Although Xia Mingjiu is young, he has high emotional intelligence.
When he used to hang out with those hooligans, they were just having fun; they weren't true friends at all.
They took advantage of the fact that when he was about to bully Song Yan, Xia Mingjiu was just a kid with a mischievous hobby, trying to scare people.
He would definitely disagree if they did anything outrageous.
He was careless at the time and didn't think about it too deeply.
In the dead of night on the battlefield, he pondered what had happened. Then it dawned on him: they were abusing their power, doing whatever they pleased!
Although his mother doted on him, he also gained the knowledge and experience that his father had in the army.
A person's perspective is determined by the people they come into contact with in their family environment.
It's especially easy to spot clues about things that Xia Mingjiu cares about.
When Xia Mingjiu first met Liu Hua, the first thing Liu Hua noticed was the bag he was carrying.
Putting everything else aside, Liu Hua is a greedy person.
Shen Qian once said Liu Hua was unreliable, and now he agrees.
This doesn't mean that Xia Ming is smarter or more knowledgeable than Jin Wu.
Moreover, Xia Mingjiu is more innocent at his age; if he thinks someone is bad, then he simply means they are bad.
Jin Wu was more tolerant out of gratitude. He felt that Liu Hua was somewhat greedy and stingy, which was normal given his poverty.
Xia Mingjiu: "Aunt Luo, I'll listen to you."
"You should focus on resting your leg first. I'll take care of everything else, don't worry!"
Xia Mingjiu changed the subject and stopped talking about these things. He tried to get the children to talk.
He borrowed a screwdriver from his neighbor to help them open cans of food.
Liu Hua never left the room and was very attentive to Xia Mingjiu, pouring him water and greeting him warmly.
Aunt Luo had no chance to say anything.
Da Niu and Xia Mingjiu became familiar with each other, and Da Niu pulled Xia Mingjiu down to squat down and talk to her.
To show her filial piety, Liu Hua offered to say that it was time for Aunt Liu to use the restroom. Xia Mingjiu carried Da Niu out, and the child glanced at the closed door, asking in a very soft voice, "Will Uncle Jin come again? I miss Uncle Jin!"
Xia Mingjiu was taken aback. "I know nothing about Uncle Jin's matter!"
Looking into the child's innocent eyes, he didn't lie to him and say that Jin Wensheng was alright. But he couldn't bear to tell him that he couldn't come.
Liu Hua's attitude just now showed that she wouldn't give up the investigation. Therefore, Jin Wensheng has no chance of coming out.
Xia Mingjiu felt quite upset. He hadn't even realized that his initial dislike for Jin Wensheng had now disappeared.
"Uncle Xia, do you think my new clothes are pretty? Aunt Du gave them to me!"
"My mom angered Uncle Jin and Aunt Du, so they're not coming anymore!" Da Niu whispered again.
Xia Mingjiu could tell that the child was wearing new clothes. It wouldn't be surprising for people in Kyoto to have patches on their clothes, let alone in a poor rural area.
Of course, this excludes people like his family.
With Brother Luo's allowance, it's impossible for all the children to have new clothes.
Xia Mingjiu left after a short while.
He felt terrible, but didn't know what to do.
Shen Qian came with him and is now enjoying the shade under a tree in the distance.
Xia Mingjiu also sat on the bench under the tree.
He remained silent for a long time.
It was Shen Qian who spoke first, "Let's come and visit often. In a few days, Aunt Luo will be able to have her second surgery."
Once her surgery is successful, she'll be perfectly capable of taking care of both children, and with everyone helping her out, life won't be too difficult!
Shen Qian was unaware that Xia Mingjiu was thinking about something else.
Xia Mingjiu nodded. "How much will the second surgery cost? Is it a lot?"
"I don't know much about medical matters, but Aunt Luo's second surgery is a reconstructive procedure, which requires a high level of skill. The Jin family hired a very authoritative expert, and the cost was considerable."
"But don't worry about the money, I was planning to pay for it myself." But Jin Wu said, "Let's split it in half." Shen Qian said.
Actually, after her first surgery and recovery, Aunt Luo was able to walk with a limp. There would definitely be some pain, but it would be less than before.
It used to hurt whether I was walking or not.
But the long days were unbearable, with each step a painful experience. She also had to take care of two children.
Everyone's goal is to give her a quality life.
Therefore, I want to treat her as thoroughly as possible.
"The Jin family is also contributing money? Does Aunt Luo know about this?" Xia Mingjiu asked.
Jin Wensheng didn't want Aunt Luo to know about this.
He said, "Liu Hua is Liu Hua, and Aunt Luo is Aunt Luo!" Shen Qian said.
Xia Mingjiu left without saying anything else.
It would be easy for Xia Mingjiu to find out which expert performed the surgery on Grandma Luo, and also to inquire about Grandma Luo's condition and the cost of the surgery.
When Xia Mingjiu hung up the phone, he was completely stunned.
The first surgery cost a lot, and the second surgery will cost even more.
The two surgeries together will probably cost around three thousand. That doesn't even include living expenses. And there are favors owed to others involved.
I heard that Shen Qian is rich, and Jin Wensheng is also well-off, but this money is not a small amount.
Jin Wensheng is still willing to spend money.
Is Jin Wensheng cunning?
Is he trying to gain sympathy by using his sincerity?
Xia Mingjiu shook his head. As long as Liu Hua didn't budge, the outcome wouldn't change.
Even if Aunt Luo pleaded for mercy, it would be in vain.
Paying money on Friday doesn't solve the problem!
