Yang Qiaoqiao knew that Tong Xuejiao was worried about her safety, so she smiled and said, "Sister Xuejiao, you are pregnant yourself!"

Don't even think about protecting me. Just stay home and rest during your pregnancy. Don't worry, I won't go back to the ward alone. I'll have my brother and Yangyang come with me."

When Tong Xuejiao heard Yang Qiaoqiao's words, she knew that Yang Qiaoqiao had already considered the safety issue, so she did not insist.

"Okay then, but you absolutely must be careful!"

"Don't worry, I value my own life and my child's life very much!"

Yang Qiaoqiao said with a smile.

Now that her two little ones in her belly can interact with her, she cherishes the beauty of this world even more. No matter what, she will protect herself and her children's safety.

During this time, in order to have more time to visit Yang Qiaoqiao, Lin Xiaohui has directly handed over the management of the duck products store in Yun County to Song Lixiang and two apprentices.

She herself brought several apprentices to the provincial capital to help out at the train station shop.

The shops at the train station are now well-staffed, and Lin Xiaohui and Yang Jianguo were delighted to hear that Yang Qiaoqiao was going back to Yun County.

Before Yang Qiaoqiao could even speak, the two immediately decided that Yang Jianguo would accompany her back.

Yang Qiaoqiao herself had the same idea, so naturally she didn't refuse.

Upon arriving in Yun County, Yang Qiaoqiao called the garment factory again and asked Zhou Yang to accompany her to her family compound.

Before returning to her family home, she first bought memorial supplies and gifts such as malted milk powder, royal jelly, and milk powder to visit the patient.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, she was still taken aback when she actually stood in front of the gate of the cement factory's residential compound.

Looking at the white flowers and elegiac couplets on the gate of the family compound, she still felt an indescribable sorrow.

Most of the cement factory workers were in their prime; they had decades more to live and could have seen how wonderful the world would become in the future.

But now...

Upon entering the residential compound, several mourning halls had been set up, and funeral music filled the air.

It made the listener's heart sink.

Yang Qiaoqiao went to each family to pay her respects.

So much time has passed since the accident, and due to issues with the investigation and compensation, it has been delayed until now before we can prepare to bury the deceased.

However, the deceased's family has already passed the most painful time, especially after receiving compensation that was much higher than usual, and the family has accepted the reality.

Therefore, when Yang Qiaoqiao went to pay her respects, the family members' attitudes were relatively good.

On the contrary, when visiting the injured person's home to offer condolences, although the family members had calmed down, the injured person himself still could not accept the reality of his disability.

Several of the injured people threw Yang Qiaoqiao's gifts out of their hands.

The family members came out to apologize to Yang Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, please don't mind. My husband just can't bear the thought of his leg being gone. He wasn't smashing things at you; he's been smashing things whenever anyone visits him lately..."

As she spoke, the sister-in-law couldn't help but wipe away her tears.

Yang Qiaoqiao forced a smile. "Sister-in-law, I understand. Brother Zhou works in our factory, and this accident happened to him. It's our responsibility. I'm sorry."

As she spoke, she bowed to the other person.

Aunt Zhou quickly wiped away her tears and helped her up. "Qiaoqiao, don't say that. The last person who wanted this to happen is you and Beixiao."

Although Lao Zhou is now disabled and unable to work, Bei Xiao said that he will be paid a monthly salary based on the average wage of cement factory workers, which will ensure the livelihood of our family.

We don't blame you. Blame those two bastards, Dai Hu and Chen Liang..."

When Sister Zhou mentioned Dai Hu and Chen Liang, she gritted her teeth in hatred, and tears streamed down her face again. "You know, we all live in the same compound, how could those two bastards be so heartless? Aren't they afraid of being struck by lightning and having no descendants... Waaah..."

Sister-in-law Zhou hadn't cried before, but now, while cursing Dai Hu and Chen Liang, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Yang Qiaoqiao felt a tightness in her chest as she listened.

The pillar of the family has collapsed. Even though Huo Beixiao promised to pay their family a salary for life, who wouldn't be heartbroken?

Despite her own grief, Yang Qiaoqiao comforted Aunt Zhou for a while before leaving.

As I was going downstairs, I ran into Yan Suhua.

Yan Suhua's husband was a technician at the factory and did not work in the brothel, so he was not affected by the accident.

However, given the current atmosphere in the compound, it's difficult for anyone in the compound to feel happy.

"Qiaoqiao, you're back." Yan Suhua forced a smile when she saw Yang Qiaoqiao.

Yang Qiaoqiao nodded and greeted Yan Suhua, "Aunt Yan."

After saying goodbye, she prepared to leave.

She had only taken two steps when Yan Suhua called out to her, "Qiaoqiao, be careful when you go out later. I saw a figure outside when I came back just now, it looks a bit like You Dongyun."

Yang Qiaoqiao asked with some confusion, "Wasn't You Dongyun arrested?"

Yan Suhua was also very angry when she talked about this. "What did he get arrested for? That heartless Dai Hu was actually quite kind to his wife. After he was arrested, he took all the blame and said that You Dongyun knew nothing about it."

“But look at them, ever since before the Lunar New Year, You Dongyun and Wu Zhaodi have been showing off their clothes, new hairstyles, and new jewelry all day long in the courtyard. Do you think they don’t know what their men do to earn so much money?”

Yang Qiaoqiao wasn't particularly surprised that Dai Hu would protect You Dongyun after the incident.
