Su Chong and Su Hua were getting better every day, and so was Zhou Heng.
Su Xiaolu had also read half of the medical book. She recognized many herbs, some of which she had never seen in her previous life but were extremely precious here. Su Xiaolu remembered them.
Some of the medicines she had prescribed for Su Chong and Su Hua were taken from the Space, but some of the expensive herbs were taken from Old Wu. She did not understand what they were at first, so she thought they were just ordinary herbs. But as she read the medical book, she realized the value of these expensive herbs.
Old Wu never spoke of this great kindness.
Su Xiaolu knew, but she could not pretend that it did not exist. She remembered the kindness in her heart. She thought that when her two brothers completely recovered the next year and Zhou Heng recovered too, she would follow Old Wu to pick herbs. The Space was fertile, and the herbs planted in it were stained with spiritual energy. She could not waste it.
On the fifth of November, Su Xiaolu and her siblings recited the Thousand Character Classic with Zhou Heng as usual.
There was a loud knock on the courtyard door, followed by the sound of crying.
"Third Uncle, Third Aunt, please open the door and save my father."
Chen Daniu cried and banged on the door. Her tears rolled down like broken beads and she couldn't stop.
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were not at home. When they heard the knock on the door, Su Chong and Su Hua could not help but look at Su Xiaoling.
Su Xiaoling frowned and said, "It's Daniu. I'll open the door."
Su Xiaoling ran to open the door. When it opened, Chen Daniu, whose face was covered in tears, knelt down.

Su Xiaoling was shocked and quickly reached out to help her up.
Chen Daniu refused to get up. She cried and said, "Xiaoling, my father was hit in the head and lost a lot of blood..."
Su Xiaoling had mixed feelings when she heard this. She helped Chen Daniu up and said, "Daniu, come in first."
Chen Daniu couldn't stop crying. She held Su Xiaoling's hand tightly and said, "I want to find Third Uncle. I want to ask him to help find a doctor to save my father. I-I'm willing to do anything for your family to repay you."
Chen Dainiu looked at Su Xiaoling firmly. Su Xiaoling could not bear it, but she still said, "Daniu, my parents are not at home, and Doctor Wu went out to pick herbs."
Chen Daniu looked at Su Xiaolu in the courtyard and pleaded, "Can you let Xiaolu go? She saved my mother before. She... can definitely do it too. As long as she can save my father, I'm willing to marry your big brother, okay?"
Chen Daniu's heart was filled with despair, but she had nothing to give. If she had anything valuable, it was probably her life.
She knew that the Su brothers were mentally unsound. She wanted to repay them with herself. This was undoubtedly painful for her because it meant that she would have to spend the rest of her life with a child who would never grow up. He would never understand her worries.
Su Xiaoling was stunned. She did not know how to answer.
Su Xiaolu had already walked out. She said, "Big Sister Daniu, I can go with you to take a look. I don't want you to repay my brother like this. Good friends have to help each other. Uncle Hu and Dad are good friends."
Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were not at home, but if they were, they would definitely not decline.
In order to save her father, Chen Daniu did not hesitate to use herself as repayment because she knew that Su Sanlang's family did not owe her family anything. She could not let others help them for free.
But marriage could not be settled so casually.
Did Chen Daniu like her big brother? Judging from her pained expression, she definitely did not. Su Xiaolu also knew that it was impossible for anyone in the world to like a fool who knew nothing.
Chen Daniu didn't mean to look down on him. She just didn't like him.
Su Xiaolu did not mean anything else. She did not like Chen Daniu saying that she would repay them with her life under such circumstances.
With that, Su Xiaolu went to get the medical kit. She called Su Hua to help her carry it.
"Big Sister Daniu, let's go."
When Su Xiaolu came out to leave with Chen Daniu, she finally came back to her senses.
She wiped away her tears, said, "Thank you," in a choked voice, and went ahead.
Su Xiaoling watched them leave. After thinking about it for a while, she was still worried. She turned around and said to Su Chong and Zhou Heng, "Big Brother, Little Brother Heng, I'm going to tell Father and Mother about this. Let my brother help you if you need anything, Little Brother Heng."
Su Chong patted his chest and promised solemnly, "Sister, don't worry. Leave it to me. I'll take good care of Heng."
Zhou Heng nodded gently and said gently, "Be careful."
Su Xiaoling nodded and turned to leave.

On the way, Su Xiaolu asked, "Big Sister Daniu, who hit Uncle Hu?"
Chen Daniu was very sad. She choked and said, "My grandma did."
As she spoke, her tears began to fall again.
Su Xiaolu asked in confusion, "Why?"
Su Xiaolu also had some understanding of Chen Hu. He was not liked by his parents and was ostracized by his siblings. His situation was very similar to Su Sanlang's in the past. They both had a hard life.
However, the main reason why Su Sanlang was not given up by Old Master Su and Madam Wang was that Su Chong and Su Hua were mentally unsound and Madam Zhao could not give birth anymore.
Madam Qian was different. She had given birth to a healthy boy. Even if Father and Mother Chen did not want to give face, they had to.
Chen Daniu cried even harder. She wiped her tears and took a deep breath before saying, "Because my mother still had to go through confinement, my grandmother insisted that she worked in the fields. My father was disobedient, so my grandmother was very angry and hit him."
"Father said that he wanted Mother to be in confinement for forty-five days. We even did all the work that Mother was supposed to do, but even so, Grandma was still not satisfied. She said that she went to work the day after giving birth to Father..."
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face. She was a girl. Seeing her mother's plight was like seeing herself in the future. She didn't think it was worth it and felt wronged. Most of all, she couldn't understand it.
Su Xiaolu understood what Chen Daniu meant.
She fell silent.
Mother Chen deliberately made things difficult for Madam Qian because she was angry that Madam Qian had a husband to protect her during her confinement period. When she thought about how she had to work the next day after giving birth, she felt hatred in her heart. Therefore, the more Chen Hu protected Madam Qian, the more Mother Chen made things difficult for her.

In ancient times, families seldom lived separately, so women also became crazy under all kinds of pressure. When they were wives, they suffered a lot. When they finally became mothers-in-law, they naturally had to abuse the rights that they once yearned for.

Furthermore, this was still a family matter. If outsiders interfered, they would be meddling in other people's business. Even comforting them would be useless.
When they arrived at Chen Hu's house, they saw Madam Qian washing clothes.
From the main room, curses were heard from time to time.
Madam Qian cried as she washed. Chen Erniu helped, her eyes red as well.
Seeing Su Xiaolu, Madam Qian sniffled and wiped the tears off her face. She clasped her hands together and pleaded to Su Xiaolu, "Xiaolu, please save your Uncle Hu. He hasn't woken up yet."
