But no matter how Zheng Wangshu persuaded her, Yang Xiaohua still insisted on spending more time working for Zheng Wangshu. Before Zheng Wangshu could persuade her earnestly, something happened to Yang's mother.
At noon, when several people were reviewing their homework in the dormitory, a classmate suddenly ran over with an anxious look on his face, "Xiaohua, go to the cafeteria quickly! Your mother has been beaten!"
Upon hearing that Yang's mother was beaten, Zheng Wangshu put on his shoes and followed without saying a word. Chen Wenwen and the other three followed closely behind.
When they arrived at the scene and saw the tragic state of Yang's mother with blood all over her head, not only Yang Xiaohua was angry, but Zheng Wangshu was also angry.
Yang Xiaohua knew that the school was making an exception to allow her to bring her mother to school, so she didn't want to make things difficult for the school leaders. She usually locked her mother in a small room for fear that she would get into trouble.
But now the lock on the door was broken, and Yang's mother sat on the ground with a dazed look on her face, her forehead covered in blood.
"mother."
Hearing Yang Xiaohua's voice, Yang's mother immediately turned her head and looked at Yang Xiaohua with a wronged face, "Hua, Shitou, hit me, it hurts."
"It's okay, Mom. Xiaohua is here. Xiaohua won't let you be bullied again."
With tears in her eyes, Yang Xiaohua tried hard to force a smile and held her mother in her arms, carefully comforting her. This scene made Zheng Wangshu and the others feel a little sad.
Zheng Wangshu looked around and found that the small house was not far behind the cafeteria. Although it was not a main road, it could be used as a shortcut to the library.
There aren't many people passing by normally, but there are some, so maybe someone saw the murderer.
Thinking of this, Zheng Wangshu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If only there was surveillance, it would be much easier to investigate.
However, even without surveillance, Zheng Wangshu still had a way to find the murderer.
She waved to Chen Wenwen and the other two, then told them her plan. Gao Yujuan and Wang Zhaodi thought it made sense and nodded immediately.
"Let's split up. I'll accompany Xiaohua to take Aunt Yang to the infirmary, and you two will go find the witness."
With Yang Xiaohua's comfort, Yang's mother quickly calmed down. She carefully helped Yang's mother sit down and was about to fetch some water when she saw a clean handkerchief handed to her.
Yang Xiaohua looked up and saw Zheng Wangshu's smiling face. She felt her nose suddenly sore for some reason.
"See if the water temperature is right."
Zheng Wangshu gave Yang Xiaohua a soothing look.
Soon Yang Xiaohua wiped all the blood off Yang's mother's face, and all the wounds were exposed. There were three or four cuts on her forehead, but her face was not injured, which was a blessing in disguise.
The cut on the forehead wasn't big, but it wasn't small either.
"Come on, let's go to the infirmary."
Zheng Wangshu frowned. Yang Xiaohua said nothing and silently helped Yang's mother stand up.
Although Yang's mother had lived in the school for some time, it was her first time to go out for a walk. She looked around curiously, her face full of excitement, and Yang Xiaohua felt even more uncomfortable watching her.
By the time they returned to the cabin after treating the wound, an hour had passed. Mother Yang was tired and fell asleep soon after lying on the bed. Yang Xiaohua and Zheng Wangshu tiptoed out.
"How are you going to deal with this matter next?"
Zheng Wangshu looked at Yang Xiaohua.
Yang Xiaohua gave a bitter smile. "What can we do? Wangshu, let's not even talk about whether we can find the person who did it. Even if we do, what can we do? I can't stay by my mother's side all the time. If I really want to do it, I will always find an opportunity."
"Wangshu, how about I..."
Yang Xiaohua looked at Zheng Wangshu, hesitant to speak. Zheng Wangshu's face suddenly darkened. "Xiaohua, there are some things I want you to think carefully before you speak. I will only give you one chance."
Perhaps she didn't expect Zheng Wangshu's attitude to be so tough, Yang Xiaohua was shocked. She bit her lip and still couldn't say those words.
Zheng Wangshu could understand Yang Xiaohua's thoughts. She felt that Yang's mother was bullied because someone was jealous of her earning 30 yuan a month. She thought that everything would be fine if she quit her job.
"I've already asked Wenwen and the others to find witnesses. We'll discuss the next steps after we find the murderer."
Zheng Wangshu softened his tone, but he couldn't blame Yang Xiaohua.
Her father died early, and there was no one to support them. She must have suffered a lot of bullying in the countryside over the years. Moreover, Yang Xiaohua would have to take her mother to live in the school in the future, so the best thing to do when encountering problems is to keep quiet.
But now that Yang Xiaohua works for her, she is hers, and she will never allow anyone to bully Yang Xiaohua!
