It was already ten o'clock in the morning when Song Yun and Jiang Bing arrived at the staff quarters of the county cotton mill.
Jiang Bing introduced himself to Song Yun, "My aunt works at the cotton mill. My cousin used to live in the single dormitory of the Public Security Bureau. Now that he's in this condition, he can't stay in the hospital all the time, so my aunt brought Zhengping home to take care of him."
When talking about this, Jiang Bing's brows were furrowed, his face looked unhappy, and his tone was a little stiff. Song Yun guessed that there might be some other inside story.
Come to think of it, Jiang Bing's aunt should have given birth to more than one child. If he also has a brother and sister-in-law living in the cotton mill's staff quarters, and suddenly there is a new child in the family, it would be okay for his own brothers, but it would be hard to say for his sister-in-law and sister-in-law.
There is no filial son by the bedside of a patient for a long time, let alone a brother-in-law.
"Is Jiang Bing here?" A neighbor who knew Jiang Bing came out of the tube building and greeted Jiang Bing with a smile.
Jiang Bing nodded, "Aunt Wu, is my aunt home?"
Aunt Wu smiled and said, "She's here. I just saw her going out to get some water." Her eyes lit up as she landed on Song Yun. "Oh, this girl is so pretty. Is she your girlfriend?"
Jiang Bing waved his hands quickly, "No, no, this is Doctor Song. I asked him to treat Zhengping."
Aunt Wu showed suspicion on her face, thinking that Jiang Xianan might have been deceived. How could there be such a young doctor, who was specially invited?
However, it was not easy to say anything in front of others, so she smiled and made way for the tube-shaped building, watching Jiang Xian'an take the beautiful female comrade upstairs.
Jin Zhengping's family lives in the innermost room on the second floor. The long and narrow corridor is piled with coal stoves, pots and pans from each household. The remaining aisle for walking is very narrow, but the advantage is that it is clean and not messy.
The two men walked to the door of Jin Zhengping's house, and before they knocked, they heard a quarrel coming from inside.
"I can't live like this anymore, Jin Liangping. I'm telling you, if you don't get your brother away, I'll leave and we'll get divorced."
"Can you please be reasonable? Zhengping is already like this, where do you want me to take him?"
"I don't care. This house only has two rooms. We're already crowded, and now there's another cripple. He's always pooping and pissing. How can we live like this?"
At this time, an older woman spoke up, "This house is mine. If anyone needs to move out, it's you two. Just move out today and stop arguing here all day long."
"Mom..." the woman's voice was very sharp. "Are you talking like a human being? Where else can we live if not here? I am the eldest daughter-in-law of your Jin family, and you actually want to kick us out? Fine! Then don't count on us to support you in your old age. You can count on your little son who is paralyzed in bed."
"Count on you? Look at your face in the mirror. How can I count on someone like you? Get out of here, all of you."
"Jin Liangping, please speak, are you mute?"
"You're the one who wanted to do this. What do you want me to say? My brother won't leave this family. If you want a divorce, go ahead. I have nothing to say to you."
After hearing Jin Liangping's words, Jiang Bing's ugly expression eased a little.
Just as he was hesitating whether to knock on the door, he heard the woman yelling, "Okay, okay! I see that you, Jin Liangping, have long wanted to stop living with me. Fine, then let's get a divorce. Whoever doesn't get a divorce is a grandson. Let's get a divorce now. I don't want a useless man like you who can't have children."
Jin Liangping seemed to be angry too, "Okay, let's divorce now."
After a while, the door opened and a woman with a furious look rushed out, followed by an equally angry man. He should be Jin Zhengping's elder brother Jin Liangping.
The woman was stunned when she saw Jiang Bing, and her face looked a little uneasy, but she didn't say anything and just left.
Jin Liangping didn't expect Jiang Bing to be at the door, and was a little embarrassed. "You're here, come in and sit down, I have something to take care of first." After saying that, he left.
