Chapter 474: The Most Desolate Island Labor Camp



"It's okay. He drives the official car, so it's convenient for you to go back and forth. It's a rare occasion for you to come back, so rest well at home and get some extra sleep during the day."

Li Suyao would call her every two weeks and knew that she had classes and training until ten o'clock every night. During the day, she was either in the operating room or seeing patients and teaching students. She was extremely busy all day and had little time to rest. Although she was young and could handle it now, she couldn't let her body be exhausted by long-term overwork.

Han Lin and Jiao Minmin came back together. The two sisters rode their bicycles back. As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard a familiar voice. They stopped their bicycles and ran into the house: "Sister-in-law!"

"Xiaolin, Minmin." Yun Huaying stood up to greet them.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here today?" Han Lin asked with a smile.

"I'm going to Haicheng to do some business. After I'm done, I'll come to Jinling and stay at home for a few days."

"Sister-in-law, when did you arrive?" Jiao Minmin changed her shoes and immediately walked towards her.

"I got home around five o'clock."

While they were talking, Li Suyao came out with dumplings and said to them, "Huaying helped me clean up as soon as she came back. She also made dumplings and buns. They were almost done when I came back. We'll have dinner when you two come back."

Han Zhangping brought out another plate of steamed crabs and said, "Hurry up and wash your hands and eat."

"Come, Huaying, sit down."

Li Suyao asked her to sit down and picked up a crab for her. She loved seafood, but she went shopping late this afternoon and only bought a few crabs.

Yun Huaying also picked up some food for her parents-in-law and asked with a faint smile, "Dad, is Brother Zhe in the army?"

"Yes, he doesn't know you're here. He's going to night school tonight."

The military assessment will be held next month. Han Zhe has excellent military skills and a high school education, but he has fallen behind in his studies over the years. He has enrolled in night school and takes tutoring classes with the teacher whenever he is free.

"Are you going there every day?" Yun Huaying wanted to thank him and planned to cook a table of delicious food to treat him.

"No, I go every few days." Han Zhangping thought she must have something to talk to her nephew about, so he continued, "I'll tell him to come to our house for dinner tomorrow night."

Speaking of her cousin, Han Lin asked her, "Sister-in-law, is Sister Jiang Yuan still in the production team?"

"Well, after the New Year, the commune started recruiting teachers for the new school. She was actually qualified in every way and could have gotten a recommendation from the team if she wanted to go. But she gave up at the time. Later, the results of her submissions weren't so good, so she didn't get the job at the newspaper and ended up working in the team's bean product factory."

"But later, when village cadres in the production team were promoted and transferred, she also got an opportunity and was transferred to be a scorekeeper. She occasionally went with the team to deliver goods and keep accounts. The work was relatively easy, which freed up a lot of time for her creation."

In fact, what the two sisters were most concerned about was Jiang Yuan and Zhe Ge. They also asked Zhe Ge about it, but he was very tight-lipped and they didn't get any useful information from him.

Han Lin continued to inquire: "Sister-in-law, is there any progress between Brother Zhe and Sister Jiang Yuan?"

"There should be. The two of them have been communicating quite frequently recently."

Yun Huaying only knew this. She would go back to Yang County at least twice a month, and occasionally stay at home for a night. She would always hear Lin Shan joking about Jiang Yuan. Judging from her expression, there should be progress between the two.

"It's good to see progress."

Li Suyao has always been worried that her nephew is a fool, so she has been trying to teach him a lot during this period.

Han Zhangping had never urged his nephew on personal matters. Marriage cannot be rushed. He also hoped that the two of them would get to know each other better before making a decision. A marriage with mutual recognition and affirmation will always be stronger and happier.

Han Zhangping and his wife both have the habit of taking a walk after dinner. After dinner tonight, Yun Huaying also accompanied them for a walk and chatted with the neighbors in the family area.

"Aunt."

A small voice came from behind. Yun Huaying turned around and saw that it was Lanlan from Captain Wang's family. She was standing next to her grandmother, calling someone with a shy smile.

"Lanlan." Yun Huaying smiled and took out two plum candies from her pocket and gave them to her. "Have you eaten?"

"have eaten."

Lanlan is still a little shy and timid, but she is more generous than before. She wears clean and tidy clothes, has her hair in pigtails, and her face is rounder than during the Chinese New Year.

"Lanlan, take this candy that your auntie gave you." Li Suyao looked at her with a smile.

Old Lady Wang took it for her, put it in her pocket, and instructed her, "Did you say thank you?"

"Thank you, Auntie." Lanlan shyly hid behind her.

"Lanlan, have you learned painting from the teacher?" Yun Huaying asked her with a smile.

Lanlan nodded her head non-stop, like a chick pecking at rice, and answered happily, "I learned to draw. Today I drew a rabbit. The teacher said my drawing was good."

"Lanlan is a child with some talent for drawing. Last time, when he was drawing leaves, he drew maple leaves, sycamore leaves and pine leaves very realistically. Unlike my son Tiaotiao, his drawings were all pitch black, like ghostly graffiti. When he came back after drawing, I asked him what they were, and he said he couldn't remember, but they were all leaves. He also added that his drawings were different from others, because others drew living leaves, but he drew burnt leaves." Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but complain about her grandson.

"Ha ha..."

The Zhao family's grandson is naughty and active, with a smart and clever mind. Everyone actually likes him very much.

Old Lady Wang had brought her granddaughter over to chat, but this was also partly a test. Tian Mei had collaborated with the bad guys and nearly killed the Yun family. The two elders were terrified that Han Zheng's wife would implicate the family and blame them, and that it would affect their son's career and career. Seeing that she was willing to talk to them, and was friendly to Lan Lan, and hadn't turned against them because of Tian Mei's incident, she felt relieved.

Yun Huaying understood the old woman's little thoughts. She was not a person who could not distinguish right from wrong. Tian Mei's affairs had nothing to do with the Wang family. Even if she wanted to take revenge, she would not take it against the Wang family, but only against those who had done bad things.

After taking a walk outside, Yun Huaying and her two sisters went home first. They boiled the water on the kitchen stove, poured it into the bathroom, and washed their hair and took a bath.

After taking a shower, Yun Huaying found that her parents-in-law had not returned yet, so she asked Han Lin and the others, "Where are Xiaolin, Minmin, and Tianmei being held now?"

"Sister-in-law, she was sent to an island for forced labor for twenty years."

Han Lin and the others knew what was going on and immediately told her, "This Tian Mei is really not a good person. At first, she was stubborn and insisted that she was deceived. She thought those people were relatives of the Yun family and lied that they were kind enough to help lead the way."

"Brother Zhe has conducted a thorough investigation, and the statements of those arrested have proven that her stories are all nonsense. She was willing to help them. They promised her a thousand yuan if she could help find Uncle Yun's address. They gave her a two hundred yuan deposit in advance. She's living comfortably with this two hundred yuan."

"Later, during the interrogation, they used some tricks on her, and she finally confessed. Tian Fang wasn't involved and was genuinely unaware of the situation. She later came crying and apologized, begging Uncle Yun and the others to give her sister another chance. Uncle Yun and the others didn't relent, and he personally handled the matter. In the end, Tian Mei was exiled to a remote island for forced labor."
