1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 813 Unless that person did it on purpose

When they arrived, the person had already been taken into the operating room.

Seeing her son-in-law Qiu Jinzhou there, Miao Yiqiu grabbed him and asked, "Jinzhou, how is Nianchun? What exactly happened?"

Qiu Jinzhou also looked anxious: "I don't know which scoundrel scattered a handful of soybeans at the alley entrance. Nianchun didn't notice where she was stepping and tripped."

Upon hearing this, Miao Yiqiu asked, "What is she doing going out so late?"

Qiu Jinzhou's face showed an unnatural expression: "My mother went out today. Brother Yilin kept saying he wanted to eat dumplings, so Nianchun wanted to go to the Shi family in the front row to get some pickled cabbage. She thought it was only a short walk, but who knew this accident would happen."

Upon hearing this, Grandpa Xiao asked, "You mean, when Nianchun went out, there were no soybeans at the alley entrance, but when she came back, there were?"

Qiu Jinzhou wasn't sure either: "I'm not too clear on the specifics; I've only heard the general situation from the neighbors."

Grandpa Xiao felt there was something wrong with this matter, after all, there were still many doubts about the matter of his deceased granddaughter: "Yiqiu, you wait here, I'm going out to make a phone call."

Although the two didn't have much affection for each other, they had lived together for so many years and developed a tacit understanding.

Miao Yiqiu nodded to him: "Okay, go quickly."

Qiu Jinzhou didn't understand at first, but seeing the old man leave in a hurry, he suddenly realized something: "Mom, where is Dad going?"

Miao Yiqiu was in a bad mood, so she didn't mince words: "Of course we'll find someone to investigate who scattered the soybeans. In this day and age, who would be willing to scatter soybeans on the road? Even if it was an accident, we'd definitely pick them all up, unless the person did it on purpose."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Jinzhou felt a surge of anger: "If I find out who did it, I will definitely not let her get away with it."

Although he didn't know who did it, he thought that if it was really done by someone, it was most likely a woman. But then he thought about how they had lived in that alley for so many years and hadn't made any enemies with anyone, so he couldn't think of anyone who would do such a thing.

Grandpa Xiao left and didn't return until there was some movement in the operating room.

When a nurse came out, Miao Yiqiu and Qiu Jinzhou rushed forward together: "Nurse, how is my daughter/lover?" The nurse didn't have time to reply: "We are doing our best to save her right now. Please make way while I go to the blood bank to get some blood."

Upon hearing that blood had to be drawn, Miao Yiqiu was so frightened that her soul almost left her body. If Qiu Jinzhou hadn't been there to support her, she probably would have collapsed to the ground.

She was trembling all over: "This is trying to kill my daughter!"

A short while later, the nurse came running back and rushed into the delivery room, shouting, "The blood is coming! The blood is coming!"

Meanwhile, Grandpa Xiao made a phone call and asked the nearby police station to go and investigate first. He then notified his eldest son, and the two of them rushed over together.

After interviewing nearby residents, the approximate time when the soybeans appeared was determined, and then an investigation was launched.

Persistence pays off. Finally, he learned from a child that he had seen the woman scattering soybeans several times in the alley next to the school. The child gave a rough description, which, although not very clear, gave him a general idea.

This further confirmed Old Master Xiao's suspicion that the person did it on purpose and knew that Xiao Nianchun was going out.

Just as Grandpa Xiao was leading the investigation, Qiu Jinzhou's mother returned home. A neighbor saw her and said, "Jinzhou's mother, you're finally back! Your daughter-in-law fell and was taken to the hospital."

Qiu Jinzhou's mother panicked immediately, and the cloth bag in her hand fell to the ground: "How could my daughter-in-law fall?"

The speaker pointed to the alley entrance: "I don't know which scoundrel scattered soybeans at the alley entrance."

She suddenly remembered that when she left home, her grandchildren were clamoring for dumplings, and her daughter-in-law was saying she was going to the Shi family's shop in the front row to exchange for pickled cabbage. She slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "Oh my goodness, what am I going to do?"

He stumbled and ran out of the alley.
