Chapter 47 My Educated Youth Husband is Gone and Never to Return
Chapter 47 My Educated Youth Husband is Gone and Never to Return
The captain was helpless against Zhao Guangming for the time being.
We can only go and check on Zhao Xiu's situation first.
"Li Min, go check on Zhao Xiu and see how she is doing?"
Li Min entered the room and saw that Zhao Xiu was still lying on the bed, and seemed to be in the same position as in the morning.
Li Min approached, "Zhao Xiu, Zhao Xiu, wake up."
Zhao Xiu remained silent.
Li Min touched Zhao Xiu's forehead. He no longer had a fever, but his body felt sticky, indicating that he had sweated a lot.
"Captain, Zhao Xiu's fever has subsided, but she can't be woken up."
There's definitely something wrong with this person that you can't wake up.
"I'll go call Lao Jiang and take these two to the hospital. I'll take Zhao Guangming there too; I want to see if he's injured."
Zhao Guangming and Zhao Xiu were taken to the hospital together.
Zhao Guangming genuinely felt like he was dying from the pain, and this time he didn't refuse to go to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor couldn't find any injuries on Zhao Guangming's body. He said the pain was unbearable, but his hands and feet were moving freely, and there was no broken bone.
Finally, they gave me two painkillers.
The captain watched Zhao Guangming's performance and realized that he would do anything to avoid going to the fields.
Even though the doctors said he was fine, he insisted that he was injured and never forgot to act out his pain.
People come and go in the hospital, and he doesn't seem to care about losing face, even though he's an old man.
With such a dedicated performance, even the captain couldn't bring himself to let him go to the fields.
Even when they get out of bed, they can still crawl and writhe on the ground, crying out in pain all over.
However, the situation on Zhao Xiu's side is not so optimistic.
He had a high fever last night and should have been brought here sooner. Now he's delirious and unconscious. If it gets worse, his brain might be damaged, and he might not wake up.
The captain left Zhao Guangming at the hospital to take care of his sister.
The captain thought Zhao Guangming was faking illness. Since he didn't want to get out of bed, he should take care of the patient.
The main reason why Zhao Xiu's condition became so serious lies with Zhao Guangming.
His sister fell into the water, and he didn't even bother to put his clothes on her. He walked back in wet clothes, exposed to the cold wind.
When they found out he had a fever that night, they didn't care about his sister.
The Zhao siblings were left in the hospital.
When Jiang He returned home that evening, she heard news about the Zhao siblings.
This afternoon, the brigade leader made quite a fuss because Zhao Xiu was unconscious, and he had to find several women to carry her onto the tractor.
The aunties could tell how much sweat Zhao Xiu had put in the night before just by touching her clothes.
Moreover, there were wet clothes next to Zhao Xiu, covered in moss, and dried moss on Zhao Xiu's hair.
It's obvious that he fell into the ditch.
The girl fell into the ditch, and Zhao Guangming, as her older brother, didn't even care. He only cared about whether he had eaten. He really has no conscience.
Moreover, at the hospital, the doctor said that Zhao Guangming was not injured at all.
Isn't this just Chun Chun trying to shirk responsibility?
That Zhao Xiu is pitiful; he's still unconscious, probably because his brain was damaged by the fever, and that's how he'll be from now on.
Recently, everyone in the Dayang brigade has been talking about the Zhao siblings.
Although Zhao Xiu was disliked before, people will sympathize with her now that this has happened.
Therefore, all the blame was directed at Zhao Guangming.
Zhao Xiu really won't wake up. We need to send Zhao Xiu back.
In fact, Zhao Xiu was already conscious, but she couldn't open her eyes, speak, or move her entire body.
She could only hear other people talking.
She heard her brother cursing her over and over again at her hospital bedside.
Because of her, he was criticized by everyone.
What does her illness have to do with him? It's not like he made her fall into the ditch or caused her to catch a cold and get a fever. Why does everyone think it's his responsibility?
Her brother even asked why she didn't just drown in the ditch.
Her brother said he thought it was someone else, and that he would get some benefits for saving them. He didn't expect that he would save this worthless girl, and not only did he not get any benefits, but he also got himself into trouble.
Is that what her brother actually thought?
Her brother didn't want to save her.
I heard that many people felt sorry for her because a high fever turned her into a vegetable.
She is in a vegetative state; she cannot move or speak, just like a plant.
I heard that she was like this because her brother ignored her after discovering she had a high fever. It was only when the brigade leader found out that he sent her to the hospital; otherwise, she probably would have died in that educated youth compound.
Her brother really didn't want to save her; he didn't even care when she had a high fever.
Although she's practically dead now.
But she didn't die; she was conscious, just unable to move her body.
Maybe one day she'll be able to move again.
Hearing that she was leaving, that she was being sent home.
Going home? She can go home now?
She can leave here now, that's good.
She misses her parents.
It's so good to be able to go home.
Zhao Xiu was sent back.
Zhao's parents looked at Zhao Xiu, who had been brought back, with cold expressions on their faces.
They already knew about Zhao Xiu's situation. She was in a vegetative state and had come back to wait for death. What use was she coming back?
I don't know when my son will be able to come back.
Zhao Xiu was placed directly in the storage room, which was originally her spot.
Anyway, a person in a vegetative state is of no use.
They raised her all these years, and she's still not married and is asking for a dowry; now they want to take care of her too.
That's a huge loss.
Why didn't they just die over there?
If they really drowned in the ditch, they could still ask for a sum of money.
Just like my son said, he's more trouble than he's worth.
Whenever someone came to the door, Zhao's mother would bring the person out of the storage room and let her lie down in the living room.
I'll also braid her hair nicely and change her into clean clothes.
Everyone who comes here says how pitiful Zhao Xiu is, and how difficult it was for Zhao's mother.
After everyone leaves, Zhao Xiu will be sent back to that storage room.
Zhao Xiu especially hoped that someone would come every day so that her mother could clean her up and keep her clean.
Otherwise, they wouldn't care if she peed or defecated.
Every morning I would give her a bowl of some kind of soup or broth that I didn't know what it was.
It tasted awful, and she didn't want to eat it, but she couldn't resist, so her mother just pinched her mouth shut and forced it down her throat.
Moreover, this was the only time she ate during the day.
But no one will care about them forever. After a month, they will no longer care about Zhao Xiu.
Even when he came to the house, he would only say a few words to Zhao's mother before leaving.
Zhao Xiu never left that storage room again.
Zhao Xiu then remembered the question, "Why don't you just die already?"
Her brother said so, and so did her mother.
Her father never said a word to her.
She might as well have just died.
Why isn't she dead yet?
Zhao Xiu used to be very grateful that she was still alive, but now she only thinks about why she is still alive today.
She felt like her whole body was rotting and smelling bad; she was in pain and on the verge of collapse every day.
