I heard that the girls' dormitory at the educated youth settlement was so noisy that no one got any rest all night. Mo Lijuan was really making a fuss. One minute she was holding her head and crying out in pain, and the next she was vomiting. After one night, her face turned pale and bloodless, and she was so weak that she couldn't get out of bed.
The educated youth quickly found the brigade leader, and when Lu Guoan saw the situation, he hurriedly asked Lu Yuanchao to drive the tractor and take the person to the health center with two other educated youths.
After examining the person, the doctors at the health center told them to take them to the county hospital immediately.
Lu Yuanchao couldn't make up his mind, so he called back to the brigade. Lu Guoan remembered that Lu Yuanchao was related to Lu Yuanchao's wife, so he came to find the young couple again.
Lu Yuan immediately said, "Send them to the county hospital. Tell Yuan Chao to get another certificate from the hospital, and if that doesn't work, send them back to their hometown for medical treatment."
Lu Guoan understood perfectly; this person wanted to apply for medical retirement.
"Okay, I know what to do."
Mo Lijuan's medical retirement was processed very quickly, within three days. She was a little stunned when she received the medical retirement notice, as she didn't want it.
However, the physical torment was indeed making her very uncomfortable. Now, no one at the educated youth settlement was willing to take care of her every day, so she still had to go back and rely on her mother.
In fact, she strongly suspected that Lu Yuan and Wen Moxue were behind it. Last time, Lu Yuan mentioned that he would find a way to let her return to the city, and then Wen Moxue went to bring her food.
Her cousin had never visited her at the educated youth settlement, so why would she think of bringing her food? Two days later, her health deteriorated; what a coincidence!
But these were all just her suspicions; there was no evidence whatsoever.
"They're finally gone!"
Not only did Lu Yuan and his wife breathe a sigh of relief, but the educated youth settlement and the brigade cadres also breathed a sigh of relief.
A few days later, the young couple received a call from Aunt Mo, who questioned them about why they had been so cruel to their own cousin. The couple knew exactly what had happened, but they wouldn't admit it.
The two argued for a bit on the phone, and the other party tried to intimidate them by using their seniority, but the young couple wouldn't listen. In the end, the other party was so angry that they cried when they hung up.
The young couple called Mr. and Mrs. Wen again and told them about Aunt Mo's behavior. The couple were furious and stormed over to Aunt Mo's house after get off work that day.
Later, the young couple received a call from Wen Qihang, who told them what happened that day.
"They argued quite fiercely and almost came to blows, but my uncle came and calmed them down."
"What are the attitudes of my second uncle and second cousin? Do they also think we drugged them?"
"No, but the two of them also felt that you didn't take care of her. After all, they are family, and they will side with their relatives regardless of right or wrong."
"What 'helping relatives regardless of right or wrong'? This whole family is clueless," Lu Yuan said.
"Yes, the two families have completely broken off relations and should no longer have any dealings with each other."
"It's better not to associate with her, brother. That Mo Lijuan is no good; she's very malicious. Be more careful in the future, or she might do something bad," Wen Muxue reminded him.
"Don't worry, she's in the hospital getting treatment every day and doesn't have the energy to cause us any trouble."
"Yeah, I'm just worried that she'll come out and cause trouble again once she recovers from her illness."
"Okay, I understand, I'll be careful."
After finishing that, Wen Qihang stammered and started talking about something else, "My mom has been looking for someone for me recently, and I guess we'll be engaged soon."
"Really? Bro, what's her background? What does she do? How old is she? Is she pretty? Is she a good person? Does she have any awful relatives like Mo Lijuan in her family?"
When Wen Moxue heard that her brother was going to find a girlfriend, she became very gossipy.
Wen Qihang was both amused and exasperated; his younger sister seemed to be checking his household registration.
"He was a saleswoman at a department store, a year younger than me, and fairly good-looking. He had an older brother and got married last year. Both his parents worked. He seemed like a nice person to get along with, with a cheerful and outgoing personality."
The young couple immediately knew that the man was very satisfied with the other party, and the terms sounded quite good.
“Brother, you’re getting engaged and getting married soon, which will cost a lot of money. So please don’t send us money anymore, we have enough.” Lu Yuan said.
"I'm too young to get married. My parents want me to wait until Xiaoxue gives birth next year before I get married, so that you can come back to attend my wedding."
“Sure, we’ll take the kids back for the wedding. No matter when the wedding is held, we won’t need to send money anymore; we’re not short of money.”
Wen Moxue added, "Yes, brother, A Yuan's monthly salary is not low now. With bonuses, it might even be higher than your and Mom and Dad's combined salaries. And my in-laws just gave us a few thousand yuan not long ago. We really don't lack money."
"Several thousand yuan, so much? Where did your in-laws get so much money? No, you don't even have a mother-in-law."
Alright, so I haven't told them about Lu Yuan acknowledging his biological parents yet. So I briefly explained the situation and introduced the identities of his biological parents.
Afterwards, he asked, "Didn't Mo Lijuan say anything when she went back?"
Wen Qihang was still in shock and said blankly, "She didn't say anything. She didn't mention it at all."
Tsk, good news really doesn't travel far!
The Wen family in Hangzhou.
When Wen Qihang got home, he told his parents the latest news. The couple were shocked, but after the initial shock, they were overjoyed for their daughter and son-in-law. Mo Yitao cried tears of joy.
Just then, Wen Moyu arrived, heavily pregnant.
"Oh, Mom, what's wrong? Did you cry because Xiaoxue did something heinous?"
Mo Yitao rolled her eyes. "Xiaoxue won't learn from some people with crooked hearts."
“That’s hard to say. I went to see my cousin Lijuan today. She’s so sick she looks terrible. How could Xiaoxue be so heartless? She’s still holding a grudge because Lijuan lost 50 yuan. Is it really necessary? Didn’t she give her the money back later? She’s still dissatisfied with Lijuan. I don’t know what she’s been feeding her that’s making her suffer every day.”
Mo Lijuan is now convinced that Wen Moxue poisoned her, otherwise why couldn't the doctors find out the specific cause of her illness?
She knew Wen Moxue didn't have that ability, but Doctor Gao definitely did.
Wen Shengtao and Mo Yitao were so angry they wanted to punch someone. It was one thing for others to say things, but for her own sister to join in spreading rumors was unacceptable. They wanted to prove the truth.
"Hmph, you really are a good sister to Xiaoxue. Outsiders spread rumors, and you even agree with them. If Mo Lijuan could produce any evidence and wasn't just talking, she would have called the police long ago."
"Sigh, aren't you just taking advantage of the fact that she can't produce any evidence to deny it? Lijuan already said that Xiaoxue deliberately took away the lunchbox after giving her food, which is practically destroying the evidence, isn't it?"
"Bullshit! Xiaoxue kindly brought her food but delivered the wrong thing. She was fine after eating it, but got sick a few days later. What a heartless bastard."
"That medicine must be slow-acting; it will take several days for it to take effect."
"Wen Moyu, you just can't stand to see Xiaoxue doing well, can you? You insist on putting a bad name on her head?" Wen Qihang was truly furious.
"It's a pity, I'm destined to disappoint you. Xiaoxue is doing very well. The man she married, Ayuan, is actually the long-lost child of a high-ranking official in their provincial capital. He was recently found by his biological parents and has been recognized by his family. Xiaoxue's parents-in-law gave her several thousand yuan in betrothal gifts all at once."
"Oh, right, you didn't know, did you? Xiaoxue is pregnant too, and with triplets no less! Wow, Xiaoxue's life is so lucky!"
