The police officer nodded solemnly.
He warned Xiao Qi again, "This woman has said she wants to break up with you. You're not family, and you have no right to forcibly take her away!"
"If you lay a hand on me again, I'll take you away on charges of sexual assault!"
Xiao Qi was extremely unwilling, staring at Xiao Tong, "Xiao Tong, do you know how much I love you? Do you really want to break up with me?"
Xiao Tong said, "I definitely want to break up with you!"
The police allowed Xiao Tong to leave and warned Xiao Qi not to bother Xiao Tong anymore.
Xiao Tong was reluctant to stay there any longer. Before leaving, she hesitated for a moment and said to the police, "Officers, this family of men is really no good. One of them beats his wife, and the other just watches his mother being beaten. You must do something about this!"
The police officer smiled bitterly to himself. They had encountered this kind of situation before. The woman would come to the police station crying and complaining about how difficult things were for her, but once they tried to persuade her to leave, she would turn around and accuse them of meddling.
In short, this matter is not particularly easy to handle.
After Xiao Tong finished speaking, she left quickly, leaving this mess to the police, the neighborhood committee, and the Women's Federation.
The Women's Federation was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to speak with Xiao Qi's mother.
The women's federation comrades took Xiao Qi's mother's hand and led her to see a doctor.
Xiao Qi's mother looked very old, probably in her fifties or sixties, but given Xiao Qi's age, she was at most in her forties.
"Besides the superficial wound on your arm, where else are you injured?" the doctor asked.
Xiao Qi's mother did not answer, keeping her head down, just as Xiao Tong remembered her—dull and taciturn.
The women's federation staff held her hand and said, "Auntie, don't be afraid. We're here to support you. If you're injured, just tell the doctor."
Her movements were so fast that her elbow accidentally bumped into Xiao Qi's mother's side waist.
The sharp pain caused Xiao Qi's mother to gasp softly.
The doctor immediately noticed something was wrong and said, "Excuse me."
She lifted up Xiao Qi's mother's clothes.
Xiao Qi's mother didn't even realize what was happening. When she raised her hand to stop them, the women's federation staff, doctors, and nurses all saw the scars on her body.
The women's federation comrades were furious, shouting, "Who was that beast who did all this?!"
Xiao Qi's mother's lips moved, but she couldn't say a word.
Her arm appeared to be a minor superficial injury, but her body, abdomen, lower back, and chest were covered with gruesome wounds of all sizes, crawling like centipedes on Xiao Qi's mother's body.
"You've been beaten like this, how can you still live with him!" The comrade from the Women's Federation was genuinely angry, raising her voice several notches.
Xiao Qi's mother's eyes were filled with despair. "We can't make ends meet, what else can we do?"
Upon hearing this, the comrades from the Women's Federation sighed deeply.
Old Qi waited outside for a long time, but his wife didn't come out.
Old Qi's face darkened when he suddenly heard the Women's Federation member say those words loudly.
He started banging on the door, yelling, "Are you done yet?! I'm starving, I need to go home!"
"I know you can hear me! Hurry up! I'm going home with my wife!"
When Xiao Qi's mother heard his voice, she instinctively flinched.
It was as if she was hearing not her husband's voice, but the sounds of the devil.
The women's federation staff held Xiao Qi's mother's hand tightly, saying, "If you want a divorce, come to us, or go to the police station. We will definitely help you! We'll make you leave him!"
Xiao Qi's mother was stunned. Before she could say anything, the door was pushed open by Lao Qi.
Old Qi's face was quite gloomy, and he pulled Xiao Qi's mother away.
"Hey! Your spouse's injury hasn't been treated yet! And the medicine hasn't been picked up!"
"She's not seriously injured! Why bother treating her?" Old Qi tried to pull her away forcefully, but the others couldn't do anything to him.
He could only watch helplessly as Lao Qi dragged his wife away.
The women's federation staff didn't know what to do either.
They could only intervene if Xiao Qi's mother told them that she wanted a divorce and didn't want things to continue like this.
After watching the whole show, Sister-in-law Yu went back and told Zhou Mingli about it. She added at the end, "Xiao Tong escaped from that family, but that family's mother... sigh, she's so pitiful."
"I secretly followed him to the hospital and saw that that damned guy wouldn't even give me money for my wife's treatment, and he kept saying that my wife's injuries weren't serious!"
"The doctors all said she had many injuries, but she didn't see the doctor she should have, and she didn't get the medicine she should have. It's really... pitiful."
Zhou Mingli nodded and said, "I've got it."
He smiled and handed Sister-in-law Yu a boxed lunch, saying, "I bought this beforehand. It's perfect that you're back, Sister-in-law. Eat up quickly."
Sister-in-law Yu didn't stand on ceremony and took it, saying, "Second brother, you go ahead and do what you need to do later, I'll keep an eye on things!"
"We've sold almost all the goods we brought out today, let's hurry up and finish."
Sister-in-law Yu thought for a moment and said, "That works too."
Zhou Mingli helped sell all the goods that Sister-in-law Yu had brought out.
He now settles accounts with Xu San, Sister-in-law Yu, and other people who help sell goods once a month, and the more they sell, the more they earn.
The two of them always split the most money.
Sister-in-law Yu asked Dazhu to calculate that once Zhou Mingli's truckload of goods was sold, their family would have an income of over ten thousand yuan.
This doesn't even include the money that Brother Yu earned from driving with him and the money that Da Zhu made from selling other things!
Sister-in-law Yu's mouth was stretched wide with a smile.
Her family will be able to buy a house soon!
Sister-in-law Yu even went to see Jiang Ci to tell her about her family's savings.
Jiang Ci had anticipated this, and this time she didn't mention stopping Sister-in-law Yu from buying a house again.
Now, as long as you can make money, it will be a virtuous cycle, and the rich will become even richer.
