Liang Qingshu walked into the ward and saw Director Liao looking so slovenly. She felt a little sad. Back then in Beijing, Director Liao was her first love, and they had tasted the forbidden fruit.
When she found out she was pregnant, Director Liao had already left Beijing, so she agreed to her family's request and married Gu Tingkai, the third son of the Gu family at the time. This also helped her find a father for her daughter and did not bring shame to herself and the Liang family.
Director Liao looked at the woman standing in front of him in confusion. It took him a while to recognize the woman he once loved. He looked at Liang Qingshu with some excitement, but unfortunately he was paralyzed now and could not move. He could not sit up even if he wanted to.
"Qingshu, is that you? Are you here to see me?"
Liang Qingshu smiled and said.
"Mingzhong, how did you become like this?" Liang Qingshu said with tears in her eyes, looking very sad.
Director Liao also smiled bitterly after hearing this.
"Alas, it's possible that I've offended too many people over the years, and I'm being retaliated against. But in my current state, there's no way I can find out who's behind this."
Liao Mingzhong knew that it would be very difficult to find the person who took revenge on him, and he might never find him in his lifetime.
Director Liao was very moved when he saw Liang Qingshu, who was sad for him. He knew that his wife had been living in the county town all these years, while he lived alone in the dormitory of the Revolutionary Committee of Hongqi Commune.
He and his wife had no feelings for each other over the years, so when he was injured and hospitalized this time, his wife only came to see him every three or two days, and did not take good care of him, just letting him fend for himself.
Now seeing that Liang Qingshu still cared about him so much, he was very touched and hurried to comfort her.
"Qingshu, don't be sad. Since I'm already like this, it's useless to be sad. Are you doing well now?"
Liang Qingshu wiped her tears and said in a low voice.
"The Gu family is in trouble now, and they have no money. My daughter, you know, is now working in the countryside. Thank you for your kindness some time ago, otherwise the child would not have survived. But now looking at you like this, how can I have the nerve to ask you to borrow money!"
Liang Qingshu said it embarrassedly, but the implication of her words was that I have no money and want to borrow some from you.
Director Liao didn't think too much about it. He was now a pauper. He heard from his subordinates that everything he had hidden in the cellar was gone. It seemed that the person who wanted to take revenge on him had taken it away.
Although he was very puzzled as to how those people had quietly stolen the things he had saved, the fact was that the things were gone, and he just couldn't figure it out.
However, he still had a secret place to hide treasures, but those were meant for his children, so he definitely couldn't lend them to Liang Qingshu. After all, she was already married to someone else, and he wasn't her man, so how could he care so much? In his current state, the only person he could really rely on in the future was his own biological son.
Liang Qingshu said so much just to get some money from Director Liao, but after they talked for a long time, Director Liao seemed not to understand and did not mention giving her money.
In the end, the mother and daughter left the hospital disappointed.
"Mom, I think Director Liao is unwilling to lend us money. What should we do? Where is Dad now?"
Speaking of Gu Tingkai, Liang Qingshu also had a deep resentment towards him. This time she came to visit Gu Yulan. Originally, they had agreed to come together and let Gu Tingkai find trouble with that little bitch. Who knew that the bastard Gu Tingkai was actually seduced away by a vixen? When she was about to leave, she couldn't find him no matter what. In desperation, she had to come here alone.
Liang Qingshu now doesn't know what to do. Before she came, Director Liao was fine, but when she got here, she found out that Director Liao was retaliated against and became paralyzed. This caught her off guard. Now she wants to go back, but she dare not spend the money she has.
"Let's go back first! Lanlan, I guess there's no way I can let you return to the city this time. Please be patient for now. After I go back, I'll think of a way to see if I can find an excuse to let you return to the city."
Gu Yulan nodded. To be honest, she hadn't gotten Brother Chen Hao yet. She didn't want to go back, but she still had to do farm work here. Her hands were calloused, and she didn't know when she would be able to make Brother Chen Hao like her.
It was already dark when the mother and daughter returned to Liushutun. As soon as they reached the entrance of Liushutun village, they met the team leader Zhou Shuming.
"Oh, Gu Zhiqing! Did you and your daughter just come back from the commune?"
Liang Qingshu smiled and nodded. "Captain! Let's go for a walk. What are you doing...?"
To be honest, Liang Qingshu really dislikes Captain Zhou Shuming. She heard from her daughter that this captain is not a good person.
Zhou Shuming said, "My wife said that Gu Zhiqing's mother came from Beijing to our Northeast and wanted to invite you to her home for a simple meal. She also wants to chat with you about family matters."
Liang Qingshu hesitated for a moment, thinking that her daughter would have to live here in the future, and said.
"Sister-in-law, you are so polite. Let me and the child go back and wash up first, and then we will go over later."
Zhou Shuming said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll go back and wait."
The mother and daughter returned to the house in the Youth League compound, washed up, and then walked towards Zhou Shuming's house.
"Mom, why did you agree to him? He's not a good man. He's had sex with several women in our educated youth camp."
Liang Qingshu smiled and shook her head.
"Lanlan, you have to know that if you want to live here, you must have a good relationship with the captain."
Gu Yulan naturally knew this, so when Zhou Shuming said he wanted to treat them and their daughter to a meal, she did not stop her mother from agreeing.
The two of them took advantage of the moonlight to walk to Zhou Shuming's house. At this time, the gate of the courtyard was open and there was no one in the yard, so the mother and daughter walked in directly.
Standing in the atom, Liang Qingshu frowned. Normally, everyone at home should be here at this time! But why is the yard so quiet?
Liang Qingshu brought Gu Yulan into the main room, where they saw several dishes placed on the kang table under a kerosene lamp, two of which appeared to be meat dishes.
The mother and daughter looked at each other, then looked at the next house. When they heard the noise, they walked towards the house to the east.
However, as soon as they entered, before they could react, someone covered their mouths and noses. They were shocked and wanted to shout, but they found themselves dizzy and fell down uncontrollably.
Zhou Shuming then let out a breath and said to the woman beside him.
"Carry them onto the kang. If you want to watch, stay!"
