Qin Li was scooping rice with a spoon. When she heard the shouting, she hurried over to check.
Seeing two policemen standing at the door, she turned pale with fright.
A policeman asked her, "Comrade, may I ask if your name is Qin Li?"
Qin Li nodded stiffly.
The police asked, "What is your relationship with Zhang Laizi?"
When Qin Li heard Zhang Laizi's name, she felt sick and her heart started pounding.
Could it be that the police have discovered her and are here to arrest her?
What should I do? What should I do?
Qin Li turned her eyes and looked towards the gate.
I wonder if it will be too late if I run now?
She secretly calculated in her heart what her chances of success would be if she rushed in directly.
The two policemen were now blocking the door. If she wanted to run, she had to lead them aside first.
The yard was so big, if she could lead them into the yard and then run to the door quickly, it would be best if she could close the door from the front, which would give her more time to escape.
But she was not sure if she could escape from the yard. She was afraid that if she didn't escape from the yard, they would hold her down, and she would be in trouble.
Qin Li stood there and started an ideological struggle, turning a deaf ear to the two policemen's questions.
Wang Meilan lay on the bed and could hear clearly the voice of the person behind her.
When she heard the word "police" she had already sat up from the bed. When she heard Zhang Laizi's name, her scalp went numb and she rolled over and got out of bed.
Wang Meilan was so panicked that even one of her shoes fell off. She saw Qin Li still standing there stupidly, not knowing what she was thinking.
She quickly ran over and pulled Qin Li aside, "Comrade police, this is my daughter. She's not very smart. If you have any questions, just ask me."
The policeman saw that Qin Li didn't say anything for a long time and thought that they had scared Qin Li, so he hurriedly apologized.
"Sorry, we didn't mean to scare her. We didn't mean any harm by coming here. We just came to let her know.
This morning, a villager went hunting and heard someone calling for help. He went to see and found that a man had fallen into a cave.
We rushed over to ask him a few questions and found that his brain might have been damaged and he could not remember anything.
All I remember is his name is Zhang Laizi, his wife is Qin Li, and your home address.
May I ask if there is a person named Zhang Laizi in your family? "
Wang Meilan was stunned. Zhang Laizi was not dead. He was still alive and had amnesia.
I don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing?
Just as Wang Meilan was thinking about how to answer, Qin Li said, "Comrade police, I don't..."
She wanted to say that she didn't know Zhang Laizi, and once she could fool the two policemen away, she would quickly pack up and run away.
Those who flee far away will never come back in their lifetime.
Wang Meilan quickly interrupted her, "Yes, police comrade, Zhang Laizi is my son-in-law. He is usually lazy and often stays out all night.
He didn't come back last night, and we didn't take it seriously. How did he...how did he get up there?"
At this point, Wang Meilan's tone suddenly became anxious, "Comrade police, where is he now? Is he okay?"
The two policemen looked at each other. It seemed that they had found the right place.
"He is in the hospital now. Apart from symptoms of amnesia, his vital signs are stable. You and your family can go to the public hospital to take care of him when you have time. If he is fine in a day or two, he can be discharged."
"Okay, okay, I'll pack up and go see him right away, police comrade, please."
"You're welcome. This is our job."
After sending the two policemen to the gate, Qin Li quickly stepped forward to close the gate and pulled Wang Meilan into the house.
"Mom, what should we do? What should we do? How about we run together, run far away..."
"Why are you running? Where are you running to? How are you going to survive if you run away?"
"But...but if Zhang Laizi regains his memory, he will definitely report us to the police. What should we do then? We can't just sit there and wait for death."
Wang Meilan glared at Qin Li and said, "Why are you panicking? Let's go and find out the situation first."
Seeing Wang Meilan being so calm, Qin Li felt a little more relaxed.
"Mom, but why are you saying that I am the wife of Zhang Laizi? I haven't even had time to ask him to leave, but you are still here to claim a relative. If you recognize me now, how can I live in the future?"
Wang Meilan reached out and poked Qin Li on the forehead in frustration.
"Why don't you use your brain? Don't you think there is something wrong with this?"
Qin Li was puzzled. "What's the problem?"
"Zhang Laizi is not dead, but he has lost his memory and can't remember anything except you, his wife, and where our home is. Don't you think he may have done this on purpose?"
Qin Li nodded, not quite understanding, "You said that Zhang Laizi did not lose his memory, and he deliberately told the police that?"
Wang Meilan nodded. "Let's go and take a look now?"
"But mom, I've already prepared dinner, how about we go over after we finish eating?"
Wang Meilan glared at Qin Li. She was in a hurry to pack up and run away just now, but now she was still thinking about whether to eat or not.
She suddenly found that she looked down upon her own daughter more and more.
Wang Meilan said to Qin Li in a bad mood: "It's already this time, and you're still thinking about eating.
What if Zhang Zizi is just pretending to be a scoundrel? When he gets angry, he reveals everything you have done. You are still eating, but you will end up in jail."
Qin Li shuddered when she heard this, "Then...then we won't eat, let's go."
Qin Li was about to leave when she was stopped by Wang Meilan.
"Wait a moment."
"What's the matter?"
"Since you are going to see a doctor, you must bring some food with you for lunch."
Qin Li thought it made sense, so she quickly went to the kitchen to find a lunch box, put the noodles in the pot into the lunch box, found a bag to put the noodles in, and then the mother and daughter went to the hospital.
They found Zhang Laizi's ward and stood at the door. Wang Meilan took a deep breath, gave Qin Li a warning look, and then pushed the door open and walked in.
All three beds in the ward were occupied. Everyone was eating in the ward at that time. When they saw someone push the door open, everyone looked towards the door.
Wang Meilan instantly put on an uneasy expression. When she saw Zhang Laizi lying on the middle bed, she hurriedly called out to him.
"What's wrong with you, you rascal? Who made you like this?"
