"Did Battalion Commander Wang bully you?"
As soon as Sun Xiuhua finished speaking, Zhu Cui burst into tears upon seeing her like this.
Neither of them said anything, so they asked her to sit down and Ye Zhaozhao poured her a cup of hot water.
"Have a glass of water."
Just as Zhu Cui picked up her water glass, the old woman rushed in. Without saying a word, she grabbed Ye Zhaozhao's hand and pulled her outside, saying...
"I heard you're a doctor. My daughter was pushed down by this vicious man. Please go and check on her."
Ye Zhaozhao disliked the old woman and shook off her hand.
“If you knock it down, go see a doctor. I’m not going.”
This old woman is unreasonable, and Ye Zhaozhao doesn't want to cause trouble.
When the old woman heard Ye Zhaozhao say that, she was worried about her daughter and immediately started cursing.
"Do you have no compassion at all? You're not fit to be a doctor?"
"No, I'm not worthy, I won't go."
Ye Zhaozhao just stared at her, and the old woman felt intimidated by her gaze, a chill running down her spine. She wanted to make a scene again, but Ye Zhaozhao ignored her.
Anyway, it's her daughter lying on the ground. If she can wait, then she's not afraid of her making a scene.
Sure enough, the old woman quickly ran back, intending to ask Wang Jinpeng to take her daughter to the hospital.
Wang Jinpeng was going to Ye Zhaozhao's house to pick up Zhu Cui. He knew how good his wife was to him. The old woman saw that he didn't care and called out anxiously.
"She's your own sister! How can you be so heartless as to abandon her?"
"When she argued with Zhu Cui, did she ever think that I was her younger brother?"
Wang Jinpeng picked up his daughter and left, leaving the old woman helpless.
They could only find two people to take Wang Caixia to the hospital; these two people were also forced to do so out of necessity.
The old woman said she would kill herself if they didn't help her, and that's how she got to the hospital.
When the old woman heard that Wang Caixia was seriously injured, she had no choice but to take out the money she had saved.
Wang Caixia's injury has cost her almost all of her savings.
The old woman knew that Wang Jinpeng and Zhu Cui were determined to abandon her and her daughter, and she planned to go back once her daughter recovered.
At Zhu Cui's house, Gu Yunduan saw Wang Jinpeng holding a child standing outside the door, worried that the child was cold.
He was then led into the guest room, and Wang Jinpeng thanked Gu Yunduan.
"Deputy Brigade Commander Gu, thank you."
“Battalion Commander Wang, we are soldiers, and we know better than outsiders how difficult it is for military wives.”
Gu Yunduan usually doesn't talk much to them, so Wang Jinpeng was already very shocked that she would say this to him.
She knew that Gu Yunduan was reminding her to live a good life with Zhu Cui.
Wang Jinpeng nodded.
"Deputy Brigade Commander Gu, I understand."
Seeing that Zhu Cui had calmed down, Sun Xiuhua and Ye Zhaozhao asked her what had happened that day.
However, the two knew that Zhu Cui was always kind-hearted, and that it was impossible to force her to take action.
These two must have done something to offend her.
"They want my job."
At first, when the old woman asked her daughter to sleep with her, Zhu Cui thought she meant well.
I agreed, but little did I know that her promise to help take care of my daughter was just a ploy to get me to give up my job to my sister-in-law.
This noon, Zhu Cui was planning to make dumplings for dinner when the old woman spoke to her.
"Zhu Cui, there's something I need to tell you."
"What's up?"
"Look at your sister-in-law, she's thirty-eight this year and still can't find a husband."
So, do you think your sister could work that job for a few days first?
"Once she finds a husband, we'll give this job back to you. Look how young she is."
"She needs someone to care for her, and you can't always take her to work, so you should stay home and take care of the child. Let Caixia handle the work."
Zhu Cui wasn't stupid. Once this job was given away, it would be difficult to get it back. The mother and daughter had already discussed it and were just waiting for Zhu Cui to give in.
“She can’t do my job, so I can leave Xiaoya at my mom’s house. She’ll take care of her.”
Zhu Cui refused, but after she refused, the old woman started playing the victim.
Even Wang Caixia said that she had seen a lot of cold looks from others in the countryside.
The two of them deliberately chose a time when Wang Jinpeng was not around to tell Zhu Cui how difficult life was.
Seeing that Zhu Cui was still unwilling to budge, Wang Caixia became anxious.
"Zhu Cui, all I want is to work for a few days and find a husband. That's all I wish for."
"If you won't help me, do you believe I'll make my brother divorce you?"
When the topic of divorce came up, Zhu Cui got angry, and as the argument escalated, the old woman naturally sided with her daughter.
They also said that if Zhu Cui didn't give up her job...
They told Wang Jinpeng to divorce her and take his granddaughter with him, so they could see if they could fight her for their daughter.
In her struggle, Zhu Cui pushed Wang Caixia to the ground.
Then, after seeing Wang Jinpeng return and give his daughter to her, he went to find Ye Zhaozhao.
She had intended to ask Zhu Cui for advice, but after hearing this, Sun Xiuhua gave Zhu Cui a thumbs up.
"You were right not to let him work."
When Ye Zhaozhao heard from Gu Yunduan that Wang Jinpeng had arrived, she pulled Sun Xiuhua outside.
When Wang Jinpeng saw Zhu Cui's red eyes, he felt very sorry for her. He asked the two of them to talk.
"Honey, I'm sorry to have troubled you. I've already told the soldiers in the family compound not to let two people in, and they won't be coming again."
"Come back with me. I won't let them come here anymore."
The two talked for more than two hours inside the house, and Zhu Cui knew it was the Lunar New Year.
Not wanting to disturb others, even though she was angry with Wang Jinpeng, she went back first.
After they returned, Ye Zhaozhao and Gu Yunduan continued preparing the New Year's Eve dinner.
In the evening, after the New Year's Eve dinner was prepared, the children went out to set off firecrackers first, and only after that did they sit down to eat.
