Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Compensation
Lu Fa treated Ning Shaoming as a loyal listener and scolded Sun Hongguang and Gao Guangqiang back and forth for half an hour.
Ning Shaoming saw that he was about to continue, so he took the opportunity to say while he was drinking water to moisten his throat, "My wife was complaining that she was hungry before I came back to cook. Boss Lu, I'm going to take her food first. Thank you for the pork trotter and ginger. Let's talk some other time when we're free?"
Lu Fa was a little reluctant to leave, but he couldn't delay the other person from taking care of the patient, so he said, "Okay, go quickly. When Xiao Zhao is discharged from the hospital, I'll bring tea and a thank-you gift to your house, and we can enjoy the tea and chat slowly."
After bringing the meal back to the hospital, Ning Shaoming first asked the doctor to confirm that Zhao Ruyue could eat what he brought before he went to the ward to deliver it to her.
The ginger pork trotter that Lu sent was indeed very delicious and suited Zhao Ruyue’s taste very much. The heavy weight on her heart fell away and she now enjoyed everything she ate.
While eating, Zhao Ruyue listened to Ning Shaoming telling him what happened when he returned to the rental house to cook.
The ward she was staying in was a double room, but the other bed was still unoccupied. They didn't have to worry about outsiders when they talked, they just had to speak quietly so that passers-by wouldn't hear.
Zhao Ruyue could guess what her fellow villagers would say, and she was not surprised at all.
However, she was surprised to hear that Gao Guangqiang's crime was involved in a third case.
Zhao Ruyue never expected that when Sun Hongguang was caught and interrogated, an "unexpected surprise" would be revealed.
She had never heard of this smuggling case in her previous life.
She didn’t know whether she hadn’t found out in her previous life or had found out, but she didn’t pay attention to the news here because of the closed information in her hometown. She was definitely not someone who liked to read the news and newspapers.
She lowered her head and gnawed on the pig's trotter. Her eyes, hidden by her eyelashes, flickered slightly. She thought: In other words, even if Gao Guangqiang gets a light sentence in her case, he will not escape the sentencing for the other two cases, and he may even have to eat peanuts.
Zhao Ruyue swallowed the meat in her mouth and said to Ning Shaoming: "The Gao family must be trying to find a way to rescue Gao Guangqiang now. Maybe they will come to me in a few days."
Ning Shaoming stopped using his chopsticks to pick up food for her and frowned slightly: "I'm not going anywhere these days. If they dare to come, I'll drive them out with a big mop! The cleaners in the hospital will put the broom in the toilet pit and wash it while flushing. I saw it with my own eyes when I went to the toilet at noon."
"We're eating right now, what nonsense are you talking about! Can't you let me eat properly?" Zhao Ruyue punched him on the arm in disgust, but unfortunately she was weak and her strength was not as strong as before.
Ning Shaoming surrendered: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. Anyway, I will definitely guard the door and not let them come in to disturb your recovery!"
"There's no need. If I don't let them in, how can I ask them for compensation for Gao Guangqiang's injury?" She went to so much trouble to get herself injured and lose her child just to send Lu Qiuying and her husband and Gao Guangqiang to jail.
The perpetrators will be punished, and I, the victim, should also receive the compensation I deserve.
In order to get Gao Guangqiang out, the Gao family will definitely use their connections and try every means to reduce Gao Guangqiang's sentence. As a result, it is unknown when the case can be closed.
The unknown makes her feel uneasy. She can get it, but if it's not in her pocket, it doesn't belong to her. It's better to put it in her pocket and feel safe.
If she had no children to raise, no debts to pay, and her mentality was still young, she might still be stubborn enough to regard money as dirt, and sincerely believe that as long as the bad guys were punished, it didn't matter whether she compensated or not.
As for now...of course the compensation is more attractive.
Gao Guangqiang's family was indeed trying to find ways to rescue Gao Guangqiang. They used their connections to meet him at noon on the day Gao Guangqiang was arrested.
At this time, Gao Guangqiang didn't know that Sun Hongguang had also been arrested. He told his family to find Lu Qiuying's husband Sun Hongguang as soon as possible: "If I am not identified as the main criminal, I will not be sentenced for a long time. Lu Qiuying is just a rustic village woman with little knowledge and no status at home. She listens to Sun Hongguang in everything.
If you want her to take the main responsibility, it would be best to pass the message through her husband. You can just go to the address I gave you. Sun Hongguang will definitely be at home today. ”
Gao Guangqiang holds Sun Hongguang's biggest source of income, and he still has a previous payment that he has not yet given to Sun Hongguang.
The two agreed to give the money today, and he would take the twenty discs away with him, so he was very sure that Sun Hongguang would help him.
Moreover, Gao Guangqiang felt that what he said about Lu Qiuying was not exaggerated. From his previous observations, the relationship between the couple was indeed completely dominated by Sun Hongguang. Lu Qiuying didn't dare to say a word even after being beaten, and even made excuses for her husband outside. What a coward!
In order to get Gao Guangqiang out as soon as possible and make him suffer as little as possible, after meeting Gao Guangqiang, the Gao family immediately went to get the money and then rushed to Sun Hongguang's rental house.
They had prepared a lot of money and were ready to pay him directly to persuade Lu Qiuying to take most of the blame.
The Gao family hurried to the yard of the house where Sun Hongguang rented. It was already evening. They were so anxious when they rushed in that they almost bumped into a man who was walking out quickly with a thermos bucket in his left hand and a lunch box in his right hand.
Gao's mother, who was at the front, was about to curse, but the man had already walked away quickly. She could only spit at the man's back angrily and cursed in a low voice: "Go and reincarnate! You idiot, I wish you a quick death and a rebirth!"
Due to the lack of information between the two sides, they unexpectedly came to nothing.
When walking downstairs, she met an old man walking out slowly in the yard. Gao's mother hurriedly stopped the old man and asked, "Hey, you live here, so you should know Sun Hongguang who lives on the second floor over there? Do you know where he went?"
Lu Fa just saw this woman squinting and curling her lips at Ning Shaoming. Ning Shaoming had done a favor to his family, and this woman dared to treat his benefactor like this. Lu Fa didn't bother to pay attention to her. He snorted coldly, walked around these people and left quickly.
Gao's mother was so angry that she was about to die, but there was nothing she could do and she had to continue asking people.
After changing someone and spending some money, I found out from another tenant in the yard that Sun Hongguang had also been arrested!
At that time, they didn't know what this meant, nor did they know that Gao Guangqiang was involved.
The Gao family had no choice but to go home and try to find connections again, asking their acquaintances to talk to the police and ask them to let them meet Sun Hongguang, and then let Sun Hongguang and Lu Qiuying meet again.
But during the time when they went home to get their passbook and then went to the bank to withdraw money, the police had already finished interrogating Sun Hongguang and quickly set up a special task force.
The task force members didn't buy it at all. Among the victims were family members of their superiors, and the higher-ups were keeping a close eye on the case, and they were determined to uproot all the forces involved in the case.
At a time like this, with such a big case, who would dare to mess around?
They could only barely find out from the acquaintances they contacted that Sun Hongguang's case was related to the sale of pornographic CDs, but they could not find out more.
When the Gao family heard this, they became even more anxious, thinking that the CDs sold by Sun Hongguang were purchased from Gao Guangqiang, because their whole family knew that Gao Guangqiang would get some CDs to sell.
Seeing that he was doing business well, I thought he was doing something serious.
Gao Guangqiang was so sure to ask them to find Sun Hongguang, they would not have thought that he must have had a lot of dealings with Sun Hongguang.
When I heard that Sun Hongguang was arrested for selling CDs, how could I not associate it with Gao Guangqiang’s CD trading?
Gao Guangqiang's father, in particular, was sweating profusely on the way home from the police station, fearing that the police would find out that those CDs were related to his son.
If Sun Hongguang can't be seen, it will probably be difficult for Lu Qiuying to take the main responsibility.
At this time, Gao Guangqiang's family finally remembered the unfortunate victim Zhao Ruyue.
By this time, several days had passed since Zhao Ruyue was hospitalized. The police officer in charge of the Sun Hong CD case had come to Ning Shaoming to inquire about the situation and took away another box of CDs.
The doctor also said that Zhao Ruyue could be discharged from the hospital, but Ning Shaoming was worried and insisted that Zhao Ruyue stay for a few more days until her body recovered better before being discharged.
He even hoped that Zhao Ruyue could stay in the hospital for a longer period of time, even until she had finished her confinement and recovered completely, but unfortunately Zhao Ruyue disagreed.
Originally, Gao's mother was very reluctant to come. She thought that Zhao Ruyue was just a migrant worker from another place, and also a vixen and a troublemaker, the culprit who caused her son to suffer these crimes.
Maybe his fate was unlucky for her precious son, and he was not worthy of her coming to him in person to beg for help. She felt cheap asking such a person for help.
But there is no other way now. If we want Gao Guangqiang to get a reduced sentence, we must get a letter of forgiveness signed by Zhao Ruyue.
Gao's father and mother came to the hospital and walked into the lobby, facing the cashier's booth. They took a quick look and walked towards the inpatient department without stopping.
I walked to the door of the ward I had inquired about and was about to push the door open. But then I remembered that I was there to ask for a favor, so I hesitated and didn't push the door open.
He then raised his hand and knocked on the door, waiting for a voice from inside: "The door is not locked, please come in." Then he pushed the door open and walked in.
In the ward, the couple were having breakfast. Today they were having the lean meat porridge that Ning Shaoming had cooked early in the morning.
Zhao Ruyue held a small bowl of porridge and ate it with great relish. The porridge was a little hot in the mouth, but not enough to burn anyone.
After eating it, you can feel the warmth in your stomach, and then your body slowly warms up, your hands and feet are no longer cold, and you even sweat slightly.
The person outside pushed the door open. Zhao Ruyue just looked up and saw Gao's mother glancing at the hospital bed.
The somewhat uncomfortable look swept across her face, body and the bowl of porridge in her hands.
Even though they had smiles on their faces, Zhao Ruyue still caught a flash of contempt in their eyes.
As soon as Gao's mother entered the room, she unceremoniously tried to take the lead in the conversation: "Hey, you are having breakfast? It seems we came at the wrong time."
Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming guessed who they were, but pretended not to know: "Who are you? Did you walk into the wrong ward? We are the ones living in this ward, and we don't have any relatives in Pengcheng."
"You're right, you're right," Gao's mother pointed at the head of her bed. "I saw the name written on the sign next to your bed. It's Zhao Ruyue I'm looking for. We are Guangqiang's parents. We came here today..."
"Get lost!" Without waiting for Gao's mother to finish, Zhao Ruyue slammed the bowl of porridge on the bedside table and pointed outside the ward. "You are not welcome here. Get lost! Get away!"
