Mother-in-law not feeling well

Tyler, who was in the middle of tidying up the table, dropped his rag and quickly stepped out.

Seeing the newcomer was his cousin, Daniel, he asked directly: "What happened to my mom?"

Daniel anxiously said: "Your mom had a fight with Sylvia! She passed out, you need to hurry and check on her!"

Upon hearing this, Tyler's expression changed instantly.

"Where is she? Take me there quickly!"

He was about to leave, then suddenly halted his steps and turned to look at Elena, who was standing in the courtyard.

Thinking that he was going to ask for his wife's opinion, Daniel became even more anxious.

Are you seriously looking for your wife's approval when it's a matter of life and death?

Is there something wrong with Tyler? Just as Daniel was about to speak, he saw Tyler quickly passing by Elena, taking a few steps to stride over the dirt wall behind Elena, with a push from his foot, and he just vanished!

Daniel: … Elena: … That wall is two meters high! Did Tyler just jump over it?

The first one to recover in the courtyard was the Joel. His round eyes wide open, clapping his baby hands excitedly, he exclaimed,

"Dad, Dad is so cool!"Jadel and the Jaden stood up simultaneously,

"Dad can fly! We want to learn that too, be as cool as Dad!"

Elena snapped back to reality, remembering Daniel's words, holding Joel and heading outside, "Joel, Mommy is taking you to find Daddy."

Hearing that Elena was also going, Daniel's heart gave a sudden throb.

If this woman goes as well, wouldn't there be drama throughout the night?

He really wanted to stop her, but he dared not.

There was no way around it, after all, Elena had her fierce reputation.

Everyone in the village knew better to mess with a big burly man than to cross Elena!

Since he could not stop her, he decided to go and inform Mr. Gilbert first, so he could be prepared.

With that thought, Daniel turned around and darted outside, taking a shortcut to appear in front of Elena.

No sooner had he started walking than he heard footsteps behind him.

Turning around, it was the Jadel and the Jaden. Seeing him pant, the brothers hastily asked, "Uncle, why aren't you climbing over the wall with our dad?"

Daniel: ... Do you think everyone is like your dad?

Such a high wall, if a normal person can climb over it, I would call him Uncle! Probably, Tyler was the only one in the village who had the ability to stay in the army because of his skills, and even became a military officer.

It was supposed he would fare the most successful among their generation, but who would have thought he would get such a wife...

Daniel glanced at Elena, who was trailing behind, and sighed deeply, then hurried on his way.

On their way to the Gilbert family home, Elena spotted their own run-down, backyard plot.

She and Tyler lived in the old Gilbert family house, Tyler's parents had been driven out by the previous owners and now lived in the yard of Tyler's uncle's house.

The vast Gilbert family house was occupied only by their family Relatives. In particular, such a large piece of land was vacant without any crops.

It was quite a pity.

The previous Elena really did not know how to live! In this era, you needed ration tickets for food and clothing.

If you could grow some vegetables and grains on your own, you would never go hungry.

Elena, amid her heartache, took time to calculate things in her mind, realizing that in a while, she could grow some crops.

She quietly noted this matter down and continued to move forward, cradling Joel.

* At Tyler's uncle's house.

"Tyler, I really didn't mean to push mom.

She insisted on coming over to give my son 'spoiled' water."

"My son has a fever, how could "spoiled' water cure him?

If it causes any problems, what am I going to do?"

"I was reasoning with mom but she wouldn't listen.

I just wanted to dump the spoiled Water, I didn't mean to push her!"

Sylvia was sitting on the ground, crying profusely.

She was cradling her child in her arms, while Mrs. Gilbert was lying beside her.

She felt more wrong.

Mrs. Gilbert refused to take her feverish child to the hospital and had even wanted to feed him spoiled Water!

Unfortunately, Mrs. Gilbert was frail, and fell with the smallest push.

She had no idea who to talk to about this matter, so she could only cry.

Tyler picked up his mother without a word, examined the wound on the back of her head, and instructed Daniel, who had just entered.

"I'm taking mom to the health center.

You take the boy."

"Are you going to carry her there like that?" Daniel felt that was inappropriate.

"The health center is far away. Let me find a plank and we can carry her together.

Otherwise, you won't be able to handle it alone."

Saying this, he hurried off to find a plank. With Daniel out of sight, Tyler turned to Sylvia on the ground and said: "My mother fainted, and there's no one to stop you from going to the hospital now.

Hurry up."

"You make it sound easy.

All of the family's money is with mom.

How can I go to a hospital empty-handed?" cried Sylvia.

If she had money, she would have taken her child to the hospital long ago.

Would she have had to struggle with Mrs. Gilbert?

At her response, Tyler's brow furrowed more tightly.

Just as he was about to say something, he noticed Elena entering the yard with their child. He changed the subject: "Do you have any money?"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the courtyard turned their attention towards Elena.

Raising an eyebrow, Elena wondered why they were asking her for money right after her arrival.

Seeing Elena's reaction, Sylvia closed her eyes in despair, holding her child and wiping away tears.

Elena was infamous for her selfishness.

Anyone else might have given her money to take the child to see a doctor, but Elena was the last person they could expect this from.

In saying this, Tyler had indirectly refused to give her money... Elena sensed the heavy mood in the courtyard, and upon seeing the child in Sylvia's arms, whose face was burning red from fever, she vaguely guessed what had happened.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard Sylvia crying softly, "Forget it, I won't ask you for money anymore.

I'll go up the mountain and dig up some herbs to feed my child.

Whether he lives or dies, it's in the hands of the heavens now..."

These words ignited a fire in Elena's heart.

What did she mean by 'digg up some herbs'? Was she playing with the life of the child just because she was mad? With this thought, Elena began searching her pockets.

She remembered that the original Elena kept her money close.

Soon, she found the inner pocket where she kept her money, pulled out a piece and handed it to Sylvia.

"Stop crying, all you do is cry and it's giving me a headache.

Quickly, take this money and get the child medical help!"

She maintained her notorious reputation, even while giving money.

Sylvia stared in disbelief at the money in front of her.

"Elena gave her money? Really? Is this the Elena she knows? Could it be that Elena is feverish and confused as well?

Or did Elena have a fever and hallucinate because she was so worried about her child? Seeing Sylvia dazed for quite some time without responding, Elena couldn't help but frown,

"Are you going or not? If you don't go, your child will have a fever-induced delirium!"

Upon hearing this, Sylvia jerked up, clutched the money, and ran off with her child.

When she reached the gate of the yard, she suddenly paused, turned back, and shouted,

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Then she rushed to the health clinic without looking back.

This scene also left the onlooking Jaden in the yard dumbfounded.

He looked suspiciously at Elena,

"Why did you suddenly become so generous?"

Elena turned back to look at the two boys who were watching the excitement at the gate of the yard, thinking this was a good chance to change their opinion of her.

She pretended to be haughty and snorted coldly, "Can't I be in a good mood today?

When I'm in a good mood, I'm generous to everyone."

Saying that, she pulled out a coin from her pocket and handed it to the two brothers.

"It's too hot today, use it to buy some soda at the village entrance to relieve the heat."

Upon seeing the money, Jadel's eyes lit up immediately, and even the way he looked at Elena lost its former hostility.

"Alright!" He responded cheerfully, took the money and ran off with his two younger brothers.

Tyler watched this scene unfold, his eyebrows raised in surprise.

Elena seemed to be genuinely different this time... But he wondered how long this could last.

One day, two days? As he was thinking, he heard Elena say, "The shattered pieces on the ground need to be swept clean, or someone might get hurt by stepping on them!"

She instinctively reached for the broom leaning against the wall, but as soon as she touched it, a woman snatched it away.

"I'll do it!" No sooner had she spoken than the woman began to sweep, skillfully and efficiently.

However, as she swept, she still glanced at Elena, her eyes filled with fear.

After reviewing her original owner's memories, Elena recognized this woman as her sister-in-law, Sonita.

She was also one of the victims of the original owner's bullying.

Having been in the Gilbert family for ten years, Sonita was gossip fodder because she was unable to have a child.

This left her unable to hold her head high, both in the village and at home.

Feeling guilty towards the old Gilbert family, she not only volunteered to do all the housework, but also barely ate her meals, fearful that having even a morsel more would annoy her family.

Living every day with extreme caution and anxiety.

Seeing her tidy up the place in no time at all, Elena suddenly didn't know what to do.

Looking at Tyler, she suddenly remembered that when she just entered, it seemed like Tyler was about to reach into his pocket.

Could it be that this man actually had money, but still let her pay?

Well, alright.

Elena thought, I carry your children and cook for you, yet you play sly tricks with me, huh? But then again, considering the original character's temperament, if she knew Tyler had money, she would use all means to grab it.

Even if she took the money, she would spend it all on herself and wouldn't spare a dime for the male lead's children.

Having thought of this, she sighed, deciding to let it be.

Anyway, she still had some money in hand right now, she didn't care about that anymore.

Just then, Daniel, who had just left, rushed back, dragging an abandoned wooden door panel, and brought back a man in a hurry.

"Tyler, quick, lift your mother up, let's take your mother over together."

"Alright." Only then did Tyler lay his mother on the wooden panel.

As soon as they started carrying the old lady out, Tyler's uncle, who had heard the commotion, returned from the field.

Collins came back with him.

Seeing Tyler, he asked, "Brother, where are you taking mom?"

"To the doctor." Tyler had no time to give him a detailed explanation as he lifted the panel and left.

Collins caught up, gazing at Elena who followed the rising sun, and suddenly let out a soft chuckle.

Seemingly addressing Tyler, his gaze, however, was fixed onto Elena.

"Tyler, one needs money to go to the clinic, right? Is your wife willing to give you money?"

His tone was laced with sneers, causing Elena to furrow her brows.

She snorted coldly too, "Even if she is not willing to, I have to pay.

Not only did I pay, but I also arrived first. That's definitely better than you who not only arrived late but are also waiting for someone else to foot the bill!"

"You!" Collins blushed in anger and retorted, "How do you know I won't pay?"

He glared at Elena, too annoyed to engage her in conversation.

He ran up to take one side of the stretcher from Tyler's hand and walked forward.

However, Tyler, after hearing the conversation, suddenly turned around, his gaze deep as he looked at her.

Elena, of course, knew what Tyler was implying with that look. The elderly woman who had just been lying on the ground was frail, appearing older than most elderly women, her hands weathered and worn.

All because she had been abused by the original owner of her body.

But the past has happened, Elena had no power to change it.

What she could do now was to treat this old woman better in the future, to make up for the mistakes the original owner had made.

After all, now that she had taken over, she was Elena herself.

Not only did she need to change the perception of the people around her, but she also had to ride the waves in the upcoming era, earning her place in the world! It wouldn't be a bad thing to let Tyler notice her change now.

Only by letting this man know about her transformation, could they get along harmoniously in the future.

She didn't want to be constantly wrestling with trivial household affairs while striving for her career.

By the time they arrived at the community health center, Sylvia's child had finished the vaccination and was sitting in the ward.

When she saw Tyler and others carrying the stretcher into the examination room, her heart started pounding intensely again.

What would she do if something happened to her mother-in-law?
