Wu Jianguo quickly interjected, "This is troublesome. If we didn't see clearly, my sister-in-law will have to go to the hospital on her own after the car accident!"
Zhang Amei said, "Brother Zhuang, you can go to the police station and ask. What if someone saw it?"
Zhuang Chaoying glanced at the emergency room, then at Xiang Pengfei, and then at Wu Jianguo and his wife. He was an indecisive person. He listened to his parents when he was young, and he still listened to them after he got married. Although he would ask Huang Ling for advice on some small matters, he still listened to his parents. So he said, "Such a big thing happened, and I didn't know anything about it. Why don't I discuss it with my parents?"
Wu Jianguo stomped his feet in anger and said, "What are we still discussing at this point? My sister-in-law is still in critical condition! We don't even know how much it will cost, and you'll have to pay for the surgery and hospital fees!"
Zhuang Chaoying hesitated for a moment before saying, "Should I go to the police station and ask?"
Wu Jianguo pulled him and said, "Let's go! Don't hesitate, I'll go with you!"
Zhuang Chaoying finally made up her mind and said, "Okay, I'll go, I'll go, alright?"
Zhang Amei asked anxiously, "Her dad, what about me?"
Wu Jianguo thought for a moment and said, "Oh, okay, go back and tell the boss I'll be a little late today. I'll work overtime for them tonight and make sure the work is finished!"
"Okay, I'm off then!"
Let's go!
After watching Zhang Amei leave, Zhuang Chaoying said to Wu Jianguo somewhat apologetically, "I'm sorry, Master Wu, I'll have to trouble you to come with me to the police station!"
Wu Jianguo said magnanimously, "It's alright. Everyone has difficult times. As neighbors, we should help each other out, right?"
"Fine, I'll consider this a favor I owe you!"
"Teacher Zhuang, my brother, you're being too kind. A close neighbor is worse than a distant relative. We're practically family!"
Zhuang Chaoying then said to Xiang Pengfei, "Keep an eye on both patients!"
"I understand, Uncle, don't worry!"
After Zhuang Chaoying and Wu Jianguo left, Xiang Pengfei was left alone. He looked around the ward and suddenly remembered that he still needed to get clothes for Zhou Yuxiang. He thought about it and decided to call his mother, Zhuang Hualin, so that he could both bring clothes and take care of his aunt. So he started looking for a phone number again.
Then there's Song Ying, who set up her early morning stall. For some reason, her right eye kept twitching, and she was constantly confused. She forgot to collect money from this customer or what they ordered.
Although Lin Wufeng helped her resolve the issues one by one, she was still somewhat uneasy. So she said to Lin Wufeng, "Dad, why do I always feel so uneasy? Could something be wrong?"
Lin Wufeng scolded him, "Why are you being so suspicious so early in the morning? Can you stop overthinking?"
"Anyway, I'm not at ease. Something might happen. We didn't even tell Huang Ling when we came back. I feel bad for our in-laws!"
"Why don't you just call her when you have time and apologize? Besides, it's during the Spring Festival travel rush, there's really no other way!"
"Okay, I'll call her right now!"
"Oh, you're so quick to jump to conclusions! The shop's busy right now!"
As Song Ying walked home, she said, "It won't make a difference if it's just a little longer!"
As soon as Song Ying got home, she dialed Zhang Yiming's convenience store number. Zhang Yiming's mother answered the phone and said, "Hello, who is it?"
"Sister-in-law, it's me! Song Ying!"
Yiming's mother quickly smiled and said, "Oh, Song Ying! Are you looking for Huang Ling?"
"Yes! My sister-in-law is so smart!"
"Oh, you two in-laws are so lucky, I'm so envious!"
After saying that, Yiming's mother pointed to the newsstand and said, "Tunan! Phone! Long distance!"
Zhuang Tunan, who was busy attending to customers, was about to move his wheelchair when Zhang Min said, "Let me go! Brother Tunan, it's inconvenient for you to come and go!"
As she spoke, Zhang Min quickly went to the convenience store and asked Yiming's mother, "Aunt Zhang, who called?"
"It's Song Ying, your aunt, looking for Tu Nan's mother!"
"Okay, I understand!"
Zhang Min picked up the phone and said, "Hello, Auntie, this is Zhang Min. What can I do for you?"
Song Ying was immediately taken aback. Why was Zhang Min answering the phone? Besides Tu Nan breaking his leg, was there anyone else at home?
So Song Ying asked, "Xiao Min! I'm looking for Tu Nan's mother, your Aunt Huang, is she here?"
"she,,!"
What's wrong with her?
Zhang Min hesitated at first, but fearing blame, she said, "She...she was hit by a car this morning when she went to get the newspaper!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Song Ying was even more shocked and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"I don't know either. Uncle Zhuang has already taken Aunt Huang to the hospital!"
Is it serious?
"According to Tu Nan, it sounds like Grandma Huang vomited blood!"
"Ah! What about Xiaoting? And Lin Dongzhe?"
"They've gone back to work in Shanghai!"
"What? This child is getting more and more outrageous! Okay, Xiaomin, that's all for now, I'm hanging up!"
"Okay, Aunt Song!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Min headed towards the newsstand, intending to continue with her own business.
Upon arriving at the newsstand, Zhuang Tunan asked Zhang Min, "Did Aunt Song call because she needed something?"
"It's nothing, you just miss your mom, right?"
"oh!"
Just as the two finished speaking, Zhang Amei returned from the hospital. She walked up to Zhang Min and said, "Xiao Min, Uncle Zhuang might not be back for a while because your Aunt Huang injured her lung and is still in surgery. You stay here and keep an eye on things, okay?"
Zhang Min nodded and said, "I understand, Mom!"
"I have something to do, so I'll go now. I'll cook something for Tu Nan later, or buy him something to eat!"
"good!"
Do you have any money? I'll give you some!
"I don't need a mom, I have one!"
"Okay, child, I'll be going now!"
"Um!"
After hanging up the phone, Song Ying changed her clothes and hurriedly ran back to her breakfast shop. She grabbed Lin Wufeng's hand and was about to leave.
Lin Wufeng was a little flustered and hurriedly asked Song Ying, "What are you doing? There are still customers in the breakfast shop!"
Song Ying, who was walking forward, suddenly turned her head, her eyes filled with tears. She said, "Sister Huang was in a car accident. Xiao Min said she was vomiting blood and it looks very serious. We can't just ignore this!"
"We need to go back, but Dongzhe and Xiaoting are still here, aren't we? We don't need so many people, do we?"
"Dongzhe and Xiaoting have both returned to Shanghai!"
"Why are they going so early? Tu Nan injured his leg, can't they just leave without helping?"
"If Dongzhe won't help, we'll go. I can't let Sister Huang suffer without anyone taking care of her!"
"Going is fine, as long as we get rid of the customers at the breakfast shop!"
Song Ying wiped away her tears and agreed. The two of them then went their separate ways to see the customers out of the shop.
Then Xiang Pengfei called Zhuang Hualin, and the two of them had only been waiting in the emergency room for a short while when the door opened and a nurse came out with a stretcher and asked, "Who is Zhou Yuxiang's family member?"
Xiang Pengfei hurriedly said, "I, I am!"
"Oh, the patient's IV fluids are on, they can go to a regular ward now!"
"Okay, thank you, nurse! May I ask how my aunt, Huang Ling, is doing?"
"That patient is still in surgery; it'll probably take another half hour!"
"OK!"
Xiang Pengfei turned to Zhuang Hualin and said, "Mom! You go to the ward with Yuxiang! I'll wait here for Auntie!"
Zhuang Hualin said, "I'm not familiar with that girl yet. You go ahead! I'll wait for your aunt!"
"Okay! I'll head over now, Mom!"
"Um!"
Just as Xiang Pengfei was helping the nurse push the stretcher to the ward, someone shouted at him from a short distance away, "Xiang Pengfei, where did you put my sister!"
