Sangzhi only cared about him because of her mother's love for her son. Otherwise, who would be willing to take over the spoiled young master?

After teaching her a lesson, he went to check on the female comrade. She seemed to see someone coming, so she buried her head in her hands and cried even harder.

The two children were also at a loss.

"I'm sorry, I apologize to you on behalf of my ignorant brother. So, let's go to the hospital first, and we will pay for all the expenses and compensation.

Are you in severe pain now? Can you walk?

I am also a doctor. If you feel very uncomfortable, I can help you relieve the pain first."

Gu Chaoyi was crying so hard that her whole body was twitching. Perhaps she felt that the other person really cared about her, so she looked up.

Someone recognized her at this glance.

"Isn't this the daughter of Director Gu of the lumber mill?"

The sawmill is located in the most prosperous street in Pingcheng. It is the largest wood processing enterprise in the province and has made great contributions to the country's economic development.

The three streets outside, Timber Street, Timber East Street, and Timber West Street, are all the residential areas for the timber factory staff, and are also the location of Sangzhi's original home.

Anyone who lives around here knows Director Gu.

His life can be said to be legendary. When he first started working, around the late 1950s, he participated in the installation and commissioning of the sawmill's first domestically produced particleboard production line at a young age.

In the mid-1960s, in order to solve the problems of low efficiency and high safety risks faced by lumberyard workers when unloading trains, he presided over the design of a large-span light gantry crane.

In the 1970s, after negotiations, investigations and studies, German production lines were introduced, which improved the production efficiency of the sawmill.

In addition to being far-sighted and vigorously developing production, he also provided volunteer training to factory employees.

Provide basic knowledge and mechanical-related courses to new technicians.

It can be said that the factory’s development to this point is partly due to state support, but more importantly, it is inseparable from his hard work and construction.

But good people don't live long. Director Gu had not yet reached retirement age, but he died of carbon monoxide poisoning while on duty last night.

This also explains why Gu Chaoyi cried breathlessly and almost fainted after being bumped by a child.

"His wife died a long time ago, and his daughter hasn't even gotten married yet. Hey, will Director Gu be buried tomorrow?

If we have nothing to do this afternoon, let's go to the Gu family and see if we can help with the funeral."

"That's true, but I heard that Director Liu's son, Liu Keli, is dating Xiao Gu. Although they're not married, they've met their parents. Shouldn't he take the initiative to get involved in the funeral?"

"It's hard to say. Have you seen Xiao Gu's belly?"

Recently, rumors have been circulating in the factory, saying that Xiao Gu is immoral and pregnant before marriage.

There is no smoke without fire, so someone went to congratulate Ma Yuhuan, Director Liu's lover.

To celebrate the arrival of a new baby in her family.

But her expression was very stiff at that time.

Faced with congratulations, I felt like I was smiling with my face but not my heart.

Of course, some people have heard her complain that her son has never held the hand of Director Gu’s daughter, so how could he have a child.

But due to Director Gu's authority and reputation in the factory, they had to swallow their anger.

I used to doubt the authenticity of this story, but she fell just now and I saw her belly, which was slightly bulging, almost like she was three or four months pregnant.

In other words, the rumor that Director Gu’s daughter is going to marry into the Liu family while pregnant with someone else’s child is true?

Gossip and scandals are always talked about with gusto, no matter what era it is.

Just as the topic was moving towards a more explosive direction, someone interrupted them.

"Director Gu just left and you're already bullying his children? Have you forgotten who arranged for you temporary workers?

Have you forgotten who applied for the relief food during the Great Famine, keeping you alive?"

After the other party said this, the discussion stopped.

The female comrade probably heard the conversation and suddenly stopped crying. She glared stubbornly at the women who had been chattering just now.

Only then did Sangzhi notice the girl's appearance. She had an oval face, big black eyes with slightly upturned outer corners. Although she had single eyelids, she had beautiful almond-shaped eyes.

If she wasn't so thin and had a slightly yellowish face, she would have been really eye-catching with her spirited and pretty appearance.

She pulled her clothes tightly together, pushed Sangzhi away and said she was fine.

Just then, a tall and handsome young man in blue overalls, black trousers and glasses came.

He grabbed the female comrade's arm, his tone three parts concern and seven parts impatience.

"Chaoyi, where have you been? Didn't you say you wanted to buy cloth for your dad? I've been waiting for you for ages. Come on, give me the cloth coupons."

Before the burial, bedding and funeral clothes had to be made and placed in the coffin. Director Gu died suddenly and there was no elder in the family to take care of it, so everything had to be done on the spur of the moment.

Liu Keli was very angry and his expression was ugly.

It was true that he had been pursuing her before, because she was good-looking and could help his career.

Although she has a bad temper, she likes to act like a spoiled brat.

But considering that she is an only child and Director Gu has many connections, he is willing to be humble.

But her father is gone, and she still can't figure out her own identity. Does she really think she's so popular?

Sangzhi took the female comrade's pulse by helping her.

Seeing that the two were about to leave, Sangzhi whispered a few words in their ears.

"Others don't know, but you and I both know this is not pregnancy."

Gu Chaoyi didn't know her, but the expression he had just composed seemed to be about to collapse in an instant.

About two months ago, she started to feel weak and her lower limbs were swollen, and a month ago, her stomach started to grow bigger. When the incident happened, she went to the hospital and was diagnosed with ascites caused by liver cirrhosis.

She is only twenty years old, how could she have cirrhosis of the liver!

After half a month of treatment in the internal medicine department, including treatment with furosemide, Gantaile and the Chinese medicine Shipiyin, the ascites did not decrease.

Instead, symptoms such as thirst, drowsiness, chest fullness, shortness of breath, and abdominal distension may occur.

Later, I went to the provincial hospital for a check-up and ruled out cirrhosis of the liver.

Although the specific condition is still unknown, rumors about her pregnancy have been intensifying in the family compound recently.

Even her father asked her last night if she was really pregnant with Liu Keli's child, but she didn't dare to say.

She looked down on this guy at all. He had never even let anyone touch his hands, so how could he be pregnant!

It was his father's distrust and his own inner pain that caused the two of them to have the biggest quarrel in history last night.

She was the one who kicked her father out, so he had to go to the office on duty last night and died of poisoning from burning honeycomb coal!

She was the one who killed her father.

But the stone that had been weighing on her heart for so long was actually removed by her, and she was the first one to say that she was not pregnant despite being criticized by thousands of people.

Unfortunately, it’s too late, too late.
