It's not uncommon to beat children. When those little monkeys start to make a fuss, they won't be able to suppress them until they're given a few blows.
But who would cut their child to death?
Even if Widow Zhao wanted to cleanse her house a few days ago, she would use wicker sticks that would hurt the skin but not the bones.
Miao Yulan was sent to the health center, Miao's mother...
She first went to the police station and verified that the letter of introduction was genuine. She also learned that the place where Miao Yulan went to the countryside was originally the Shili Brigade. She went the wrong way just because she could not read. As soon as she went out, she was waited for by Wang Hong outside. Carry it to the Women's Federation.
Euphemistically called: Helping female cadres in Nan Province educate backward elements!
In front of Director Wang, all petty thoughts have no effect. Director Wang specializes in dealing with all kinds of dissatisfaction.
Miao's mother never expected that she would come to ask for money so aggressively, but she didn't get any money. First she walked a long way and was chased by a girl wielding a kitchen knife. She was beaten and sent away again. Entered the police station and was given ideological education classes by the Women's Federation...
If she could do it all over again, she would never come here!
What she doesn't know now is that her ordeal is not over yet.
"Money? Why are you worrying about this?" Lin Nianhe sat on a hospital stool and shook his feet. "Whoever hurts you will pay for the medical expenses."
Miao Yulan slept drowsily for two days, and finally woke up.
In the past two days, the girls from the educated youth spots took turns to stay with her. Wang Hong also came to stay overnight. Today it was Lin Nianhe and Wen Lan's turn.
Wen Lan was sitting on the other side. He just yawned and then remembered something was wrong: "Hezi, if I slap her too, do I have to pay for it too?"
Sister Lan is not afraid of anything but losing money!
She still has to save money to buy a train ticket home!
Lin Nianhe took out a tin can from his bag, took out three orange candies, stuffed one into Miao Yulan's mouth, gave the other to Wen Lan, and ate one himself.
She said: "She used you to block the kitchen knife. You were acting in self-defense. What should you pay for?"
Wen Lan held the candy in her mouth and looked at Lin Nianhe hesitantly: "Then you..."
"What's wrong with me?" Lin Nianhe said confidently, "Aunt Wang is responsible for most of her injuries. If Aunt Wang pays for her, I will pay for it."
Wen Lan thought about it for a while, and it made sense.
Lin Nianhe looked at Miao Yulan, took out a pile of newspapers and two books from his bag, put them in her hands and said: "You wanted to read newspapers before, and I brought them to you. It's boring to just read newspapers, so I picked them out for you. Two books for you to read when you are bored."
Miao Yulan was startled and looked at the book Lin Nianhe placed in her hand in disbelief.
She saw the words "Red Rock" shining brightly on the book above.
These two books were not lent to Lin Nianhe by Su Yuncheng, they were just bought by her.
She didn't know what she was thinking, maybe... because it belonged to someone else, and she couldn't lend it to her.
Lin Nianhe didn't know that one of the two books she happened to pick was Miao Yulan's White Moonlight.
She tucked Miao Yulan into bed and said, "Aunt Wang asked me to ask you, what are you going to do about your family's affairs?"
After all, Miao's mother is not from the Shili Brigade, and Wang Hong can't really do anything to her.
It still depends on what Miao Yulan thinks.
Miao Yulan has been in the countryside for almost four years. She has not been beaten for a long time and feels much more relaxed. Only then did she dare to refuse the last time she asked for money.
Now this beating made her instinctive fear of her mother rise again in her heart.
When asked what she wanted to do, Miao Yulan trembled and retracted her hand that was stretched out towards the book.
Wen Lan frowned when she saw her like this: "What are you afraid of? I'd say you're just too cowardly. You're your mother. She doesn't even treat you as your daughter. Why are you treating her like your mother?"
Lin Nianhe pursed her lips and chuckled. She was silent for a moment, stretched out her hand to hold Miao Yulan's hand, and said, "That day when you were unconscious, I wanted her to leave quickly so as not to delay your treatment, so Aunt Li lied and said You were beaten to death..."
Miao Yulan: "...?"
"She also saw you when you were carried out unconscious that day, so if you want to get rid of it, you can actually die once."
Lin Nianhe blinked: "Anyway, your household registration is in the Shili Brigade. It's impossible for them to come often because of the high mountains and rivers. But you have to think clearly. If you do this, you may not be able to return to your hometown."
Lin Nianhe couldn't say that he would be able to take the college entrance examination in a few years, he could only tell her the reality before her.
"Home……"
Miao Yulan lowered her eyes and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
She rubbed the corners of the quilt and was silent for a moment before asking: "Nianhe, after four years of not seeing her, will the first thing your mother does when she comes in the door be complain and abuse?"
Lin Nianhe thought about Mother Lin and shook his head: "No."
Miao Yulan looked at Wen Lan again: "Wen Lan, will your brother beat you and scold you since childhood, and throw all the work at you?"
Wen Lan: "I don't have a brother."
Miao Yulan: "..."
Lin Nianhe couldn't hold it back anymore and burst into laughter.
She held down Miao Yulan's trembling hand and said sincerely, "You should ask Sister Shumei about this. She has a younger brother."
Miao Yulan took a deep breath and smiled bitterly.
She said: "Actually, there is no need to ask... I have always thought that girls are like this... I saw Aunt Wang divorced for her daughter, and I also saw that Aunt Li's little lotus was regarded as a treasure by the whole family... I should have understood a long time ago …”
Two lines of clear tears ran across her face. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears and said in a soft but firm voice:
"Then die once."
"Home...I've never had one."
If she had never seen the light, she could endure the darkness.
But when the black cloth of her self-deception was lifted, she realized that the outside world was not all like this, and she... couldn't stand it anymore.
Lin Nianhe reached out and patted the back of her hand: "Okay, Aunt Wang has gone to the police station today. I'll go and tell her. Don't worry about the rest and take good care of yourself."
Wen Lan nodded: "Well, yes, take good care of your health. You won't have to send food to them in the future, and you can live a good life yourself."
Miao Yulan twitched her lips and smiled the most relaxed smile in her life.
She said: "Nianhe, I want to change my name."
She wanted to change her name and completely break away from the past.
Lin Nianhe nodded: "Okay, what do you want to be called?"
Miao Yulan just suddenly had this idea, and for a while she really didn't think about what to call it.
She looked at the two people beside the hospital bed and asked, "How about you help me think about it?"
Lin Nianhe and Wen Lan looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Lin Nianhe had no talent when it came to naming.
But she is better than her because of her speed:
"Cuihua? Cauliflower? Little flower? Oh yes, we don't touch vegetation... What's that called Shufen? Shuzhen? Miao Goudan, what do you think? Huh? Miao Tiezhu?"
Miao Yulan: "..."
She felt that Lin Nianhe might want her to pretend to be real.
Even Wen Lan found the name Lin Nianhe thought to be unreliable.
She rolled her eyes at Lin Nianhe: "Girl, how can there be a girl named Tiezhu? How about Hongzhu?"
Miao Yulan: "..."
"What is Hongzhu? It sounds even worse to you... Hmm, Miao Xiaoxue? It sounds a bit like Wang Xue's daughter, let's forget it... We have to name it in the health center. How about you call me David Miao?"
"Miao Xiaowei, Miao Xiaowei, please sound nice!"
"Miao Shengsheng is pretty good, but it sounds a bit expensive. Why don't you change your last name to Zhou Shengsheng!"
"Why is your surname Zhou? Why don't I lend you my last name? You can call me Wen Sanshui."
"It's okay to call me Lin Mumu. You can also use my last name."
Miao Yulan: "..."
She wanted to call the doctor...oh no, she wanted to call the doctor.
