---

Gu Chunzhu can't see Su Wangqin's face, but by hearing his words, she felt secured. Although Su Wangqin has a lame leg, his spirit(determination),was enough to be a reliable pillar of their family.

"Eldest, you still blame me for having your leg broken on the battlefield..." Old Mrs. Su was so frightened by his eyes that her mouth felt dry, her voice choked.

She knew the temperament of her own son and Su Wangqin was now provoked. She had to say a few words to ease him.

Su Wangqin's eyes returned to being calm, he exhaled: "I don't blame mother for the previous things. As long as mother doesn't come here for three or five days and give my family some peace this son will still send filial offerings every three months."

Gu Chunzhu felt a threat coming from his words, but it must be a misunderstanding. How can this kind Su Wangqin threaten people?

Old Mrs Su body shook for reason, she looked at Gu Chunzhu who was hiding behind Su Wangqin.

"It's okay if you don't give the money, then..." She compromised, but her voice changed when her gaze fell on the seedlings in the yard.

The spinach seedling had just opened its two or three big leaves. Looking at the green and gratifying small vegetable. Old Mrs Su will definitely not let it go

"Then, I'll just take that and cook it for your sister in law" she said as she rushed into the vegetable field quickly, but was soon stopped by a small figure stood in front of her.

"Grandma, you can't pull the vegetables, they are still young." An An's small hand grasped the hand of Old Mrs. Su.

An An's black grape-like eyes revealed firmness.

"Go away, if you two money losing goods can eat it, why others can't."
Old Mrs. Su stared at the tender leaves and pushed An An away, forgetting that she was just a child.

"An An!"

Gu Chunzhu and Su Wangqin both shouted in panic.

Xiao Cheng was standing beside An An, he quickly stretched out his hand to pull An An in his embrace. Both of them rolled on the ground.

"Daddy, Father, I'm fine." An An stood up and patted the mud on her body, but Xiao Cheng curled up on the ground with a painful expression of being unable to stand up.

An An turned to see her brother and was panicked. She was taken aback for a moment and cried with a "waa".

Gu Chunzhu rushed over to pick up Xiao Cheng and rolled up his trouser. A large piece of skin was scraped on his both knees. It was terrible to see and it was mixed with mud.

"Xiaocheng doesnt hurt, Xiaocheng is a good boy who protects his sister. I will get you medicine, just wait" The little boy endured the pain on his knees, the eyelashes at the corners of his eyes were wet with tears. Gu Chunzhu hugged the child and coaxed while her tears also kept flowing.

Old Mrs Su was left dumbfounded, she just shook her hand.

Su Wangqin watched all this silently, his wife was crying, and the children was crying.

He rushed into the stove room without turning his head and took a kitchen knife out. Old Mrs Su was so frightened when he saw him coming out with a knife, she hurried back to the wooden door and said in horror: "Eldest, what are you doing? Your mother didn't mean it..."

Su Wangqin grabbed Old Mrs Su's hand and stuffed the kitchen knife into her hand.

"My life is given by my mother, take it back! If you want to kill someone, I voluntarily ask for death so my mother will not go to jail." Su Wangqin's eyes was in rage, "If I die, I won't see my wife and children get bullied."

Old Mrs Su was holding the handle of the knife, trembling..

She wanted to throw away the kitchen knife, but Su Wangqin's was tightly clasping her hand to hold the knife handle.

"Eldest, what are you going to do? I was wrong. I won't come to make trouble at your house again, okay! You let me put the knife down." Old Mrs Su's face was sad. She was really shocked by Su Wangqin.

Sister Fu outside could hear all the movements inside, knowing that something was wrong, she hurried over and patted the door as things got heated up.

It's a pity that Old Mrs Su was blocking the wooden doon and Sister Fu can't open it either.

There was a stalemate like this for a long time. Gu Chunzhu put his arms around Xiaocheng and calmed down. With red eyes, she told Su Wangqin: "Let her get out, go inside the house and get the medicine."

Su Wangqin released the hand that held Old Mrs Su. .

Old Mrs Su was already in a cold sweat. As soon as her hand was loosened, the kitchen knife fell on the ground.

She moved away and Sister Fu pushed open the door and came in. She was shocked to see the kitchen knife on the ground. She patted her chest and asked, "Auntie, what happened?"

" Never mind." Old Mrs Su's face was frightened. She said this to Sister Fu and ran away after opening the door.

Sister Fu came in and picked up An An, who was still crying. She couldn't bear to look at Xiaocheng's injured leg. She hugged An An and walked outside the house, "I'll get Xiaocheng some medicine!"

As soon as she left, Su Wangqin took out the golden sore medicine from the house.

Seeing Gu Chunzhu's dull eyes, Su Wangqin bowed his head guiltily, stuffed the golden sore medicine into Gu Chunzhu's hands, and went to scoop some water in the water tank in the kitchen room.

While bringing the water out, Su Wangqin told Gu Chunzhu: "This wound needs to be washed before medicine can be applied."

"Okay, come on." Gu Chunzhu's was in low spirit, looking at the young kid in her arms she tried to cheered up a little, "Xiaocheng, it's a little painful so dont hold back."

"Yeah." Xiaocheng closed his phoenix eyes and held Gu Chunzhu's skirt with both hands.

Su Wangqin poured water down his wound and rubbed off the mud with his hands.

The little body in Gu Chunzu's arms trembled slightly while he gritted his teeth crying. Gu Chunzhu looked away and couldn't bear to look at Xiaocheng's wound.

After cleaning the wound, Su Wangqin poured the golden sore medicine on it.

"It's okay, it's okay, the wound will heal soon." Gu Chunzhu hugged Xiaocheng tightly, patted him lightly, loosened it a little and found that his tears had soaked her clothes. .

Gu Chunzhu wiped the tears from his face and said in a nasal tone manner: "Good job, our Xiaocheng will definitely be able to do great things in the future."

"XiaoCheng Niang here's a badger oil."
Sister Fu loudly said , she was holding An and the earthenware bottle in her other hand.

"We've already applied some medicine"
Sister Fu saw that Xiaocheng had already been treated.

Su Wangqin was a little embarrassed about the medicine bottle in her hand.

Gu Chunzhu reached out and took the badger oil from Sister Fu, "My face is scratched, I will use this later, thank you sister-in-law."

"I'll give you some gold sore medicine." Su Wangqin's said in a low voice.

"I don't need such a precious thing for this small injury. It costs half tael of silver. I bit my teeth while buying it. We've already used it twice, we dont have much."
Gu Chunzhu gave a wry smile.

Su Wangqin was holding the golden sore medicine, he frowned not knowing where to put his hand. ( He didn't know what to do)

Sister Fu saw his anxiety and sat down on the wooden pier with An An, she urged Su Wangqin, "Wangqin, you should make lunch for a while, Chunzhu and the children must be hungry."

Su Wangqin went back to the kitchen room one step at a time,his heart was in chaos. Whenever he met his mother, everything would turn messed up.
