Chapter 207: Being blackmailed?
Middle-aged women have strong hands.
Lin Yiyi was being pulled by the wrist and couldn't break free. She frowned and said, "Auntie, I don't have any money. It's useless for you to pull me."
The middle-aged woman didn't listen at all. She said to herself anxiously, "Comrade, please help me. Please help me pay the fees first. I will give it to you when the baby is born and I go home."
This woman is dressed like a city girl, with fair skin and tender flesh, and everything is brand new. How could she be poor?
Even if there is no money in the bag, a girl with her looks and figure is worth a lot of money.
As for the two men who helped push the cart, their cuffs were frayed and they were wearing cloth shoes. It was obvious that they were more corrupt than they were honest. She couldn't let them go easily.
Lin Yiyi frowned. Giving birth takes a long time, she couldn't just waste the time here until the birth, right?
After a while, he came up with an idea, "Aunt, how about this, you tell me your home address and I'll ask someone for directions for you.
You are just wasting time by holding me like this."
Seeing that she agreed to help deliver the message, the middle-aged woman immediately smiled. How could she be allowed to leave after going to her house?
"Okay, okay, my home address is 23 Xingshu Street, just say you're looking for Chen Guodong."
When the middle-aged woman let go of her hand, Lin Yiyi saw a circle of red marks on it and felt that it was bad luck.
A message?
Sorry, she definitely won’t send it.
At this time, a female nurse came out of the emergency room and shouted, "Are the relatives of the pregnant woman who was just brought in here?"
"Yes, comrade. Has my daughter-in-law given birth? Is it a boy or a girl?"
The middle-aged woman walked up to the female nurse and started asking questions.
"How can it be that fast? I've only been in for ten minutes, but the mother's condition isn't good, and a natural birth isn't possible, so she has to do a caesarean section.
Go and pay the surgery fee, and quickly notify the woman's husband to sign."
After leaving a few sheets of paper, the female nurse pushed the middle-aged woman away and went into the emergency room.
The middle-aged woman's face suddenly turned grim when she heard that she had to have a caesarean section.
This will cost a lot of money. The previous ones were all natural births, and the second daughter was even born at home. Why is it so troublesome this time?
If I had a boy, I would have spent the money.
What if I give birth to another money-losing child?
The family was already struggling to feed four more mouths, so if they had another girl they might as well just give her away.
When Lin Yiyi heard the nurse say the word "caesarean section", she left decisively, fearing that she would get into trouble.
The medical level during this period cannot be compared with modern times.
If it weren't for her bad mouth, it would be easy for trouble to arise afterwards.
For safety reasons and to avoid being blamed and unable to explain herself later, Lin Yiyi pushed the cart to the police station.
She reported to the police, who then took her to Xinghua Street on a three-wheeled motorcycle to pass on the message.
In fact, most police officers won’t take care of this kind of thing if no adverse consequences have occurred.
He Yanhao thought that there was nothing to do at the police station at the moment, and he had met Lin Yiyi before.
I might as well help out on this trip.
Three months ago, Lin Yiyi was taken to the police station as an accomplice of speculation and profiteering. It was this policeman who interrogated her and later helped her deliver a note to the family compound.
On the way to Xinghua Street, Lin Yiyi asked his name.
With the company of police comrades, the matter was handled cleanly and efficiently.
It is so cool to ride on a three-wheeled motorcycle, and people are always looking at it curiously along the way.
After Lin Yiyi thanked He Yanhao, she pushed the cart back to the scrap yard.
Fearing that Uncle Zhang would violate a taboo, Lin Yiyi specially bought two firecrackers and blew them up a few times to rush the cart.
Pasted red paper.
It was almost time for lunch, so Lin Yiyi chatted with Uncle Zhang for a few words and then went to the state-owned restaurant. However, she met He Jia before she even walked out of the alley.
We met each other without knowing each other tacitly.
No one paid any attention to anyone else.
However, after receiving He Jia's cold eyes, Lin Yiyi didn't want to be polite with her. As a polite person, she naturally had to respond.
"You are just average looking, so don't do anything weird."
After saying that, he walked straight to the street and followed the crowd to the bustling city center.
He Jia's face turned ugly after being hit by Lin Yiyi's words, and he wanted to pounce on her and beat her up.
But thinking about what Lin Yiyi's man said.
In the end, I didn't dare to do it.
That afternoon at the textile factory, what Zhao Sheng said was not a joke. If she really hurt Lin Yiyi, Zhao Sheng would definitely beat her.
Lin Yiyi arrived at the state-owned restaurant and did not order any stir-fried dishes as she could not finish the meal by herself, so she simply asked for a bowl of shredded pork noodles.
Because there were a lot of people at noon, the waiting time was quite long. I had to sit at the same table with others and listen to people talking around me.
There was a lot of gossip, and Lin Yiyi smiled secretly when she heard it.
......
He Jia's trip was not in vain this time. When he saw Uncle Zhang at the scrap station, he took the initiative to step forward.
But I didn't know how to start the conversation, so I just pretended to pick something.
But the scrap yard was in a mess everywhere, and He Jia was a little afraid of dirt, so she just looked at it from time to time and didn't start to pick up the trash.
Uncle Zhang was sitting on a recliner eating plain noodles when he noticed that the round-faced girl looked at him from time to time.
He just kept his head down and behaved abnormally, so I spoke.
"Girl, what are you looking for?"
Hearing Grandpa Zhang taking the initiative to talk to her, He Jia said boldly with a red face: "Grandpa Zhang... Hello... Hello, I'm not looking for anything... I just came to see you."
Uncle Zhang almost spit out his noodles when the round-faced girl yelled at him.
"Little comrade, did you call the wrong person? I don't know you."
He Jia looked embarrassed, "Grandpa Zhang, my name is He Jia, and I am...a friend of your grandson Zhang Yaowen."
Uncle Zhang suddenly realized, "Oh, that's how it is."
But that's not right, he has never heard his eldest grandson mention this name.
Judging from the shy look on the round-faced girl's face, I'm afraid that's what he meant.
Although he was anxious about his eldest grandson's marriage, this woman was not a good match. Her appearance and personality were not to his liking.
Zhang Yaowen was originally dark-skinned, and after marrying this lesbian, all of his children were dark-skinned.
He still wants to change the genes of his family's future generations. The most important thing for his granddaughter-in-law is her appearance and good temper, nothing else matters.
He Jia was not good at talking to people, so he spoke a few dry words to Uncle Zhang, made an effort to show his familiarity, and then went back to the bookstore.
As long as she comes here every day, she will always meet Zhang Yaowen.
...
State-owned hotel.
Lin Yiyi had just picked up her chopsticks to eat noodles when she saw He Yanhao again. He was wearing a white police uniform and stood out in the crowd.
But he was not alone, there was a girl beside him.
She didn't know the girl but she looked very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her.
Ze County is small, and as long as you go to the most lively places, you can run into acquaintances going back and forth.
Cinemas, bookstores, state-owned restaurants, photo studios, grocery stores, farmers' markets, supply and marketing cooperatives, hospitals... are all concentrated in this circle.
There are high schools, junior high schools, elementary schools and kindergartens nearby.
Uncle Zhang’s scrap yard is not far away.
Anyway, during rush hour and school break time, the streets are crowded with people.
Lin Yiyi slurped her noodles and didn't go over to say hello, feeling that it was inappropriate, so she went back to the scrap yard after lunch.
She planned to spend time at Uncle Zhang's place in the afternoon.
I can also discuss some issues in the book with him.
Two or three days passed like this, and I would run into He Jia in the alley on time every day.
Lin Yiyi felt annoyed when she saw her, so she simply didn't go to the scrap yard for the time being. Plus, the weather was hot and she was afraid of getting tanned if she went out every day.
It was the fourth day since Zhao Sheng left home.
Lin Yiyi was lying on the bed reading a book with pictures and texts explaining Chinese herbal medicine. Just as she was reading with great interest, she heard the shouting of the gatekeeper downstairs.
"Is Zhao Sheng's wife from the transport team at home? Someone is looking for her at the gate!"
