After lunch, Zhao Guohua and Huang Xinrui went back to their room for a nap, leaving the good guy Wang Jiaxing to clean the kitchen. Li Xiyue was not sleepy, so she stayed to help him.
The two chatted casually. Thinking of Lin Rou, Li Xiyue asked, "How is Lin Rou now?"
"How do you know Lin Rou?" Wang Jiaxing was surprised.
Li Xiyue then told him about her visit to Xu Xiangyang's uncle, "I know everything about Xu Xiangyang's family, Wang Zhiqing, there's no need to hide it from me anymore."
"It's not that I want to hide it, it's the captain who has repeatedly forbidden us to discuss it privately." Wang Jiaxing sighed and said, "But since the former deputy captain took the initiative to tell you, I think it's okay for me to say a few words."
Li Xiyue nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
Wang Jiaxing smiled and said, "Actually, apart from you three newly arrived educated youth, this matter is no longer a secret in the entire Chunfeng Commune."
While washing the dishes, he slowly spoke, "Not long after Lin Rou did those immoral things, their house caught fire. Her husband died in the fire, and half of her face was burned. Although she survived, she was disfigured. Her in-laws thought she was the cause of her husband's death, and they beat and scolded her. Over the years, she has lived a life worse than a dog."
"The fire was an accident?" Li Xiyue thought it couldn't be such a coincidence?
Wang Jiaxing looked outside and saw no one was around. He whispered, "Everyone knows it was Comrade Xiangyang who did it. The family even reported it to the police."
"What happened next?" Li Xiyue asked.
Wang Jiaxing said, "Because of the feud between Lin Rou and Comrade Xiang Yang's family, the police also believed that Comrade Xiang Yang was responsible. That day, a car of police came to arrest Comrade Xiang Yang. The brigade cadres protected Comrade Xiang Yang, and the villagers also stood up to testify that he had never left the village. The police had no evidence, and the villagers were protecting him tightly, so they did not dare to clash with the people."
"I also heard that some soldiers were secretly protecting Comrade Xiangyang. The police had no evidence to prove that Comrade Xiangyang was responsible, so they ended up treating the fire as an accident and closing the case."
Li Xiyue was deeply touched when she thought of that scene.
Xu Xiangyang's father was a martyr who died for his country. The only child left behind by the martyr was bullied like this. His comrades-in-arms could not just ignore it. Moreover, his mother saved all the children in the village. Of course, the villagers would protect Xu Xiangyang and his nephew.
No wonder the villagers were so secretive about Xu Xiangyang's family affairs, no wonder the team leader repeatedly ordered no one to discuss these things in private, and no wonder everyone advised her to stay away from Xu Xiangyang.
In order to avenge his uncle, Xu Xiangyang was willing to sacrifice his entire life. He is a man of blood.
Who wouldn’t say that he did a great job?
Even Li Xiyue felt relieved when she heard about Lin Rou's fate.
Heaven will not spare anyone, retribution may be delayed, but it will never fail to come.
Lin Rou suffered such an end because of her own fault.
After helping Wang Jiaxing clean up the kitchen, Li Xiyue went to Uncle Xu's house.
"Yueyue, you're back?" Uncle Xu Liu smiled so much that his gray beard shook up and down when he saw his granddaughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Li Xiyue asked with a smile: "Grandpa, did you miss me?"
"I miss you every day. I'm looking forward to your early return." Uncle Xu said with a doting look, "I heard that you brought a dying patient back to life. Girl, you're really capable. You're worthy of being my granddaughter!"
Li Xiyue laughed so hard that her body shook. "That's right, only your granddaughter is so outstanding."
The grandfather and grandson performed a shameless show of praising each other. After that, Li Xiyue took out some money from her pocket and said, "This is the disaster relief subsidy issued by the county. Please give it to the team committee."
Barefoot doctors are part of the brigade, and there are generally two situations. One is to get work points, but the money collected from medical treatment must be handed over to the team committee, and they still have to work during the busy farming season.
One is to obtain a certificate of leave of absence, which means you don’t have to work and pay a fixed amount of money to the team committee every month.
She has not yet been assessed and is not yet a formal barefoot doctor. She receives work points from the team. Therefore, the subsidy for this disaster relief has to be handed over to the team committee.
It was only five dollars, so Li Xiyue didn't take it seriously.
But she does not have to hand over the income from treating other patients, as it is not included in the disaster relief subsidy.
These days, she earned more than 20 yuan and deposited it all into the space bank.
"Okay." Uncle Xu took it.
Li Xiyue took out another two yuan and said, "These are for your medicine."
Uncle Xu Liu didn't hesitate and accepted it.
He had a leave of absence certificate and had to pay eight yuan to the team committee every month, so he had to pay for medical treatment and prescription medicine.
"Yueyue, the barefoot doctor assessment will be held in a few days. Grandpa will take you to the county to take the exam then. However, you are very capable, so this small assessment will not be difficult for you." Uncle Xu said with a smile.
Li Xiyue nodded, "Then I have to prepare too."
She has a medical qualification certificate and a medical license, so she should be able to work as a barefoot doctor directly. However, there is no barefoot doctor certificate in the local area, so she has to take another exam.
After all, in rural areas, barefoot doctor certificates are still recognized, and having an extra certificate means extra insurance.
"I heard that you went to Xiangyang's house today?" Uncle Xu asked while he was researching medicinal herbs.
Li Xiyue went over to help, "Yes, I know everything about Comrade Xiangyang's family."
"Did Jianmin say that or Xiangyang say that?" Uncle Xu asked in surprise.
Li Xiyue said: "Comrade Jianmin told me."
Uncle Xu was even more surprised. "It's rare that he's willing to tell you this. That past event was a lifelong pain in him. None of us dared to mention it, for fear of him... I didn't expect he would be willing to tell you in person."
"Grandpa, what's the condition of Comrade Jianmin's leg?" Li Xiyue asked.
