In the room, Lu Rong was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. When he heard the sound, he suddenly raised his head.
Surprised, he said, "Doctor Tian, you're here? Come and sit down! Come and sit down! Who is this?"
"This little girl's name is Zhou Xiang. Her grandmother needs a nanny. I'll bring her over to talk to you and see if she's a good fit."
"It's suitable, it's suitable." Lu Rong was a little impatient and agreed directly without considering the conditions.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Xiang chuckled, "You agreed without asking anything. Aren't you afraid that I'm a liar?"
"No, I'm such an old man, what can you lie to me about? Besides, you were brought here by Doctor Tian, I trust you."
Zhou Xiang nodded secretly, being honest yet tactful.
"Then you should listen to my grandmother's situation before making a decision. Being a nanny can be very unfair sometimes."
Lu Rong nodded, "Okay, go ahead!"
Zhou Xiang repeated what he had said to Tian Li.
"It's okay. When you get older, you just need to go along with her. I'm willing to do it."
"Don't you ask about the salary?"
Lu Rong smiled and said, "Food and lodging are provided, and ten or so yuan is enough."
Zhou Xiang felt that if this woman were released into the future, she would definitely suffer.
"Okay, room and board are provided, and the salary is 15 yuan a month. If you perform well, the salary will be increased later.
However, I'll pay you the salary, and you only need to get money from my grandmother to buy food and vegetables. Don't let my grandmother know how much you're paid.
I don't pay you at regular times, maybe at the beginning of the month, maybe in the middle of the month, or maybe at the end of the month. Anyway, I can only pay you when I come to the county town."
"Yes, don't worry, I will take good care of the elderly and you won't have to worry about anything."
"Let's go see my grandma first, and then come back to clean up, so she doesn't think I'm too strong."
When Zhou wanted to take Tian Li and Lu Rong to visit his grandmother, he met Liu Shan arguing with Old Lady Liu in the yard. It turned out that he knew this cousin well.
"Oh! Is your cousin coming from Jiang Province to visit your aunt? What gifts did you bring?"
Seeing Zhou Xiang, Liu Shan let go of Old Lady Liu. Thinking that everything was caused by her, he stared at her angrily and said, "You've driven me to despair, and you still have the nerve to say such sarcastic things!"
"What you said is totally irrational! What have I done to you? Did I tell you to pick the lock and steal things? Did I tell you to have an extra child and then abandon your daughter? Isn't this your karma? Go seek justice from God! It's none of my business."
Liu Shan didn't get the money from his aunt in the first place, and after being provoked by Zhou Xiang, he became so bold that he grabbed Zhou Xiang's neck.
Tian Li and Lu Rong didn't expect that a grown man like him could commit a crime just by being provoked by a few words.
There was no defense at all, and it was too late to pull Zhou Xiang back.
Zhou Xiang lifted his legs off the ground and felt difficulty breathing. His face turned red. He tried hard to grab Liu Shan's hand, but to no avail.
Liu Shan looked at Zhou Xiang, who was lying on his back like a tortoise, and said with a sly grin, "Speak again! Aren't you a good talker? Keep going!"
He was panicked for a moment and didn't think about his weapon. But when he heard Liu Shan's voice, he calmed down, entered the space with his consciousness, pulled out the dagger sheath, smuggled out the dagger, and swung it at Liu Shan.
Haha, even if I can’t catch your hand, I can at least swing the dagger at you, right?
Liu Shan wailed, let go of Zhou Xiang, and covered his forearm.
Blood oozed from his hands.
Zhou Xiang fell to the ground with a thud and said to the stunned Tian Li, "Sister Tian, go report it to the police and say that someone broke into the house and took a hostage. The hostage injured his arm while defending himself."
"Oh, okay, okay, I'll go right away."
Liu Shan endured the pain and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Don't go. I consider this injury my own bad luck."
Tian Li stopped and looked at Zhou Xiang.
"No, you just had murderous intentions towards me. You're just unlucky. I won't do anything about it! If I don't lock you up, no one will be at peace."
"Let me go, I won't come back again."
"The last time you took a hundred yuan from grandma, you said you were going back to Jiang Province and would never come back. How long has it been since then? And you've already spent all the money? Are you treating my grandma like a bank? Come and ask for money when you have no money!"
If I don't send you to labor camp, your greed will never end."
"This time it must be true. I will never come again. I will leave Huai County."
"Alright! I'll trust you once more. Write a confession, detailing your actions and your promises. Also, note that if you show up here again, I'll send this confession along with the confession to the police station."
Liu Shan wanted to refuse, but looking at the dagger waving in Zhou Xiang's hand, he nodded and said, "Okay, should I bandage my arm first?"
Zhou Xiang said to Lu Rong, "Go to the inner room. There's a wooden box on the cabinet next to the window at the back. Take it out."
Lu Rong nodded, "Okay!"
Old Mrs. Liu watched the situation unfold without saying a word. Her granddaughter's calmness in the face of danger once again confirmed that what she said was definitely not a dream.
Lu Rong took out the wooden box and placed it next to Liu Shan.
Zhou Xiang said to Tian Li, "Sister Tian, please bandage him."
"Okay!" Tian Li nodded and opened the wooden box. It turned out to be an old-fashioned medical box. It contained everything you need, and the bandages, iodine, cotton swabs, etc. were obviously new.
Zhou Xiang looked at Liu Shan and said, "This is a doctor from the county hospital. He's a waste of talent to bandage such a small wound like yours."
Liu Shan fully understood Zhou Xiang's sharp tongue, so he turned his head and ignored her.
Tian Li took out tweezers and clamps from the medical kit. When everything was ready, she asked Liu Shan to take his hand away from covering his arm.
A wound about an inch long was exposed, and the wound was not deep.
Tian Li breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Zhou was seriously injured and that he would be in the wrong instead of being in the right.
A few minutes later, Tian Li tied the last knot of the bandage and packed up the medical kit.
Zhou Xiang handed the paper and pen he had just taken out of the house to Liu Shan and said, "Write!"
Liu Shan reluctantly took the paper and pen. Why wasn't the right arm injured? There was no excuse at all.
After writing hesitantly for a while, he handed the paper to Zhou Xiang.
Zhou Xiang took it and took a look at it, then pointed out the parts that he had not written well. After three revisions, Zhou Xiang was finally satisfied.
"Copy it again! Write it neatly, or you'll have to rewrite it."
As he spoke, he gestured with the dagger that he had never put away.
The other three people in the courtyard could clearly see Liu Shan's frustration, but no one sympathized with him.
As Liu Shan stepped out of the hospital gate, Zhou Xiang added, "If you dare to come again next time, I will use more force to defend myself. I was controlling my strength just now, otherwise, your forearm would have been broken."
Liu Shan almost fell flat on his face, and he was relieved when he saw the wound just now!
He put the dagger into his pocket, turned around, and looked at Old Lady Liu, "If I don't come, will you give me another hundred yuan?"
