Chapter 127: Chapter 126: Fall by Oneself

Huang Xiangwen turned her head and saw Sanya following behind her. Seizing the moment when Matchmaker Zhang wasn’t looking, she stuck out her foot and tripped her.

The little girl was small, and she lost her balance immediately after being tripped, falling to the ground. She hit the ground hard, and her nose struck the stone-paved path in the yard, immediately starting to bleed.

Sanya cried bitterly from the pain, also interrupting what Matchmaker Zhang was about to say.

"Oh no, Sanya, how could you walk like that?"

Huang Xiangwen cried out in alarm and hurriedly crouched down to pick Sanya up.

Upon closer look, Sanya’s face was covered in blood, mixed with dirt and dust.

She was startled and speechless with shock.

Initially, Huang Xiangwen had not intended for Sanya to fall so badly; she just thought if the child fell, it could be a good excuse to coddle her and also prevent Matchmaker Zhang from speaking. She hadn’t expected such a severe fall.

Matchmaker Zhang took one look and was also startled, saying hastily, "Oh my, this is serious. Sanya has had a nasty fall, bleeding so much. We should quickly get Doctor Sun to look at her, a girl’s face should not be marked like this."

At first, Huang Xiangwen thought it was just a nosebleed, but upon a careful look, there was a large gash from Sanya’s nose up to her forehead. And that indeed meant her face was marred.

Sanya’s crying was almost heart-wrenching, and only then did Huang Xiangwen truly become frightened, crying out, "This is terrible, my poor child, how could you fall so hard? This will be the death of me..."

Huang Xiangwen lost her composure and sat on the ground holding Sanya and wept while Matchmaker Zhang hurriedly said, "Huang Second Sister-in-law, don’t cry now, it’s more important to see the doctor. Quickly bring the child out; I’ll go call for help!"

Matchmaker Zhang ran out of the Gu Family’s gate in haste, coincidentally spotting Wang Shun from the village passing by, and she quickly called out, "Shunzi, go quickly to the fields and find Elder Gu, tell them Sanya’s fallen and is covered in blood. They must hurry and think of something, or her face will be ruined!"

At that moment, Wang Shun saw Huang Xiangwen holding the blood-covered Sanya, her face filled with anxiety.

Huang Xiangwen also saw Wang Shun and cried out desperately, "Don’t go to the fields now, Shunzi, hurry to the town and call for Doctor Zhou. We must have Doctor Zhou from Jisheng Hall come!"

Sanya’s fall was so severe that it truly scared her; right now, she couldn’t care about anything else but to save the girl.

Only the large households from several neighboring towns could afford to call for Doctor Zhou of Qingshui Town—the amount of silver required was substantial, and Wang Shun was well aware of this.

But considering Sanya’s condition, the neighboring village’s Doctor Sun definitely wouldn’t suffice, no matter what, they had to try!

"Yeah!" Wang Shun responded and sprinted to the east end of the village to borrow a donkey cart, then rushed towards Qingshui Town.

The child was crying so fiercely that the neighbors were drawn out. Someone had gone to the fields to look for the Gu Family, and soon enough, members of the Gu Family, both old and young, had all rushed back.

"What happened to Sanya?"

When everyone saw Sanya’s wound, they were all shocked.

Huang Xiangwen, feeling guilty and scared, could only continue wailing uncontrollably.

Elder Huang, annoyed by the crying, scolded, "Are you mourning? I asked you what happened to the child!"

Matchmaker Zhang was also present at the scene. Since she did not see Huang Xiangwen intentionally stick out her foot to trip Sanya, she said, "The child wasn’t walking carefully and fell on her own. It just so happened that she hit her head on a stone. No one expected her to fall so badly."

Gu Feng’s face was stern as he said angrily, "Sanya is already five years old, could she really fall on her own like that?"

Gu Second Brother, distressed for his daughter, called out loudly, "Oh, father, mother, what does it matter how Sanya fell at this point? We should be thinking about what to do!"
