Several people rushed the old woman to the hospital overnight. It turned out that the old woman had acute appendicitis due to catching a cold and needed surgery immediately. Zhuanghan was forced to follow Yan Changge around, forced to pay the medical bills for "his own mother", and forced to stay outside the operating room and take care of the old woman after the surgery.
Yan Changge was a good man who helped (monitored) the strong man to take care of the old woman. The man who was implicated in the car had already proven his innocence and did not need to go to the hospital with him. But he did not know whether he was free or not, but he followed him. His beautiful eyes swept over the wrinkled face of the strong man, and the smile in his eyes could not hide his happiness.
While waiting for the old woman to have surgery, Yan Changge patted the strong man on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Although this old woman is not your biological mother, she gave birth to you and raised you. Even if we just met by chance, it is fate. You can see from her face that you are not destined to have a close relationship with her. Now that you have someone like her to support you, it is a good thing. After she recovers, you must take good care of her."
Listening to Yan Changge's words, Zhuanghan looked more and more like he wanted to die. Finally, when he heard that he still had to take care of the old lady after being discharged from the hospital, Zhuanghan couldn't help it. He knelt down in front of Yan Changge outside the operation room and cried loudly: "Brother, I have already paid for the medical expenses, please let me go! I am just a scammer. I didn't get the money and I lost my wife's money. Please, let me go!"
"Shut up!" Yan Changge frowned slightly, and stood on tiptoe. He didn't know how he did it, but at least the 150-pound man stood up from the ground involuntarily by his tiptoe. "There are patients here, don't speak loudly."
Even if you are not an expert, you can guess that this man has practiced this move. The strong man was frightened and shut up immediately.
Yan Changge glanced at the door of the operating room, thinking secretly about the fate of the old woman he had just seen. The old woman was obviously a poor, lonely and helpless person, but she had a long life. With such a fate, a long life is not a good thing, but a life of suffering.
As an ancient sword that has existed for thousands of years, Yan Changge's knowledge is unmatched by ordinary people. In the past thousands of years, he has seen emperors with great strategies, generals who use troops like gods, martial arts masters, scheming masters, hermits who live a carefree life... In these thousands of years, he has seen everything and learned everything unconsciously. The greatest experience brought to him by thousands of years of experience is "my fate is determined by myself, not by God."
Some people are destined to fail, but they can survive; some people are born rich, but end up penniless. Fate is given by heaven, but the road is made by oneself. There was once a hermit who commented on the face of the deceased in this way: no matter what kind of "lonely star" he is, there is always a ray of hope around him. Maybe he met a noble person, or maybe the feng shui of his ancestral tomb is good. Even more outrageous, even a disfigured face can become a way to fight poison with poison.
There is always a way out. How you choose to walk this path depends on yourself.
Whether the old woman died in suffering and humiliation in the world, or lived out her old age in peace, all depended on one thought.
Similarly, for this strong man in front of him, whether to spend the rest of his life without any relatives or to have a happy family is all up to him.
Yan Changge decided to do this "thought".
He whispered, "I remember you just said to this..."
Yan Changge paused when he said this and glanced at the man driving the car.
The man in the car was so bored that he leaned against the wall to watch the show and eavesdropped on their conversation. Seeing Yan Changge looking at him, the man in the car raised his lips and introduced himself: "Qu Lian, you can call me Second Young Master."
Yan Changge retracted his gaze and continued, "When you sought justice from this Brother Qu, you kept calling her 'Mom'. If this old woman is not your adoptive mother, why are you so excited? What does it have to do with you? Although I don't understand the law, I also know that if you defraud money, you will probably go to jail."
Strong man: "..."
Seeing the man's face, which looked uglier than crying, Qu Lian finally let out the anger he had just felt from being scammed. He nodded and said, "I'll ask my lawyer about this situation."
Strong man: "..."
"Of course, if this old woman is really your mother, then it is understandable that you love her so much, isn't it?" Qu Lian's smile was brilliant, but Zhuang Han saw a hint of malice in it.
Zhuang Han: "...Fuck it, I admit it, I admit it, okay?"
Yan Changge nodded with satisfaction and said, "Remember to find a good job and take good care of the old man. I live near the alley and will visit him often."
It was a lie when she lived near the alley, but it was the truth when she visited frequently. If this strong man obeyed her in public but disobeyed her in private, and then abused the old woman, the good deeds would turn into bad debts.
Strong man: "..."
After saying this, a thread of merit floated onto Yan Changge.
However, this is not the merit of the old woman and the strong man. After sending the old woman to the hospital, the merit of saving lives has gone to Yan Changge. As for the merit of helping these two liars turn over a new leaf, that still depends on the outcome of subsequent events.
This little bit of merit came from Qu Lian.
Yan Changge couldn't help but turn his head and look at Qu Lian.
Merit is a very strange thing. Whether a person's actions are good or not cannot be judged by the surface alone, but also by the consequences and impacts of the event. Heaven will make its own judgment. For example, in the past, heroes acted bravely, punished tyrants, saved innocent people, left countless deeds, and gained a reputation that people admired. However, in Heaven, they are probably guilty of many sins and will be reborn as animals after death, and will not be able to be reborn as humans in the next life.
He saved a commoner girl who was robbed by a wicked young man, and then he killed the young man and walked away. The crime of murder fell on the poor commoner girl. Being taken over by a wicked young man, the worst thing that can happen to her is that she becomes a maid, but she will be charged with murder and will not only be imprisoned, but her whole family may also be exiled. The reputation of a hero is taken away by the "hero", but the evil consequences have to be borne by the victim. How can this be considered a merit?
Merits are judged by heaven, but there is another kind of merit, which comes from people's sincere gratitude.
Although he didn't know much about the affairs of this society, Yan Changge could still see that the fraud of this strong man had no effect on people like Qu Lian. From the time Qu Lian got off the car to the time he negotiated compensation with the strong man, he smiled contemptuously the whole time. Even if he didn't come forward to prove Qu Lian's innocence, he could solve it himself, which couldn't be considered a merit.
If Heaven does not take it into account, then all that can be expressed is Qu Lian's sincere gratitude.
Why would Qu Lian thank him for doing good deeds?
Yan Changge looked towards Qu Lian, gazing at the pair of peach blossom eyes that were tinged with charm by her smile.
Seeing Yan Changge looking at him, Qu Lian's smile became even brighter. He approached Yan Changge and whispered, "I really want to thank you. Thank you for letting me see such a good show today."
What can he do? He can find a lawyer to convict Zhuang Han, but the amount of fraud is not much, and the nature is not serious. At most, he can be sentenced to imprisonment, which is not satisfying. But now this... this big brother who looks bad is much smarter than him. He puts the blame of the old lady on Zhuang Han. This method is more cruel than paying the money and then suing Zhuang Han.
Everyone in Lincheng knew that the Second Young Master Lian was vindictive and petty. Anyone who offended him would be punished by him and unable to survive in Lincheng.
Warm breath blew on Yan Changge's square ears, and Qu Lian continued: "Your trick is really a good one. I'll give you another suggestion. In fact, you don't have to visit them all the time. You just need to leave your contact information to the old lady and tell her that if her son treats her badly, you will come to help her vent her anger. How about it?"
This is a good idea, Yan Changge nodded secretly. Qu Lian looked a little frivolous, but unexpectedly he had a good heart. It is true that you cannot judge a person by his appearance. Unfortunately...
"I have no fixed place to stay, so how can I have any fixed way of contacting him?" Yan Changge shook his head. "Besides, the old man needs to have surgery, and he needs to be cut open. I don't know how long it will take for him to recover. I have to stay and help him take care of him."
Qu Lian: “…”
"How long does an appendicitis surgery take? He was discharged from the hospital in a week. How can you not take care of him when he's that old?" Qu Lian gritted his teeth and said, "Are you serious? Are you really thinking about them?"
"Of course." Yan Changge said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the aura of merit that was originally floating around him quickly return to Qu Lian.
Yan Changge: “…”
Human nature is complicated. Even after thousands of years, he still cannot see through people's hearts.
Coincidentally, at this moment Qu Lian and Yan Changge had the same idea.
As the lights went out during the operation, Qu Lian clapped his hands and said, "You really can't judge a person by his appearance. You look so...impressive, but I didn't expect you to be such a good person."
While he was speaking, the old woman was pushed out, and Yan Changge's attention was drawn to her. He did not pay attention to his meaningless words and completely ignored the Second Young Master Lian.
Qu Lian: “…”
Yan Changge was seen helping the doctor to support the old lady with a cautious look. He really didn't feel like watching the show anymore, so he turned around and left. Anyway, no matter what the good man's purpose was, the scammer definitely didn't have his kindness, and he and the old lady would torture each other.
The assistant Zhuanghan took care of the old woman all night. Because of the effect of the anesthetic, the old lady slept all night and woke up the next morning. She saw Yan Changge sitting next to her and was so scared that she almost broke down.
“Big brother, big brother,” the old woman cried, “I didn’t lie under your car on purpose. I, I, I, I…it was this Lai San who forced me to do it. If you want to find someone, go find him. I’m an old lady, and I was also forced to do it. Wuwuwu…”
When Qu Lian got off the car, the old man was in so much pain that he couldn't see who was who. He obviously mistook Yan Changge for the owner of the car.
"Fuck!" Lai San got angry when he heard the old lady shirking her responsibility. He went up to her and grabbed her hospital gown and yelled, "Who the hell took the initiative to find me as a partner before? We agreed that two plus one would make five, but every time you tried to cheat me out of some extra money and hid it from me. You old bastard, now you're giving it back to me..."
"Someone is being murdered!" The old lady was afraid of Yan Changge but not Lai San. When she saw Lai San taking action, she immediately cried, "Someone is trying to beat me to death. Oh, my wound hurts so much..."
Yan Changge: "Shut up."
The two of them immediately covered their mouths tightly and dared not say another word.
The author has something to say:
Mini-drama 1:
Yan Changge: My ambition is to be a kind-hearted person who punishes evil and eliminates evil.
Lai San: Brother, do you want some water?
Old lady: Big brother, do you want a leg massage?
Qu Lian: I think you are more suitable to be a gangster boss...
