Chapter 587 Routines, all routines
It was quiet for a while.
Chen Yun still hadn't figured out what all this was for.
My family has never made any contribution, so it is most likely true that Li Zhenmin paid the medical expenses, but why?
Their family had never known Li Zhenmin before.
Could it be that Li Zhenmin had some plans for their family? But this was obviously impossible. Their family was poor, without any talented people, not even the most basic beauty. Their only daughter was paralyzed, and her appearance was not stunning, right?
But if you don't want anything, why should you help for no reason?
Chen Yun became more and more confused, and then looked at Hu Yunxiu and asked, "Minister Zhang said earlier that the higher-ups were cracking down on corruption, and after learning about our family's situation, he said the state could pay for Caihong's treatment..."
Hu Yunxiu shook her head. "That's impossible. Even if they really care about the people, they won't help you this way. At most, they can help you get justice and arrest the criminals. Maybe you can get some compensation from them, but that money is definitely not enough to treat the paralysis. You know, the most expensive thing about your daughter's condition is not the surgery, but the post-operative convalescence. This is a long process. During this period, she needs to eat well, have regular checkups, and need medication. Most people can't afford it."
Chen Yun's hope was shattered, and he subconsciously asked, "Then... why is this? We don't know your master either? And it has nothing to do with Minister Zhang?"
Hu Yunxiu thought for a moment and asked, "I don't know either. Maybe it has something to do with what happened in your family? Didn't you just say what Minister Zhang is investigating? What on earth happened in your family? Tell me about it and I'll help you analyze it. Maybe I can find some clues from it."
Chen Yun didn't think too much about it. He just knew that it was not a big deal. After all, his family's situation had already been told to others, and it would be no problem to tell Hu Yunxiu again now.
So she told him the whole story.
Hu Yunxiu was shocked when she heard this: "I remember now, Ma Lanlan!"
"Malanlan?" Chen Yun was puzzled.
Hu Yunxiu nodded: "Yes, it's Ma Lanlan. If you hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't have remembered it. The master's brother had a girlfriend two years ago, named Ma Lanlan, and now they are at the stage of discussing marriage. Maybe the master saw something, so he secretly investigated behind the scenes. After all, with his status, he would not let someone with unknown reasons enter the house."
"And it just so happens that Ma Lanlan is most likely the culprit that caused your daughter's current situation. However, because your daughter's current mental state is not suitable and cannot provide reliable evidence, the master paid for your treatment and personally diagnosed you in order to find the real culprit as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Chen Yun suddenly realized.
So that's what happened...
In other words, Li Zhenmin had selfish motives in helping his family. Of course, this selfish motive was good for them.
Chen Yun even had an idea at this time, that is, he hoped that his daughter could keep it like this for a while. Only in this way would Li Zhenmin treat her more wholeheartedly. Otherwise, what if Li Zhenmin was unwilling to pay the subsequent medical expenses once her daughter recovered.
This idea was very immoral, so Chen Yun naturally would not say it out loud. He even felt a little guilty, but self-blame was nothing compared to his daughter's health and the family's financial ability. At most, he could find a way to compensate her after he recovered from the illness.
What she didn't know was that the reason why Hu Yunxiu came here to chat with her today was all planned by Li Zhenmin in advance.
Everything Hu Yunxiu said just now was instructed by Li Zhenmin.
At the beginning, Li Zhenmin's deeds and home address were mentioned to increase Chen Yun and Xiao Caihong's trust. Then the reasons why Li Zhenmin helped were analyzed to let Chen Yun and Xiao Caihong know that his help was not in vain.
Li Zhenmin even had already guessed what Chen Yun would be thinking after Hu Yunxiu said this.
Li Zhenmin always assumes the worst possible outcome for certain things and makes supplements and corrections accordingly.
Seeing that Chen Yun didn't say anything, Hu Yunxiu knew that Li Zhenmin's previous guess was probably correct, but she had a countermeasure, so she continued: "But in my opinion, whether your daughter's condition can be cured has no direct relationship with solving the case?"
Chen Yun was startled and asked nervously, "Doctor Hu, what did you say?"
Hu Yunxiu explained, "With the evidence that Grandmaster has, he can directly interrogate Ma Lanlan. Moreover, the people who attacked your daughter were most likely some street thugs. Even if Ma Lanlan does not plead guilty, we can now set up a heavenly net to hunt down the street thugs who attacked her. We can arrest all the street thugs and interrogate them one by one. We should have results within half a month. I believe Grandmaster has the ability to do this. You know, he has connections with the police station and the military. If he really wants to do it, there is no one he can't catch."
"So, whether your daughter can be cured or not, the matter will be investigated thoroughly. But..."
Having said this, Hu Yunxiu deliberately paused.
Chen Yun was already in a state of confusion, and Hu Yunxiu's hesitation made him collapse. He asked in a pleading manner, "But what?"
"Alas..." Hu Yunxiu sighed and said, "It's just that your daughter's condition is not optimistic. If she gets better as soon as possible, she can help the master as soon as possible. In this way, you have played a certain role in helping him. Maybe you can even be friends in the future. What a pity..."
"It's obvious that your daughter won't be able to recover in a short period of time, at least not before the case is solved. So even though the master is a soft-hearted person and will still pay for your medical expenses, that's probably all. It's unlikely that you will take the next step with him..."
"Actually, my situation is similar to yours, so I'm telling you these things, but my situation is better than yours. I was lucky enough to grab that fleeting opportunity and have the chance to show my abilities. As a result, I became a disciple and a registered disciple of the master. Then, with hard work, I became a full disciple, and finally I achieved what I have today..."
"Alas, I thought it was a very lucky thing for you to meet the master. Now that I think about it, it is indeed lucky. After all, the leg should be able to be cured. It's just a matter of time. But the opportunity to make further progress has been stuck at this juncture..."
"How should I put it? It's a blessing with regrets. But as a human being, perhaps a simple life is the best. Maybe your daughter doesn't want to learn anything from my master. Everyone has their own aspirations. It's enough to live a comfortable life. There's no need to pursue anything blindly."
Hu Yunxiu said this, but in fact she was irritating Chen Yun and Xiao Caihong with her words.
This was the real purpose of her staying and saying so much today, just to pull at the emotions of Chen Yun and Xiao Caihong, and give him some hope while warning him.
As she spoke, she was also observing the changes in Xiao Caihong's expression. If Xiao Caihong was really stupid, then it wouldn't have any counterproductive effect.
But if Xiao Caihong is sober, then according to Li Zhenmin's speculation, a repressed person like her would most likely want to make progress and would not want to be threatened and bullied any longer. Once there is an opportunity, she would most likely desperately grab it!
You know, a person who can pretend to be crazy and stupid for many years must be a person with a very strong heart. The longer he stays in the darkness and the more desperate he is, the stronger he will be.
If there had been no hope, she might have remained silent, and no one would have known what had happened to her until she died.
But once you see a glimmer of light in despair, you may not take action at first due to caution, and may choose to wait and see first. But if you think it is feasible, you will choose to give it a try no matter what!
After all, what if you lose?
Could it be worse than before?
Li Zhenmin taught Hu Yunxiu to say these things, taking advantage of this point. Hu Yunxiu was a messenger, but at the same time he also learned and understood a lot of truths in the process.
As for whether he will really help Xiao Caihong afterwards, that still needs to be examined. After all, people who have experienced darkness and despair, in addition to working hard and being grateful, will also show another extreme, that is, they will not trust anyone, will directly become evil, and will even regard those who help them as stepping stones.
