After listening to Ren Rongzheng's words, Guo Chunlin thought for a few seconds, then nodded firmly: "Aunt Ren, I'll say it."
Ren Rongzheng was also relieved to hear what Guo Chunlin was going to say. She knew that this child could distinguish right from wrong.
Guo Chunlin told Ren Rongzheng everything that happened that night. Ren Rongzheng was speechless for a long time after listening.
It's really because of her.
She had thought of this a long time ago, but why did Guo Jinbiao react so strongly to this matter?
Whose gossip must have been spread by him? Whose gossip was it? Jiang Shufen?
Probably there was no one else except her. Guo Chunlin also cried at the end of his speech. He cried because he blamed himself and also because he felt sorry for Wang Yuxia.
"It's all my fault. I'm already this old, and I didn't protect my mom well. I should have tried my best to protect her. After my mom was beaten, I should have rushed her to the hospital."
Guo Chunlin blamed himself especially. He shouldn't have listened to Guo Jinbiao and Wang Yuxia and thought that he would be fine if he just lay down.
"Chunlin, don't cry, it's not your fault."
"It's all my fault, Aunt Ren. Take me to the hospital. I want to see my mother and take care of her."
"Okay, good boy, don't worry. Everything will be fine once we get to the hospital. Just take good care of yourself and your mother will get better soon."
"Yeah." Guo Chunlin nodded, then quickly wiped away his tears. "Yes, I won't cry. I have to protect my mother in the future."
"What a good boy."
Ren Rongzheng touched Chunlin's head with special affection. Who wouldn't like such an obedient and sensible child?
——
When Wang Yuxia regained consciousness, she couldn't tell whether she was still alive or had met the devil.
"Yuxia? Yuxia?"
When she heard Guo Jinbiao's voice, her mind immediately flashed back to the scene of her being beaten by him, and lying on the bed feeling uncomfortable all over and feeling desperate, waiting to die.
When Guo Jinbiao's hand touched Wang Yuxia's forehead, she was so scared that she woke up completely. Seeing that the person in front of her was Guo Jinbiao, she was stunned.
"Yuxia, you have a fever and are in the hospital now."
In the hospital?
Wang Yuxia looked at the surrounding environment and found that she was indeed in the ward.
"You...you brought me to this hospital?"
Guo Jinbiao also wanted to say that he was the one who delivered it, but so many people in the compound saw it, and he couldn't lie at all.
"It wasn't me, it was Ren Rongzheng who sent you here."
"Ren Rongzheng?"
Just when Wang Yuxia was in a daze, Guo Jinbiao hurried over and held her hand that was not receiving the IV drip.
"Yuxia, I know I was wrong. I really do. I won't do it again. They don't know the reason for your injury yet. Can you just say you went to the roof to dry grain and accidentally fell down?"
Did you go to the roof to dry the crops and accidentally fall down?
His reason was a good one for her.
"Ren Rongzheng saved you this time anyway. It wouldn't be good to just tell her you don't want to work with her anymore. You're injured, so just say you can't work anymore. Wait for you to recover for a few months. If you don't interact with her during these months, she'll slowly cut ties with you. If you don't want to offend her, then don't offend her. Just say you can't work with her due to health reasons. She won't be able to say anything, okay."
Guo Jinbiao continued to coax her, saying that he just didn't want her to start a business with Ren Rongzheng, and just wanted her to continue living her previous life.
"Mother!"
Just then, Guo Chunlin ran in anxiously, calling for his mother.
"Isn't it time to leave school yet? Why did you leave early? Why are you here?" Seeing Guo Chunlin coming, Guo Jinbiao's face was full of confusion.
"I went to pick him up from school. I asked the teacher, and the last two classes today are for self-study. Picking him up early won't affect Chunlin's studies."
Seeing that it was Ren Rongzheng who went to pick him up, Guo Jinbiao hesitated to speak. Why did she go to pick up their child? Was she deliberately asking about the child? Did Chunlin already tell him?
"Look, you've bothered the political commissar's wife again. You've sent my wife to the hospital and you've gone to pick up my child. How can I handle this?"
"We're neighbors, and besides, I have a good relationship with Mrs. Wang, so it's only natural for me to help."
Guo Jinbiao could only smile awkwardly and said nothing else.
"Mom, how are you? Are you in pain?" Guo Chunlin burst into tears immediately when he saw Wang Yuxia like this.
"Silly child, why are you crying? Mommy doesn't feel any pain."
Seeing the child crying, Wang Yuxia quickly raised her hand to wipe the child's tears. Looking at her appearance and the weak tone of her voice, Guo Chunlin knew that she was seriously injured.
"I'm sorry, Mom. It's all my fault. I should have sent you to the hospital earlier."
Guo Chunlin shouldn't have listened to Guo Jinbiao. He's not a doctor, what does he know? It was Ren Rongzheng who discovered him. If he hadn't been taken to the hospital, he might really have lost his mother.
Thinking of this, he was of course afraid. When he heard the child say this, Guo Jinbiao was afraid that Ren Rongzheng would hear something, so he quickly said to her:
"Political Commissar's Wife, I'm really sorry to bother you with our family affairs. It's getting late now, so please go back quickly. I've already asked for leave. I've been taking care of Yuxia in the hospital while she's been there."
"It's okay, I'm fine when I get home."
Seeing that Ren Rongzheng refused to leave, Guo Jinbiao was anxious, but his legs were on her body, so he couldn't do anything if she refused to leave.
At this moment, the drip was finished, and the nurse came to remove the needle from her. After removing the needle, she said: "The patient is weak. If you have an appetite now, please eat something."
"Hey, thank you, nurse."
Guo Jinbiao said something to the nurse, and then quickly asked Wang Yuxia: "Yuxia, do you have an appetite now?"
Wang Yuxia looked at Ren Rongzheng. She knew that Guo Jinbiao was there and it would be difficult for the two of them to talk, so she nodded and said, "I'm a little hungry. I want to drink some porridge."
"Want some porridge? Okay, Chunlin, I'll give you some money. Go out and buy some porridge for your mother."
"I'm not going!" Guo Chunlin said firmly, "I want to stay here with my mother. I'm not going anywhere."
"The child usually seems very obedient, why is he so disobedient now?"
Guo Jinbiao said this awkwardly, and then said to Guo Chunlin: "Go quickly, I'll give you some extra money, and you can use the rest as pocket money."
"I'm not going. I'm going to stay here with my mother."
Guo Chunlin said he would not go no matter what, and Guo Jinbiao was reluctant to let Ren Rongzheng go, so he could only go himself. But if he left, he was afraid that Wang Yuxia would say something nonsense.
"Brother Guo, you can go without worry. I'll be here to take care of Sister Wang. I won't leave until you come back."
Guo Jinbiao's smile became even more awkward as Ren Rongzheng added fuel to the fire: "Okay, I'll go then."
Before leaving, Guo Jinbiao raised his hand and touched Wang Yuxia's forehead. Under the pretext of checking if she still had a fever, he leaned close to her ear and pleaded in a low voice:
"Yuxia, I really know I was wrong. If anyone knew that I hit you, I wouldn't be able to continue serving in the army. Our family of three would be in trouble. I promise I won't do this again in the future. Please don't tell anyone."
