Chapter 30 Surveillance Video
Chen Baomei held the phone away.
After listening to him finish his rant and letting out some of his anger, he slowly said, "It bothers me that you don't come to pay the medical bills."
"Boss, I was pushed down the stairs by Chen Jiao. It's normal for your family to pay for the medical expenses. It won't take you much time to transfer the money. You don't want your eldest sister to pay for it, and you don't plan to pay her back, right?"
Shen Qin obviously felt guilty after Chen Baomei touched upon his true feelings.
It was Shen Ru who paid for Chen Baomei's hospitalization when she was sent here.
When he came, Wu Wenwan had already discussed with him that Chen Baomei's fall down the stairs was an accident and that Chen Baomei had to pay for the medical expenses herself.
So when the doctor urged him to pay the bill during hospitalization, he pretended not to hear. It was only when Shen Ru couldn't bear it anymore that she paid the money.
Last night, Wu Wenwan repeatedly warned him that the family was starting to feel nervous and that the two children should be prioritized. If the hospital asked him to pay, he should just wait.
If they don't take any action, Chen Baomei will have to find a solution on her own.
Who knew that Chen Baomei would actually call his unit or his leader.
If the boss of the company knew about this, how could he put his face down? Would he still want to be a good person in the company?
Chen Baomei took advantage of this point and did this on purpose.
Shen Qin transferred five thousand yuan with a frustrated look on his face, and told Chen Baomei that if she had any problems, she could call him first and not call his leader at every turn.
Chen Baomei said quietly, "If I can't reach you, I'll call your leader."
Shen Qin: “…”
The doctor said Chen Baomei would have to stay in the hospital for at least a week, and then see how she recovered before deciding whether she could return home. The hospitalization and medical expenses alone were estimated to be at least 10,000 yuan.
Wu Wenwan not only didn't get the money, but also had to pay more than 10,000 yuan. She must have been so angry that she wanted to vomit blood.
Just this afternoon, the couple brought Wu Hui and Shen Jiao to visit Chen Baomei. After Shen Qin took Shen Jiao to apologize to Chen Baomei, she brought up the issue of medical expenses.
Chen Baomei didn't respond, but just raised her hand, signaling them to let Chen Jiao go out first.
"I don't want to see her now. Just looking at her face gives me a chill."
In her previous life, she killed her granddaughter, and in this life, she pushed her down the stairs. She was so vicious at such a young age. Chen Baomei didn't want to see her at all.
"Old lady, she is your granddaughter! How can you say that about her?"
Wu Wenwan loves Wu Hui, but she loves her daughter Shen Jiao even more, who has a similar personality to her and knows how to protect her.
Seeing Chen Baomei talking about Chen Jiao like this, she was naturally unhappy.
Besides, Chen Jiao pushed Chen Baomei just to vent her anger, so she should protect Chen Jiao even more.
Chen Baomei's voice became cold, and her deep pupils stared at the mother and daughter.
"go out!"
Chen Jiao was frightened by Chen Baomei. She glared at Chen Baomei resentfully and hid in Wu Wenwan's arms.
"Mom is in a bad mood right now, you guys should go back first."
Shen Qin pushed Wu Wenwan, Shen Jiao and Wu Hui, mother and son, out.
"Take the children and wait for me outside. I want to say a few words to the old lady." Wu Wenwan winked at him, and Shen Qin knew what she was going to say.
His mother had just had an unpleasant argument with him this morning, and if he told her about this, it would probably make her even angrier.
So he took the two children out of the ward in silence.
Chen Baomei looked at Wu Wenwan coldly, waiting to see how loud she would fart.
Wu Wenwan straightened her expression. "Old lady, Jiaojiao is still a child, so it's inevitable that she's a little careless when she walks. If you had stood firmly at that time, you wouldn't have fallen down the stairs. So your fall was purely an accident. I don't think we should be the only ones to pay for the medical expenses."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Ru and Shen Yin's faces turned ugly.
Chen Baomei said indifferently, "Then what do you think we should do?"
"Logically, all five of us have signed the retirement agreement you gave us, and you yourself said you didn't need us to take care of you, or be responsible for anything related to you. However, as the younger generation, we are kindhearted, and seeing you suffer is something I can't get over. Here's what I'm thinking: you don't have to pay for your medical expenses; we'll cover them for you, and we can split the bill equally among the five families. How about that?"
If the money is shared equally, each family will only pay more than 2,000 yuan.
Chen Baomei was so angry that she laughed.
"Help me pay for it? You guys are so kind!"
Wu Wenwan was not stupid and immediately heard the sarcasm in Chen Baomei's tone.
"You said it yourself. If we don't spend our money, we won't spend yours either. It's already very kind of me to agree to split the medical expenses. As for the old lady's previous refusal to lend us tuition, even if we can't pay the medical expenses, others have no reason to blame us!"
Wu Wenwan spoke confidently and confidently.
Chen Baomei shook her head and said, "Youngest, show her the video you brought back."
"Video? What video?"
Wu Wenwan was a little confused.
Shen Yin walked forward angrily, opened her phone and placed it in front of Wu Wenwan.
The screen soon showed the scene of Chen Baomei falling down the stairs that day.
In the picture, Chen Baomei was walking in front, and Shen Jiao followed closely behind her. She raised her evil little face and suddenly pushed Chen Baomei with both hands.
She didn't shout "You old witch, you're looking for death" very loudly, but the surveillance camera still recorded it.
After Chen Baomei rolled down the stairs, Shen Qin screamed.
Wu Wenwan, who was following him, actually smiled happily after seeing Chen Baomei fall down the stairs. When Shen Qin turned around and asked her to call the emergency number, her expression suddenly changed, revealing the same anxious and worried expression as Shen Qin.
Shen Jiao did push Chen Baomei on purpose, but that was no longer the point.
The focus has shifted to the momentary happy and complacent smile that Wu Wenwan showed.
She didn't remember there was a surveillance camera at the stairwell of the restaurant, and she couldn't imagine that Chen Baomei would go to the trouble of copying the surveillance video because of a family conflict.
But she knew clearly that if this video got out, her reputation would be ruined.
Not only that, Shen Qin might also develop a rift with her.
No matter what, Chen Baomei is Shen Qin's biological mother. If Shen Qin knew that she hoped Chen Baomei would suffer harm, Shen Qin would definitely have a conflict with her.
Wu Wenwan didn't expect that her inability to control her expression for a moment would cause such a big hidden danger.
She said nothing and clicked to delete the video.
Seeing this, Shen Yin couldn't help but sneer, "Sister-in-law, you don't think it's okay if you delete the video, do you? I have a backup."
Wu Wenwan's face flushed instantly, and she said angrily, "We are a family. Sometimes there is no need to be so ugly. I have no shame, but do you have a face like that?"
This eldest daughter-in-law has her own logic and is very good at making excuses. Chen Baomei had experienced this in her previous life.
Talking about face with her? She's just an old woman, what face do she need?
It is said that family disgrace should not be made public, but she was not the one who did anything wrong, and if she told others about it, it would be embarrassing for the person who did it.
Chen Baomei calmly asked Chen Yin, "Does your sister-in-law work at the Women's Federation? Can this video be sent to the Women's Federation?"
