Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked. The bride's sudden suicide on her wedding night was already a scandalous and horrifying event. Now, hearing what Old Doctor Ji said, they couldn't help but widen their eyes. Their gazes at Da Qiang were filled with suspicion.
It was supposed to be the time for the newly - weds to enjoy their wedding night, but the bride had done such a thing. Who knew if Da Qiang had forced her?
But this thought didn't seem right either. They were legally married, wed in a proper ceremony. There was no reason for the bride to be so reluctant about consummating the marriage.
Even if the bride was timid and shy for a moment, it shouldn't have pushed her to this extreme. So, people couldn't help but start speculating whether the bride had disagreed with the marriage from the very beginning.
"Hey, what do you think is going on? No matter what, she's already married. She shouldn't have caused such a scene on such a happy day," someone said vaguely and ambiguously.
Immediately, someone beside them picked up the conversation. "Who knows? Maybe he got rich and took a fancy to the girl, then forced her into marriage."
Da Qiang, who had been in a daze, finally came to his senses after hearing their remarks. Instantly, he got excited.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Shujuan and I have been together for three years. This marriage was set when I had nothing. How can you say I forced her into marriage?!"
Da Qiang's face turned bright red. He almost wanted to rush up and fight those gossiping people to the death.
Those who had been talking knew they had been heard by Da Qiang and looked embarrassed, but they still didn't give in.
"We were just saying it casually. Why are you so angry? Besides, the bride is in this state. We don't know what's going on, so we're just guessing. If we said something wrong, please forgive us. What are you going to do?"
Da Qiang gasped for breath, so choked up that he couldn't say a word.
However, Yun Que'er could tell that it wasn't that Da Qiang was in the wrong. It was just that he really didn't know what was going on.
As he had said, they had been together for so many years, and everyone in the family knew about it. Two people who were obviously going to be together suddenly had an incident on their wedding night. Who could understand what was going on?
Old Doctor Ji got impatient. "What's the point of talking about this now? Hurry up and send the girl to the hospital! What's more important, face or a life?"
Da Qiang's mother finally came to her senses, but there was still obvious doubt in her eyes.
"We... we don't mean that. Old Ji, we've been relatives for so many years. Tell me the truth. Is it really that strange? Can you really not treat her?"
Yun Que'er turned to look at the woman, shocked. Was this woman's thought process different from a normal person's?
If it were someone else, not to mention it was their newly - wedded daughter - in - law, even if it were a complete stranger, in such a situation, they would definitely send the person to the hospital immediately.
Moreover, since Old Doctor Ji had already said so, what was there to hesitate about?
Old Doctor Ji looked speechless. Obviously, he didn't know how to explain it to them.
At this time, Ji Chengxuan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.
"The girl has gone into shock. If we send her to the hospital for rescue and blood transfusion now, there might still be a chance to save her. If we delay for another ten minutes, it will really be too late."
Ji Chengxuan's words finally woke up Da Qiang's father, who had been standing outside the house, at a loss. Whether they could marry a daughter - in - law was one thing, and whether it was embarrassing or not didn't matter. The most important thing was that if Wang Shujuan really died, their family would be in big trouble.
Finally, everyone started to move. Some carried the girl, and some called for a car. They carried Wang Shujuan out in a hurry. Da Qiang's family also quickly followed, and some were busy contacting Wang Shujuan's family.
After all, it was such a big event, and the bride's family had to be informed.
After watching this farce, Yun Que'er squeezed back to Yun Fu Jin's side.
Yun Fu Jin saw that Yun Que'er didn't look well. He thought she was scared, so he quickly held her hand and said a little reproachfully,
"Look at you, girl. I told you not to go and look. Are you scared?"
Yun Que'er shook her head absent - mindedly. It wasn't because she was scared. She just couldn't figure out what the two - word, mysterious task issued by the system meant.
Just as she was thinking, out of the corner of her eye, Yun Que'er suddenly noticed that Ji Chengxuan had also gone out with them. His hand was on Wang Shujuan's wrist, and it seemed that he had inserted a needle.
Yun Que'er frowned in confusion. Didn't Ji Chengxuan think that Wang Shujuan was already so badly injured that he couldn't treat her?
However, looking at Ji Chengxuan's calm and composed appearance just now, it seemed as if he had been well - prepared.
Yun Que'er began to question Ji Chengxuan's motives. She was about to chase after him to see what he had done, but Yun Fu Jin beside her thought she still wanted to watch the excitement and pulled her away.
Watching the crowd gradually walk away, Yun Que'er had no choice but to give up.
But after returning to the room, Yun Que'er couldn't fall asleep.
On the one hand, she was really confused about the system's inexplicable instructions. On the other hand, she was feeling sad and sighing.
What was supposed to be a happy wedding now seemed no different from a funeral...
Yun Que'er couldn't sleep peacefully in this yard, so she simply got up. Yun Fu Jin beside her couldn't sleep either. Hearing the noise, he turned his head.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm going to the toilet," Yun Que'er lied casually.
Yun Fu Jin thought Yun Que'er was scared and was worried about her, so he followed her.
Yun Que'er squatted in the dry toilet, enduring the unpleasant smell while staring blankly at the sky.
It was really strange. Why did she always feel that something big was happening in the dark?
Yun Que'er got up with a heavy heart and was about to go out when she heard a commotion in the alley outside.
Hearing the faint sound, Yun Que'er thought there was a thief and almost shouted for help. But just as the words were about to come out of her mouth, she heard a man's oily voice.
"I've missed you so much. Why didn't you come out when I called you during the day?"
Then there was a woman's exclamation. "What are you doing? There are still people sleeping inside!"
Yun Que'er blushed. She thought it was a young couple who couldn't control their passion and had come out for a tryst at night. She quickly held her breath and slipped out bit by bit.
Looking up, Yun Fu Jin standing outside also looked obviously uncomfortable. He must have heard it too.
Yun Que'er sighed in her heart. Yun Fu Jin was already eighteen years old. A young and energetic man like him couldn't stand hearing such things. She quickly pulled Yun Fu Jin and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the conversation between the two people outside the courtyard wall came over clearly.
"Good Shujuan, you won't wake them up. I called you out during the day, but you refused to come. Everyone in his family is busy. Who has the time to care about you?"
Yun Que'er was stunned. Shujuan? Isn't that the bride?
