Chapter 310: Chapter 310 Is It Limping

In the hospital.

Chiang Baoguo paced restlessly back and forth in the garden, while Song Xiyun, along with Chiang Caijiao and Chiang Lidong, watched him anxiously.

"Baoguo, let me take Caijiao and Dongdong back first! You know, with Baohe being a grown man and all, it’s not convenient for me to wait on him here, right? Besides, how can there be no one at home? Just yesterday, the pigs and chickens went unfed for a whole day, they must be starving."

Song Xiyun had wanted to go back for some time.

Everything in the hospital reeked of disinfectant potion, a smell she loathed.

Staying there meant she would have to help out, constantly running errands, buying porridge every day, fetching and pouring water for Chiang Baohe, and more. Why should she, just a sister-in-law, have to do all this?

Chiang Baoguo and Chiang Songtao spent their days sifting through information, or else they were asking questions of the hospital director, doctors, and nurses. Two days of this had passed, and they hadn’t even found that woman.

It was truly strange, for not a single person had seen that enchantress-like woman. Only Chiang Baohe kept wailing like a ghost or howling like a wolf, insisting vehemently that he saw her, not once but twice—and both times it was she had caused his injuries!

After two days of investigation, the hospital hadn’t turned up anything.

Besides, Chiang Baohe was a big man who ran out of his ward on his own and hurt himself. They were unwilling to take responsibility for that.

The doctors had already said it: his leg wasn’t healed, and they told him not to move around for half a month. Who let him run out in the middle of the night?

Now that his injury had worsened, the hospital didn’t see it as their problem.

"Go ahead, take them back first. Take good care of the house and don’t cause me any more trouble," said Chiang Baoguo, knowing it made no sense for the whole family to be hanging around here; he waved his hand to let Song Xiyun take the children home.

Song Xiyun was overjoyed and immediately extended her hand toward him, "Baoguo, give me some money then. Dongdong can’t walk that far, we’ll take an ox cart home."

Chiang Baoguo took out two yuan and gave it to her impatiently, "Make it last!"

"Just two yuan?"

"What, how much does an ox cart ride cost?"

Seeing him about to take the money back, Song Xiyun quickly withdrew her hand and, pulling Chiang Lidong along, ran outside, "Two yuan it is, we’re leaving! Remember to talk to mom about it."

Chiang Caijiao glanced shyly at Chiang Baoguo, then turned and hurriedly followed suit.

Up in the second-floor ward, Chiang Baohe was screaming hysterically.

"How many times have I said it, it was that bitch who harmed me! Why won’t you believe me! I won’t go back, I’ll wait for her here, I swear I’ll kill her!"

Chiang Baohe, sitting on the hospital bed, looked a mess. In just a few days, his face had turned a ghastly pale, with a piece of gauze on his nose and a scruffy beard on his chin. The remaining eye flickered with a mad glint, and as he yelled, he waved his arms about. The nurse on rounds kept a safe distance, not daring to come near him.

In these few days, Chiang Baohe had become a dangerous person in the hospital.

Female nurses who approached him would get harassed, and one even received a slap in the face that left her in tears, forcing her to take leave.

Now, the hospital itself couldn’t wait for him to be discharged.

"Baohe, staying here costs five yuan a day, where does our family have the money for this?" Chiang Songtao said sternly. "The doctors have already applied all the necessary medications and done all they could. Now, it’s all about recuperating. We could take care of that just as well at home."

Chiang Baohe immediately roared back, "Dad, who are you kidding?! Is this what you call ’all they could’? Don’t think I don’t know that you’re saying my leg’s completely useless now! I’m not leaving; unless they cure me, I will stay here for the rest of my life!"
