Begonia thinks about it over and over again, and after a few turns, she still feels that it wouldn't work.
Begonia first goes to the RV to wake up Sophie. Seeing that the steamed buns she bought in the morning are still there, she tells Sophie to stay in the car and not go out, and she wants to go find Elaine by herself.
Maybe the dipress mood of Begonia makes Sophie has a premonition, she grabs Begonia's clothes tightly and refuses to let her go.
There is no choice, Begonia could only carry Sohpie down the RV, checkes the route, and prepares to go outside to take the bus.
"Girl, what are you doing!"
Although there are several flower farmers cooperating with Elaine, the one who speaks to Begonia is actually the leader.
This is also a female.
She is almost 60 years old. When she was young, she and her husband grew flowers together. After her husband died, she rebuilt the original base by herself. Elaine said several times that she is a straightforward person.
Begonia does not hide it and tells about her plan to go find Elaine.
The clothes are thick in winter, so Sophie slips down a little. Begonia hugs her up. She is not in good physical condition, so she is a little out of breath.
"Why don't you drive?"
The old woman is surprised that Begonia walkes out by herself carrying the child but not to drive the RV.
"No drive licence?"
Begonia smiled bitterly. "I've been in a car accident and I can't touch the steering wheel after that! Doctors call it PTSD!"
The old woman nods. Although she doesn't understand what this problem is, but in her age there always something new, so she is used to it.
"It's inconvenient to bring a child with you. Come on, I'll take you there!"
Before Begonia could say anything, several women nearby who have been staring at Begonia couldn't help but step forward and grab the old man.
"Why are you getting involved with them? Didn't you see that the live broadcast said that the woman was a mistress?"
"I think you look like a mistress! I've known Elaine for a long time. If she is willing to do this kind of thing, why should shee still work hard every day! Stop talking nonsense all day long. It's better to take care of your own man than anything else! Go to work! I pay you not because you can grind your teeth! Go!"
After saying that, she pats the flower leaves on her trouser legs with her gloves and askes Begonia to follow her. "Let's go!"
Thanks to a kind-hearted person, Begonia finally feels a little more comfortable and gets ot the bar in the small car.
Begonia bents down to thank the kind old woman again, then runs into the bar in a hurry.
The old woman, however, is not in a hurry to leave. She looks outside and makes a phone call before slowly following Begonia into the bar.
It is not yet time for the bar to accept customers, but there are already some people sitting inside.
In the corner, Begonia sees the tall Elaine at a glance.
The man sitting opposite to Elaine with his legs crossing and a cigarette in his mouth is Jay who is chasing Elaine, the owner of the bar.
Elaine has known Jay for a while. It all started when a rich second-generation wanted to pursue his girlfriend. He lended Jay's venue to organize a fancy party and insisted on using 9,999 roses to make the party more romantic. In the end, this job fell to Elaine.
Elaine came to the scene to arrange the scene, and that's how she met Jay.
Jay was attracted by Elaine's beauty, but Elaine ignored him at first.
However, Jay thought for a moment and gave Elaine a few business orders. Elaine had to make money, and after a few visits, the two of them got to know each other.
Jay is a real villain and can't pretend for long.
He told Elaine clearly that he wanted her to be his mistress, saying that the one he married at home disgusted him, but he could not divorce for the sake of his son. He felt empty, lonely and cold alone. As long as Elaine was willing to follow her, she would buy any bags she wanted, would not have to work, and would have 50,000 in pocket money every month.
Elaine was so disgusted that she immediately blocked the person.
But she didn't expect that Jay would turn against her and even resort to force.
At this time, Sam and a few other people are surrounding the innermost box in a rogue manner. Begonia couldn't see clearly the situation of Elaine who has her back to her, but Jay's smug look is really disgusting.
Begonia is afraid that something might happen to Elaine, so she quickly picks up Sohpie and walks inside.
But whatever you fear will come true.
Begonia hears Elaine shoutting, "You are just atrracted my face, and without this you will find no interest!"
Then the sound of a wine bottle breaking is heard.
The broken bottle with sharp ends makes everyone nervous.
When running, Begonia knows something is wrong and prays Elaine not to be impulsive or do anything stupid.
Over there, Elaine is seen holding a half-broken wine bottle with a sharp edge, and she just scratched it towards her face!
A bleeding long scar cutted by Elaine shows on her face.
Begonia is almost disappointed!
"What are you doing? You guys! Take out your ID cards!"
When everyone is stunned by Elaine's resolute action, the voice of the police is suddenly heard at the door.
Jay and Sam don't usually do many good things, and the policeman who come in is the one in charge of this area. How could Jay and the others not recognize this face!
Jay quickly bows his head and greets whith police coming in.
Begonia doesn't care about anything else and rushs over to look at Elaine who is covering her face. Without looking closely, bright red blood was flowing from between Elaine's fingers. Begonia could only hold Sophie's head and let her lie on her shoulder to avoid seeing Elaine's miserable appearance.
"Are you stupid?"
Begonia is almost pissed off by Elaine.
"Your body and hair are given by your parents. What you are doing will only make your relatives sad and your enemies happy. You don't think before you act! Do you want to contribute to the hospital because you have money but nowhere to spend it?"
Elaine grimaces in pain, yet still dares to joke with Begonia.
"Okay, now we're all alive and well and in the hospital, so there shouldn't be any bad luck anymore!"
"Did you call the police?"
"Hello! I'll take you to the hospital for treatment, and then we'll have to take a statement!"
Begonia and Elaine are a little confused!
"It wasn't me who called the police!"
"Didn't you call the police?"
"I reported it!" The old woman who brought Begonia here walks over slowly.
"You two girls dare to fight with these big men in the bar. You really deserve a beating from society. You even cut your face. Do you think those scumbags are afraid of you? What era is this? Don't you know to call the police if there is a problem?"
The old woman turns around.
"This is my nephew. Don't worry, he's a good kid and a policeman. Go and treat her wound quickly. I'll take the little sister back to you. Find me at the base!"
It must be said that Begonia and Elaine have not felt the warmth of society for a long time. Even today, they both feel like fighting for their lives.
But, when there are really kind people protecting us, the world doesn't seem so bad?
Along the way, the policeman named Eason doesn't say a word, but he drives the police car very fast and steadily. In just over ten minutes, he drives into a community hospital.
"The doctor inside is my uncle. He is a very good doctor, especially good at external injuries. We all come to him for external injuries. He won't leave scars. Besides, you can trust me for that."
Sure enough, the treatment of acquaintances is different.
As soon as Eason entered, the nurse at the door and several elderly people who are seeing the doctor greet him warmly.
You know what, when Eason smiles, he shows eight standard teeth, his lips are red and his teeth are white, he looks like a teenager and has the integrity of a policeman, he is definitely the ideal son-in-law in the eyes of the aunt. The key is that he is quite active, greeting everyone like Uncle, Aunt, and Sister, it is no wonder that he is so popular.
With the help of the acquaintance, Elaine's wound is also very urgent, so she is cutted in line by Eason's special treatment and sees the doctor immediately.
Seeing the deep and fierce scratch on Elaine's face, Begonia couldn't help but hits her on the spot.
"Doctor, can this scar heal?" It is still a duet. Begonia looked at Eason who asks the same question as her, and think to herself, this policeman is really a good person.
Doctor frowns a little and answers their questions with his action.
Elaine is given an injection of anesthetic, and then three stitches are sewn on her cheek. Then a layer of medicine is applied, and a skin patch the same color as the skin is applied.
Doctor looks at people through the gap above his glasses at the far end of his nose, and he is still looking at Eason. He even reaches out and points at him, but no one except Eason really understands what he means.
He quickly writes a prescription and hands it to Begonia.
"In a moment, go to the pharmacy in front and pick up the medicine according to this list. If there are anti-inflammatory medicines, take them according to the instructions. And this skin patch, change it every 24 hours, it is not afraid of water, and when you change it, apply the ointment inside. Come over every three days and I'll check on you, understand?"
Begonia quickly takes it and nods.
"What should I pay attention to when eating..."
"Ask him!" Doctor points at Eason and shouts with full energy. "Next!"
Begonia takes every medicine under doctor's instruction but without paying the fee. Since Eason says he has an account here for this kind of situation.
Elaine doesn't want to own his favor but Eason is insisted.
Elaine is given anesthesia at this time, so she doesn't feel much pain. She feels a little listless and wants to speak, but shranks back when Begonia glares at her.
"You have a wound on your face, no matter what you want to say, just shut up! Be obedient and heal the wound quickly, ok?"
Eason, who is driving in front, glanced in the rearview mirror at Elaine, who seems unusually well-behaved and obedient after being scolded by Begonia, and something flashs in his eyes.
"My colleague has just taken a statement from the bar. Jay from the bar said that he just wanted to be friend with you. But we also checked the records. Jay is married. So if you want to sue him for provoking trouble or other crimes, I can help you file a case! Or you can also reconcile, and we can coordinate for him to pay compensation."
Begonia lookes at Elaine. Only Elaine has the right to decide how to deal with this matter.
Elaine thinks about it, and finally makes a cross gesture to Begonia, then points to the wound on her face, and then points at Eason who is driving.
Begonia ponders for a moment. "You mean, don't sue him! But let him pay the medical expenses to Doctor? Is that right?"
Elaine nods.
If it were Begonia who has gone through what happened before, she would definitely have chosen to sue, and she would have sued to the end to teach people like Jay a lesson.
However, Begonia now as a person who has experienced so much, knows very well that that straight way is the idea of past simple Begonia, who was rich and had free time.
Begonia, who has no money and no time, will do the same as Elaine and try to keep things quiet!
Eason doesn't make a judgement maybe because he had seen too many similar things before, so he doesn't try to persuade her much.
"I think after this incident, Jay has been taught a lesson by us, and he won't bother you again. Also, please remember my cell phone number..."
Elaine and Begonia quickly take out their cell phones to record the number.
"You can come to me if you encounter similar things in the future, or for other things."
When Eason smiles, his teeth are white and his eyes are bright and dazzling.
"Although I'm an economic investigation officer, I'm familiar with the entire police system. I can help with anything!"
It seems that he is too enthusiastic and maybe afraid of scaring people.
Eason adds, "You are my aunt's friends, so we are all friends, don't be hesitate. By the way..."
"I hear from my aunt that someone is disrupting the live broadcast before?"
Speaking of this, Begonia becomes angry.
"Yes, police officer, can we call the police to arrest her? Isn't it said that the Internet is not a lawless place? Doesn't she have to bear legal responsibility for spreading rumors?"
Eason nods. "Don't worry, I'll ask my colleagues to look at those IP addresses and see if we can find the mastermind behind this."
Begonia and Elaine hold hands together. It would be great if this matter could be resolved!
Eason looks at Elaine somewhat embarrassedly in the rearview mirror.
"Elaine, can you give me your phone number?"
Elaine doesn't dare to speak. She raises her eyebrows and tiltes her head to look at Eason.
"Ah, although you don't plan to sue and accept the coordination, you are injured after all. We will need to contact you in case of any situation."
Although Elaine feel it is a bit strange, he is a policeman after all, so she just gives it to him since cell phone numbers are flying around so freely these days.
Arriving at the flower base, Elaine solemnly thanks the old woman.
For all the help she gave, asking the police to help them, standing up for her in front of others, and taking care of Sophie, Elaine simply doesn't know how to express her gratitude.
"Alright, go back and heal the wound on your face quickly. The live broadcast still needs you as a face! Don't be afraid of things. At my age, I know that there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome. I also hope that you can sell more flowers for me. I also want to earn more pocket money! I have prepared the meal, come in and eat! There is no soy sauce, so you can just boil it!"
Although there are many hardships in this world, we are fortunate to meet good people!
Begonia and Elaine feel the warmth in the homely atmosphere of the old woman's room.
