Yu Chi was surprised, "Xuanchuan, Miss Qin, what you mean is..."
Qin Hongfei nodded, "It's what you think."
After all, Yu Chi had followed Qin Hongfei for quite some time, and he immediately understood and asked someone to keep an eye on Old Lady Xia.
Just as Qin Hongfei thought, Old Lady Xia was sent to the hospital and was quickly rescued, and she was not easily dismissed.
Not only did the Qin family's trip go in vain, she still needed to rely on oxygen to spend her days in the ward. Other relatives of the Xia family were unwilling to take over such a hot potato. Not to mention that they were old and difficult to serve, but Old Lady Xia and her husband were both old, and the hospital required a younger generation to keep an eye on them. Naturally, they couldn't help but think of Xia Lu, but Xia Lu would definitely not come, so what to do, just find a way to force her to come.
Xia's relatives began to spread rumors that Xia Lu was unfilial, that she didn't care about her parents or her younger brother, etc.
In 1999, people's thinking was not advanced in all aspects. It was deeply rooted in people's minds that children should support their parents in their old age. Even if their parents had many faults, their children still had to support them in their old age. This was everyone's concept. The rumors
started to spread in the streets, and one person told ten people, and ten told a hundred people.
When Xia Shangxu heard the rumors and ran over to ask, Qin Hongfei was very calm, and it was similar to what she thought.
Old Lady Xia was stubborn and old. She hadn't seen her son for more than 20 years and couldn't lower her face to plead for her son. That meant she wanted to save her son very much, but she couldn't save him, so she had to let Xia Lu save him.
What if Xia Lu didn't want to save him? She could only suppress the word "filial piety", which was the only means Old Lady Xia could use.
"Uncle, do you have any connections?" Qin Hongfei asked.
"What kind of connections do you want..." Xia Shangxu said, "The ones that beat people? The ones that kill people?"
Qin Hongfei looked at him in surprise, "You're a businessman, how can you hide the connections that lead to murder?"
Xia Shangxu lit a cigarette and grinned, "You don't understand this as well as I do. People who do business are bound to attract jealousy from peers, so it's normal to use some connections to protect yourself."
Sometimes, even if you are nice to talk and negotiate, others will not give in because of you. On the contrary, if you are ruthless enough, others will be afraid of you and dare not provoke you.
Qin Hongfei looked at him with admiration, "No need for these, just spreading the news in the streets is enough, Yu Chi doesn't have enough connections here, it's better to spend money and time."
Xia Shangxu quickly responded and understood immediately, "I'll ask Song Zicheng for help, and find some negative information about the Xia family, and publicize the stupid things Xia Shirong did."
Qin Hongfei said, "No..."
"Uncle, you don't want to publicize the negative information about Xia Shirong."
Xia Shangxu looked at her in confusion, and soon, he looked surprised.
Qin Hongfei didn't want a tit-for-tat confrontation, nor did she want a temporary relief, she wanted to get rid of it once and for all.
She asked Yu Chi and Xia Shangxu's people to go to the streets of Qinhuai Street near Xia's house to talk with people, whether it was by beating drums or hanging banners, to scold Xia Lu - yes, scold Xia Lu, as harshly as possible.
She was scolded for being unfilial, for not caring about her old father and mother, and for not saving her own brother when she had a way to help!
For a while, the news about the Xia family spread like wildfire in Qinhuai Street, and there was a tendency to enter the town. When
the people of the old Qin family went out to buy vegetables and went to the fields and were encountered, someone would come to inquire about the situation. The rumors became more and more intense. After knowing the situation, many kind-hearted people ran to the hospital to visit Old Lady Xia and sent rice, oil and condolence money to the Xia family.
Old Lady Xia never thought that her deeds would arouse the sympathy of so many people. When someone came to visit her, she was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears. She looked like an old woman who had really suffered a lot of injustice.
She really felt that she was very miserable.
Not only did she give birth to her daughter in vain, but now her son was in trouble and she didn't care when asked to help.
That was the root of the Xia family!
If she lost this, how would she explain to the ancestors of the Xia family in the future? She didn't want to force Xia Lu, she just hoped that she could come forward to help the family. She kept crying, and everyone in the hospital ward knew the story of the old lady in this ward being abandoned by her daughter. Everyone was filled with indignation, and a fellow patient even gave Grandma Xia an idea, "Why don't you go on TV to ask for help? If you go on TV, more people will see it, and then your daughter won't believe it even if she wants to."
Grandma Xia was surprised, "My story can be on TV..."
She thought that things that could be on TV were big events.
The enthusiastic patient nodded and said, "Of course you can. Our country has been promoting caring for the elderly, children, women and children in recent years. Your situation, where your son was arrested and your daughter didn't care, is also within this scope. If you appear on TV, more people will know about it, and then more people will come to help you. Your daughter will have to care about you. If she doesn't care about you, you can sue her. She may be punished, and then her descendants will not be able to take the civil service exam with a criminal record."
Old Mrs. Xia couldn't help but hesitate when she heard this. Xia Lu, after all, is also a daughter.
The old lady next to her had a mean and sinister look on her face. When she heard that she could be on TV, she wanted to go on and promote her unfilial daughter immediately: "What are you hesitating about? If you can save Shirong, you must agree to it." As for the daughter? She deserved it.
An ungrateful man who doesn't care about his parents or his younger brother, gave birth to a daughter, but it turns out she is of no use and has no conscience at all.
When Old Lady Xia heard this, she agreed with it. As for Xia Lu's descendants not being able to take the civil service exam, then they can't take it. Why would a girl take it? She just needs to find someone to marry and be done with it. But it's different for a son. If no one takes care of all the debts, then he won't be able to find a wife. If he can't find a wife, then there's no way to continue the Xia family's bloodline. Although she felt a little sorry for the Hongfei sisters, she still said, "Then, go on TV. What do I need to prepare?"
The patient raised his thumb and praised her, "You're right, old lady. You don't have to prepare anything. I'll say hello to my friends, and then you just answer whatever the reporters ask. By the way, you should clean yourself up. Don't be sloppy or it will be difficult to be on the air."
Old Lady Xia and her husband nodded quickly. They might be on TV for the first time and were a little excited.
What the couple didn't know was that after leaving the hospital, the patient turned a corner and walked towards an open-air stall near the hospital. Xia Shangxu and Qin Hongfei were sitting in the same seat. The patient came and sat down directly opposite them, grinning, "Brother Xia, everything has been done as you said. The old lady also agreed to be on TV. When she heard that she could help her son, she was so excited that she immediately left without saying a word. Agreed."
Xia Shangxu smiled and praised him a few times, then gave him a hard work fee, "I will trouble you later."
