When Xu Li saw Xu Qiang, she stood up and cried, "Brother, they want to marry me to a fool. Auntie never gives me food to eat, and even wears clothes picked up from others. If I don't marry, Auntie will beat me."
"Brother, can you take me away? I really can't survive here, brother..."
Seeing the person in front of him crying out of breath, with new wounds on top of old ones on the exposed skin of his arms, Xu Qiang's eyes turned red.
He exerted more and more force on his hands. Chen Jialiang screamed desperately, but it was of no use.
With a crisp sound, Chen Jialiang's wrist was dislocated by Xu Qiang. The pain made Chen Jialiang faint on the spot.
Xu Guiying was terrified when she saw her son faint. She ignored her fear of Xu Qiang and sat on the ground and started howling: "Murder... Murder! Xu Qiang, neither of you two will be able to escape today. If anything happens to my son, I will never forgive you!"
When Xu Guiying shouted like this, some of the villagers who were originally gathered outside the yard to watch the excitement turned around and ran, shouting "Captain".
Meng Xunzhou looked back at Song Shishi, and after confirming that she was okay, he walked towards the unconscious Chen Jialiang.
"what you up to?"
...
...
Xu Guiying was really afraid of these soldiers. She leaned over Chen Jialiang and stared at Meng Xunzhou vigilantly.
Meng Xunzhou said nothing, reached out and grabbed Chen Jialiang's injured hand, and restored the dislocated wrist.
"Let my son go, don't touch him." Xu Guiying was about to pounce on Meng Xunzhou, but Xu Qiang grabbed her arm and she could not move.
Meng Xunzhou didn't know how he used all the strength, but there was a crisp sound. Chen Jialiang, who was originally unconscious, turned pale. He screamed and suddenly sat up from the ground, covering his wrist and crying.
"God damn it, you soldiers are bullying me like this, I'm going to sue you."
For the sake of her son, Xu Guiying also became ruthless and shouted viciously at Xu Qiang and Meng Xunzhou.
"Okay, then let's go and have a good talk about how you abused the military families and embezzled the military allowances. I want to see who screams the loudest when the time comes."
Xu Qiang walked to Xu Li and picked her up.
Xu Li was covered in wounds and had to be sent to the hospital for a check-up.
Song Shishi looked at Xu Qiang's receding back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If Xu Qiang had come back in time, Xu Li would not have died because of marrying a fool, right?
After Xu Qiang left, Xu Guiying didn't dare to say anything and could only sit on the ground and cry.
"Aren't we leaving?" Song Shishi tugged at Meng Xunzhou's sleeve and asked in a low voice.
Meng Xunzhou smiled at her gently and said softly, "There will definitely be more trouble later. I will stay and deal with it. Were you injured just now?"
Speaking of injuries, Song Shishi only felt the pain in her back at this moment.
But she didn't want to make Meng Xunzhou worry, so she just frowned slightly and shook her head.
Meng Xunzhou stared at her and was about to ask a few more questions when he heard hurried footsteps.
Team leader Zhou Jianguo and a few others were running towards this side, and the people who were watching the excitement outside the yard all made way.
Meng Xunzhou didn't waste any words. After knowing the other party's identity, he explained the whole cause and effect.
Zhou Jianguo ignored Xu Guiying who was still crying and criticized her harshly.
Xu Guiying wanted to refute, but due to her status as the team leader, she was speechless.
"Comrade Meng, do you think this is okay? Xu Li will be taken care of by the village in the future, and Xu Qiang can serve in the army without worry. I promise that what happened today will never happen again." The captain said sincerely.
"Captain Zhou, it's not that I don't want to nod my head. After all, this is Xu Qiang and Xu Li's family affair. The final decision depends on them."
"Yes, yes, then I will bring people to the town to see Xu Li later." Zhou Jianguo nodded and responded.
"Captain, what about me? Are you going to ignore my son?" Xu Guiying still didn't give up. Seeing that they had almost finished talking, she asked.
Zhou Jianguo was so angry that his teeth itched. He growled, "What do you mean by 'you'? I see your son is yelling quite loudly."
After saying that, Zhou Jianguo flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.
Meng Xunzhou and Song Shishi rushed to the town's hospital.
Meng Xunzhou and Xu Qiang came out this time for private business, so they came here by bicycle.
"Come on up, I'll take you there on my bike. If you walk, I'm afraid you won't get there before dark."
Meng Xunzhou got on his bicycle and turned around to look at Song Shishi.
Song Shishi hesitated for a moment, then thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.
But after she sat on the car, she was too embarrassed to grab Meng Xunzhou's clothes, and was afraid that she would fall off halfway, so she could only hold on to the back seat tightly.
Even if they rode bicycles, the sun was almost setting by the time they arrived at the hospital in Qinghe Town.
After finally finding Xu Li and the others, I saw Xu Qiang hugging Xu Li who was crying loudly.
Xu Qiang looked grim and his brows were furrowed.
"Lili, how are you? What did the doctor say?"
Seeing this scene, Song Shishi thought that Xu Li was ill due to the beating by Xu Guiying.
Hearing Song Shishi's voice, Xu Li stepped out of Xu Qiang's arms, wiped her tears, and explained: "Sister Shishi, I'm fine, it's just a superficial wound, just apply some medicine and it will be fine."
At this point, Xu Li suddenly remembered that Song Shishi had blocked it for her, and asked quickly: "Sister, didn't you get hit on the back as well? Hurry up and ask the doctor to apply medicine on you as well, otherwise it will be bad if you get a scar."
"Are you injured?" Meng Xunzhou frowned and was about to go forward to check.
"I'm fine. I'll just go to the doctor and get some medicine." Song Shishi waved her hands repeatedly.
Meng Xunzhou turned around and went out, and came back with the doctor after a while.
Because the area that needed medicine was on the back, Meng Xunzhou and Xu Qiang went out.
Feeling the cool sensation brought by the medicine, Song Shishi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister, Brother Meng is so good to you."
"Um?"
As soon as the doctor left, Song Shishi heard Xu Li suddenly say this.
Xu Li lay on the bed, looking at her sideways.
"According to my brother, you are the white moonlight in Brother Meng's heart, and you have been like this since childhood. I heard that in order to find a book for you this time, I heard that he went to several leaders' offices."
As Xu Li spoke, a look of envy flashed in her eyes.
"If the person I find in the future is like how Brother Meng treats me, I will be satisfied."
Song Shishi blinked, not knowing what to say.
She and Meng Xunzhou were childhood friends, and their relationship had been better than others since they were young.
So she only regarded his kindness to her as friendship, the affection between childhood friends.
She never thought that Meng Xunzhou was special to her.
But this time, since she went to the countryside, it seemed that something had really changed between them.
"How old are you? You're already thinking about these things. You have no shame."
Song Shishi raised her hand and gently scratched Xu Li's nose, jokingly saying.
"What's the big deal? Women in the village who were my age had already been married. Besides, isn't my aunt going to marry me off this time? I have to get married anyway, and I'd rather marry someone I like."
“Boom boom boom!”
There was a knock on the door outside the ward, and Meng Xunzhou and Xu Qiang pushed the door open.
