Chapter 133 Call the Police
Chapter 133 Call the Police
Su Yiran sat on the hammock, covered with a thin blanket, gazing at the sky and the moon, facing the moonlight.
Listen to the sounds of nature.
Su Yiran found that she really liked this feeling.
The crying continued intermittently throughout the night, repeating itself about five or six times.
During this time, Su Yiran went down to check on the situation. The old woman said it was nothing and told her to go back and rest. She also told her to close the doors and windows so that the noise wouldn't reach them.
I had only heard that newborns were difficult to raise, but after seeing it in person, I can confirm that they really are.
Su Yiran woke up early and, seeing He Rui still fast asleep beside her, didn't disturb her and quietly got out of bed.
After she finished washing up, she came downstairs and saw the old woman's daughter, Ayu. She nodded to her and said, "Thank you for last night."
"It's just a little effort, you're welcome."
Su Yiran shook her head, glanced in the direction of her room, and then looked at her. "You don't look well. Your daughter is asleep. You should also get some rest. Only when Mom is healthy can she take good care of the child."
"it is good."
Ayu nodded, then suddenly heard a noisy argument outside.
Ayu frowned. "Why is he here!"
She turned to leave.
"Who's coming?"
Su Yiran called her over.
"...Who else could it be but the child's father."
Ayu said, "I knew he would come after me when I took his daughter back to her parents' house. He's shameless!"
"Let me first..."
Su Yiran opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly noticed the bruises on her hand. She grasped her hand, her brows furrowing. She pulled up her sleeve, and the marks on it made her gasp. "What happened? Did he hit you?"
"I, I'm fine."
Ayu lowered her head and pulled her hand back. "My mother is old. Could you please not tell her?"
"I will not say."
Su Yiran looked at her and said, "But you're still in your postpartum period and can't go out."
Ayu refused, "My mother is still outside, she's old, I..."
"Don't worry, your mother will be fine."
Su Yiran looked at Ayu and asked, "I only have one question for you now: what are your plans for the future?"
“Divorce is not an option. That family is sexist and favors sons over daughters. Even if I swallow my anger, they will never treat my daughter well. It’s better to get a divorce than to live like that. I don’t want my daughter to be hurt.”
"Okay, you stay in the room, take good care of your daughter, and then call the police and explain the situation in detail."
"……it is good."
Ayu met Su Yiran's gaze, and although she didn't understand, she still did as she was told.
Outside.
Ayu's husband brought his elders to her parents' home to cause trouble, but Gu Jing stopped them at the door.
The neighbors heard the commotion and came over.
"Who do you think you are? This is my home too. It's none of your business to tell me what to do when I'm at home!"
In his arrogance, the other party said, "Oh, so you're the one my wife was cheating on me with."
"You bullshit!"
The old woman couldn't stand others slandering her daughter, who was born to her when she was over forty years old and had been pregnant for ten months.
She wouldn't allow anyone to ruin her reputation.
The old woman picked up the hoe next to her and was about to send the person away.
However, being over seventy years old, he was no match for a young man in strength, and with a push, the other person knocked him to the ground.
"You old bastard, I knew you looked down on me! You're the one who encouraged my wife to cheat on me!"
The other party was still not satisfied and smashed a wooden stick down.
"Grandma!"
That blow would surely be too much for the old woman to bear.
Without thinking, Su Yiran intended to push the old woman away, but it was too late. She stood in front of the old woman, and the wooden stick fell heavily on her back.
"Girl?"
The old woman stared in shock at Su Yiran in front of her.
"I'm fine..."
Su Yiran shook her head, but her body swayed precariously, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"lady!"
Gu Jing's face turned pale. He rushed over and helped the person up. Seeing the cold sweat on the other person's forehead, he shouted, "Doctor! Is there a doctor?!"
"Yes, yes, help them into the room first, I'll go find the old doctor."
Those watching the commotion realized something was wrong and rushed to fetch a doctor.
The person who hit the other knew he had made a big fuss, so he cursed a couple of times and tried to run away.
The police arrived promptly. "Who called the police?"
"I signed up."
Ayu saw the man hitting someone from upstairs and couldn't help but rush out.
……
That man used force when he struck that blow.
Su Yiran felt a burning pain coming from her back.
The room was empty. She looked at Gu Jing and said, "Don't tell Mr. Gu about this."
Gu Jing lowered his eyes. "You know I can't do it."
“He has injuries that have only just begun to heal. If he finds out, his injuries will likely become even more difficult to heal. At least for now, we shouldn’t tell him.”
Su Yiran said, "Of course, if you don't care about his health and want to say whatever you want, I can't stop you."
Gu Jing didn't say anything. When the doctor came over, he left the room.
The doctor was applying medicine to her inside; no one was waiting outside.
The old woman couldn't stand it anymore. "You're her husband. Aren't you going in to be with her at a time like this? Are you even a man?"
Gu Jing said softly, "I'm sorry, I'm not."
"What do you mean no? You both have children, so..."
"Mom, Mom, the baby should be awake by now. Go down and check on him for me. I'll stay here and watch over him."
Ayu sent her grandmother away.
She watched the person leave, then looked at Gu Jing and said, "I'm sorry, my mother didn't know the situation and misunderstood."
Gu Jing nodded slightly, glancing at the time every now and then, his brows furrowing even more.
Are the doctors here any good?
Ayu patiently explained, "This is an experienced doctor here, very knowledgeable, so don't worry."
Gu Jing's brows never relaxed for a moment. His eyes darted around, "What exactly happened? The police arrived at such a convenient time. Please tell me the truth."
"...It was your wife who told me to call the police."
Ayu briefly explained it.
Gu Jing listened, his face grim. "Do you know who she is? What would happen if something really happened to her!"
"Feel sorry."
Ayu lowered her head.
"Gu Jing!"
A voice came from inside the room, "Arui should be awake by now, go upstairs and check on him."
"lady!"
Su Yiran didn't want to listen to him, "Arui will be sad if he wakes up and can't see anyone."
"……Yes."
Gu Jing was reluctant, but he still went to find He Rui.
The old doctor applied the medicine and left.
Su Yiran finished dressing and went out to look at Ayu. "Don't take what he just said to heart. That's just how he is. He doesn't listen to anything. It's nothing."
"Are you...are you okay?"
Ayu said worriedly, "I know that kind of person; he hits really hard."
"It's alright. Plus, the old doctor just applied some medicine, so it's much better now. Don't worry."
Su Yiran smiled.
