Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

The room was only the size of a palm, and Meng Haisheng couldn't get in at all, so he simply came out to talk to Meng Yu.

It turned out that after Meng Yu and Qiao Shangdong eloped, they didn't run too far. At first, they hid in the county, and later they couldn't find a job in the county, so they came to Anxin City.

When they first came, Qiao Shangdong found a job in a construction team. Although the work was hard, he made a lot of money, 36 yuan a month.

Meng Yu also found a cleaning job. The two didn't make much, but they had enough food and clothing.

Later, Meng Yu became pregnant, and the two had no money to go to the hospital. Meng Yu gave birth to two children in a small clinic.

It wasn't until she gave birth that the couple knew that Meng Yu was pregnant with twins.

With two more children suddenly in the family, Meng Yu couldn't go to work.

The family of four relied on Qiao Shangdong's money to support them.

The wages of the construction team were not settled every month. Generally, only half was settled, and the remaining half was settled together at the end of the year.

A family of four had less than 20 yuan a month, which was not enough for rent, food, and clothes.

The house they rented became more and more dilapidated, and finally became like this.

The family could not make ends meet, so Qiao Shangdong went to the construction team to discuss whether he could get a monthly salary.

As a result, Qiao Shangdong did not get his salary, and he had a conflict with the construction team and was fired by the construction team.

Qiao Shangdong was not willing to waste dozens of yuan, so he went to the construction team to ask for money from time to time, but there was no progress.

The foreman was sure that Qiao Shangdong was a poor boy from the countryside and had no skills, so he could not do anything even if he cheated his salary.

A week ago, when Qiao Shangdong went to the construction team to ask for his salary again, his leg was broken by the foreman with a triangle iron in the construction team.

Qiao Shangdong's family was so poor that they could not even eat, so where could they get the money to treat their legs? He went to a small clinic to treat the wound casually, and could only lie at home.

"Sister, I'm going to take my brother-in-law to the hospital to check his leg first. You pack up your things. After checking my brother-in-law's leg, we'll go home."

Meng Haisheng went into the house, carried Qiao Shangdong on his back and walked out.

"What should we do with this small house? I paid a month's rent, and there's still half a month left."

"Sister, it doesn't matter if you don't have that little money. Hurry up."

Meng Haisheng calculated the time. When Qiao Shangdong was in the hospital to treat his leg, he could go to the construction team.

Even if Qiao Shangdong's salary was not much and was stuck in the construction team, he wanted to get the money back.

This was not about money, but about people fighting for their dignity.

The construction team was obviously trying to cheat Qiao Shangdong's salary.

The construction team was full of physical work, and these wages were earned by Qiao Shangdong with sweat. Why shouldn't they give it to him?

Qiao Shangdong, lying on Meng Haisheng's back, was very embarrassed.

"Haisheng, don't carry me. One of my legs is lame, but I can still walk with the other leg."

"I can walk faster if I carry you."

Meng Haisheng didn't want to waste time in Anxin City. He wanted to go home in the afternoon.

Meng Haisheng carried Qiao Shangdong to the hospital first. Meng Hailian and Meng Yu packed up with their two children and came later.

"Doctor, can you help my brother-in-law check the injury on his leg."

Meng Haisheng called the emergency department for Qiao Shangdong. His leg smelled bad and he didn't know how the injury was.

The doctor in the emergency department had seen a lot of things, but when he removed the gauze on Qiao Shangdong's leg, he almost vomited because of nausea.

"Comrade, your wound is so rotten. Why didn't you come to the hospital earlier? If you continue like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to save your leg."

When the gauze was removed, Qiao Shangdong grimaced in pain and couldn't say a word.

Meng Haisheng, who was standing by, secretly complained in his heart, "I'll make you die of pain, but I'll let you learn to elope like others."

If it weren't for the fact that you were nice to my sister, I would have thrown you into a small dark room to fend for yourself today.

The doctor finally removed the smelly gauze on Qiao Shangdong's leg.

"I'll disinfect and clean the wound first. Young man, you can take someone to take an X-ray later and I'll see if surgery is needed."

"Doctor, do you need anesthesia to clean the wound? I heard that all the rotten flesh needs to be dug out, it must be very painful."

Meng Haisheng deliberately asked the doctor, he just wanted to scare Qiao Shangdong.

As expected, as soon as Meng Haisheng finished speaking, Qiao Shangdong's face changed again and again.

These days, he was lying in bed, and the wound on his leg was always aching. Sometimes he couldn't sleep at night because of the pain.

If he didn't use any anesthesia and dug out the damaged flesh, he would faint from the pain.

"The young man knows a lot. For such a large area of ​​ulceration, anesthesia must be used."

Meng Haisheng muttered in his heart, what a pity.

The emergency room had not yet cleaned up Qiao Shangdong's wounds.Meng Hailian brought Meng Yu and the two children over to the hospital.

"Brother, I'll leave this to you. I'll go out for a while."

Qiao Shangdong was not in danger of life, so Meng Haisheng was relieved.

"Where are you going, Haisheng?"

Seeing Meng Haisheng going out, Meng Hailian vaguely guessed that he wanted to help Qiao Shangdong get his salary.

"Brother, don't worry. I won't go out to cause trouble. I'll leave this to you. I'll be back soon."

Meng Haisheng didn't want to say more and turned around and walked out of the hospital and went straight to the construction team where Qiao Shangdong used to work.

At this time, the construction team had already finished work, and most of the workers were holding enamel basins and waiting for food at the canteen door.

It didn't take Meng Haisheng much effort to find out the location of the foreman Yuan Wei's office.

Yuan Wei's office was not far from the canteen door. Meng Haisheng took a look and immediately had a plan in his mind.

He did not go to find Yuan Wei, but pulled a random person at the entrance of the canteen and deliberately asked him if he knew Qiao Shangdong.

There was a high turnover of personnel on the construction site, but Qiao Shangdong had been coming to the construction site for several months to ask for wages, and the workers on the construction site knew him more or less.

"Brother, in addition to the money owed to Qiao Shangdong, has the construction team ever owed money to other workers before?"

The man Meng Haisheng asked was Guo Zhenhua, also a big and strong man.

"Of course, our construction team usually withholds half of the workers' wages and waits until the end of the year to pay them."

"During this period, various things happened. Some people did not work for a year and left halfway. It was difficult to get the remaining wages back."

"You didn't report this unequal treatment to the construction team."

Guo Zhenhua smiled honestly.

What's the use of using it against the will? In the end, it will definitely be left unresolved.

For those who come out to work like them, eight or nine out of ten are unable to make ends meet at home. It is not easy to earn some money by selling physical labor.

How dare they offend the construction team again? If they lose their jobs, it will be difficult to find another one.

Meng Haisheng was talking to people here about the issue of salary.

He felt bitter. These workers had worked so hard in the construction team, but in the end they were controlled by the foreman.

However, Meng Haisheng also knew that this situation would continue for a long time in the construction team, until the state stepped in to cancel this fair treatment.

It was basically impossible for him to completely change this wage system by himself.

But he could teach the workers in the construction team some useful tricks to prevent the foreman from easily deducting the workers' wages.
