Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 3034: Chapter 2970: Settling Accounts Separately

Then those people all rushed at Meng Sheng and started hitting him.

Meng Sheng was no match at all for that many people beating him up. After one of them swung a carrying pole and smashed the back of his head hard, he went down with a dull thud.

”Si Huzi and the others didn’t help?”

”They only got there after Big Brother Meng had already been hit. By then it was too late. And the two people Si Huzi brought were timid—once they saw what was happening, they were scared stupid.”

Jiang Xiao pressed her lips together and didn’t say anything more.

They went to the nearest hospital and sent Meng Sheng in.

”Old Luo, go find a phone and tell Grandpa what happened, have him call the police. And take those two girls to the public security office so they’ll give a proper statement!”

Jiang Xiao would never let those people get away with the responsibility they should bear.

And those two boys—she was going to track them down no matter what!

One thing at a time; each of them would be held to account!

Luo Yongsheng nodded and walked out.

Jiang Xiao and Wang Lili waited outside the emergency room. Wang Lili’s tears just wouldn’t stop.

She didn’t want to keep crying, but every time she thought of Meng Sheng lying in there in emergency, she just couldn’t control her tears.

But she knew Jiang Xiao had no patience for people crying, so she didn’t make a sound—she just kept wiping her tears away.

Jiang Xiao glanced at her, sighed, and handed over a handkerchief.

”Don’t bother returning it when you’re done.”

She had plenty of handkerchiefs.

At this time they still didn’t sell small packets of tissues everywhere, and even the coarse paper was pretty poor quality, so she bought a lot of white handkerchiefs. On some she’d drawn little orchids, peonies, and other flowers in one corner herself, and on some she’d drawn checks. After starching and washing them several times, they were very soft and looked nice too.

The one she gave Wang Lili now was a new one she’d taken out from the Space. She’d never even thought about getting it back after Lili used it.

”Thanks.” Wang Lili said nasally as she took the handkerchief, catching a faint, clean fragrance.

She wiped her tears dry, held the handkerchief in her fingers, and looked at Jiang Xiao.

”Jiang Xiao, you’re amazing at fighting. Weren’t you scared at all back then?”

If it hadn’t been for Jiang Xiao, she had no idea whether she would’ve even made it out of there today. She’d been terrified too.

Jiang Xiao shook her head. ”Don’t imitate my overbearing attitude. I’m only cocky because I know I can win. For you, showing weakness wasn’t wrong.”

Cocky because she knows she can win.....

After hearing that sentence, Wang Lili honestly didn’t know what she was supposed to say.

Just then, the door opened and the doctor came out. Wang Lili immediately rushed over.

”Doctor, how is he?”

”He’s lost a lot of blood, and the wound is pretty big—we put in four stitches. Didn’t you say he was hit with a carrying pole? How did it make such a big gash?” Normally, something blunt like a carrying pole shouldn’t have caused that kind of wound.

Jiang Xiao had grabbed that carrying pole earlier and taken a look, so she knew.

”There was a bit of sharp, broken edge on that pole.”

That carrying pole was probably already worn out and unusable.

With a broken sharp edge like that, smashing it down hard would be what tore open such a large gash.

In fact, if it hadn’t been for that gash bleeding so much, the townspeople probably wouldn’t have been so scared that they finally cooled down a bit.

So was that a good thing or a bad thing?

”They hit him far too viciously.” The doctor shook his head. ”Still, it’s fortunate the hemostatic medicine you used was pretty good. It would’ve been even better if you’d applied it a little earlier.”

Jiang Xiao also knew the hemostatic medicine she’d made was good.
