Chapter 351 Extra Chapter 12: The Women's Federation (Part 3)

After scolding Tian Xiong, Jiang Moli suggested taking Liu Dacui to the town's health center for treatment.

The woman, using the excuse that there was too much work to do in the fields, refused to let the man go.

Jiang Moli removed the splint from Liu Dacui's arm. The injured area was swollen like a steamed bun, and it was also black and purple, emitting a fishy smell.

"Her arm is already inflamed and infected. If it's not treated in time, this arm will be useless! Aren't you afraid that she'll be crippled and become a burden to your son?"

Tian's mother might not care whether Liu Dacui lived or died, but since it involved her son's future, she couldn't help but worry about it.

"Just see the village doctor, it'll be fine. How much would it cost to get treatment in town?"

"If you're unwilling to spend money, then keep a close eye on your son. Whether Liu Dacui can have a son depends on what kind of seed he sows. Don't you know the saying 'you reap what you sow'? You're clearly planting beans, but you expect to grow watermelons?"

This theory undoubtedly overturned the traditional views of rural people.

Since ancient times, a woman's inability to bear a son has been considered an unforgivable original sin, deserving of worldly condemnation and censure.

The women who had been stigmatized for not being able to give birth to sons all placed their hopes and gratitude on Jiang Moli.

Hopefully, what Jiang Moli said is true, and it's not their fault that they didn't have a son!
"Everyone else can have sons, but she can't. That means she's useless. What does it have to do with my son!"

Mother Tian clearly could not tolerate or accept that her daughter-in-law's inability to give birth to a grandson was actually her son's problem.

Her son is fine!
Jiang Moli explained the knowledge of biological genetics to the public in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

"...I stand by my words, and if you don't believe me, you can ask a doctor. In addition, long-term drinking and smoking can also damage a man's body and lead to infertility."

As soon as he said that, all eyes turned to Tian Xiong.

Tian Xiong had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and he also liked to drink.

Tian Xiong held a half-smoked cigarette, unsure whether to smoke it or throw it away.

Jiang Moli steered the conversation back to the main topic, "Sharpening the axe won't delay the work of chopping wood. Now that Liu Dacui's arm is healed, won't she be able to work more efficiently? I'll cover her medical expenses, is that alright?"

Upon hearing that it wouldn't cost any money, Tian's mother finally relented.

“Okay, I’ll go with you. She rarely goes out and doesn’t know the way.”

They were afraid Liu Dacui would run away.

Jiang Moli didn't expose Tian's mother's intentions. She re-bandaged Liu Dacui's injured arm and let her go to town with them.

"Our regimental commander's wife is such a kind person. She even paid out of her own pocket to get Da Cui's arm treated."

"Yes."

"Da Cui was lucky to have met such a benefactor!"

As Jiang Moli and her entourage left the village, the villagers expressed their goodwill towards them.

Affection level +14, 140000 yuan received.

……

"Why did you only arrive now? The wound has worsened. If you had come two more days later, you wouldn't have been able to save your arm!"

In the infirmary, the doctor set Liu Dacui's bones while scolding her.

"Doctor, thank you for your trouble. Please make sure you heal her arm."

Tian's mother spoke earnestly, and those unaware of the situation might have thought she was a kind mother-in-law worried about her daughter-in-law. In reality, she was worried that Liu Dacui was disabled and unable to do heavy work. Besides, it didn't cost her any money, so she figured she might as well treat her.

Jiang Moli chatted with Tian's mother, "Your son is quite capable. He owns a house, raises livestock, and can even afford cigarettes. He must earn a lot a year, right?"

"He's not very capable; he's far inferior to you city folks."

Although Mother Tian spoke modestly, her face beamed with joy, and her eyes and brows betrayed her undisguised pride and self-satisfaction.

Her son is certainly capable! "It's good to be able to make money, but you can't break the law for it. If you get caught by the police, you'll go to jail. Think about it, if your son goes to jail, who will you be able to rely on? What kind of life will Liu Dacui and her two daughters have to live, right?"

Mother Tian was startled. "You can't say things like that! My son would never do anything bad!"

Besides her arm, Jiang Moli also had the doctor give Liu Dacui's other injuries on her face and body a simple treatment.

"Madam Commander, we're sorry to have troubled you today. We still have work to do in the fields, so we'll head back now."

As soon as the treatment ended, Tian's mother grabbed Liu Dacui and tried to leave, afraid that she would have to pay for it.

“I have some old clothes that I don’t wear anymore. I’ll come to the town in a couple of days to get my dressing changed. Da Cui, come to the family compound and take these old clothes back with you.”

Mother Tian stopped. "Do I need to change the dressing? Does that cost money?"

Hearing that changing the dressing wouldn't cost any money, Tian's mother left happily.

……

Jiang Moli returned to the Women's Federation around noon.

Even from some distance from the office, I caught a glimpse of a familiar military uniform inside. When I got closer, it was none other than Lu Cheng.
"Xiao Jiang, you're finally back! Commander Lu has been waiting for you for a while!" Li Hong greeted her warmly.

Jiang Moli walked up to the man. "Is there something you need?"

Lu Cheng lowered his eyes and smiled, "It's nothing, I was just passing by and decided to pick you up to go home together."

Li Hong immediately said, "There's nothing much to do this morning, and it's time to go back. Xiao Jiang, you and Commander Lu can go back now."

After briefly reporting Liu Dacui's situation to Li Hong, Jiang Moli left with Lu Cheng.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"Didn't I tell you I'd come pick you up from get off work?"

Jiang Moli scoffed, "Do you have that much free time?"

Lu Cheng smiled, lifting one arm for her to lean on for support, while carrying her lunchbox in the other hand, and they chatted as they walked.

"How's your first day working at the Women's Federation? Is your body able to handle it?"

"It's alright, I went to Xiangshan Village this morning..."

The women's federation staff watched the couple's affectionate and well-matched figures from behind through the window, and everyone was incredibly envious.

Not only is the man she married capable, but she's also pampered and spoiled.

……

When they arrived at the gate of the family compound, Lu Cheng stopped and handed the lunchbox he had been carrying all the way to Jiang Moli.

"I have to go to the brigade to report on my work, so I won't have lunch with you. I'll probably be back late tonight, so Xiaoyue will bring you dinner."

"Aren't you going to eat lunch?"

"I brought some dry food, I won't go hungry!"

Watching the man's tall figure hurriedly leave, Jiang Moli belatedly realized what had happened.

He wasn't free; he was worried about her and went to her new workplace to support her.

He was making it clear to everyone that she was his wife, and anyone who wanted to bully her would have to think twice.

At that moment, she truly felt loved.

A man who truly loves you will give you money, love, himself, and time. When you need him, he will crawl to your side, even if it means crawling.

Love is all-consuming, but it also depends on human effort.
