Chapter 282 Payment
Li Xiaomiao knew something was going to happen and wanted to inform his daughter Liu Xiuxiu. He called her several times but failed to get through. After two days, he could no longer sit still and took his youngest son Liu Bao with him and boarded the train to Han City.
This matter became a big deal and could not be concealed from Li's parents. After knowing about it, Li's parents came to find trouble with Li Damiao without asking whether he was right or wrong. Li Damiao had no contact with this biased pair of parents for a long time, and had no intention of inviting people into the house even if they came. Li's parents were so angry that they started scolding at the door.
Rural people curse without restraint and their words are very unpleasant. People around them gradually gathered around, but Sister Bing had been married for so many years and her son was about to get married. Who wouldn't know each other? No one really believed what Li's parents said and felt that Liu Xiuxiu's behavior was shameful.
At first, they tried to persuade the elderly couple to stop their behavior, but after being scolded, everyone dispersed and ignored them. The elderly couple were tired of scolding and ignored them, so they could only run back home, but they could not get rid of the resentment in their hearts.
Li Damiao's parents-in-law were still working in the fields. When they heard Li's parents coming to their door to scold them, they were very angry. They didn't go to their house, but instead let these two people come to their door to cause trouble. They didn't care about these things anymore. They dropped their hoes and hurried back. But they were still a step too late. The two had already left.
After entering the house and seeing Li Damiao at home, she asked what happened. Li Damiao told her the truth and asked her parents-in-law not to be angry: "It's okay, it's just a joke. It depends on whether Liu Mei can do it this time. Like Liu Mei said, if she does well in her grades, she can take the exam again next year, but her Liu Xiuxiu is not so lucky."
Although he said that, Li Damiao was still worried because it had not been implemented.
And here at school.
The real Liu Mei made such a fuss that the school had to take it seriously. After two days of investigation and verification with the local authorities, they discovered that the fake Liu Mei, Liu Xiuxiu, was indeed the real Liu Mei. However, the fake Liu Mei couldn't give the real Liu Mei the spot. Liu Mei knew this and told the principal, "I've always had good grades. If I can't pass this year, I'm sure I can pass next year."
The matter was settled before Li Xiaomiao and Liu Bao even arrived at the school. Liu Mei was sent to the hospital due to miscarriage and never appeared in the school again.
But Li Xiaomiao was unaware of the situation and went straight to the school. There had been a lot of rumors going around in the school these days. Li Xiaomiao asked at the door and was surprised to find out that these people were talking about her Liu Xiuxiu. After finding out which hospital it was, she rushed to the hospital.
Li Xiaomiao was very nervous. If this was true, then who was the father of the child and why was the child gone? There were so many questions in her mind, but the first thing she had to figure out was whether the Liu Mei they were talking about was her child, Liu Xiuxiu.
Li Xiaomiao looked nervous all the way. Although Liu Bao was spoiled by Li Xiaomiao, he could also understand her expression. He knew that Li Xiaomiao was very annoyed at the moment, so he didn't want to mention that he was hungry. After finally arriving at the hospital after a difficult journey, Li Xiaomiao found out that Liu Mei's (Liu Xiuxiu) ward was on the 3rd floor, so she hurried upstairs and walked into the ward in a hurry.
Nowadays, the wards are very large and there are many people living in them. After searching for a while, Li Xiaomiao finally found her daughter Liu Xiuxiu in front of the innermost ward.
At this time, Liu Xiuxiu (using her original name) was daydreaming, thinking about what she should do next. Her luggage had been delivered by the school this morning, and she was informed that she had been expelled and the baby in her belly was gone. Should she go to Teacher Zhang to ask what to do next? Anyway, she couldn't go back to the village. She had already seen the big city, so how could she want to go back to the village where she worked hard every day and find a man to marry her?
While Liu Xiuxiu was thinking about something, she turned her head and her eyes met Li Xiaomiao's. She shouted in surprise: "Mom, why are you here?"
Just as Liu Xiuxiu was about to stand up, she was slapped by her mother in a rage. She then lay down again. Before Liu Xiuxiu could say anything, Li Xiaomiao scolded her, "You stupid girl, I asked you to study, not to find a man. How old are you, and you've already gotten pregnant?"
Li Xiaomiao was used to having a loud voice, and without caring where they were, she started to lecture Liu Xiuxiu. Liu Xiuxiu looked around and saw that everyone had stopped walking, talking, and working, all staring at her. Liu Xiuxiu couldn't stand such a look and shouted at Li Xiaomiao, "Mom, do you still have any shame?"
Li Xiaomiao didn't stop slapping him, and slapped him a few more times, cursing: "You still want to save face, but you still got pregnant with another man." "Yes, I have no shame, beat me to death."
The noise attracted the nurse outside, who said to them, "This is a hospital. If you want to fight, go outside and fight. Otherwise, I'll ask security to take you out."
Li Xiaomiao stopped then, not because she was afraid of the security guard as the nurse said, but because she was tired.
This side stopped, and the people next to him started doing their own things. Li Xiaomiao simply pulled the stool next to him, sat down with his butt, and asked, "I asked you to come to study, what have you done?"
"I don't want to either." Liu Xiuxiu was speechless. She didn't dare to tell anyone about the school dormitory, but she certainly couldn't hide what happened to Teacher Zhang.
Li Xiaomiao was even more annoyed by Liu Xiuxiu's attitude. "Where is this child? Whose child is it?"
Liu Xiuxiu said irritably, "What child? Liu Mei pushed me and I had a miscarriage. Otherwise, why would I stay in this hospital?"
Li Xiaomiao said excitedly, "Then this matter is over. That man slept in vain."
Liu Xiuxiu was a little annoyed by Li Xiaomiao's direct words. She could have been discharged today, but she had nowhere to go. Now that her mother had made her stay, she didn't want to stay any longer. She packed up her things and immediately walked south. Li Xiaomiao followed behind and kept nagging, but Liu Xiuxiu didn't listen. When she was about to lose her temper, the three of them were stopped by the nurse, "You're leaving like this? Pay the bill."
"Didn't you pay it to the school?" Liu Xiuxiu asked.
"No." After saying that, the nurse handed Liu Xiuxiu a receipt: "Here, take this receipt and pay the bill over there."
Before Liu Xiuxiu could take it, Li Xiaomiao snatched it away. After looking at the amount on it, she shouted, "You are robbing me. You are charging me 5 yuan for just a few days of hospitalization." They didn't earn much in a year in the countryside, and they were charged so much for just a few days of hospitalization. The hospital must have wanted to charge them more money because they were orphans and widows.
