Chapter 217 Taking Care of Him for a Lifetime
letter?
Erhe pinched the letter and felt that it was too thick. It looked like there were a lot of papers stuffed inside.
Dr. Chen has never opened it, so naturally he doesn't know what's inside.
Come out of the office.
Erhe opened the envelope and found a stack of banknotes inside, with denominations of 1 yuan, 2 yuan and 50 cents. Erhe didn't need to count them, she knew there must be 20 yuan in it.
She had previously lent Lu Zhou twenty yuan in the provincial capital, and now he was thinking about returning the money to her.
"This money..." Zou Zhou felt strange when he saw a stack of money.
Erhe felt sad. "Before, he hid in the provincial capital in order to concentrate on reviewing. He didn't seem to have enough money with him. He only ate rice balls every day. I lent him 20 yuan, and he returned the money to me."
Zou Zhou felt sad when he heard this and did not respond.
The two stood in the corridor. The county hospital at this time was also quite simple. Half of the wall was painted white and there was a smell of disinfectant in the air.
There was a row of wooden chairs against the wall.
There were footsteps coming.
Mother Du came over with her handbag. Suddenly, she saw two people standing in the corridor. Her face looked uncomfortable for a moment, and then she strode over. "Why are you in the hospital? Are you here to see Lu Zhou too?"
"You've hurt him so badly, yet you can still talk about him calmly?" Erhe didn't intend to have any intersection with the Du family. Although Du's mother had hurt her before, it was all caused by Chen Yuqin. After the matter was settled, the two families no longer had any contact.
It’s really infuriating that Du’s mother can still act like nothing’s wrong.
Du's mother was probably still feeling uneasy. She lifted her bag strap and said, "Are you talking about Lu Zhou's incident? That was an accident. I was just trying to scare him. Could I really stop him from taking the college entrance exam? Who knew he'd suddenly lunge at me to get his admission ticket? I instinctively dodged, and he tumbled down the stairs, hitting his head on a rock. That's how he got into this."
"Since you've hurt people like this, you should at least feel a little sorry now. Do you look like you owe someone something?" Zou Zhou was also very angry.
I've never met such a selfish and annoying person.
But Lu Zhou got away on his own and couldn't blame the Du family.
"That's why I came here to ask the doctor about the situation. Don't say we didn't say anything. I've already paid fifty yuan for the medical expenses, which is quite a lot." Mother Du looked distressed and said, "Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you. I need to ask the doctor about the situation. If Lu Zhou doesn't wake up, then my Xiaoyun's marriage to the Lu family will be impossible."
"He was doing well before, but you forced him to marry you. Now he's injured, and you want to break off the engagement. Are you even a human being?" Zou Zhou was really angry. She thought her own mother was outrageous enough, but she didn't expect that there was an even more disgusting mother, Du.
"What else can I do? If he never wakes up, will my daughter have to suffer the consequences for her whole life? That doesn't make sense!"
After saying that, Du's mother took her bag and left.
As for the two little girls, she didn't care about them. Not entirely, but mainly because this matter had nothing to do with her. She didn't push Lu Zhou, so it was Lu Zhou's fault that he fell. If she said so, Lu Zhou should have agreed to get married earlier, and this wouldn't have happened.
…
"That's too much! What kind of person is this? She's harming others like this. Look at her..." Zou Zhou was almost vomiting with anger. "Erhe, why is she so annoying? Is there no way to deal with her?"
Erhe had actually been thinking about this problem just now. If it was a problem at the legal level, it would be easy to solve. The person who broke the law could be arrested directly. What she feared most was this kind of problem that did not touch upon the law but involved morality. Someone was selfish and morally corrupt, but the law could not punish her. What should she do?
Just like Zou Zhou’s biological mother, who was so mean to Zou Zhou, the law can’t do anything about her, right?
Now it’s Du’s mother again.
What she did was disgusting, but she didn't break the law.
"Let's go first. This matter can't be solved in a few words."
"Um."
After they left the hospital, they were still sighing about this matter. Anyway, Lu Zhou was just unlucky. If Du's mother had a better attitude and admitted her mistake, they would have felt better. But now... it really made people indescribably angry.
"Erhe——"
The two of them were riding their bikes when they suddenly heard someone calling them.
Erhe turned around and saw Du Ruoyun. She was carrying a thermos bucket and ran over quickly when she saw them.
Erhe stopped his bike, glanced at the thermos she was carrying, and asked uncertainly, "Are you here?"
"Yes, I came to see Lu Zhou." Du Ruoyun seemed embarrassed and clenched her hands. "Do you know about his situation too? It's all my fault. I should have stopped my mother, but I couldn't. As a result, Lu Zhou ended up like this."
"Your attitude is pretty good. You have a conscience." Zou Zhou was so angry at Du's mother that he felt a pain in his liver. He finally heard Du Ruoyun say a few reasonable words, and he felt a little relieved.
Du Ruoyun lowered her head and bit her lip.
She has always been like this, timid and not outgoing.
Erhe understood. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "So what are your plans for the future? We just ran into your mother in the hospital. Your mother's attitude... I have no right to stand for it. If I were a member of the Lu family, I would have torn her mouth apart long ago."
"I'm sorry, did she say something nasty again?" Du Ruoyun was also embarrassed. "It's all my fault for being too weak. She wouldn't listen to anything I said."
"I'm glad you understand. So what explanation do you plan to give to the Lu family this time?" Erhe stared into Du Ruoyun's eyes.
On the one hand, she knew that Du Ruoyun was actually innocent. If Lu Zhou really couldn't wake up, but she had to be tied to Lu Zhou, it seemed unfair to her.
But you reap what you sow. This was caused by Du's mother, and Du Ruoyun was too weak. If she had been tougher and asked Du's mother not to interfere, perhaps this tragedy would not have happened.
Therefore, no matter who you are, you should pay the price for your choice.
No matter the result is good or bad!
When they were at their peak, you rushed to give your daughter to them. Now that they've been harmed by you, you want to kick them out. Do you think your family has taken all the good things in the world? How can this be justified?
Although Erhe didn't say it explicitly, Zou Zhoufuzhi suddenly understood something and said, "No matter what, Lu Zhou became what he is today because of your mother. You should at least take good care of Lu Zhou."
Du Ruoyun's face turned red and white, and her hands were clenched tightly together. "Don't worry, I will. I have thought about it. I will take good care of him until he wakes up. If he never wakes up, I will take care of him for the rest of his life."
