Her misogynistic mother accepted a high-priced bride price and married her to a man with disabled legs. She was ridiculed for half her life. Facing the婆婆's (mother-in-law's) constant ni...
Yuan Yueqin seemed to be aware of the gazes coming from the opposite side. She looked up suddenly and saw Lin Zhenfang.
"Mr. Lin." She smiled at her and explained, "It's so difficult. I can't even understand it."
Lin Zhenfang replied politely: "Don't worry, take your time."
Yuan Yueqin actually admired Jiang Xun very much. He did not leave his seat this morning.
She wanted to do something for Jiang Xun. Seeing that everyone was pouring hot water to drink, she also picked up Jiang Xun's cup to help him get hot water.
By the time she went over with the cup, the water in the kettle had been poured out.
Yuan Yueqin put down the cup and went to get some water with the thermos.
When she came back, Master Qin came to pour water. She hurriedly offered her courtesy: "Master Qin, let me help you pour water."
"No, no. I can do it myself!"
...
...
When she turned around, she saw Zhang Xuan coming over with a cup, and hurriedly said, "Let me pour you some water."
"I can do it myself, thank you."
Seeing that no one needed her help, Yuan Yueqin was happy to have some free time. After all, she had already done the superficial work, and her real purpose was to pour water for Jiang Xun.
After everyone else had poured their water, Yuan Yueqin picked up Jiang Xun's cup and poured him a glass of water, then placed it next to Jiang Xun's hand.
Jiang Xun was so focused on his work that he had long forgotten what was happening around him.
Yuan Yueqin was afraid that he would find it difficult to hold the cup, so she pushed it inward.
The moment Jiang Xun raised his hand to take the blueprint, his elbow accidentally swept the cup away.
The water in the cup was boiling water, and it spilled all over Yuan Yueqin.
"Ah——" Yuan Yueqin screamed and jumped up from her seat immediately, "It's so hot, it's so hot..."
Jiang Xun then realized that he had scalded someone.
"This is boiling water. It will burn you. Hurry up and take off your pants."
"That won't work. If I take off my pants now, won't I tear off a layer of skin?"
"We can't keep going like this..."
The department was suddenly in chaos. The newcomer was scalded by boiling water as soon as he arrived. He was so unlucky.
Everyone was talking at the same time.
"Go take a shower." Jiang Xun said, "Let's go, hurry up!"
Yuan Yueqin didn't know what was going on in her mind. She still wanted to take control at this time.
"It hurts. I can't walk because of the pain." Yuan Yueqin looked at Jiang Xun with tears in her eyes.
Jiang Xun frowned: "What should I do? I can't carry you there either. My legs and feet can't bear weight for the time being. If you hesitate any longer, your legs will be burned. By then, you will be left with scars and you won't even be able to wear a skirt."
Yuan Yueqin then panicked and rushed out with gritted teeth.
She rushed directly to the ladies' room, raised her legs and placed them on the water pipe.
The faucet was left running for half an hour, and only after the pain gradually subsided did I limp back.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Jiang Xun holding a pair of scissors in his hand.
"What are you...what are you going to do?"
"Cut your trouser legs." Jiang Xun said coldly.
Yuan Yueqin burst into tears when she heard this: "I've already seen it, the pants tore off the skin and it hurts. Jiang Xun, please take me to the hospital."
"I don't have time." Jiang Xun said.
Yuan Yueqin's eyes were filled with tears. "I poured you some water out of kindness, but you spilled the water and scalded me. I was already in so much pain, how could you just sit there and watch?"
"Yes, Jiang Xun, this is your fault."
"Go and show them around."
Several veteran engineers in the department spoke up.
Jiang Xun was unmoved: "My work is at a critical juncture. This drawing will be sent for review this afternoon. I must complete it."
"It doesn't matter if the drawings are late. The girl's legs are burned. If they get infected in such hot weather, it will be troublesome."
"Yes, take her there. The hospital in our factory is not far from here."
Jiang Xun looked at Yuan Yueqin and felt that this scene seemed familiar.
She seemed to have used this trick four years ago.
She took advantage of the accident and pretended to be pitiful in front of everyone to win their sympathy and force him to bow his head to satisfy her wishes.
"I don't want to drink the water, and I didn't ask you to pour it for me." Jiang Xun didn't want to be coerced, so he spoke directly.
Such words will only make people feel that he is cold and hard, nothing more.
"I mean well, too. Am I wrong to be kind?" Yuan Yueqin cried even more heartbrokenly, "Don't you want me to learn from you?"
Jiang Xun frowned: "Can you understand?"
Yuan Yueqin: "... You... I don't understand. Am I not learning? Am I unworthy of learning? Okay, even if my kindness is treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, that's ok, right?"
"It's not that you don't deserve to study, but you shouldn't come to this department." Jiang Xun refused to spare him a word, "It's not far from here to the hospital. Instead of wasting time talking to me, why don't you go check your legs?"
"I'm in so much pain, I can't walk... What do you want me to do?" Yuan Yueqin cried even harder, "It's said that neighbors help each other, Jiang Xun, I haven't offended you, right?"
"Okay, okay, stop crying. I'll take you there." Master Qin couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to take Yuan Yueqin there.
He was trying to rescue his apprentice.
After all, his apprentice is a married man, and Yuan Yueqin has just divorced, so it is obvious that his apprentice has to avoid suspicion.
"I'd better let me accompany you." Lin Zhenfang took the initiative to stand up. "Both Master Qin and Jiang Xun are men. It's a bit inconvenient for them to accompany you. I'm a woman, so it's more convenient for me to accompany you."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin." In this situation, Yuan Yueqin could only agree.
After going to the hospital, the doctor examined Yuan Yueqin's burns and felt that her condition was a little serious.
"This boiling water is very scalding. The skin has been torn off. You need to disinfect it. It's easy to get infected in this hot weather. Let me treat the wound for you. You can rest at home for a few days. Wait until the wound is dry and scabbed, and then you can go back to work."
Yuan Yueqin had never expected that she would end up like this.
I have to ask for leave again on my first day at work.
Really... so unlucky!
Ye Li felt his eyelids twitching in the workshop, and he always felt that something was going to happen today.
As soon as she got off work, she took the first bus to the machinery factory.
As expected, Yuan Yueqin's legs were burned and she couldn't walk. The bus was crowded, so she could only choose to leave a little later or wait for someone to take her on a bicycle.
No matter what, Jiang Xun was the one who burned her, and at this moment, Jiang Xun had to take her back no matter what.
This way, the two of them have some time alone.
Yuan Yueqin was happy.
When Jiang Xun was worrying, Ye Li appeared at the door of the design department office, completely shattering Yuan Yueqin's dream.
