Xu Mei was scolded and angry. She had no reputation anyway, so she simply opened the window and stuck her head out: "Nie Lixia, wasn't it you who went to find me back then and told me that Ning Xueling had no family members with her, only a couple of comrades in the army, and asked me to find a chance to fool her.

"You dare to say that you didn't say such words to me? You dare to swear to the heavens with your children and grandchildren that if you say it, your children and grandchildren will not have a good death. Do you dare? If you dare, I will take over this matter, even if I wrongly accuse you, do you dare?"

These words happened to be heard by Nie Lixia's son and daughter-in-law who came to chase her. Their faces became even darker. Didn't their mother and mother-in-law feel embarrassed enough?

Two people came over and dragged Nie Lixia out. Nie Lixia was almost dragged down: "I haven't finished talking yet, what are you doing?"

The daughter-in-law of the Nie family said, "Mom, you are old and you are not afraid of being criticized. We are thick-skinned and can bear it, but the children still need to go to school and go out. Can you think about them?"

When Nie Lixia heard this, she stopped resisting and sighed, "It's all my fault. I hurt you."

It was impossible to just let the matter go. Within a few days, Nie Lixia, Xu Mei and her husband, another medical staff member involved in the incident, and the hospital were sued in court.

As for the medical worker who has passed away, Luo Xuyuan had people disrupt the jobs of her two children and even her spouse, and they all lost their jobs.

This case took almost a month to come to a conclusion. The hospital had to pay 90,000 yuan in compensation to the family due to poor management. Nie Lixia and the medical staff who took the bribes and provided conveniences each paid 40,000 yuan, and Xu Mei and her husband paid 120,000 yuan in compensation.

The hospital paid for Xu Mei's mistake, which made her feel very aggrieved. The money was compensated, but Xu Mei then received a notice of dismissal, and soon after that, her husband was also dismissed from the unit.

Years ago, this matter was apparently concluded.

Just to get involved with the He family and have them take better care of her husband's family in business, she praised He Peng to the skies. Plus, He Peng looked pretty good, so Li Qianqian agreed to date him first.

He Peng didn't expect that his aunt would be so shady and set up a trap for them when she invited them to dinner at her home. He Peng was furious at the time, thinking that Li Qianqian knew about it in advance and had set up a trap for him together with her aunt, so his enthusiasm for Li Qianqian faded.

But later, Li Qianqian found out that she was pregnant, and she told her family the truth. The Li family fell out with Li Haiying because of Li Qianqian, and they had no contact until Li Qianqian's death.

So, a few years ago, Li Haiying's husband's company went bankrupt and was acquired by another company at a super low price. Now the family has moved into a rented house.

Standing in the snowy night, Luo Qiao felt relieved when she saw the chaos at the Li family in the distance. Next was the He family. There was no rush, she could take her time.

This year, the Lu Yichen and Lu Yixuan families, Shitou's family of three, Aunt Tang and Taifeng spent the New Year at Gu's house. Lu Xinyi was assigned to another company this year and only told them that they could stay at home for a few days when they returned on the sixth day of the New Year, so they could go back to the family compound for a visit.

As soon as the winter vacation started this year, several grandchildren and grandsons went to the army to accompany him for a few days, but they were not left idle. They were all thrown into the recruit company to train with him.
