The tractor was specially dispatched by Zhou Changsheng to make a trip to the hospital.
Not only were Aunt Luo's family sitting up there, but Guo Hongxia was also there.
Next to Guo Hongxia was a woman wearing a blue jacket, her face covered with a headscarf, her knees buried in her hands, as if afraid of being recognized.
Lu Wanqing recognized her as soon as she got in the car. Who else could it be but Zhou Ling?
After Zhou Ling was beaten by Pi Dou, Zhou Changsheng personally sent her to the Xu family.
He Shujuan reluctantly kept her, and began to beat and scold her without any restraint.
Zhou Ling stood under the scorching sun for several hours, becoming exhausted. The next day, He Shujuan woke her up early to cook, and her body finally gave out, causing her to experience stomach pain.
He Shujuan felt a burning hatred for Zhou Ling when she thought about how her family of five had almost died at Zhou Ling's hands.
They showed her absolutely no pity, still forcing her to cook, and even hitting her with a broom.
"You vicious woman, how dare you stay in my house!"
Zhou Ling was in so much pain that she ran away from the Xu family home in the rain. After returning to her parents' home, she fainted.
She lost her baby, but her stomach still aches slightly.
Guo Hongxia still felt sorry for her daughter, so she thought of taking a tractor to the county hospital to get her properly treated.
Throughout the journey, Guo Hongxia remained quiet and withdrawn. Aunt Luo, preoccupied with her son, also kept quiet.
Lu Wanqing would definitely ignore her even more!
They arrived at the county hospital in silence, where everyone got out of the car and went their separate ways.
Lu Wanqing and Aunt Luo's family went to Luo Hao's hospital room.
Luo Hao was sitting on the bed, his left hand wrapped in gauze and hanging around his neck, chatting and laughing with Lin Ye.
"Oh dear, Haozi, how are you? You scared me to death! I didn't sleep a wink all night," Aunt Luo said, her voice trembling with tears.
Others surrounded him, asking him all sorts of questions.
Lu Wanqing pulled Lin Ye aside, looking at his dark circles, her eyes welling up with tears of heartache.
"Didn't you sleep at all last night?"
Seeing that Lu Wanqing also looked a bit haggard, Lin Ye gently patted her hair with concern: "Why don't you look well? Didn't I ask Chunlei to send you a message? I'm fine."
"I can't sleep without you by my side..." Lu Wanqing muttered softly.
Lin Ye took her hand and walked towards the corridor at the end of the hospital.
That's a backup corridor, and few people usually walk through it.
While Lu Wanqing was still wondering, Lin Ye had already wrapped his arms around her and pinned her against the wall.
"Wife, I miss you so much too." His deep, cello-like voice rang in her ears.
Lu Wanqing felt a tingling sensation in her ears, and the surrounding temperature was also rising.
Lin Ye's eyes were deep and affectionate, like a deep pool that could draw her in at any moment.
The next second, her breath caught in her throat, her entire body was lifted into the air and hung on his waist, and her lips were violently sealed.
The kiss was passionate and long, and when Lin Ye released her, her legs were so weak that she could barely stand.
In such a conservative era, Lin Ye's bold actions left Lu Wanqing blushing for a long time.
After the two of them had finished being affectionate, Lu Wanqing remembered that she had brought breakfast with her!
Although Lin Ye had already eaten one steamed bun, he still finished all the food she had brought.
I can never get enough of my wife's cooking.
After Lin Ye finished eating, he took his lunchbox to the washroom to wash the dishes. When he came out, Lu Wanqing was already waiting for him at the door.
That cuddly, inseparable bond brought a faint smile to Lin Ye's face.
"Young man~ Young man, come here for a moment." A shout suddenly came from an unfamiliar hospital room.
Lin Ye walked in and asked suspiciously, "Sir, do you need any help?"
An old man in a hospital gown was lying on the hospital bed. He was still a little weak, probably because he had just had surgery. His voice was not loud, but he had a smile on his face.
Lu Wanqing, who followed her in, immediately recognized the old man as the one whose wallet had been stolen a few days ago.
"Grandpa, we meet again." Lu Wanqing said with a smile.
Lin Ye then remembered who the person in the hospital bed was.
"Young lady, thank goodness you reminded me to come to the hospital. I had heart problems and just had surgery," the old man said.
He was very grateful for Lin Ye's help in chasing the thief. The money in his wallet was several hundred yuan that he had just withdrawn from the savings bank. It was money he was going to donate to his son to develop rural education.
Just then, his son returned from the water room, and he quickly introduced his savior to his son.
Zhang Wei, all smiles, put down the basin in his hand and extended his hand to shake hands with Lin Ye.
"Thank you so much, please have a seat."
Zhang Wei was in his thirties, with a decent appearance, neatly combed hair, and dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, exuding an intellectual air.
Several people sat by the hospital bed and chatted.
“So you’re from the Victory Brigade. My dad used to work there, and I’m currently doing research on the education situation in some communes,” Zhang Wei said.
He did not mention that he was the newly appointed Minister of Education of Yushan County.
Upon hearing that the old man had worked in the Shengli Brigade, Lu Wanqing immediately perked up.
"Do you know the former Party Secretary? I heard from them that his name was Zhang Changgui."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei grinned and extended his hand to Lin Ye again, shaking his hand. "What a coincidence! My dad is Zhang Changgui. Let me introduce myself, my name is Zhang Wei."
Just when you think you've reached the end of the road, a new path opens up. You were hoping Yu Guanghui would help you find out, but unexpectedly, you met him first.
Upon hearing what Lin Ye mentioned, Zhang Changgui immediately slapped his thigh, indicating that he remembered it clearly!
The idea was originally proposed by a leader from another commune. Zhang Changgui witnessed the signing of two agreements, one of which was kept by Old Master Lin and the other was placed in the commune.
He remembered that the original agreement was for a 20-year term, after which the house would be returned to the Lin family.
"What? The house hasn't been returned to you?" Zhang Changgui asked, judging from their expressions.
Lu Wanqing shook her head. "The captain said he couldn't find the agreement, and there are no witnesses to testify to this."
“It’s alright. Next time I visit your commune, I’ll ask about it for you. This concerns the interests of the people; how can we be so careless?” Zhang Wei said.
Zhang Changgui asked, "Is Old Man Lin still alive?"
He had met Lin a few times before; the two were about the same age.
Lin Ye lowered his eyes: "My father was swept away by a flood ten years ago. My grandparents couldn't bear the blow and passed away a few years later. I only heard him mention the house and the agreement, but I never heard him mention anything else. My mother is also mentally unstable now, and I can't get any answers from her."
"Young man, don't worry, I will take full responsibility for anything I handle." Zhang Changgui immediately perked up when he talked about work.
Lu Wanqing was extremely grateful to him.
At noon, Lu Wanqing bought several cans of fruit and brought them over to the old man.
The canned food with added spiritual spring water helped the old man recover quickly after drinking it.
After finishing her work at the hospital, Lu Wanqing took Lin Ye's hand and walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative...
