After hearing the contents of the letter, Lu Ruoling suddenly recalled her childhood.
She was straightforward and said whatever she thought, without any hesitation or hesitation when talking about Li Fengyi.
"My cousin is not a good person. When I was 16, I went to his house with my mother. He tricked me into going to the woods and put his hands into my clothes. I pushed him away and ran away."
When Li Fengyi heard this, he became emotional. "He is such a scoundrel. He even dared to act like a hooligan to you. He should be sent to the public security bureau and arrested for reform."
Lu Shishen frowned and glanced at Li Fengyi, which made Li Fengyi feel guilty. He quickly explained, "Captain, I can't stand people like him."
Yang Niannian had long known that Ma Hao was not a good person, so it was not surprising at all that he could do such a thing to Lu Ruoling.
"People like Ma Hao should be sent to the palace to be eunuchs."
He looked at Lu Ruoling again, "Didn't you tell your family about this?"
Lu Ruoling answered truthfully, "I told my mother, but she told me not to tell anyone, saying it was shameful and that if I told anyone, I would never be able to find a husband."
Li Fengyi couldn't help but continue, "Why is your mother like this? She doesn't let you tell anyone when someone bullies you. What if she bullies you again?"
The more Lu Shishen listened, the gloomier his expression became. When he was young, he joined the army and had little contact with his family, so he didn't know many things.
The last time I beat Ma Hao, I didn’t go easy on him.
Yang Niannian glanced at Lu Shishen, and seeing that he looked unhappy, she quickly announced a piece of news that was pleasing to everyone.
"Ma Hao is now getting his comeuppance. My mother-in-law wrote to me and said that if he doesn't raise enough money to transfer to a large hospital in Beijing for treatment, he may never be able to be a father again."
Li Fengyi clapped his hands and said, "It's what he deserves."
Yang Niannian handed the letter to Lu Shishen, "Oh, mother-in-law has written so many letters. It would be bad if we don't call her back to show our concern. Shall I call back and ask about the situation?"
There is a good show, but it would be too boring to just read it in the letter.
Seeing that she was very excited, Lu Shishen saw through her thoughts and said, "Dress warmly."
Yang Niannian put on her military coat and walked out, "Then I'll go."
Lu Ruoling chased after him, "Second sister-in-law, I'll go with you."
"Let's go!"
Yang Niannian took Lu Ruoling to the telephone booth outside the hospital and dialed the village number. Within a few minutes, the village chief called Ma Xiuzhu over.
Ma Xiuzhu yelled as soon as she picked up the phone, "Did you two not receive the letter or what? It's been almost a month, why are you calling me only now?"
Yang Niannian replied calmly, "Shi Shen was quite busy and was not at home during this period. I went to Beijing to study and just came back."
Ma Xiuzhu calmed down a little. Her daughter had previously called home to tell them about her younger daughter-in-law's admission to university, and she had been showing off in the village for quite some time.
"You all know about Ma Hao's case, right? Quickly ask Shi Shen to call the police station and arrest the person who injured Ma Hao. It would be best if he were shot."
Yang Niannian, "You should take care of your son! Shi Shen was injured during the mission and is half dead. He is lying in the hospital unable to move. How can he have the energy to care about those things? Besides, this is a society ruled by law, and he doesn't have that much power."
Ma Xiuzhu was frightened. The most capable people in the family were her youngest son and his wife. If something happened to her youngest son, she and Lu Guozhi would have no one to take care of them in their old age, and her daughter-in-law would have to remarry.
The sky has fallen on our family.
Ma Xiuzhu was really worried. "How could he be injured so badly? You should be considerate of your man. Tell him not to run so fast if there is any danger. Let others rush ahead..."
Yang Niannian just wanted to scare Ma Xiuzhu, and she achieved her goal while also comforting her.
"Now that the critical period has passed, we just need to take good care of ourselves for a while. How is Ma Hao now?"
Ma Xiuzhu had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when she heard Yang Niannian ask this, she began to feel sorry for her nephew again.
"Ma Hao has been through a lot this time. That bastard kicked him in the crotch on purpose. Now the doctors in the city say that if we want to get better treatment, we have to prepare at least 1,000 yuan to go to Beijing for treatment."
"Your uncle's family can't even come up with that much money even if they sell everything they have. He just got married and this bad thing happened to him. How is he going to live in the future?"
Yang Niannian almost laughed out loud, and deliberately said something sarcastic, "I think it's good, this way you don't have to have evil thoughts all day long, and there will be one less nuisance in the village."
Ma Xiuzhu was furious and wanted to get angry, but she didn't dare.
My younger daughter-in-law is becoming more and more capable, and my younger son also sides with her. It will not be good for me if they really fall out.
What's more, I still have something to ask my daughter-in-law.
She said confidently, "Ma Hao hasn't had a baby yet, so he has to pay for his illness. If you two can't help, then you can pay. I'll send you 1,000 yuan first, and I'll just consider it a loan to you two, and I'll pay you back later."
Ma Xiuzhu had her own plan in mind. She wanted the money first, and whether to use it to treat Ma Hao would be another matter.
Ma Hao needs one thousand for his medical treatment, and he just asks to borrow one thousand. Doesn't his uncle's family have to pay a penny?
Yang Niannian decisively refused, "My money will be useful if I keep it."
Ma Xiuzhu glared and asked unhappily, "You don't have a child now, what's the point of saving the money?"
Yang Niannian replied lightly, "I earned my own money, so I can spend it however I want."
Ma Xiuzhu was so angry that her chest hurt. "You didn't do anything and didn't pay. You called me just to piss me off, didn't you?"
"I just want to ask if Ma Hao has been cured. I'm relieved to hear that he hasn't been cured. Please talk to Ruoling!"
Yang Niannian gave the phone to Lu Ruoling.
Ma Xiuzhu almost couldn't catch her breath, and she just kept yelling at Lu Ruoling. Only when she felt better did she remember the important things.
"You've been gone for half a year, why don't you send me a penny? I've counted it for you. You've been paid four times, so send me 60 yuan."
Lu Ruoling glanced at Yang Niannian, mustered up the courage to say to the phone, "Mom, my money will be useful if you keep it."
Yang Niannian couldn't help but burst out laughing. Not to mention Ma Xiuzhu, she didn't expect that her honest sister-in-law could say such a thing.
Ma Xiuzhu was furious when she heard this and yelled into the phone, "You damn girl, you've become so powerful after running away, right?"
"I'm telling you, you haven't gotten married yet, so every penny you earn belongs to your family. If you don't send money back, I'll break your legs. Don't even think about coming back to this family. I don't want a daughter like you..."
Lu Ruoling's ears hurt from the noise, so she hung up the phone on impulse. She felt quiet but also a little scared.
"Second sister-in-law, our mother won't really come over and break my legs, right?"
Yang Niannian smiled and comforted, "Don't be afraid, your second brother is here, she wouldn't dare."
It’s a good thing that my sister-in-law has her own opinion now.
The two returned to the ward and the doctor had just left after his ward rounds. Lu Shishen was recovering quickly and the stitches could be removed tomorrow morning.
Yang Niannian looked around but didn't see Li Fengyi, so she couldn't help but ask, "Where is Li Fengyi?"
Lu Shishen: "I'm going back."
After that, he looked at Lu Ruoling again, "You go back too, your second sister-in-law can stay here."
Lu Ruoling didn't dare to disobey her second brother's wishes, so she picked up the rice bucket and said, "Then I'll bring you food at noon."
At noon, it was Jiang Yang who came in. The first thing he said when he entered the door was, "Master Qu has resigned."
