After the Yao siblings left, Ye Weiwei stayed at the hospital for two more days to finish her academic exchange for the month before preparing to go home with Huo Xiao.
Because Dr. Lan wanted her to rest, the surgeries scheduled for this month had to be postponed to next month. Fortunately, there weren't any particularly difficult surgeries that required Ye Weiwei's intervention.
On the day they left, Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a lot of things with their newly received wages.
Just as they were about to leave, Xu Fei came panting over, "Comrade Huo Xiao, you have a phone call."
After finding out who had called, Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao went to the post office to make another call.
Seeing that the two had bought so many things, and thinking of Ye Weiwei's health, Xu Fei cleverly found a car and drove them home after Huo Xiao finished his call.
Ye Weiwei said politely, "Officer Xu, thank you so much."
Xu Fei waved his hand, "I was just going to town anyway, it's on my way."
After saying that, he showed the documents in his hand to Ye Weiwei.
Ye Weiwei immediately noticed that the document was about compensation for Luo Rui and his grandmother. It was different from what Xu Fei had told her before, which only included compensation for Luo Rui until he turned eighteen, plus compensation for his grandmother until her death.
This is equivalent to covering Grandma Luo's retirement.
Seeing that Ye Weiwei's expression had brightened considerably, Xu Fei said, "That family is really in a terrible situation. Our bureau chief talked to the higher-ups and managed to get one more person added."
Ye Weiwei, quick-witted and perceptive, smiled knowingly: "Director Xu is truly a good official who stands up for the people."
Xu Fei scratched his head sheepishly.
His uncle's instructions were finally fulfilled.
Xu Fei first went to the town's public security bureau to deliver the documents.
After Director Liu's incident, Fang Ming was promoted to director, and Li Hao succeeded Fang Ming as the captain.
Xu Fei caught Fang Ming and launched into a tirade, scolding the guy for being disloyal and leaving him alone to deal with Yao Qingchuan.
Fang Ming rolled his eyes: "There isn't a single person in the Yao family with a normal brain. I'm afraid if I stayed there, I wouldn't be able to resist fighting with them."
Xu Fei thought about how the Yao siblings were exactly as Fang Ming had described, and said irritably, "You didn't stay there, and you still started fighting!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Ming looked at Huo Xiao excitedly, "Brother Huo, you dealt with that bastard again?"
Seeing Huo Xiao nod, Li Hao couldn't help but slap his thigh and laugh out loud: "That guy surnamed Yao is really overestimating himself. He wasn't tough enough in the army, so he came all this way to get more abuse!"
Xu Fei understood everything Fang Ming and Li Hao said.
However, he also felt that this guy surnamed Yao was indeed overestimating himself.
The way he was completely dominated and beaten by Huo Xiao that day, what else could he be but looking for a beating!
Xu Fei was originally going to talk about how Yao Qingchuan almost caused Ye Weiwei to miscarry, but Ye Weiwei changed the subject, so he didn't say anything more.
After exchanging a few jokes, Xu Fei drove Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao back to Daqingshan Village.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the Huo family's old house, they saw that someone in the village was having a wedding. It was none other than Zhao Mingzhe and Lu Xiaolan.
Zhao Mingzhe had just come out of Lu Xiaolan's house to fetch his bride. However, his cotton-padded jacket was worn out, his hair hadn't been cut in a long time, and his bangs were so long that they almost covered his eyes. There was no smile on his face, and even with a big red flower pinned to his chest, he still looked dejected and listless.
Zhao Mingzhe rode the village bicycle with Lu Xiaolan sitting on the back. She was wearing a new dress for her wedding, a red floral print dress, and her face was covered in heavy makeup. Her eyebrows were thick and black, like two burning sticks, and the red rouge on her cheeks looked like two oval pieces of red paper. Her blood-red mouth was even more irritating to the eye.
Lu Xiaolan's makeover broadened her horizons once again, and she felt that the person who did Lu Xiaolan's makeup must have a grudge against her.
However, Lu Xiaolan clearly didn't think it was bad; on the contrary, she was overjoyed and had a smile on her face the whole time.
The two headed towards the Lu family's old house, and happened to pass by the Huo family's old house, where they bumped into Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Huo Xiao opened the door and stepped out of the car with his long legs. Although he was also wearing old clothes, they were handmade by his mother-in-law, Liu Guilan. Her needlework was neat and tidy, and with his height, long legs, and energetic appearance, he could easily outshine Zhao Mingzhe just by looking at his face.
Huo Xiao went around to the side to open Ye Weiwei's car door, and helped her out of the car. The way he took such good care of her made a group of grown men around them grind their teeth and a group of older women feel envious.
Ye Weiwei wore a navy blue padded jacket today, which was also made by her mother-in-law, Liu Guilan. It was slightly fitted at the waist, and although you couldn't see it unless you looked closely, it made her look more energetic than the padded jackets worn by others.
In addition, Ye Weiwei's fair face was so white that it seemed to have a built-in beauty filter even without makeup, making Lu Xiaolan look like a clown.
The children who were chasing after the bride for candy saw Ye Weiwei and Huo Xiao get out of the car and immediately surrounded them, leaving Zhao Mingzhe and Lu Xiaolan aside.
Lu Xiaolan originally found these little brats annoying, but now that she saw them all surrounding Ye Weiwei, she felt even more unhappy.
Why does Ye Weiwei always try to steal her thunder?
She's getting married today, and Ye Weiwei deliberately brought a car back to embarrass her, right?
However, when she thought about how she would be living the life of a city dweller in the future, while Ye Weiwei would be stuck in the countryside for the rest of her life after marrying Huo Xiao, a peasant, she felt it wasn't a big deal. She even deliberately moved forward a little while sitting in the back seat and reached out to hug Zhao Mingzhe's waist.
As a result, tragedy struck.
Zhao Mingzhe lost his grip on the handlebars and happened to hit a snowdrift, causing the two of them to flip over and fall on their backsides.
The onlookers were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
The man with the witty remark even teased Lu Xiaolan: "Dahua, look at your man's skinny arms and legs. You'd better go easy on him. Look how drained he is. He can't even ride a bicycle properly anymore."
Someone who knew the truth said, "Zhao Zhiqing, you've already married Lu Xiaolan, so stop being so fickle and eyeing other people's wives!"
Zhao Mingzhe was clearly so focused on watching Ye Zhiqing go that he didn't see the road clearly and fell.
Lu Xiaolan was both ashamed and angry. She pointed at those people and yelled, "Shut up, all of you! What business is it of yours! Aren't you afraid of your tongues rotting from all this gossip!"
After saying that, she grabbed Zhao Mingzhe and quickly left for their home, giving Ye Weiwei a fierce glare as she left.
She felt that it was all because of Ye Weiwei that she had been humiliated in public on her wedding day!
