Chapter 152 Adoption or Returning to the Hometown?
Because Ding Dawang is blind, he is exceptionally sensitive.
He becomes extremely wary whenever a stranger approaches.
Even when the nurses wanted to give him an injection, Ye Nuan had to coax him from the side.
Otherwise, if Ding Dawang doesn't cooperate, the injection can't be administered.
Because of this, Ye Nuan stayed in the hospital for three consecutive days.
When they get tired, they just stay in the duty room.
Gu Hanchuan delivered meals to them twice, but he was too busy with work to visit them again. However, he still reminded Ye Nuan to take care of her health and not to overwork herself.
Ding Dawang was moved to a regular ward, and Ye Nuan could finally catch her breath.
The hospital has nurses to take care of Ding Dawang's daily life, so Ding Dawang's parents did not come.
At first, Ding Dawang was somewhat surprised, but later he actually felt fortunate.
If they come, they'll definitely blame themselves.
What Ding Dawang didn't know was that Zhang Dazhu and Liu Xiangwen didn't come because they were being investigated by their superiors.
The situation is terrible!
Ding Dawang's private parts are now bandaged. Duan Gang personally applied the medicine and then wrapped them with gauze. It won't affect his ability to use the toilet, but it will feel a little awkward.
When the doctors met, they determined that the injury was not serious. It was because it was discovered in time that it was treated properly. If it had been delayed for another ten days or half a month, the outcome would have been uncertain.
With such a serious matter at hand, Jiang Changzhou could not simply let the culprit off the hook.
Zhang Dazhu and his son and daughter were interrogated separately, especially about who bullied Ding Dawang more, who splashed the boiling water, and why the chicks were swollen, etc.
If Zhang Dazhu has good mental fortitude, then the two children only need a simple scare to tell him everything.
Liu Xiangwen initially denied everything, but later, when the investigation team presented evidence and learned that Zhang Dabao insisted that she was the one who poured the hot water, she could no longer hold back and confessed everything.
Zhang Dazhu did not do anything to harm Ding Dawang.
He neither hit nor cursed at them, but he simply chose to ignore them.
More accurately, he saw everything Ding Dawang suffered at home, but he just watched helplessly, without caring, asking questions, or paying attention.
This is tantamount to condoning!
This kind of person is even more ruthless and disgusting than someone who personally beat Ding Dawang.
Ding Dawang hadn't even been discharged from the hospital when the decision regarding Zhang Dazhu's case came down from above.
They'll just let him retire from the military; they won't even arrange a transfer for him.
This was unacceptable to Zhang Dazhu.
He served in the army for so many years. Although his rank was not high, he must have worked hard even if he didn't achieve great things.
Why were they just let me leave the military like that?
Over the years, all he's ever done is drills and shooting; he's completely forgotten how to farm!
But there's nothing he can do; the decision from above won't be changed just because he's unwilling.
Actually, this is already the best possible outcome.
If it weren't for Zhang Dazhu's previous good performance, the higher-ups wouldn't have let it go so easily.
Liu Xiangwen abused her own child, and Zhang Dazhu's children abused his stepbrother. If this gets out, I don't know how many people will target Zhang Dazhu's family and make sure they are sent to a labor camp!
Zhang Dazhu only realized that this was the lightest possible punishment after a fellow villager came over and gave him this analysis.
At least, he can still take his wife and children back to his hometown.
They wouldn't have to go to a forest farm or the Northwest to suffer.
The outcome of the case against Zhang Dazhu's family has been decided, but the question of Ding Dawang's future has become a problem.
Ding Dawang is still in the hospital. Zhang Dazhu paid 100 yuan for him earlier, and the medical expenses are not yet exhausted, but Ding Dawang is still blind.
Therefore, one hundred yuan is definitely not enough.
After finishing a bowl of sweet potato porridge, Gu Hanchuan let out a burp and then slowly said, "Uncle Jiang's idea is to have them write a letter severing ties, so that Ding Dawang will have no relation to them anymore. And Ding Dawang's household registration will not follow Liu Xiangwen."
"But Dawang is just a child, so his household registration can only follow his mother!"
This is a household registration regulation.
However, there are loopholes in the current household registration management system.
"The idea from above is to keep Dawang in the army. The school can arrange a dormitory for him, and he can eat in the canteen. Anyway, he will be attending classes at the school. We have primary and junior high schools here. By the time Dawang finishes junior high, he will be quite old. If he wants to continue to high school, he can go to the city to study. If he doesn't want to, he can also consider finding a job."
Ye Nuan shook her head: "Then where should his household registration be?"
These days, without a house, you can't register your household registration.
But neither Ding Er in the past nor Zhang Dazhu in the future met the requirements for their families to accompany them to the military. Therefore, they were not allocated housing in the military and had no housing outside. How could they register their household registration?
"The quartermaster said there was a lame old man in the canteen who was wounded in the war and retired later, but he didn't want to go back to his hometown, saying there was no one left there, so he stayed to work in the canteen. He hadn't gotten married when he was wounded because half of his face was disfigured, and good girls didn't want him. He gradually lost the desire to find someone, so the leader's idea was to let him be adopted by Ding Dawang."
"Adoption?"
That's a possibility.
"Will Liu Xiangwen agree?"
Gu Hanchuan sneered: "She doesn't want to agree! But can she refuse? After causing such a huge mess, if she doesn't agree, she'll have to take responsibility for Ding Dawang for the rest of her life. Do you think she'll agree?"
Don't think that everything will be fine just because you're back in your hometown. The military will coordinate with the local authorities and check on you every ten days to two weeks. If they find the Zhang family abusing Ding Dawang, they'll send him directly to the forest farm. Do you think that family can handle that?
Ye Nuan remained silent.
She didn't know who came up with this method, but she felt it was only good for scaring people. If it were actually implemented, it probably wouldn't last more than two years.
“Dawang is unable to continue attending school now, and living in the dormitory is not feasible for him, as he is blind and any bumps or falls would be serious problems.”
"That's why I suggested that the lame old man adopt him."
"Did Da Wang agree?"
"Not yet, I guess I'll have to go and discuss it with him tomorrow. Old Six is quite happy, though. He said that half of his face is scary, but now that he has a blind son, he doesn't have to worry about scaring the child anymore."
Ye Nuan grinned. Was this some kind of self-consolation?
"Dawang is quite sensitive right now, but I have to say that there is still hope for Dawang's eyes to recover. It may take a week, or two or three months, or even one or two years."
Gu Hanchuan said proudly, "My wife is amazing!"
Ye Nuan rolled her eyes, then suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Da Wang said he saw Zhang Dabao with a gun, a real gun, but he's sure it wasn't Zhang Dazhu's!"
