"Then tell me, what did you do wrong?" Yang Hongxing was still a little angry, so she picked up the sole of her shoe and hit him hard a few times.
She'd been holding her anger in all day; if he hadn't run away so fast that morning, she would have punched him already.
"Third sister, believe me, I will definitely be an honest person and do things properly from now on, and I will never mess around again."
This incident really frightened him; he's still feeling lingering fear.
He might have been a bit of a troublemaker, but he never intended to cause anyone's death.
Today was such a close call; he almost killed his brother-in-law.
He realized that he was probably not cut out to make big money!
From now on, let alone driving, even the sight of that thing makes his legs tremble!
"Fine, then tell me what you're planning to do now?" Yang Hongxing was also tired of beating people. She threw down the shoe in her hand, plopped down on the stool next to her, and asked in a cold voice.
"I'll pay, I'll pay, okay?" Yang Tianbao wiped away his tears, his voice trembling with a sob.
I don't know if it was from the pain or from the anxiety.
If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have clung to Zhou Mingjie and insisted on coming to the county town with him.
He's kicking himself now; he should have listened to him and gone to work at the brick factory.
Going to the brick factory was like doing the bare minimum, at least you wouldn't lose money, right?
"How do you plan to compensate me?" Yang Hongxing's expression softened; she sounded more like a man now.
"You...you guys name a number." He moved his lips a couple of times, his eyes looking somewhat timid.
After saying that, he quickly raised his head again, "Um... Third Sister, you know I don't have much money on me."
But I tried my best,..."
Yang Hongxing glared at him, her anger rising again, and she wanted to grab something to hit him. "Are you implying that we would try to extort you?"
Yang Tianbao, I am your older sister.
"You grew up on my back, what, you don't trust me?"
He's caused so much trouble over the years, and his family has always been the one to clean up his messes.
Let's leave aside what happened before. Just a few days ago, he brought Zhou Mingjie home without saying a word, and then...
She hadn't even confronted him yet, and he was already suspecting her instead.
What the heck?
She's so angry!
Upon seeing her angry eyes, Yang Tianbao shrank back and forced a smile.
"No, no, Third Sister, that's not what I meant. You go ahead, I'm listening... that's it."
"Okay, you can cover their medical and food expenses, and also the car repair costs."
With each word she spoke, Yang Tianbao's face grew paler. By that calculation, the amount of money involved was no small sum.
But now that things had come to this, he had no other choice but to bite the bullet and agree, "Okay. Third Sister, I'll pay."
"But I don't have any money on me right now, so you'll have to lend me some first, and I'll pay you back slowly." As he spoke, he glanced at the faces of the people in the room.
"Alright, remember what you said. If you dare to renege on your promise, see how I deal with you." Yang Hongxing knew he was telling the truth.
If he had money, he wouldn't have come to my house to collect things.
It's unrealistic to expect him to hand over this money now.
"No, I'll work hard to earn money and pay you back." Yang Tianbao said, head drooping, his face resolute.
He's been working for the transportation company these past few days, helping people move goods.
He had never done such heavy work before, and now his whole body ached, even the spaces between his bones hurt.
There's nothing I can do!
He's made such a huge mess; if he doesn't step forward and behave better, then...
He was certain that once his brother-in-law was discharged from the hospital, he would not let him off the hook.
Not to mention that Gu Yanbai was also brought along this time.
These two are no pushovers. If these two scoundrels team up to deal with him, he probably won't even have anywhere to hide.
"And also..." Yang Hongxing cleared her throat; after talking for so long, her throat was indeed a little dry.
"What else? Third Sister, tell me." Yang Tianbao quickly perked up his ears, paying close attention, afraid that he might have misheard.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you interrupting?" Yang Hongxing scolded irritably.
The latter merely pursed his lips, but dared not utter another sound.
She felt a little better and continued, "I forgot to mention earlier, there's also the nutrition allowance."
Yang Tianbao raised his head abruptly, wanting to protest, but seeing the menacing gazes fixed on him in the room...
He lost control again, and quickly lowered his head, muttering, "Alright, Third Sister, then name a number."
Yang Hongxing said, "Let me think about it first. Once I've figured it out, I'll make a list for you."
If you have no objections, just sign your name on it.
Even though we're siblings, we still need to keep clear accounts.
"Okay, then take your time calculating." Yang Tianbao felt the pain in every bone in his body intensify.
Too lazy to look at him like that, Yang Hongxing waved her hand at him, "Go do your thing."
Yang Tianbao glanced at Gu Yanbai and Zhou Mingjie, a fawning smile on his face, "Brother-in-law, Brother Yanbai, you two get some rest. I'll come see you again tomorrow."
Zhou Mingjie, impatient with his face, squeezed out a single word, "Get lost."
Yang Tianbao hurriedly ran out of the ward.
After he had run far away, Yang Hongxing pursed her lips and smiled apologetically at them, "I wonder if you are satisfied with how I handled this?"
Zhou Mingjie looked at Gu Yanbai. No matter what, that guy was his brother-in-law. Even for the sake of his wife, he couldn't make things too difficult for him.
Now it depends on what he decides.
"Let's do it this way." Gu Yanbai quickly spoke up. In any case, his injuries weren't too serious, and he could be discharged after a few more days in the hospital.
Let them handle the rest!
Moreover, it must be said that Yang Hongxing's handling of the situation was quite good.
The old man had been watching the commotion for a while, and now that they were done, he smacked his lips with satisfaction. "So, all these injuries you've sustained were caused by that kid?"
He looked at Zhou Mingjie, "He's still your brother-in-law?"
Tsk tsk, you're really unlucky to have such an unreliable brother-in-law.
What terrible sins did you commit in your past life to deserve such a terrible retribution?
Your brother-in-law, he's a real, inseparable relative, the kind you can't sever ties with. You've really had the worst luck imaginable.
The old man had won a decisive victory, and now he was laughing so hard his eyes and eyebrows were flying everywhere; he was incredibly happy.
The entire ward was filled with his triumphant laughter.
Zhou Mingjie………
Yang Hongxing………
I'm so annoyed!
That old geezer, how come he has no sense of avoiding the situation at all!
Zhou Mingjie wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, he felt that what he said made some sense.
He glanced at his wife sitting on the stool; she had given him a pleasant surprise today.
