Chapter 279 Car Accident
The next morning, Xu Qingsui bought some things to visit the elderly, and then took Xu Youyou to the Huo family's old house.
Before leaving, she called Mrs. Huo first: "Madam, are you home today? Youyou and I are free, so let's go back to see you together."
When Mrs. Huo heard that Xu Qingsui and her son were coming back, she was so happy that she kept saying, "Come back, I'm at home. You've been married to Xilin for so long, and you still call me Madam?"
Xu Qingsui understood what Mrs. Huo meant, but he felt a little embarrassed and couldn't bring himself to say the word "Mom".
What's more, she is about to leave with her child, and it is a question whether she will be with Huo Xilin in the future. It feels inappropriate to change her mind now.
When she didn't hear any sound, Mrs. Huo didn't get angry either, and quickly said, "I know you're still a little uncomfortable for a while, it's okay, don't have too much psychological burden, take your time."
When Xu Qingsui heard this, he still felt a little warm in his heart.
Compared to the scene three years ago when Xu Qingsui first saw Madam Huo, she was like two completely different people. The current Madam Huo could truly be described as being reasonable.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Qingsui took Xu Youyou and drove to the Huo family's old house.
The Huo family's old house is located on a beautiful hillside in the suburbs. Outside the city, there are green mountains and clear waters all around, and there are fewer vehicles. Driving on the winding mountain road, they are the only car left.
Suddenly, an off-road vehicle appeared in sight. Fortunately, there were two lanes on the road. Xu Qingsui turned the steering wheel sharply and pushed the car directly against the mountain wall, thus avoiding the impact of the off-road vehicle.
The airbag popped out and she felt dizzy and dazed. She quickly turned her head to look at the child behind her. Fortunately, he was fastened with a seat belt. On the surface, the little guy seemed fine, just scared.
"Youyou, are you okay?" Xu Qingsui asked anxiously.
"Mommy, I'm fine. How about you?"
Xu Qingsui shook his head: "Mommy is fine."
At this time, there was a knocking sound on the car window. Xu Qingsui turned his head and saw a strange face printed outside the passenger window. It was a middle-aged man.
Xu Qingsui quickly opened the car door and walked down. She saw the middle-aged man's car parked not far away. Half of her car's wheels fell into the ditch, and the front of the car hit the mountain.
As soon as she got out of the car, the man yelled angrily: "How do you drive? You drove into my way!"
Xu Qingsui snorted coldly. It was the first time she saw someone putting the blame on someone else. However, she was quite calm and said calmly, "This is a cliff. Although there are guardrails, they can't withstand the impact of vehicles. If I hadn't avoided the mountain, my car would have rushed down the cliff. Was it me or you who was occupying the road at the beginning? The traffic police will come and look at the driving recorder and make their own judgment!"
The middle-aged man was visibly losing confidence, and said with a guilty conscience: "I... I didn't expect you to suddenly come from the opposite direction!"
"This is not a reason for you to occupy the road!"
After Xu Qingsui finished speaking, he immediately called the police. Soon the traffic police in charge of the area rushed over. After checking the dashcam, they punished the middle-aged man and found him fully responsible.
The middle-aged man felt that the punishment from the traffic police was meaningless, which was completely different from his attitude when he was talking to Xu Qingsui just now.
After the car was towed away by the repair shop, Xu Qingsui had no choice but to call Mrs. Huo and ask her to send a car to pick up them.
"Are you in a car accident?" Mrs. Huo asked worriedly, "Are you and the child okay? Does Xilin know about this?"
"It's okay, we just hit the mountain, nothing serious, the child and I are fine, ma'am... don't worry, you don't need to tell Huo Xilin."
Now he is busy taking care of Yan Xisui and her son in the hospital, so how could he have time to worry about the safety of her and her son.
Xu Qingsui admitted that she was still angry.
So she didn't want Huo Xilin to get involved in anything concerning her and her child.
"As long as everyone is okay, wait, I'll pick you up right away."
After saying that, Mrs. Huo hung up the phone.
Xu Qingsui pulled Xu Youyou over and examined him carefully. He was relieved only after he was sure that he was not injured at all.
"Mommy, your forehead is bleeding." Xu Youyou said worriedly, and gently lifted her hair with her fingers: "Does it hurt?"
Xu Qingsui took out the makeup box from her bag, took a look at it, and confirmed that it was just a minor scratch. She shook her head and said, "It's okay. Mommy doesn't feel any pain."
The mother and son waited on the roadside for a long time. A black business car stopped in front of them. The housekeeper opened the door and got out: "Mrs. Huo, Master!"
After saying that, he opened the back door, and then Mrs. Huo hurriedly got out of the car.
"Oh, old lady, you have to slow down!" The housekeeper hurriedly supported her.
Xu Qingsui was also very surprised. She didn't expect that Madam Huo would come in person.
Old Madam Huo waved away the housekeeper's hand, walked up to Xu Qingsui and his mother, looked them up and down, and made sure that neither of them was injured before she felt relieved.
Madam Huo picked up Xu Youyou and asked gently, "Are you scared?"
Xu Youyou shook her head: "Grandma, I'm fine, Mommy hit her forehead."
"Really?" After hearing what Xu Youyou said, Mrs. Huo raised her head and looked at Xu Qingsui's forehead. She really found that there was a scratch on the left side of her forehead.
"Let's go to the hospital!" Mrs. Huo said, and carried Xu Youyou into the car. Then she said to Xu Qingsui, "Do you have any injuries anywhere else on your body? You must not hide it from me."
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury, I'm fine." Xu Qingsui said: "Let's go home first, it's getting late."
"That's fine." Madam Huo nodded, and then instructed the housekeeper: "Arrange for the family doctor to come over immediately and check up on the mother and son, so that I can rest assured."
"Don't worry, madam. I have already arranged it." said the butler.
Mrs. Huo nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Xu Qingsui: "Uncle Zhang is the old housekeeper of the family. I feel relieved when he does things. By the way, where is your car?"
Mrs. Huo looked around but didn't see the crime scene.
"It has been towed away by a tow truck. It just hit the gable. It's okay." Xu Qingsui said lightly.
Old Madam Huo looked in the direction of Xu Qingsui's finger and discovered that there was a large dent on the ground, which showed that the impact was quite forceful.
"Oh, why are you so careless? Did you bump into it yourself or was there some other reason?"
Xu Qingsui said: "A car coming from the opposite direction blocked my way. I saw it was going to hit me, so I dodged inside and ended up crashing into the wall."
