the next day.
At daybreak, Lan Guoer was awakened by the knock on the door by Tang's mother.
"Guo'er, wake up! There's a phone call for you outside."
“Here I come!”
Lan Guoer got up from the bed with sleepy eyes, yawned and opened the door.
"Mom, who's calling so early in the morning?"
"It's your Aunt Yang. She said she has something urgent to talk to you about. I heard she was very anxious, so I didn't ask any more questions." Tang's mother gathered her hair that had been messed up by sleep, stepped aside by the door, and muttered to herself.
"That old sister has it hard! She lost her son when she was little, and now she has to raise her grandson to adulthood at her old age. Her daughter-in-law is really a piece of shit. How could she be so cruel to her own flesh and blood? She just said she didn't want him!"
When Lan Guoer heard that it was Aunt Yang, and thought about how Liu Qiaoqiao was taken away by the police yesterday, she guessed that her call was most likely related to this matter.
Speaking of which, the main culprit in the riot in the hospital yesterday was Liu Ying. Although Liu Qiaoqiao also participated, she was mostly instigated by Liu Ying, and the circumstances were not that serious. In her opinion, he would be released after a few days at most.
But there will inevitably be a criminal record in the files.
Political review is particularly strict in this era, and schools are very likely to expel students with criminal records.
Liu Qiaoqiao worked hard to get into university and finally lived a life like a city dweller. How could she be willing to be expelled and go back to that remote mountain village?
It is very likely that Yang Cuilan is the reinforcement Liu Qiaoqiao called for.
She just couldn't understand why Yang Cuilan, who saw everything Liu Qiaoqiao did and was so clear-headed, was willing to be controlled by her and call to plead for her.
With doubts in her heart, she walked to the phone and picked up the receiver on the table.
"Auntie Yang, this is Guo'er, are you listening?"
Yang Cuilan's anxious, bitter, and helpless voice came from the other end of the phone, "Guo'er, I'm so sorry to bother you so early in the morning. I... I'm calling because..."
She held the phone tightly with both hands, pondering how to start, but the words were swallowed back when they reached her lips. For a moment, it was as if the line on the other end was disconnected.
The cost of making long-distance calls was not cheap these days, it was 1.2 yuan per minute, and it was charged in both directions.
Lan Guoer didn't care about the cost of answering the phone, but every minute of it was a considerable expense for Yang Cuilan.
Hearing the hesitation in her tone, in order to save the other party money, Lan Guoer did not exchange many pleasantries with her and went straight to the point.
"Auntie Yang, are you calling about Liu Qiaoqiao?"
Hearing Lan Guoer's initiative to bring it up, Yang Cuilan's nervous and tangled mood relaxed, and she sighed and said,
"That's right! You said that this matter caused a stir. Auntie knows that it was Qiaogu who did something wrong to you, and she also knows that I shouldn't have flattered my old face to call you and put you in an awkward position.
But...but she...is Hong Yazi's biological mother after all!"
Yang Cuilan wiped her tears and spoke with a heavy nasal tone.
"Guo'er, can I ask you to show some mercy to her? Don't worry!
Auntie promises you that this is the last time I will speak for her. If she doesn't repent in the future, you can do whatever you need to do. Hong Yazi and I will never say another word for her.
But this time, she asked me for help with the promise my late son made to her. I…I really…my daughter, can you just help me fulfill my son's final responsibility?"
Hearing the sobbing sound coming from the phone, Lan Guoer felt a pang of pain in her heart!
Such a loyal and righteous old man, how come he has a daughter-in-law like Liu Qiaoqiao!
But the old lady had said so much, and even if she had a heart of stone, she could not withstand the impact of the phrase "the last responsibility of a martyr" on her soul.
How could Liu Qiaoqiao deserve such a loving and righteous family?
"Auntie Yang, for your sake, I will explain the situation to the police and will no longer pursue the defamation and slander Liu Qiaoqiao hurled at me yesterday. But this is limited to me and this one time only!
Don't worry, her case isn't serious and she should be released soon."
"Thank you, my dear daughter! Auntie will definitely educate Hong Yazi well and let him always remember your kindness to our family..."
Lan Guoer hung up the phone as Yang Cuilan expressed her gratitude with sobs.
I feel mixed emotions, I don't know what to feel.
Because Lan Guoer withdrew the lawsuit, Liu Qiaoqiao was released on the same day.
Liu Ying was not as lucky as her.
Moreover, Liu Ying’s accuser was not just Lan Guoer, there was also the upright and unyielding old man Wang.
Ever since the truth came to light, Fan Gang's life has been difficult.
At work, there are spies arranged by Bai Shasha who are always watching him. The leader of the unit is also a relationship with Mr. Bai when he was alive. Knowing what he has done, he has been making things difficult for him from time to time recently, and has been making things difficult for him and expressing dissatisfaction at work.
When he returned home, he had to look at Bai Shasha's mood. Not only did he take care of all the housework, but if he was dissatisfied with her in the slightest, he would make a fuss and beat him up.
The scratches on his face have never stopped since the incident in the hospital.
But he didn't dare to resist! Who let them have evidence of his misconduct?
Come to think of it, if Mr. Bai hadn't passed away suddenly on the day of the accident, he would have been sent to the police station by Bai Shasha!
When Fan Gang suddenly received a call for help from Liu Ying at the police station, he felt overwhelmed!
