Chapter 1003: Chapter 1004: Damn it!

"Let’s eat first, and talk while we eat," Ge Liutao had already prepared dinner.

Chiang Songhai had just stepped outside for a moment, and now he saw that his eldest brother had carried Chiang Yuequn back, moving extremely slowly as if he were about to be crushed, each step seeming incredibly difficult.

He had thought about going over to help, but remembering what Chiang Songtao had said when he scolded Chiang Xiao earlier, he simply closed the courtyard door and came in.

"Time to eat."

Hearing a hint of unprecedented resentment in his voice, Chiang Xiao casually asked, "Chiang Songtao carried his little son back?"

Chiang Songhai asked in surprise, "Huh, Little, how did you know it was your uncle who carried him by himself?"

Chiang Songtao’s health now wasn’t what it used to be. He was the sole provider for the family’s sustenance, already worn to exhaustion, and the Old Chiang Family’s troubles over the past two years were enough to worry him to death.

Although Chiang Yuequn was thin, he was tall and in the prime of his youth; carrying him would certainly not be a small burden.

"He’s so stingy, those people would definitely ask for extra money to carry Chiang Yuequn down the mountain, and he probably wouldn’t want to pay, so naturally, he would carry him down himself."

Chiang Xiao burst into laughter. The thought of Chiang Songtao carrying Chiang Yuequn down the mountain was so hilarious, she just couldn’t help but take delight in his misfortune!

Upon hearing this, Chiang Songhai couldn’t help but shake his head as well.

It really could be the reason.

Mainly because the reputation of Chiang Songtao’s family in the village wasn’t good, so those people weren’t too willing to help out. Chiang Songtao felt that paying them was too much of a loss, preferring to wear himself out instead.

Indeed, before Chiang Songtao could bring Chiang Yuequn through the door, his legs trembled as he stepped over the threshold, going limp, and he stumbled forward into the house.

As he fell, Chiang Yuequn ended up crushing him further.

Chiang Songtao cried out in pain from underneath.

Only then did Ho Laidi rush to help them up.

"Good heavens, what’s happened here? Our Yuequn is covered in blood! And you, his father, why didn’t you let others carry him back?"

"It all costs money!" Chiang Songtao got up, only to uncontrollably fall back to the ground, unable to stand as he clutched his waist. He said angrily, "That bunch of bastards, bloodsuckers! Just like Second and that wretched girl Chiang Xiao!"

Chiang Xiao, in the main room, heard his voice and couldn’t help but sneer.

Chiang Songtao was cursing just like her grandfather used to curse his parents. She wondered if he wasn’t afraid of including himself in those curses.

She was the only one close enough to clearly hear what Chiang Songtao was saying; after the walls of the courtyard were raised, they couldn’t make out the words anymore.

But Chiang Songhai and the others could generally hear him cursing away, they just couldn’t make out exactly what he was cursing about.

"And what about Professor Cui and the others?" Ho Laidi asked, cursing under her breath as she helped Chiang Yuequn to sit down in the main room.

"One of them got injured, too. They said they were going to take him to the town hospital," was the reply.

Just as she finished speaking, Cui Dayuan and Laosi arrived, packed up their things, and were ready to leave.

Chiang Songtao was still sitting on the cold ground, unable to get up, Chiang Yuequn had sprained his ankle, and Chiang Baohe was still sleeping soundly inside. It was only Ho Laidi, a woman, who tried to stop them.

"Professor Cui, what are you all doing?" she asked.

"Our Laowu got injured, and the town hospital isn’t enough. We thought about it and decided to go to the county hospital; it’ll take a while, so we’ve packed up and are leaving now," they explained.

"But... but you haven’t paid yet!" Ho Laidi suddenly became anxious.

"Money? What money?" Cui Dayuan paused, then suddenly realized, "Oh, the rent, right?"

Eagerly, Ho Laidi nodded, "Yes, it was agreed upon, five yuan a day."
