Although her mother was weak at times and was bullied by her aunts, every time she was in danger, her mother would protect her. Her mother, who had always been gentle, would confront her grandmother because she was wronged.
This kind of motherly love moved Xia Wan.
She hugged Yan Han tightly, her eyes turning red. “Thank you, my mother.”
She was such a good mother, but in her previous life, she was killed by Xia Ru’s family. In this life, no one could touch her parents. She wanted to grow up with all her might so no one could bully her.
Just as the family was touched, discordant voices rang out in the corridor.
“I’m looking for my son, Xia Hai. Where is he?”
Xia Wan frowned. It was Li Jin’s voice.
Xia Wan looked at Xia Hai, who was lying on the bed, and asked solemnly, “Father, there’s an opportunity in front of you, an opportunity to split with the family. Are you willing to do so?”
Xia Hai saw the determination in Xia Wan’s eyes. He seemed to have thought of what she wanted to do. When his hand was injured, his mother, Li Jin, only wanted to take money from him. Hence, Xia Hai’s heart had long been soaked in ice water.
He sighed faintly. “Let’s do as you say and we’ll split from the family.” Yan Han’s eyes became determined. “This time, we must split!
Not only did Xia Hail s injury show her how cold and heartless her mother-in-law was, but Xia Wan’s medical skills were also very good. The hospital had hired her as a special instructor, and Li Jin and the others would definitely know about this in the future.
If they didn’t move out, Li Jin would use Xia Wan’s status to show off in the village. Even the money she earned would belong to Li Jin.
She couldn’t let her daughter live such a life. Her daughter was so outstanding; how could Li Jin restrict her?
The nurse stopped Li Jin outside. “Who are you? We have many patients in the hospital. Please keep quiet and don’t disturb the patients.”
Li Jin’s face was filled with disdain. “My son is a patient. I’m here to see him.”
Li Jin didn’t want to come at first. She was waiting for Xia Wan to come and beg her, but the village head knew about Xia Hails injury. The village head was a distant relative of Li Jin’s family, so he asked Li Jin and his family to come.
Li Jin was followed by the village chief, Xia Ru, Xia Ye, and their family. Everyone else had come besides Xia Yu, who was playing outside.
The nurse was still outside blocking the way, but Xia Wan had already opened the door. When she saw the village chief, she was a little surprised, but soon, she felt that he had come at the right time.
She squeezed out her tears and looked at Li Jin with a hurt expression. “Grandma, what’s the point of you coming over now? Dad’s hand is already useless. The doctor said that he was sent here too late. Even if the stitches are done now, he won’t be able to lift heavy objects in the future. He won’t be able to work anymore.”
“Grandma, Dad is your son too. Why didn’t you send him to the hospital immediately?”
At this moment, Yan Han also followed him out. Right now, she only wanted to protect her daughter, Xia Wan, and not let Li Jin bully her. And when she saw the village chief was also here, Yan Han’s courage increased.
“Mother,” Yan Han started. “I’ll tell you the truth now that we are in front of the village chief. Xia Hai was repairing the roof when you came to ask for money. You even said that you were going to search our house. You also said a lot of things to curse at Xia Wan. That was why Xia Hai was so angry and wanted to argue with you. It was because of this that he fell from the ladder.
“You clearly saw how much he was bleeding, yet you didn’t feel sorry for him. You even said that we were guilty and fell down on purpose to stop you from searching the house for money.
“Mother, Xia Hai has been so filial. Why do you keep thinking he’s so evil?
“If it weren’t for what you said, Xia Hai wouldn’t have fallen from the ladder, and his hand wouldn’t have been crippled. If he can’t work in the future, what will happen to the children and me? Mother, are you going to support us?”
Li Jin was shocked by Yan Han’s words, and subconsciously asked, “What? Xia
Hai can not work anymore? Then he can’t make money?”
Xia Wan was very surprised that her mother could say this. At the same time, she was happy for her mother.
Since her mother had started this, she naturally had to put on a good show.
She said to Li Jin, “Yes, and we haven’t paid his medical fees yet. The doctor said that we could pay a part of it first. My mother and I were just about to go home to get the money when you came, grandma. You’re here to pay for us, right?
“The doctor said that you’re still short of 3000 yuan. I’ve given you so much money all these years. You should have some, right, grandma?”
“What? Three thousand yuan! Are you guys going to eat people?!” Li Jin’s mouth was wide open, and she was so scared that she stepped back..
