Su Yue nodded, "I think so, but she paid a heavy price. She hurt someone during this special period, and she's a soldier, so going to jail is unavoidable."
Fu Shen said that no matter what, Pan Danu would go to jail.
Wang Jingyi sighed heavily again: "Who says it isn't true?"
After Da Ya and her three younger sisters finished using the restroom, Su Yue and Wang Jingyi led them toward the Dongkou Village dock.
On the way to Dongkou Village, Daya insisted on carrying Siya on her back. Even though she was sweating profusely and her clothes were soaked through, she still refused to hand Siya over to Wang Jingyi.
Later, Wang Jingyi said anxiously, "I'll carry it so we can walk faster, otherwise we'll miss the first boat."
Daya was slightly taken aback, then decisively handed Siya to Wang Jingyi.
"..." Su Yue watched them the whole time.
When they arrived at the dock, they almost missed their boat, but luckily someone on board had sharp eyes and told the boatman to wait.
Once on the boat, Su Yue paid the fare and noticed that Wang Jingyi was gently rubbing her lower back.
Her eyes showed concern: "Does your back hurt?"
If she weren't pregnant, carrying Siya on her back wouldn't have been difficult at all.
Wang Jingyi forced a smile, "It's been many years since I've carried a child on my back for so long in one go. Plus, I'm getting old, and my back can't take it anymore."
At this moment, someone on the boat looked at them curiously and asked, "Where are you taking all these children?"
Wang Jingyi laughed and said, "Their father is sick. Yesterday, their grandmother and mother went to the hospital to take care of him. They probably didn't have a ride back last night, so the children didn't see their mother all night and asked us to take them to see her."
After hearing what Wang Jingyi said, everyone stopped asking questions and simply praised, "They are so lucky to have neighbors like you."
Wang Jingyi and Su Yue smiled politely but did not respond.
Upon arriving in town and disembarking, Er Ya held S Ya's small hand tightly, her steps slightly unsteady.
Having been with the military for so long, this must be their first time on a boat. They weren't used to it yet, and their legs felt weak and uncontrollable when they stepped on the ground.
As they walked, Siya's eyes suddenly lit up. She pointed ahead and called out in a clear voice, "Grandma..."
Er Ya reacted quickly and covered her mouth.
Su Yue and Wang Jingyi also saw Aunt Qiao. Da Ya looked nervous and whispered, "Hide, we can't let her see us."
Su Yue and Wang Jingyi, thinking of the two letters, tacitly pulled the children behind a wooden board.
Su Yue peeked through the gaps in the wooden planks and saw Aunt Qiao suddenly freeze in the crowd, then turn her head and look around. After looking around and not seeing anyone, she muttered to herself, "Why do I hear that little money-loser's voice?"
Yesterday, Qiao Honghai went to the county hospital, where the doctor examined the injured area.
No surgery is needed; it has already been determined that there is no chance of full recovery.
When Aunt Qiao heard this, it felt like the sky had fallen; her eldest grandson was gone.
Ignoring the doctor's attempts to stop her, she sat on the ground, crying and cursing Pan Danu.
Knowing the outcome, the two soldiers didn't delay any longer. They helped the mentally broken Aunt Qiao back to her ward, comforted her, and then planned to go home.
Just then, Qiao Honghai woke up, before Aunt Qiao could tell him that he would no longer be able to carry on the family line.
Qiao Honghai then told the two soldiers what he would do to Pan Daniu, saying he would definitely not let her go.
