The matter of "20,000 yuan" was like a thorn stuck in his heart, causing him great distress.
After thinking it over again and again, Wang Pizi got up and went to Wu Ruixue's room. After entering the room, he began to search.
First, he found all of Wu Ruixue's underwear. When he saw the patterns on them, he smiled lewdly. However, at the moment, he was more concerned about money than these things.
After searching around several times, he still couldn't find the money.
Instead, he found something unexpected inside the house.
A T-shirt printed with "Dragon Cup Champion".
Upon seeing this T-shirt, Wang Pizi could no longer suppress his joy.
"groove!"
"That bitch!"
"Hiding money behind my back? Don't you even respect me as the head of the family?!"
As he spoke, he sat down in the yard with his T-shirt in hand, quietly waiting for Yin Hong to return.
Around noon, the door to the house in the courtyard was pushed open.
As soon as Yin Hong pushed the car in, she saw Wang Pizi sitting in the middle of the yard with a dark face, holding Xiaoxue's T-shirt in his hand.
Wu Ruixue's expression changed drastically after seeing the clothes that Wang Pizi had obtained.
The mother and daughter already knew what was going to happen next.
"You fucking..."
Wang the Scoundrel, carrying his clothes, walked straight toward Yin Hong.
Without a second thought, Wu Ruixue abandoned her mother and ran toward the village store.
When the shop owner saw Wu Ruixue's flustered appearance, he immediately guessed what had happened and picked up the phone to make a call.
The call was quickly connected, and Wu Ruixue snatched the phone, tears streaming down her face.
"Uncle! Uncle!"
"Come quick!"
"If you don't come soon, that bastard is going to beat my mom to death!"
A short while later, the sound of police sirens rang out from the village entrance.
Two peaked caps hurried toward Wu Ruixue's house, while in the courtyard, Wang Pizi had already picked up a machete and pointed it straight at Yin Hong.
"You filthy woman!"
"You're not going to give me the money from selling your daughter?"
Yin Hong's eyes were bloodshot as she glared fiercely at Wang the Scoundrel.
When Wang Pizi saw Yin Hong's attitude, he became even angrier. Taking advantage of the fact that the people around him were a step too slow to stop him, he went up and slapped Yin Hong across the face.
The slap was neither too hard nor too light, and considering that Yin Hong was already physically weak and had been suffering from chronic illness due to overwork, this was not the case.
When the slap landed, Yin Hong didn't even have the slightest reaction; she simply collapsed to the ground, motionless.
Seeing that Yin Hong had fainted, Wu Ruixue hurriedly grabbed a kitchen knife and rushed towards Wang Pizi.
"You dare touch my mother! I'll kill you!"
Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, the man in the peaked cap stopped Wu Ruixue and Wang Pizi, and hurriedly notified others to call an ambulance.
...
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Lin Yifeng and Xu Qingyi had just come out of the bathhouse and were planning to grab a quick bowl of noodles downstairs before picking up Yin Hong in the afternoon to go to Stone Village together.
Little did they know that the two had barely sat down and taken a couple of bites when Xu Qingyi's cell phone started vibrating.
Xu Qingyi answered the phone, her expression gradually turning somewhat unpleasant.
"What's going on?"
"Um……"
"ah?"
"I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yifeng took a bite of an egg and looked at Xu Qingyi with a puzzled expression.
Xu Qingyi held the phone, speaking with a serious expression.
"Brother Feng, the young guys at the station just told me that Wu Ruixue's mother has been taken to the hospital."
"ah?"
Lin Yifeng was also somewhat surprised to hear this news.
Judging from Yin Hong's frail appearance, he figured that if she continued living in this house, something bad would happen sooner or later.
But he didn't expect things to happen so suddenly.
"What's going on?"
Lin Yifeng quickly cleaned up the noodles in the bowl.
Xu Qingyi patiently explained to Lin Yifeng what had happened on Wu Ruixue's side.
After all this was over, Lin Yifeng wiped the corner of his mouth.
"Eat quickly."
"After we finish eating, let's go to the hospital."
Xu Qingyi nodded; he was also extremely anxious at that moment.
After the two finished their meal, when they arrived at the hospital, Yin Hong had already woken up from her coma.
Wu Ruixue was sitting in the hospital corridor, covering her face and crying. Beside her was a man in a peaked cap, who was constantly comforting and reassuring her, afraid that she might do something rash again.
Upon seeing Lin Yifeng arrive, Wu Ruixue, who had been holding back her emotions, finally broke down and burst into tears, rushing towards Lin Yifeng.
"Brother, my mom, she..."
"Yes, I know. I'll go ask the doctor."
Lin Yifeng gently patted Wu Ruixue's back, then turned to Xu Qingyi and whispered instructions.
"Qingyi, go settle the medical bills first, and while you're at it, go downstairs and buy some fruit or something."
Accompanied by Lin Yifeng, Wu Ruixue went with him to see the doctor.
The doctor reassured the two that Yin Hong's coma was mainly due to the shock, coupled with her already weak constitution and her sub-healthy state.
The most important thing now is to rest and recuperate. Once you've recovered, everything will be fine.
As for the others, they are all old problems; Yin Hong just needs to pay more attention to them.
Hearing that her mother was alright, Wu Ruixue finally breathed a sigh of relief and kept thanking the doctor along the way.
After the doctor left, Lin Yifeng took a deep breath and asked Wu Ruixue in a low voice what had happened.
After Wu Ruixue recounted what had happened at home, Lin Yifeng was also somewhat worried.
