Chapter 560 - 558 Grinding
Left with no choice, Second Uncle Sun had to ask his wife and daughter-in-law to buy some tofu, pluck radishes and cabbage from the Sun Family Garden, and barely managed to prepare a few dishes for the occasion—it was a makeshift effort.
Once the funeral was over and relatives and friends had gone, the people of the Sun family were all complaining incessantly, each clutching their backs as they returned to their rooms to lie down.
It was then that Mutou found the opportunity to ask Wang Yongzhen what exactly had happened to his father. Wasn’t he perfectly fine? How did falling over drunk lead to his death?
Full of bitterness and regret, Wang Yongzhen, upon hearing her younger son’s question, couldn’t help but speak. She still cared about keeping face, so she vaguely mentioned that the Wang Family had built a new house and everyone went to offer their congratulations. They drank too much on the way back home.
He had fallen over, and at that moment he passed out. She was startled, but Old Lady Sun insisted there was nothing wrong with him—no cuts, no bruises, so how could there be any issue?
Who would have thought that by the next day things would feel off? They invited the village doctor, who said his head was injured and that he should be taken to Doctor Ma in town.
But Old Lady Sun, unwilling to spend the money, ridiculously claimed that the life of a country person was cheap and that after lying down for a few days, he would be fine. Little did she know that he would be gone by the afternoon!
Having said it, Wang Yongzhen immediately regretted it. If she had known it would turn out like this, she wouldn’t have listened to Old Lady Sun and would have taken Sun Daming to the town. Maybe he could have been saved – but now...
Mutou was at a loss for words and could only console Wang Yongzhen.
Little did they know that Sun Laoer’s Wife had overheard this conversation and had turned around to go to Old Lady Sun’s room, where she exaggerated the story in her complaint.
That really angered Old Lady Sun.
