Shen Yanli was a little surprised to see her outside alone: “Why did you come out?”
Zhou Yunwan didn't mention his aunt, and said lightly: "Uncle's medicine is almost finished, I will come out to call the nurse."
After listening, Shen Yanli nodded gently, “This is my friend and my father’s student Xing Maohui, and this is Zhou Yunwan, the daughter of my father’s comrade-in-arms.”
People in military uniforms may have a special aura. Zhou Yunwan couldn't help but look at the other person twice. The other person obviously noticed her at this time. Xing Maohui took the initiative to extend his hand: "Hello, comrade."
Zhou Yunwan also extended her hand: "Hello."
After the two sides greeted each other, Shen Yanli took Xing Maohui to visit Shen Dewen.
Xing Maohui walked out a few steps and couldn't help but turned back to look at the little girl by the window, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Zhou Yunwan used the excuse of going to the restroom and did not follow him. She just wandered around the floor for a while.
As expected of a military region general hospital, its scale and area are among the best.
...
...
Thinking that the time was almost up, she wanted to go back the same way, but unexpectedly, she saw several people crowding outside a ward around the corner to watch the excitement, pointing at people inside from time to time.
Adhering to the idea that it is better to have less trouble than more and to avoid getting into trouble, Zhou Yunwan had no intention of joining in the fun. But who knew that as soon as she moved her feet, she heard a familiar voice coming from that direction.
"You shameless little slut, your mother gave birth to you just to seduce other people's husbands?"
The amount of information in this sentence was so huge that Zhou Yunwan's brain froze for a while. By the time she reacted, her legs had already automatically walked towards the melon field.
There were so many people outside the ward that Zhou Yunwan, with her small body, couldn't squeeze through the aunties who were eating melons, so she could only touch an auntie's arm and try to understand the situation first: "Auntie, what's going on?"
Seeing that she was new, the old lady answered enthusiastically, "Tsk tsk tsk, it seems that the mistress was caught in bed by the original wife and was beaten to the hospital."
Another middle-aged woman also chimed in: "The mistress looks even less than half the age of the original wife. She is so shameless."
"He looks quite innocent, but I didn't expect he is such a person behind the scenes. Oh, the world is going downhill."
The two ladies talked back and forth, and Zhou Yunwan soon figured out the general situation. Since she couldn't squeeze in, she took advantage of her height and stood on tiptoe to take a look inside.
Only then did she realize that not only outside the ward, but even inside the ward was full of people.
Shen Shuxian was standing facing the gate. It could be seen at a glance that she was cursing at a young woman in the middle of the sick room and was even about to hit her.
Several nurses nearby tried to mediate the fight, but none of them could move Shen Shuxian, who was already furious, and she ended up grabbing the young woman's hair.
"You little bitch, you stinky bitch, you slut, you're just horny and have nowhere to vent, right?"
"How dare you seduce my man? I'll beat you to death."
Shen Shuxian was dressed elegantly and luxuriously, but because of her pampered life, her face, which had not been eroded by the years, looked extremely hideous at this moment. The delicate women's watch on her wrist reflected a dazzling light, which formed a sharp contrast with the endless dirty words coming out of her mouth.
Perhaps she was extremely angry, or perhaps she had never suffered such an injustice before, her eyes turned red with anger, and she pulled the other person's hair with one hand and slapped the other person's face wildly with the other hand.
Zhou Yunwan couldn't help but look at the young woman she had beaten. Indeed, as the aunties said, she looked very young, probably in her early twenties. She was pure and beautiful, but looked thin and frail, and had no power to fight back at all.
But even though she was beaten so badly, she didn't say a word, but just silently endured Shen Shuxian's unilateral beating.
Zhou Yunwan also noticed other old wounds on the young woman's face, and it was obvious that this was not the first time she was beaten.
Perhaps it was because Shen Shuxian was too harsh, and although many people cursed her, they couldn't help but speak for the mistress out of sympathy.
"If we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid someone will die."
"I don't think this girl looks like someone who would do such a thing. Is there some misunderstanding here?"
But there are also some clear-headed people among them.
"What kind of misunderstanding could there be? If there was a misunderstanding, why would she not dare to fight back? You destroyed someone else's family, you deserve to be beaten!"
Zhou Yunwan's expression did not change as she listened to what the people around her said, because in her previous life she was pushed down the stairs and fell to death by her father and the mistress, so she hated the mistress deeply and did not sympathize with her experience. She only felt that she deserved it.
Infidelity is considered a serious moral issue these days. Not only will the person be ridiculed and ostracized by neighbors and colleagues, but some people will even organize criticism meetings and make the cheater go on stage to be criticized and educated as a punishment.
If she guessed correctly, Shen Shuxian's husband must be a well-known figure. It is not uncommon for people in high positions to have mistresses. But when his wife and the mistress had such an ugly quarrel, he actually let the situation develop?
But on second thought, with a wife like Shen Shuxian who has a hot temper and a strong family background, I'm afraid it won't end well.
The social atmosphere of that time was completely different from that of later generations. For most women, the focus of life was often confined to family and marriage. They regarded their husbands as their heaven and their husbands as their support for the rest of their lives.
When their husbands find other women outside, many wives are afraid of bringing shame to themselves and ruining their reputations, and also afraid of affecting their children, so most of the time they turn a blind eye. There are very few who would bring the "scandalous things in the family" to the table like Shen Shuxian.
Just when she was distracted, the young woman was suddenly stimulated by something and began to resist.
She pushed Shen Shuxian away with all her strength, climbed up from the sickbed, stood on it, pointed at Shen Shuxian and cursed: "Why did you hit me? Why don't you hit your husband?"
"You are an old and ugly bitch. No wonder your husband doesn't like you. I'll tell you straight. Old Wang has wanted to divorce you for a long time!"
Shen Shuxian's face turned green with anger, and she was ready to go up and beat her up: "Ahhhh, you bitch, what nonsense are you talking about! I'll tear your mouth off."
The nurses tried their best to stop her, "Calm down, both of you. Sit down and talk it over."
They were trying to dissuade them verbally, but what they were actually thinking in their hearts was: Where are the security guards? Why hasn’t the security arrived yet?
"Okay, if you have the guts, then beat me to death today, or I'll go to your house tomorrow. No, not just your house, I'll also go to your workplace!"
The young woman seemed to be possessed by something suddenly. She changed her cowardly silence and pointed at Shen Shuxian and cursed her with all her might.
When Shen Shuxian saw that she, a mistress, dared to be so arrogant, she almost lost her mind on the spot and rushed straight towards the young woman.
