“Bah! You heartless people, you killed my son and now you want to push me into my grave here. I’m bringing my grandson with me. Even if I die here, I demand justice!”
Granny Sun shouted while holding the child. Lai San tried to persuade her to return to her room, but she spat at him and didn’t allow anyone from the clinic to approach her
Lai San wiped his clothes and grumbled, “It’s hard to stay clean.”
He had been begging for many years, and he was usually covered in dirt.
Manager Qi had only recently accepted him to work in the clinic, and he didn’t want to dirty his clothes.
Seeing Granny Sun about to spit at Manager Qi, he quickly stepped in to block her.
When Su Yingxue witnessed this scene, she understood why Manager Qi had brought Lai San into the clinic.
Granny Sun was vulgar, and the clinic’s apprentices couldn’t handle her. The laborers were also afraid to use force, but Lai San had a way to deal with her.
Granny Sun kept spitting at him, but he wasn’t afraid. He even used some words that left Granny Sun dizzy and calmed her down.
Once she stopped spitting, Lai San allowed Su Yingxue to approach.
Su Yingxue stood in front of Manager Qi. Manager Qi cautioned her, “Miss, be careful. This old lady is very stubborn.”
“It’s okay.” Su Yingxue’s expression remained composed. “Granny Sun, right? Your son is named Sun Wangcai. He’s thirty-one years old this year, and he’s your only son. He has been suffering from tuberculosis for five years and hasn’t been cured, correct?”
Granny Sun’s dark face showed wariness. “Yes, so what? He could have lived to be forty years old, but he ate a medicine from your clinic and died in vain. Your deceitful clinic, return my son…”
As she spoke, she sat down on the ground and began to wail. Her grandson in her arms seemed to react to the scene and cried out for his father.
This situation was causing a headache. Su Yingxue brought over a chair, sat down, and allowed them to cry. She sipped tea while waiting, while Granny Sun and the child were already crying to the point of having dry mouths.
The child tried to reach for the tea in Su Yingxue’s hand, but Granny Sun didn’t stop him. Su Yingxue raised the cup so that he couldn’t reach it. “You think my clinic’s water is safe for your grandson to drink? We have medicines that can harm people.”
Granny Sun had an odd expression. She immediately pulled the child back and held him tightly, refusing to let him drink water no matter how thirsty he was.
“Miss, they had all the food we provided them with yesterday, but Granny Sun is still complaining that there’s no meat, and she’s not satisfied,” Manager Qi whispered in Su Yingxue’s ear.
Su Yingxue smiled faintly. “That’s even more peculiar. If your son died in my clinic, why are you so willing to stay and eat at my clinic? What if you end up dying in my so-called black-hearted clinic? No one will intervene on your behalf.”
Granny Sun seemed uneasy. “There’s the Heavenly Lord in Jiang Du City. Even if I die, someone will stand up for me.” She was resolute.
This attitude only increased Su Yingxue’s suspicion. “You’re quite confident. Who instructed you to use your son’s life to defame the clinic?”
“What defamation! You’re the ones who recklessly killed people with your black-hearted treatments. Do you still call this a clinic? You should open a coffin shop!” Granny Sun yelled menacingly.
She still wanted to rush out with her grandson and confront anyone who stopped her. She maintained a defiant and arrogant demeanor.
Su Yingxue had Lai San at her side, so she didn’t resort to unreasonable tactics.
Once Lai San managed to calm Granny Sun, Su Yingxue spoke slowly, “If you insist on this and refuse to reveal who instructed you, I’ll take you to the Capital Prefecture, where we’ll conduct an autopsy on your son. Let’s see if the capital governor Lord can compel you to speak..”
