Along the way, Pan Di stopped crying. She just lay on the ox cart, staring at the sky in a daze.
It was already noon when Li Qingyun arrived at the commune clinic. She went straight to the Jianshe Restaurant and bought six white flour buns and three bowls of vegetable soup.
Give some cushion to the cyclist and my sister.
Pan Di ate voraciously, as if she hadn't eaten for more than ten days. Li Qingyun gave her one of her steamed buns. After she ate three, she was not allowed to eat any more. Eating too much suddenly was not good for the stomach.
The rickshaw driver felt embarrassed for eating her white flour buns, so he agreed to wait until they finished seeing the doctor and then send them home.
In fact, he had heard about the young wife's affairs, but he didn't expect her to be beaten so badly.
At the same time, she also looked up to Li Qingyun. As an older sister, she was very responsible.
The doctor at the clinic checked the wounds on Pan Di's body and couldn't help cursing. Who could be so cruel to beat someone like this?
The injuries on the face were minor, there were many needle marks and bruises on the arms, the legs looked like they were hit by a belt, and there was a fracture, which was a new injury, probably caused last night.
Pan Di cooperated with the doctor without saying a word throughout the whole process.
"Sister, these minor injuries can be treated, but this fracture, I'm afraid we can't handle it here, you should go to the county to get it checked out.
Also, if you need to report it to the police, you'd better take this girl there to file a case so you can explain it later." The doctor at the clinic seemed to have guessed something from seeing Li Qingyun's anger and gave a sincere suggestion.
Nowadays, there are many cases of couples fighting or family members bullying their wives, but few people take them seriously.
There are even fewer people like Li Qingyun who bring their sister to see a doctor. Everyone keeps their family disgrace to themselves and endures it on their own. If they can't endure it, they just bury it in the earth.
Men are afraid of choosing the wrong career, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man!
His words reminded Li Qingyun. She thanked him and carried Pan Di on her back and walked out.
We decided to borrow a handlebar-type ox cart and head to the county town.
After walking for two hours, we finally arrived at the county town.
She first took Zhaodi to the county police station to report the case, stating her home address and situation, and then lifted up the needle bruises on Pandi's body and the scars on her legs to show them to them.
Several grown men were filled with righteous indignation and said they would definitely seek justice for them.
A public security comrade also personally took them to the hospital for injury examination and treatment.
The doctor also issued an injury report, stating that these scars were man-made and were caused by him, not self-abuse.
Next came the treatment. Li Qingyun had some money with her, and with the two hundred and fifty yuan she had just asked the Li family for in the morning, the medical expenses were enough.
A total of eighty-six yuan was paid, and she kept the invoice. The Han family had to pay back the money.
The doctor straightened the bone and fixed it and tied it up. There is no need to put it in a cast yet, so you need to take good care of it and not let it dislocate again.
I was also prescribed topical compresses and anti-inflammatory medication for the other injuries. I was asked to come back for a follow-up checkup in a month.
She secretly took note of the doctor's instructions.
We found a restaurant in the county town, each of us had a bowl of shredded pork noodles, and then prepared to go home.
Pan Di said the meat was delicious and she hadn't tasted meat for a long, long time. In the end, she even licked the bowl clean. Li Qingyun couldn't bear to watch.
When Li Qingyun first went to the county town in the 1960s, she had neither the mood nor the time to lie.
There is a sick patient and two hungry children at home, and now there is another sick patient.
She couldn't wait to go home.
I asked the driver to take them home for an extra dollar.
The rickshaw driver was happy to accept it. He considered this dollar his own private money and did not need to give it to the village.
Along the way, Pan Di was very nervous. She thought her sister would send her back to her parents' home.
As a result, my sister actually wanted to take me back to her in-laws' home.
Although my sister has separated from the family and lives on her own without the supervision of her parents-in-law, will my brother-in-law really not be angry?
The sisters chatted along the way and she already knew that her brother-in-law was also injured and recuperating at home.
"Sister, why don't you send me back to Lijia Village? You have to take care of your brother-in-law, and I'm afraid..." it will make things difficult for you.
"Pandi, do you still have any expectations of the Li family? Not to mention if you return injured like this, even if you return healthy, they won't take you in, let alone now."
Li Qingyun knew that she was used to being submissive, and thought of slowly changing her mind in the future. However, she was still full of illusions about her family, which was not good, so she directly broke her illusions and made her face the blood.
"If they had a little consideration for you, they wouldn't have asked you to take money home to feed them and entertain them even though they saw you in such a mess.
Listen to me, we will stand on our own two feet from now on. We don’t have to be afraid of anyone, and we can live well without relying on anyone.”
"But..." She understood everything, she just didn't want to embarrass her sister.
It was already dark when I got home.
From afar, a tall figure was waiting at the door, pulling a small person.
I saw a bullock cart coming from afar.
Dabao let go of his father's hand and rushed over.
"Mom, you're back. Dad and I have been waiting for you all afternoon. You said you would be back at noon. You lied to me." Dabao complained.
As the oxcart approached, the man limped over.
"Back? What is this?"
He looked at her with a smile, without blaming her, but just a little puzzled about the bruised woman in the car.
Pan Di called out embarrassedly: "Brother-in-law, I'm Pan Di, sorry to bother you."
Li Qingyun got out of the car, paid the fare, and carried Pan Di on his back and walked inside.
Dabao followed with a basket.
