lian Qing, may not be much of a man, but I can still protect my own wife. Please go back and tell Father-in-law that the dowry is my wife's property, her personal belongings. The Lian family will never take something that doesn't belong to us without returning it."
"It's fine, you guys continue." Fuzhang Qiang smiled at Lian Laodie and the others on the kang, his eyebrows raised in a somewhat insincere apology. "Sorry about what happened earlier, my hand slipped."
Slipped away
Fu Qiulian bowed her head and desperately held back her laughter, if anyone in this house had the best mood, it would be Fu Qiulian. Looking at such a silly Big Brother Fú, she really wanted to rush over and hug his face, kissing him hard twice, "Brother, how can you be so cute?"
Looking at this scene, he knew that continuing to struggle would not yield any good results. Even his old father seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, and his straight back was slightly hunched. He weakly waved his hand, "Third son, bring over your wife's dowry list, and check the items with your mother, take them all away." He saw very clearly, he also understood Li's thoughts, ten acres of land, plus some decorative items, if he said that his old father was not tempted, it would be impossible. So, he had been turning a blind eye before, but now, he silently sighed in his heart, he had thought wrong.
The Fow family is not someone who can be bullied.
"Things Sanlang can be moved away, but the little one of the Fu family hit my sweet daughter's face like this. How should this matter be resolved? Can it just be settled like this? I don't agree." Li Shi's sharp voice rang out, glaring at Fu Zhangqiang and Fu Qiulian siblings, "If you don't give me an explanation today, I, I, I will not live as a wife."
Not alive? Fú Qiū Lián curled her lip, just about to speak up when a calm and collected voice rose from beside her, "You want me to take responsibility? How do you suggest I do that? Or should I go all out, with eight bearers carrying the sedan chair, three matchmakers officiating, and formally welcome her into our household as my wife?"
