[1] After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

7-8

Chapter 7: How about I marry into your family?

After Madam Wu and Madam Wang left, the chief looked at Mother Xiao with disappointment.

"If Hanzheng doesn't wake up, can't the both of you be stronger? You have already parted ways from the Xiao family. If you need to be strong, you must be."

Mother Xiao nodded with tears in her eyes. "Yes!"

She also resisted, just that she wasn't a match.

She could only blame herself for being too weak. She had almost failed to protect her daughter.

Chief Xiao looked at her weak and crying appearance and sighed. "I hope that Hanzheng can wake up soon."

Otherwise, this mother and her two younger children may not be able to survive.

Xiao Hanzheng was the most reputable young man in the Xiao's clan, raised personally by his mother. It would be a pity if he didn't wake up.

He would also feel very sad.

Mother Xiao cried, "Yes, if only Zheng'er could wake up soon."

Shi Qingluo didn't quite agree with her. She had always believed that it was better to rely on herself than others.

However, with Mother Xiao's character, it was useless to say anything.

Moreover, she was also trying her best to protect her daughter just now.

Unfortunately, the gap between their physical strength and ferocity was too great. Mother Xiao was also powerless.

The chief took out a money bag from his pocket. "Here are a few taels of silver that a few clan elders and I have gathered. Quickly use it to treat Hanzheng's illness."

Mother Xiao was touched. Previously, she had already borrowed six taels of silver from Chief Xiao's family to treat her son's illness.

Not only did he not urge her to return the money, but he had also gathered some silver with a few elders. Their families weren't very rich either.

Although they believed that the medicine Shi Qingluo had taken was effective, if their son's fever had not subsided, or if his body was weak after waking up, they still had to continue to source for medicine to replenish his body.

Therefore, even though the silver was too hot to hold, Mother Xiao had to take it.

She walked in front of him and knelt down to kowtow. "Thank you, chief and the elders, for your great kindness. When Zheng'er wakes up, we will definitely return them back to you."

If the chief and others hadn't helped her in this period, she didn't know how she could survive with her children.

In the past, the chief and the others had helped her other son, Liangduo. She had always remembered their great kindness.

She took a deep breath and said, "If Zheng'er doesn't wake up, I will still pay you back."

Even though Mother Xiao had a soft personality, she was a responsible person.

Chief Xiao waved his hand. "No rush. We need to save Hanzheng first."

Then, his gaze landed on Shi Qingluo. "Miss Shi, thank you for protecting Mother Xiao and her daughter just now."

They had coincidentally met Shi Qingluo chasing away the people from the Wu family when they arrived just now.

Otherwise, it would be a little troublesome if they had to chase people from the Wu family away,
