Chapter 157 The Leg Is Really Broken

Chapter 157 The Leg Is Really Broken

Shen Zhixia and Huo Chenzhou won't be staying here for long; they'll leave in a few days.

They originally thought they would stay at Mrs. Huo's place for a few more days and then leave.

As a result, Howard got into trouble the very next day.

Howard broke his leg.

Ya Ya insisted on eating wild game, so Howard went into the mountains. It was cold, and there wasn't much wild game in the mountains. Also, because of the heavy rain the day before, the road was very slippery, and Howard fell down.

There was no one around. It was only with great difficulty that a villager who had gone into the mountains found Howard, who had already been unconscious for some time.

Finding a doctor at this time is already difficult.

Huo Chenzhou had no choice but to go to town and invite the doctor from before. The doctor examined Huo Hua's legs, and his expression looked very serious.

In a short while, the entire Huo family arrived. They stood guard around Huo Hua, their expressions very serious.

Howard's condition looked terrible; his thigh was a complete bloody mess, and just looking at it was horrifying.

Tears welled up in Huo's mother's eyes: "What kind of karma is this? You were perfectly fine the two days ago, how did you get injured now? You said you're not in good health, why did you have to go into the mountains? You shouldn't have gone into the mountains."

“Last time, Lao Wang went into the mountains and there was a landslide. He fell to his death. I clearly warned you not to go, so why did you go in?”

Seeing his mother crying so hard, Huo Chenzhou said helplessly, "Mom, don't cry. Let's wait until the doctor has examined her. Maybe there's still hope."

The situation may not be the worst yet. If the doctors say it can be cured, then no matter how much it costs, they will definitely cure Howard.

Mrs. Huo nodded, but her face was still streaked with tears.

Howard was still unconscious, so she couldn't say much, only hoping that Howard would wake up soon.

The doctor carefully examined Howard's legs. His legs were covered in blood and flesh, and it was very cold outside. He had been unconscious outside for two hours, and his legs were frozen stiff and very hard to the touch.

"His leg is broken to the bone, not just on the surface. Even the meridians inside are damaged. Even if it heals, he won't be able to walk," the doctor said helplessly.

Upon hearing the doctor's words, Mrs. Huo felt dizzy. She grabbed the doctor's hand and pleaded, "Isn't there any other way? He's only in his twenties, so young. He has a long life ahead of him. We can't let it be ruined like this!"

"Doctor, I'm begging you, you must have a way. Please save him. I'll give you any amount of money if you can save him."

The doctor said with difficulty, "If it had been discovered earlier, there might have been a chance of a cure, but you discovered it too late. I am just an ordinary doctor, and I really don't have the ability to cure him."

Mrs. Huo felt as if the sky had fallen.

The doctor said, "Right now, all I can do is prescribe some medicine to save his legs and prevent them from being amputated, otherwise the consequences would be even worse."

Mrs. Huo quickly said, "Okay, then hurry up and prescribe the medicine for him."

She looked around and suddenly asked, "Where's Feng Xiuhe? Huo Hua is in such a terrible situation, why isn't she here? What kind of wife is she?"

Previously, Mrs. Huo had treated Feng Xiuhe very well and never questioned what she did. This was the first time she had criticized Feng Xiuhe.

After all, Huo Hua was already married, but no matter what happened, he was the one who shouldered everything. Feng Xiuhe was like an invisible person; you could hardly see her at all.

Huo Chunyan said, "I just went out and asked, and someone said she took Yaya out to play."

Huo's mother said, "Huo Hua is in trouble. This is a big deal. Quickly send someone to inform her. How can she still be playing at a time like this? Huo Hua went into the mountains alone and was unconscious for more than two hours. If Feng Xiuhe had paid even a little attention and taken people to look for Huo Hua, his condition wouldn't be so serious. But she was out playing and didn't care about Huo Hua's condition at all. What kind of wife is she?"

“Huo Hua is usually so good to her. Even if she catches a minor cold, she would stay by Huo Hua’s side and take care of him without taking off her clothes. But Huo Hua has such a big problem, and she doesn’t know anything about it. If I had known she was this kind of person, I would never have agreed to this marriage.”

Huo's mother didn't have high requirements for her daughter-in-law. She just hoped that they could live a good life together. When Huo Hua was going to marry Feng Xiuhe, Feng Xiuhe showed that she liked Huo Hua very much. Huo's mother was also very happy. She hoped that Huo Hua could marry someone he liked and that the two of them could support each other in life, so that their lives would get better and better.

In the end, it was Howard who put in all the effort, while Feng Xiuhe did nothing. Now that Howard has broken his leg, Feng Xiuhe doesn't even know.

Seeing Huo's mother crying so hard, Shen Zhixia comforted her, "Mom, don't get agitated. My sister-in-law probably hasn't received the news yet. She must be very worried about my brother too."

Mrs. Huo said, "What is she worried about? I don't think she cares even if she knows this news. If she really cared about Huo Hua, she would know about Huo Hua's affairs all the time."

Huo Chenzhou didn't speak, but just watched with a sullen face as the doctor bandaged Huo Hua's wound.

Shen Zhixia didn't know what to say, so she fell silent.

On the other side...

Feng Xiuhe wasn't taking Ya Ya out to play. Zhang Chuan suddenly had a brain fart and insisted on seeing Ya Ya. She originally wanted to refuse outright, but since Feng's parents had already accepted Zhang Chuan's money and Zhang Chuan already knew that Ya Ya was his daughter, she was also afraid that Zhang Chuan would expose her to the Huo family. So she had no choice but to agree to go.

As a result, when she arrived there, she heard that Howard had broken his leg.

Because a rumor had circulated before, Feng Xiuhe was not in a hurry to believe it this time. However, many villagers went to see Huo Hua and said that Huo Hua was still in a coma and that the entire Huo family had gone to see him.

Howard's situation is true, and the doctor also said that his leg is truly incurable.

Feng Xiuhe's aunt said, "It's true. If this news is false, I'll wash my hair upside down. I just went to see Huo Hua and heard the doctor say with my own voice that Huo Hua's leg can't be cured."

"He'll be crippled from now on!"

Disabled.

Feng Xiuhe was completely stunned and suddenly didn't know what to do.

She doesn't work. Since marrying Howard, she hasn't done any farm work or housework. She really can't do anything.

What if something happens to Howard?
