943 Render Help Wherever Possible
Xia He did not know Zhou Shuang's family situation and whether she had anyone to accompany her or take care of her. However, based on what Sun Juan said, there was probably no one else at home.
Among the three women, Feng Hong was the only one who was doing quite well. However, Feng Hong's husband often stayed out and did not go home. Zhou Shuang had even seen Feng Hong's husband hugging another woman outside. Feng Hong was aware of all these. Every time Feng Hong's husband came home, he would behave like he loved Feng Hong very much. He probably felt a sense of guilt towards Feng Hong.
Fortunately, her son was quite capable and his results had always been excellent. His teacher even said that he would be able to enter the university! For the sake of her son, she would endure everything and she did not want him to know about what was happening between her and her husband. It would not be too late to get a divorce only after her son went to university.
Everyone had their own problems when it came to their families. Every family had its own difficulties. That was why they always looked at Li Gui with awe. It was really rare for a woman to be brave enough to get a divorce in this era, especially since Li Gui still had to take care of four young children alone.
What exactly happened? Why are the two of you so seriously injured? You were fine when you headed home yesterday, Xia He asked curiously.
Sun Juan told Xia He everything that happened at Zhou Shuang's house. Xia He looked at Sun Juan in shock and was rendered speechless. This was such an unexpected disaster!
Su Yang had beaten up other people randomly for his own selfish reasons and even robbed them! This was a very serious matter! He must be severely punished!
Then have you made a police report? Xia He asked with a frown.
Xia He did not know what to do at that moment. She still had to discuss the countermeasures with Qiao Mei. Any casual decision she made now could put Qiao Mei in a difficult position.
Qiao Mei asked me to give you this as she can't come and visit you. Here's 100 dollars, 50 dollars each for you and Zhou Shuang. Take it as a token from her. It's late and I should go back now. I'll come and see you again tomorrow morning. Xia He smiled and put the money in the drawer. She ignored Sun Juan's refusal and ran out.
Xia He knew that if she had given the money to Sun Juan directly, Sun Juan definitely would not accept it. She had to do it in such a way that Sun Juan could not reject her. Although the women had earned some money in the past half a month, the medical fees would still be quite a heavy burden on them. Moreover, they had to pay for all three meals at the hospital every day, so it would be good to render help to them whenever possible.
She went to Zhou Shuang's ward and stood outside the door to take a look. Zhou Shuang was still lying unconscious on the bed and Feng Hong was wiping her down. Xia He did not go in and turned around to go and discuss with Xia Fang on whether she could be of any help in this matter.
Aunt, are you still busy? Xia He smiled as she pushed open the door.
Xia Fang lay on the sofa tiredly and said, I'm not busy, but I have to go and check on the patients' vitals every once in a while. How's the thing you need to handle? Have you settled it?
No, I still have to discuss it in depth with Qiao Mei. There are too many issues involved, Xia He said with a sigh.
By the way, do you know that Xia Wen has moved back to your mother's place alone? Xia Fang said.
Xia He said in shock, When did this happen! I don't know anything!
Recently, they all had too many things to do and everyone was overwrought. Xia Wen faced pressure from his family, Xia He was troubled by the changes in her job, and Qiao Mei had to handle all these everyday issues. Everyone had their own problems, but they all looked out for one another and did not want to cause any more trouble than necessary.
I think it's something recent. I also heard about this from your second aunt-in-law. Do you need my help with this matter you're facing at the hospital? The director of the orthopedics department is my husband's relative, Xia Fang asked.
Xia He shook her head and said, There's probably no need for that for now. I still have to go back and talk to Qiao Mei. I can't make the decision on this matter.
How's Qiao Mei's health recently? Does she feel any discomfort? After you go back, persuade her to come to the hospital for a checkup. She's almost due. Otherwise, we can get a VIP single room for her at the hospital, Xia Fang said worriedly.
