Chapter 54: See If You Dare to Cause Trouble for No Reason Again in the Future

Since things have already happened, Deputy Factory Director Gu didn't want his own sister to be laughed at for nothing, but he couldn't just let it go either. He said coldly, "Then we'll do as you say. Later, I'll have someone bring this dirty outfit over to you."

His sister loved beauty the most and was probably already unable to bear it. He gave a look to his brother-in-law who was supporting his sister: "Kunming, you take Yaoyao back first. In a while, bring the receipt for the custom-made clothes along with this outfit."

The man heard what his own brother-in-law said, protected his wife, and headed outside: "Okay."

After that so-called Deputy Factory Director Gu turned around and went back to the next ward, Geng Nian'er, who was standing at the door, immediately exploded at his daughter: "You damn girl, do you know how much trouble you've caused me?"

The girl, now unable to care about anything else, said: "Dad, don't hit me, don't hit me. It wasn't on purpose; I slipped because I stepped on something."

Saying this, she looked around everywhere, but unfortunately found nothing.

What she didn't know was that Seeing Liu Chuxue had already taken those few soybeans away amidst the chaos earlier; it was no wonder she couldn't find them.

The man probably knew too that even if he beat this girl to death, the compensation couldn't be avoided: "Get back and tell your mother to bring money over. From now on, turn over all your wages until you've paid back the cost of those clothes."

Hearing these words, the girl felt as if she had been granted a great reprieve. She crawled and rolled to pick up the basket and lunchbox from the ground, preparing to leave.

As a result, the hospital cleaning lady stopped her: "You made the floor look like this, and you just want to walk away after patting your backside?"

Seeing Liu Chuxue watched like it was a play, watching that girl finish cleaning the floor, only to be lectured thoroughly by the cleaning lady in charge: See if you dare to cause trouble for no reason in the future?

Having taken her revenge, her mood was finally at ease.

The surgery was done, but a new problem arose. It was already getting dark, and finding a place to stay overnight was another issue.

Liu's mother gritted her teeth: "Xue, how about you go to the guesthouse across the way and rent a room for the night? Tomorrow, if your father has nothing going on, I'll stay and take care of him. You take the bus back to school for class; we can't let your studies be delayed."

Seeing Liu Chuxue lifted the water from the coarse porcelain bowl in her hand and took a sip: "I've asked the teacher for a week's leave. My father just had surgery; if anything happens, I can stay and lend a hand."

As for studying, I can preview the material myself. I'll write down anything I don't understand and ask the teacher later. I've brought all my books, so rest assured; I definitely won't fall behind in my studies."

After finishing, she glanced at the others in the room, leaned in close, and lowered her voice: "Besides, I just got some fishing gear. I have to try it out again. What if your daughter really has a talent for fishing? Then we won't have to worry about my father's treatment fees anymore."

The couple had long known that the second child was someone with her own ideas, but after experiencing these past few days, they had forced their second daughter to become even more independent and strong. This made them both happy and heartbroken.

As a modern person who had never suffered much hardship since childhood, under the given conditions, Seeing Liu Chuxue naturally didn't want to wrong herself. Regarding Liu's mother's suggestion to stay at the guesthouse, that was acceptable.

She could have just found a hidden place to enter the space and stay there, but she still wanted her own cheap mother to have a good place to rest for the coming days: "Mom, I'll go check if there are any rooms left at the guesthouse across the way. If there are, we'll rent one."

Fearing Liu's mother would worry about the money, she leaned close to her ear: "Today, several people still exchanged money for fish. Don't worry about the money."

After moving a bit further away, she spoke up to persuade them: "Only if we rest well can we take good care of my father. We can't skimp on a few melons and dates to hurt ourselves; if we get exhausted and collapse, that wouldn't be worth it."
