"Don't you think the money is short? It doesn't matter, we can discuss the amount again," Liu Bing said hurriedly.
"Yes, yes, we can discuss the amount of money." Lu Dejiang also nodded.
"No need to discuss, let's..." Before Ma Dahai finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Chunfang.
Zhang Chunfang reached out and pulled Ma Dahai: "Say less."
"Chunfang, that Lu Xiaohua broke your arm, we can't just let it go!" Ma Dahai said with a frown.
"Okay, I have my own opinion, please don't worry about it." Zhang Chunfang turned his head and looked at Lu Dejiang and Liu Bing: "To be honest, I really hate Lu Xiaohua. It is just a small matter to quarrel with, and it will be over after the quarrel.
, but I didn’t expect Lu Xiaohua to be so cruel. He actually called in a few helpers to beat me, and he hit me very hard. He almost beat me to death... In the end, he even broke my arm. Until now,
My arms are in terrible pain..."
"Yes, yes, it's Xiaohua's fault. I apologize to you on her behalf." Lu Dejiang and Liu Bing said hurriedly.
Zhang Chunfang waved her hand: "For the sake of your coming to apologize, let this matter go. But I don't want it to happen again..."
"No, it will never happen again." Lu Dejiang promised.
"Yes, I will ask Xiaohua to resign later and let her work in another company. In this way, you will not see each other often in the future." Liu Bing also said.
Ma Dahai became anxious when he heard this: "Chunfang, how could you let that Lu Xiaohua go so easily..."
Zhang Chunfang stretched out her hand to interrupt Ma Dahai: "It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. There is no need to really become enemies." After saying that, Zhang Chunfang turned to look at Liu Bing and Lu Dejiang and his wife: "It would be better if Lu Xiaohua could take the initiative to resign.
To avoid any embarrassment when we meet in the future..." At this point, Zhang Chunfang paused and said, "I was injured by Lu Xiaohua, and you must pay for the medical expenses and hospitalization expenses."
"No problem." Liu Bing nodded.
"My arm is broken, and it will probably take a long time to recover. The cost of lost work..." Before Zhang Chunfang could finish her words, Liu Bing took her over.
"The 30,000 yuan I just gave you is your compensation. If you think the amount is not enough, we can discuss it again," Liu Bing said with a smile.
"Yes, we can still discuss it... How about you give us a number?" Lu Dejiang said.
Zhang Chunfang pondered for a moment: "I don't want much, just give it to me..."
"Bang!"
The door to the ward was suddenly pushed open, and Ma Xiaoyao walked in quickly.
"Xiaoyao, you are finally back!" Ma Dahai breathed a sigh of relief.
Ma Xiaoyao glanced at Lu Dejiang and Liu Bing, and said in a deep voice: "Are you Lu Xiaohua's family?"
"Yes, we are Xiaohua's parents, who are you?" Lu Dejiang asked doubtfully.
"I am Zhang Chunfang's son." Ma Xiaoyao did not hide his identity.
"Oh, you are the eldest sister's son..." Lu Dejiang said with a smile: "You came just in time, I am discussing with your parents about getting married..."
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "No need to discuss, you can leave now."
Lu Dejiang was stunned: "You...what do you mean?"
"What I mean is very simple. The matter of Lu Xiaohua hurting my mother will never be kept private. I will definitely sue Lu Xiaohua, and I will make Lu Xiaohua go to jail!" Ma Xiaoyao said firmly.
"Xiaoyao, what are you talking about?" Zhang Chunfang said anxiously.
Ma Dahai's expression was very calm, nothing unusual at all.
"Mom, do you really plan to keep it secret? Do you really plan to let that Lu Xiaohua go? Are you really willing to be beaten in vain?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"Xiaoyao, Lu Xiaohua's parents have already come to apologize, and they plan to pay a certain amount of compensation. I think this matter should be forgotten..." Zhang Chunfang is an out-and-out ordinary citizen, and has always been soft-hearted. Lu
As soon as Dejiang and Liu Bing came to apologize and offer monetary compensation, Zhang Chunfang planned to reconcile the matter.
"Your arm has been broken? Can you just apologize and let it go?" Ma Xiaoyao snorted: "It's not that easy!"
"You..." Zhang Chunfang was furious: "You..."
"Mom, I just went to the Public Security Bureau and met that Lu Xiaohua." Ma Xiaoyao said suddenly: "Lu Xiaohua didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, he said that he had beaten you lightly and his attitude was extremely arrogant. What did I say this time?
We must also teach that Lu Xiaohua a lesson!"
"Little comrade, if you have something to say, please speak it carefully and don't get excited..." Lu Dejiang said.
"I have nothing to say to you, please leave now!" Ma Xiaoyao said coldly.
Lu Dejiang turned to look at Zhang Chunfang who was sitting on the hospital bed: "Sister, are you really not going to have an affair?"
"I..." Zhang Chunfang was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ma Xiaoyao.
"Mom, if you still think that I am your son, don't agree to keep it secret." Ma Xiaoyao said word for word: "Mom, don't worry, even if it's not a secret, I will ask Lu Xiaohua to compensate a large sum of money."
It’s money! And I will also put Lu Xiaohua in jail!”
"What a loud tone!" Liu Bing finally couldn't help it anymore and glared at Ma Xiaoyao and said: "The fact that we came to apologize today does not mean that we are afraid of you. We just don't want to make the matter bigger. If we really go through legal procedures,
I have many ways to get Xiaohua acquitted, and... you still won’t get a cent of compensation!”
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "In that case, let's wait and see. I want to see how powerful you are!"
"Okay, in that case, we have nothing to talk about!" After saying that, Liu Bing picked up the envelope containing 30,000 yuan from the hospital bed, and then pulled Lu Dejiang out of the ward.
"Xiaoyao, people have come to apologize proactively, why are you still refusing to forgive me?" Zhang Chunfang said with a frown.
"Because you are my mother, my own mother, and I absolutely cannot watch you get beaten in vain. This time, I must make that Lu Xiaohua pay a heavy price!" Ma Xiaoyao said resolutely.
"Oh...you..." Zhang Chunfang sighed slightly: "I'm not in any serious trouble, why bother making things worse..."
"Mom, just rest in peace and recuperate. I'll go out to do some errands and come back to see you in the evening." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao left the ward. Before leaving, Ma Xiaoyao specifically told Ma Dahai to keep an eye on Zhang Chunfang.
If Lu Xiaohua's family comes to cause trouble again, they will notify him immediately.
…
As soon as he walked out of the hospital gate, Ma Xiaoyao's cell phone vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was Zhang Shan calling. Ma Xiaoyao hesitated and pressed the answer button.
"Hey, Mayor Ma, Lu Xiaohua has been released on bail." As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Shan's anxious voice came out.
"What?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "Lu Xiaohua led the crowd to injure my mother, which constitutes the crime of intentional injury. How can your Public Security Bureau let her be released on bail?"
"It was the order given by our director himself, and I can't stop it." Zhang Shan said helplessly: "I heard that it seemed that Deputy Mayor Sun personally greeted Director Feng, and then Director Feng agreed to Lu Xiaohua's release on bail.
go out……"
"Sun Maoqi really got involved in this matter..." A trace of anger flashed in Ma Xiaoyao's eyes.
"Chief Ma, I'm sorry, I...I couldn't help you..." Zhang Shan said guiltily.
"Vice Captain Zhang, you have already done me a great favor by telling me this news. Thank you." Ma Xiaoyao thanked him.
"We are friends after all, so I should inform you... Mayor Ma, what are you going to do next?" Zhang Shan asked.
Ma Xiaoyao breathed out lightly: "I won't let Lu Xiaohua have an easy time. Vice Captain Zhang, I still have something to do, so let's stop here." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao ended the call and put away the phone.
He strode down the steps.
…
City Hall.
Office of the Executive Vice Mayor.
Sun Maoqi put down the phone and looked up at his secretary Chen Guang: "Okay, the matter is settled. Your relative has been released on bail from the Public Security Bureau."
"Thank you, leader, thank you, leader!" Chen Guang said gratefully.
Sun Maoqi picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Chen Guang, there's only so much I can help you with. You can handle the rest by yourself."
"Hey, I understand, I will take care of it." Chen Guang nodded hurriedly.
"Well, okay, you can go out." Sun Maoqi waved his hand.
Chen Guang responded, backed away and left the office.
After Chen Guang left, Sun Maoqi began to review and approve documents. As the executive deputy mayor, the daily workload was still very heavy, and Sun Maoqi could not sit idle almost every day.
…
Mayor's Office.
"Ma Xiaoyao? Why are you here?" Gu Li asked in surprise.
Ma Xiaoyao came over, pulled out a chair, sat down, and said in a sullen voice: "Sister Gu, my mother was beaten."
"What?" Gu Li raised her eyebrows: "Your mother was beaten? Is the injury serious?"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "It's quite serious, my arm is broken."
"Ah?" Gu Li was surprised: "How is your mother doing now?"
"The treatment was timely and there is nothing serious now. However, it needs to rest for a while. Although the arm has been reattached, it is not as flexible as before." Ma Xiaoyao said.
"What on earth is going on? Why was your mother injured for no reason?" Gu Li asked.
"Alas..." Ma Xiaoyao sighed: "In the final analysis, this was all caused by a small matter. My mother had a quarrel with a colleague named Lu Xiaohua. Afterwards, Lu Xiaohua found some helpers and took me
Mom was beaten..." Ma Xiaoyao simply told what happened.
"Damn it!" Gu Li said angrily: "That Lu Xiaohua is too narrow-minded. Just because of a few quarrels, he found someone to beat your mother, and he did it so hard that he even broke his arm!"
"Yes, that Lu Xiaohua is very hateful." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
"Lv Xiaohua led the crowd to break your mother's arm. This has seriously violated the law and must be severely punished! I will call the Public Security Bureau and ask them to arrest Lu Xiaohua and other accomplices immediately!" After that, Gu
