Title: Su Yu’s Promotion Record in the ‘60s
Translator: Fuyu
Chapter 45 - This cruel and unscrupulous lot, none of them reliable! (2)
"I'm a kind person, but my health is too poor. I do want to forgive her, but I was beaten and frightened. I exhausted my strength to run from her. This's a great loss. You guys also know that I only came out of the hospital a few days ago. The doctor said I need to rest and recuperate. In order to help me recover, our family took out all our wealth. I finally got better today, and now there's a loss. I'm a person who wants to work. Now that there's a delay, what can I do? I won't mention the other stuff, but I definitely won't get chosen as a model worker this year."
"You weren't chosen as a model worker in previous years either," Liu Daqiang retorted.
Su Yu rolled her eyes at him. "That was the past. My current performance is pretty good. I'm focusing and striving to do my best. Now that Old Lady Liu has caused such harm to me, I've lost all hope…" She covered her face and sobbed.
The Liu family: "..."
They had a headache.
Liu Mei's oldest sister-in-law knew that Su Yu wouldn't let them off easily and simply asked, "What do you want to do then?"
"Of course I want to forgive you guys, but my forgiveness is conditional on me being able to fully recuperate, be able to go back to work in the factory and contribute to it, and earn money to support my younger siblings. After all, after my parents passed away, I became the pillar of my family."
They understood her meaning. So she wanted compensation from them.
This person was too shameless. She just fainted and wanted compensation. She wasn't even badly bruised.
"No way!" Liu Dayong angrily said.
Su Yu rolled her eyes. With a hand on her chest, she screamed, "Aiyo, my chest hurts. My head hurts. The pain must be from Old Lady Liu beating me today."
Hearing the scream, the public security officer ran inside. Seeing Su Yu's pained appearance, she immediately asked the doctor to come over, then she pointed at the others. "Did you hit her?"
"No… No." Liu Dayong showed his hands.
The other members of the Liu family shook their heads.
Su Yu weakly said, "They didn't hit me. It's probably residual pain."
"Don't upset the patient," the doctor said, "Her body is weak. Speak well and don't kick up a fuss. Even if you want to reconcile with her, there's no need for so many people to be here."
The public security officer glared at Liu Dayong and Liu Daqiang. It was so shameless for two big men to come here to bully a woman. If this was the old society, they would definitely be b*stards that acted tyrannically.
Liu Dayong and Liu Daqiang shivered.
Wronged, Liu Dayong said, "I didn't do anything to upset her. She wants us to pay her compensation. She's too wicked!"
Su Yu was strenuously breathing. Upon hearing these words, she shed tears. "I don't want to adversely affect anyone either, but my family truly can't afford to pay the medical expenses. And, I'll need to recuperate. That's a loss in my family's income too. I'm so unlucky to meet this unexpected disaster. I got bullied just walking on the streets. Never mind that I suffer, but I can't let my younger siblings bear these losses. Their lives have been so hard in the past years… This is the new society, they have the right to a happy life…"
The public security officer felt bad for Su Yu. This comrade was still suffering in the new society. She looked at the Liu family and said, "Under normal circumstances, it's necessary to pay the victim's medical expenses and nutritional supplement expenses. There has to be a consequence to beating someone."
The Liu family: "..."
Liu Dayong and Liu Daqiang didn't dare to speak. After all, their family was the one in the wrong in this matter. Who could have anticipated that their mother would go cause trouble?
Liu Dayong tugged on his wife's sleeve. His wife had a better understanding of family affairs and how to handle it.
Liu Mei's oldest sister-in-law felt depressed. Her mother-in-law had caused trouble for Liu Mei's sake, but they were the ones that had to clean up her mess. Such an injustice! Nevertheless, she had to fix it.
"We'll definitely pay. We'll do what we should. We definitely won't wrong her."
In front of the public security officer, Su Yu settled everything. In addition to paying for the medical expenses, they had to give Su Yu money and tickets, so she could eat nutritional supplements during her recuperation period. If Su Yu couldn't go to work, they had to pay her for her loss in wages.
The Liu family calculated. My god, this was simply a bottomless pit.
