Seeing that the man had already left Xu Xiaohu's house, Qi Jin'e didn't bother to make a fuss anymore and quickly got up to chase him.
When they arrived at the living room, Qi Jin'e grabbed He Yuzhu's sleeve tightly and refused to let him go. Deputy Director Li had no choice but to look at He Yuzhu:
"Zhu Zi, I'm really sorry for you today. I'll treat you to a drink some other day to make amends. I'm sorry to bother you with my brother-in-law's illness!"
He Yuzhu nodded. He understood what Deputy Director Li meant:
Now that things have come to this, I can't just let myself bear the consequences alone. It's better to expose the truth to everyone.
After all, Xu Xiaohu is his brother-in-law, not his biological brother.
My father-in-law and mother-in-law still have to take care of everything.
Xu Yingying helped her mother sit down and they all looked up at He Yuzhu, waiting for him to speak.
"Aunt, your son's illness is not an ordinary illness, I'm sure you know that.
My brother Li said that he had consulted many doctors and had been to foreign hospitals, but nothing worked. "
Qi Jin'e nodded hurriedly and couldn't help but began to cry.
She only has this one son, and he has contracted this disease at such a young age. How will she live her life from now on?
"Aunt, I'm telling you the truth. You have to be mentally prepared."
While speaking, He Yuzhu glanced at Xu Yingying, signaling her to pay attention to her old mother.
"Xu Xiaohu's illness is called the dead man's disease. He contracted it from the funerary objects that were just dug out of the tomb."
As soon as He Yuzhu said this, Qi Jin'e felt her head buzzing and stars began to appear in her eyes.
Deadly disease?
Her son was fine, how could he have contracted a fatal disease?
Obviously, she didn't hear clearly what He Yuzhu said next.
Xu Yingying's face suddenly turned as pale as paper.
She is the head nurse of the People's Hospital and knows something about diseases that cause death.
She also understood why her younger brother was infected with the deadly disease, so she knew more clearly what her younger brother and the entire Xu family would have to face once this matter was exposed.
Qi Jin'e was the first to react and looked up at He Yuzhu:
"You, you are talking nonsense, my son is so young, how could he be sick with a fatal disease?
You are so young, and you look like a liar at first glance. You deliberately teamed up with Li Xingguo to cheat me, right?
You are so vicious at such a young age, aren't you afraid that retribution will come to your children in the future? Believe me or not..."
When He Yuzhu heard what Qi Jin'e said, his expression immediately changed.
Previously, the old woman had been rude to Deputy Director Li and even looked down on him, but for Deputy Director Li's sake, he could let it go.
Anyway, Qi Jin'e's main firepower was concentrated on Deputy Director Li.
Now, she even dragged her own child into this?
When Deputy Factory Director Li saw He Yuzhu's face change, he knew something bad was going to happen, so he quickly grabbed He Yuzhu's arm and said:
"Zhu Zi, my mother-in-law..."
However, before he could explain, Qi Jin'e spoke again:
"You little bastard, I'm telling you, if you dare to talk nonsense in my house again, believe it or not, I will come to your house.
Let all the neighbors around you see your true face, you little bastard, and make your parents, wife and children unable to hold their heads up for the rest of their lives!"
Well, Deputy Director Li has let go of He Yuzhu's hand.
Damn it, I don’t care about having a mother-in-law like this. You can die however you want!
He Yuzhu got up with a gloomy face and walked out without saying a word.
Seeing that she had scolded that little bastard away, Qi Jin'e immediately became proud and glared at Deputy Director Li and sneered:
"Humph, Li Xingguo, do you think you can fool me by finding a little bastard?
I tell you, if it weren’t for Qingqing, you wouldn’t even be able to enter my Xu family’s door!
Bah, do you really think you are so great just because you are a deputy factory director?"
Deputy Director Li just glanced at his mother-in-law coldly, sat on the sofa without saying a word, and did not get up and leave.
Xu Yingying was a smart person. She knew that her younger brother's illness was not a simple matter. Seeing that Deputy Director Li had a gloomy face and didn't want to talk, she didn't go over to ask about the situation.
She thought about it, walked to the phone and called her father to ask him to come home.
It was almost time to get off work, but Xu Zhonghou received a call from his eldest daughter and returned home shortly after riding his bicycle.
When Li Xingguo saw his father-in-law coming back, the anger on his face dissipated a little, and he stood up and greeted his father-in-law:
"Dad, you're back?"
"Well, Xingguo is here?"
Seeing that his third son-in-law looked unhappy, Xu Zhonghou glanced at his own wife, knowing that it must be his wife who had scolded her son-in-law again. He did not say anything more and went to wash his hands.
Seeing her father wash his hands, Xu Yingying brought him an enamelware pot and said with a smile:
"Dad, drink some water. After you finish drinking the water, you have to go to the kitchen to help me. I want to make a good meal today."
Father Xu glanced at his daughter and knew that she had something to say to him. He immediately took the enamel pot with a smile, drank a few sips of water, and followed his daughter into the kitchen.
However, as soon as the two entered the kitchen, they heard someone knocking on the door.
"Bang bang bang, bang bang bang"
The voice sounded urgent. Deputy Director Li subconsciously glanced at the door. Father Xu's voice rang out from the kitchen:
"Xingguo, go open the door and see who's here."
Li Xingguo got up and opened the door, and saw He Yuzhu coming back with two people following him.
Hey, these are all familiar faces!
The soldier Xiaobing from the Municipal Bureau and Officer Xu.
"Soldiers, Comrade Xu is coming, come on, come in!"
As soon as Li Xingguo saw these two people, his originally gloomy mood suddenly became much more relaxed.
It should be said that he liked Zhuzi's character of taking revenge on the spot without delay.
While inviting the three people in, Li Xingguo called out to the kitchen again:
"Dad, the leader of the Municipal Bureau is here."
"Hey."
Xu Zhonghou in the kitchen responded with a puzzled look on his face and walked out.
He didn't notice that his daughter next to him trembled with fear when she heard the words "Municipal Bureau".
When Qi Jin'e saw He Yuzhu coming back, she was about to make a sarcastic remark, but when she heard the words "leader of the Municipal Bureau", she was so scared that she dared not speak.
When Deputy Factory Director Li saw his father-in-law coming out, he immediately introduced the identities of both parties. After they sat down, Bing Xiaobing went straight to the point:
"Comrade Xu, I came here today to investigate something with your son Xu Xiaohu."
Bing Xiaobing finished speaking, and just as Xu's father was about to continue, Bing Xiaobing waved his hand and interrupted him:
"I know Xu Xiaohu is seriously ill and bedridden, so I came to you two to get to know him."
While speaking, she also glanced at Qi Jin'e, who was so scared that she couldn't help but lean closer to her man.
Although Xu Zhonghou was full of doubts, he still spoke:
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask. We will tell you everything we know."
Seeing that Xu Zhonghou's tense expression had eased a bit, Bing Xiaobing asked:
"Do you know who your son was in contact with in the months before he became ill?"
PS: Don’t go, there is still one chapter!!!
When Xu Zhonghou heard this question, the confusion on his face became even stronger.
He subconsciously glanced at his wife, then looked at Bing Xiaobing, and asked cautiously:
"Commander Bing, can you tell me what happened?"
Bing Xiaobing did not hide it and said immediately:
"A few days ago, we destroyed a transportation yard that was transporting antiques that tomb robbers had just dug out from tombs.
However, a few leaders took advantage of the chaos and escaped with a batch of antiques. In the past few months, we have been tracking down those leaders and that batch of antiques.
The disease your son has, also known as the dead man's disease, can only be contracted by touching those antiques. Do you understand what I mean?"
Xu Zhonghou is not like his shallow-minded wife. He is very clear about the country's current policy on antiques.
Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, he heard Qi Jin'e, who was sitting next to him, yelling at He Yuzhu:
"Bah, what dead person disease, what antiques, what tomb robbers?
I think you are the one Li Xingguo called over to scare me. What's the matter? Seeing that you two couldn't scare me, you found two other scammers to come along?"
After cursing, Qi Jin'e turned to look at Li Xingguo, who was sitting calmly beside her, and pointed at his nose and cursed again:
"Li Xingguo, I don't understand, how will it benefit you to have someone throw dirty water on Xiaohu like this?
What? Do you want to see our Xu family fall so that you can divorce Qingqing and make that little vixen you kept outside your wife your regular wife?
Li Xingguo, I tell you, as long as I am alive, you will never be able to divorce Qingqing from our family, I..."
Qi Jin'e cursed more and more vigorously, with spit flying everywhere, and even Xu Zhonghou, who was sitting next to her, was affected.
He Yuzhu glanced at Li Xingguo and saw that he had a blank expression on his face and ignored his mother-in-law. It was obvious that he didn't want to argue with a shrew.
"Comrade Xu, this is my ID."
Bing Xiaobing has been investigating cases for so many years, and naturally he has encountered many shrews like Qi Jin'e. He has plenty of ways to deal with them.
Xu Zhonghou's eyelids twitched violently. He took a look at the certificate handed over by Bing Xiaobing. There was a big five-pointed star on the cover. His face suddenly turned ugly.
How dare he really look at it?
Besides, he naturally knew the situation of his third son-in-law, so it was not surprising that he could invite these people.
He first turned around and glared at his wife, then said two words harshly:
"Shut up!"
When Qi Jin'e saw her husband got angry, she quickly shut her mouth and dared not say anything.
Xu Zhonghou then smiled and apologized to Bing Xiaobing:
"I'm sorry, Commander Bing, I'm a woman who has never seen the world. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Bing Xiaobing waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and continued to ask:
"Comrade Xu, please think carefully about who Xu Xiaohu had contact with in the months before he fell ill."
Xu Zhonghou had been at work all the time, so he naturally didn't know about these things. He turned to look at his wife and asked:
"You usually stay at home. Tell the military leader who Xiaohu has been in contact with the most this year."
Qi Jin'e looked embarrassed:
"I don't know about this either. He didn't tell me about this. He just said he was going to go to Geer City. I didn't follow him."
Bing Xiaobing was not surprised by this result. The reason why he came over with He Yuzhu to take a look was just to give it a try.
Just then, a cough suddenly came from the inner room.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the voice, and Xu Yingying hurried over to check on her brother.
Soon, Xu Yingying helped her weak brother off the kang and sat down in the living room.
Xu Xiaohu's face was sallow, his eye sockets were sunken, and he was skin and bones. But when He Yuzhu took a closer look at him, he found that his condition was not as serious as Bang Geng's.
At least, there was still some humanity on his face, and he didn't look dead.
When Bing Xiaobing saw that the real boss had woken up, he turned around and looked at Xu Shengnian beside him and gave him a wink.
