He Yuzhu returns in Siheyuan

He Yuzhu walked slowly to He Xiao's side with heavy steps, squatted down, and gently placed his hands on He Xiao's thin shoulders, his eyes full of love and reluctance: "Good child, Daddy can't be with you and mommy all the time, but you must remember to protect mommy like a little man, can you do it?"

He Xiao nodded vigorously, looked at He Yuzhu firmly, and said in a childish voice: "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely protect Mom!"

He Yuzhu opened his mouth, and even though he had a thousand words in his heart that he wanted to say, he didn't know where to start. In the end, he just stared deeply at his sensible son in front of him, his eyes slightly red. After a moment, he managed to force a smile and said softly: "Then... Dad will see you off."

How could He Yuzhu bear to leave the child he had just seen? But He Xiao still had to go to Xianghe to study, so how could he let his studies be delayed?

This time, He Xiao did not refuse He Yuzhu's farewell. In fact, deep down in his heart, He Xiao was eager for He Yuzhu to move with them.

However, little He Xiao has already understood and understood his father's difficulties. He has a younger sister Nian Yi and a younger brother He Bing at home who need their father's careful care, so he cannot be so selfish.

Just as He Yuzhu was bidding farewell to He Xiao, Yi Zhonghai rushed to the hospital in a hurry. On the other side, Yan Bugui carefully supported the third aunt into the hospital. After a careful examination, the doctor told Yan Bugui solemnly that the third aunt's injury was not optimistic. She had three stitches on her wound and had mild concussion symptoms. She had to rest for a while before she could recover.

In the hospital ward, the atmosphere in Yan Bugui's family was extremely heavy.

Under the dim light, Yan Bugui sat beside the bed, his eyes fixed on his wife who was lying on the bed. There was a bloodstained gauze on her forehead, which was a testimony to her misfortune that happened not long ago.

Yan Bugui's heart felt like it was hit by a heavy hammer, and the pain made him almost unable to breathe. He thought about Jia Zhang's rude and unreasonable appearance, and how she smashed his wife's head. A surge of anger burned in his chest, making him tremble with anger.

Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiecheng, and Yan Jiekuang all rushed to the hospital. After all, the person lying on the bed was their biological mother! They stood quietly by, their faces full of worry.

Yan Jiefang's hot temper could not be suppressed once it started. He glared at Yan Bugui with a pair of big eyes like copper bells, and shouted angrily: "Dad, who hit our mom's head? Tell me quickly, I must smash those bastards to death!" As he spoke, he waved his fists, as if he was going to rush out to settle the score in the next second.

Yan Bugui lowered his head, staring at the old woman lying on the bed, and was so angry that his body began to tremble uncontrollably. After a long while, he suppressed his anger and said, "Okay, don't be impulsive! We'll discuss it after your mother wakes up."

After hearing what their father said, the children were still angry, but they could only shut up and not say anything. They just stood silently by the bed, anxiously waiting for their mother to wake up.

Time passed by, and finally, the unconscious aunt slowly opened her eyes. She looked around blankly and muttered to herself: "What happened to me? Why did I end up in the hospital?"

Yan Bugui quickly came to the bedside and whispered to the third aunt exactly what had happened. After listening to her husband's story, the third aunt nodded helplessly and sighed, "Oh, I didn't expect Jia Zhang to be such a crazy woman and be so cruel!"

Yan Jiefang looked at Yan Bugui and said, "Dad, it was Jia Zhang who beat my mom. Why did he beat my mom? Is our family so easy to bully?"

Yan Bugui told him everything that happened at that time. Yan Jiefang looked at Yan Bugui and said, "What does this have to do with our family? If Banggeng hadn't teased the dogs, would those stray dogs have bitten Banggeng?"

Several sons were chattering here, and Yan Bugui felt that he had nothing to do in this matter, but there was nothing he could do.

At this time, Yan Jiedi, who had been silent, looked at Yan Bugui and said, "Dad, this matter has nothing to do with us. Let's go to the police and see how the police will punish her. After all, Jia Zhang has a criminal record."

Yan Jiefang shook his head: "Why call the police? Let's go directly to Jia's house and smash it to pieces. Let's see what he can do."

Yan Bugui didn't want to do this. After all, he was a teacher. How could he do such a violent thing?

After calming down, Yan Bugui realized that he couldn't just let this go. He had to seek justice for his wife and let Jia Zhang receive the punishment she deserved. So he decided to call the police. He believed that the law was fair and would not let any bad guy go, nor would it wrongly accuse any good guy.

Just when Yan Bugui was anxiously preparing to go to the police station to report the case, Yi Zhonghai suddenly strode in and asked in confusion, "Old Yan, what are you going to do in such a hurry?"

Yan Bugui turned his head abruptly, staring at Yi Zhonghai with eyes wide open, and said indignantly: "Old Yi, come and see! My poor old woman has been beaten to a pulp by that shrew Jia Zhang! I must report to the police today and send her to jail! Let her suffer!"

As he spoke, Yan Bugui pointed to the three aunts lying on the bed, covered in wounds.

Yi Zhonghai looked in the direction of Yan Bugui's finger and saw that the third aunt's head was wrapped in a white cloth with blood on it, and it was obvious that her injury was serious.

However, Yi Zhonghai knew very well in his mind that although the third aunt was seriously injured, the injuries on Banggeng's body should not be underestimated.

Therefore, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Yan Bugui's arm, and persuaded him: "Old Yan, don't be impulsive! You may not know that the injuries on Banggeng's body are much more serious than your old woman's! If we really take the case to the police station, I'm afraid it will not end well for anyone. We are all neighbors, we will see each other sooner or later, so let's make a big deal out of a small matter."

Yan Bugui was naturally unwilling to do so. He looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Old Yi, I have said everything. I must report this matter to the police. I will see what the police say then."
