Chapter 837: Foot Was Smashed
Launching a big boat is also a big event. Those of them who have shares must go to take a look, but they can't delay earning money.
Ye Yaodong originally rested for a day with his father, planning to go with his second brother and the others, but who knew that early in the morning, just as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, someone ran over in a hurry and said Haozi's foot was crushed by a big rock.
The whole family was shocked and all ran towards the small workshop.
"How could he be so careless suddenly, and get crushed by a big rock?"
"It was his wife pulling and dragging him. He was originally moving rocks, but his wife insisted on calling him over to ask for wages first. He refused, saying who asks for money early in the morning. His wife scolded him there, saying that she told him to come over and ask for wages the night before..."
"Damn it!"
Ye Yaodong cursed.
"Everyone said, wait until the work is finished to get the money, but she said there was no rice in the pot or something, and then the couple pulled and dragged. Haozi pushed his wife away, preparing to help lift the rock..."
They ran while talking, and after only a few steps, they arrived. The open space was surrounded by three layers of people, all of whom were working in the workshop.
Ye Yaodong pushed through the crowd and saw Haozi had already been helped onto an empty cart for transporting stones, with one foot raised outside. The liberation shoes were covered with bloodstains, and the person lying there kept howling dryly.
His wife was still frowning and scolding him for being so careless.
"Adong, Ye Laosan, look at this foot, the blood has seeped out. With such a big rock pressing down, the bones on the instep are probably broken. This must be sent to the town hospital immediately." The foreman said.
"I'll send him. Dad, you and A-Guang and the others go to the county town."
"I'll go call Mom over and ask her to take a half-day off and go with you." Lin Xiuqing said with a frown.
The workshop here was still under construction, and she still had to manage the food and drink for more than a dozen workers, so she couldn't leave for a moment. She could only ask his mother to go with him.
Ye Fu hurriedly spoke, "I'll ride the bike to call your mother back. Aqing, go back to the room and get the money first."
"Then hurry up."
Haozi's wife also clamored, "Then hurry up. The bones are definitely broken. If the bone setting is delayed and it can't be set, he'll become a cripple. You won't be able to afford the compensation, and he won't be able to work for the rest of his life. You have to be responsible."
"Shut your damn mouth. He hasn't even been sent to the hospital yet, and you're already cursing him? Are you hoping he becomes a cripple?"
"I'm just urging you to hurry..."
"Don't want money? If you don't want money, then leave immediately. You pay for the medical expenses?"
"That must be paid by you. He got injured while working for you..."
"Shut your damn mouth. Without you, could his foot be crushed? Isn't it because you were pulling him that he crushed his foot? I see you are full of bad luck. It's all your fault. If you say one more word, you send him yourself."
Haozi's wife was choked with anger and glared at him.
At this time, more and more villagers were watching, and there was a lot of discussion in the crowd, all asking how the person got injured.
The villagers who were working were also talking all at once, saying it was his wife pulling him that caused him to crush his foot.
"Ah? Who asks for money at someone else's house early in the morning, and the work isn't even finished..."
"Right, even debt collectors don't dare to come to the door early in the morning, fearing bad luck. The work isn't finished, and she still thinks about asking for wages early in the morning..."
"Tsk~ the foot is crushed like this, the bones must be broken. This is an injury to muscles and bones for a hundred days..."
"Really unlucky, to run into this."
Indeed, Ye Yaodong also felt he was unlucky. Sure enough, some people bring bad luck with them, and nothing good happens when they get close.
He had thought it was just building walls and working, and there was no oil or water, so there shouldn't be any trouble. Since they had already begged to come to the door, he would look at the friendship of childhood friends and give them a job.
As a result...
Marrying such a wife is really unlucky, harming others and oneself.
Ye Yaodong waited for a little while, and Lin Xiuqing ran over quickly and gave him a large group of banknotes. He didn't have time to count them, and after stuffing them all into his pocket, he pushed the cart and planned to walk to the entrance of the village first.
Anyway, if his father called his mother over, they would naturally catch up.
And his two sisters-in-law were also resting for a day today and were preparing to dry clam meat at home. At this moment, they also followed to see the situation.
"Make way, make way, everyone make way~"
"Everyone make way, let them pass, don't block the intersection..."
Ye Yaodong shouted, and the villagers on the side also hurriedly helped shout. Everyone was very cooperative, clearing the road for him to pass.
And Haozi's mother, his sister-in-law, and a large group of relatives also rushed over, following along and asking questions.
The men had basically gone to work. At this time, the rest of the family were women, and the ones who surrounded them were also women.
Aunts and uncles were all surrounding the cart and talking. It made his head big. Finding trouble for himself, it was really damn it!
But regret was only for a moment. He felt he wasn't wrong to keep people for work. It was all Haozi's wife's fault, this unlucky spendthrift woman.
At this time, he couldn't help but miss his mother, and also understood the intention of Aqing saying she wanted to call his mother to go with him. He really couldn't handle so many women alone.
Fortunately, his sisters-in-law were there.
"The person hasn't even been sent to the hospital yet, and you are concerned about who should pay? If you have to pay for it yourself, then don't treat it?" Ye Ersao retorted impolitely.
"Why should we pay? He got injured while working for him."
Eldest Sister-in-law also glared at them, "Then he was working honestly there. If you didn't pull him, could his foot be crushed by a rock? This is all your fault. Why should Adong pay?"
"Who knew he was so careless? Although I pulled him, it was when he was moving rocks, and it was when he was working. Since he was working, your family must be responsible."
"Right, he got injured while working at your construction site anyway..."
Ye Ersao: "Then the injury is also your fault. You pest, harming others and yourself. If he becomes a cripple, it's also you harming your own husband."
"You're the one who's a cripple..."
"Stop arguing!" Haozi endured the pain and shouted.
"Shut up. If you keep nagging, I'll just leave him on the roadside and not care." Ye Yaodong listened to them arguing while walking, feeling like there were thousands of ducks by his ears, and his head was big.
He didn't even know how the foot was, and they were arguing about who should pay the medical expenses. Did he say he wouldn't pay?
Ye Mu followed behind, running, and arrived late.
As soon as she came over, she said a lot of things.
"Oh, what kind of sin is this? A good foot crushed like this. This must be treated well, and no root of the disease can be left."
"Early in the morning, suffering this crime, it's really unlucky. It's said that marrying a virtuous wife can prosper three generations. Marrying a disaster, the whole family of three generations will not have peace."
"The old saying is still very reasonable. Fortunately, my eyesight is good, and the daughters-in-law I picked are all trouble-free. Otherwise, it would be harming others and oneself."
Haozi's wife was annoyed, "What are you saying? Don't think about shirking responsibility."
"If I wanted to shirk responsibility, my son wouldn't be pushing the cart right now. You can send him to whoever you want. Anyway, the one who becomes a cripple later won't be us."
"Sigh, injury to muscles and bones for a hundred days. When the time comes, you must tell your wife to nourish him well and eat a few more pig's feet. Just happen to eat back the pig's feet sent to the father-in-law's house all these years."
"Walk faster, otherwise if it's delayed, you'll have to pay." Haozi's wife was stung and couldn't help but urge them.
Ye Yaodong angrily stopped pushing the cart, "You damn well push it yourself, send him to the hospital yourself."
At this time, Haozi's mother also glared at his wife, "Stop saying a few words. Now it's important to send him to the hospital to see a doctor. What are you arguing about on the road? Didn't they follow?"
Ye Ersao snorted coldly and rolled her eyes, "Can't talk to people who don't have a clear brain. I'm afraid of being infected if I talk too much. Don't harm my husband later, ah phew~ phew~"
Haozi couldn't help but shout at his wife, "You damn well want me to die, right? Shut up."
"Push faster, push faster... don't delay..."
Eldest Sister-in-law also smoothed things over, "We're all out, let's send him to the hospital first."
"Right, send him to the hospital first. If there's anything to say, talk after seeing the foot," Haozi's mother took over the work of pushing the cart anxiously, "You endure it, it's a bit bumpy if you push too fast."
Ye Yaodong listened to Haozi on the cart howling in pain intermittently, and his mother pulled him, so he had to follow.
Now the road was peaceful, no one spoke, and it was quiet.
There were many people coming and going in the town, walking and stopping, and it took about an hour to reach the hospital.
Those women were all useless. After arriving at the hospital gate, they all looked at Ye Yaodong.
Ye Yaodong didn't count on those women either. Without waiting for them to speak, he squatted down and asked them to help lift the person onto his back, and he carried him upstairs.
There were few people in the hospital, and few doctors seeing patients. In this day and age, few people went to the hospital. For minor illnesses and pains, they would carry them if they could.
As soon as their group entered, they received key treatment, and the doctor immediately gave him a diagnosis.
After the examination, as expected, it was said that the bones on the instep were crushed, and he needed to have a plaster cast and rest. Injury to muscles and bones for 100 days.
Ye Yaodong didn't shirk, running back and forth, paying the money that should be paid, getting the medicine that should be gotten, and was very busy.
By the time it was wrapped up and they returned, it was already noon.
Providing meals was impossible.
A large group of people pushed the person back on the cart, but they started arguing again on the road.
"You have to come over again in a few days to change the medicine. You have to come over together. You have to be responsible. And he won't be able to work for the next three months and has to lie down. You also have to be responsible and compensate us."
Ye Ersao argued with her, "It was clearly you who caused him to fall."
"That was also while working for you, so you have to be responsible."
Talking and talking, the topic went back to this point again.
Ye Mu said angrily: "Didn't we pay for your medical expenses? Do we have to support your whole family for three months? Why don't you go to heaven?"
