Haiyan's full attention is now on the young man, and it doesn't matter whether the store has suffered any losses or not.
Seeing that the young man also had many wounds on his body and head, Ye Xiaoxiao said, "Let's go to my house. I have anti-inflammatory and hemostatic drugs at home. His wounds also need treatment."
In the days when medicines were scarce, ordinary people didn’t have such things as medicine boxes at home.
Young man: "No, I'm fine."
Haiyan was the more anxious one. "It's not up to you to decide whether there is something wrong or not. Comrade Ye, thank you for your help."
Ye Xiaoxiao: “…It’s not a problem.”
Haiyan asked Ye Xiaoxiao what she was here to buy, and Ye Xiaoxiao said, "The vegetables in the yard have grown, and I came to buy some things for hot pot."
Haiyan looked at the young man's injuries and said to Ye Xiaoxiao, "Comrade Ye, please take Abang to get treated first. I will help you prepare the hot pot ingredients."
Haiyan's small shop also needs some reorganization.
Ye Xiaoxiao was also quite satisfied with this solution. "Okay, here are my money and tickets, just help me take them."
Ye Xiaoxiao told the other party what she wanted, and Haiyan agreed, "Even if my store doesn't have it, I know where to buy it. Just give it to me and I'll put it there."
So Ye Xiaoxiao took the young man named Abang and left first.
Abang didn't want to go, but if he didn't want to go, Haiyan would look at him disapprovingly, and finally he had to compromise.
Abang had some injuries on his body, but they were not serious. Ye Xiaoxiao disinfected him and applied some hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs.
The wound at the corner of the eye was deeper, with tiny pieces of glass inside.
"If the wound had been any deeper it would have hurt my eye."
As a doctor, Ye Xiaoxiao strongly disapproves of this kind of impulsive fighting behavior.
"Why do you guys act like you know that man is Haiyan's relative? Nowadays, marriage freedom is advocated, why is he still so pedantic?"
Yu Dahai is like the patriarch of a feudal society. If this kind of forced marriage happened in the capital, he would probably be called in for a talk by the director of the Women's Department.
Abang is a man who is not good at speaking. Facing Xiaoxiao's questions, he just shook his head or nodded and refused to reveal any information.
It was not until Haiyan came over that Abang stood up and said, "I'm going back to the store to pack up the things there."
Haiyan had bought everything Ye Xiaoxiao needed. When she saw Abang was about to leave, she gave the things to Ye Xiaoxiao and wanted to go with him.
"Why don't you two stay and have dinner together." Ye Xiaoxiao didn't just want to invite people to dinner, she felt that Haiyan needed help now.
"Haiyan, if you don't mind, you can tell me about your problem. Maybe I can help you."
Haiyan sighed. She didn't want to go back to the store anymore, so she simply sat down in the living room of Ye Xiaoxiao's house.
"Actually, my family wants to find a husband for me."
Haiyan said with a sour tone, "I was married to a man before, but he died young. He went out to sea less than a year after our marriage. My husband's family didn't want me, and my own family disliked me. I found a good person to lend me money, so I opened this store.
I have made a lot of money from the store over the years, and I have paid back all the money I borrowed long ago.
Maybe because I was living such a good life, my brother and mother from my mother's side started to target me again."
Haiyan's few short sentences fully revealed her sad and helpless life.
Ye Xiaoxiao: "Isn't there a Women's Federation office on the island? Why don't they take care of things like this?"
Haiyan just shook her head. "No, the Women's Federation is just a decoration. Even if I report the problem, all I get in the end is a formality that even an honest official cannot judge family affairs."
It’s not that Haiyan hasn’t looked for it, but the environment on the island is relatively closed, and many bad customs are retained. It is not as open and free as in big cities.
Ye Xiaoxiao can understand these difficulties. Protecting women’s rights is a very difficult task.
Not to mention the 1980s, this is a difficult problem even in the 21st century.
"In fact, I can leave the island now and live somewhere else, but... I am unwilling to give away all the management I have done over the years."
Haiyan was really hurt, that's why she said so much to Ye Xiaoxiao.
Abang clenched his fists and said, "Yanzi, I won't let them bully you."
"Don't worry about this matter, Abang. You hurt my eldest brother today. They will definitely make trouble for you." This is what Haiyan is most worried about now.
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes swept between the two of them.
There is an ambiguous atmosphere between Haiyan and this Abang, but they are not really a couple.
This is what they call more than friends but less than lovers.
Since 땤 cannot resolve Haiyan's issue with 놂, I'm afraid it can only be resolved violently.
Anyway, the two of them were going to stay and eat hot pot, so Ye Xiaoxiao waited until the evening to ask Lu Hanchuan what to do about this matter.
She is good at saving people, but not at fighting.
Professional matters should be left to professionals.
While Ye Xiaoxiao was thinking about this, the person that Lu Hanchuan asked to help build a chicken coop for his family also came.
Ye Xiaoxiao knew the other person, the young warrior. They were also there when she was at the toilet last time.
"It's you again!"
Gao Tianyang nodded and smiled, "Sister-in-law, it was Captain Lu who asked me to come."
Not only Gao Tianyang, but also the other two young warriors were obviously very relaxed this time compared to the last time when they were so reserved.
Everyone called Ye Xiaoxiao "sister-in-law", but when they first met her and were not familiar with her, they called her Mrs. Lu.
Ye Xiaoxiao felt that this was more friendly now, so there was no rush to do the work. She let them come into the house and have some water first.
Gao Tianyang shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, let's get to work first and report back to the army later."
"Thank you for your hard work."
After Ye Xiaoxiao finished speaking, everyone else shook their heads.
Every time Lu Hanchuan asked someone to do such trivial things, he didn't let them work in vain. The people he chose also came from relatively poor families so that they could get a little more money afterwards.
However, if this kind of behavior is really investigated, it is not in compliance with the regulations, so no one will tell anyone.
Just know in your heart that it won't be in vain.
So they dare not be lazy, and they are all very motivated.
Haiyan and Abang heard the commotion in the yard and came out to help.
Gao Tianyang was shocked when he saw Abang's bruised face and nose. "Sister-in-law, this is your friend."
Gao Tianyang did know Haiyan. He ran the only store on the island, so it was inevitable that he didn't know her.
"He's Haiyan's friend. He's in some trouble."
Gao Tianyang asked what happened. After learning the whole story, he said to Ye Xiaoxiao directly: "Sister-in-law, please trouble Captain Lu for this matter. I can help solve it."
Ye Xiaoxiao saw that he was not very old and was worried that he would cause trouble, "Don't do anything bad."
You can't do anything wrong just because you are a soldier.
Gao Tianyang quickly explained, "Sister-in-law, I know what's going on. I'm just threatening you."
