Ding Ermei and Zhou Bingxing returned to the ward with the compensation more than two hours later, by which time Ding Xiaocui had already passed away.
"Xiao Cui, why didn't you wait for me?" Zhou Bingxing cried as he looked at Ding Xiao Cui's wide-open eyes.
Liu Moli, listening in the corridor, kept grimacing.
In the last second before her death, Ding Xiaocui was still calling for Zhou Bingxing to take her home.
What about Zhou Bingxing? The mother and son were in such a hurry to make money that they completely disregarded Ding Xiaocui's wishes.
No wonder Ding Xiaocui died with her eyes wide open in dismay.
"Bingxing, stop crying. The dead can't be brought back to life. Let's get Xiaocui away quickly!" Ding Ermei advised.
Now that she had the money, Ding Ermei was afraid that Director Zhang might change his mind later. She couldn't wait to leave the hospital.
"Mom, when we get back, let's give Xiao Cui a grand funeral! Xiao Cui has been with me for so many years, but she hasn't had a single good day!" Zhou Bingxing thought of the jar of gold bars, and tears welled up in his eyes again.
These misfortunes were actually caused by a jar of gold bars.
Now, the gold bars are gone, and Xiao Cui is dead.
The past few days have made Zhou Bingxing feel like he's been in a dream.
“Your dad makes the decisions in our family. Ask him when you get home,” Ding Ermei said.
Ding Ermei's words were actually an excuse.
Although Ding Xiaocui is Ding Ermei's niece, Ding Xiaocui is already dead!
For Ding Ermei, the dead had no value anymore. A grand funeral would cost a lot of money, which Ding Ermei couldn't bear to spend.
"Okay, I'll go ask the hospital to borrow a stretcher, and we'll take Xiao Cui home." Zhou Bingxing wiped away his tears and went to work.
The mother and son carried the stretcher out of the hospital without asking for help.
"Mom, aren't we going back to the village? Where are you going?" Zhou Bingxing found it strange that Ding Ermei wasn't taking the road back to the village.
"Let's go to the police station," Ding Ermei said, head held high.
"Why go to the police station?" Zhou Bingxing was a little confused.
"We must seek justice. The police station's lockdown of the village delayed Xiao Cui's treatment. We can't just let this go," Ding Ermei said loudly.
Dean Zhang's weakness gave Ding Ermei other ideas.
Ding Ermei wanted to use the same trick again, using Ding Xiaocui's death to negotiate with Chief Jin.
Even if the police station doesn't pay compensation, it would be good if they could at least let Zhou Bingqiang go home!
"Mom, don't go, the police will arrest us." Zhou Bingxing was a little scared.
“Don’t be afraid, Bingxing. When we get to the police station, you hide to the side. I’ll handle it. If they want to arrest someone, they can arrest me. Remember to bring me food and bedding later,” Ding Ermei said confidently.
Ding Ermei had been arrested once before, but Xiao Geng didn't make things difficult for her.
Aside from being scammed out of money by Xiao Fang and his gang, Ding Ermei didn't think being detained was anything to be afraid of. As long as Zhou Bingxing remembered to bring her food, that was enough.
"Mom, didn't you just promise Director Zhang that this matter would end here? If we go to the police station to cause trouble, will Director Zhang make us return the money? Let's not go!" Zhou Bingxing still didn't want to go and racked his brains for reasons.
“I promised not to cause trouble at the hospital, I didn’t say anywhere else,” Ding Ermei said. “Bingxing, don’t be afraid. After we get to the police station, we’ll go to Zhao Qingshan’s house. If Zhao Qingshan hadn’t refused to help me take care of Jiaxiang and Hongyu today, I wouldn’t have left the hospital to take Hongyu back to the village. Zhao Qingshan also bears some responsibility for Xiaocui’s death.”
“Mom, if you do this, the third son and his wife might get divorced.” Zhou Bingxing was stunned by Ding Ermei’s “outrageous move”.
Ding Ermei is trying to take advantage of Ding Xiaocui's death to squeeze out every possible benefit!
Zhao Qingshan is not someone to be trifled with. And Zhao Zhenzhu is no pushover these days either.
Even if Zhou Bingxing was brainless, he knew that Ding Ermei's actions would definitely cause a rift between Zhao Zhenzhu and Zhou Bingchen.
"Bingchen and Zhao Zhenzhu can get a divorce if they want. Zhao Zhenzhu isn't a good person. Even if they're divorced, Bingchen is still my son, and I'll still give him my retirement money every month." Ding Ermei said righteously, "Bingxing, I'm doing this for you. You're still young, and you'll definitely need to get married in the future. With two children to raise, who would marry you if you didn't have money?"
Zhou Bingxing fell silent.
Ding Ermei's words struck a chord with Zhou Bingxing.
Xiao Cui is dead. He's a grown man. He can't possibly stay single for the rest of his life just because of Xiao Cui, can he?
When Ding Ermei and her group arrived at the police station, Chief Jin had just returned from Tao Jiadong's place.
When Chief Jin heard the gatekeeper, Old Dong, say that someone was carrying a corpse and causing trouble at the police station entrance, he thought he had misheard.
"Old Dong, you're not mistaken, are you? This is a police station, not some other place," Chief Jin asked.
"You read that right, it's Ding Ermei, who was arrested last time, with her daughter-in-law's body! There's already a lot of people watching. Chief Jin, you need to go out and deal with this quickly, I'm afraid there will be even more people watching later." Old Dong was a little anxious.
"Let's go!" Chief Jin picked up the hat from the table, put it on his head, and hurried towards the door.
At the entrance of the police station.
A stretcher was placed on the ground, and on the stretcher was a woman with a pale, ashen face.
Ding Ermei sat on the ground, slapping her thigh and wailing, "My poor Xiao Cui, she was only thirty this year! In the prime of her youth, her treatment was delayed because the police sealed off the village. She's dead, what will happen to her two children?"
"Xiao Cui is dead, I don't want to live anymore!"
"God! Open your eyes and look at my poor family!"
Ding Ermei's cries were melodious and varied, with a distinct tune.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted people from the surrounding area to come and see what was going on.
