Wu Xiaojun quickly said, "Sis, I'm fine. You really are something, why did you let my brother-in-law get into this mess?"
Wu Shanshan was speechless for a moment, but after thinking for a while, she said, "I'm sorry, Xiaojun, it's all my fault. I just thought this newsstand was pretty good and wanted to open a Xinhua Bookstore, but you guys are helping Zhuang Tunan and I can't do anything about it, so I just wanted to scare you!"
Wu Xiaojun was furious and wanted to hit her, but the person in front of him was his sister, his own sister. How could he bear to do it? So he said, "Sister, how could you do this?"
"From today onwards, you no longer have this older sister!"
Two people appeared at the alley entrance; they were Wu Jianguo and Zhang Amei.
As soon as Wu Shanshan saw Wu Jianguo, she ran to him, knelt down, and cried as she said, "Dad, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry to my younger siblings, I was wrong!"
Wu Jianguo roared, "Get out! I don't have a daughter like this! You're a troublemaker, you hurt your younger siblings! Are you even human?!"
"Dad, I was wrong!"
Wu Xiaojun also spoke up for Wu Shanshan, saying, "Dad, please forgive my sister this time! After all, it's not easy for her to raise a child alone, and she still has to think about our family!"
"You even pleaded for her? You're lucky that that shot didn't kill you. From now on, our Wu family will never have a daughter like that!"
Wu Xiaojun didn't seem to care, saying, "I'm fine, aren't I? Dad, please forgive my sister this time!"
"Forgive her? Only if I'm dead. Do you know why your mother and I are here? It's because we heard that gunshot. We thought it was some other sound, but then we heard you two arguing and talking, and that's when we realized it was this brat who did it!"
At this moment, Zhang Min said, "Dad, my sister was just confused for a moment, so let's not hold it against her!"
Wu Jianguo ignored Zhang Min's words and turned to Zhang Amei, saying, "Xiao Min's mom, let's go! Let's go do some work, let's not stay here and cause trouble!"
Zhang Amei readily agreed, replying, "Okay!"
Wu Xiaojun said, "Dad, wasn't yesterday the last day?"
"It is true that it is the last day. It's not that I arrived late. The employer did not ask me to work overtime. I went early today to try to finish as soon as possible so as not to affect their use at home."
"Oh, then be careful on your way!"
Wu Jianguo and Zhang Amei then helped each other and left.
Wu Xiaojun went to help Wu Shanshan, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "Sister, don't do such distressing things in the future!"
As soon as Wu Xiaojun finished speaking, Qin Chuan, who was on the other side of the road, said, "Alright! Stop nagging. Wu Shanshan, you and Liu Jian, come with me to the police station!"
Wu Xiaojun hurried over and said to Qin Chuan, "Officer Qin, we won't hold the shooting incident against us. Let's just pretend it never happened. Please don't bother with my sister and brother-in-law!"
“Shooting has already happened, so this is no small matter. It endangers public safety, and we police officers must deal with it seriously. This has nothing to do with the conflict between you siblings!”
As he spoke, he led Liu Jian and Wu Shanshan back to the police station.
Wu Xiaojun returned to the other side and said to Zhang Min, "Second sister, what do we do now? Eldest sister and brother-in-law have been arrested."
"Let nature take its course! This is reaping what you sow, but it won't be a big deal. By the way, it's getting late, you should go to work! I'll clean up the rest!"
Wu Xiaojun raised his wrist, glanced at his watch, and then turned to go to work.
Zhang Min had been busy at the newsstand for almost an hour when Zhuang Xiaoting came out from the alleyway, glanced at the stall, and said, "Xiaomin, I've made the food. Go and eat something! I'll watch the stall here!"
Zhang Min turned her head and said, "I feel really embarrassed to have dinner at your house!"
Zhuang Xiaoting laughed and said, "You ate at our house yesterday too, so why didn't you say you felt bad?"
"I was cooking for Brother Tunan, and I just wanted to eat something too!"
"Hehe, stop talking. You're working hard for our family now, so of course you should eat our family's food. Nobody will laugh at you!"
"Okay, I'm going to eat now!"
Go!
Zhang Min stood up and walked towards the alley entrance. When she arrived at the courtyard, she didn't knock on the door and went straight into the house.
Little did they know that Zhuang Tunan was pulling up his pants on the bed, probably because his legs were still a little sore, so he didn't dare to use force.
Seeing this, Zhang Min did not avoid it, but quickly took two steps to help Zhuang Tunan.
Zhuang Tunan was probably too focused on pulling up his pants and didn't notice Zhang Min coming in. When Zhang Min reached out to help him pull them up, he looked up, saw Zhang Min, and immediately blushed and was too embarrassed to say a word.
Zhang Min then draped the clothes from the blanket over him and said, "I'll go get you some food. You can eat in bed! Come out after you're done and go watch the stall!"
"I,,!"
Zhuang Tunan wanted to say something, but the words were on the tip of his tongue and he didn't know what to say, so he just nodded.
Zhang Min went to the back kitchen, served Zhuang Tunan a bowl of food, and then served it to him before serving herself a bowl.
Meanwhile, Zhuang Xiaoting was outside during a busy time. People were going to work, doing their morning exercise, taking their children to kindergarten, and just strolling around. There were more than ten people gathered around the newsstand. Zhuang Xiaoting kept looking at this person and that person, afraid that someone would take something and not pay.
Perhaps she was too nervous and busy, because she suddenly felt nauseous and went to the side to dry heave for a while, but nothing came out.
Just then, someone said, "Where's the boss? Time to settle the bill!"
Zhuang Xiaoting quickly patted her chest, trying to suppress the nausea so she could collect the money, but before she could turn around, she heard someone say, "What did you take? Let me see!"
Zhuang Xiaoting turned around and saw Song Ying and Lin Wufeng. She smiled and walked over to Song Ying, saying, "Mom, why are you back?"
As Song Ying took the customer's money, she said, "My in-laws have had such a big accident, how could I not come back?"
“My mom is fine and will be discharged from the hospital in a few days. It’s not worth it for you to come all the way from the south!”
"Silly girl, what are you saying? If Sister Ling is in trouble, I'll come back no matter how far away I am. What's this about whether it's worth it or not? The bond between Sister Ling and me is priceless!"
"Yes, yes, you and my mom are the closest. By the way, why didn't you go directly to the hospital? You came all the way home!"
"Isn't it because home is close by? Let's go see Tu Nan first, then go to the hospital. After seeing your mother, we'll go back!"
"My brother's eating! I'll go call him for you!"
"No need, let's wait until he comes out on his own! Calling him now will only disturb his meal!"
"I feel a little bad for keeping you waiting here!"
"It's alright. You're so busy right now, I can help you out so your brother won't be too busy when he comes out!"
So the three of them got busy at the newsstand.
After Zhang Min finished eating, she helped Zhuang Tunan into his wheelchair before pushing him out.
When Zhuang Tunan saw Song Ying and Lin Wufeng, he was very happy and said, "Uncle Lin, Aunt Lin, why are you both back?"
Song Ying said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Tu Nan. We left in such a hurry that we didn't say goodbye. It's all my fault for being so inconsiderate!"
"No, we can't blame your aunt. It was during the Spring Festival travel rush, everyone had their difficulties, we understand!"
"Thank you, Tunan!"
"fine!"
"Now that you've finished eating, I'd like Xiaoting to come with us to the hospital to see your mother!"
"Okay, go ahead! Zhang Min and I can handle things here!"
Song Ying looked at Zhang Min and said, "Thank you for your help, Xiao Min!"
"It's alright! Auntie, you can go ahead and do your work if you're busy!"
Song Ying turned to Zhuang Xiaoting and said, "Let's go, Xiaoting, let's go see your mother!"
"Um!"
Just as Song Ying was about to leave with Zhuang Xiaoting and Lin Wufeng, Zhuang Tunan called out, "Auntie!"
Song Ying turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhuang Tunan took the photo out of his pocket and handed it to Song Ying, saying, "Take a look at this!"
