Ding Xiaoxi happened to come down from the mountain and encountered this incident. She scared away Zhou Likang, who was beating someone, and rescued Wu Xinjie.
Wu Xinjie was injured and walked with a limp, so Ding Xiaoxi took him to the Yu family's house.
Yu Rujia took out a bottle of medicine and asked Duoshou to apply it to Wu Xinjie.
Ding Xiaoxi said indignantly from the side: "This educated youth Zhou is so shameless. He hurt Aunt Zhu like this and he has no remorse at all. He even beat her. After the injury was treated, Comrade Wu went to the brigade leader to make a decision."
Zhou Likang and Wu Yuanyuan's new house was right next to the educated youth compound. If they spoke a little loudly, everyone in the compound could hear them.
Ding Xiaoxi had known Zhou Likang for six years, and they had lived together in the same educated youth compound for five years before that. They spent every day together, so she knew what kind of person he was.
Even though Zhou Likang never showed his face during the entire process of how they harmed Zhu Jiaojiao, everyone in the educated youth compound knew that he must have been the one instigating Wu Yuanyuan to do these things.
In Yu Rujia's opinion, Zhu Jiaojiao was punished because she herself was not clear-headed. She knew that Zhou Likang was not trustworthy, but she still foolishly took the money and went to Captain Huang. She deserved to be punished.
Yu Rujia: "There is no evidence to prove what Zhou Zhiqing did. It was Comrade Wu who initiated the beating. Even if we report it to the brigade leader, if Zhou Zhiqing insists that he acted in self-defense, no one can do anything to him."
Zhou Likang is shameless. Judging from his past behavior, he will definitely wash his hands of what Ding Xiaoxi said.
Ding Xiaoxi: "So Comrade Wu suffered this loss for nothing?"
I can't beat them in a fight, so what else can I do but eat their food for free?
Wu Xinjie was disheartened that he couldn't accomplish what he wanted to do: "Let's just let this go and learn from this experience. As for Yuanyuan, from today onwards, I'll pretend I don't have this little sister anymore."
A younger sister whom you've spoiled for twenty years can't be let go of all at once.
In order to be with Zhou Likang, she even severed ties with the Wu family. Wu Xinjie thought she was being deceived by Zhou Likang and that she would come back to him once she discovered his true colors, and then they would still be a family.
The couple had been married for a year, and Wu Yuanyuan already knew what kind of person Zhou Likang was, yet she stubbornly persisted in using a self-inflicted injury scheme to trick her own mother.
During Zhu Jiaojiao's punishment, she didn't even come out to say a word to them or hand them anything, as if everything had nothing to do with them.
With such a cold-hearted nature, it's no wonder she would associate with someone like Zhou Likang; they are kindred spirits.
Wu Xinjie was truly heartbroken and decided that even if Wu Yuanyuan begged him in the future, he would not pay her any attention.
Yu Rujia: "Comrade Wu didn't break any bones. Take a bottle of ointment home and rub it on once or twice a day. After a few days, he will be almost fully recovered."
Wu Xinjie took the medicine and walked out with Ding Xiaoxi. Yu Rujia could still hear Ding Xiaoxi comforting Wu Xinjie: "Comrade Wu, don't be sad. Zhou Zhiqing only cares about himself. He will get his comeuppance one day."
After everyone disappeared, Duolu scurried out of the inner room, followed by several younger brothers: "Brother Wu is really useless. If it were me, I would have beaten Zhou Zhiqing until he knelt down and begged for mercy."
It goes without saying that these guys were hiding in the back eavesdropping.
Duolu, who had killed many prey in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, had this confidence.
Yu Rujia: "Do you remember what we taught you? You can insult others, but you can't start a fight. If someone attacks you, you can fight back, but you have to be careful not to cripple or injure them."
Duolu nodded casually: "I remember, we don't hit people. And the educated youth Zhou wouldn't dare to mess with us."
Zhou Likang is a person of questionable character. When he bullies others, he will choose his targets carefully. He will not provoke anyone who is tough to deal with.
He always kept his distance from families like the Yu family, whose strength far surpassed that of the Shangfen Brigade, and dared not make any moves against them.
The only families he dared to provoke were the Wu family, a small household with no particular support.
If Yu Rujia were Wu Xinjie, she definitely wouldn't have gone in person knowing she wasn't strong enough.
He was a worker, he had money, and a meal of meat was enough to make people go and beat up Zhou Likang.
He tried to do it himself, but not only did he fail, he was also beaten up and had nowhere to complain. He had no choice but to swallow his anger.
Dorje said regretfully, "Tsk tsk, if only Zhou Zhiqing had messed with me, I could have had a go at him."
Dorje was really into martial arts training. He was such a little guy, everyone in his family wanted to challenge him, and he was either getting beaten up or on his way to get beaten up every day.
Occasionally, he would go to Zhang Pandi to challenge Shen Yan, or go to the Wei family to challenge Wei Hanjie, and he would always be beaten to the ground.
Duoxi laughed heartily and patted his round little head, saying, "Forget about it. In all these years of your life, who have you ever beaten? You've never beaten a single one. In front of Zhou Zhiqing, you'll only get beaten."
No, Zhou Likang is just an ordinary person. Dorje, after all, grew up under the crushing influence of his older brothers for two or three years.
He was the weakest at home, but when he went to the brigade, he was a howling Tibetan mastiff, and few of the adults in the brigade could match him.
Dorjee pulled his hand off his head unhappily and said firmly, "I'm just young now. When I'm older, I'll definitely be better than all of you."
Duolu grabbed Duoji's neck with his arm and dragged him toward the backyard with a grin: "To become a powerful person, you have to go through countless trials. Come on, let your second brother give you a little training."
Dorje was quite arrogant; Yu Rujia, who was in the infirmary, could hear his booming voice: "Come on then, who's afraid of who?"
Duole's big, clear eyes swept over Rujia, then glanced at her older brother who was being dragged away by her second brother. The little dumpling wanted to stay with her mother, but also wanted to go cheer for her older brother. The little girl couldn't decide where to stay.
Yu Rujia chuckled and said, "Go if you want to."
Duo Shou put his arm around his small body: "Come on, let's go to the backyard with Third Brother."
The little dumpling jumped up happily: "Mom, I'm leaving."
The little guy followed his third brother's footsteps with his chubby little legs, his little back view revealing a joyful spirit. Children's happiness is so simple.
A few days later, Wu Dazhu brought Zhu Jiaojiao to the Yu family for medical treatment.
At this moment, Zhu Jiaojiao smelled foul, had lost a lot of weight, and her cheeks were flushed with an abnormal redness, making her appear as if she might faint at any moment.
Wu Dazhu: "Could you please ask Yu Zhiqing to take a look at Jiaojiao?"
After examining her, Yu Rujia said, "Sister-in-law Zhu's heatstroke is easy to treat, but she has a deep-seated resentment that she can't shake off. If this continues, her health will deteriorate rapidly. Even the best doctor can't cure someone who's stuck in a rut."
"You should give her more guidance and encouragement. Some things should be let go of. A good mindset is essential for good health."
