Chapter 147: Yang Zhiqing...This girl is probably out of her mind.
Yang Zhiqing had a miscarriage.
That night, she was first beaten by Chen Xing's mother and several uncles and aunts, and then was violently kicked and beaten by the furious Chen Xing's mother. Perhaps she was kicked in the stomach, as she saw blood at that moment.
In this era, as a young girl who probably had never been informed about such matters before going to the countryside, Yang Zhiqing likely did not know contraception methods.
As for Chen Jianshe, being from a rural family where having more children was considered auspicious, he wouldn't bother with contraception even if he knew some folk methods. He would simply enjoy himself, without paying attention to Yang Zhiqing's well-being.
Fortunately, Dr. Yao in the village was not an incompetent doctor; he had some skills. He immediately provided emergency treatment for Yang Zhiqing. However, he could only do so much. His expertise lay in treating injuries, not in gynecology.
However, Yang Zhiqing was severely injured, not only from the miscarriage but also from the beating. With her condition rapidly deteriorating, she needed to be taken to the hospital.
Despite feeling disgusted and nauseous, Chen Youshan had to send someone to take her to the hospital. Yang Zhiqing had done wrong, but they couldn't let her be beaten to death in their village. They couldn't predict what the consequences would be if news of such an incident spread.
Chen Youshan called Chen Fu and two capable aunts to send Yang Zhiqing to the county hospital overnight in a bullock cart. He asked the two aunts to accompany them because Yang Zhiqing was, after all, a young girl, and there were many things they couldn't do for her.
After they left, the villagers dispersed, each returning to their own homes. Some groups gathered to discuss what had happened. There weren't many entertainment activities in the village, so when such a rare incident occurred, they felt compelled to talk about it. Chen Xing did not go home with Chen Jianshe; she followed her mother, planning to return to her maternal home first. Chen Jianshe was supported by his two brothers, his face so swollen that he was barely recognizable, all due to his father's beating.
Liu Cui stood by, wiping her tears and tenderly asking her youngest son where it hurt.
Chen Jianshe remained silent, being led back by his two brothers. His mind was still flashing back to the scene he had just witnessed: the woman who had been affectionate with him not long ago lying lifelessly on the dirty ground, her blood staining the earth beneath her. That was his child...
However, his thoughts were soon interrupted as a small wooden toy gun came flying towards him. His face was already covered in injuries, and the slightest touch caused pain. The wooden gun landed on the ground, finally capturing Chen Jianshe's attention.
He stared blankly at the toy gun in front of him, the one he had made himself, his eldest son's treasure for several years. The wood was worn smooth from use. As his son grew older, he wanted it, and every day Chen Jianshe was reluctant to let go. He even carried it to school in his backpack.
Stiffly raising his head, Chen Jianshe could almost hear his neck crack. His three children stood across from him, and the toy gun had been thrown by them.
His eldest son held his younger siblings' hands. Both older ones, especially the eldest who was already in his teens, knew enough about life. They looked at him with eyes full of resentment. The youngest daughter, still too young to understand, rubbed her eyes and cried softly, reaching out to him as she saw him beaten like this, calling out "dad" while stretching her hand towards him.
