"Open your mouth, yes—ah—"
The young nurse started feeding Su Zhenzhu; for the past few days, this pretty young nurse had been feeding her.
For the first time in her life, Su Zhenzhu experienced what it felt like to be served by others.
She obediently opened her mouth, revealing the black hole in her front tooth.
"Where are your family members? Haven't you remembered them yet?" the nurse asked again.
Su Zhenzhu shook her head and said indistinctly, "I...have no family anymore."
The nurse's eyes showed even more sympathy when she heard her say that.
When she fell under the ambulance, the driver didn't see how she was hit; he was more focused on parking the car precisely on the slope.
Therefore, the driver felt that he had hit someone, and kept apologizing as soon as he got out of the car.
Su Zhenzhu then readily agreed.
Even the dean was alarmed.
However, a patient came forward to testify that he saw Su Zhenzhu rushing towards the ambulance.
Su Zhenzhu had no choice but to admit that she had broken her arm and was in so much pain that she was completely disoriented.
Finally, the hospital director intervened and a settlement was reached—free treatment, with neither party pursuing further liability.
After the meal, the nurse thoughtfully wiped her mouth: "Comrade Zhang Hongfan, the hospital will cover all your surgery fees, so you don't need to worry. And I've already taken care of your discharge paperwork. But, are you really sure you can be discharged like this? Staying a few more days won't hurt!"
Su Zhenzhu shook her head: "I've already caused you too much trouble!"
She used a pseudonym.
Hearing her say that, the young nurse admired her even more—she was truly a woman of noble character!
While Su Zhenzhu wasn't looking, she slipped a 100-yuan note into her pocket.
At that moment, a critically ill patient was brought in. His two severed legs were only connected by a little bit of skin and flesh, and his wails echoed throughout the orthopedic ward.
All the nurses, including the kind young nurse, ran over to her.
After the nurses left, Su Zhenzhu bent down and picked up a card that her coworker, who had just brought the patient, had dropped on the ground.
It's a work ID.
A strange smile appeared on Su Zhenzhu's face.
She reached into her pocket and saw that the nurse had slipped her a ten-yuan note. She smiled disdainfully.
Seeing that the nurses' station was empty, she immediately crept over there.
I emptied the pockets of every nurse's white coat that was hanging on the wall.
One hand is not very convenient, but the harvest is plentiful.
Well, after counting it, it totaled 215 yuan, plus some small change.
Today is payday—she overheard the nurses chatting.
She placed the work ID on the floor of the nurses' station.
It's not very noticeable, but it's a place you'll definitely see when you're cleaning.
The police should be easy to spot.
Sorry, poor guy who lost his work ID!
With a large sum of money in her pocket, Su Zhenzhu left the hospital and went straight to the educated youth office.
When Officer Zheng saw her empty right sleeve, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets: "Su family's eldest daughter, you...you're too ruthless! You'd do something like this just to avoid going to the countryside?"
"So, Su Yin really did sign me up for the rural assignment, is that right?" Su Zhenzhu sneered.
“It’s not Su Yin, it’s…” Officer Zheng hesitated for a moment, “As you know, our policy is to only allow one child to stay with you. According to the policy, the one staying in your family is the fourth child, Su Tong. You, Su Jin, Su Yin, and Su Ruyi will all be sent to the countryside.”
"What was left behind was copper? How come it's different from what I dreamed about?!"
Su Zhenzhu muttered to herself, "So, it was Su Tong who registered us?"
"I can't tell you that. You're asking all sorts of questions. Aren't you questioning the policy?"
"No, that's not what I meant! When are we going to the countryside?" Su Zhenzhu asked. "Where are we going?"
Officer Zheng searched through the documents, somewhat annoyed: "Originally, you were number 23. However, with your disability, you naturally don't need to go to the countryside, but you need a disability certificate from the police station so that it doesn't take up your family's 'only one person allowed' quota. So, go home and get your household registration book, and I'll get the certificate for you and submit it, and then your application can be withdrawn."
"Home...home..."
Su Zhenzhu's expression instantly darkened: "Okay, I understand... household registration book... go home..."
Watching Su Zhenzhu leave, looking dejected, Officer Zheng muttered a few words: "The old saying really came true. This boss is a bit dull and a bit stupid! To avoid going to the countryside, he actually had the heart to amputate his arm! What a ruthless person!"
Su Zhenzhu returned home at three o'clock in the afternoon.
The courtyard gate was half open.
In the warm sunshine of the courtyard, Guan Yumei was using a piping hot boiled egg to roll on the bruises on Su Manao's face.
Su Manao let out a soft, coquettish cry of pain—what a beautiful picture of motherly love and filial piety!
Su Zhenzhu felt as if she was about to grind her back teeth to powder.
After entering the house, Su Zhenzhu did not return to the west wing, but rushed straight to the kitchen and tucked the only kitchen knife in the house into her waistband.
Watching the fleeting figure, Guan Yumei asked Su Manao uncertainly, "That's...your eldest sister is back?"
Su Manao also saw her. At this moment, she jumped up from the stool, ran a few steps, rushed into the main room, and locked the door.
Guan Yumei hesitated before going to the kitchen, where she saw Su Zhenzhu using her left hand to scoop up cold water from the water tank and tilt her head back to gulp it down.
At first glance, Guan Yumei noticed her right arm, the sleeve of which was empty.
Guan Yumei covered her mouth and was about to step forward when she noticed the kitchen knife tucked into Su Zhenzhu's waistband.
