The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

The Old Madam was no longer staying at the county hospital; instead, she called Yang Erchou to return to the village, and on her way out, she took Yang Lao Mao with her.

According to her, she wasn’t going to let Yang Lao Mao stay here and disgust her daughter.

By evening, the hospital said that two family members could come in to see the patient and help clean and tidy up the patient.

Anning said to the doctor, ”I’ll go.”

Zhang Xiangxiang also stepped forward, ”I’ll go in.”

The two were taken to change clothes and sterilized before they could enter the ward.

Once inside, Anning said to Zhang Xiangxiang, ”Let’s clean up Aunt first.”

Zhang Xiangxiang nodded.

Since they could only stay inside for half an hour, the two moved quickly.

Zhang Xiangxiang fetched some water to wash Yang Junni’s hands and feet, while Anning used a handkerchief to wipe off the dirty areas on her body.

When she saw Zhang Xiangxiang squatting down to bathe Yang Junni, she called out, ”An Xin, get me some medicine.”

Having traveled with Anning through so many worlds, An Xin hadn’t had much opportunity to be useful. Now her system space was practically overflowing with supplies, but Anning hadn’t used any. Finally, with Anning needing some medicine, An Xin quickly helped her find it.

”Alright, Ningning, I’ll get you some Revitalizing Pills.”

Anning and An Xin discussed, ”Half a Revitalizing Pill, with a pinch of Blood Clotting Pills powder.”

In an instant, a small syringe appeared in Anning’s hand, filled with liquid made from the Revitalizing and Blood Clotting Pills.

Anning inserted the syringe into the IV bottle cap and quickly injected the medicine.

Afterward, she put away the syringe and continued wiping Yang Junni’s body.

When Zhang Xiangxiang finished washing the feet, she said to Anning, ”Sis, my mom’s lying here unconscious and can’t eat anything, we can’t just keep her on IV fluids, can we try feeding her somehow?”

Anning thought for a moment, ”Let’s ask the doctor later, in cases like Aunt’s, they usually insert a feeding tube, and then you can give liquid food.”

Zhang Xiangxiang imagined the situation and felt like crying again.

It’s really too much suffering.

She held back her tears and quickly finished tidying up Yang Junni.

Anning too packed up, and the two of them came out.

As soon as they came out, Zhang Jianfang and the others crowded around, ”How is it? Did she open her eyes? Is there any awareness?”

Anning shook her head.

Zhang Xiangxiang burst into tears, ”No, nothing at all, when I washed her feet too hard, she didn’t even move.”

Zhang Jianfang quickly held Zhang Xiangxiang, ”Ning, let’s not cry, your mom will be okay, she will definitely get better.”

Zhang Xiangxiang sobbed on Zhang Jianfang’s shoulder, ”Dad, what if mom doesn’t get better? What will we do?”

Zhang Xiangshan turned away to wipe his tears secretly.

Anning then discussed with Li Cuixia and a few others, ”Mom, everyone staying here isn’t helping, and they don’t allow us in the ward, I think it’s better for two people to stay, and the rest to go back and rest, we can rotate tomorrow.”

”Okay.”

Li Cuixia nodded.

Zhang Xiangxiang said to Anning, ”Sis, you guys go back first, tonight Xiangshan and I will stay, and you can take over tomorrow morning.”

”Then you two stay.”

Anning went over and instructed, ”I’ll have your brother-in-law bring you a quilt later, take turns sleeping a bit tonight, Aunt is already this way, there’s no rushing it, you must take care of yourselves.”

”Yes, we know.”

Zhang Xiangshan agreed, ”Sis, you go back quickly.”

Anning and the others didn’t return to the village but went to their place in the county instead.

Once there, Anning and Li Cuixia tidied up the rooms, while Xiao Yuan started cooking.

After dinner, Anning prepared a quilt for Xiao Yuan to take to Xiangshan.

The next morning, Su Liang and Geng Shuhua returned.

As soon as they came back, they picked up Su Mingzhu and Su Mingyu.

Then Anning and Xiao Yuan went to the hospital to relieve Zhang Xiangxiang and Zhang Xiangshan.

When they arrived, Zhang Xiangxiang was having breakfast, and Zhang Xiangshan was nowhere to be seen.

After Zhang Xiangxiang finished eating, Anning said to her, ”You should go back first, my husband and I are here, you go home and get a good night’s sleep, and come back tomorrow.”

Zhang Xiangxiang didn’t decline, after breakfast, she hurried back.

After all, she still needed to discuss raising money with Zhang Jianfang.

Given the cost of staying in the ICU, it’s like spending money like water, thousands of yuan a day.

This is in the county hospital, if it was a provincial hospital or in the Capital, the cost would be even higher.

Zhang Xiangxiang needed to go back and ask how much money was left in Zhang Jianfang’s family and how many days they could afford for Yang Junni’s treatment.

After Zhang Xiangxiang left, Anning sat in the place closest to the ward and closed her eyes to sense Yang Junni’s condition inside.

After a while, she opened her eyes and smiled.

”The hematoma in her brain has been released.”

Smiling, Anning said to Xiao Yuan, ”The Revitalizing Pill is working, she should wake up tomorrow.”

Xiao Yuan breathed a big sigh of relief, ”Once she’s awake, it’ll be much easier.”

While they were keeping watch at the hospital, they were unaware that the Old Madam had actually accomplished a big task.

The Old Madam stubbornly dragged Yang Lao Mao to the civil affairs bureau to file for divorce.

Initially unwilling, Yang Lao Mao was scolded and threatened by the Old Madam. She threatened to reveal all of Yang Lao Mao’s disgraceful deeds over the years and file for divorce, as long as Yang Lao Mao wasn’t afraid of the embarrassment, he could keep dragging it on.

Yang Lao Mao was genuinely frightened, and had no choice but to go with the Old Madam to file for divorce.

At the civil affairs bureau, the staff processing divorces had never seen an elderly couple like them get divorced and almost treated them like a spectacle.

Some even advised the Old Madam, ”You’ve spent most of your life together, why not endure a little longer? If you really can’t stand living with the master, maybe you can just live separately...”

The Old Madam started to cry, recounting all the hardships she had suffered since marrying into the Yang Family.

She talked about how Yang Lao Mao’s mother bullied her, prevented her from eating or drinking during her confinement, and how she was driven out of her room during postpartum, left in the ice and snow for a long time.

And how she was beaten and scolded, how Yang Lao Mao mistreated her when she was young, and how Yang Lao Mao had questionable interactions with a young widow in the village. She recounted everything she could.

”I have endured for a lifetime, and I should keep enduring, but now I can’t stand it anymore, if only you knew, this old thing has caused my daughter...”

The Old Madam pointed at Yang Lao Mao and cursed, revealing how after their own daughter passed out, he ignored her for the sake of protecting their grandson.

”You tell me, I tolerated his mistreatment, but when he harms my daughter, how can I endure? Anyway, my life is irreconcilably against his; it’s either him or me. When alive, I will not see him, and in death, we won’t be buried together.”

The Old Madam really knew how to talk, vividly recounting, causing several young ladies processing the paperwork to start crying.

”Ma’am, we’ll process it for you, someone like that should definitely be divorced, hurry and divorce.”

Meanwhile, Zhang Xiangshan asked a few good classmates to help locate where Yang Fugui was hiding.

Indeed, Zhang Xiangshan had a very close classmate whose uncle was quite familiar with Yang Fugui and knew where Fugui usually hid. He told Zhang Xiangshan.

Zhang Xiangshan then reported this information to the police, and they quickly dispatched officers, successfully capturing Yang Fugui.
