She tiptoed out of the bunk bed and then left the room.
At that moment, Su Xiaowei, who had also heard the sound, walked out of Qiushou's room.
When Qiu Yang and Qiu Yue turned on the lights in their home, Qiu Shui and Su Xiaowei felt relieved to see them in front of them.
In fact, only Qiushou and Qiuchan were asleep at home, and Qiushui and Su Xiaowei couldn't fall asleep at all.
Su Xiaowei looked at Qiu Yang with some surprise:
"Qiuyang, is your dad alright?"
She used a question.
In her mind, Qiu Yang's father should be alright, otherwise Qiu Yang and Qiu Yue wouldn't have rushed back in the middle of the night, and their expressions upon returning home didn't show much tension or sadness.
Qiu Yang then told Su Xiaowei and her younger sister Qiu Shui about her father's injuries.
Of course, everything went according to the script: the father was attacked on his way home from a business trip.
Qiu Shui blinked her large, watery eyes and asked:
"Brother, did Dad say who attacked him? If I find him, I'll tear him to pieces!"
Qiu Shui was speaking from the heart; she was truly capable of doing it.
Qiu Yang didn't answer, but just shook his head at Qiu Shui.
His younger sister was still young and said some harsh things, but he could only laugh it off and understand that Qiu Shui had a clear sense of right and wrong.
"Okay, Mom and Dad want you to go to bed early. Dad should recover soon."
After saying that, Qiu Yang looked at Su Xiaowei and said:
"Xiaowei, thank you for your hard work. How about this, you and Qiuyue go to sleep in Mom and Dad's bed, and I'll sleep in Qiuyue's bed."
After saying that, he turned and left, found a vest, and went to the bathroom first to take a cold shower and change into dry clothes.
Qiu Yue then took Su Xiaowei's hand and led her into her parents' bedroom. She turned on the bedside lamp and said to Su Xiaowei:
"Sister Xiaowei, you go to sleep first. I'll take a shower after my brother takes a shower."
Su Xiaowei said thank you and went straight to bed.
Qiuyue then turned on the electric fan in her parents' bedroom and started shaking it at the bed.
The next morning, Qiuyue got up very early, made porridge, and went to the dormitory area to buy sesame seed cakes and fried dough sticks.
When Qiushou and Qiuchan woke up in the morning and saw their older brother and sister return, they immediately asked about the attack on their father.
Qiu Yang told Qiu Shou and Qiu Chan that their father only had a minor injury and should be able to come home in a couple of days.
Following her mother's instructions at the hospital, Qiu Yang retrieved the family savings book, took leave from work using the family phone, went to the post office savings bank, withdrew the money, took a bus to the hospital, and paid the outstanding hospitalization and treatment fees for Qiu Jingwen.
When he returned to his ward after completing the payment procedures, he found that Qiushui, Qiuchan, and Qiushou had already arrived at the hospital.
"Autumn harvest, autumn cicadas, autumn waters, what brings you all here? I should have come with me."
Qiu Shou laughed and said:
"Brother, Qiu Chan and I want to come with you. Would you agree?"
A single question left Qiu Yang speechless.
In fact, when Qiu Yang went to the post office to withdraw money, the three siblings, led by Qiu Shui, braved the scorching sun and first walked to the bus station near the factory area, then went to the county town, and then transferred to another bus to the city. It took them almost noon to complete all the transfers.
Jiang Yuping could understand the children's feelings; they loved their father and didn't want anything to happen to him.
Upon arriving at the ward, Qiu Shou and Qiu Chan threw themselves at Qiu Jingwen, tears streaming down their faces.
Qiu Shui, her eyes brimming with tears, gripped Qiu Jingwen's hand, sobbing uncontrollably.
Seeing how much the children loved their father, Jiang Yuping was also moved.
She knew in her heart that in the children's eyes, their father was the best father in the world, a god in their hearts.
Because it was only a mild concussion, and Jiang Yuping herself is a doctor, Qiu Jingwen was discharged from the hospital around noon.
The family of seven, except for Qiuyue who was not at the hospital, had lunch at a nearby restaurant, and then took a bus back to the factory and went straight home.
the next day,
After Qiu Jingwen returned to work, the rumors that he had been arrested by the police and might be a spy or the murderer of the barber were dispelled.
Everyone thought that if Qiu Jingwen had a problem, he wouldn't have been released so quickly.
Moreover, everyone believed that Qiu Jingwen was not arrested by the police, but was really on a business trip.
Upon seeing Qiu Jingwen, Jin Dahai was so moved that tears streamed down his face.
He spoke like a spineless woman, wiping away tears:
"Director Qiu, there were so many rumors about you in the factory while you were away. Now that you're back at work, all those rumors have become a joke."
Qiu Jingwen simply smiled at Jin Dahai:
"Dahai, let's not talk about this. Come with me to the workshop for a look around."
He finally understood that Shao Jian and the others had arranged things this way in order to turn him against his own side and keep him in his original state.
After Qiu Jingwen returned from his walk around the workshop, statistician Zhang Xiaohui walked in.
She first placed a stack of reports on Qiu Jingwen's desk, and then handed him a brown paper letter.
"Director Qiu, one is a report that needs your signature, and the other is a private letter sent to you."
After Zhang Xiaohui finished her report, she turned and left the office.
Qiu Jingwen glanced at the report and put it aside, instead picking up the letter.
The envelope only had the recipient's name and address written on it, but not the sender's name and address.
This immediately put Qiu Jingwen on alert.
He carefully opened the envelope, and then, with curiosity and even a little nervousness, pulled out the letter.
As Qiu Jingwen quickly scanned the contents of the letter, his expression began to change slightly, and his heartbeat quickened.
