Volume 1: Reborn in the 1980s, selling lunch boxes with my mother Chapter 132 "The Chosen Mouth Substitute" Falls from the Sky
When He Chunling heard that her mother and brother were beaten so badly that they had to be hospitalized, she became so angry that her eyes turned red.
Jiang Tian happened to be trying out some new dishes at her uncle's place today. She heard that He Chunling's mother was beaten and seriously injured, so why would she try out any new dishes?
Tong Zhiyuan decided to help her to the end, and stepped on the motorcycle, asking He Chunling to get on quickly.
Motorcycles are fast, and it only takes ten minutes to get from here to the county hospital.
Jiang Tian also wanted to go over and take a look, but Hu Qiongfang was worried, so her second uncle Hu Jianjun came out pushing a bicycle.
"I'll take Tiantian to the hospital on my bike. Chunling is still a child after all, and she doesn't have much money. If her mother's condition is not good, our family can still give her some money first."
He Chunling is a good child with backbone. Her second uncle likes her very much. He is not afraid to lend money to He Chunling. This child is ambitious. As long as she is not married off randomly by her family, she will have a bright future.
Tong Zhiyuan often came to the county town and was very familiar with the roads there. He drove through the streets and alleys and drove into the People's Hospital in just ten minutes.
It was already the next day when he heard the news. The person was sent in for emergency treatment the night before, but because He Zhiyong was reluctant to hire a car, he borrowed a tractor from the village and drove to the county hospital after a bumpy ride of nearly two hours. When he arrived there, Yao Huifen was hanging on to her last breath.
The hospital worked on the rescue all night and finally brought the patient back from the brink of death.
But he was still lying inside and was not completely out of danger yet.
None of the He family members were at home, and only He Zhiyong was guarding his son's bedside.
This man! He actually abandoned his seriously injured and dying wife and only cared about his son's life and death?
He Chunling clenched her teeth, wishing she could kill him with a knife!
He Zhiyong hadn't slept all night and his eyes were bloodshot. Hearing the noise, he looked up and saw He Chunling standing at the door of the ward with a ruddy face. Suddenly, he felt a surge of anger and rushed over with his fists clenched.
"What are you doing?" Tong Zhiyuan pushed away Hu Qiongfang who was protecting He Chunling, blocked He Zhiyong's fist with one hand, and pushed him aside.
"Who are you?" He Zhiyong glared at him fiercely. Noticing that Boss Tong was wearing a magnificent military coat, he couldn't help but say in a timid tone, "I'm beating up my own daughter. You're an outsider, don't meddle in other people's business."
Tong Zhiyuan immediately laughed: "If you want to beat the kid, go home and beat him. This is a hospital. If you dare to touch the patient's family again, I will call the police to arrest you, do you believe it?"
When He Zhiyong heard the words "call the police", he immediately wilted.
He was almost arrested by the police last night.
The hospital still refused to let the police take him away, saying that Yao Huifen was still being rescued and if anything went wrong, the family's signature would be needed. If they took her away now, the police station would have to escort her over when they asked for her signature later, which would be very troublesome.
The police station also thought that since He Zhiyong’s wife and children were in the hospital for critical care, he would not run away, so they asked him to wait in the hospital.
But before he left, the police station also warned him to make his own decision. If a rural man quarreled with his wife at home, as long as he did not report it to the police, they would not do anything. But if someone died, no matter if it was his wife or not, if he killed someone, he would be jailed and shot!
He Zhiyong was worried that the police station would really arrest him and put him in jail. After being threatened by Boss Tong, how could he dare to attack He Chunling?
However, if I can’t hit you, I can at least curse you, right?
He Zhiyong glared at his eldest daughter, scolding her for being unfilial and a troublemaker.
He also blamed He Chunling for his wife and son being beaten and hospitalized.
If He Chunling hadn't been restless and wanted to go against her family, why would Yao Huifen steal the money from home and send it to her?
If she didn't steal the money from the family, why would he beat his wife for no reason?
After all, it's all the fault of He Chunling, the unfilial daughter!
When his wife gave birth to this rebellious girl, he should have listened to his mother and just thrown this money-losing thing into the toilet and drowned her!
He Chunling was so angry that she laughed.
"My mom stole money from home? You're kidding! That money was saved by my mom and I from picking up Prunella Vulgaris and selling it bit by bit!"
Why would He Zhiyong give money to his wife?
Every penny he earned was counted as a penny. Didn't he just give it all to his mother?
If her grandmother had not been stingy and refused to give money to her mother, Yao Huifen would not have gone to the wild to pick summer cypress and sell it in the summer with the temperature exceeding 40 degrees Celsius.
She was reluctant to spend any of the money from the sales, and secretly saved it all. She had originally thought that for this year's New Year , she would buy a few feet of new cloth to make two new cotton-padded jackets for her sister and brother.
After He Chunling found out about this, she followed her mother to pull up summer cypress a few times.
In the middle of summer, the mother and daughter were so hot that they had prickly heat all over their bodies. They worked hard to save up a dozen dollars, so how did it become He Zhiyong's money?
He Zhiyong stiffened his neck and said , "Since your mother married into our family, all the money she earns belongs to our He family!"
He Chunling was so angry that she was shaking all over and couldn't utter a word.
At the critical moment, the "chosen mouthpiece" fell from the sky.
Jiang Tian leaned on the door frame, gasping for breath while helping her old classmate fight back.
"Oh, yes, yes! Chunling, I think your father is absolutely right!"
"Why should a family be divided so clearly?"
"Your dad said that since your mom married into the He family, every penny she earned belongs to the He family. That's right~"
"Think about it from another perspective. The He family's money is also your mother's and yours."
"Look at you, why don't you understand your father's painstaking efforts?"
"Your mother and your brother are lying in the hospital and they are in urgent need of money. What can you do with the ten dollars your mother gave you?"
"Hurry up, go home and sell the house and land! Sell the chickens, ducks, pigs and cows at home, and rescue the people first."
"If this is not enough, I still have a few hundred dollars. Just write me an IOU and I'll send it to you this afternoon."
"By the way, you are still young and don't have a formal job. I don't feel comfortable writing your name on the IOU. So, why don't you write your father's name? Isn't he the head of the family? He must be responsible for paying back the money owed by the family."
These words made He Zhiyong look pale.
The other two patients' family members in the ward couldn't help laughing.
Whose child is this? He is so good at talking.
He Chunling's brain was very quick. She was just mad at her father's shamelessness and didn't react for a while.
Inspired by Jiang Tian's words, He Chunling immediately searched through several pockets of her body, found a handful of banknotes, and put them all under her brother He Chunsheng's pillow.
She even pretended to apologize to her father——
"Dad, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
"You are right, you are the head of our family."
"Don't worry, just look after my mom and my brother in the hospital. Don't worry about the medical expenses. I'll go home right now and sell all the chickens, ducks, pigs and cows at home to raise the money!"
"If it's really not enough, I'll borrow money from Aunt Hu and Tiantian's uncle!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely not treat myself as an outsider this time. I will definitely write your name on the IOU!"
"Pfft~" The young nurse who was giving the patient an injection almost laughed so hard that she dropped the needle.
