Chapter 426 Thunderclap
Seeing Jiang Zhizhi staring at her with a serious expression, Shen Luojia felt uneasy: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Jiang Zhizhi quickly looked away, suppressing the turmoil in her heart: "When did you come to Beijing?"
Shen Luojia frowned and thought seriously for a while: "It's been a long time, I came during the New Year."
Jiang Zhizhi asked in surprise, "You've been here so long? Where have you been staying?"
Shen Luojia couldn't quite remember: "I don't remember. I'm not familiar with Beijing, so I don't know where I stayed. It was my dad who arranged it. Later, he brought me back. My grandma has been in the hospital."
Jiang Zhizhi frowned: "Which hospital is your grandmother in?"
Shen Luojia knew this: "It's the main hospital, near Wukesong."
Jiang Zhizhi was surprised: "The main hospital? I'm at the main hospital too. I've never run into you before. What illness does your grandmother have?"
Think about it, the hospital is so big, it's normal not to run into each other.
Shen Luojia shook her head: "I don't know. Every time, the doctor just asks my dad to come over and talk to me, because my dad tells the doctor that I'm not very bright and a little slow, so the doctor doesn't ask me for help."
He curled the corners of his mouth and smiled sarcastically, "I'm just slow to react and sometimes I can't remember things, but I'm really not stupid."
Jiang Zhizhi nodded: "Yes, I found out from chatting with you that you are not only not stupid, but also a very smart girl. You just live in the countryside and don't meet many people."
Shen Luojia glanced at Jiang Zhizhi and somewhat disagreed with her statement. She had met quite a few people in the countryside, and they were all bad people.
Jiang Zhizhi comforted her again: "Don't think too much. Let me see if I can find your grandma."
Relieved, Shen Luojia stood up and watched as Jiang Zhizhi also stood up, brushing the dirt off her clothes. Suddenly, she blurted out, "If they dare to lie to me, I'll kill them all!"
Jiang Zhizhi stopped in her tracks in fright and looked up at Shen Luojia, whose beautiful face was filled with hostility.
Given her personality, she'll probably really do what she says!
He quickly tried to persuade her, saying, "Don't be impulsive. If anything happens, you can come to me, and we'll figure something out together."
Shen Luojia didn't say a word, but her expression was resolute, as if she meant what she said.
After parting ways with Shen Luojia in the woods, Jiang Zhizhi's mind was in turmoil on the way back.
How come Shen Luojia was poisoned by the same poison as Song Wanying? Where exactly did things go wrong?
And then there's Shen Luojia. Just now, after taking her pulse, I discovered that she did indeed suffer brain nerve damage when she was a child due to a fever. Given the extent of the damage, if it were someone else, they might be mentally disabled.
It's already a miracle that Shen Luojia can do this.
Because she is slow to react in certain aspects, she is not easily influenced by those around her.
I used to think she was carefree and undisciplined because she didn't care at all. She could completely forget herself and remain undisturbed by people and things that she didn't care about.
She can be simply happy and joyful, or she can go to extremes.
For example, when she says she's going to kill Shen Qingping's entire family, others might just be making empty threats, but she would actually do it.
Just like when she encountered that robber, she hated evil as much as she wanted to kill, so she was ruthless.
Jiang Zhizhi couldn't figure it out, but she felt sorry for Shen Luojia's situation.
When she got home, her family was waiting for her to have dinner. Zhou Chengzhi had just entered the house and was holding little Zhou Jidou.
Upon seeing Jiang Zhizhi enter, Fang Hua called out to wash her hands and eat, then asked Jiang Zhizhi, "What did Shen Luojia want to talk to you about?"
Jiang Zhizhi washed her hands and came out, briefly explaining the situation: "I suspect that Grandma may not be around anymore. They think Shen Luojia isn't smart enough, so they lied to her to make her obediently get married."
Fang Hua frowned: "Oh dear, what kind of family is this? They're still my daughter's family. Even if she's an idiot, I can't push her into a fire pit."
Zhou Chengzhi knew the Chu family well: "The Chu family? I know them. They do have a mentally challenged son who is thirty-five or thirty-six years old this year. How mentally challenged is he? In winter, he runs outside without clothes and has an attack on the street at any time. Whenever he has an attack, he starts taking off his clothes and running around naked."
"To protect their reputation, they haven't let their mentally challenged son out all these years, and they haven't heard any news about him. I never expected that they would actually be thinking of finding him a wife."
Fang Hua was even more dissatisfied: "Isn't this ruining a perfectly good girl's life? The Chu family is also being dishonest. With a son like this, they could just hire a nanny to take care of him until he's old, why bother finding him a wife?"
Zhou Chengyu scoffed from the side, "You know what, with a son like that, ordinary girls wouldn't even look at him."
Zhou Chengzhi nodded: "That's really true. Otherwise, it would be easy for his family to trick a girl from the countryside."
Fang Hua cursed angrily, "They're a family of animals! What kind of people are they! So immoral, aren't they afraid of retribution?"
Jiang Zhizhi quickly comforted the angry Fang Hua: "Mom, it's not worth it, it's not worth it, it's all unnecessary, don't be too angry."
Fang Hua was still angry: "How can I not be angry? Pushing a perfectly good child into a fire pit, are you even human?"
"And then there's the guy surnamed Chu, he's utterly immoral. His son is like this, and he's still looking for a wife? What a despicable scoundrel."
Zhou Chengyu chimed in, "That's really shameless. It's just a pity for that girl, she's the same age as Zhizhi."
Seeing that the two were getting angrier, Zhou Chengzhi carefully reminded them, "Keep your voices down, don't scare Xiao Zhouji and Shangshang. No matter what, this is someone else's business, and even if you're furious, you can't interfere."
Fang Hua pondered for a moment: "Does the Women's Federation care? I'll go to the Women's Federation and report them."
Zhou Chengzhi sighed, "Who dares to interfere? Besides, that girl from the Shen family isn't really stupid; she agreed to it herself. Alright, you can discuss this at home; we can't control it."
Fang Hua sighed, still feeling sorry for Shen Luojia.
At night, Shangshang started fussing again, wanting to sleep with her parents. When she did, Xiao Zhouji also wanted to sleep with her parents.
However, Xiao Zhou had a better idea. He hugged Jiang Zhizhi's mother, and after she called out to him, she quickly carried him upstairs, holding his little pillow and dragging his sister's little blanket.
Unable to carry all these things downstairs, he stood at the bottom of the stairs, threw down the blankets and pillows first, then turned around and carefully climbed down backwards.
Fang Hua and Zhou Chengyu were laughing so hard they were bent over: "Oh my, our little Zhou even knows to take his sister's blanket down!"
Jiang Zhizhi smiled and went over to help Xiao Zhouji pick up his pillow and blanket, then reached out and picked him up: "Tonight, Shangshang and Xiao Zhouji will sleep with their parents."
The two little ones were delighted, and Xiao Zhouji immediately waved to Fang Hua and Zhou Chengyu: "Grandma, An'an, goodbye."
This made everyone laugh out loud.
As we were chatting, a thunderclap suddenly rang out, booming as if it were about to explode from above.
Fang Hua stared out the window in shock: "What's going on? Why is it thundering all of a sudden?"
