"You two have to go to the hospital with me today." Cheng Zhilan was busy running around the house, as if she wanted to renovate the entire house in just half an hour, but the tone she spoke to her son and daughter did not allow for any objection.
There was a reason why she walked from there to here with a broom... Actually, it was just out of anxiety. When Cheng Zhilan was upset, she would either curse or do housework. Today, the brother and sister were lucky that she didn't curse, but chose to keep busy to divert her attention.
"Can you two get up and help do something? You just lie there doing nothing all day!"
It seemed that her luck wasn't very good. Chen Shikui stood up and just picked up the broom, wanting to help her, when Cheng Zhilan said the next sentence: "Okay, put it down. Look at your movements, you are so slow and clumsy, how can you help her!"
"......" Anger crept onto Chen Shikui's face. The rebellious girl was almost like a powder keg, which was instantly ignited and was about to choke her mother. However, Chen Tinghan pulled the corner of her clothes and took her to sit down.
Chen Shikui naturally sat in her brother's arms on the sofa and listened to him whisper: "She's been in a bad mood recently and has a lot on her mind. Don't take it too seriously."
"When you are in a bad mood, you take it out on me." Chen Shikui muttered to vent his dissatisfaction.
Chen Tinghan just smiled and said nothing. Cheng Zhilan, who was standing beside him, finally finished her meaningless cleaning. Looking at the two siblings hugging each other, she felt relieved but also suddenly felt a little uneasy. Finally, she said in a sullen tone: "Why don't you change your clothes? Why are you still lying here?"
"Okay, okay, I'll change it right away." Chen Tinghan did as he was told.
His younger sister Shikui is in her rebellious phase, but he is not.
......
......
Hospital.
"I don't know how to thank you." Cheng Dayong's wife, Pan Jiamei, held Cheng Zhilan's hand. Although her face was haggard, her gratitude was still overflowing when she spoke, which made Cheng Zhilan sigh, thinking that the other party had been too tense during this period.
Cheng Zhilan said, "It's only natural. We're all family. If you don't even come to see Dayong when he's injured like that, are you still a human being?"
As she spoke, she took out a cowhide bag and said, "This is a small token of my condolence."
Pan Jiamei was stunned. She lowered her head and began to sob. She said, "You have already helped us so much. From the transfer procedures to the medical expenses for such a long stay in the ICU, it's all a favor. If you take this money again, we will not be human beings."
Cheng Zhilan was also stunned. She looked at the luxurious decoration of the ward again, confused for a moment, then glanced at her son with some feeling, and then said nonchalantly: "Don't mention these things. Brothers and sisters are definitely going to help each other when something happens."
Chen Tinghan was also a little dumbfounded. He guessed who might have done it, but he didn't know whether it was Lin Xueyan or Wang Jinling.
She still didn't take the money, so Cheng Zhilan had to put it on the table and then sat on another hospital bed with her two children.
"Don't be polite, eat whatever you want." Pan Jiamei greeted them and peeled apples for the family. She said, "Actually, coming to see us now is just a token of your appreciation. It's okay if you don't come. We all have things to do. We just want to seek justice for Dayong."
"Dayong's injury has stabilized, and he's getting better." Cheng Zhilan looked at Cheng Dayong who was sleeping soundly, and spoke in a slightly concealed voice, not intending to wake him up intentionally.
"Yes, there are no problems with his sleeping and eating, but sometimes he wakes up in pain, and he is suspicious all the time. Even when the nurse changes his dressing, he suspects that she is trying to harm him." Pan Jiamei said with concern.
"He must be scared." Cheng Zhilan sighed.
The two chatted, and the two younger ones were unable to get a word in. Only Chen Tinghan would occasionally chime in. Later, the topic shifted to the Cheng family and mentioned Cheng Jun, saying, "Brother Jun is really dedicated. He hasn't been able to do business during this period, but he has also given our family a sum of money to help us survive. We are all very grateful to him, but, hey, there is something I have to say that I can't help but get off my chest."
Cheng Zhilan sighed secretly. She could probably guess what was going on, but she asked knowingly, "What's going on?"
"The men of the Cheng family are all brave," Pan Jiamei said. "And what happened to Dayong was a sacrifice to protect the village. If someone hits us, we should fight back. But Jun, he's just a coward after all."
"Sister, what you said is wrong." Cheng Zhilan said with a hint of reproach: "If Jun-ge is still afraid of trouble, then why would he take on such a big responsibility? How he usually stands up for us is obvious to everyone."
"I know, I just can't get over it!" Pan Jiamei said seriously, "Just suppose, I mean suppose, if this happened to Brother Chen, your family would definitely be like me, wanting to teach them a lesson!"
Cheng Zhilan was silent. This was indeed the truth. On the one hand, one should persuade people to be magnanimous and consider the overall situation, but everyone has feelings.
Chen Tinghan was listening on the side. This was a conversation between elders. It was meaningless for a junior to talk about some principles. No one would take it seriously.
The atmosphere was tense and uncomfortable. Just when the two women didn't know what to do, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Pan Jiamei thought it was a nurse, so she said, "Come in."
The person who came in was a young girl. She was very polite and bowed slightly to everyone. Her appearance made people feel warm and relaxed. However, it startled Chen Tinghan. His scalp was about to explode. He said through gritted teeth, "Why are you here?"
"Because I heard you were here." The visitor was Wang Jinling. She smiled sweetly and said, "Don't you welcome me?"
"......" Pan Jiamei was a little surprised and asked, "Who is this?"
Chen Tinghan held his forehead and said, "My, learning..."
"Girlfriend." She answered first, walked up to the two parents, and asked with concern, "Are you satisfied with the hospital facilities and accommodation conditions? The medical skills of Wanghai hospitals are generally poor. I have invited experts from outside the province to rush here. I will see him when the time comes."
The two parents were immediately startled, unsure whether to focus on the word "girlfriend" first or ask about the rest. After a moment, Pan Jiamei stood up, discerning priorities, and asked, "Yes, were you the one who asked the vice president for a consultation for our family? Thank you so much."
"My name is Wang Jinling, just call me Jinling." Wang Jinling said humbly, "Ahan's affairs are my affairs. I'm very happy that you can accept this insignificant kindness."
Chen Tinghan on the side thought this was too magical. On one side was the daughter of the abuser, and on the other side was the family of the victim. They were so respectful, humble and peaceful to each other. This world must be crazy.
