I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 182: Chapter 181: Forgive Her This Once

Li Fengzhi also turned pale. After that day, she didn’t dare to cause trouble for Luo Er’s family anymore. Not only her, but even her sons were all frightened!

Zhang Shuncai paced back and forth in the room, his brows furrowed tightly enough to pinch a mosquito to death. His mind was now filled with Beisitian’s smile as she left. The more he thought about that smile, the more eerie and dangerous it became.

Sweat beaded on Zhang Shuncai’s forehead. After stopping, he said, ”No, we have to give her an explanation for this matter, or who knows what she might do!”

The thought of that pack of wolves made his palms sweat, and recalling Beisitian’s endless tricks, especially those incidents that happened to his family the first time—no one knew it was her doing, and they even prayed to Huang Daxian for a long time!

Unbeknownst to them, who would have thought it was the widow who incited a pack of wolves!

Zhang Lianqiao threw a human bone under someone else’s house, and with Beisitian’s character, who knows how she’ll retaliate against them!

Zhang Shuncai felt that if things continued this way, their family would end up in deep trouble.

Evidence?

Didn’t Beisitian say there’s no evidence, but she remembered?

Zhang Shungui and Zhang Shunfu also sat on the bench, one sighing and the other frowning silently.

This matter was utterly disgraceful. The three of them had been scared by Beisitian. Now that their sister had done such a thing, to put it bluntly, it was too vile and lacking in integrity!

No matter how you put it, they were in the wrong, and Beisitian would definitely cling to this to cause trouble.

The usually arrogant three brothers were now sitting gloomily trying to figure out how to satisfy Beisitian.

”Tomorrow you should apologize to the widow, you must make her less angry!” Zhang Shunfu glared at Zhang Lianqiao and said.

He hadn’t married yet, and if Beisitian set them up again, would he be able to marry? All his money would be squandered!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lianqiao turned pale, thinking that if this got out, there wouldn’t be anyone from the neighboring ten miles willing to propose marriage.

Moreover, she’s known as a good child in the village. If she’s really forced to apologize in public, she might even have suicidal thoughts.

”No, Third Brother, that would make life unbearable for me.” Zhang Lianqiao pleaded, ignoring the burning pain on her backside.

”You didn’t let others live, why should others let you live!” Zhang Shunfu glared at her, knowing she was just causing trouble.

Zhang Shunfu had an honest appearance but a sharp tongue, and now feeling out of sorts, he naturally showed no mercy to his sister.

Seeing that pleading with him was useless, Zhang Lianqiao turned to hug Li Fengzhi’s arm, ”Mom~ don’t take me out, it’s too humiliating... Boo hoo...”

Li Fengzhi only had this one daughter, and saying she wasn’t heartbroken would be a lie, but she was also afraid of Beisitian’s revenge. Hearing her daughter’s cries, she felt both distressed and annoyed, momentarily speechless.

Li Fengzhi said nothing, but it really scared Zhang Lianqiao. This family only had her mother to rely on. If even her mother didn’t speak up for her, she’d be completely finished.

Zhang Shungui frowned and stayed silent for a long time before speaking, ”Tomorrow, the three of us should first buy some things and see what Beisitian’s attitude is, then decide what to do next.”

Everyone thought this was a good idea. In the middle of the night, their minds weren’t clear enough to think of a better plan, so they decided to go and see tomorrow.

After Beisitian returned home, she didn’t tell Mrs. Qin what happened, but since Mrs. Qin was no longer blind, she could see from Beisitian’s face that she wasn’t happy.

”Little Tian’er, how did you know it was Zhang Lianqiao?” Mrs. Qin asked, thinking those bastards were more likely the culprits.

Beisitian smiled faintly, ”Those three brothers wouldn’t dare pull any tricks anymore. Li Fengzhi is just a shrew, with no brains and even less courage. Only Zhang Lianqiao is cunning and daring, so it’s very likely her.”

She didn’t need to confirm who it was, just knowing it was from the Ba Wang Zhang Family was enough, and they’d definitely have a clear answer tomorrow.

If it was Zhang Lianqiao, Beisitian planned to make her learn her lesson slowly.

After returning, Beisitian went to sleep.

At dawn the next day, there was a knock on the door. Beisitian got dressed, went to open the door, and saw Zhang Shuncai and Zhang Shungui with smiles on their faces, holding things in their hands, standing at the door.

”Little Tian’er, we startled you yesterday, we’re here to apologize!” Zhang Shungui said. He was better at speaking than Zhang Shuncai, so they planned for him to be the spokesperson this time.

”It’s just a dead man’s bone, it’s not like I haven’t seen one before.” Beisitian said indifferently.

Zhang Shuncai wiped his sweat upon hearing this, having never seen a dead man’s bone before. Last night was his first time; even if there were some dug up by wild dogs in graveyards, he’d never looked closely before.

Zhang Shungui chuckled a few times, ”Little Tian’er, you’re really brave. We’d be scared out of our wits!”

He tried to flatter her, but saw no change in Beisitian’s expression.

After thinking for a moment, he said, ”Little Tian’er, since we’re already here, why don’t we go inside and talk?”

Beisitian stood at the doorway without moving, ”No one is up yet, is it appropriate for you to enter?”

”It’s not appropriate, not appropriate, let’s just talk here.” Zhang Shungui quickly responded, thought about it, and then lowered his voice to say, ”Little Tian’er, yesterday’s incident was our fault. Zhang Lianqiao, that foolish girl, was out of her mind. Could you, please, let her off this once?”

The two brothers discussed it at length in the morning. Initially, they thought of denying everything and then doing a favor for Beisitian. But later, they realized this widow wasn’t easy to fool, so they decided to admit it and see what she wanted.

Confirming it was indeed Zhang Lianqiao, Beisitian wasn’t surprised at all. Her eyes flashed coldly, and she said calmly, ”Your family encountered such a matter, and a few words will make it go away?”

Of course, it wouldn’t just go away!

Zhang Shungui smiled bitterly. If this had happened to their family, they’d have called all their brothers to wreck someone’s place!

”Alright, I’m not a narrow-minded person. Zhang Lianqiao is, after all, an unmarried girl. Spreading such a reputation isn’t good. Since she is still part of your family, this matter will be up to your family to handle then.”

Both brothers breathed a sigh of relief at once, then awaited Beisitian’s conditions.

”Just like last winter, supply food for my big guys for three years straight, and this matter will be forgotten.” Beisitian said.

The two brothers exchanged glances. The outcome was lighter than they expected, though three consecutive winters would be quite taxing!

It was all that foolish girl’s fault, they thought. Time to find her a husband quickly and get a good bride price back. After all, this trouble was originally her doing!
