Chapter 306
Zhong Lan carried Yao Zaoer into the cave and saw the mess in the house and Aunt Xie, Yao's father and Yao Hong groaning in pain on the ground.
Zhong Lan suddenly felt a little relieved. Fortunately, she and Zao'er went to the hospital, otherwise, she and Zao'er might have been beaten by that cruel family.
Yao Hong saw Zhong Lan and Yao Zao'er, struggled to get up and asked, "Mom said Zao'er was burned. Is it serious?"
Zhong Lan's face was gloomy. "It's very serious. Children's skin is already tender. Such scalding water fell on her, and her mother didn't take her to the hospital right away. Her skin was burned and rotten. The doctor said that she needs to change the dressing every day during this period, and go to the hospital for a follow-up check next week, otherwise she will be left with ugly scars."
"How did Zao'er get burned?" Yao Hong asked in confusion.
Zhong Lan glanced at Aunt Xie, who was still groaning on the ground. "Mom went to find Yao Yi and locked her up at home. She accidentally bumped into the cabinet and the thermos fell, scalding herself."
Yao Hong took a breath and didn't know what to say to the fuck.
Yao Yi is important, but we can’t leave a child as young as Zao’er alone at home!
"You're back just in time. If you had come back earlier and run into Ma Yong's crazy family, I'm really afraid they would have beaten you and Zao'er too." Yao Hong said, "Go cook for everyone and then clean up the house."
Zhong Lan looked at Yao Hong coldly: "I don't cook, and I don't clean up. Because whoever's house is in such a state will do the cleaning. My daughter is burned like this, I don't have the heart to eat, nor do I have the heart to cook for you."
After saying that, Zhong Lan carried Yao Zaoer out.
She was going to take Yao Zao'er to a state-owned restaurant. As for what Yao Hong and the others ate or how the house was cleaned, that was none of her business.
If they are willing to make their lives a mess for Yao Yi, then they can go ahead and she will not clean up the mess for them.
Yao Hong sighed as he watched Zhong Lan carrying Yao Zaoer out.
…
After the Yao family incident, the Spring Festival was approaching.
For the people living in the slum, this is destined to be an uneasy Spring Festival.
As the Spring Festival approached, a lot of things happened in the slum.
The first thing is that Old Man Duan just got married.
Because both of them were getting married at an old age, they didn't hold a wedding, but just invited close friends to a simple meal.
Old man Duan’s new wife’s surname is Tao. She is also a widow, but her husband has been dead for several years. Unlike Old man Duan, Old lady Duan has only been dead for a few months, but he couldn’t wait to get married.
On the day when Old Man Duan and Old Lady Tao got married, except for the two of them and Old Lady Tao's family who were in high spirits, everyone else in the Duan family looked unhappy.
The people in the compound also gathered together, gossiping in low voices about this matter. It was not surprising that Ye Fuyue's family was gossiping about this.
"Old man Duan is really a piece of shit. It hasn't been long since Old Lady Duan died! He already married a new old lady. The key point is that when Old Lady Duan died, he didn't say a word of sadness. Instead, he said that Old Lady Duan deserved to die! Moreover, after Duan Dawei and Zhao Yuan divorced, Dawei didn't rush to remarry. Old man Duan got married before his grandson." Aunt Donghong felt very sorry for Old Lady Duan.
"When I heard that Old Man Duan was going to marry this new old lady, everyone in the Duan family opposed it. They thought that not only had Old Lady Duan died not long ago, but this new old lady was in a hurry to marry in, which showed that her intentions were not very good. Old Man Duan scolded Duan's mother and the others severely, and said that he could marry whoever he wanted and whenever he wanted, and the other members of the Duan family had no right to interfere." Chen Guifeng said.
"When Old Lady Duan was still alive, was Old Man Duan already with this new Old Lady?" Cui Li asked.
"Almost certainly." Aunt Donghong said, "Even if they weren't together at that time, they must have been attracted to each other."
Cui Li sighed: "Men, they are really nothing."
Wu Zhenzhen laughed and said, "There are still good men, but there are also many men who are worthless."
Aunt Donghong nodded in agreement: "I think that new old lady is definitely not an easy person to deal with. I'm afraid life at home will be difficult these days."
Ye Fuyue said while munching on some melon seeds, "Old Man Duan is still living a comfortable life, but Mother Duan and Caixia are probably going to have a hard time."
After talking about the gossip about the Duan family, Ye Fuyue and the others started talking about another gossip in the slum.
Aunt Yue's son, Yue Cai, is getting married to the very girl Aunt Qian had chosen to marry her son. The wedding is in the next few days.
When Aunt Qian learned that Yue Cai was going to marry that girl, she was so angry that she scolded Aunt Yue at home all day long.
Qian Qiang also comforted her: "Mom, you should be thankful that I haven't met that girl yet. If I had met that girl and she wanted to marry Yue Cai, that would have been really embarrassing."
"If you really fell in love with that girl, Yue Cai would have no chance! You are much better looking than Yue Cai. As long as the girl is not blind, she will choose you instead of Yue Cai. Your aunt Yue knew this. She knew that Yue Cai's appearance could not compare to yours, so she secretly intercepted the matter and married the girl to Yue Cai!" Aunt Qian said angrily.
"Yue Cai and I have different appearances. Maybe that girl likes Yue Cai's type. Mom, don't be angry. According to what you said, I am not bad looking. There is no need to worry about not finding a good girl."
"Yes! You are so good-looking and have a job, you will definitely be able to find a girl who is better than Yue Cai's wife!" said Aunt Qian.
Although this is the truth, Aunt Qian still felt uncomfortable when she saw Yue Cai marrying that girl.
But Aunt Yue was still showing off in front of Aunt Qian, which made Aunt Qian very angry. The relationship between the two was officially broken.
If these two pieces of gossip are nothing, then the biggest gossip before the Spring Festival is that Liang's father drove away Liang's aunt and Liang Tianxiong, and he drove them away on New Year's Eve.
The reason was that the Chinese New Year was approaching, and Aunt Liang had been confined to her room by her father for so long that she was already tired of it and wanted to go out and buy some New Year's goods.
Liang's father did not express his opinion in front of Aunt Liang, but asked Cui Li privately.
"During this time, you followed Tianxiong. Did you see him come into contact with Old Man Chen?"
In fact, Cui Li had seen Liang Tianxiong and Old Man Chen interact several times. Every time, Old Man Chen would ask Liang Tianxiong about Aunt Liang's situation and give him some snacks. Liang Tianxiong told Old Man Chen about everything at home, listened to what he said, and went back without saying anything.
However, facing Liang's father, Cui Li said, "I don't always follow Tianxiong. Tianxiong plays outside every day, but I have to take care of the family and Mom. Mom really doesn't like me going out. The few times I followed Tianxiong, I didn't see him interact with Old Man Chen."
Liang's father stood with his hands behind his back, looking thoughtful and silent.
