CHAPTER 184: CHAPTER 182: NOT AFRAID OF REFUSAL (2)
What a joke, if you don’t press her now, there won’t be another chance.
This Aunt Liu, bold and unreasonable, only by holding onto her weakness can she be subdued.
Business relies on quality competition, not Aunt Liu’s monopoly.
Aunt Liu got involved with someone and unexpectedly became pregnant with his child.
I suppose the matter of the child can’t be hidden anymore, that’s why Aunt Liu has taken the risk of coming to an unfamiliar doctor at the market to have an abortion.
In ancient times, abortion was only by medication.
Medication seems simple, just take a strong dose, and in about half an hour the child will come out.
However, it’s not safe; if the medication isn’t clean and a curettage isn’t performed, she might not be able to conceive in the future, leaving permanent health issues.
If the medication is too strong, it can cause excessive bleeding, and she might die on the spot.
Aunt Liu isn’t experiencing severe bleeding, she’s the type where it wasn’t cleaned out properly, leading to more bleeding and severe abdominal pain.
"You... you come back!" Aunt Liu shouted at Li Yuzhu.
Li Yuzhu turned around and went back, "Do you agree to let me call your mother-in-law to take care of you?"
Damned girl! Is she doing it on purpose?
If her mother-in-law finds out she had a miscarriage, she’ll beat her to death!
"Don’t tell anyone about my pregnancy and miscarriage!" Aunt Liu grasped Li Yuzhu’s hand and whispered, "I agree to all your conditions."
Li Yuzhu raised her eyebrows, "Straightforward!" She helped Aunt Liu up, smiling faintly, "I’ll handle your bleeding and restore you to normal. If you still cause trouble for my sister afterward, I’ll reveal the truth. Besides, you won’t be able to hide it. With a reminder from a doctor, your husband will discover everything."
This was to remind Aunt Liu, not to cross the river and destroy the bridge!
Aunt Liu gritted her teeth, "Fine... let’s say it’s agreed."
Li Yuzhu glanced around, "This is the main street, too many people here. I need to get you settled before treating your illness."
"This way." Aunt Liu pointed behind her, "You help me, I’ll lead the way."
"Fine." Li Yuzhu nodded, "But wait a moment, I need to let my eldest sister know so she doesn’t worry."
Just as she turned, she saw the Great Princess coming over.
Originally, the Great Princess entered the pharmacy and found Li Yuzhu hadn’t followed, so she came out looking for her.
"What’s going on, third sister? Oh, it’s you, third sister, we’re busy, what are you chatting with her for? Let’s go, let’s go!" The Great Princess recognized Liu Da Niu’s aunt and thought Li Yuzhu was arguing with Aunt Liu.
This woman is bold and unreasonable, she insists on winning everything and steps over her relatives.
The Great Princess deeply despises her.
In the past, the Great Princess would have sent the girls forward to beat her up for revenge.
But now, the Great Princess has no entourage, no girls, and can only avoid unreasonable Aunt Liu.
"She’s not well now, she wants me to help her." Li Yuzhu said.
"Ha, such a person, how is her well-being any of our concern? If she dies, serves her right!" The Great Princess pulled Li Yuzhu, "Come on, let’s go sell herbs."
"You... you help me, I’ll pay." Aunt Liu found that the blood flowed more and more, her stomach hurt more, hands and feet grew cold.
She became afraid.
"How much?" The Great Princess, greedy for money, immediately asked.
"I only have two taels of silver on me." Aunt Liu squeezed her pocket.
"So little?" The Great Princess raised her eyebrows.
"No... it’s not little." Aunt Liu endured the pain, "Normally, seeing a doctor only costs a few hundred coins, two taels of silver... that’s a lot..."
"A few hundred coins for a cold, maybe, but your illness seems serious, how can it be cured with a few hundred coins? You’re bleeding!" The Great Princess frowned, pointing at the ground by Aunt Liu’s foot, "Your condition isn’t light!"
"Eldest sister, she also promised not to trouble second sister anymore." Li Yuzhu said.
The Second Princess’s business is the family’s backbone.
On average, it has an income of six to eight hundred coins a day.
Deducting flour and other costs, the daily earnings are over four hundred to six hundred coins.
The Great Princess used to look down on the Second Princess, thinking she just ate and did nothing.
Now knowing the Second Princess isn’t just a foodie but also earns money, she tries to help her.
Li Yuzhu said this, the Great Princess immediately said, "That’s fair enough, hey, Aunt Da Niu, the money? Pay first and we’ll save you."
The Great Princess looked at Aunt Liu and rudely held out her hand.
Aunt Liu glared at her, cursing in her heart, isn’t she giving the money, why demand so aggressively?
But fearing the Li Family Sisters wouldn’t help, she reluctantly took out the money, "Here, two taels of silver."
These were two small pieces of broken silver, the Great Princess verified its authenticity, kept one piece for herself, and gave the other to Li Yuzhu, "Third sister, without me, she wouldn’t have paid, this money should be split with me."
"Alright, eldest sister." Li Yuzhu nodded.
Once extravagant with money, paying for jokes, the Great Princess now haggling over two taels of silver, truly an effort.
Li Yuzhu couldn’t help but feel sentimental, pocketed the piece of silver.
The Great Princess smiled and pocketed the other piece, "Third sister, go save her then."
"Both of you help me walk this way..." Aunt Liu weakly said.
"You still need help walking? You think two taels of silver is a lot? Ha! I’ve grown up having others assist me, never assisted anyone! You’re the first person I help! Today, you really have face!" The Great Princess sneered.
The sisters, one on each side, supported Aunt Liu, walking toward the alley.
After walking about a hundred steps, Aunt Liu pointed to a dilapidated house door, "It’s here."
She took out a key from her waist as she spoke.
Li Yuzhu took the key, opened the courtyard gate, the main room door, and then the bedroom door.
This was a very simple little house, the entrance was the main room, with a side room on each side, the west side was the kitchen, the east was the bedroom, and there were no other rooms.
There was also a small well for water in the yard.
Li Yuzhu returned and together with the Great Princess helped Aunt Liu into the bedroom.
At this point, Aunt Liu’s face was as white as paper, her skirt stained with a large red patch, she clutched her abdomen, rolling on the bed.
While rolling, she cursed her lover Chen Yao.
The Great Princess didn’t know Aunt Liu had a lover, didn’t know who she was cursing, assumed that it was a woman’s menstrual cramps causing pain that led to cursing.
She impatiently scolded Aunt Liu, "This is a woman’s fate! You enjoyed the beauty, now endure the pain. Knowing a woman’s body is delicate, unable to withstand a cold, why don’t take care of yourself usually? Ha, can’t bear the menstrual pain now?"
What are you saying? Aunt Liu wanted to curse the Great Princess, but she wasn’t suffering from menstrual pain, it was a miscarriage!
But she was in so much pain, she was too lazy to care about the Great Princess.
Li Yuzhu gave Aunt Liu an anti-inflammatory pill, poured some water from the kettle beside the bed to help her swallow it, then said to the Great Princess, "I see there’s a kitchen over there, can you boil some hot water to wash her?"
"What? Me boil water to serve her?" The Great Princess sneered, unwilling to go.
Ridiculous, she never served anyone!
"You took her one tael of silver, this money is to heal her." Li Yuzhu looked at the Great Princess, "It’s the rule."
