Chapter 897 Can you please just shut up?
Lu Qiaoge didn't ask Xiao Cangcang to pay attention to the Dong family.
Because it's not worth paying attention to.
You don't even need to think to know what those two people are thinking right now.
As for Mrs. Dong, she definitely felt guilty and remorseful, and she was also afraid. She felt most embarrassed and didn't know how to face the people in the compound.
Once things stabilize, there will likely be more blame directed at Dong Mingming.
As for Dong Yuanyuan's mindset, she's probably thinking about how to distance herself from this whole affair.
Therefore, it doesn't really matter whether you pay attention or not.
When Lu Qiaoge arrived at Beidu Station, Qin Hengzhi was there to pick her up.
Qin Hengzhi drove his car slowly through the streets of Beidu with his wife.
Now is the best season of the year.
Spring is here, flowers are in bloom, and birds are singing.
The weather is nice today, no wind or rain, and surprisingly, the sky is a clear blue.
Qin Hengzhi was not surprised at all that Lu Qiaoge knew about what happened to the Dong family. He said to Lu Qiaoge in a deep voice, "...She woke up this morning, but she refused to communicate, didn't speak, and didn't react to the outside world."
Then, while waiting for the red light, he turned to look at Lu Qiaoge sitting next to him, took her hand, and said to her, "Tell Huahua that it's not its fault, and tell it not to blame itself or feel guilty."
Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "If you say that, Huahua will definitely be very happy."
When Qin Hengzhi got home and didn't see Huahua, he knew where she had gone.
But Huahua isn't out right now, probably because it's inconvenient.
Or perhaps Hua Hua doesn't want to come out.
“I had a brief conversation with Lao Dong. Right now, the main focus is on treatment. We also need to find out why this reaction happened. I also went to look at the broken pieces on the floor. That vase is an antique, and according to current acquisition prices, it's worth about 5 yuan.”
Even though it's already the 80s, the salaries of most enterprises and public institutions have not increased significantly.
The economy is still dominated by a planned economy.
So prices are not much different from before.
This 5 yuan is actually quite expensive. For Lu Qiaoge's family, this 5 yuan is really nothing. However, this matter needs to be clarified.
Lu Qiaoge then heard Qin Hengzhi continue, "I've already taken photos. You won't see the fragments when you go back now. The Dong family has already cleaned it up."
As Qin Hengzhi left the Dong family, Dong Yuanyuan rushed out of the bedroom and shouted: "This is all Lu Qiaoge's fault for raising Huahua! Now that cat has caused trouble and run away, can't we find the owner if we can't find the cat?" Dong Yuanyuan wanted Lu Qiaoge to give her an explanation.
Although Dong Yuanyuan was scolded and sent back to her bedroom by Lao Dong, Qin Hengzhi knew that Dong Yuanyuan would try every means to pin the blame on Huahua, and then drag Lu Qiaoge into it.
Qin Hengzhi was impatient with all of this.
However, this matter did involve Lu Qiaoge's cat, so he suggested that the military should intervene in the investigation. Qin Hengzhi didn't go into details about Hua Hua's situation, but he told Lu Qiaoge how to handle it.
Lu Qiaoge then learned of Qin Hengzhi's suggestion, and she thought it was a very good one.
There needs to be a standard for right and wrong; we can't just assume "you should" or "it's about right."
If it is our responsibility, we will take it on; if it is not our responsibility, we will absolutely not take it on.
Lu Qiaoge said, "Qin Hengzhi, the matter of compensation should also be handled by the military."
Qin Hengzhi nodded: "That's what I meant too."
Dong Yuanyuan rarely goes out, but she has been keeping an eye on what's going on next door these past few days.
She didn't know when Lu Qiaoge would return, and then she heard the sound of someone coming upstairs.
The doors were all ordinary wooden doors, so she couldn't see what was happening outside, but she heard the sound of the door across the hall being unlocked.
Then I heard Lu Qiaoge's voice.
She knew that Lu Qiaoge had also returned.
Without any hesitation, Dong Yuanyuan was about to open the door.
At that time, only Grandma Dong and she were at home; Old Dong and Lian Liying were at the hospital.
Before leaving, Lao Dong instructed her to keep an eye on Dong Yuanyuan, because she had spoken inappropriately in front of Qin Hengzhi, making him lose face.
So when Dong Yuanyuan stood at the door, the old lady became wary. She patted her chest, feeling that she must have done something terrible in her past life, otherwise why would she encounter such a distressing thing in her old age?
She lowered her voice and snapped at Dong Yuanyuan, "Stop right there! What are you doing?"
Dong Yuanyuan stood at the door, her hand on the doorknob, and turned to Grandma Dong, saying, "Grandma, Lu Qiaoge is back. Everything that happened in our family today was because of Lu Qiaoge's cat. Without that cat, none of this would have happened, and we would still be doing just fine as before. Why is Lu Qiaoge acting like nothing happened? The cat ran away, but it can't hide forever. Lu Qiaoge is back, so of course she has to take responsibility for this."
After saying all that, it was clear that Dong Yuanyuan had been mentally prepared.
For a moment, Grandma Dong actually thought that Dong Yuanyuan was right. If all the problems could really be pinned on Lu Qiaoge, it might not be a bad thing, at least it would divert attention.
But remembering her son's words, she gritted her teeth and said to Dong Yuanyuan, "Shut up! Leader Qin has already applied for the military to intervene. Now that Lu Qiaoge is back, the military will come to investigate. What good will it do you to go find Lu Qiaoge now? Whether it's her responsibility or not, the military will definitely give a result in the end."
"Grandma, you need to know that Qin Hengzhi's backing is much stronger than ours. Don't let all the blame fall on you and me later."
Grandma Dong glared at her, placing her hand on her heart: "What do you mean by this? How can you say such hurtful things? I haven't been feeling well these past few days, can't you just let me have a few days of peace? Can't you just shut up? Either find a job, or go hide at your mother's place, can you stop staring at the neighbors across the street all day? I know what you're thinking, but I advise you to give up on that idea. After this incident, even if Lu Qiaoge ends up taking responsibility because of her cat, she can't be held fully accountable."
At this point, Grandma Dong sat down on the sofa with a dejected look on her face: "The military is waiting for Lu Qiaoge to come back so they can investigate together. What you should be thinking about now is how to talk to the people in the military."
While she hesitated, Dong Yuanyuan heard the door across the hall being closed.
She stomped her foot in frustration and said to the old lady, "You're probably just saying this because my dad doesn't dare offend the other side. But Grandma, even if we are responsible, we should minimize our responsibility, otherwise neither of us will get away with it."
Mrs. Dong looked at Dong Yuanyuan with some disbelief: "You keep saying 'we, we'... what do you mean by that?"
