Chapter 886: Sad Farewell
At around eleven o'clock in the morning on the 18th, Uncle Liu drove a ox cart to Liu Jingxue's house to pick her up.
This is what Liu Jingxue had agreed to do when she went to Uncle Liu's house yesterday, asking him to come over at noon and take them to the town station.
If you leave at this time and arrive at the town bus station at around 2 o'clock, you can catch the bus to Xi City before 3 o'clock.
In preparation for today's trip, the aunt specially prepared lunch at around ten o'clock so that they could have lunch before setting off, so as to avoid missing lunch and going hungry without having lunch.
After moving the luggage onto the ox cart, Xie Yumei and her son were allowed to sit on it and cover themselves with blankets. As for the three siblings, firstly, there was no more room on the ox cart, and secondly, they felt that it would be more convenient for them to walk than to sit on the ox cart.
Worried about missing the time, after Xie Yumei put away the luggage and sat down with Xiaohu in her arms, the group set off.
Liu Jingxue locked the doors and windows and waited to catch up.
Her spiritual sense saw that over at the cowshed, Liu Weihua and Wang Xiulan were hiding behind the gate and they stuck their heads out to look over here.
Especially Wang Xiulan, who was still secretly wiping her tears, while Liu Weihua was whispering to comfort her.
Relying on Uncle Liu driving the car in front, Liu Jingxue didn't notice that she was waving over there.
If things go well, my uncle and aunt will probably be rehabilitated soon, and it will be much more convenient for us to meet again then.
Even if my eldest brother is not free, my eldest sister-in-law is a teacher and has winter and summer vacations. It would be fine to take Xiaohu to live with grandparents for a while during the holidays.
If they are worried that it is unsafe for the sister-in-law to travel alone with little tiger, they can also ask someone to give them a ride.
The brothers Liu Jianguo and Liu Jianjun turned their heads and looked back to see if Liu Jingxue had caught up. They saw her waving over there and knew that their parents must be watching, so they also waved over there.
Seeing the three siblings waving at them, Liu Weihua and Wang Xiulan also came out of the yard and waved back, regardless of whether others could see them or not.
When the three people and the ox cart were far away and about to turn onto the main road, Liu Weihua pulled Wang Xiulan.
"Okay, it's almost invisible, let's go in.
Don’t let the children leave feeling uneasy.”
"Let's just stand here and look over there. It won't be good if someone sees us."
You should know that during this period, occasionally some villagers came to see the doctor, but they asked Liu Jianguo and others to hide in the inner room so that the villagers could not see them.
Wang Xiulan remained standing there until Liu Jingxue and the others turned into the main road and no longer saw anyone. She refused to give up and continued to look over there.
"Wei Hua, do you think it's really possible for us to go back this year?" Wang Xiulan asked in a low voice.
It was fine when the family hadn't seen each other for such a long time before, but now that she has spent some time with her two sons, especially her eldest grandson, Wang Xiulan is even more reluctant to let them leave.
Even though their life here was pretty good, Wang Xiulan still wanted to see her son more often.
Looking at the sky, Liu Weihua felt relieved as he thought that the weather would be good today and tomorrow and it would not snow.
“The people who went to investigate us should be in place now.
We have done nothing wrong, and those frame-ups cannot fool anyone with a discerning eye.
We are not in a hurry, just wait patiently."
At this point, Liu Weihua deliberately joked, "I actually hope that the people who redress our wrongdoings can come a little later.
It would be best to wait until the ice here thaws before coming back, so we can take the opportunity to rest for a while.
Once I go back, I'm afraid I'll be busy and won't have much free time."
“Or, this time when you go back, don’t go back to work in the hospital, just retire directly.
You were very busy before, performing several surgeries a day, and you were more tired than me." Liu Weihua suggested.
Wang Xiulan rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm just in my early fifties, why should I retire?
My grandson is not around and doesn't need to help take care of the children. What am I going to do after I retire and stay at home every day? It would be so boring if I just play by myself.
It would be better to continue working in the hospital to kill time.”
"Then you can talk to your superiors and ask them to arrange a more open position for you so that you won't be so busy.
After all, I am old, not young anymore."
Seeing that Liu Weihua was old on the left and not young on the right, Wang Xiulan was not happy with it.
“Why, you dislike me because of my age now.
Why don't you look in the mirror? You are older than me."
"Look at me now. If I tell others that I am only 40 years old, no one would believe me."
I looked at my wife who had been using Xiaoxue special cream for more than two months. She looked so fair and tender. It was no exaggeration to say that she was forty years old.
“Yes, you are young, you are not old, it is me who is old.
But Xiaoxue and Jianjun haven't found a partner yet. Wouldn't it be better if you could take your work a little easier and spend more time finding partners for them?
If they get married, the next step is to have children.
Jianjun, you are the mother-in-law, don’t you care about your daughter-in-law during her confinement period?
Xiaoxue has lost her mother, and now she is giving birth to a child. Don't you, as her aunt, care about it?
If you don't care, her in-laws will think that Xiaoxue's family has no one left, and if you don't support her, they will definitely bully her.
If you are too busy at work, you won’t be able to ask for leave when the time comes.” Liu Weihua advised.
After listening to Liu Weihua's words, Wang Xiulan thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense.
"It's too early to talk about this now. It's still unclear whether we can go back.
But if I can go back, I will talk to my superiors and ask them not to assign too much work to me."
Thinking of what happened before the accident, Wang Xiulan couldn't help but complain,
"You said I worked so hard before, helping this and that, but what was the point? After this incident, everyone rushed to distance themselves from you, fearing that you would implicate them.
They want to throw more dirty water on you. No problem, they all want to create some problems for you."
Wang Xiulan sneered, "I have seen clearly the faces of those people. If I can go back, I will see if I will pay attention to them."
Liu Weihua pulled her to the courtyard and said, "Why are you angry? It's not human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm.
People like this should be kept away from now on.
Didn’t you say that there are still some people who remember your kindness, speak well of you, and plead for you?
Let’s hang out with these people more often in the future.”
Seeing that Mr. Zou and Mr. Wu had already entered the room and there was no one else around, Wang Xiulan lowered her voice and said to Liu Weihua,
"Didn't Mr. Zou tell you to work harder to climb up so that you can support Xiaoxue in the future? Then you told me not to work so hard."
“You are you, and I am me.
No matter how hard you try to move up in the hospital, you can only be the leader of a military hospital and you can't play a big role.
It would be better if you had more free time and took care of the family so that I can focus on my work.
My health has been restored and I no longer have the ailments I had before. I can work with greater peace of mind.
If I work harder, I might be able to go a step further before I retire, and at least I’ll have a bigger impact.”
Wang Xiulan raised her eyebrows and leaned close to Liu Weihua's ear, "If Xiaoxue and Mingxuan can really succeed, you won't have to work so hard."
Liu Weihua quickly shook his head upon hearing this, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "That's not right.
If Xiaoxue and Zhou Mingxuan can really succeed, then I will have to work harder and not let Xiaoxue be looked down upon by her in-laws."
Looking around the room, Liu Weihua whispered, "The men in the Zhou family are fine, they are all in the army, there are no twists and turns.
But judging from what Mr. Wu said every day, his daughter has been spoiled since she was young.
After marrying into the Zhou family, she became the eldest daughter-in-law. Her husband was capable, respected by everyone, and everything went well for her.
If Xiaoxue really married Mingxuan, with such a mother-in-law, and the Zhou family's status and position are higher than ours, although Xiaoxue has done a favor to his family, how long can this favor protect her?
Mingxuanzhi is not interested in the army, and his future achievements may not be as good as those of his elder and second brothers.
It is said that a woman's status in her husband's family is determined by the man.
If our Liu family doesn't work harder, do you want Xiaoxue to be bullied by her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law in the future?"
Wang Xiulan snorted coldly when she heard this, "If they want to bully Xiaoxue, they have to see if they have the ability to do so.
Xiaoxue alone can defeat the entire Zhou family.
But we are civilized people and we don't resort to violence to suppress others.
Even if she doesn't use her martial arts skills, who would dare to underestimate Xiaoxue's ability to make medicine?
But what you said is not completely unreasonable. You and Jianjun need to work harder and not let the Zhou family look down on you."
"You've talked so much with Jianjun these days, why didn't you tell him this just now?
Go write a letter later, write all these words in it, and ask Xiaoxue to send it to him someday." Wang Xiulan urged.
Seeing that his plan worked and made his wife forget the sadness of parting, and her mind and eyes were occupied by other things, Liu Weihua smiled.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want."
