Huang Xiaojuan didn't expect the thugs from this small town to be so sharp-tongued. She couldn't defend herself and screamed angrily, "No, no!"
"Alright!" Liu Hong shouted. The policewoman no longer had a friendly attitude towards Huang Xiaojuan. "Everyone, go to the police station and give your statements!"
He turned to Xia Mian and said, "You should talk less. Take the note and take the child to the hospital for a medical check-up." Although he still spoke in a businesslike manner, his tone was much softer.
Huang Xiaojuan had never experienced such a situation. These days, if you were arrested and taken to the Public Security Bureau, you would be too embarrassed to face anyone even if you got out. When she heard about the injury examination, she immediately said, "Officer, I want to sue her for assault too. Do I need an injury examination as well?"
Old Mrs. Liu snorted, "How dare you call the police? What injuries do you want to examine? The beatings from his aunt were too light!"
"You can't say that," someone said, "You should go to the hospital and check to see if the liver is black."
Old Mrs. Liu said to Liu Hong, "Comrade Police Officer, I live across the street. Please wait a moment while I get some clothes and food for the child. It's the middle of the day, and it's okay for adults to go hungry, but the child can't go hungry any longer."
"That's right." A young woman was reminded and directly pushed the bag of egg cakes in her hand over. "I just bought it. Let the child have some first. Poor child, every child has a flat stomach."
As she spoke, her throat felt sore. Her daughter was about the same age as the child. As a mother, it was really painful to see this.
Xiao Feng was deeply afraid of adults. She clung to Xia Mian and whispered for help, "Auntie."
The woman felt very uncomfortable when she saw Xiao Feng's look, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, give the food to your aunt, good boy, eat it later." Then she handed the food to Xia Mian.
Xia Mian rubbed Xiao Feng's back and didn't refuse. He said to the woman, "Thank you, sister."
"You can just call me Sister Wang." The young woman now found Xia Mian quite pleasing to the eye. "If you need anything in the future, come to me. I live upstairs."
After Sister Wang, a sister named Zhao stuffed a box of AD calcium milk into her mouth, and a young man directly handed over a watermelon, which made Xia Mian laugh and cry.
Everyone laughed and scolded, "How are the kids supposed to eat that?!"
The man touched his head and said, "Isn't this because you think the child probably hasn't eaten it?"
Everyone sighed again.
Old Mrs. Liu took out a set of clothes and said, "This is my little grandson's. Wear it for now."
"Thank you, Aunt Liu." Xia Mian said.
"Go ahead," said Old Lady Liu. "Go early and come back early. Come to our house for dinner tonight! Make some chicken soup for the child to nourish him."
Huang Xiaojuan still tried to save face, "Aunt Liu, there's really no need, I really was wronged!"
He received unanimous eyerolls from everyone.
The male police officer shouted, "Let's go!"
When they arrived at the police station, they both took statements separately. Xia Mian and Xiao Feng's questions were relatively simple, and then they took the notes to get an injury report.
The hospital where the injuries were examined was Ming City People's Hospital, which was opposite the Huagang Family Compound. There were quite a few people crowded in the small reception hall.
As Xia Mian walked in with Xiao Feng, she felt the attention from all directions. She subconsciously lowered her head and stared at the two black eye sockets on the skull on her chest for a while.
Well, this wild taste was indeed surprising, but she looked around for a long time and couldn't see what was so amazing about it.
Just as she was wondering, she saw a young nurse with delicate makeup, walking quickly towards her with shining eyes. The look in her eyes made Xia Mian feel like she was a fat guy.
Feng's reaction was even greater than hers. He directly took her hand and took a step back. Xia Mian was led back by him and encountered resistance.
"Tsk!" accompanied by a dissatisfied sound, a strong hand pressed against her back, and Xia Mian turned around.
He was an extremely tall man. Because the light was shining behind him, Xia Mian couldn't see his appearance for a moment. She only knew that he was tall and thin. The bright afternoon sun shone through the clean glass of the hospital, giving the man's white coat a layer of warm gold, making it look sacred and inviolable.
The people around him made a small noise because of his movements, and Xia Mian's back seemed to be penetrated by gazes from all directions.
"Doctor Ning."
"Hello, Doctor Ning."
"Doctor Ning is here~"
Well, the case is solved. The astonished gazes must be given to this person. His popularity is astonishing, but this name seems familiar...
"Doctor Ning~" the woman's sweet voice sounded, with exaggerated anxiety, "Are you okay?!"
It was as if Xia Xiong was a tank, and this step back crushed Dr. Ning.
Dr. Ning!
Xia Mian suddenly widened his eyes, and he slightly turned sideways and finally saw the other person's true face: affectionate eyes, sword-like eyebrows, high nose and red lips. He was as handsome as a star who walked out of a poster. Wasn't he the Tang Sanzang who helped Huang Xiaojuan fight at noon?
She hurriedly reported the case to the police and later didn't pay attention to where the man went. She didn't expect that he was the doctor here.
Xia Mian's face immediately turned cold.
The nurse who rushed over frowned and scolded without knowing the reason, "Little sister, please walk carefully."
Xia Mian didn't want to pay attention to this little woman who was in love. Just as she was about to leave, she felt her thighs being hugged tightly. She looked down and saw Xiao Feng looking a little scared. She said timidly, "Auntie."
Xia Mian hurriedly leaned over and hugged him, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, your aunt is here." Xiao Feng buried his little face in her shoulder, as if this could help him avoid something terrible.
Ning Shaobai's eyes fell on the child in her arms. He tapped his index finger in the pocket of his white coat twice unconsciously. His tone was gentle, "Come and get the injury report?"
Seeing Ning Shaobai's concern for the child, the beautiful nurse immediately leaned over and said gently, "Don't be afraid, baby. Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Feng became even more frightened and clung tightly to Xia Mian, wishing she could hide in her pocket.
Xia Mian was just wondering about Xiao Feng's reaction when she heard an older nurse yell in an unhappy tone, "Huang Xiaoxia! What are you doing? Deliver medicine to bed number three!"
Xia Mian suddenly raised her head, "What is your relationship with Huang Xiaojuan?"
Huang Xiaoxia saw that Dr. Ning's eyes had also fallen on her, and her cheeks flushed slightly. "Huang Xiaojuan is my sister. She lives upstairs at Dr. Ning's grandmother's house..."
"No wonder." Xia Mian sneered, hugged Xiao Feng and left. Before leaving, he did not forget to give Ning Shaobai a fierce look.
Ning Shaobai raised his eyebrows, and Huang Xiaoxia said angrily, "Young girls nowadays are too uncultured. What kind of people are they? Doctor Ning, please don't take it to heart."
Ning Shaobai looked down at the pretentious nurse and said nonchalantly, "You don't know that child?"
Huang Xiaoxia was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't know her." Then she put on a very caring look and said, "That child is so cute. I love children the most."
Logically, the child should call her aunt, because he obviously knew her and was afraid of her.
Ning Shaobai sneered, walked around her and went straight to the clinic. Seeing Huang Xiaoxia still following him, he said impatiently, "The head nurse asked you to deliver the medicine. You've been delayed for a long time."
Huang Xiaoxia stuck out her tongue playfully before leaving.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when Xia Mian came out of the hospital. The detailed report will have to wait for another two days, but all the necessary medicines have been prescribed. In addition to the injuries, he also needs nutritional supplements. Such a young child is moderately malnourished. Fortunately, there are no major problems with his development. He just needs to supplement his nutrition in time.
What made Xia Mian even more furious was that the doctor found a few inconspicuous blood scabs around the child's mouth. He had really been pricked by a needle! No wonder the child didn't even dare to cry after Huang Xiaojuan threatened him.
No matter how many times I beat Huang Xiaojuan, I can't feel better.
Xia Mian felt in his trouser pocket and took out five or six yuan. In this era when the average worker's salary was only a few hundred yuan, it was already very good for a high school student to carry so much pocket money with him, but it was still far from enough to buy nutritional supplements.
Xia Mian only bought a pack of White Rabbit candies, opened one and stuffed it into Xiao Feng's mouth, picked him up and said, "Let's go home and eat delicious food!"
Xiao Feng was caught off guard when candy was stuffed into his mouth. He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt the sweet fragrance spreading in his mouth. His eyes narrowed slightly, and his two little hands circled Xia Mian's neck.
Xia Mian felt both distressed and satisfied, and she became even more determined to deal with that couple. She was not her original self. The Zhang family sucked Xiao Feng's mother's blood, and treated Xiao Feng like this. Did they still want to live a peaceful life? No way!
When Xia Mian took Xiao Feng back, there were many people gathered at the door of the apartment building. Her neighbor across the street, Mrs. Liu, told her that Huang Xiaojuan had returned from the police station.
Xia Mian was stunned for a moment, then realized that the time period in the book was around the 1990s, when ordinary people generally had a weak legal awareness. They mostly treated domestic violence, child abuse and other matters as family conflicts, mainly through mediation. But even so, it shouldn't have come out so soon, right?
As if she knew Xia Mian's doubts, Old Lady Liu said, "They should have found someone. Xiao Zhang has good relationships with people, so send everyone they know."
Sister Wang knew more clearly. "I know, it's that Gao Yongfeng. He has quite a network of connections." She whispered, "I heard he has connections in both the black and white worlds."
In her previous life, she had heard that in some small places in the early years, human relationships were more important than laws, but she didn't expect to encounter this situation.
Old Lady Liu said, "Is that the tall and thin guy who sells insurance? He looks like a very energetic young man."
"Yes, that's him." Sister Wang changed the subject. "By the way, I think that critical illness insurance he mentioned last time is pretty good..."
People's topic began to shift to insurance. Xia Mian carried Xiao Feng upstairs. She was not too depressed. It would be best if Huang Xiaojuan could be locked up, but since she couldn't lock her up for the time being, it would be nice for her to punish her personally!
It just so happens that she hasn’t had enough fun yet!
Xia Mian knocked on the door, but Huang Xiaojuan pretended to be dead and ignored her.
Look, here comes the opportunity, right?
