chasing the dark

Chapter 18 Help
Wu Xiufen's material was not difficult for Jiang Yu to write, and it took only two or three days to complete it.

Looking at these thin pages, Wu Xiufen seemed to see a gold medal for avoiding death.

She wanted to cry, but she was afraid that tears would wet the paper, so she resisted and bowed to Jiang Yu: "Sister Xiao Jiang, your great kindness..."

Jiang Yu didn't wait for her to finish, and quickly held her hand to make her stand up straight: "Don't talk too much, show it to Supervisor Xiao, if it doesn't work, let's change it."

Wu Xiufen responded, went to the door and shouted "Report", then squatted down, waiting for Officer Xiao to bring her up.

Jiang Yu said that he couldn't change it, but he still had confidence in this material.There is no need for gorgeous words for this kind of thing, it is best to state concisely and clearly.

But in order not to arouse the suspicion of Xiao Guanjiao, she still left a few language errors and typos.But these mistakes are harmless, after Xiao Guanjiao has read them, he can correct them casually.

Sure enough, during the next day's inspection, Captain Qu said that the material Xiao had corrected, and that the detention center would submit it to Wu Xiufen and asked Wu Xiufen to wait patiently.

I don't know if it's because waiting makes people anxious, or Wu Xiufen is used to working when she is at home. Except when she is not allowed to walk around casually, she is almost never idle.

Dragging the shackles to clean up, wash the toilet, help people prepare food and water, wash dishes... If there is no clear division of labor in the daily work in the cell, she can take care of all the work.

She was really free, so she started talking about Jiang Yu.

The reason why they looked for Jiang Yu was that the two of them had been together day and night for a few days and became familiar with each other.

Second, she came here because she thought the girl was kind and good-natured.

Another point, when she looked at Jiang Yu, she would think of her daughter.

Wu Xiufen pondered in her heart, when she had the opportunity to meet her mother-in-law, she would discuss how to find a school for her eldest daughter and continue her studies.After the youngest daughter goes to school, she will never be allowed to drop out of school.Not only do you have to go to junior high school and high school, but you will also go to college in the future.

She told Jiang Yu these ideas, and Jiang Yu agreed.He also encouraged her to behave well, so that she can learn a craft when she goes out in the future, and earn money to support her mother-in-law and two children.

Wu Xiufen looked forward to the future, and a smile appeared on that scarred face.

Jiang Yu took this opportunity to tell her that it's okay to help appropriately, but don't always rush to do the work, or it will appear that others are not active.If you can't be idle, you can help those in need.

Wu Xiufen is simple but not stupid, she glanced at Wang Ling cautiously, and whispered: "I want to help her, but she always ignores people."

"She just doesn't talk much." Jiang Yu looked at her feet, "This is what she asked me to give you."

"Really? Then I have to thank her very much."

Wu Xiufen wanted to leave as soon as she said that, but was grabbed by Jiang Yu: "You don't need to thank her specially, otherwise she will be even more uncomfortable. It's your business to help, and it's her business to accept it. You just do it with your heart.”

With Jiang Yu's words, Wu Xiufen took the initiative to take care of Wang Ling regardless of Wang Ling's attitude.Cooking meals, laying quilts, making quilts, and asking her if she drinks water and goes to the toilet when it is free time.

At the beginning, Wang Ling refused.But Wu Xiufen didn't care at all, she still did whatever she wanted.

I don't know why, but the police didn't come for interrogation recently. Wang Ling was always cared by Wu Xiufen in the cell all day long, and finally couldn't help it anymore. When Wu Xiufen asked her again if she wanted to go to the bathroom, she suddenly said: "Are you bothered?"

"Don't worry, it's been a long time since you went to the bathroom. Come on, put your hands on my shoulders, and I'll help you go." Wu Xiufen squatted down halfway, and passed her shoulders over.

"I'm not going, no." Wang Ling turned her face away.

Wu Xiufen was not annoyed, so she sat down next to her, lifted the shackles and moved her legs to the bunk: "Don't dislike what I say, you see, you don't move around every day, if you continue like this, you will collapse Is it?"

Seeing that Wang Ling was still turning her head, Wu Xiufen sighed: "We have to think for ourselves now, and we can't always be so depressed. If there is any difficulty, tell me, whoever can help. Look, I don't know. That's right, I was waiting to be shot, but now, they all say that I can't die, and I can go home in the future."

"Don't think too beautifully, maybe when will wait."

Wang Ling's words were as cold as a basin of ice water, but Wu Xiufen didn't get poured into it at all. She twitched her mouth: "I heard from them that as long as the court makes a sentence, they can see their family members. I know I I will definitely go to jail, but I am not afraid. No matter where I am, I am still alive, I just know that they are all well, and I don’t know anything when I die.”

These words seemed to touch a certain nerve in Wang Ling, she slowly turned her head and stared at this ugly woman because of her disfigurement: "You live your life, leave me alone."

"Don't say that, they are all in trouble, and they should help each other." Wu Xiufen said.

Wang Ling bared her smile: "If you knew why I came in, you wouldn't think so."

"I understood when they said you that day." Wu Xiufen's voice was very soft.

"Then you don't hate me?" Wang Ling looked at her and asked, "If there were no people like me, you might not have ended up where you are today."

Wu Xiufen suddenly stared at Wang Ling with her eyes of different sizes and asked, "Do you have children too?"

Wang Ling was startled, her eyes moved a few times, she didn't answer, but she avoided the other party's eyes.

Wu Xiufen didn't continue to ask, but said: "It's a lie to say that you don't hate. When I think of my son now, my heart still hurts. If you abduct my son, even if you shoot him, I will let him go." You hand him over. But...the one who took my son may be a man."

She paused, frowned and asked, "Tell me, what's wrong with doing it? Why do you have to do such a wicked thing? Then you won't be hot when you spend money?"

Wang Ling still remained silent, and she didn't know if she didn't want to answer or didn't know how to answer at all.

Jiang Yu passed by, and "coincidentally" heard the last sentence, she sat down next to Wu Xiufen: "Maybe she has some unavoidable difficulties."

"No matter what the reason is, it shouldn't hurt the world." Hearing her defending Wang Ling, Wu Xiufen was a little annoyed, threw the shackles on the ground, and walked away procrastinatingly.

"Hey, you're getting angry now." Jiang Yu smiled helplessly and shook his head.

Seeing that Wang Ling's eyes were dim, she persuaded: "I must be thinking of her son again, and I don't know how to speak, so don't take it to heart."

"She's right, she's hurting nature and reason, and it's unconscionable." Wang Ling said every word.

"This...how should I put it?" Jiang Yu scratched his head, "I've never met someone who lost children before, but just look at Wu Xiufen and you'll know how important children are to a family."
