Chapter 345 Disagreement with Aunt
Godfather Zhao Qishui stayed with He Shu in the hospital for a week before returning to Danhe. He will come again next month.
He Shu just lay on the bed, being served by someone, including being fed, wiped, and cleaning up his feces and urine.
Anyway, he had no privacy in front of these elders, including Xia Miao, so he just let go.
As the days passed, the wound on my stomach was gradually healing and I could move my legs a little more.
One day, my uncle was helping He Shu do leg exercises to prevent his muscles from atrophy from lying down for too long, when my aunt Qi Xue came.
Qi Xue entered the ward and saw that He Shu had recovered well, so she smiled and said, "How is it, nephew? Did your uncle take good care of you?"
Qi Zhijun glanced at her and continued to massage He Shu in silence.
"Aunt."
Qi Xue sat down beside He Shu's bed: "Does your body still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore, auntie, are you done?"
After his uncle brought the news, He Shu never heard anything about it again.
Zhou Zhensheng came back two days ago for a follow-up check-up and a change of dressings, and also brought Zhou He to see him once.
At that time, because Zhou He was going home with his mother, he kept talking to He Shu, and He Shu had no chance to ask Uncle Zhou.
"I'm done." Qi Xue took an apple from the bedside table, wiped it casually with her hand, and took a big bite.
"What about the saber?"
The incident is over, and it’s time for Ma Dao to be sentenced, right?
"The death penalty was carried out immediately. Yesterday afternoon, Saber was executed."
He Shu was stunned. Is Ma Dao dead? So quickly?
Qi Xue took another bite of the apple and rubbed He Shu's head with her other hand: "Don't worry about these things."
Qi Xue knew what Ma Dao and He Shu had agreed upon, but she didn't want He Shu to get involved in those people's affairs anymore.
On the one hand, she was afraid of traps and dangers, and on the other hand, Qi Xue felt that He Shu cared too much about Chen He and Ma Dao.
He seemed to be somewhat trapped, and Qi Xue was afraid that He Shu would be influenced by those people.
Ma Dao died so quickly that He Shu felt it was a little unreal for a moment.
But the case he was involved in was enough to warrant the death penalty.
After receiving this news, He Shu asked, "Aunt, is there anyone to help him collect Ma Dao's body?"
Qi Xue shook her head: "No, the court will handle it."
"Can I collect it for him? I want to help bury him after cremation."
Qi Zhijun had been massaging seriously with his head down, and when he heard this he said, "Why are you burying him?"
"I promised Saber that I would send him back home after he died."
Qi Xue felt something was wrong: "Is this what you agreed with Ma Dao?"
"Yes." He Shu did not hide it: "Ma Dao was willing to give me the evidence because I promised to send his ashes back to his hometown for burial. Aunt, you can't break your promise."
"Two different things. I don't agree."
He Shu was a little anxious: "Why?"
"You have to go to Nanzhan to deliver his ashes, right ? What's your condition now? How can you go?"
He Shu still insisted: "I can go after I'm well."
Qi Xue couldn't even eat an apple: "He Shu, it's right to be honest, but you have to be honest with someone. How many people have lost their families because of people like Ma Dao?"
"That's his business, and he has accepted the consequences of the law. But it's my business to send him home."
"you!"
Seeing that his nephew and his sister had a disagreement, Qi Zhijun said impatiently, "Okay, wait until you can stand up and walk before we talk about this."
Upon hearing this, Qi Xue glanced at He Shu and said nothing more.
"Then aunt, you have to promise me that you won't lose Sabre's ashes."
Qi Xue didn't want to argue with He Shuduo anymore. He hasn't recovered yet, and it would be unnecessary to argue with him.
After staying for a while, Qi Xue prepared to return to the Special Intelligence Bureau.
He Shu thought of something else: "Aunt, my brother Zhao Yan also helped me find the evidence this time. Can this be considered a meritorious service? Can we apply for a commutation of his sentence?"
"Little Wolf?"
"Yeah." He Shu looked at Qi Xue expectantly.
"Yes, I have already submitted it to the prison and the court. This is considered as reporting major criminal activities inside and outside the prison. After the court reviews it, he should be able to have his sentence reduced."
"Great, how long can it last?"
"It depends on how the court rules. I estimate it will be at least three years."
Three years? He Shu was very happy and wanted to tell his godfather the good news immediately.
"Okay, take a good rest. Auntie will come to you when she has time."
"Also, it's over now. When you recover, return to your normal life, go to school, and have a good relationship with your girlfriend. Don't worry about these things anymore, okay?"
He Shu agreed readily: "After I get better, I will finish what I promised Ma Dao and go to school well."
Qi Xue was helpless, but she didn't argue with him anymore, she stood up and said, "I'm leaving."
Qi Zhijun followed her out and stopped Qi Xue in the corridor.
"Otherwise, when He Shu gets better, I'll go with him."
Qi Xue was a little bit incredulous when she heard this: "You said you want to go with him?"
"Yeah, it's not like I haven't been to that place before. You wouldn't trust him to go alone, so it's okay for me to go with him, right?"
After every major operation, many strict regulations will be added. Who would continue to commit suicide now?
So whether it is Nanzhan, Dadu, or even other provinces and cities, they are relatively safe at present .
The reason why Qi Xue didn't let He Shu go was that she hadn't figured out whether someone like Ma Dao would care where he was buried after his death.
Qi Xue would not let He Shu rashly go for such a seemingly unreasonable thing.
"Brother, you really love that kid recently. I heard from our dad that you come here almost every day?"
Qi Zhijun was a little dissatisfied: "It's as if I didn't love him before."
Qi Xue smiled: "Forget it, let's wait until He Shu is fully recovered."
In fact, Qi Xue knew that her elder brother also wanted to retreat to the second line. Although this shock did not seem to cause any big disturbance outside, it invisibly frightened many people.
Although my eldest brother has never done anything illegal, he has offended many people in the past because of his overly tough character.
Qi Zhijun has always believed in doing the right thing and standing upright, but as he gets older, he suddenly realizes that many things cannot be fixed by rules and regulations.
"Sometimes, it is wise to retreat while the going gets tough. Brother, no matter what decision you make, I support you."
As siblings from the same mother and both being soldiers, Qi Xue felt that he could understand what his elder brother meant.
"I haven't thought about it that much." Qi Zhijun was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "I just feel that I'm not young anymore, and my physical strength can't keep up, so it's better to give the position to the younger ones."
"When I have some free time, I can train He Shu well, don't you think?"
The corners of Qi Xue's mouth twitched. It turned out that she had misunderstood.
Raise He Shu? She didn't look down on her elder brother, but she felt that he was not the kind of person who could raise a child.
What if he trained He Shu to be as stubborn as he was? What if he trained He Shu like a special forces soldier but only made him stronger but not smarter?
Isn’t it enough for the Qi family to provide a big piece of wood?
