Chapter 292 The eldest girl's divination came true again
Peng turned her head and winked at her two sons, "Yuan'er, Rui'er, grandma promised to pay money to redeem your father, why don't you hurry and take the banknotes!"
The old lady was stunned. When did she agree to pay the money? That was 100,000 taels. She would have to be crazy to agree.
Xie Yuan heard Peng's hint, which was to ask them to take the old man's banknotes. He was still hesitant, thinking that this was not a good idea.
But Xie Rui didn't bother to think so much. He rushed to the old lady and reached out to take the silver bills in her sleeve, and even took the jewelry on her body.
Xie Mao was not stupid. He guessed that Peng would never be willing to spend 100,000 taels to redeem his father and second uncle. Instead, she wanted to snatch the old lady's money and leave it for their second wife to spend.
His father is also the grandmother's son, so why was all of his grandmother's money taken away by the second wife?
Xie Mao was furious and rushed towards the old lady, snatching the thing from Xie Rui.
The old lady was so angry at her two grandsons' behavior that she was shaking all over and kept scolding them, but Xie Rui and Xie Mao were so busy snatching the banknotes and jewelry that they would never listen to her.
During the fight, the two even started fighting.
Xie Mao kicked up, intending to kick Xie Rui, but Xie Rui dodged and the kick instead hit the old lady's arm.
First there was a crisp sound.
Immediately afterwards, the old lady fell backwards, and the back of her head hit the wall with a bang.
The old lady screamed, rolled her eyes, and fainted.
Xie Mao didn't expect that he would kick the old lady. He knew that if his uncle came back and knew that he had hurt his grandmother, he would definitely not let him go.
Xie Mao instinctively wanted to shirk responsibility, "Third brother, it's all your fault! If you hadn't dodged, grandma wouldn't have been injured. It's all your fault."
Xie Rui was young after all, and didn't react, but Mrs. Peng saw through Xie Mao's thoughts.
"Brother Mao, it was you who kicked your grandmother down, not your third brother. Besides, if you hadn't hit your third brother first, he wouldn't have fought back.
As a brother, you not only beat your brother, but also snatched your grandmother's banknotes and even kicked her down. You are really lawless! Come, take Mao Ge'er to the ancestral hall to kneel and reflect on your mistakes."
Xie Mao's face suddenly changed. It was clearly Second Aunt who asked Xie Yuan and Xie Rui to snatch the grandmother's banknotes first, and then he took action. Second Aunt turned black and white and put everything on him. She just took advantage of his mother being stupid and his father being sold, and thought he was helpless and could be bullied at will.
Xie Mao was filled with hatred, but since Peng was his elder, he couldn't do anything. But he had no scruples towards Xie Rui.
He glared at Xie Rui fiercely, raised his foot, and kicked again. Xie Rui had never expected Xie Mao to dare to kick him, so he subconsciously dodged backwards, and in a panic, he stepped on the old lady's leg.
With a scream, the old lady woke up in pain, rolled her eyes, and fainted again.
This series of unexpected events finally startled the maids and servants of Mingsong Hall to come back to their senses, and they rushed towards the old lady in panic.
Xie Rui was startled by the old lady's scream. Seeing him stunned, Xie Mao rushed forward and punched him in the face. In an instant, the two of them started fighting again.
Mrs. Peng didn't expect that the old lady not only had her arm broken by the kick, but also her leg broken by the step. She subconsciously wanted to ask someone to call a doctor.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
If the old lady died, the money she left behind could only be distributed to the younger generations. Xie Changting was the eldest son, so the first wife would get most of it, but the second and third wives would also get a lot.
Liu was smart and saw through Peng's thoughts, but she didn't expose it.
Liu had been dissatisfied with the old lady for many years and had long wished she was dead. Anyway, today's incident had nothing to do with her. If the old lady really died, Xie Changting could not blame her.
Liu took a handkerchief, wiped her tears and cried to the old lady, but she did not ask anyone to call a doctor.
Mrs. Peng didn't cry, but just kept shouting at Xie Rui and Xie Mao to stop.
Xie Lan glanced at the messy scene sarcastically and shouted, "Someone, call a doctor."
A quarter of an hour later, the doctor was invited into Xie's house, where he gave the old lady acupuncture and medicine.
After being busy for a long time and saying a lot of confusing things, he finally left a prescription and left.
No one understood the sophisticated terms used by the old doctor.
I only understood one sentence, that the old lady was not dead, but had a stroke and could not move, and would have to be paralyzed in bed from now on.
Zhao Ma looked at the old lady lying on the bed with her mouth and eyes crooked, and suddenly remembered Xie Lan's words, "Grandma, I was free yesterday, so I read your fortune. The fortune shows that you are destined to be poor, and you have to donate all your coffins, otherwise you will be paralyzed in bed with broken arms and legs for the rest of your life, unable to move..."
Nanny Zhao shuddered. The eldest girl's divination had come true again!
