1652 Help Them
“It’s those people who have ulterior motives! It has nothing to do with you. Besides, those people from the Zhao Family Village have already paid the price. This matter is over, so let’s not think about it anymore,” Qiao Mei said as she patted Li Gui’s hand.
Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe looked at each other. They did not know how to handle this matter. Li Gui was the person involved, so they wanted to hear her thoughts.
“Mom, he and his wife were kidnapped by those people after that. His wife’s pregnancy is unstable at the moment. I’ve asked them to stay in the VIP ward to recuperate. We’ll pay for all the expenses,” Qiao Mei said.
“Yes! It’s what we should do! I’ll go and visit them now!” Li Gui flipped the blanket and wanted to get out of bed to go and look at Ding Xiang and Zhao Fei when Qiao Mei stopped her.
“Mom! Ding Xiang is not in a very good condition now. Other than the doctor and Zhao Fei who can go in to take care of her, no one else can go in. Otherwise, it’s not good for the baby,” Qiao Mei explained.
Li Gui sighed and said, “Sigh… They’re good kids, yet they have to suffer because of me! Qiao Mei, we must help them! We can’t be people who don’t repay kindness!”
“I know, but I don’t know how to repay them for their kindness. Mom, how can we do that?” Qiao Mei asked.
“Sigh… Actually, I already have an idea. I heard that Zhao Fei doesn’t have a proper job yet and he can’t go into business in his condition now. I’m thinking of letting him work in the factory but I don’t know if you will agree. We can just give him an unimportant position, one that is good enough for him to earn some money to support his family,” Li Gui said.
No matter what, Zhao Fei had worked with her for a period of time. This kid was kind-hearted and a fast worker. It was his family members who were the problem. Even though Zhao Fei had completely cut ties with the Zhao family by now, blood was still thicker than water. If anything happened to the Zhao family one day, Zhao Fei would definitely go back to help.
Although they could not be business partners with Zhao Fei anymore, they could give him a stable job so that he could support his family and ensure that Ding Xiang and their child did not have to worry about their daily expenses.
“Sure. You can do whatever you want with regard to staffing in the factory. You don’t have to come and ask me,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
“That won’t do! Qian’e said that you’re the… the chairman! All the important matters need to be run through you before we can proceed,” Li Gui said seriously.
Xia Zhe stood at the side and chuckled secretly. Seeing that Qiao Mei had become the boss, he felt quite good being the “lady boss”!
Xia Zhe went to the cashier to settle the hospital fees for Li Gui, Liu Fen and Ding Xiang for the past few days. Qiao Mei helped Li Gui pack up the things in the room. Before she left, she also went to take a look at Liu Fen, who was sleeping. It was a good thing that Liu Fen was asleep, otherwise Liu Fen also would not know how to face Qiao Mei and the rest.
“Mom, you guys go to the car first. I’ll go and take a look at them from the door,” Qiao Mei said as she pointed at Ding Xiang’s ward.
Xia Zhe supported Li Gui as they slowly made their way downstairs. Qiao Mei quietly made her way to the door of Ding Xiang’s ward. Ding Xiang seemed to look better, but her health was not good to begin with. Coupled with the fact that she had been exhausted during this period of time, Xia Fang had told Qiao Mei that she was concerned that Ding Xiang would not be able to hold on to the baby.
Qiao Mei looked at the small glass bottle in her hand. It was filled with ginseng juice that was blood-red in color. She thought it was a good idea to let Ding Xiang try out the medicinal properties of this ginseng juice. It was a right fit for a weak person like Ding Xiang.
“Qiao Mei? Why are you here!” Zhao Fei said agitatedly.
“I’m here to take a look at her and to talk to you about something,” Qiao Mei said sternly.
“Is it about Ding Xiang’s condition? I’ve already heard from your aunt… I roughly know the condition of her health. I’m already mentally prepared and I’ve already come to an agreement with Doctor Xia. We have decided not to keep this child… Keeping the child will threaten Ding Xiang’s life. I can’t risk her life,” Zhao Fei said in a low voice.
“This is for you. Mix it with water and give it to Ding Xiang later. It’s good for her health. Here’s 500 dollars from my mother. It’s to buy supplements for Ding Xiang to nourish her body,” Qiao Mei said as she handed him the glass bottle and the money.
