Chapter 104 Agree
Zhang Yaping opened her mouth but said nothing.
Fortunately, Li Weidong had already brought in the medicine. Before Aunt Cuifen finished cooking the noodles, Xing Dongyang said goodbye and left. Zhang Yaping and Li Weidong also went out together.
Su Tong was so exhausted by this that he couldn't eat anything after drinking a few sips of noodle soup. He first persuaded Aunt Cuifen to go back home and asked Shitou to go back. However, Shitou refused to leave, so Su Tong sent him to make medicine for her.
I took the detoxifying medicine last night and felt a little better, but the fever has not gone away. I just forced myself to deal with these things, but now I feel dizzy and it seems that the fever is getting worse.
Except for being woken up once to take medicine, Su Tong slept until it was almost dark.
When she opened her eyes, Wu Qiuyu was sitting on the edge of the kang, looking at her with concern.
Seeing her wake up, Wu Qiuyu rushed over and said, "Sister, you're awake! Do you feel better?"
Su Tong had enough sleep and felt that his strength had been restored a lot. He nodded and sat up.
Ma Daming and Shitou were originally in the main room, and came in when they heard the noise.
"Tongya! You're awake!"
"Sister Tongya, your eldest brother, oh no! Wu Jiafu was caught, he is really in the cellar." Shitou couldn't wait to report.
Su Tong said: "Director Jiang and his team acted quite quickly this time."
"It's Comrade Qin! Comrade Qin who came to handle the case last time!"
Ma Daming continued, "Lao Jiang said that Comrade Qin reported the situation immediately and requested that a case be opened for investigation and serious handling. Lao Jiang and his men came here immediately after receiving the instructions. The county bureau also took it very seriously and sent people down."
"Comrade Qin?"
Su Tong was a little surprised. She heard from Shi Tou that it was a soldier with a gun who saved her. She never had a chance to ask him in detail, but she didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that it was Qin Yi.
"Yes! It was a coincidence that Comrade Qin was on a mission at Yunshan and saw the fire. When we rushed over, we happened to meet Comrade Qin and his team under the burning tree. Comrade Qin said that the fire was started by humans and asked for help or warned us. Later, he observed the trampled grass and the startled birds...
Anyway, we followed them and found you! Fortunately, we got there in time! Comrade Qin shot the old man in the arm with one shot, and I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat..."
"Where are they?"
"Oh! Speaking of this, I want to praise you! You asked Shitou to tell Comrade Qin to check the trap carefully. As expected, they found the fugitive in the trap. You have made another contribution!"
"Comrade Qin and his men escorted the fugitives to the county seat, and then Lao Jiang and his men received instructions at dawn... This time, the eldest son of the Wu family is..."
Ma Daming smacked his lips and shook his head when he said this.
"Anyway, Sister Tongya's surname is not Wu anymore, so why would they be so cruel!" Shitou said nonchalantly.
"Oh! From now on, your sister Tongya will be homeless and without anyone to rely on..." Ma Daming was a little worried.
Su Tong was very calm, "I never relied on anyone before, and I almost lost my life several times."
She has been here for so long and has Wu Tong's memories. She knows the sufferings and hardships Wu Tong has endured, but there are some things that cannot be understood unless you experience them personally.
She had always tried to look at Wu Dashan's family from a third-party perspective, attributing their actions more to the ignorance and numbness caused by the backwardness of the times. Also, out of consideration for Wu Tong's attachment to this family, she had not yet taken any action to retaliate or punish them for their inferior methods and thoughts.
But later I found out that it wasn’t.
No matter how backward the times are, humanity and family affection will not be wiped out, but this family does not have these things. Their behavior is not ignorant, but they have lost their conscience and are committing a crime.
All they see is greed and selfishness. They will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, even at the cost of human ethics and the lives of others.
Even if Wu Tong was not of the Wu family, she had worked like a slave for more than a decade in the Wu family. She was a living being! Yet they trampled on and spit on her, time and time again.
They should be punished accordingly.
She was originally planning to report the case, but this time she would not let these people go.
It’s just that Qin Yi did it for her first, and with him on board, I believe the result will be more satisfactory.
The next morning, police officers from the county public security bureau came to Su Tong to take a statement and asked him in detail about what happened.
In the afternoon, news came that Wang Guilan had been taken away.
On the third day, Wu Dongling was also taken away.
It is said that the higher-ups have combined this case with the previous case where Wu Tong hit his head against a pillar for investigation, and even Li Youshuan and Wang Laoer, who were far away on the farm, have been brought in for questioning.
Su Tong had been recuperating for two days and her spirits had mostly recovered. During these two days, the two old men stubbornly refused to let her cook. In addition, Su Tong had a wound on her tongue and could not eat anything irritating. As a result, everyone had to eat a few tasteless boiled dishes.
She returned to the kitchen in the evening and showed off her cooking skills by cooking several delicious dishes as a reward for the two old men.
According to the lunar calendar, today is the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, and it is the Little New Year.
Ma Daming has been so busy cooperating with Director Jiang that he has been nowhere to be seen these days. Shitou and Qiuyu have also been detained at home by their mothers for reasons they found. The police have been hanging around the village for a few days, and everyone in the village is worried about being involved in the Wu family's case...
Su Tong planned to treat them to a good meal after this matter was over.
It gets dark early in winter, and there is nothing important to do, so the three of them ate leisurely around the brazier. The firewood was burning brightly, and there was a small pot on top. The whole room was filled with the aroma of meat, and it was a comfortable and satisfying dinner.
After meals, I boiled and drank the medicine as usual. The therapeutic and warming medicines were all drunk meticulously and carefully.
Su Tong checked Lao Lin's leg in the light of the fire. The swelling had gone down and all he had to do was rest. With her watching over him every day, it would not be difficult for him to recover.
After finishing all these, Su Tong got up to clean the kitchen, but before he finished, there was a knock on the gate.
Su Tong looked at the watch. It was almost eight o'clock. Many people in the village were going to bed at this time. He went to open the gate with confusion and saw Xing Dongyang standing at the gate.
This was the first time Xing Dongyang came here since Wang Guilan made a fuss.
"It's Brother Xing! Come in quickly!" Su Tong greeted him while taking off her apron.
Xing Dongyang entered the yard but did not go any further.
"Wu...Oh! Su Tong! I have something to say to you. Let's talk in the yard."
Su Tong raised his head and smiled, "Brother Xing, you are not suddenly trying to avoid suspicion, are you? You were not like this before, and besides, Lao Qi and Lao Lin are here too!"
Xing Dongyang smiled and said, "No, I just want to avoid Lao Qi and Lao Lin."
Su Tong paused, then stood in front of Xing Dongyang, "Brother Xing, then you can speak!"
Xing Dongyang lowered his head slightly, his expression could not be seen clearly in the darkness. When he looked up again, he said:
"Su Tong, I have thought carefully about what Wang Guilan said. Although I don't agree with her approach, I agree with this matter."
