When Hua Xiangyun returned to the courtyard, she saw Zhou Jinfeng and his wife walking out angrily, apparently having received the news.

"Why are you standing here like an idiot?" Xun Liangfen had just returned from outside and saw that Hua Xiangyun had arrived at the door but hadn't gone in. She immediately questioned her.

Hua Xiangyun: "No, I just saw Zhou Xiaolan's parents run out looking very angry. I don't know if something happened."

"It seems Zhou Xiaojun got into another fight. He probably came back to pay for medical expenses, right?" Xun Liangfen thought of her three children. Although they weren't close to her, at least they wouldn't cause trouble. Otherwise, she would lose face if she went out.

“Then their family has really had a lot of misfortunes,” Hua Xiangyun said as she stepped into the yard and put down her book. “Zhou Xiaolan seems to be in the hospital too, but I don’t know if we’ll run into her.”

"Huh?" Xun Liangfen was a little surprised. "What a coincidence?"

Hua Xiangyun: "...I was wondering the same thing, how could it be such a coincidence?"

"Stay away from the Zhou family in the future," Xun Liangfen said. She still remembered that Hua Xiangyun used to play very well with the little girl from the Zhou family. Although the two had fallen out, children often quarrel and may get back together in the future.

She gets annoyed when there are too many people doing this.

Hua Xiangyun looked at Xun Liangfen and suddenly laughed, "Mom, you don't know, do you? Zhou Xiaolan has blocked my second brother a few times before..."

Xun Liangfen didn't want to be a loving mother. She had been putting a lot of effort into them these past few days, so this was a good opportunity for her to show off, instead of always keeping an eye on her.

Hua Xiangyun felt no remorse towards Hua Zhian. Even though she knew there was a feud between the two families, he was still fooled by Zhou Xiaolan's sweet words. Even if it was due to the plot, he was not innocent.

"Are you telling the truth?" Xun Liangfen was still somewhat doubtful. That child shouldn't be that stupid, knowing that no one in the family liked Zhou Xiaolan.

"Didn't you see that my dad and grandpa both took him to work today? When you weren't back, it was always my grandpa who picked him up and dropped him off."

It's all to prevent my second brother from acting impulsively and bringing people to our house.

"We all know what kind of people the Zhou family is. If we were to marry into such a family, would we ever have any peace?"

Anyway, she's a troublesome sister-in-law. If the plot is going to develop this way, then it's perfectly normal for her to do some bad things and say some bad things.

As long as Zhou Xiaolan doesn't let the Hua family go and wants to enter their home, they are destined to be adversaries, so why should she be polite?

Xun Liangfen felt uncomfortable upon hearing this. The house was already in enough chaos, and with such a daughter-in-law entering the family, how could she possibly have a good life?

Hua Xiangyun observed the change in her expression and added, "The Zhou family favors sons over daughters and dotes on Zhou Xiaojun. If Second Brother really marries Zhou Xiaolan, won't he be carrying around another brother-in-law..."

Xun Liangfen felt that her daughter's words were a veiled reference to her. Right now, she didn't have the heart to dwell on these things, but she really had to consider this possibility.

She was helping her family, but she was also conflicted about whether it was right or wrong. However, when she heard that her future daughter-in-law might do such a thing, she immediately objected.

Why should the son she raised go and help her in-laws? The Zhou family is so poor, and they have a lot of rural burdens to support. If Zhi'an is really lured over, he'll have to work like a slave for the Zhou family.

She believes that she has been helping her family over the years with her own salary and benefits, and it has little to do with the Hua family.

But Xiaolan didn't have a job that week, so who would have to shoulder all the burdens?

Xun Liangfen immediately shook her head in her heart. No, she couldn't agree to let such a woman into the house.

It seems that Dad and Mom really did the right thing this time. I'll talk to them about it later, and if it doesn't work out, she can pick me up and drop me off.

If Zhou Xiaolan dares to try to get close to Hua Zhian again, she won't give her any face and will tear off her fox-fur coat on the spot.

"It's all because you can't judge people properly," Xun Liangfen said, and Hua Xiangyun became the target of her anger when she thought of someone like Hua Xiangyun plotting against Hua Zhian.

Hua Xiangyun, "..."

...

Hospital

Zhou Xiaolan was surprised to see Bai Ailian in the ward. Seeing her running around anxiously outside the ward, she was touched. She must have heard about her injury and rushed over.

But why does she always run around outside the ward without ever glancing inside? She's right here.

"Mom," Zhou Xiaolan called out loudly as Bai Ailian passed by the door for the third time, "I'm here."

Bai Ailian, however, seemed not to hear her and ran past her once again.

"Doctor, I've paid all the fees. Can I start the medication now?"

My son is in excruciating pain, we need to get him to see a doctor right away.

The doctor took the form from her hand and said, "A nurse will take care of it in a moment."

"No, my son is injured. Shouldn't you doctors treat him? Why did you leave it to the nurses?"

The doctor rolled his eyes at her. "We are doctors, that's true, but your son only has some superficial injuries. We can just apply some medicine later."

This isn't a serious illness, why do we doctors have to do it ourselves?

Okay, just give this form to the nurses, they'll handle it.

After the doctor finished speaking, he shoved the form into her hand and didn't care anymore.

I've never seen a patient like this before. It's just a minor injury, but she acts like someone in her family is dying, running around the hospital like this. If all patients were like her, then the hospital staff wouldn't need to go to work.

Today was really unlucky; I ran into such outrageous people while on duty.

The female student who came in several times before was just treated here, but after she left, she was sent back. What kind of situation is this?

Seeing that the doctor ignored her, Bai Ailian muttered a few curses under her breath before taking the form and turning to find the nurse.

The nurse saw all of this, took the form without saying a word, and turned to get to work.

"Nurse, you have to hurry, my son is in so much pain. And when you change his dressing, please be gentle, my son has always been afraid of pain."

"I mean, you guys are really something. For a minor injury like his, you could have just taken him to the clinic for simple treatment. Why did you have to send him to the hospital?"

The procedures at the hospital are definitely more complicated. From now on, I'll just go to the clinic, and they'll give me the medicine right away.

The nurse also expressed her dissatisfaction, saying that even though there was a health clinic in the neighborhood, these people just liked to cause trouble.

"How can you say that?" Bai Ailian said unhappily. "My son is injured, so of course I have to check him over to see if he's been hurt anywhere. Is this kind of health clinic the same as a hospital?"

"How is it different? The doctors there were transferred from here," they said. If doctors and nurses hadn't been transferred from the hospital, they wouldn't be so busy.

Why do people still squeeze into the hospital when there's a clinic? No wonder Li Ke'er said the other day that it's so easy for them at the clinic, with hardly any patients a day. If she had known that, she should have tried to get in, and maybe she wouldn't be working so hard.
