Chapter 37: God has eyes
After returning the tableware, Shi Xiaoai hurried back home. When she opened the courtyard door, she found that Director Yu had probably tidied up the house.
She walked around the room and saw that several broken flower pots and water bowls were gone, and all the tables and chairs that had fallen to the ground had been lifted up. The ground was swept, and all the messy things were put back into place, except for the torn quilt.
But at this moment, Xiao Ai was not in the mood to find a quilt; she was in a hurry to cook.
After leaving the hospital, she went to the hotel and walked around. The journey took almost an hour, and it was nearly five o'clock. She was worried that if the two children woke up and started crying again, if they didn't recognize Cheng Yang, the man wouldn't be able to handle it.
As soon as Xiao Ai walked into the kitchen, there was a knock on the door: "Xiao Ai? Xiao Ai? Are you back? Open the door for me."
Shi Xiaoai recognized Aunt Liu's voice and quickly turned to the courtyard.
When she opened the door, she saw Aunt Liu standing outside, holding two thick quilts.
Shi Xiaoai quickly let Aunt Liu in and asked, "Auntie, why are you holding the quilt?"
Aunt Liu didn't say much to her and carried the quilt into the bedroom.
She put the quilt on the bed, stretched the sheets, and then replied: "If I don't get you two quilts, what will you cover yourself with at night? Your quilt is torn to pieces. I'll take it home and put it on again." I'll wash the seam; it will not be used in the next two days."
She patted the ones she had brought and explained: "I made these two quilts before Xiaofeng came back, but it was hot then, and she didn't touch them. Later, she went to her sister; no one had touched this quilt. Don't worry about covering it, don't dislike it."
Only then did Shi Xiaoai realize that Aunt Liu had taken her quilt away, and she quickly said gratefully: "Auntie, what do you say? It's too late for me to thank you. Why would I dislike it? You treat me like an outsider!"
Aunt Liu smiled and narrowed her eyes when she heard her talking so intimately.
She looked outside and said tentatively: "Of course, I regard you as one of my own. You and Xiaofeng are the same in my heart. You are both my biological daughters! But didn't Cheng Yang just come back this time? I and him. After all, we're unfamiliar, so I don't know if he would mind?"
Shi Xiaoai was slightly stuck, and then she remembered that her family seemed to have one more person from today on, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
But she couldn't show it yet, so she could only continue to smile: "He's not that particular."
Aunt Liu was even happier to hear what she said.
She walked closer and asked, "Is Cheng Yang in the hospital? How are Mingrui and Mingxi doing now? Are the two children okay?"
Only then did Shi Xiaoai tell Aunt Liu about the child's condition.
Aunt Liu was immediately angry!
She shook her fist angrily and cursed the whole family bloody!
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Shi Xiaoai wouldn't have believed that these mean words could come from Aunt Liu's mouth.
You must know that she has always been proud of being staff of the sub-district office. She considers the overall situation when speaking and doing things and casually uses clichés and official expressions.
Although Shi Xiaoai knew she was very kind to her, she still felt that this person was a bit fake and empty and that she could not be close to her.
At this moment, I saw Aunt Liu scolding the street angrily like an ordinary old lady in the alley because she wanted to vent her anger for the child——
She suddenly felt that the two people's souls were extremely close. Looking at this old lady was like seeing her biological mother!
Aunt Liu scolded Shi Laoer's family all over again, and she felt relieved when she was done with it.
Then she remembered her most significant purpose here.
She patted Shi Xiao Ai's arm and consoled her with a refreshed voice: "Xiao Ai, you don't have to be angry. I'm telling you, that family has already suffered retribution! The God has eyes. It's not that he won't retaliate." The time has not yet come!"
"Retribution? What retribution?" Shi Xiaoai was stunned by what she said.
The first reaction is——
Isn't Chen Min's speed too fast?
This is almost as fast as the dispatch speed of 110 police in later generations!
Aunt Liu grinned when she heard her question, with undisguised gloating on her face.
"You don't know, as soon as your uncle and I came back today before we even reached the entrance of the alley, we happened to encounter Niu Sanmei and her precious grandson being taken away by the police. Oh, you don't know how many people were watching! At that time, I was still confused, I didn't know what was happening, but I finally understood the situation after hearing Zhao Cuihong cry."
Aunt Liu clicked her tongue as she spoke: "You haven't seen that Zhao Cuihong was crying with snot and tears. Those who didn't know would have thought that her parents were all dead!"
The more she spoke, the meaner she became: "It's better to die. You can't do this things if your dead!"
Seeing her going further away, Shi Xiaoai had to speak out to pull her back: "When did the police come to take them away? Who were they taken, and where were they taken to? The security room?"
"It was just after noon. Those who came were not ordinary security guards but real police! It is said that they were all from the branch. Several people came, and they were taken directly to the police station.
I heard from onlookers that initially, they only wanted to take Niu Sanmei and her grandson away, but weren't they injured? Zhao Cuihong and Shi Yunpeng rushed to accompany them to the clinic for medical treatment. Now it's good; let the pot be served and all brought to the bureau. "Aunt Liu said with a beaming smile.
Aunt Liu's granddaughter was celebrating her 100th day today, and the couple went to her daughter's house early, so they didn't catch up on the morning's gossip.
They first saw the family being taken away and then learned the whole story from the neighbors.
When they found out, the old couple felt angry and regretful. They were angry that the second child and his family were not good people, and they regretted coming back late and couldn't help.
After Aunt Liu told Shi Xiaoai what she saw, she blamed herself and finally went into the house to help her cook a meal together.
But Xiao Ai was in a good mood then, especially after knowing the family had suffered retribution.
Although it is still time to crack down hard, based on the evidence collected by Chen Min, Shi Xiaomi believes that it is more accessible for this group of people to get in than to get out.
This trip to the police station, not to mention how many years the sentence will be, will at least give that dead older woman a good meal!
As for Shi Laoer's family, it was natural that they were going through a lot of stress.
I cooked the meal with Aunt Liu, and it was already dark when I rushed back to the hospital.
Xiao Ai walked anxiously along the way, afraid that the two children would be hungry when they woke up and worried they would cry when they couldn't see her.
When she reached the ward door, she paused momentarily and was relieved to hear that there was no crying inside.
Seeing her come in, Mingrui, still lying on the bed, raised an arm and shouted: "Mom!"
Xiaoxi, lying next to him, also raised her head and shouted aggrievedly at her: Mother!
Shi Xiaoai quickly agreed and walked in.
She put the bamboo basket on the table, reached out, touched her daughter's forehead to ensure it wasn't hot, and then looked at her son.
Meeting her gaze, Mingrui quickly shook his head: "Mom, I don't have a fever."
After saying that, he pointed to his side with a bit of embarrassment: "Can you move him away? I need to pee."
Only then did Shi Xiaoai realize that Cheng Yang was sleeping soundly on his side on Mingrui's hospital bed. He was not woken up by such a loud noise after her return.
Perhaps he was afraid he would squeeze Mingrui when he fell asleep, so he hugged the child tightly with both arms and protected him so tightly that the little guy couldn't get out even if he woke up.
Shi Xiaoai was funny and angry. She reached out and patted Cheng Yang's body and said, "Wake up, you're crushing Mingrui."
Mingrui frowned and said, "I've been calling for a long time, and he ignored me as if he couldn't hear me."
The smile on Shi Xiaoai's face suddenly solidified.
